Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor - Chapter 125

Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Gate of Deer Chasing

Next, it was time for lunch, as Su Han had mentioned.

However, aside from Su Han, it seemed that no one was really in the mood to savor the meal.

As Sect Masters and senior figures, they had all eaten the food prepared by the God-Slaying Pavilion before.

Originally, they had planned to discuss cooperation with the God-Slaying Pavilion today through the gesture of giving gifts, hoping to gain some tangible benefits.

However, after the mess caused by that fool Li Yuan, not to mention profits, they even had to compensate for the gifts.

After hastily eating some food, people from the various Sects gradually left.

In the end, only Yun Qianqian, Ping Yuzi, and others stayed behind.

Ping Yuzi was specifically asked by Su Han to stay, and as for Yun Qianqian, it seemed she had something to discuss with Su Han.

“Miss Yun, everyone here is one of us, so please feel free to speak your mind,” Su Han said to Yun Qianqian.

With a blink of her beautiful eyes, Yun Qianqian said, “It’s not something important, I just wanted to ask if Master Su has ever heard of ‘Gate of Deer Chasing’?”

“Gate of Deer Chasing?”

Before Su Han could respond, Ping Yuzi widened his eyes, “Could it be that the Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s Gate of Deer Chasing is about to open again?”

“Yes.”

Yun Qianqian gave a seductive smile, “It has been a year since the last opening, hasn’t it?”

“Indeed.”

Taking a breath, Ping Yuzi said, “The Gate of Deer Chasing opens once every ten years, always controlled by the Myriad Treasures Pavilion; time really does fly…”

“What is this ‘Gate of Deer Chasing’?” Su Han inquired.

Yun Qianqian immediately feigned dissatisfaction, “Are you really unaware, or are you pretending? You’ve never heard of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s Gate of Deer Chasing?”

“No,” Su Han touched his nose.

“It seems your knowledge still needs to be improved.”

Yun Qianqian huffed softly, “Let me explain this way, the Gate of Deer Chasing is a secret realm owned by Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Everyone who enters, as long as he comes out alive, will gain more or less, some enough to excite, others some slight help.”

“Oh?”

Su Han’s eyes lit up, “What’s inside there?”

“I don’t know that, because I have never entered, but this time I might,” Yun Qianqian said, also somewhat excited.

“You are the Miss of Yun Family, one of the behind-the-scenes steering families of Myriad Treasures Pavilion, and you don’t know what is inside the Gate of Deer Chasing?” Su Han asked.

“To be precise, the Gate of Deer Chasing is another world, not part of Dragon Martial Continent.”

Ping Yuzi explained, “It forms a world of its own, reportedly created by a Mighty Being who possessed incredible pill refining methods and artifact refining techniques. The realm contains all sorts of pill recipes and weapon blueprints left behind; you could say, the Gate of Deer Chasing is a holy land for Alchemists and Artifact Refiners.”

“What else?” Su Han asked further.

“Besides this, there are also many other special items. As for what they are, no one can really tell for sure, because few people obtain them, and each time it’s different. However, obtaining even one item can significantly enhance one’s powers.”

Ping Yuzi wore a look of envy, “It is said that the seventh Holy Son of Giant Island ‘Great King Yun Ye’ acquired an artifact in the Gate of Deer Chasing, which transformed him from an ordinary disciple of Giant Island into today’s seventh Holy Son.”

Even among the Ninth-Rate Sects, disciples are strictly classified as Outer Sect Disciples, Inner Sect Disciples, Pinnacle Disciples, and Direct Disciples, let alone in a Super Sect.

In Giant Island, there are Seven Great Holy Sons and Seven Great Holy Maidens. Anyone who can become a Holy Son or Holy Maiden is considered a Dragon and Phoenix Among Men, a prodigy of the generation.

Great King Yun Ye managed to rise from a common disciple directly to the Seventh Holy Son, which clearly shows how powerful that treasure was.

“The Gate of Deer Chasing has restrictions on the cultivation base of those who enter—only those below the Dragon God Realm can enter.”

Yun Qianqian said, “Therefore, every time we open it, Myriad Treasures Pavilion invites people below the Dragon Pill Realm, including geniuses from Ninth-Rate Sects and disciples from Super Sects.”

“Is there no limit to the number of people who can enter?” Su Han asked.

“Of course, there is. Only a thousand people are allowed each time,” Yun Qianqian said.

Su Han nodded and then added, “Logically speaking, for a highly precious secret realm like the Gate of Deer Chasing, Myriad Treasures Pavilion should keep all the slots to itself to strengthen its own power. Why invite others?”

“Do you think Myriad Treasures Pavilion is foolish!”

Yun Qianqian’s delicate nose wrinkled, “The key to the Gate of Deer Chasing was obtained by Myriad Treasures Pavilion after several fierce battles with those Super Sects, who naturally know about its existence. If Myriad Treasures Pavilion hadn’t made a compromise by giving away some slots, it would likely have been attacked to death by the Top Ten Super Sects.”

“I see,” Su Han suddenly realized.

The innocent are not guilty, but those in possession of jade are.

To possess a treasure, one must at least have the power to protect it.

Although Myriad Treasures Pavilion is large and has a strong foundation, it obviously is not enough to withstand a joint attack from the Top Ten Super Sects.

“Miss Yun telling me about the Gate of Deer Chasing, are you planning to give me some slots?” Su Han suddenly asked.

“You’re smart.”

Yun Qianqian huffed coyly, “Five slots, one billion Gold Coins. I’m giving you a bargain.”

“One billion Gold Coins?!”

Upon hearing this number, Su Han and Ping Yuzi exclaimed in unison.

Immediately after, both of them said at the same time:

“Isn’t that too expensive?”

“Isn’t that too cheap?”

Clearly, the first sentence was from Su Han, and the second was Ping Yuzi’s.

After speaking, they looked at each other again and simultaneously said:

“You think this is cheap?”

“You think this is expensive?”

“You two really have telepathy. If it weren’t for both of you being men, I might have thought you’d become partners,” Yun Qianqian teased.

Ping Yuzi rolled his eyes, “Partners, forget it. But really, one billion Gold Coins is really cheap. I remember Myriad Treasures Pavilion charges other forces one billion Gold Coins per slot, right?”

“Mhm,” Yun Qianqian nodded.

“Myriad Treasures Pavilion is really ruthless,” Su Han said.

Yun Qianqian’s eyes suddenly widened, her hands on her small waist, “Ruthless? Do you know how much Myriad Treasures Pavilion has sacrificed to get the key to the Gate of Deer Chasing? Elder Ping Yuzi is right. Others are charged one billion Gold Coins per slot, and you’re getting five slots for a billion. And you still say Myriad Treasures Pavilion is ruthless?”

“A billion Gold Coins is enough for an ordinary person to live without worries for ten lifetimes,” Su Han muttered.

“Take it or leave it!”

Yun Qianqian snapped, “If it weren’t for the sake of the Teleportation Formation, I wouldn’t give you even one slot for a billion, let alone five!”
