I Am Supreme - Chapter 887

Chapter 887




In the midst of the conversation, the thing that caught him by surprise was the other matter that Yun Yang had mentioned .

"You'll help me heal? In three days?"

Shi Wuchen's eyes were wide with curiousity .

Shi Wuchen was not all too surprised at Yun Yang's plan of making him his top henchman . After all, his cultivation base was right there, sitting idle — he should be contributing to the sect since he was already a member of it . At the same time, it could not possibly come as a surprise to him that Yun Yang had volunteered to heal him — he would only be able to unleash his full strength if his wounds took a turn for the better . That must be what he had intended, and it was a perfectly reasonable gesture .

In actual fact, Shi Wuchen was utterly shocked by the fact that Yun Yang had sworn to heal him in three days!

With the powers of the ground meridian, my wounds had only restored thirty percent of its full capacity after three years of recuperation, and here you are, offering to cure me in three days — do you think I'd believe you?

Like hell, I would!

However, following a trickle of life essence that had been injected into his body, Shi Wuchen obediently shut his mouth, his face swimming with emotions .

Since it's happening now before my eyes, no matter how ludicrous it sounded, I need to place complete faith in it!

As his actual cultivation base was already at the Saint Level, it was no surprise that he was a man who knew his stuff . "This… this wouldn't happen to be… innate essence, would it?" He asked carefully .



With a dash of this perfectly pure life force, it was enough to suppress all the negative side effects of his aches and pains . He no longer had any worries to care about — he only had to focus on cultivating and recuperating .

Being able to restore seventy percent of his strength in a day was a highly probable feat . By the looks of it, complete restoration in the days to come was not a problem at all — it could even be deemed as a guaranteed outcome .

If… if I manage to retain a bit of this mysterious essence and allow my body to use it to strengthen my cultivation base, perhaps, it might even be helpful in achieving more future breakthroughs in my cultivation journey!

This… this is practically a blessing from the heavens . It was a pie from the skies, a wonderful thing indeed!

Suddenly, Shi Wuchen felt that joining the Residence of Nine Supremes was not too much of a bad thing after all . Instead, it was an opportunity for him to journey further into his path of cultivation .

In truth, he had already been entertaining thoughts of joining a sect . Even if Yun Yang had not solicited him today, he would have most likely gone with the flow if someone else had sought him out — as long as they were suitable .

After all these years, after going through the annihilation of his family, his life had been hanging on the line as he constantly drifted from one place to another, soliciting many karmic repercussions in the process . After all, to survive in the martial world, it was impossible to live without making enemies and forming feuds; countless enemies had gone after him to the point where he had nowhere to hide, and he, who had no assistance at all, had long felt that his lone strength was too feeble .


Yun Yang's invitation was exactly what he wanted .

Otherwise, even if it was a chore to break Yun Yang's cloud form, as long as he did not mind the damage and possibly aggravate his existing injuries, he could forcefully summon Heaven and Earth Cage . Considering the actual difference between him and Yun Yang, Yun Yang may very well be defeated here from the unexpected and swift change .



Furthermore, any wound could be suppressed with Shi Wuchen's cultivation levels as long as he could lay his hands on the Ethereal Amethyst, and he could continue to heal himself progressively .

Therefore, instead of saying that their fight was completely set up by Yun Yang, Shi Wuchen had gone along with it willingly by playing his part . Just like how Xi Menqing had seduced Pan Jinlian, the latter was just playing hard to get — deep down in her bones, she was actually willing to go along with it . Of course, they were completely infatuated with each other in the end, hooking up… and doing all sort of things!

Yet, in wake of the fight with Yun Yang, the only thing Shi Wuchen thought of during the moment he resigned himself to compromise was this; Alas, finally, we are men who now belonged to an organization . Although the accountability of this group of ours is questionable, I still can deal with it with my best efforts if someone comes knocking and tries to pick a fight . At the very least, if I can't deal with them, I wouldn't blatantly pay for it with my life . I will prioritize this humble life of mine over anything else — I shall act according to the circumstances before me and not flaunt my superiority . Supreme Cloud — that little chap — is not a simple man at all . That odd ability of his that allows him to stay alive really takes quite some skill .

After witnessing Yun Yang cast the formation, another realization dawned within his heart; besides being blessed with a unique style of combat art, his body was miraculously intriguing, and he was even well-versed in casting formations . He is truly an unparalleled genius — there was even a possibility that he and I could carve out a whole new universe together if I went with him .

As for the fact that Yun Yang had completely healed the wounds that he himself could not heal for three years, Shi Wuchen only could heave a sincere sigh of relief in his heart .

Before the start of everything, he had already been showered with benefits from a stranger; it would hardly be fair if he still harbored any doubts . He wholeheartedly decided to stay — if he ever encountered real danger, the only thing he would do was to fight for his life .

If he still harbored the thought of escaping at any time in the wake of such loyalty and sincere treatment, deep down in his heart, he knew that he would deem such a dilemma as those of an uncultured man!

As soon as this thought materialized, he suddenly felt as if he had finally thought through the entire dilemma, feeling his entire body relax, finally at ease .

Shi Wuchen felt entirely at ease physically and mentally as he reached this realization, yet he felt that there seemed to be a development with his surroundings . Upon further inspection, he found the thick spiritual Qi that shrouded his being seemed to have increased by a large degree . "Boss, what sort of God-sent boon did you add to the fundamentals of this formation? How can it be so effective?" He could not restrain himself from asking .

Shi Wuchen would never believe Yun Yang that it was just "some rare, crystallized energy" .

"It's just something common that I happen to have a lot of," Yun Yang was obviously still reluctant to tell the truth . "If there is a chance, I'll tell you next time, when the proper results are shown . "

Not that I'm not telling you, it is really just something very common, something that I have a lot of!

Although it was neither a lie nor an exaggeration to Yun Yang, and it was nothing but the truth, it sounded extremely ridiculous!

Bloody hell, are you actually saying that Ethereal Amethysts are common, and you have a lot of them? Even if that was the truth, you probably shouldn't even say it so casually! Aren't you afraid that you'll be hacked to death for letting on too much?

Shi Wuchen nodded his head uncertainly . "Since it's just the usual stuff, then I won't inquire further . "

He was an understanding and transparent man . It was only the early stages of their acquaintance, and there was no need to engage in deep conversation when their bond was not that strong yet . There was still plenty of time and a long way to go, so why make a fuss out of this?

…

At the same time, Qian Duoduo had transformed into an affluent young master who was participating in an auction . He crossed one leg over the other in an arrogant manner, exuding a refined air as if he hailed from a privileged background .

"If it wasn't because of the decline in my household, why would I even be here, procuring such treasures?" The little fatty said, his sighs displaying slight hints of sadness .

"My first and second uncle had thrown themselves into a life of debauchery, not attending to their responsibilities… sigh, what's more, they have recently been infected with sexual diseases…"

"Now, the survival of the entire household has fallen onto me and only me; what a hard life indeed! We, a clan who has enjoyed a five-thousand-year legacy, are eventually doomed for decline after all… talking about it really makes me feel ashamed . "

"However, no matter how hard it is, we'll never have such a mystical ancestral piece sold at a cheap price . If the price proposed by your reputed house isn't suitable, we'll never make a move . No matter how dire our situation is, our five-thousand-year old clan is still able to endure this tiny bit of hardship . "

The staff of the auction house was speechless and helpless, even as they remained indifferent .

"If these are to be auctioned… will we have a deal with the default price quotation? How does that sound?"

"Well, not that it's not possible, but besides the shocking price we're dealing at, auctioning such a treasure would definitely give your reputation a boost . If we break all that down, that makes the advantage to your side simply even more than before — wages cannot be calculated in the usual manner . "

"Most auctioneers would take a commission of ten percent . Besides writing off this commission, all you have to do is give me an extra hundred pieces of top-grade spiritual jade - I'm not a greedy man, so I won't pick on the rest . Well, your house, your rules — I suppose I have to give in a little since I'm under your roof . Look at me, a man from a reclusive clan of a five-thousand-year ancestry who has endured countless hardships and has overseen the coming and going of worldly events, yet here we are, in our decline due to some worthless, good-for-nothing descendants . Here am I, selling off ancestral treasures to keep us alive…"

The men of the auction house had to restrain themselves from fainting simultaneously .

What the hell?

So, besides the fact that we'll be earning nothing, we're supposed to compensate your losses willingly?

Why does this sound like you're suffering a massive loss, and we're the ones bestowed with a deal of a lifetime?

How the hell did you even come up with what you're saying? On one hand, you said you came from a clan with a five-thousand-year legacy, and at the very next moment, you're saying you've endured all forms of hardship . If you have such gutsy confidence, why don't you simply break the heavens apart — what are you even doing here, selling off ancestral property?
