Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Yun Xi: The Holy Spirit Secret Realm Isn’t Mine (Please Follow)

Two powerful and distinct Taoist Rhythm Realms clashed, forming a massive hurricane that swept outward in all directions.

Everyone in the great hall nearly tumbled over.

A graceful figure appeared beside Mu Cheng, his Contractor, who was also his wife, Song Xier.

Song Xier pressed down on Mu Cheng’s shoulder and impeded, "Mu Cheng, don’t be rash!"

The aging butler also interjected, "City Lord, you shouldn’t confront the Supreme Kunpeng. The Kunpeng house has two Supremes; making enemies would be a loss not worth the gain."

Song Xier analyzed, "It was our City Lord Mansion that erred first. Compensating a bit extra won’t hurt our dignity too much."

"Hmph!" Mu Cheng snorted coldly, restrained the berserk Taoist Rhythm Realm and turned his face away, "If we let them go like this today, where would the City Lord Mansion’s face be?"

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier smiled slightly, "I’ll handle it."

Mu Cheng, as the City Lord, had to consider the welfare of Modu Base in everything he did; he could no longer be the hot-headed and vindictive youth he once was.

Especially when involving the Supreme Kunpeng with double supremacy.

Unless absolutely necessary, it was best to avoid pushing them to an adversarial stance.

Seeing Mu Cheng no longer aggressively challenging, Yun Xi also withdrew her projected Taoist Rhythm Realm, her expression cold as she said:

"Mu Cheng, why stop the fight? I was just looking forward to seeing how fearsome an Array Master you are!"

Mu Cheng averted his gaze, not wanting to see her.

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier wore a smile on her face and elegantly approached, saying warmly and politely:

"Supreme Yun Xi, it was our Xue Er who was headstrong and peeked into your sacred Secret Realm. Here, I, Song Xier, apologize on behalf of Xue Er."

She bowed deeply.

Not hitting a smiling face, Yun Xi replied, "Mrs. Song, hello to you."

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier changed the subject, "Since the compensation has been given, our City Lord Mansion certainly will not retract it capriciously. However, I have one request."

"What is it?" Yun Xi smiled, understanding that the compensation was far beyond the loss of attempted theft.

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier spoke, "For the annual training in the Secret Realm, how about giving two more spots to the City Lord Mansion?"

Yun Xi frowned, "Previously, I would have easily granted two extra spots, but now it’s different. The Holy Secret Realm is no longer under my control; someone else has obtained it by blood pact. It’s not up to me."

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier was astounded.

City Lord Mu Cheng was shocked.

Mu Qingxue blushed.

Mu Cheng turned to look at Mu Qingxue, asking, "Didn’t you fail to acquire the Heart of Secret Realm? What exactly happened?"

Mu Qingxue looked a bit embarrassed as she briefly recounted what had occurred inside the Secret Realm, but she left out specifics, like being seen by Xiao Ye and using the Ancient Secret Technique, Secret of the Character ’Xin’.

Mu Qingxue’s voice was not loud, yet everyone heard her words.

Instantly, everyone present—Mu Cheng, Song Xier, the aging butler—all looked at Xiao Ye with shocked expressions.

This guy, he actually defeated Mu Qingxue, the number one pride of Modu Base, and snatched away the Secret Realm Core from her grasp!

Xiao Ye stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at a 45-degree angle, "Correct, the Holy Secret Realm is now under my control, having been bound to me by blood. However, I haven’t accepted your compensation, so two extra spots are out of the question."

Mu Qingxue’s face darkened, her teeth grinding audibly. This guy had snatched away her chance, and now he was acting arrogantly.

City Lord’s Wife Song Xier looked at Xiao Ye with a meaningful gaze, her eyes scanning back and forth between him and Mu Qingxue.

Mu Cheng’s eyes widened, about to erupt in anger!

It was this youngster who caught Xue Er, leading to their capture by the Supreme Kunpeng, and then demanding compensation!

Yun Xi’s slight smile froze. She did not expect Xiao Ye to fail to read the situation, not knowing how to take a step back when opportunity presented itself.

The compensation she received was clearly far beyond the damage of an attempted theft. When Song Xier suggested giving them two extra spots annually, it was to let everyone descent gracefully and part on good terms. Two extra spots, after all, weren’t significant to the Holy Secret Realm.

Xiao Ye’s mouth curled into a slight smirk, leaning closer to Yun Xi, whispering:

"Sister Yun Xi, I haven’t taken the ’compensation’! It wouldn’t be proper to just give away two extra spots for nothing, right?"

Yun Xi’s face darkened, it turned out Xiao Ye was eyeing that compensation!

"Fine! I’ll give you a supreme low-grade piece of equipment." She gritted her teeth.

But Xiao Ye shook his head.

Yun Xi glanced at him disdainfully, "Two pieces!"

Xiao Ye remained unmoved.

Yun Xi’s beautiful eyes revealed a dangerous gleam, "Three pieces!"

Xiao Ye held up a finger.

Yun Xi’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Ten pieces?"

Xiao Ye chuckled, "Right, give me ten pieces, eight of them supreme level equipment, and two top-grade automatic contract instruments."

Originally, he wanted ten pieces of supreme level equipment, but top-grade automatic contract instruments were rare as well, and although not as good as equipment in utility, who knows if they might be needed later.

"Hmph!" Yun Xi took out a storage ring, "Here!"

Xiao Ye received it with a face full of joy.

But when he opened it, there were only three pieces of supreme level equipment and three top-grade automatic contract instruments.

Immediately, he said with dissatisfaction, "Sister Yun Xi, this..."

Yun Xi didn’t let him finish speaking and interjected, "You’ve already taken the items. If you don’t show some gratitude and draw the attention of the City Lord Mansion, don’t blame me."

Watching her bright eyes, Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched slightly.

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, everyone at the scene was paying attention to them, and their conversation was heard by all, the City Lord couple looking at them with astounded expressions.

This young man, he sure has a deep connection with Kunpeng Supreme!

They didn’t seem to be student and teacher at all, but rather like close friends haggling and bargaining to the limits!

Mu Qingxue clenched her teeth tightly, this scene was so similar to the one in the Heart of Secret Realm, where after Kunpeng Supreme made three demands, Xiao Ye bargained.

In her heart, Xiao Ye was someone who wouldn’t bear any loss, even liked to take great advantage — a complete scoundrel!

"This bastard, he annoys me just by existing!" Mu Qingxue thought darkly.

Mrs. Song’s voice was gentle as she asked, "Handsome young man, what do you think?"

Xiao Ye pondered for a moment, "I’m not called handsome young man, I’m Xiao Ye!"

"I’ll give two additional quotas to the City Lord Mansion every year."

Providing a day each year for a pair of Grandmaster Realm Contractors from the Supreme Family to enter the sacred Secret Realm as agreed upon would naturally continue; giving two extra quotas to the City Lord Mansion wasn’t a big deal.

Trainees at the Grandmaster Realm posed no threat to the Life-Type Magic Beast Group; they could only kill some Destruction-Type Grandmaster Realm Dinosaur Demon Beasts, and with the limitation of one day, they couldn’t even run a full circuit around the whole Secret Realm. How many beasts could they kill?

Mrs. Song smiled, Yun Xi smiled too.

The conflict resolved, and everyone was happy.

Yun Xi promptly suggested bidding farewell.

Suddenly, Mu Qingxue ran over, teeth itching with aggravation, and said to Xiao Ye, "Xiao Ye, you bastard, next time I’ll definitely defeat you!"

Xiao Ye responded, "Sure, I’ll be waiting!"

Watching his indifference, Mu Qingxue grew even more infuriated, glaring with her eyes.

This appearance of hers incited Xiao Ye to tease, he leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "Girl, you’ve maintained the forest very delicately."

After saying this, Xiao Ye returned to Yun Xi’s side, Yun Xi waved her hand, and the two of them vanished, leaving the place.

Mu Qingxue was stupefied - what?

Then, after a moment’s thought and realizing the implication, her pretty face turned beet red, and she exclaimed angrily,

"Bastard, I’m going to kill you!"
