Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Invitation, Conditions, Cooperation!
"Hehe, that’s my own business, and I can’t tell you now."
Gu Youlan smiled and suddenly took out something resembling a compass from herself.
She extended her jade-like finger and lightly touched the compass-like object.
Immediately, in the next moment, a light spot suddenly lit up on the compass-like object.
The light spot flickered on and off, oscillating with a strange ’wave,’ startling Zhu Fei as he watched.
"Hehe, what do you think, Zhu Fei? Are you interested in following this person with me tomorrow to have a look?"
While speaking, Gu Youlan directly passed the compass-like object to Zhu Fei, her smile brimming as she spoke.
"This... this is a Tracking Compass!"
Zhu Fei subconsciously took the object Gu Youlan handed him, and after a thorough inspection, he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
The so-called Tracking Compass, as the name implies, naturally is an item, or rather a Magic Artifact, used to track a specific individual.
What slightly surprised Zhu Fei, though, was that he unexpectedly encountered such an item on Gu Youlan, leaving him more or less astonished.
"Hehe, it seems you really do know quite a lot." freewebnøvel.coɱ
Gu Youlan’s beautiful eyes slightly narrowed as she nodded with a smile, "That’s right, this indeed is a Tracking Compass. Earlier, when I asked you to come help me create a Magic Artifact, it was precisely to craft this item."
"However, since Master Su came over, I didn’t seek your help but had her complete the remaining steps for me."
"Oh."
Hearing Gu Youlan’s explanation, Zhu Fei’s face showed no surprise, and he just hummed softly in response.
He held the Tracking Compass, observing the faintly flickering light spot on it, and couldn’t help but frown slightly, asking, "Who is this person? Why do you want to track him?"
In Zhu Fei’s view, if Gu Youlan was tracking the person indicated by the compass and sharing this with him, there must be her own purpose behind it.
And without understanding Gu Youlan’s true intention, Zhu Fei was not going to easily agree.
"Hehe, this man’s name is Kawai Kita. According to the intelligence gathered by the Treasure Pavilion, he has a map leading to Ancient Relics on him."
Gu Youlan paused for a brief moment and then continued, "His identity is that of a member of the Fusang Sakura Group, with a cultivation at the Ninja God Fourth Level, which, in terms of our Ancient Martial World of Huaxia, means his cultivation is roughly around the Gang Force Fourth Layer."
"He has secretly come to our Huaxia territory with the intention of locating the Ancient Relics indicated on his map so that he can obtain any treasures that may exist there."
"You mean, you want to track this person in order to kill and rob him?"
Zhu Fei didn’t care how the Treasure Pavilion behind Gu Youlan had discovered information about Kawai Kita, he was not concerned, nor did he want to be involved; instead, he directly asked the blunt question that was on his mind.
"Hehe, clever."
Gu Youlan nodded with a smile, not attempting to hide her own intention at all, as if the idea of killing for treasure was something she didn’t take to heart at all.
"Since that’s the case, why are you looking for me? As far as I know, with your strength, Miss You Lan, dealing with a mere Martial Artist at the Gang Force Fourth Layer would be no difficulty at all, right?"
Zhu Fei slightly narrowed his eyes, finally voicing the greatest doubt in his heart.
Gu Youlan raised her hand and elegantly brushed away the stray hairs beside her ear, smiling as she said, "Hehe, Zhu Fei, surely even if I don’t mention it, you should know that in every ancient relic, there must exist some prohibitions or arrays..."
"As for myself, my current ability in this aspect is still somewhat lacking. Since you had agreed to help me refine a magic artifact before, I naturally have reason to believe that, in the field of prohibitions and arrays, you must possess your own unique talents."
Having said this, Gu Youlan suddenly extended two fingers towards Zhu Fei and continued smiling:
"Twenty percent, just agree to accompany me tomorrow to track down that Kawai Kita and help me solve any prohibition arrays that may exist, and then I can promise you, you will be able to take two treasures from within those relics."
Zhu Fei’s brows slightly raised as he sneered, "I’m sorry, but I think you might be mistaken. I’m not as formidable as you think. Besides, I have no interest in those ancient relics."
"Thirty percent, how about that?" Gu Youlan lifted three fingers.
Zhu Fei was unmoved, still wearing a cold sneer.
"Forty percent, how about that?" Gu Youlan extended yet another finger.
Seeing this, Zhu Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he still gave no verbal response.
"Zhu Fei, that should be enough, right? You should know that the terms I’m offering now are very sincere."
Gu Youlan’s eyebrows suddenly raised a fraction, but she still smiled and said, "Moreover, when the time comes, if you want to make some array plates or tools to break barriers or prohibitions, don’t you need me to provide you with materials?"
"Of course, if you can find the breaking formation materials yourself, and guarantee not to fail me at that time, what harm would there be in offering you fifty percent of the loot?"
Hearing Gu Youlan’s words at this moment, Zhu Fei had to admit in his heart that this woman, Gu Youlan, really knew how to grasp people’s psychology.
He had never once said he would accompany her to track down that Kawai Kita, yet Gu Youlan seemed to understand his true inner thoughts as if by instinct.
Not only did she take the initiative to change the subject, shifting the topic to the negotiation, but she also made certain points on which he simply couldn’t argue.
Thinking this, Zhu Fei’s face couldn’t help but show a bitter smile.
He looked at Gu Youlan and eventually nodded helplessly, "Fine, forty percent then, but I have two conditions. As long as you agree to these two conditions, I’ll agree to your earlier request."
"Hehe, what conditions? Feel free to tell me," Gu Youlan didn’t nod in agreement right away but gracefully smiled and looked at Zhu Fei.
Zhu Fei didn’t mind, but after a pause, he immediately said, "First, as you mentioned before, if the ancient relics truly exist, then inevitably there will be prohibitions and arrays. I’ll need some materials to prepare in advance."
"Mhm, that’s not a problem. I can agree to that. How about the second condition?"
"The second condition, which is also the most important, is that once we find the treasures, I must be the first to choose from them. How about that?"
"Hehe, alright, I hope our cooperation will be pleasant."
After hearing Zhu Fei’s second condition, Gu Youlan immediately extended her hand and nodded with a smile at him.
"Mhm, pleasure to cooperate."
Seeing this, Zhu Fei similarly smiled and reached out, lightly grasping the hand Gu Youlan extended toward him.
