164 World Crown
“Two Immortal Techniques and they are definitely very unique, you really are a big lion huh?” The Scarlet Queen looked at Qin Yuan and said with slightly curved lips.
Qin Yuan had expected that she guessed it considering her reaction ever since he used the Immortal Devouring.
He didn’t respond, just smiled faintly. It makes more of an impression.
At this moment, the Scarlet Leaf finally drew near again.
The Scarlet Queen looked at her and asked, “who else did they find?”
“Each of the generals have already managed to track down those Villains,” Scarlet Leaf replied.
“However, Eternal Scarlet informed me that she managed to find traces of the mysterious woman. She is confident that she will find her soon enough.”
“I see!” The Scarlet Queen looked thoughtful after hearing the information from the Scarlet Leaf.
“Queen…” Qin Yuan called out to the Scarlet Queen. He had something he wanted to ask her.
“What?” The queen looked at him.
“You said earlier that there wasn’t much to be found here… However, there must still be something truly valuable, right?”
Hearing that, the Scarlet Queen nodded.
“You’re right,” ehe said, gazing into the depths of the forest.
“Unfortunately, that’s something that no one, not even those four people can take… They’ve sent an Elf several times but still failed. — Maybe only an Elf with a noble bloodline has a chance.”
“Oh…” Qin Yuan became even more interested.
In the Red Cave Realm, indeed there were no Elves, but it had conquered many other realms.
In some realms, there are still Elves even though their existence is extremely rare, not as many as in the Divine World.
‘The arrival of the Elf Queen caused a change in this forest, — does she have that chance?’ Qin Yuan wondered.
“Then what is that thing?” He asked again because the Scarlet Queen still hadn’t said it.
And she didn’t answer right away, she was silent for a while before saying it.
“It’s called the World Crown!”
“World Crown?” Qin Yuan’s eyes immediately narrowed after he heard that.
He knew that because it was one of the Nine Heavenly Treasures.
Although he didn’t know the details, but according to what he had read, it was a weapon, unlike the Hidden Heaven which was more suitable to be described as an Artifact.
“The World Crown has always been held by the Elves,” the Scarlet Queen continued.
“It has received so much of their aura and blood that it creates a very deep bond… Not to mention us, even High-Tier Immortals may not be able to control it.”
“And what if someone had a great opportunity to take it? Would you take action against that person?” Qin Yuan asked.
The Scarlet Queen looked thoughtful after she heard that.
Then, she shook her head. “Perhaps depending on the situation, we, the Red Cave Realm, don’t have a petty heart as long as things don’t threaten us,” she replied.
“Oh…” Now it was Qin Yuan who seemed to be thinking.
He came here to get the Fragment from the Elf Queen.
Of course, he didn’t want the Elf Queen to be caught or get into trouble because of the presence of the Scarlet Queen and the others.
Things could get worse if the Primordial Spirit Clan also made a move.
Apart from them, there were still three Epoch Giants that Qin Yuan didn’t know about.
The only way for the Elf Queen not to be disturbed was for Qin Yuan to convince the Scarlet Queen not to disturb the Elf Queen.
But the problem is; he would gain nothing if he only helped the Elf Queen secretly here.
‘No, the Elf Queen must have sensed my aura,’ thought Qin Yuan, seeing the effects the previous battle had.
‘If she’s in trouble, there’s still a chance she’ll ask for my help.’
That conclusion made Qin Yuan think that allowing the Scarlet Queen and her generals to chase after her for a while was a good thing.
He was quite sure of that but he didn’t know how the Elf Queen would later ask for his help.
“It seems that you really know the mysterious woman and might come for her…” The Scarlet Queen spoke again, looking into Qin Yuan’s eyes with a deep look.
“What are you planning?” she asked.
“I do have a plan,” Qin Yuan replied.
“But, would you help me if I asked you to?”
“Oh…” The queen had an interested expression.
Her face moved closer to Qin Yuan’s.
Qin Yuan knew that in a situation like this it was his charms that would be of great help, so he grabbed the Scarlet Queen’s waist and stroked it gently.
After that, one of his hands held her forehead, caressing her cheeks and hair.
The Scarlet Queen’s expression immediately changed, she revealed a faint smile.
“Can you be sure that this won’t be dangerous for the Red Cave Realm?” she asked.
Of course, there was a possibility of danger in case the Elf Queen obtained the World Crown.
Even though she was a pretty decent woman, the current Red Cave Realm could be said to be the enemy of the Divine World.
Even the Divine World itself was not necessarily safe.
What if the Elf Queen has a hidden evil side and it awakens when she has power?
In that case, Qin Yuan himself would be in trouble as well.
But after a moment of thought, Qin Yuan came up with a solution that could ensure everything would go according to his plan.
Just a Heavenly Scripture Fragment was definitely not enough in exchange for this favor.
And Qin Yuan was sure the Elf Queen wouldn’t mind paying more, so he could ask for more
Of course, Qin Yuan was not really interested in other treasures. They can’t guarantee anything either.
Actually, there is no really reliable solution in this kind of situation.
We can assume that the World Crown is a nuclear weapon.
What could guarantee the owner would obediently not use that power as he wished?
However, Qin Yuan had one thing that could guarantee that.
That was by making the Elf Queen a member of his sect.
Would the Elf Queen agree?
Well, that would depend on how much she wanted the World Crown.
Just being a member of a certain sect shouldn’t be a big deal.
And once she became a member of his sect, even if she wasn’t his woman and he didn’t have the absolute right to command her, there was still a guarantee that she wouldn’t be a threat to him and even help him when he was in trouble.
Qin Yuan then nodded.
“I guarantee with my life, the Red Cave Realm will be fine.” He answered the Scarlet Queen’s question.
But suddenly, the Scarlet Queen put her hand on Qin Yuan’s shoulder, she said, “if it’s like that, I can help you… However, I’m not the type of woman who will work for nothing even if it’s for my lover.”
“…”
