Chapter 64: Are You Worthy

Chapter 64: Are You Worthy

The strengths and territories of the Yuan Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom are similar, and naturally, the Crown Prince of the Yuan Kingdom is also incredibly noble.

But even such a noble figure would show such a humble attitude towards Su Zhan?

Su Zhan, what qualifications does he have to be treated like this by the Crown Prince of the Yuan Kingdom?? Xia Qitian was extremely puzzled.

"Brother Cheng, come in!" Knowing that the one who came to repay the debt had arrived, Su Zhan looked at Cheng Yunmo and smiled slightly.

Cheng Yunmo walked in, glanced at Xia Qitian, and then held out a light blue armor with both hands, presenting it to Su Zhan.

"Brother Su, this is the Dragon Scale Armor, a high-grade Profound Artifact. It has strong defense, and when fighting in water, wearing this armor can greatly reduce resistance!"

"This item is indeed a treasure." Su Zhan touched the scales with two fingers, infused his true qi, and his gaze fell on the intricate inscriptions. He nodded in approval.

He stored the Dragon Scale Armor in his storage ring, and at the same time, a promissory note appeared in his hand, which he handed to Cheng Yunmo.

"As long as Brother Su is satisfied. Actually, this visit is not just for this matter."

Cheng Yunmo took the promissory note and smiled, "My father has heard of Brother Su's deeds and greatly admires you. If Brother Su has time, I would like to invite you to visit our Yuan Kingdom. We may not have much else, but we have many tamed demonic beasts. By then, Brother Su can freely choose a fifth-rank demonic beast as a mount!"

Fifth-rank demonic beast!

Xia Qitian, who was standing by, was shocked to hear this. That is equivalent to a Origin Elixir Realm cultivator!

And because demonic beasts are difficult to tame, their value far exceeds that of a Origin Elixir Realm guard. Cheng Yunmo even said it's a casual choice Does that include late fifth-rank demonic beasts?

Su Zhan, can actually make the Crown Prince value him so much?! Could it be that it's not just because of his divine body? Could it be that Su Zhan has other outstanding qualities?

Xia Qitian secretly wondered, and his desire to recruit Su Zhan became even stronger.

"No need, thank you for the kind offer from the Crown Prince. If Brother Cheng has no other matters, please take your leave!"

"Alright"

Cheng Yunmo felt somewhat disappointed but didn't dare to continue entangling. He cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave. Whenever Brother Su visits our Yuan Kingdom, I will warmly welcome you!"

"Okay, thank you, Brother Cheng." Su Zhan nodded.

As he watched Cheng Yunmo walk away without even saying a greeting, Xia Qitian spoke displeasedly, "Prince Cheng, don't you recognize me anymore?"

"How could I not recognize Prince Xia?"

Cheng Yunmo smiled and waved his hand, "I have other matters to attend to, so I won't chat with Prince Xia."

After speaking, Cheng Yunmo left directly, without any intention of saying more to Xia Qitian.

Xia Qitian's face darkened. He was the Crown Prince, while Su Zhan was just a disciple of the Sword Sect, but in front of Cheng Yunmo, it seemed like Su Zhan was the Crown Prince!

This contrast made Xia Qitian very unhappy.

"Su Zhan, Cheng Yunmo promised you a fifth-rank demonic beast as a mount, and so can I!"

"Do you have a hearing problem, Crown Prince?"

Ouyang Mu pointed at Xia Qitian's nose and cursed, "Even your father begged me to help him refine a weapon, and what are you, a piece of shit? How dare you speak to me like this? If it weren't for Su Zhan's face, I would give you a big slap!"

Upon hearing this, Su Zhan smiled and said, "Master Ouyang, there's no need to consider my face. Please go ahead!"

"Good! I can't stand these arrogant and bullying scoundrels!"

Ouyang Mu didn't hesitate upon hearing Su Zhan's words. He raised his hand and slapped Xia Qitian.

Xia Qitian exclaimed in fear, "Master Ouyang, please"

"Smack!"

A rough palm slapped his face, causing Xia Qitian to stagger a few steps to the side. There were five distinct finger marks on his cheek.

"Master Ouyang, you!" Xia Qitian clenched his fists, feeling greatly humiliated and filled with hatred in his eyes.

"What? You're not satisfied? Let your father come and find me!" Ouyang Mu sneered.

His identity was special, and countless strong individuals had sought his favor and made requests of him. Even in the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, half-step Fish-Dragon Realm powerhouses like Qin Jincheng and Chen Changfeng showed utmost respect to him and yielded to his wishes.

He didn't even care about the King of Xia Kingdom, let alone Xia Qitian, a junior.

Xia Qitian understood all this in his heart and knew that if the King found out about his offense against Master Ouyang, he would likely be severely reprimanded.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Qitian suppressed his anger and clasped his hands, saying, "Apologies, Master Ouyang. It was my, no, the younger generation's lack of manners!"

"Hmph! That's more like it!" Ouyang Mu snorted coldly and turned to walk towards Su Zhan.

Su Zhan actually knows Master Ouyang! Looking at the two of them, their relationship seems quite good. Could it be that Su Zhan is Master Ouyang's secret disciple?

No wonder! No wonder he doesn't care about me at all In front of Master Ouyang, indeed, I am nothing.

Xia Qitian felt a bit bitter in his heart and began to speculate about the relationship between Su Zhan and Ouyang Mu. This only strengthened his determination to recruit Su Zhan!

A genius valued by Master Ouyang would undoubtedly possess great influence among the fifteen kingdoms.

With this in mind, Xia Qitian forced a smile and said, "Master Ouyang, I also have some understanding of the art of weapon refinement. Why don't I join Su Zhan and listen to your insights?"

"If Su Zhan doesn't understand something, I can also explain on the side, so as not to burden you, Master Ouyang!"

"You want to explain to Su Zhan?"

Ouyang Mu was momentarily stunned, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

Xia Qitian replied naturally, "Yes! Is there a problem with that?"

"I have been studying under the palace's master of weapon refinement since I was young. Although I rarely refine weapons myself, I have considerable theoretical knowledge. I should be able to explain to Su Zhan"

"Shut up!"

Finally unable to bear it any longer, Master Ouyang angrily interrupted, "Even I have come here to seek advice from Su Zhan. What qualifications do you have to say such things?"

"You think you can explain the art of weapon refinement to Su Zhan? Are you worthy??"
