The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1802: Chapter 1802: Bowing His Head

The entire situation is riddled with too many flaws, the loopholes are too obvious.

Even if Jing Yan’s master Zhan Yue really needed the Cold Moon Stone, would they really need to make a special trip to Purple Copper City to buy it? Although Purple Copper City is not extremely far from Sky Creation City, a High-level Supreme would still need to spend more than ten years traveling at full speed and using available Transmission Arrays.

For someone of Jing Yan’s capability, obtaining the Cold Moon Stone is not difficult at all. Perhaps Jing Yan already possesses a significant amount of Cold Moon Stone.

By bringing his master to Purple Copper City, Jing Yan’s intentions are obvious—revenge. The Zitong Building incident was merely a guise, a poor excuse.

Bao Yi knows this all too well, yet he is helpless. In the universe, only the strong have the right to reason. Without strength, it’s best to keep quiet, or you might not even know how you end up dead.

With his heart bleeding, Bao Yi painstakingly managed to gather fifty million ninth-level Divine Crystals, borrowing from several friends. In the long period ahead, he would have to figure out how to return these borrowed Divine Crystals. Although he still has quite a few precious treasures, most of them cannot be parted with.

”Bao Yi, in business, one must have integrity for it to last long. This time, you’ve met someone like me who’s willing to talk things over. Next time, you might not be so lucky. If you encounter someone more ruthless, they might just take your life directly,” Jing Yan said sincerely to Bao Yi.

After taking fifty million ninth-level Divine Crystals from someone, yet still lecturing them.

And Bao Yi could do nothing but nod, conceding that it was his own lack of management, promising such things would not happen again. In truth, at this moment, Bao Yi somewhat loathed continuing to run the Zitong Building; the blow this time was indeed a huge one.

One can imagine, with the incident in Purple Copper City spreading across the Chaotic Universe, how those Initial Creatures would secretly ridicule him. In the future, Bao Yi would be too ashamed to show his face.

”Master, shall we leave?” Jing Yan said to Zhan Yue.

”Alright.” Zhan Yue nodded.

The two left Purple Copper City together, drifting away gracefully.

”This is outrageous, truly outrageous! Brother Bao Yi, what do you plan to do? It’s unimaginable, such arrogance from Jing Yan.” Bao Yi’s friend stamped his feet and raged.

Bao Yi glanced at the friend, feeling frustrated inside.

”Lord Bao Yi...” Hu Kang and Huang Mu came over.

”Get lost!” Bao Yi certainly wouldn’t show these two a good face.

Although Bao Yi knew deep down that this affair was orchestrated by Jing Yan from the start, and could not blame Hu Kang and Huang Mu entirely; otherwise, he would have directly killed them instead of just telling them to leave.

Hu Kang and Huang Mu dared not linger, quickly retreating and leaving.

The cultivators who were watching also gradually left. They all knew that Bao Yi Supreme’s mood must be extremely bad now, and staying would be dangerous. After all, Bao Yi is a renowned High-level Supreme in the Chaotic Universe. If he were to strike, many would die with just a slap.

”I’m really sorry, everyone, for inviting you over only to have such an unexpected situation happen,” Bao Yi said to several people.

”It’s alright, Brother Bao Yi, we understand,”

”Yes, actually, no need to overthink it. Jing Yan is no ordinary person; Jin Haiwang and Blue Entropy Palace Master both died by his hands. Suffering a setback from him is no disgrace,” several people comforted Bao Yi.

Bao Yi really had no mood to chat with them anymore and directly said, ”Everyone, I won’t keep you longer. Hopefully, we’ll gather again next time!”

Seeing Bao Yi like this, they didn’t say more and left Purple Copper City one after another, feeling rather disheartened.

Bao Yi returned to his residence, his face as dark as ever. He went straight to the large communication tool.

”Lord Mu Bin!” Bao Yi’s communication was directed at the High-level Supreme Lord Mu Bin, who is on equal footing with Duanmu Supreme and Lady Nu Zhen.

”Bao Yi, why are you contacting me? What’s the matter?” Mu Bin responded.

Bao Yi recounted to Mu Bin the actions Jing Yan took in Purple Copper City. Mu Bin was silent for a long time.

The Purple Copper City incident just happened and news hadn’t spread, so Mu Bin didn’t know before Bao Yi’s communication.

After quite a while, he replied again, ”Jing Yan indeed went too far. However, for now, you can only endure it. Even I can’t stand up for you. This affair was clearly deliberate, but he still holds the justification. Zitong Building passing off Cold Sand Stone as Cold Moon Stone is indeed a fact.”

Mu Bin clearly had no intention of standing up for Bao Yi.

He couldn’t stand up for him. Would he try to confront Jing Yan? If he were strong enough to defeat Jing Yan, then sure. Paying a visit for accountability isn’t impossible, but with his strength, he simply couldn’t contend with Jing Yan. Moreover, Jing Yan has the terrifying Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix by his side. Visiting would only lead to self-humiliation.

In any case, Bao Yi merely lost some resources, but his life remains intact. Just bear with this reluctant loss!

Hearing this from Mu Bin Supreme, Bao Yi felt angry yet helpless. Since not even Mu Bin could intervene, there’s no one else who could stand up for him either.

Ending his conversation with Mu Bin Supreme, Bao Yi communicated again with Supreme Mao Wang, telling him to wait in the Illusion World.

Why did Jing Yan come to Purple Copper City to cause trouble? Wasn’t it because he obstructed Mao Wang from selling the Chaos Green Lotus to Jing Yan?

Bao Yi knew this issue wasn’t over. Jing Yan’s demands were not just the fifty million ninth-level Divine Crystals; he also wanted Bao Yi to handle that matter properly. Although it wasn’t explicitly stated, Bao Yi knew it was about the Chaos Green Lotus.

At this point, Bao Yi was somewhat scared. If he didn’t reconcile this matter, who knows when the next act of revenge might occur? He could no longer handle such turmoil repeatedly. Taking out fifty million ninth-level Divine Crystals this time nearly cost him his life—what would he use to compensate next time?

Over a hundred years later.

Sky Creation City welcomed two Chaos Supremes, who were Bao Yi and Mao Wang.

Bao Yi first visited Mao Wang in the Illusion World, and then they came together to Sky Creation City. Unable to afford offending Jing Yan anymore, Bao Yi conceded and opted to completely lower his stance.

Jing Yan heard Mao Wang had arrived and was not surprised; he had anticipated this long ago. However, Bao Yi’s arrival was somewhat unexpected. That old guy Bao Yi had thick skin indeed, suffering such humiliation in Purple Copper City and now taking the initiative to come to Sky Creation City.

Jing Yan met with Mao Wang and Bao Yi. In the matter of purchasing the Chaos Green Lotus, Jing Yan did not let Mao Wang suffer any loss, offering not only five thousand pieces of Wizard Crystal but also gifting several top-grade Divine Pills.
