    Chapter 398: I Can Help You

    Soon, Ye Jian also entered the Huayang secret realm.

    As soon as she stepped into the secret realm, she found herself outside a massive palace.

    “Who’s there?”

    In the next moment, a powerful divine sense quickly scanned the area.

    “Human from the immortal realm? Die.”

    Instantly, the opponent unleashed a powerful attack at Ye Jian.

    While the beast tribe noticed Ye Jian, she also became aware of them.

    It was a bull-headed beast; upon sensing its late Earth Immortal realm strength, Ye Jian’s expression changed drastically.

    She quickly activated a Heavenly Immortal level defense talisman and then took out a Heavenly Immortal level attack talisman.

    Since the beast tribe had discovered her, she needed to resolve this quickly; otherwise, attracting more attention from the beasts was not her intention.

    In an instant, the bull-headed beast’s attack hit Ye Jian’s protective shield but did not break through.

    The next moment, Ye Jian’s attack was unleashed.

    “What? Heavenly Immortal level attack talisman.”

    The bull-headed beast was startled upon sensing the powerful talisman activated by Ye Jian.

    It almost instantly activated its own protective shield.

    However, an attack from the Heavenly Immortal realm was not something a late Earth Immortal beast could withstand.

    In a blink, the bull-headed beast was killed by the powerful attack.

    Ye Jian didn’t have time to lament wasting two talismans; she quickly stored the beast’s body in her space and activated her concealment immortal tool.

    Less than three seconds after activating her concealment immortal tool, several strong divine senses swept over.

    Feeling the overwhelming divine sense pressure, Ye Jian immediately felt a chill of fear.

    If several powerful beasts focused on her, even if she had talismans stronger than the beasts’ levels, she would still have to leave the secret realm in embarrassment.

    After all, against someone with a higher cultivation level than yours, even the most powerful talismans might not help you prevail.

    【It’s over, sisters. I’ve been discovered by the beasts! I have exited the secret realm and cannot re-enter for the next hundred years…】

    Just as Ye Jian was discovered by the beasts, others in the group also reported they had been spotted.

    【Since we’ve been discovered, the strongest beast in the secret realm will surely be alert; our mission to clear the secret realm will likely fail.】

    【Yes, they will definitely notice. What a pity.】

    【In that case, I might as well hunt some beast powerhouses. Bringing back the beast’s meat for the younger generation would be quite good too.】

    【I think that’s a good idea, but everyone should be cautious. If you encounter a beast powerhouse you cannot defeat, exit the secret realm.】

    Seeing that many in the group had lost interest in targeting True Immortal level beasts and decided to abandon the mission, Ye Jian felt quite reluctant.

    She had already taken this secret realm as her own backyard; would she really give up at the first sign of difficulty?

    As Ye Jian hesitated about whether to give up,

    Suddenly, she received a message from Liu Hongxia.

    【Ye Jian, sister, I heard you are planning to attack the Huayang secret realm. Do you want me to help?】Liu Hongxia asked Ye Jian with a smile.

    After three thousand years, Liu Hongxia had frequently pondered over the laws, and her cultivation level had broken through to the late Celestial Immortal stage.

    Upon hearing Liu Hongxia’s words, Ye Jian shook her head and said, “We are planning to attack the Huayang secret realm, but I’m afraid you can’t help with this, Hongxia sister.”

    “Why not?”

    “Because there is a True Immortal beast inside the Huayang secret realm, and it has already discovered us, making it very difficult for us to launch a surprise attack and kill it,” Ye Jian explained to Liu Hongxia.

    Hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia smiled and said, “You think it’s difficult, but that doesn’t mean it’s hard for me. Don’t forget, I can get Golden Immortal level talismans.”

    “Are you saying you want to sell me some Golden Immortal level talismans?” Ye Jian asked in surprise.

    “To deal with a True Immortal beast, there’s no need for Golden Immortal level talismans; Profound Immortal level attack talismans will be more than enough,” Liu Hongxia said with a smile.

    “I have Profound Immortal level talismans, but I’m not sure I can hit it,” Ye Jian shook her head.

    “If you can’t, I can. As long as you are willing to pay, I can take care of that True Immortal beast for you,” Liu Hongxia said to Ye Jian.

    Upon hearing this, Ye Jian immediately asked, “What do you want, Hongxia sister? Also, do you have a passage to the Huayang secret realm?”

    “Of course I have a passage; otherwise, how could Dad have met your mom?

    Here’s the deal: you give me one million high-quality immortal essence stones, and I will help you deal with it,” Liu Hongxia said lightly to Ye Jian.

    Hearing this, Ye Jian quickly calculated in her mind.

    One million high-quality immortal essence stones equals ten billion low-grade immortal essence stones.

    Is it worth such a high price just to eliminate a True Immortal beast?

    Even if they captured the Huayang secret realm, how long would it take to earn back the resources spent?

    After a moment of thought, Ye Jian felt it wasn’t worth it.

    Thinking it over, she said to Liu Hongxia, “Hongxia sister, I can’t pay one million high-quality immortal essence stones; I can only offer fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones. If Liu Hongxia is willing to help, I can provide fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones.”

    “Ye Jian, are you joking? You think you can buy a True Immortal beast’s life for fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones?”

    “Hongxia sister, that’s all I can offer; I don’t have many high-quality immortal essence stones left, and I still need them to comprehend the laws.

    How about this: if Liu Hongxia is willing to help, the body of the True Immortal beast you kill will belong to you, and we can also give you one percent of the secret realm’s shares. In the future, you will receive one percent of all outputs from the secret realm. What do you think?”

    Upon hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia fell into thought.

    After a moment, Liu Hongxia nodded and said, “Okay, transfer fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones to me, and I will take care of that True Immortal beast for you.”

    “Alright.” Upon hearing Liu Hongxia’s agreement, Ye Jian promptly traded fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones to her.

    After Ye Jian transferred the fifty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones to Liu Hongxia, Liu Hongxia headed to Earth and found a woman — Ye Qinxian.

    At this moment, Ye Qinxian had reached the initial stage of the True Immortal realm after continuous cultivation for thousands of years.

    “Liu Hongxia, did you come to find me for something?” Ye Qinxian asked Liu Hongxia.

    “Aunt Ye, I’m here to ask for your help,” Liu Hongxia replied with a smile.

    “What do you want me to help you with?”

    “I want you to go to the Huayang secret realm and kill a True Immortal beast inside,” Liu Hongxia said cheerfully.

    Before Ye Qinxian could respond, Liu Hongxia continued, “Of course, I won’t ask you to help for free. I can pay you twenty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones as a reward, and I will also provide two Profound Immortal level defense and attack talismans to ensure your safety.”

    Upon hearing Liu Hongxia’s words, Ye Qinxian’s interest was piqued.

    “Are you sure you will give me twenty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones? And you want to kill a True Immortal beast? Plus, you’ll give me Profound Immortal level talismans?”

    “Indeed, I can guarantee that. If you can’t handle it, just exit the secret realm,” Liu Hongxia assured Ye Qinxian.

    “Then why don’t you go yourself?” Ye Qinxian asked with a frown.

    “Because I just came out of the Huayang secret realm, and I can’t enter again for another one hundred years,” Liu Hongxia explained.

    Upon hearing Liu Hongxia’s words, Ye Qinxian nodded, “Alright, I agree.”

    “Great! You’re quick to agree, Aunt Ye. Let’s do it this way: I will give you the talismans first. After you kill the beast, bring its body out, and then I will pay you the twenty thousand high-quality immortal essence stones,” Liu Hongxia said to Ye Qinxian.

    “Okay.” Ye Qinxian nodded in agreement.
