Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2697: Chapter 2700: Hoping the Little Princess Will Grant My Wish

Under the gaze of several people, Jiang Chen transmitted a few messages and seemed to receive a few replies before putting away the jade slip and looking at the hunched elder: "Senior, please wait a moment. Someone will come to settle the bill soon!"

"Heh! Settle the bill? Jiang Chen, do you know what five million Dao Source Beads mean? It means you can help a powerful expert who just broke through the initial stage of a Saint stabilize their realm. Do you understand what that represents?"

Pang Lie looked at Jiang Chen with a mocking expression, "Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re trying to do. It is true that your master is Hu Yiqiu, but neither Hu Yiqiu nor your grandmaster Elder Zhu has the privilege to take things from our Canghai Trade Alliance without paying. Relying on them to gain favor is impossible!"

"Brother Jiang, I’m sorry, it’s my..."

Pang Guang also thought this way, looking at Jiang Chen apologetically.

"Brother Pang, just wait."

Jiang Chen smiled lightly, glanced at Tang Jie, and softly asked, "What did he take that I need?"

Tang Jie was slightly stunned, glanced at Pang Guang, and without waiting for his reply, proactively said, "What do you need the Leafless Immortal Lotus, Nine Revolutions Bodysculpting Saliva, and all that Jiuyou Ming Grass for?"

"Did you take these things?"

Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up, and he cupped his fists at Tang Jie: "Brother Tang, could you let these go to me?"

"First, tell me what you need these things for."

Tang Jie flicked his eyes over and spoke softly.

"I..."

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

He didn’t really want to let others know about Yan Yufei’s situation, a top-tier expert who only had a Primordial Spirit left. If news got out, it would cause a great sensation and undoubtedly attract countless experts above Saint to seize.

If that truly happened, even if Yan Yufei had some background, it definitely wouldn’t scare everyone off. Once someone refined such a Primordial Spirit, it would be of immense benefit to their own Primordial Spirit. Given how difficult Primordial Spirit Power is to cultivate, many evil cultivators on the continent engage in this kind of control and refining of others’ Primordial Spirits, so one can’t be too cautious!

"Enough, I won’t ask anymore."

Seeing Jiang Chen’s difficulty, Tang Jie didn’t insist on further questioning and softly said, "I prepared these items for a friend. He needs them for body refinement and plans to directly break through to the Unity Realm Stage after heading to the Extraterritorial Battlefield. His family and ours have had a lifelong relationship, and it was my grandfather who personally ordered me to help collect them. I can’t give them to you."

"Body refinement... breakthrough to the Unity Realm Stage? Are you talking about Da Han? No... Gu Han?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen found it somewhat familiar and remembered the young man from the Titan Clan, though he was not quite sure of his name. Feng Xuan’er called him Da Han, while Bai Xiaosheng called him Young Master Gu.

"Gu Han? Are you talking about Brother Gu Lin? You know him?"

Tang Jie looked at Jiang Chen in surprise.

"If Feng Xuan’er calls him Da Han, I’ve indeed met him."

Jiang Chen said softly.

Pang Guang and the others gave Jiang Chen an unexpected glance.

The two of them chatting, they couldn’t interrupt. After all, it was a negotiation, and it wasn’t good to butt in. They were just surprised to hear Feng Xuan’er’s name, as it seemed they’d all heard of her before.

"Yes, that’s Brother Gu Lin."

Tang Jie nodded.

"I see."

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth: "Get him to come over, maybe I’ll have a way to get him to exchange those things with me!"

"Do you have body-refining spiritual objects? Ones that could match the Leafless Immortal Lotus and Nine Revolutions Bodysculpting Saliva?"

Tang Jie’s expression became one of disbelief: "Jiang Chen, these are Dao characteristic spiritual objects that have effects on Saints, Saint Monarchs, and even Supreme Experts! These can lay the foundation for Supreme status at low realms! Are you sure you can trade for them?"

"I..."

Jiang Chen was taken aback, not expecting these items to be so valuable. Gritting his teeth again, he said solemnly: "Call him over, I’ll try!"

"Well! I’ll give you this face!"

Tang Jie nodded, took out his Message Transmitting Jade Slip, and exchanged a few words with it.

"You guys really know each other? As soon as I mentioned it was for you, he immediately wanted to come over."

Tang Jie put away the jade slip, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise.

Jiang Chen lightly nodded, somewhat absent-minded, contemplating what he could use to trade with Gu Lin for these things.

For body refinement, he only had Dragon Qi and Long Yan.

The Dragon Qi was because it was Lord Ancestral Dragon’s Origin Dragon Qi, and the trace of Origin Primordial Spirit within it had fully merged with Jiang Chen’s Divine Soul, now grown into a Primordial Spirit. As long as Jiang Chen’s Primordial Spirit doesn’t perish, the Dragon Qi will continue endlessly.

Long Yan was the same, but Jiang Chen was unsure what kind of Dragon Qi or Long Yan Gu Lin needed. If he required it with the Origin Primordial Spirit, Jiang Chen couldn’t give it to him.

But merely ordinary Dragon Qi or Long Yan was problematic—could he take them away? It sounded like Gu Lin needed them for the Extraterritorial Battlefield to breakthrough, which would be troublesome if they couldn’t be taken.

Jiang Chen was somewhat worried and refrained from saying anything more. The others had no words either, with Pang Guang and the others worrying for Jiang Chen, while Pang Lie and Jiang Tiancheng waited for a joke, all keeping silent.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

A series of knocks broke the silence in the room.

Tang Jie turned to open the door and, knowing who was likely to come, opened it for both a friend and a heavenly favored young lady.

As the door opened, a shadow filled the entrance as a burly figure stood there, almost overshadowing the two stunningly beautiful women standing before him.

"Greetings, Little Princess!"

Tang Jie cupped his fists and bowed.

The faces of Pang Guang and the others changed, and they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Cheng Huang’er glanced at everyone before stepping into the room, followed by Feng Xuan’er and Gu Lin. Gu Lin, however, had to stoop to fit inside after entering.

"You actually borrowed Dao Source Beads from me?"

Cheng Huang’er looked at Jiang Chen with some astonishment.

She knew of Jiang Chen’s pride and borrowing money from others was not something he would typically do.

"What!?"

"He borrowed Dao Source Beads from the Little Princess!?"

Pang Guang and the others were shocked, looking at Jiang Chen in disbelief, while Pang Lie and Jiang Tiancheng’s faces turned pale, even the hunched elder was filled with astonishment.

Damn, what kind of relationship does Jiang Chen have with the Little Princess? Just a message, and she came?

Jiang Chen chuckled wryly, speaking softly, "A debt of gratitude for saving a life cannot be forgotten; I must set aside my pride and hope for the Little Princess’s approval."

"A debt of gratitude for saving a life? Whose?"

Cheng Huang’er asked curiously.

"Remember the one you were looking for on the Abandoned Plains?"

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and transmitted the message to Cheng Huang’er.

Though several people in the room could intercept his transmission, none dared to do so, as this was a transmission directed to the Little Princess.

"You know where she is?"

Cheng Huang’er’s expression changed, eagerly transmitting back a question.

"What does the Little Princess want from her?"

Jiang Chen didn’t answer directly.

"Perhaps she doesn’t want to see anyone. I won’t ask where she is. Just tell me if she’s safe."

Cheng Huang’er’s eyes flickered as she transmitted the message.

"Safe!"
