Chapter 459: Chapter 407: Trade, to Seek Protection (Fifth Update, Second Update)

Meeting Pei Xuanjing’s curious gaze, Mr. Wu’s lips curved into a faint smile. “I’m not interested in getting involved. But if Master is interested, I would like to make a trade with Master.”
“Hmm?” Pei Xuanjing slightly furrowed his brow.
He was only mildly curious about this Mr. Wu’s identity and casually asked out of curiosity. He had no intention of pursuing it to the root, as everyone has their secrets. As long as the other person’s secret doesn’t affect him, he wouldn’t interfere.
However, he didn’t expect such a reply from the other party, which aroused more curiosity in him, sparking some interest.
“That being said, you have piqued my curiosity. If you don’t mind, let’s hear what it is,” Pei Xuanjing said, chuckling.
With a smile on his face, Mr. Wu didn’t speak outright but chose to convey it secretly.
However, what he relayed to Pei Xuanjing startled him, shifting his focus completely from the distant battlefield.
“I heard that the Master wants to establish the Divine Dynasty on Earth and seal the gods. Coincidentally, I have some information about the Divine Dynasty on Earth, which might assist the Master’s upcoming plans. I wonder if Master would be willing to accept it.”
After hearing this, Pei Xuanjing fell silent for a moment, not responding immediately. Mr. Wu didn’t rush him but waited for his reply.
Pei Xuanjing’s expression remained calm, but he was quickly analyzing the other person’s words in his mind.
As for him knowing about the Divine Dynasty Plan, Pei Xuanjing was not surprised. After all, once a secret is known to a second person, it’s no longer a secret.
When the plan of the Divine Dynasty was known to various major powers and the elder statesmen of the Court, it was within their expectation that this news wouldn’t remain hidden for long.
In fact, they intentionally spread the news as this matter represented the interests of countless people. Most people could benefit from it, which could sway many people to their side.
Thus, after the news was spread, a multitude of powerful entities chose to side with the Taoist School and the imperial court, strengthening their strength.
So, even if the other party knows about this news, it doesn’t matter, because at the moment, in the Daming World, Pei Xuanjing is the strongest and represents the major powers. People like Mr. Wu are incapable of stopping this matter.
“However, the fact that the other party also has information about the Divine Dynasty and wishes to trade with me is quite strange,” thought Pei Xuanjing.
The Divine Dynasty in Daming World is a mystery, but in the Sky Wasteland, it’s not too mysterious. Even kingdoms like the Xue ancient country are just a mutated version of Divine Dynasty, or a simplified version.
However, based on the information gleaned from Xue Hanyi, Pei Xuanjing felt that he had more information about the Divine Dynasty than the other party.
Now, with such confidence from Mr. Wu, Pei Xuanjing couldn’t help guessing. The Witch Deity Teaching, an ancient power inherited from ancient times, might hold some hidden secrets unknown to others.
“So what does Mr. wish to receive in exchange?” Pei Xuanjing asked.
He didn’t ask what the other party had first but what the other party wanted to trade.
He needed to judge from what the other party wanted whether this trade was worth it or not.

Mr. Wu answered slowly, “I have two conditions. Firstly, if the Divine Dynasty is truly established, I hope to have a place in this Divine Dynasty; secondly, when the forces of the Sky Wasteland return, I wish to receive Master’s protection.”
Seeing his two conditions, Pei Xuanjing slightly furrowed his brow, weighing them in his mind.
The first condition wasn’t much of a problem. After the construction of the Divine Dynasty, there would be countless benefits to be offered. It was expected that the other party wants to join it eventually.
After all, this Divine Dynasty is different from Sects. They welcome powerful entities from all sides to join. As long as what Mr. Wu offers has sufficient value, giving him a slice of the pie wouldn’t hurt.
However, Pei Xuanjing was surprised by the second condition. The other party wants his protection once those powers of the Sky Wasteland return.
My protection?
Pei Xuanjing furrowed his brow slightly, finding it a bit strange.
The other party belongs to the Witch Deity Teaching, an ultimate force with the Nine Realms of Spirit sitting in town. It is a hegemonic existence in the Sky Wasteland. Why would a student of the Witch Deity Teaching need his protection?
Could it be…
“Since Mr. belongs to the Witch Deity Teaching and relies on it with powerful entities at your disposal, why would you need my shield?” Pei Xuanjing chuckled, then suddenly with a grave face, he enquired, “Unless, you’re not a student of the Witch Deity Teaching?”
Upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Mr. Wu’s expression remained unchanged, dismissing the suspicion idly, “Master need not guess, I am indeed from the Witch Deity Teaching. There’s no need to worry. If it were false, they would certainly not be able to deceive.”
“As for why I, being a member of the Witch Deity Teaching, still need Master’s protection, that’s my matter. The secrets therein can’t be shared with Master for the time being. But please rest assured, Master, this absolutely won’t attract the Witch Deity Teaching’s hostility.”
Having stood at the peak of the Nine Realms of Spirit, these powerful entities possess extraordinary strength. A single action is enough to shake the world.
Mr. Wu was aware of how strong the Witch Deity Teaching, bolstered by suchly immensely powerful beings sitting at the helm, was. That’s why he explained to Pei Xuanjing, that having him safeguard him absolutely won’t attract any hostility from such powerful entities.
Pei Xuanjing neither agreed nor disagreed but countered, “The Sky Wasteland has many ancient powers, countless strong beings. Mr. Wu, how can you be so sure that I have the ability to safeguard you?”
This was his point of curiosity. The secret about his simulator was known to no one. Similarly, even with the simulator, he didn’t dare to assure that he would possess enough power to face off against these ancient forces when they return. How could the other party be so optimistic about him?
Mr. Wu revealed a smile, “I have long admired your esteemed name, Master, and have spent some time researching your past. I admire your talent and charisma immensely and believe that if you were in the Sky Wasteland, your strength would undoubtedly be better. As long as there’s no fallout, you’re sure to be an unparalleled powerful entity in the future.”
“However, only after meeting Master, did I realize what ‘reputation falls short of meeting’, and ‘no unworthy man under a great name’. My previous thoughts were simply like ‘a frog in a well’. After all, a powerful entity who, within less than 60 years, has already stepped into the Fifth Order in Body Refining and cultivated to the point where their flesh and blood evolve external incarnation divine ability, is rarely seen even in the Sky Wasteland. More so, considering that the environment for cultivation in our ancestral land revived just a decade ago and is several times worse compared to the Sky Wasteland.”
