The Growth of a Titan-Chapter 432- Can Someone Point Me To The Exit?
Chapter 432: Chapter 432- Can Someone Point Me To The Exit?
After Sol thought deeply about what he could extort from the Jeagal Clan, he suddenly looked up at the people on the throne and said with a smile.
"My demands are rather simple"—Sol raised his hand and then began listing the things he wanted—"I’d like two hundred million high-grade Aether Stones and three hundred million mid-grade Aether Stones. After that, I would like one hundred and fifty 8th Tier medicinal plants preferably all being of the wood attribute and being matured..."
Upon hearing the request for so many mature 8th-tier medicinal plants, some of the Grand Elders’ faces darken. One had to know that mature 8th-tier medicinal plants were extremely valuable because they had the opportunity to become a 9th-tier medicinal plant. These Grand Elders had to wonder if Sol was planning on creating a medicinal garden with so many high-grade herbs.
Sol didn’t see the dark expressions of the Grand Elders as he continued listing items.
"I also want all of the Wudang Sect’s Martial Techniques you guys recently got, preferably the original ones..."
This time it was Woo-seong’s turn to look at Sol. His face was full of shock but also immense gratitude.
However, once again Sol was too busy counting on his fingers to notice Woo-seong’s expression.
"Ah, I also want a wine gourd with a large separate space. And lastly, I want a bow."
Sol suddenly flipped over his hand and a familiar golden bow appeared in his hand.
When Dae-hyun saw the bow, his eyes couldn’t help but twitch.
The string of the bow was snapped, and the 3rd Grade Runes carved onto it were shattered. This bow was nothing but scrap now.
Sol smiled sheepishly and explained.
"I accidentally broke this one Brother Dae-hyun gave me, so I’d like a better one."
During his seclusion, Sol also wanted to test out his archery skills after his Heavenly Eyes and omniscient ability had improved so much. He knew that with his Heavenly Eyes and Omniscient ability to project his senses for two thousand meters, his archer skills would almost be unrivaled in the same realm. Even across realms, he might be able to be a threat.
However, after his second refine with the addition of the increase in his physical body his breakthrough into the Spiritual Realm caused, the bow was unable to handle his strength and was damaged after his short usage during his battle with Cian.
Thinking of this, Sol quickly added.
"Oh, if you guys have a powerful Archery Skill that you have lying around then that would be good as well."
After Sol listed his demands, the Patriarch of the Jeagal Clan thought for a moment. Sol’s requests were indeed rather simple.
The only thing that would be troublesome was the one hundred and fifty 8th-tier medicinal plants. In the cultivation world, that amount would make any cultivator under the Heavenly Realm’s eyes go red.
As for the Aether Stones, the Jeagal Clan Patriarch didn’t even think about it. Their Jeagal Clan owned an uncountable number of Aether Stones mines across Jianghu. Even if Sol had asked for five times that amount, they could bring out that number.
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch nodded his head and said with a smile.
"All of your requests can be fulfilled, but I wonder how many of the Formations you have in your possessions to exchange with these items? Rest assured whether it is one or two, your demands will be granted."
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch was smiling amicably, but Sol suddenly put on an awkward smile as he explained.
"It seems there is a misunderstanding."
"Oh? What kind of misunderstanding is there?"
The Patriarch was confused and so were the Grand Elders.
Sol scratched his cheek as he said.
"The items I requested aren’t to exchange for the Eight Trigrams Decryption Array, it’s to compensate me for your Sixth Elder attempt at my life."
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch’s brows furrowed slightly, while the other Grand Elders’ expressions followed suit.
"Child, don’t you think you’re being too outrageous? You’ve killed Grand Elder Fang right in front of us, yet you still demand compensation for him attacking you? Ridiculous!"
One of the remaining five Grand Elders to the left of the throne said with a stern expression. He was one of the Grand Elders who was close to the Sixth Grand Elder.
This Grand Elder then turned to cup his fist towards the Jeagal Clan Patriarch and said.
"Patriarch, do we truly have to suffer such humiliation? It’s only the Eight Trigrams Decryption Array, I say we just kick this brat and his friends out. If the Bloodline Tribe Leader comes then our Jeagal Clan isn’t afraid of him!"
This Grand Elder then turned and glared at Sol.
Sol didn’t show much of a reaction to this Grand Elder’s words, though internally his heart skipped a beat.
He wondered if this Grand Elder had said this just to lessen the value of the Eight Trigrams Decryption Array, or if the Array truly didn’t mean that much to them.
The Patriarch of the Jeagal Clan remained silent for a moment before he said.
"Indeed, young man I think you’re looking down on our Jeagal Clan and demanding too much."
Sol could sense the distance in the Jeagal Clan Patriarch’s voice. He suddenly nodded before he cupped his fists and said with a bow.
"Since my demands are too much I won’t haggle with the Seniors. Brother Dae-hyun, I hope we can meet in the Academy to discuss the exchange of the mature 9th-tier medicinal plants I have with some Aether Stones. I’ll take me leave now."
After saying that Sol turned and went to leave with Woo-seong and Mar-Yue directly.
Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder who had just spoken up had his face change and panic settle in his heart.
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch and the other Grand Elders also had their hearts skipped a beat upon seeing Sol’s actions.
Suddenly, Sol paused and then turned back to the throne. Seeing this the Patriarch and the Grand Elders thought he had suddenly changed his mind; however, they were wrong.
"Ah, can someone point me to the exit?"
Sol glanced around the hall, but he didn’t see an exit, and neither did he spot a teleportation formation to leave.
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch looked at Sol and seeing that he really intended to leave, he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
This child had nothing to lose if they didn’t make this exchange, but their Jeagal Clan simply couldn’t let go of this opportunity.
’Why did she have to accompany this brat here?’
The Jeagal Clan Patrich glanced at Mar-Yue and sighed once more. If Mar-Yue wasn’t here, then would they even bother with this child’s nonsense?
"Tell me, what is it you want in exchange for our Clan’s Array?"
Sol who was looking around for an exit suddenly stopped and turned to smile at everyone on the throne.
When the Jeagal Clan Patriarch and the eleven Grand Elders saw his smile, for some reason they had the urge to give him a beating. He was too hateful, actually daring to extort a Great Clan like this.
"It really isn’t a difficult request."
Sol suddenly said.
"All you lot have to do to get the Array in my hands is tell me what you need it for."
Sol dropped all pretense. He was now sure he had the Jeagal Clan in the palm of his hands so there was no reason to pretend anymore.
When the Patriarch and Grand Elders heard Sol, they remained silent. However, if looks could kill, Sol would have died numerous times.
"Child, this matter is a secret of our Jeagal Clan, it’s not something that can be leaked to outsiders." freewebnøvel.com
"Really?"
Sol looked at the Jeagal Clan Patriarch with a sly smile.
"If I’m not wrong, the other Great Clans and Holy Sects know the true value the Eight Trigrams Decryption Array has to your Jeagal Clan. Isn’t that why you brought us here so their spies wouldn’t discover the Array is in my possession?"
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch and the other Grand Elders’ faces changed when they heard that. They had to look at this child a second time, they might have underestimated him.
Woo-seong and Mar-Yue remained silent all this time, but when they heard Sol’s words, they showed surprised expressions. They believe that Sol’s conjecture was right.
The Jeagal Clan Patriarch stared at Sol for a moment in thought then said.
"In the past, our Ancestral Formation was damaged, making it lose some of its capabilities. In order to fix it we need the Eight Trigrams Decryption Array."
Sol thought for a moment then nodded casually.
"Okay, I’m willing to gift the Array to your lot."
As soon as Sol said that a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Sol’s heart nearly came up through his throat because this figure was the old man who had frightened him when he first entered the hall.
Sol wasn’t able to see the old man’s movements even when his senses were spread out around him, he momentarily lost track of his presence.
Sol gulped nervously as the old man stood in front of him and observed him silently. Specifically, the bracelet on his wrists.
"Ah, Senior, is there something wrong?"
The old man seemed to come to, and he looked up at Sol and smiled a wrinkly smile.
"Don’t mind this old man, I just wanted to get a better look. Here."
A storage bag suddenly appeared in the old man’s palm.
"All the items you requested are inside."
Hearing that, Sol’s eyes were immediately drawn to the storage bag, having completely forgotten his nervousness.
He quickly took the storage bag from the old who suddenly disappeared and reappeared on the right of the throne.
Sol was unconcerned with the old man’s actions, and he hurriedly looked inside the storage bag.
When he saw what was inside, he couldn’t help but get excited.
