Chapter 480 Mysterious Crystal
"Great! No need for further explanation!"
When Xu Yao heard Yan Xiaohuang say those words, he was deeply moved, especially when he saw the incredibly sincere look in Yan Xiaohuang's eyes. He felt that he had found a kindred spirit!
At the same moment, a feeling of missing a kindred spirit and regretting not meeting sooner surged into his heart at the speed of an old sow crashing into a tree at eighty miles per hour.
"I even considered Brother Yuan an enemy before! Now it seems I was a beast for having such thoughts! I deserve to die!" Xu Yao thought to himself, his eyes already reddening.
Without saying a word, he took out an ancient book with a purple glow from his storage ring and handed it to Yan Xiaohuang without hesitation.
“Brother Yuan! This is a copy of the Taixu Daojing. I am giving it to you today, and I hope you will not find it offensive!” Xu Yao said.
"Gift to me?"
Reaching out to take the copy of the Taixu Daojing, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but be surprised. He was somewhat confused about what the other party meant. Hadn't they clearly agreed on this? It was just a transaction, so how did it suddenly become a one-sided gift?
“That’s right! It’s just a Daoist scripture, why not give it to Brother Yuan? Speaking of which, I have to thank Brother Yuan for reminding me earlier. Now I understand! I think the value of that Immortal Key fragment is far greater than this! To exchange it for just a Daoist scripture is already a huge loss for Brother Yuan! Therefore, in addition to that, I would like to offer a Primordial Divine Material. I hope Brother Yuan will not refuse!”
As he spoke, Xu Yao reached into his storage ring again, and the next moment, a black stone about the size of a fist was taken out.
"What is this?" Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but ask upon seeing this.
“A lightning-struck stone from ten thousand years ago!” Xu Yao replied in a deep voice.
"Hiss! You're saying this is... this is a 100,000-year-old lightning-struck stone?"
“That’s right!” Xu Yao nodded and said, “This item is an excellent material for forging immortal weapons and divine artifacts! If I remember correctly, Brother Yuan, you cultivate the Thunder Dao, right? This item is perfectly suited to you!”
"Where did you get this?" Yan Xiaohuang asked.
"Hehe, to be honest, Brother Yuan, I took this from the body of the Holy Son of the Thunder Emperor Pavilion!"
"The Holy Son of the Thunder Emperor Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, a figure flashed through Yan Xiaohuang's mind: an arrogant young man with purple hair and wearing lightning armor, whose strength was extremely high and whose methods should not be underestimated.
"How did you get this rare item from him? Didn't he fight you to the death?"
"Fight to the death? Heh!" Xu Yao sneered. "He certainly fought to the death! But he couldn't beat me and was killed by me!"
"Huh? You killed him?" Yan Xiaohuang exclaimed in shock upon hearing this.
“That’s right!” Xu Yao nodded in agreement.
"hiss!"
Upon hearing Xu Yao's answer, Yan Xiaohuang gasped in shock, his eyes filled with horror as he looked at Xu Yao.
The news that Xu Yao killed the Holy Son of the Thunder Emperor Pavilion is incredibly shocking! He must have met the Holy Son of the Thunder Emperor Pavilion before; he was definitely not a kind person and was much stronger than the average Holy Son or Holy Daughter. Unexpectedly, Xu Yao actually killed him. It seems that his strength must also be extraordinary, at least no weaker than the Chaotic Emperor's Son.
"Forget it! This thing is too valuable! Brother Xuyao, you should keep it for yourself! This one copy of the Taixu Dao Scripture is enough for me!"
Without a second thought, Yan Xiaohuang decisively rejected Xu Yao. At the same time, he didn't forget to hand the fragment of the Immortal Key to Xu Yao.
He wasn't the kind of person who was greedy. Although he liked to take advantage of others in the meantime, he would only do so if the situation was right. After all, it was something that others had risked their lives to obtain, and he didn't have the face to take it from them.
Moreover, he was well aware of the true value of this Immortal Key fragment, and the reason why Xu Yao agreed to the exchange was entirely due to his persuasive words; otherwise, the other party might not have agreed.
At the same time, seeing that Yan Xiaohuang had decisively rejected him, Xu Yao was displeased. He immediately questioned in a deep voice, "Brother Yuan, what do you mean by this? Do you look down on me?"
"Huh? No!" Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head and replied.
"Then why doesn't Brother Yuan accept this item?"
"Well, you went through so much trouble to get this, I feel unworthy of it!" Yan Xiaohuang explained.
"Hmph! He's just a mere Holy Son of the Thunder Emperor Pavilion. Although I was defeated by Meng Jiuxian, killing him would be a piece of cake! Brother Yuan, please don't refuse, just accept him!"
"Well... alright! I'll accept it!"
With that, Yan Xiaohuang reached out and took the lightning-struck stone, then placed it into his storage space in front of Xu Yao.
He accepted it in the end. After all, Xu Yao had already said so much, and if he refused again, he would really be looking down on him.
However, as the old saying goes, it is impolite not to reciprocate! Since Xu Yao has been so generous, Yan Xiaohuang naturally cannot appear too stingy.
Immediately, he took out something and handed it to Xu Yao.
It was an oval crystal with a purple glow, engraved with ancient and mysterious incantations. Although its aura was restrained, its appearance was extremely extraordinary, even somewhat eerie. It resembled someone's eyeball. However, even so, it could not conceal its preciousness. In any case, it was definitely a good treasure!
"This is a spoil of war that I obtained after a great battle with someone. I don't know what it's for! If Brother Xuyao doesn't mind, please accept it!" Yan Xiaohuang said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, upon seeing what Yan Xiaohuang handed over, Xu Yao's expression changed drastically. He quickly looked up and asked, "Brother Yuan, tell me the truth, from whom did you obtain this?"
"What makes you say that?" Yan Xiaohuang asked in return.
"Brother Yuan, do you know what this is?"
"I don't know!" Yan Xiaohuang slowly shook his head and replied truthfully.
He truly had no idea what it was!
Speaking of which, he actually found this thing on the corpse of the Chaotic Emperor! Moreover, Yao Shu and the Spirit Ancient Divine Ape were all present at the time, and none of them recognized it, so he didn't take it seriously and simply threw it into his storage space.
However, judging from the meaning behind Xu Yao's words, this seems to be an extraordinary treasure.
"Brother Yuan, have you ever heard of the Chaos Ancient Clan from the primordial era?" Xu Yao asked.
"The Chaos Ancient Clan?" Yan Xiaohuang was taken aback, then shook his head and replied, "No!"
"I see! Since you haven't heard of this ancient clan, Brother Yuan, it's no wonder you don't know what this thing is!" Xu Yao replied with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaohuang couldn't help but feel a surge of interest and asked, "What do you mean by that, Brother Xuyao?"
