245: negotiation

“I want to exchange for the sword in your hand,” Su Yun suddenly said.

Hearing Su Yun’s words, Mu Wuchen was slightly stunned. He hadn’t expected that this Son of Destiny would say such a thing.

Mu Wuchen smiled playfully in his heart.

The other party was certainly playing a good game, actually wanting to covet his Xuanyuan Sword…

Was he holding onto a Luck mentality, thinking that he didn’t recognize its value?

His Xuanyuan Sword was an ancient divine weapon, even among all the heavens, it was at the very top!

What did he have to exchange with him?

Mu Wuchen secretly chuckled in his heart, but on the surface, he didn’t immediately refuse.

The other party was a Son of Destiny who relied on divine weapons to enhance his own strength. The weapons he took out likely all had destiny points. He wanted to see what he would take out to exchange with him…

Seeing Mu Wuchen’s thoughtful expression, Su Yun once again saw hope.

His eyes flickered, and his mind raced, seemingly pondering what to offer as an exchange.

Looking at Mu Wuchen’s cultivation and demeanor, his talent and background were clearly exceptional.

Taking out something too inferior would seem insincere, but taking out something too good, he was reluctant…

…

“Brother…”

After some thought, Su Yun seemed to have made a decision, and he slowly spoke.

“I won’t take your item for free. How about I use this as an exchange?”

As he spoke, Su Yun gestured, and an ancient, majestic bell appeared out of thin air.

The bell’s body was round and heavy, its surface shimmering with light. The giant bell was inlaid with gold and jade, gleaming with cold light, and inscribed with heavenly spirits and the starry sea, looking extraordinarily remarkable.

With a chime from the giant bell, the entire small world instantly turned from daylight to darkness.

The giant bell chimed again, and the darkness immediately turned clear…

Seeing the giant bell, Mu Wuchen’s eyes narrowed, but only for a moment before he opened them again.

“Brother, this item is the ancient divine artifact, the Eastern Emperor Bell. It is said to be the destined magical treasure of the ancient Great Emperor Taiyi. Even looking across the entire Qianyan Immortal Domain, the weight of this item can rank among the top few. How about I exchange this for the treasured sword in your hand?”

Hearing Su Yun’s words, Mu Wuchen was noncommittal.

This item indeed had the aura of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

If it were the true Eastern Emperor Bell, it would indeed be a supreme treasure comparable to the Xuanyuan Sword.

But what Su Yun had taken out at this moment was a fake.

Although this item possessed the aura of the Eastern Emperor Bell, compared to the true Eastern Emperor Bell, it was not just a little bit inferior.

Mu Wuchen estimated that the Eastern Emperor Bell Su Yun had taken out was very likely a replica made by a later master refiner who had obtained fragments of the Eastern Emperor Bell and restored it based on ancient records.

However, among replicas, this item’s quality was quite good.

But good was good, compared to the true Xuanyuan Sword in his hand, it was like heaven and earth!

This Su Yun was a weapon expert; he must know that what he had was a fake.

He was trying to trick him.

Hearing Su Yun’s condition, Mu Wuchen shook his head slightly. He stroked the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and said,

“Although I don’t know the origin of the treasured sword in my hand, it’s clearly no ordinary item. The conditions you’ve offered are not enough…”

Mu Wuchen didn’t rush to refuse, also spouting nonsense.

He still wanted to see how many trump cards this Son of Destiny, Su Yun, still had…

Hearing Mu Wuchen’s refusing reply, Su Yun secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Through Mu Wuchen’s answer just now, he had already determined that the man in front of him did not know the value of the treasured sword in his hand!

Moreover, what Mu Wuchen had just said was that what he offered was “not enough,” not “impossible”…

This meant there was a chance!

As long as he could obtain the weapon in Mu Wuchen’s hand, everything would be worth it!

However, although Su Yun was secretly delighted, he put on an extremely struggling expression on the surface, as if he was in great difficulty.

A few breaths later, Su Yun gritted his teeth, seemingly having made a decision that went against his ancestors…

“Good!”

Su Yun said through gritted teeth.

Looking at Su Yun’s expression, Mu Wuchen sneered in his heart.

This Son of Destiny was truly an actor.

Such acting skills, it would be a pity if he didn’t go into fraud.

Su Yun waved his hand again, and instantly, a gourd-shaped bronze magical artifact appeared in his hand!

On the gourd artifact, nine precious pearls floated quietly. Within the pearls, terrifying power was contained, and a faint demonic aura emanated from the mouth of the gourd…

However, upon seeing this item, Su Meier frowned slightly, and her gaze towards Su Yun became even colder…

“This item is the nine treasures demon refining pot. Within its nine precious pearls, the Dharmakayas of nine great demon-slaying experts are nurtured. The gourd itself forms a space, specifically designed to counter various demonic creatures. Even a Demon Emperor, upon encountering this item, would have two-tenths of his power weakened. Demonic creatures below the Demon Emperor would be even more affected. And once collected into this item, within a thousand years, they will inevitably be refined into thick blood, becoming nourishment for this treasure!”

Hearing Su Yun’s explanation, Mu Wuchen finally understood why the little fox had shown such an expression.

This item was a treasure specifically used to eradicate demons; it was probably already stained with the blood of many demon race members…

And after the nine treasures demon refining pot appeared, Green Scale frowned even more, leaning closer to Mu Wuchen and further away from Su Yun.

She was a sword, but at this moment, she was also half a demon…

All demon race members, upon seeing a treasure like the nine treasures demon refining pot, would probably not feel well…

However, facing the treasure Su Yun had taken out, Mu Wuchen still shook his head.

“It’s still not enough.”

Hearing Mu Wuchen’s cold reply, Su Yun finally frowned.

The treasures he had taken out, even among the divine weapons he had collected, were already ranked extremely high.

Their rating in the Hundred Refinements Divine Weapon Compendium had even reached Grade A.

But at this moment, Mu Wuchen was still not satisfied…

Was he being greedy, or was he…

Teasing him?

But only for a moment, he dismissed the previous thought.

The man in front of him could not possibly know the true value of that treasured sword!

Otherwise, he would never have agreed to his exchange request!

Moreover, even he himself couldn’t tell the exact grade of the other party’s treasured sword at a glance; he only knew after being prompted by the Hundred Refinements Divine Weapon Compendium…

The other party must have seen his eagerness for that treasured sword and then raised the price on the spot, aiming to get higher stakes!

Su Yun’s mind raced.

Should he directly turn hostile and overturn the table, forcibly taking the treasure, or continue to increase the stakes…

He looked at Mu Wuchen, seemingly judging Mu Wuchen’s strength.

Suddenly, Su Yun looked at the Hundred Refinements Divine Weapon Compendium beside him, seemingly communicating and confirming something…

“Hundred Refinements Divine Weapon Compendium, can you determine the strength of that guy opposite me? If we directly make a move, what are the chances of directly snatching the treasure in his hand?”
