Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts-Chapter 702 - 83: What Do You Think I Do?_1

Learning the etiquette and customs of another world? Bullshit. Does Wen Yu still need to learn about the etiquette and customs of Earth?

He only said that to distract Mo Xuan outside.

In secret, Wen Yu and Tang Haofei were currently communicating rapidly via spiritual fluctuations.

...

"The place we live is called Earth..."

Tang Haofei spoke in a melodious tone. On the surface, Old Tang was vividly describing Earth to Wen Yu, but in their spiritual communication, Tang Haofei's tone was unprecedentedly urgent.

"Damn it, Wen Yu, what's going on? Young Master? What is a Young Master?"

"Young Master means exactly what it says. Do you know what a Crown Prince is? My status is similar to an ancient crown prince. Well, there are some differences. The Emperor of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes has passed away. So, what do you think my current identity is?"

Hearing Wen Yu's simple explanation, Tang Haofei immediately fell silent.

On the surface, Tang Haofei was discussing Earth's various cultural histories, but privately, he was constantly pondering the pros and cons of Wen Yu's identity.

If Tang Haofei were an independent hero, Wen Yu's status would mean nothing to him. If the Heavenly Palace wasn't an option, there was still the Palace Underground. Earth was vast; if there weren't ten thousand treasure lands, there were at least eight thousand.

But Tang Haofei was currently the military's strongest expert, the Human Race Protector!

The various benefits and technological means discovered in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes made it impossible for the military to abandon this place. Even though the Guardian had issued a warning for professionists in the Heavenly Palace to evacuate, the military hadn't retreated a single step; instead, they had gathered even more forces!

The reason was simple. When the dead souls of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes revived, professionists gained a communication channel with them. And the greatest significance of communication is information exchange.

Considering the technological knowledge and their understanding of the Demon Tribe and the Dominator, there was absolutely no reason for the military to give up a prize as large as the Heavenly Palace.

And now, this fellow Wen Yu had become an ultra-privileged heir of the Heavenly Palace...

All sorts of clues converged, making Tang Haofei's head spin.

Fortunately, Wen Yu was more straightforward in his dealings.

...

"Your world is indeed fascinating. If possible, I'd actually like to visit. Unfortunately... unfortunately..."

Wen Yu casually spouted a lot of pleasantries. Privately, however, he had already laid his cards on the table and shown his fangs.

"I know you have questions, like where this identity of mine came from…

"But I won't tell you! All I can say is that my current identity and status are far beyond your imagination. You want an alliance? That depends on my word. You want technology? With a single command from me, all the technology of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes can be laid out before you! You want artifacts? Honestly, the entire Heavenly Palace is so full of them I can't even manage them all! Even the scraps I have left are more than enough for your military to feast on!

"But while I can give you everything you want from the Heavenly Palace, what can you offer me in return?"

When discussing benefits, Wen Yu spoke directly and decisively, with absolutely no regard for his friendship with Tang Haofei.

When vast interests are at stake, don't talk about feelings. Because the greater the interests and the deeper the supposed feelings, the more ruthlessly Wen Yu will make you suffer!

Tang Haofei naturally understood Wen Yu's character and the current situation.

He quickly adjusted his stance—he was now a negotiator between the Cathay military and the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, akin to diplomatic relations between nations.

The saying 'friendship is priceless' was irrelevant here. Between these two powers, there was no friendship to speak of. Only discussing material benefits was the most efficient way to resolve issues.

Tang Haofei retorted, "What do you want?"

"An SSS-Class, light-type skill. I know Lin Haifeng has this. If the skill satisfies me, we can talk more. The sheer amount of good stuff in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes is beyond your wildest imagination!"

Wen Yu's confident assertion was incredibly tempting to the military. After all, how could the information they had gathered about the Universe of Immortals and Heroes possibly compare to what its Young Master knew?

So, Tang Haofei nodded slightly.

"An SSS-Class skill isn't too much to ask. We want the technology for Level 10 building materials from the Heavenly Palace!"

Tang Haofei was also a decisive man. Once Wen Yu stated his condition, Tang Haofei brought up what the military currently desired most.

However, Wen Yu's next sentence made Tang Haofei's face darken instantly.

"The technology for Level 10 building materials? Certainly. That will cost one SSS-level Beast System (Close Combat) Skill!"

"Didn't you say an SSS-Class light-type skill?"

Sensing Tang Haofei's spiritual fluctuations and his simmering resentment, Wen Yu slowly sipped his drink and said leisurely, "The SSS-Class light-type skill I mentioned is merely the entry ticket for us to sit down and negotiate. Think of it as a small welcoming gift you bring when you come to see me. Do you understand my explanation?"

"Oh, oh, I see. In other words, to form an alliance, we first have to bribe you with an SSS-Class skill, right?"

Hearing Tang Haofei's words, which made him almost laugh in exasperation, Wen Yu silently nodded.

Old Tang's words didn't stop, firing at Wen Yu like a Gatling gun.

"You have to understand, what is an alliance? Both sides getting what they need—that's an alliance! Your side, the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, needs us, and we need you. That's the foundation of an alliance! What you're doing now..."

Old Tang's words caught in his throat halfway through. He had realized the flaw in what he just said.

What "your Universe of Immortals and Heroes"?

Knowing Wen Yu through and through, how could Tang Haofei not understand that Wen Yu wasn't a native of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes at all? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

...

Seeing Tang Haofei's crestfallen expression, Wen Yu suddenly chuckled.

He might hold the title of Young Master of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, but in essence, he was still an Earthling, an independent hero.

To put it bluntly, what the hell did the fate of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes have to do with Wen Yu?

Right now, Wen Yu was like a bug exploiting a loophole in the Heavenly Palace!

I'll take all the benefits of this status! And I won't bear any of the responsibilities that come with it! With this identity, I can do whatever I want in the Heavenly Palace! This is the greatest gift the Almighty Demon Vine has given me.

Therefore, Wen Yu deliberately reminded Tang Haofei, "What do you think I'm doing here? What do you think my current game is?

"I'm extorting your military.

"You want technology? You want treasures? Fine, I'll give you everything! This is all just a matter of my say-so! You don't need to worry about what happens to the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. So what if I wreck the entire Heavenly Palace? As long as you can satisfy me, you can get everything you desire! You want Ling Yun City? One Limit Breakthrough Level Esoteric Level skill. That price is low enough, isn't it? You have the resources; you can buy anything you want from me!

"So, Old Tang," Wen Yu said slowly, "you want to form an alliance, you want to advance technologically, you want to strengthen the Human Race's foundation and power. That's all fine. I have no objections; I'd even be happy to see it happen.

"But there's a premise.

"The premise is...

"To satisfy me. Understand?"
