The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3252 - 3247: Ancestral Secret Treasure_1

Yang Chen declared, "I'll trade that treasure for the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag and the six individuals from Fairy Moon Fu's group."

At these words, Broken River and his companions let out relieved breaths, gazing at Yang Chen with thankful eyes as they responded, "Brother Yang Chen, we're truly grateful. For what happened today, we'll put in a good word for you with Daozu Elder."

"What Fellow Yang Chen has done is correct—swapping that treasure to resolve the issue with the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag and Junior Sister Moon Orchid's predicament. Still, I'm curious about the purpose of the treasure from the top level of the Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower," Madame Autumn Plum remarked.

Yang Chen replied, "It's merely the ancestral inheritance cultivation method of the snake people. I can't fathom why those Ghost Kings desired it. Perhaps they aim to conduct some unique experiments. Even if the outcome isn't ideal, rescuing Fairy Moon Fu takes priority right now."

Upon learning it was just an inherited technique, everyone nodded and didn't dwell on it further.

However, they remained unaware that Yang Chen wasn't being entirely honest.

Regarding Fairy Moon Fu and her group, he harbored separate intentions and chose not to reveal them to the others.

Once back at his quarters, Yang Chen started to contemplate deeply.

The item sought by Huan Ye Ming Wang was the enigmatic giant egg. Yang Chen had no clue what the giant egg truly was. How could he possibly surrender it to them without resistance?

He coveted the giant egg for himself, and he intended to secure Fairy Moon Fu's six members as well.

His own schemes were in play; now, it was a question of executing them effectively...

"It all depends on that Mo Dao. For now, I should head to the meeting," Yang Chen murmured to himself.

A meeting! With whom?

Obviously, it was with Wan Huaruo.

Before departing earlier, Wan Huaruo had transmitted a message to him, inviting him to her pool that evening, where she promised to await him and offer a treasure.

Yang Chen placed little value on this treasure; greed for wealth had never tempted him.

His intrigue centered on Wan Huaruo herself. He sensed she didn't quite fit with the snake people overall and that she hid layers of complexity.

With these thoughts swirling, Yang Chen had already devised a strategy.

Thanks to his abilities, slipping away from the royal family undetected was a straightforward task. Manipulating spacetime allowed him to enter and exit with ease.

By the time he arrived, Yang Chen stood before the pool.

As he touched down near the pool of the Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower, a seductive voice drifted into his ears.

"Fellow Chen, join me in the pool to chat!" Wan Huaruo chuckled invitingly.

Yang Chen eyed the pool, ensuring no dangers lurked, before diving in.

He hadn't anticipated the pool's profound depth, plunging endlessly. Upon entry, icy chill extended thousands of feet below until the bottom finally emerged.

There lay a hidden realm—a vast cave dwelling filled with blooming flowers, lush trees, and vibrant greenery. Echoes of flowing water reached from afar. It resembled a lady's private chamber at first sight, crafted with delicate elegance and scents wafting all around.

Within this cavern, a woman perched on a stone seat, gesturing lightly with a warm smile, "Young Master Yang Chen, have a seat."

Facing Wan Huaruo's beckoning, Yang Chen remained composed, fixing his gaze on her stunning features before taking the seat across from her.

Wan Huaruo offered a gentle smile, delicately pouring tea and sliding it toward Yang Chen. "This pool and I are bound as one; I've cultivated alongside it for endless years. The tea comes from its waters—not meant for ordinary folks to partake."

Yang Chen glanced at the tea but didn't touch it hastily, instead stating, "Lady Wan, speak plainly about what you wish to discuss. My decision to meet you tonight stems from genuine interest in certain facets of your character. So, let's skip the formalities and cut straight to it. I'm not one swayed by lavish displays or material allure."

These words made Wan Huaruo's eyes shimmer like rippling water; she gazed at Yang Chen with a captivating smile that bewitched the senses.

"With Young Master Yang Chen being so direct, it wouldn't do for me, Huaruo, to play coy. I'll be frank then: Young Master Yang Chen, would you grant this giant egg to me?" Wan Huaruo's alluring eyes carried a beseeching glint, stirring reluctance to deny her.

Yang Chen's resolve stood firm; a mere glance from Wan Huaruo wouldn't sway him.

Besides, the giant egg puzzled him even more now. First Huan Ye Ming Wang, now Wan Huaruo—two enigmatic powerhouses fixated on it.

One must realize that alien tribes from the Heavenly Fate Realm can't approach the Taiyuan Star System too closely. These pair of Heavenly-separated Realm masters likely represent the pinnacle of forces able to infiltrate the Nine Dragons World. Both eyeing the giant egg—what secret does it hold? The mystery deepened.

"I've long suspected Lady Wan was unique. It appears your long vigil here has been aimed at this giant egg all along?" Yang Chen remarked with a teasing grin.

Wan Huaruo flinched briefly before refuting, "Young Master Yang Chen, you've got it wrong. My years of guardianship here fulfill my duty. As for the giant egg, yes, it's a priceless item I've longed for, and I'm prepared to barter other valuables for it."

Yang Chen let out a scoff, "Lady Wan, I urge you to share the full truth. If you continue concealing matters, forget about any deal—even your own secrets, I'll uncover them myself."

At this, Wan Huaruo trembled faintly, meeting Yang Chen's eyes and realizing he had pierced through her facade to some degree.

She bit her lip and exhaled softly, "Fellow Daoist Yang Chen possesses keen insight; nothing escapes you. Truth be told, my prolonged seclusion in this pool, watching over it, has indeed centered on the giant egg. Regrettably, my strength falls short. Despite years of effort to claim it, I've only conquered the ninth floor, repeatedly failing at the tenth."

Yang Chen grew even more baffled about the giant egg's significance.

Noticing Yang Chen lost in contemplation, Wan Huaruo parted her crimson lips delicately, "Fellow Chen, I desperately require this giant egg. Should you yield it to me, I'll offer a supreme treasure in return."

"What sort of supreme treasure?" Yang Chen inquired, his interest piqued.

Wan Huaruo recognized Yang Chen was testing her depths, yet she replied with poised elegance, "It's known as the Wheel of Destiny Mirror, a companion through my many years and one of my greatest treasures that has preserved my life until this day."

"What makes this Wheel of Destiny Mirror so remarkable?" Yang Chen questioned, genuinely perplexed.

"With this treasure, Young Master Yang Chen need only activate it subtly to veil his aura and visage entirely. Even experts of the Heavenly Fate Realm couldn't detect him without thorough scrutiny. Huaruo has evaded peril numerous times thanks to it. Though not a divine artifact, it's a rare heirloom secret treasure from my lineage." Wan Huaruo's expression brimmed with pride.
