Myriad Realms Gatekeeper-Chapter 764 - 399 Teamwork of Two_3

Chapter 764: Chapter 399: Teamwork of Two!_3 Chapter 764: Chapter 399: Teamwork of Two!_3 Although he was known as the Lord of Secrets, a high-level cosmic lifeform according to legend—

But as the person in charge of this secret mission, he had been cultivating the Taoist Palace for countless years and considered himself incredibly proficient in the knowledge of the cultivation side.

He knew exactly how difficult it was to refine Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pills.

— No one in the Sect could refine Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pills!

That’s why they had to send people out to purchase them.

If this Nangong Wantu had actually managed to refine a Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pill, it would truly be an astonishing feat.

Something the Human Race couldn’t do had been accomplished by a king species!

How absurd! How astonishing!

At this moment,

Saintly Honor, as a Sect Leader who “knew the ropes” of cultivator sects, also felt a dash of curiosity.

It was a pity to interrupt an alchemist about to make a breakthrough.

Besides, he wanted to see for himself what quality the pills in this batch were.

… Wait.

It was only a matter of a few minutes anyway.

Saintly Honor reigned in the murderous intent that suffused his being, blending into the void, standing with his hands behind his back, closely watching the Pill Furnace.

He truly was an expert.

After squinting and observing for a while, he made his judgment.

“The control of the fire and Hand Gestures are almost flawless, and the aroma of the medicine is abundant.”

“There is an auspicious sign above the Pill Furnace.”

“— Could it really produce a Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pill?”

Time ticked by, second by second.

Shen Ye suddenly spoke, “If I refine a Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pill, you must sign a contract to follow my lead at all times.”

“No problem,” Dantai Mingyue said.

“Alright, it’s a deal.” Shen Ye changed his Hand Gesture, and from a distance, he smacked the Pill Furnace.

Hum—

The Pill Furnace erupted with a long humming sound, the flames within died down, and scalding pills poured out.

This time Shen Ye didn’t use a gourd to catch them, instead utilizing a technique to control objects.

Immediately, all the Elixirs hovered mid-air.

Three strands of spirit sense swept over the dozens of pills, then retracted together, wrapping around one that emitted a faint glow.

“It’s superior grade,” Dantai Mingyue said hoarsely.

Although extremely agitated at the moment, the other party had actually refined a Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pill!

Even within the Human Resistance Army Alliance, such a pill that healed both body and Spirit Soul was highly prized.

— He had actually made it!

Shen Ye laughed a few times and with a flip of his hand, pulled out a contract:

“Sign it — whenever I call you, you must respond to my Summon.”

Dantai Mingyue released his spirit sense and swept over the contract.

The terms in this contract were too unfair.

Once signed, he could indeed be summoned at any time.

It was practically a beck-and-call arrangement.

How could this be?

She was about to negotiate the terms when Shen Ye’s voice transmission suddenly rang in her ear:

“Sign it quickly, it’s your only chance to survive.”

Dantai Mingyue felt a stir in her heart.

Trust him?

Or continue to negotiate?

Or refuse to sign the contract at all?

Originally…

Her mission was to investigate the secrets of the Three Arts of the Immortal Kingdom.

Only the Panda came forward to persuade her not to throw her life away.

She had awakened her gate power but was ostracized by others out of fear.

Now the Panda was missing, but it left behind a recording, urging her once again not to throw her life away.

It also said—

The man before her was the only one she could contact.

“Find him, and you’ll have found me.”

Those were the Panda’s exact words.

… Sign it.

After all, she was trapped within the Taoist Palace, with no possibility of escape.

And even if—

What would change if she got out?

Dantai Mingyue gritted her teeth, pressed her hand onto the contract, and declared in a low voice:

“With the imprint of my Spirit Soul, I make this pact!”

The contract was established!

The very next second,

A round of applause came from behind them.

Both turned around to look, only to see Saintly Honor standing there with a smile on his face.

“Congratulations, Nangong Wantu.”

Saintly Honor continued with an amicable expression:

“You have managed to refine Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pills, and you’ve also gained the favor of a beautiful woman, I guess—”

“As a human, you have done quite well.”

Shen Ye grinned.

— As a human?

Such a sarcastic remark made in front of a woman.

Are you threatening me?

Prepared to expose my identity at any moment?

— After all, my public reason for entering the Sect was to find a companion.

So you think you can hold this over me?

“I’ve considered your previous suggestion; how do you think I fared?”

Saintly Honor was pushing him into a corner.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Ye, along with Dantai Mingyue, bowed and said:

“We’ve seen Saintly Honor.”

— Why has there been no message from the Heart of the Swarm?

Under the gaze of Saintly Honor, he continued:

“I thought my attitude was quite clear; someone of your stature should have seen my choice from the start.”

“— How could you not know? Did you really make a special trip just for this trivial matter?”

Saintly Honor, unmoved, stared at him with an expressionless face and asked:

“When did you make your position clear?”

Shen Ye pointed casually.

All those pills hovering in mid-air flew towards Saintly Honor, landing before him.

“This is the first time I have refined Superior Grade Tranquil Spirit Pills.”

“My heart is overjoyed, apprehensive, and proud because I’ve always thought my Talent was limited, never able to refine such a lofty thing.”

Seeing a flash of impatience in Saintly Honor’s eyes, Shen Ye quickly said:

“Now, I offer them to Saintly Honor.”

“— Is the meaning not clear enough?”

Saintly Honor nodded slightly.

Understood.

Offering Elixirs like this meant willing to become one of his subordinates.

That should be correct.

If he kept asking—

Would he then think Saintly Honor couldn’t even grasp this meaning?

… The thinking of these creatures is different from his own, after all, he would never look for a partner among humans.
