Chapter 33 Conditions

Chapter 33 Conditions

Seeing Wang Guofeng walk in, Zhang Yuhe greeted him warmly, saying,

"Come, come, come, sit down and have a cup of tea. The tea here is quite good, and it has the effect of calming the qi and focusing the mind, which provides a certain enhancing effect on Cultivation."

After saying that, Zhang Yuhe picked up a teacup and poured some for Wang Guofeng.

To be honest, upon seeing Wang Guofeng, the president of the Blue Planet Alliance, for the first time, Zhang Yuhe was still somewhat surprised.

In the past, he had only seen photos of Wang Guofeng and had never met him in person.

Judging by his aura, Wang Guofeng was already at the Golden Core Late Stage cultivation base.

It had only been a little over a year since Yu Fantian opened, but even if not a single day was wasted and one entered Yu Fantian on time, it would still only amount to a hundred years of Cultivation time.

Achieving a Breakthrough to the Golden Core Late Stage in just a hundred years, this speed could be said to be extremely fast.

The Cultivation speed of most Dao Saint Sect Inner Sect Disciples was barely comparable to this.

You must know that when the Blue Planet players entered Yu Fantian, they could be said to have absolutely no Foundation.

They had no Cultivation Technique, no spell Divine Ability, and no Magical Artifact or Magic Treasure.

Everything started from scratch, and Zhang Yuhe deeply understood how arduous their situation was.

Aside from being able to resurrect after death and occasionally dropping some Spirit Stone or junk items from fighting monsters, they didn't have any advantages compared to the indigenous people of Yu Fantian.

To be precise, the players' starting point was even lower, and their path of Cultivation was even harder to walk.

Players needed to spend a vast amount of time acquiring resources, and they couldn't stay and Cultivate with peace of mind like the Disciples of various major forces.

Under such conditions, Wang Guofeng actually managed to Cultivate to the Golden Core Late Stage in just a hundred years, which could not help but surprise him.

However, thinking of Wang Guofeng's 9th-grade Spiritual Root talent, Zhang Yuhe felt somewhat relieved.

A 9th-grade Spiritual Root was definitely a top-tier Cultivation Aptitude throughout the entire Yu Fantian.

Even among the Inner Sect Disciples of the Dao Saint Sect, not all of them necessarily possessed a 9th-grade Spiritual Root.

After the two sat down, Wang Guofeng picked up his teacup and took a small, gentle sip.

Putting down the teacup, he looked at Zhang Yuhe and asked with a trace of confusion in his eyes,

"Brother, what is your name? Are you also a player?"

"Yes, my name is Zhang Yuhe."

Zhang Yuhe nodded.

"Zhang Yuhe…"

Wang Guofeng silently recalled, but after thinking for a good while, he still didn't have any impression of him.

"You are really too low-profile; I have never heard of your existence."

After confirming that Zhang Yuhe was also a Blue Planet player, Wang Guofeng felt quite admiring.

The Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivation base displayed by Zhang Yuhe, placed among the player army, although not considered the absolute top, was definitely not ordinary.

To think that he had always kept a low profile and stayed in Yu Fantian to Cultivate, with other players completely unaware of his existence.

Such a young person was very rare on the Blue Planet.

Most young people on the Blue Planet nowadays were arrogant and wildly self-centered. After achieving success in immortal Cultivation, even if they didn't show off everywhere, they would generally display a sense of presence.

How could there be someone like Zhang Yuhe? He had truly never seen such a person.

"I like quietness and am not interested in joining bustling crowds."

Zhang Yuhe took a light sip and said indifferently.

Wang Guofeng nodded, indicating his understanding.

After all, people's personalities varied and were all different.

He was just a bit curious and didn't dwell on the matter.

Coming all the way to Yunzhong City today, he had serious business to attend to.

Thinking of this, Wang Guofeng took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice,

"You said you work in the Cloud Central Garrison Manor; you aren't lying to me about this, right?"

"I do indeed work in the Guardian Manor; this statement is not false."

Seeing that Wang Guofeng had some doubts, Zhang Yuhe answered firmly.

He was not lying at all. As the Yunzhong Prefecture Guardian Envoy, he naturally worked in the Guardian Manor; there wasn't a shred of falsehood, it couldn't be truer.

Hearing Zhang Yuhe's confirmation, Wang Guofeng nodded.

He thought that as long as he established a connection through Zhang Yuhe, he would have the opportunity to contact the Cloud Central Garrison Manor.

Relying on the information he grasped, perhaps he could use this to join the Guardian Manor.

Thinking of this, Wang Guofeng carefully organized his words and said solemnly,

"I have the news you want, but the conditions I require will be very high; I estimate you cannot make the decision. Could I trouble brother to introduce me to someone in charge at the Guardian Manor?"

Zhang Yuhe didn't feel strange about Wang Guofeng's words.

After all, the cultivation base he was currently displaying was only Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

In Wang Guofeng's eyes, with such a cultivation base, he was perhaps just a handyman role in the Guardian Manor.

Matters concerning a major event like the Demon God Cult naturally could not be easily spoken to him; one had to speak with someone of weight in the Guardian Manor.

However, Zhang Yuhe didn't mind. In the entire Yunzhong Prefecture, whose weight could be greater than his?

He merely said indifferently,

"Oh, what requirements do you have? Can you speak them out for me to hear?"

"I will say the same thing: as long as the news is reliable, you can name any conditions."

Looking at Zhang Yuhe's expression, Wang Guofeng felt quite helpless.

Originally, he wanted to bypass Zhang Yuhe and directly establish contact with the Cloud Central Garrison Manor.

But now it seemed there was some difficulty.

Firstly, he didn't know anyone else in the Guardian Manor, and secondly, his news was purely his own speculation without any solid evidence.

If he ran to the Cloud Central Garrison Manor by himself and said he guessed a certain place was a secret base of the Demon God Cult, he would likely be beaten out and treated as a madman.

"Things are a bit tricky."

Wang Guofeng thought for a moment and then said,

"I want to join the Dao Saint Sect. If that really doesn't work, joining the Cloud Central Garrison Manor is also fine."

Wang Guofeng was opening his mouth wide like a lion; regardless of whether it would work or not, he first set the conditions high.

Didn't Zhang Yuhe say earlier that he could name any conditions? Now that he had named them, could he handle it?

If he couldn't handle it, then it would be better to let him meet someone in charge at the Guardian Manor.

That way, he could seriously negotiate conditions, and if someone introduced him, he wouldn't have to worry about getting beaten out.

Wang Guofeng's original intention was still to bypass Zhang Yuhe and contact the Guardian Manor directly.

He didn't mean anything else; he just felt that Zhang Yuhe's identity and status were too low, making it difficult to discuss certain matters with him.

Hearing the conditions proposed by Wang Guofeng, Zhang Yuhe felt somewhat surprised.

Originally, he even thought that Wang Guofeng might ask for a Cultivation Technique or Magic Treasure.

After all, these resources were basically controlled in the hands of various indigenous forces.

If players wanted to acquire them, they usually needed to pay a huge price.

However, turning his thoughts around, Zhang Yuhe felt that the conditions Wang Guofeng just proposed were even more brilliant.

If he could join the Dao Saint Sect, or even as long as he could join the Guardian Manor, would he still lack Cultivation Techniques and Magic Treasures?

Of course, this was just asking for an exorbitant price; Wang Guofeng had only set the conditions high and didn't necessarily take them seriously.

Zhang Yuhe tapped his fingers gently on the table, falling into deep thought.

Wang Guofeng wanting to join the Dao Saint Sect was naturally impossible.

Although as an Inner Sect Disciple, Zhang Yuhe had the right to recommend others to join the Sect.

But it wasn't like anyone could be recommended; the recommended person also needed to meet certain conditions.

For example, Spiritual Root Aptitude, background origins, and the Cultivation time could not be too long.

People whose Cultivation time was too long would obviously not be accepted by the Dao Saint Sect.

The reason was very simple: they couldn't be tamed.

After considering for a good while, Zhang Yuhe said earnestly,

"Joining the Dao Saint Sect is currently impossible, but if you want to join the Cloud Central Garrison Manor, there is absolutely no problem."

Currently, he still couldn't bring Wang Guofeng into the Dao Saint Sect, but once he achieved a Breakthrough to the Refining Void Realm and became an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect, then there would be completely no problem.

Elders could bring people into the Dao Saint Sect, though not as Sect Disciples, but as the Elder's personal attendants.

The Dao Saint Sect did not have other requirements for an Elder's personal attendants, as long as they were not people with malicious intentions.

As for joining the Guardian Manor, this wasn't an issue at all.

The Cloud Central Garrison Manor was precisely lacking people; he was just thinking of finding some helpers.

It was just that prior to this, Zhang Yuhe had no plans to recruit players into the Guardian Manor.

In his view, players were all people who couldn't endure loneliness and liked to stir up trouble.

If they really caused a mess, wouldn't he have to step forward to quell it? He didn't have time to clean up messes for these people.

However, after seeing Wang Guofeng, Zhang Yuhe changed his mind.

Not only because Wang Guofeng looked steady and reliable, unlike someone who liked to stir up trouble.

More importantly, today that eight-clawed giant sea monster gave him a huge impact.

Originally, Zhang Yuhe thought that players could obtain resources in Yu Fantian and have a relatively good Cultivation environment,

then the players' Cultivation speed would definitely be much faster than the evolution speed of the Blue Planet's Yao Beasts.

As a result, today a giant sea monster appeared that the players couldn't handle.

Since there was a first time, there might be a second time.

Although Zhang Yuhe almost never made a move on the Blue Planet, it didn't mean he didn't care about the stability of the Blue Planet.

Putting emotions aside, those who Cultivate immortals spoke of Karma; he originated from the Blue Planet and achieved the Dao through Cultivation in Yu Fantian.

That is to say, he had forged great Karma with both the Blue Planet and Yu Fantian.

To put it in layman's terms, it meant he owed debts to the Blue Planet and Yu Fantian.

Within his capability, whenever turmoil occurred in these two worlds, he had the obligation to try his best to quell it.

This was also his responsibility.

In the past, Zhang Yuhe had never made a move on the Blue Planet, simply feeling that other people could handle it and it didn't require him.

Now it seemed that the strength of the Blue Planet players was still slightly lacking.

"Perhaps we can appropriately enhance the players' strength."

Zhang Yuhe thought.

Once he flew to the Immortal Realm one day, if any turmoil appeared on the Blue Planet again, with enhanced player strength, they could better cope with it.

Hearing that Zhang Yuhe could let him join the Cloud Central Garrison Manor, Wang Guofeng could not help but be startled.

He said with slightly furrowed brows:

"You can let me join the Guardian Manor? Brother isn't joking, are you?"

"Follow me."

Zhang Yuhe didn't waste words either. After he finished speaking, with a wave of his sleeve robes, he instantly brought Wang Guofeng and flew toward the Guardian Manor.
