Chapter 1141: 595: Opportunity Gained, Shuzhou Shaken! - I Have A Qi Fortune Altar

Chapter 1141: Chapter 595: Opportunity Gained, Shuzhou Shaken!

Chen Yuan laughed.

“Marquis, please feel free to ask.”

“I need a Spiritual Object for cultivation, and according to the information I gathered, this Spiritual Object is now in the possession of the Shangguan Family, so… whether it’s an equivalent exchange or purchase with Primordial Crystals, I hope Uncle can grant me this object.”

“Marquis, you are too courteous. Since the Shangguan Family has this Spiritual Object, we should naturally gift it to Marquis for use, but I wonder what this Spiritual Object is?” Shangguan Tiehong echoed and asked.

“Ice Marrow Divine Jade.”

Chen Yuan spoke four words.

“Ice Marrow Divine Jade?”

Shangguan Tiehong and Shangguan Yu’s faces flashed a hint of confusion, Shangguan Yu had never heard of such a Spiritual Object’s name, while Shangguan Tiehong knew his family’s situation and seemed… there wasn’t anything similar to this name either.

Frowning, he opened his mouth and said:

“Marquis, could you be mistaken? Ice Marrow… Divine Jade… At the Shangguan Clan’s treasury, there’s no such object, or does this object have another name?”

Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered, understanding the hidden secrets within, guided by the Qi Fortune Altar’s chance, it turned out even the Shangguan Family themselves didn’t know, which matches past experiences.

He remained calm and continued:

“Uncle, don’t worry. Although this object is within the Shangguan Clan, it’s unknown to you, because this object is at the bottom of the Shangguan Family’s Cold Pond.”

“How does Marquis know about the Cold Pond in the Shangguan Family?” Shangguan Tiehong felt a chill down his spine as the Cold Pond was a secret place of the Shangguan Family.

Except for the Family Head, no one knows.

Even Shangguan Yu doesn’t know now.

Now hearing this information from Chen Yuan, an ‘outsider,’ it’s hard for him to accept.

“I wasn’t deliberately spying, just acquired the knowledge through other channels, the Ice Marrow Divine Jade is indeed at the bottom of the Cold Pond, there’s no mistake, so… I hope Uncle can bear to part with it.”

Chen Yuan didn’t explain much, as he couldn’t clarify it.

The more said, the more mistakes made, he simply skipped this problem.

“I wonder what Marquis needs this object for?”

“For cultivation.”

Shangguan Tiehong didn’t immediately agree, while Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong wanted to agree but knew their family name, opening their mouths directly would be too unruly, so they remained silent.

Shangguan Tiehong hesitated for a moment, instinctively glancing at Chen Yuan, catching his smiling expression, making his heart give a jolt for some unknown reason.

He immediately understood, with Chen Yuan’s methods and capabilities, if he wanted this object, he could take it by force as he was determined to have it.

Speaking now was merely considering their relationship.

If they refused, it might lead to a fallout, of course, it could be bypassed, but such a matter can’t be gambled, just having associated with Chen Yuan, how could they let one Spiritual Object spoil things?

With the power and means Chen Yuan demonstrated today, the future seems unimaginable.

They must better hold onto this potential stock.

“Marquis rest assured, since you voiced it, I definitely promise. If the Ice Marrow Divine Jade is truly in the Cold Pond within the clan, it will be delivered to Shuzhou City within a few days.”

“Well… Thank you, Uncle. I won’t take this object for free; you may set a condition.”

The value of the Ice Marrow Divine Jade needs no elaboration, such rare Spiritual Objects in the world can’t be measured simply with some Primordial Crystals, and he isn’t someone who takes advantage.

As long as he can afford it, he will make amends.

But Shangguan Tiehong just waved his hand, chuckling lightly:

“This will be a dowry for Hong’er.”

“Father…”

Shangguan Hong’s face flashed a blush, feeling a bit embarrassed in front of so many people.

“Alright, since Uncle says so, I won’t refuse. I’ll certainly present the Shangguan Family with a satisfactory betrothal gift in the future.” Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Seeing a few people discussing this matter, Shangguan Yu interjected:

“Brother Chen, how do you plan to handle the Bright Temple?”

He understood Chen Yuan’s personality, always feeling that due to the Yao Xin incident, Qingzhou, and even the Southern region might not remain peaceful.

“The abbot of Bright Temple attacked a court official, for which he should be executed. Since he is the mastermind, the monks of Bright Temple are accomplices, so it shall be handled by court law.”

Before acting, the initiative was in Yao Xin’s hands, but after acting, Chen Yuan found an excuse for extermination, the Bright Temple built over two hundred years may bring him quite a lot of resources.

Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Tiehong exchanged a glance, continued to ask:

“Do you need the Shangguan Clan to get involved?”

“No need, this isn’t a Jianghu matter, but a court affair, it doesn’t require any of you currently, just swiftly bring the Ice Marrow Divine Jade to me, that’ll be a huge help.”

“If so, then we’ll take our leave. I will immediately return to the clan territory to seek out the Spiritual Object.” Seeing Chen Yuan’s urgency, Shangguan Tiehong didn’t delay any longer.

“Thank you, Uncle.”

Chen Yuan got up to see them off, escorting them to the gates of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau.

Only Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong stayed behind.

“Sir, the three hundred Heavenly Patrol Guards have assembled.” Lu Renyi hurriedly approached and reported.

“You all set off first, drawing elite forces along the way, heading directly to Qingzhou Bright Temple!” Chen Yuan said calmly.

After dealing with Yao Xin, he had already given orders to start gathering select forces within Shuzhou City, ready to ignite the first fire.

Although not in Shuzhou, Qingzhou was right next door; the effect should still be evident.

“As you command!”

Lu Renyi bowed and retreated.

“Brother Chen, are you going to act now?” Shangguan Yu asked.

“Don’t leave overnight grudges…..”
