Tian Yuan

"Tell me carefully."

Chen Qingyuan became interested.

"At that time, I had just started practicing cultivation. I heard that a strong man possessed an invincible talent. He seized the opportunity to prove his Dao, but did not ascend to the throne. This shocked all walks of life in Shenzhou. Although he was not a king, his strength was in a unique class and no one could match him."

Zhao Jianghe looked back on the past.

"Peach Blossom Fairy?"

Through this information, Chen Qingyuan said a name with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"That's right!" Zhao Jianghe was shocked. He didn't expect that the Taoist in front of him could guess it so easily. He was really smart. "You figured it out immediately. I admire you."

If it was true, Chen Qingyuan showed a strange expression.

A person who was almost a contemporary of Wang Taohua, living three million years ago.

"What is your relationship with...the Peach Blossom Fairy?"

Chen Qingyuan wanted to call Wang Taohua by her real name, but he quickly held back. When you are out, you still have to save some face for your old friend and maintain your dignity.

"It's not related." Zhao Jianghe said with emotion: "I was fortunate enough to see the figure of Venerable Taohua. Later, when I entered the realm of Divine Bridge, I heard that Venerable Taohua had passed away and I had no chance to see him again."

The mighty being at the ninth step of the Divine Bridge is indeed a great figure in every era, but in the vast river of history, he is at most an inconspicuous speck of dust, and it is difficult to be recorded in the major ancient books and secret texts.

Therefore, Chen Qingyuan flipped through the historical books in his sea of ​​consciousness, but still could not find any information about Zhao Jianghe's identity. He thought it was not a very impressive person.

"Okay, let's talk business."

If this guy has some relationship with Peach Blossom Fairy, then Chen Qingyuan will show him some mercy and find a way to cheat Peach Blossom Fairy later. After all, this guy has a lot of good things.

Zhao Jianghe's body trembled, he stood in awe, and reiterated: "What happened before was really not my intention."

"Whether it was your intention or not, you did it anyway, so you have to pay the price."

Chen Qingyuan said indifferently.

"Indeed, I am willing to do my best to make up for your loss."

As long as he can save his life, Zhao Jianghe is willing to bow his head and make amends.

"What are you standing there for? Hand over all your belongings."

Chen Qingyuan felt that he was still too kind.

"Give."

Immediately, Zhao Jianghe emptied his family's savings, passed the space object over through the air, and erased the restriction.

A ray of spiritual consciousness probed into the Sumeru rings floating in front of him. The resources were pitifully few. There were no rare treasures and not many spirit stones.

Zhao Jianghe, who has been sealed by the ancient laws until now, seems to have escaped the attention of the laws of time, and most of the items on his body have been preserved.

"These are just junks. Are you kidding me?"

Chen Qingyuan's face darkened, thinking that he was insulted and provoked.

It's ridiculous that a quasi-emperor who has reached the ninth step of the Divine Bridge has a wealth that is not even comparable to that of many geniuses of the time.

"Before I passed away, I left all my valuables to my descendants, so..."

Zhao Jianghe seemed to realize that he looked a bit shabby, so he smiled awkwardly and hesitated to speak.

Sensing Chen Qingyuan's uncertain expression, Zhao Jianghe was very likely to kill him, so he hurriedly sought a way out for himself, with a sincere face: "I will definitely work hard to find resources in the future, and give them all to you."

Chen Qingyuan stared at this person, holding the Human Emperor Sword in his hand, and remained silent.

The pressure was too strong. Zhao Jianghe controlled a touch of spiritual energy, wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, and said tremblingly: "I can swear a blood oath and spend 500 years to make up for today's mistake."

Chen Qingyuan remained silent, as if in deep thought.

The invisible pressure was overwhelming Zhao Jianghe. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you are still not satisfied, then you can only kill me! But even if I die, it won't change anything."

"There is one more thing. The reason why I attacked you is because my consciousness was controlled by an unknown force. Obviously, this was directed at you. Don't you want to find out more?"

Zhao Jianghe found another excuse.

"vow."

Just as the other party said, it would be useless even if Chen Qingyuan killed him. It would be better for him to find a way to make up for his losses.

Zhao Jianghe was stunned at first, then overjoyed: "Okay, I'll swear now."

He did not call himself "old man" and lowered his posture even more.

"From today on, I, Zhao Jianghe, voluntarily sign a blood oath contract..."

The content of the contract was very simple. All the resources obtained in the next five hundred years would be handed over to Chen Qingyuan. During this period, Zhao Jianghe could also do some things for Chen Qingyuan. If he violated the contract, his Dao heart would be damaged, he would be judged by the Dao, and he would fall into eternal damnation.

After signing his name, he engraved the seal of origin.

Unless Zhao Jianghe's strength can reach an astonishing level, he cannot afford the consequences of breach of contract.

"Friend Chen, is it ok?"

In order to survive, Zhao Jianghe must face reality and put on a flattering smile.

"It depends on whether you can bring me value in the future. If there is no gain for a long time, I don't mind sending you to the west."

Chen Qingyuan gave a warning, fearing that the other party would not try his best to find resources.

"Please rest assured, I will work hard to find opportunities and will never go against my will."

Zhao Jianghe immediately guaranteed.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now."

At this point, Chen Qingyuan had no choice but to accept it.

"call--"

After making sure that the crisis was temporarily resolved, Zhao Jianghe dared to relax his vigilance a little, took a long breath, and then changed into a clean and tidy gray cloth shirt and a pair of cloth shoes that fit his feet.

"Change place, sit down and talk."

As he spoke, Chen Qingyuan put the Human Emperor Sword into his body and headed towards a certain direction at a slow speed.

After testing the sword with Zhao Jianghe, Chen Qingyuan and the Human Emperor Sword showed a very high degree of compatibility.

After signing the blood contract, they would meet frequently and hand over resources. Therefore, no matter whether Zhao Jianghe was willing or not, or whether he was afraid or not, he had to follow Chen Qingyuan.

The sea of ​​fog was surging, with mysterious patterns everywhere.

In a void, Chen Qingyuan and Zhao Jianghe sat face to face, with drinks on the table.

It was not until this time that Zhao Jianghe realized something. He looked at Chen Qingyuan with eyes full of fear and disbelief, and his expression was extremely shocked.

"You...you...your cultivation fluctuations..."

Zhao Jianghe hesitated, extremely doubting that he had perceived it wrongly.

Just now, I only felt the extremely terrifying murderous intent and pressure, and I had no time to pay attention to this aspect. I subconsciously thought that the fellow Taoist who was chasing me was a strong man of the same realm.

However, at this moment he understood that Chen Qingyuan was not a quasi-emperor at the ninth step of the Divine Bridge, but at the fourth step of the Divine Bridge.

It's just the fourth step of the Divine Bridge. Logically speaking, I can suppress it with just a breath.

But in reality, he was chased all the way and almost lost his life.

I can't be dreaming!

Could it be some kind of unfathomable illusion that has me deeply trapped in it?

Zhao Jianghe was confused and his expression kept changing.
