Chapter 188 A Gift! "Hiss!!~~"
As soon as Cang Wanli finished speaking, a collective gasp filled the entire hall.
Standing to the side, the sect leader of the Heaven-Dominating Sect Xue Changfeng, and the other elders listened to Cang Wanli's words, their lips twitching slightly, and a look of heartache flashed in their eyes.
Five Yuan Crystal!
Although the Heaven-Dominating Sect is a large and Heaven-Dominating Sect organization, fifty Yuan Crystal is still a considerable sum for the entire Heaven-Dominating Sect, almost equivalent to at least twenty years of its total revenue.
Even in a sacred martial arts land, maintaining such a large sect requires considerable expenditure.
How could their own Supreme Elder not feel heartbroken to give away so many Yuan Crystal like this?!
Not to mention that Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade.
That was a supreme treasure of the Thunder Dao, even rarer than the Violet Thunder Divine Gold.
Legend has it that the Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade was born in the core of the Nine Heavens Thunder Domain, and it took shape by absorbing the essence of thunder for thousands of years. It can not only greatly increase the cultivation speed of thunder- Life-Bound Treasure, but also increase the divinity of the Life-Bound Treasure when it is forged. It is even said that it can be used to forge legendary holy artifacts. It is a divine material that countless Martial Emperor Realm specialize in the thunder path dream of.
However, considering that the person Cang Wanli was sending was the new Supreme Elder who was about to join their Heaven-Dominating Sect, it was a case of keeping the benefits within the family, and Xue Changfeng and the others' expressions improved somewhat.
The Shen Zongyue family of three standing to the side remained calm, showing no signs of the astonishment or shock experienced by the others.
Having witnessed Chen An's meteoric rise in just a few days, they had seen countless amazing opportunities and rare treasures, and were no longer surprised by them.
Furthermore, their perspective was limited. They only heard that Xuan Zhantian and Cang Wanli had successively given away large sums of money and treasures. They could understand that 5 Yuan Crystal was a terrifyingly large sum of money, but they couldn't distinguish the terrifying value hidden behind the Violet Thunder Divine Gold and the Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade. They didn't know how rare these two divine materials were in the martial arts world, and how many Martial Emperor Realm couldn't obtain them. Naturally, they couldn't understand the shock that was rising and falling among the people in the hall.
When Xuan Zhantian saw the Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade that Cang Wanli had given him, his smile froze for a moment, and then he shook his head and chuckled.
He thought that offering the Violet Thunder Divine Gold was enough to show goodwill, but he didn't expect that the old fox Cang Wanli would go to such lengths to bind Chen An.
But upon further reflection, he felt it was perfectly reasonable.
Martial Emperor Realm at the age of seventeen—not only in this era, but even if you search through all the ancient classics, you won't find another like him.
Such a person, regardless of what the future holds, is worthy of these things even in the present.
Only the sect leaders of the Blazing Sun Sect, the Galaxy Sword Sect, and the Mountain-Shaking Sect, who were standing not far away, witnessed this scene. After their initial shock, they couldn't help but look at each other in disbelief.
Although they received an invitation to attend the inauguration ceremony of the new Heaven-Dominating Sect Elder of the Batian Sect, they also learned that the new Supreme Elder of the Heaven-Dominating Sect was a martial arts prodigy with extraordinary talent and young age. He had even killed a Demon Emperor's clone before becoming an Emperor, indirectly contributing to the great victory of the Northern Frontier.
Therefore, they brought many rare gifts and treasures to attend this ceremony.
At most, it would be a King-level divine weapon, ten thousand-year-old precious herbs, and one or two hundred million Yuan Crystal. These would be considered extremely high-level gifts for an ordinary grand ceremony, enough to uphold the prestige of the Martial Arts Holy Land.
Who would have thought that Xuan Zhantian would directly take out 2 Yuan Crystal plus a piece of Violet Thunder Divine Gold, while Cang Wanli was even more extravagant, throwing out 5 Yuan Crystal plus a piece of Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade.
What are they supposed to do?!
If they deliver it the way they did before, wouldn't they be made to feel inferior on the spot?!
As top martial arts holy lands of the Human Race, if the gifts they give are so disparate, they will not only be ridiculed for being stingy and miserly, but may also make people think that the three sects are looking down on this new Supreme Elder of the Heaven-Dominating Sect and offending this rare new Martial Emperor Realm expert.
At that moment, the sect leaders of the three sects of the Blazing Sun Sect could only endure the pain, reach into their robes, and secretly take out some of their savings and put them into the Sumera Bag they had prepared beforehand.
"Haha, Brother Cang, you're too kind. I'm also a Supreme Elder of the Heaven-Dominating Sect. I hope you'll give me more guidance in the future!" Chen An smiled as he accepted the Sumera Bag from Cang Wanli's hand.
He didn't care much about things like the Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade.
But even he, upon hearing the figure of 5 billion Yuan Crystal, couldn't help but feel his breathing quicken slightly.
Fifty Yuan Crystal, plus the twenty Yuan Crystal Xuan Zhantian just gave me, that's a total of seven billion.
He couldn't even imagine how much his cultivation could improve after this ceremony with so much money!
"Hahaha, Brother Chen, you flatter me. I am getting old, and the Heaven-Dominating Sect will need you to take charge in the future!" Cang Wanli laughed heartily, his eyes full of pride.
At that moment, only he knew that what seemed like a huge loss had actually brought him a huge gain!
Let alone a mere few Yuan Crystal and a piece of Nine Heavens Thunder God Jade, if it weren't for the fear of causing a sensation, he wouldn't hesitate to give Chen An the entire treasure trove of the Heaven-Dominating Sect right now, or even make him kneel down and kowtow to become his disciple.
"Greetings, Elder Chen. Let me introduce you. This is Ruan Cangke of the Blazing Sun Sect, Sect Master Yun Xiao Galaxy Sword Sect, and Sect Master Lu Mountain-Shaking Sect Lu Jingfeng Sect!" At this moment, Xue Changfeng walked over and introduced them to Chen An.
" Ruan Cangke ( Yun Xiao, Lu Jingfeng ) pays his respects to Emperor Chen!"
The three of them stepped forward at the opportune moment and bowed respectfully to Chen An.
"Thank you for coming all this way, three sect leaders. No need for such formalities!" Chen An glanced at the three of them, smiled and nodded slightly, offering his right hand in a gesture of support.
"No, no!"
Hearing Chen An's words, the three were flattered. Ruan Cangke, the sect leader of the Blazing Sun Sect, stepped forward first, holding a crimson Sumera Bag in both hands, and said, "It is an honor for us to be able to attend Your Emperor Chen's grand ceremony!"
"In this battle between the Northern Frontier and the Ancient Devil Race, it was all thanks to Your Emperor Chen for slaying the Demon Emperor's avatar. Elder Luo even sent a special message asking us to express our sincere gratitude to Your Emperor Chen."
"This is but a small token of my respect; I hope Your Emperor Chen will accept it with pleasure!"
"Brother Luo, you're too kind!"
Chen An smiled slightly, and with a thought, the Sumera Bag flew into his hand. He said calmly, "Resisting the Devil Race race is the duty of Human Race cultivators, so there's no need to worry about it. Sect Master Ruan has come from afar and even prepared gifts; I feel quite indebted to him."
" Your Emperor Chen, you flatter me!"
Seeing this, Galaxy Sword Sect's Zong Yun Xiao and Mountain-Shaking Sect's Sect Master Lie Jingfeng dared not delay and stepped forward to present the congratulatory gifts they had prepared in advance.
After Chen An exchanged pleasantries with everyone, it was almost time for the ceremony. At Xue Changfeng's invitation, Chen An and the others strode out of the hall...
