Chapter 167 The Elf Queen’s Oath

'Twice that of an ordinary Great Emperor...' Qin Yuan's eyes shone as he saw the mission.

He didn't get any more missions for an ordinary Great Emperor, but this was no ordinary Great Emperor.

'However, maybe I can't kill him even with the help of the Scarlet Queen.'

Qin Yuan looked at the man.

His aura was truly deep and sharp.

The man also looked at him and the Scarlet Queen.

His flying swords returned to his hands the moment he saw them, especially the Scarlet Queen.

Far enough away from him, was the Elf Queen.

The black robe she was wearing had been ripped quite a bit and there were several slashes on her body.

She was a little surprised that Qin Yuan did not come alone.

The atmosphere was a bit tense for some time.

That man, the Sky Sword Great Emperor was the first to speak.

"Queen Scarlet, I didn't expect you to get here so quickly, it seems my will has to stop here," he said.

He also looked at Qin Yuan.

Like the others, he too knitted his brows.

And right after he spoke, the Scarlet Queen's scythe appeared in her hand.

"Even if today I can't kill you, I will still cut off your hand," she said.

Whoosh!

She moved, appeared directly in front of the Sky Sword Great Emperor and slashed her scythe at him.

Qin Yuan did not expect that she would directly attack after just one word.

Clang!

The Sky Sword Great Emperor parried the Scarlet Queen's scythe with his two swords.

Even so, he was still thrown, crashing into a tree behind him.

Great Scarlet and Eternal Scarlet who were standing behind Qin Yuan immediately charged towards him.

Qin Yuan did not move immediately, he flew towards the Elf Queen who was constantly staring at him.

With a faint smile, Qin Yuan said to her.

"Queen, our meeting this time was a bit unexpected, but in the future, we will be partners in one sect, I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

While saying that, he threw some high quality pills at him.

"Heal yourself first," he added.

The Elf Queen received the pills as they landed in her hand.

However, her gaze was still fixed on Qin Yuan.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "how did you come with that woman?"

Qin Yuan didn't sense any other intent in her question other than out of curiosity.

He shrugged as he replied, "anything can be done as long as we pay enough price, I'm just doing it to get her help."

Qin Yuan purposely said that in order to make the Elf Queen feel deeply indebted.

But after hearing that, the Queen suddenly knitted her brows.

"You paid it just so I could join your sect? -- Unless I'm wrong, the price you paid should be worth more than my life," she said.

Although her suspicions were not something Qin Yuan wanted, he was still not at his wits' end.

Shaking his head, he replied, "Your way of thinking is wrong, Queen."

"What is wrong?" asked the Queen.

"I don't think you ever read romantic stories... Don't you know, there are so many men in this world who do everything for women, even risking their lives."

Elf Queen, "..."

While her expression froze, Qin Yuan continued, "I'm not saying that I'm obsessed with you, but in the Divine World, you may be the most meritorious woman and I know that in the future you will do more to help the Divine World.

"Don't think that only commoners will be sad if you die... I don't want to see that either... If I can help you, why not?

"As for why I want you to become a member of my sect, I just want you to be a part of what I build and what I strive for in the future."

Qin Yuan was pretty sure that the Elf Queen would not betray him, so for the time being, she would also not discover that he had any mysterious way of tying up his sect members. This is on the condition that he does not give her an order that she refuses.

Maybe some people knew about it, but Qin Yuan could keep them from telling her.

When she did find out in the future, she probably wouldn't feel any pressure as long as he didn't try to bother her.

Maybe by then, they had already become lovers. Who knows.

The Elf Queen's lips parted slightly after she heard Qin Yuan's words.

She looked at him with a somewhat amazed expression.

In the Divine World where supreme beings live only for their own sake, what Qin Yuan said was indeed a bit too kind.

The others would probably laugh and think he was a hypocrite if they heard that.

Whether he was a hypocrite or not, Qin Yuan was also unsure.

But it was also true that he didn't want to see the Elf Queen die.

This woman is unique.

He might have to find another horde of Elves if he wanted to find one like her.

Even though there were women with characteristics like her, they didn't have those unique pointed ears.

"So what do you think, Queen?" Qin Yuan asked seeing she was still not responding.

She didn't answer right away, her gaze turned to the battle.

Only some time had passed and the forest where they had fought had almost disappeared, leaving only the trees that had been cut down.

"Okay!" The Elf Queen finally nodded.

"I don't want any position, but I also don't want to get really attached or do something that doesn't need my help," she said.

"I just want your status as a member of my sect," Qin Yuan replied.

The Elf Queen nodded again. And silent after that.

"Queen..." Qin Yuan had no other choice but to call her again.

The Elf Queen looked at him.

"You haven't sworn," said Qin Yuan.

The queen's lips pursed slightly after hearing that.

And then, her mouth opened as she said, "I swear that I will be loyal to the Heaven Smiting Sect as a member!"

Ding!

(You have successfully recruited someone of equal strength to the Great Emperor to your sect, you have earned 50,000 Karma Points.)

[Karma Points: 727,900]

"Uh..."

Qin Yuan was surprised when he saw the notice and suddenly remembered that there was a mission to recruit members into his sect.

All conditions were met, he did not resort to coercion or threats and the Elf Queen also had no intention of joining his sect, it was all purely due to negotiations so that he got the reward.

"This is what you wanted..." The Elf Queen suddenly threw an object at Qin Yuan which was a Heavenly Scripture Fragment.

Ding!

[You managed to obtain 1 Heavenly Scripture Fragment, you gained 320,000 Karma Points. The next one you will get 640,000 Karma Points.]

[Karma Points: 1,047,900]

'Finally the Karma Points crossed the 1 million mark.'

Qin Yuan's eyes shone brightly.

There were now two Fragments in his hand that he had not read.

It wasn't that he didn't want to read them, but he wanted to save up to pay for turning into a Divine Beast.

Right now he needed 500,000 Karma Points, but the System said that it could get more expensive later and for now, he still didn't have a decent Ultimate Blood Essence.
