Chapter 1385 - 47: The Wang Family’s First Divine Power Realm (Part 2)

Further inside, there is a secluded small room, where the artifact spirit left by Da Xue’Er resides.

As soon as he entered the small room, the artifact spirit immediately recognized Wang Anxin’s identity, and then reported in a mechanical, monotonous voice: "Honorable Young Master Anxin, providing a status update as per your request. The overall demolition progress of the Blood Dawn Domain’s Saint Hall is 58.35%. Specifically, the expedition hall’s demolition progress is 73.23%, the corridor’s is 85.64%, the laboratory’s is 22.69%, the storage room’s is 52.03%, and the incubation room’s is 32.15%..."

The demolition progress of the laboratory and incubation room is still quite small; the Wang Family lacks skilled array masters~

Wang Anxin lay back onto the sofa, and couldn’t help but mutter inwardly.

Being a True Immortal Relic, the laboratory and incubation room of the Blood Venerable naturally hold many mysteries, making them far more complex to dismantle than the main hall. Despite Elder Jii Wuchen’s formidable array cultivation, even he finds it somewhat challenging, often needing to ponder for a long time to decide the next step.

Although Elder Jii Wuchen mentioned that he gained substantial insights this time, significantly improving his array expertise, this nevertheless exposes a shortcoming of the Wang Family.

Too few array masters.

Despite the Wang Family’s continuous effort over the years to nurture talents across various fields, those with the talent for arrays are truly rare. Among them, currently only his brother Wang Anye’s array cultivation is considerable, even surpassing Ancestor Xiaoxiao of the Lua Family from Yingxiu, yet still incomparable to Elder Jii Wuchen.

His array skills suffice for setting up average arrays or small-scale Spirit Gathering Arrays but fall short for unraveling formations within Divine Martial Relics like these.

It seems, it’s still necessary to suggest to great-grandfather to intensify the cultivation of array masters and nurture more of their own. Otherwise, encountering relics in the future can’t always trouble Elder Jii Wuchen~ He’s only one person and can’t handle everything alone.

Alas~ The road ahead is long and fraught with responsibility~

Thinking about having to continue negotiating with Chi Mei Demon Envoy today, Wang Anxin, feeling mentally exhausted, adjusted to a comfortable position before sighing and saying, "Artifact spirit, connect me to the Chi Mei Demon Envoy."

"Yes."

The artifact spirit responded mechanically, and subsequently, the room was illuminated by a red light from the top. Moments later, the artifact spirit’s voice echoed again.

"Signal connected. Honorable Young Master Anxin, you may begin speaking with the Chi Mei Demon Envoy."

Wang Anxin pinched the bridge of his nose, sighed, and greeted the other side: "Elder Chi Mei, did you sleep well last night?"

"Is that you?" The Charm Demon Envoy was extremely familiar with Wang Anxin’s voice after so many conversations, and hearing it once more, her face lit up, "So, did Wang Shouzhe agree?"

Her tone was slightly urgent, clearly hopeful for the outcome.

"I’ve conveyed Elder’s request to great-grandfather, but... unsurprisingly, he refused. He said he is not planning to take a concubine, so you might want to reconsider the conditions." Wang Anxin sighed silently.

Why can’t this Chi Mei Demon Envoy realize? Of all the conditions to propose, why pick the most troublesome one?

"How could that be?" The Chi Mei Demon Envoy was incredulous, her tone becoming more urgent, "Didn’t you tell him that my Primordial Yin remains intact? By taking me as a concubine, his cultivation could instantly advance by at least two minor realms. With good fortune, within two hundred years, I could help him advance to the Divine Power Realm. This is the Divine Power Realm we are talking about! No matter how well-connected your Wang Family is with Emperor Longchang, it can’t compare to personal strength, can it?"

"Elder Chi Mei, you might not be fully aware of the Wang Family’s situation," Wang Anxin felt helpless, "The Wang Family does not lack Great Celestial Prides, and my great-grandfather himself is a prodigious talent, already an Unparalleled Celestial Pride. Even if he advances step by step in his cultivation, entering the Divine Power Realm may not require two hundred years. Your offer holds no real allure for him."

"What?"

The Chi Mei Demon Envoy was stunned.

Previously, she suspected that Wang Shouzhe looked somewhat excessively youthful, but she merely assumed that the Wang Family was wealthy enough to afford the best cultivation resources, thus progressing faster. Unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe turned out to be an Unparalleled Celestial Pride!

This greatly exceeded her expectations.

Even in the Demon Dynasty, Unparalleled Celestial Prides hold exceptionally high statuses and are truly seen as stars among the crowds. Within the True Demon Hall, some Unparalleled Celestial Prides in the Purple Mansion Realm, supported by elder backers, can even casually command those in the Divine Power Realm.

Her tone slackened: "Even so, taking me as a concubine isn’t a loss for him~ After all, I am a Divine Power Realm being. Without such a formality, how can he trust me?"

One cannot blame her for being fixated on the concubine issue— her train of thought is inherently such.

In the True Demon Hall, whenever a significant figure aims to recruit or utilize female cultivators from the Charming Maiden Yin Demon Lineage, it is typically through making them concubines. And once aligned, the female cultivators from this lineage remain faithful to them.

This has become an unwritten rule of sorts.

After a brief pause, she suddenly reconsidered: "Why not consider your previous proposal? Although your cultivation is a bit weak, your potential seems decent, and I might settle for it."

The previous proposal?

Upon hearing this, Wang Anxin’s face darkened, inevitably recalling last night’s painful experience.

The last time he communicated with the Chi Mei Demon Envoy, he was unprepared, and unluckily, someone with ill intentions relayed his words to his wife Gongye Xianqiao. As a result, she traveled thousands of miles to Long Marsh, and what happened afterward is a tale too long to tell...
