The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 128 What kind of egg is this?
Chapter 128: Chapter 128 What kind of egg is this?
The female warrior in the blue dress, Liu Mei, also slightly moved her eyebrows.
Because when Jing Yan saw her face, he only showed an extremely brief moment of distraction. This was enough to prove that this young martial artist possessed an extremely strong ability for self-control, even stronger than some of the older martial artists.
"The spiritual beast is called Golden Throne Guard!" the woman in the blue dress broke the silence and spoke first.
"Oh," Jing Yan nodded.
Although he didn’t know exactly what the Golden Throne Guard was as a spiritual beast, it wasn’t important right now. What needed to be made clear was how the resources on the beast should be divided.
If it were just an ordinary spiritual beast, even a level eight spiritual beast, Jing Yan wouldn’t have cared much. But this spiritual beast in front of him was clearly something beyond a level nine spiritual beast!
Such a huge fortune was lying right there, would one not reach out for it? That would be foolish.
"My name is Bai Xue," the woman in the blue dress looked at Jing Yan and said, frowning slightly as she continued.
"Oh, I’m Jing Yan," Jing Yan responded.
Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Bai Xue’s very attractive eyebrows furrowed again. Because it seemed that this young martial artist didn’t seem to recognize her name at all.
It seemed that he was not a warrior from Duyang City. If he were from Duyang City, he probably would have heard her name.
"The Golden Throne Guard is a type of spiritual beast unique to the area near the Golden Throne Nest, existing solely to defend the nest of the Divine Beast Golden Throne. However, although the Golden Throne Guard is a spiritual beast, it is far from comparable to an ordinary level nine spiritual beast. Inside the body of the Golden Throne Guard, there is the bloodline of a Divine Beast, so it is also considered a Demigod Beast, somewhere between a spiritual beast and a Divine Beast," Bai Xue continued to explain to Jing Yan.
"Uh-huh, no wonder this fellow is so powerful. It almost slapped me to death just now. Lucky I dodged quickly," Jing Yan nodded, commenting on the strength of the Golden Throne Guard.
He felt that the words of this female warrior named Bai Xue should be true. About the Divine Beast Golden Throne that she mentioned, Jing Yan also knew that it was an extremely powerful Divine Beast, very rare in number, and not commonly seen on the continent. Additionally, Golden Throne was known to have a relatively mild temperament, typically not launching attacks against humans unless it was provoked and irritated.
Bai Xue’s mention of the Golden Throne Guard appearing near the Golden Throne Nest meant that in the depths of Sinful Canyon, there must be a Golden Throne Nest.
The Golden Throne Nest was a coveted location; countless martial artists drooled at the thought of it.
Jing Yan’s gaze shifted to Bai Xue.
This Golden Throne Guard was lured out from the depths of Sinful Canyon by Bai Xue, and considering the way it pursued Bai Xue, it was possible that this female warrior named Bai Xue had entered the Golden Throne Nest.
Otherwise, as the Golden Throne Guard’s duty was to defend the nest, it shouldn’t have pursued Bai Xue for so long.
So, what treasures had Bai Xue taken from the Golden Throne Nest?
The Golden Throne Nest was a massive treasure vault, filled with a large amount of resources. Just taking one or two items from it could make anyone envious.
"Your strength is impressive, and you contributed to the killing of the Golden Throne Guard," Bai Xue did not deny Jing Yan’s contribution.
The fight between Bai Xue and the Golden Throne Guard had been intense and closely matched. In fact, Bai Xue was at a disadvantage. Why?
Because although Bai Xue was powerful, her Primordial Energy had its limits. If the fight dragged on, Bai Xue couldn’t keep at her peak condition indefinitely. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept retreating toward the exit of Sinful Canyon.
Jing Yan’s intervention successfully drew the attention of the Golden Throne Guard, exposing its weakness, which allowed Bai Xue to strike decisively, injure the Golden Throne Guard severely, and eventually kill it.
One could say that without Jing Yan’s arrival, Bai Xue truly would have had a difficult time killing the Golden Throne Guard. In the end, Bai Xue might have managed to escape, but whether she would have been injured in the process was uncertain.
Hearing Bai Xue’s words, Jing Yan felt quite relieved. It seemed that this stunningly beautiful female warrior had no intention of denying him credit.
Then it should be easy to discuss the distribution of the resources on the Golden Throne Guard.
Jing Yan smiled, looking at Bai Xue.
But before he could speak, Bai Xue said again, "This Golden Throne Guard, I have use for it, so I’ll be taking it."
Bai Xue said, swinging her arm, a surge of Primordial Energy erupted and enveloped the entire body of the Golden Throne Guard. Then, the colossal figure of the Golden Throne Guard disappeared from Jing Yan’s sight.
It was obvious that Bai Xue had just collected it.
The Sumeru Ring on Jing Yan might not be able to hold such an enormous corpse of a Golden Throne Guard, but Bai Xue clearly possessed a superior Sumeru Ring.
Collecting the corpse of the Golden Throne Guard was a simple task.
What did that mean?
Damn it, what did that mean?
I risked my life, and now I’m not going to get anything?
Jing Yan looked at Bai Xue, wanting to question her, but after thinking about Bai Xue’s strength, he thought better of it. He could only chalk it up to bad luck.
"Jing Yan, I am the City Lord of Yulu City. If you ever need my assistance, feel free to find me in Duyang City," Bai Xue said after collecting the corpse of the Golden Throne Guard. Seeing Jing Yan’s expression, she couldn’t help but smirk before speaking to him again.
That was a promise! A promise from the City Lord of Duyang City, which not just anyone could receive!
The City Lord of Duyang City?
Hmm?
Jing Yan’s eyes flashed as he looked at Bai Xue.
He really hadn’t expected Bai Xue to be the City Lord of Duyang City.
However, his brow furrowed shortly after. After all, the City Lord of Duyang City was not the City Lord of Donglin City. Once he left Moonlight Forest, he would have to return to Donglin City, and it seemed that he didn’t have anything that required the City Lord of Duyang City’s assistance.
"Also, this is for you."
Bai Xue’s gaze shifted as if she had just thought of something. She extended her hand slightly, and then, a massive white egg appeared before Jing Yan.
Indeed, it was a gigantic egg.
Well over a meter tall, too big for one person to wrap their arms around.
"What kind of egg is this?" Jing Yan’s eyes widened as he asked subconsciously.
"I’m not quite sure myself. It’s something I brought out from the nest of the Golden Throne. The Golden Throne has a penchant for collecting various eggs, so this egg could be anything. It might be a common spiritual beast’s egg, or perhaps that of a powerful Divine Beast. Alright, it’s yours now. Do with it as you see fit," Bai Xue said with a slight motion of her arm, pushing the giant egg toward Jing Yan.
She actually entered the Golden Throne Nest?
Was the Divine Beast Golden Throne not at home?
Jing Yan thought if the Divine Beast Golden Throne had been there, it would have been impossible for Bai Xue to escape with her life. It was true that the Golden Throne was of a mild disposition, but had someone intruded into its nest to steal something, and it ignored such an incident, it wouldn’t be a Divine Beast but a foolish one.
Jing Yan looked at the white egg, speechless. Still, he instinctively took it.
What if this egg belonged to some kind of Divine Beast? That would be incredibly precious. If he could hatch this egg, and if it truly contained a Divine Beast, its value would be astronomical.
After carefully inspecting the egg, Jing Yan placed it inside his own Sumeru Ring.
"Alright, Jing Yan, it’s time for me to leave. If you need my help, come find me at the Duyang City Lord Mansion." Bai Xue left these words behind, and with a flicker of her figure, she soared away under Jing Yan’s gaze.
Yes, she was truly soaring.
Bai Xue was clearly a very strong Martial Artist of the Dao Spirit Realm. Martial Artists of the Dao Spirit Realm could rely on their own Primordial Energy to fly through the air for short periods.
This was also why the speed of those in the Dao Spirit Realm could reach such terrifying levels.
