Wen Yu felt no need to be secretive about this matter; indeed, he didn't have to be.
In Wen Yu's eyes, the entire Heavenly Palace had already beco his personal property!
In other words, when Wen Yu sat before Tang Haofei, discussing what they terd an "alliance," the fundantal nature of the situation had already shifted.
The entity sitting at the negotiating table with the military was no longer the entire Universe of Immortals and Heroes, but Wen Yu as an individual.
Wen Yu wasn't wrong. As long as the military offered enough benefits, what would it matter if he sold them all the advantages within the Heavenly Palace, or even the Heavenly Palace itself?
Such brazen statents made Tang Haofei fall completely silent. Old Tang even paused his introduction of Earth.
After a mont, Tang Haofei took a deep breath, realizing the situation had drastically changed.
Negotiations between factions differ from those between a faction and an individual. Generally, dealings between factions are more complex and cumberso, involving nurous considerations. Interactions with individuals are far simpler. It usually boils down to intimidation or enticent.
However, under the current circumstances, with Wen Yu having the full backing of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, intimidation was now a pipe dream. Given Wen Yu's exorbitant demands, enticent remained Tang Haofei's only path.
Moreover, from Tang Haofei's perspective, standing at the pinnacle of the military and the entire Human Race, his viewpoint was fundantally different from Wen Yu's.
An SSS-Class skill in exchange for technology—is it worth it?
For Wen Yu, technology was worthless. Even if it were freely given to him, he'd consider it a waste of space.
But for the military, there was no need to discuss which held greater value.
Brief consideration quickly led to a decision.
In less than a minute, Old Tang resud speaking, discussing the history of human civilization on Earth. anwhile, Tang Haofei covertly sent a Spiritual Fluctuation to Wen Yu.
"I agree to your terms."
"Don't you need to discuss it with Lin Haifeng?"
"There's no need. I have the authority for an SSS-Class light-type skill!"
Hearing Tang Haofei's answer, Wen Yu felt a twinge of regret. He had beco so impressively powerful, seemingly overnight. Not being able to astound that old fox Lin Haifeng made life feel sowhat incomplete.
Fortunately, he still understood what was truly important. Showing off is trivial; securing benefits is paramount.
With this in mind, Wen Yu spoke directly to Tang Haofei in Chinese.
"Indeed, the scenery on Earth has fascinated . But as it's getting late, how about this: I'll have Mo Xuan arrange accommodations for our friends from another world first. We can discuss the rest in more detail tomorrow."
"As it should be," Tang Haofei replied in a rather archaic manner.
Mo Xuan directed soone to escort Tang Haofei away, then stood silently by Wen Yu's side.
anwhile, Wen Yu sipped a delicious beverage, eyes narrowed in thought as he pondered the recent events.
The changes had co too quickly, too unexpectedly. This 'simple' shift in his status as 'Young Master' had completely disrupted all of Wen Yu's original plans.
Fortunately, these changes were all positive.
It was precisely because of his status as 'Young Master' that Wen Yu could openly extort Tang Haofei and the military!
Undoubtedly, this ti, not even counting the potential gains from the upper levels of the Heavenly Palace, the military alone would provide enough for to completely upgrade all my skills!
However, there is the matter of my physical constitution…
And the matter of the divine beast species…
Wen Yu couldn't possibly refuse the status of possessing dual divine beast types. Yet, with the Dominator having intervened, he knew the situation wasn't as perfect as he had imagined. If the Dominator beca displeased, they could shut down the Heavenly Palace Treasure Land completely, rendering my status null and void! Similarly, my plan to absorb the Origin Energy of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes and beco one of its divine beasts would be completely derailed! Hoping for benefits at that point? I'd be counting my lucky stars if the Dominator didn't hold accountable!
While the benefits of this status appear boundless on the surface, the hidden risks are far more terrifying than any I've ever encountered!
Shaking his head, Wen Yu quickly banished those thoughts.
Things were as they were; his status as 'Young Master' was now firmly established. As for how things will develop from here, I can't predict. I'll just have to take it one step at a ti, following the path laid out by the Almighty Immortal Emperor.
"What should we do next?"
When in doubt, ask. And who better to consult about the current situation than the Almighty Demon Vine?
"Wait. Wait here for a mont. Wait for word from above, then proceed with the next step!"
"What about the Origin Energy of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes?" Wen Yu asked quietly. The source of my skills is settled, and enhancing my physical constitution isn't imdiately pressing. Obtaining Earth's Origin Energy is sothing to consider only after returning there. So, the most critical thing before now is undoubtedly the Origin Energy of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes!
"Of course, take it! Just go for it! Isn't that what you're here for?"
The response from the Almighty Demon Vine made Wen Yu purse his lips. Would I really pass up such a good opportunity? I'm not soone who just goes around asking for handouts.
Then, Wen Yu turned to Mo Xuan, who was standing beside him.
"Mo Xuan."
"Yes, Young Master."
"Does our Ling Yun City warehouse contain any items or artifacts imbued with Origin Energy?"
"Yes, Young Master. However, the quantity is very small. The technique for postnatally transforming beings into divine beasts isn't considered advanced technology in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. Originally, the Origin Energy in the warehouse was sufficient to create five divine beasts. However, it was all consud during the last great battle, leaving an amount likely insufficient for your Evolution into a divine beast, Young Master."
Mo Xuan had imdiately discerned Wen Yu's intentions, so his explanation was more detailed.
"Sigh..." Wen Yu feigned a sigh of disappointnt.
"Whatever amount there is will have to do. Give the order to bring that Origin Energy to , along with the other items I just requested."
"Yes, Young Master."
Mo Xuan acknowledged the order and turned to leave, but Wen Yu imdiately stopped him.
"By the way, you ntioned the technique for postnatally transforming beings into divine beasts. Do you have detailed information on that?"
"Yes, Young Master," Mo Xuan replied respectfully. For the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, such a simple technique was as common as publicly available technical data on Earth.
"Does Ling Yun City possess the thod to produce Enlightennt items?"
"That's even simpler. So small workshops can produce them independently!"
"Hmm..."
