The Most Powerful Bodyguard-Chapter 828: State Your Terms

Yang Yan smiled softly and said lightly:

"No matter the situation, it's always better to be safe than sorry."

"I've already asked Juechen and Xiaocao to investigate the source earlier, and I believe results will come back soon."

"However, if this involves the United States, such a big nation, do you think we should take direct action?"

Ao Tian said casually:

"This isn't just our issue. There's still the World Federation, that organization communicating between Hidden World and the present world."

"It's their place, let them worry about it."

"I'm sure they're aware of the dangers within and will take necessary actions."

Fenrir nodded agreeing and said:

"If the numbers aren't large, it's still time to control it."

"Otherwise, this will make those Outer Realm beings think Earth is preparing for advanced warfare."

"By then, it won't just be some Outer Realm beasts coming to Earth, but the real troops."

Yang Yan's gaze suddenly fell on Kashu, smiling as he said:

"Alright, I'll leave this to Kashu."

"No matter what, this guy is a member of the Arbitration Committee, he should talk better than us."

Just as Yang Yan forcibly handed this task to Kashu, his phone suddenly rang.

After saying a couple of words on the phone, he quickly told the others he had something to do and hurriedly left.

Han Ruyu, having been "fixed" by Yang Yan this morning, hasn't gone out all day.

Just now, she called to tell Yang Yan that a strange person came to find him at home.

When he arrived at his doorstep, he saw an old man standing motionless at the door, like a statue.

"Haha! I thought you planned to keep my Emperor's Blood Jade."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

"I said before, when I no longer need it, I will return it to you."

The old man said seriously to Yang Yan.

"According to you, you don't need it now?"

"Come in quickly, don't stand at the door. Others might think I'm mistreating you."

Yang Yan said, half jokingly, as he opened the door.

Inside, the old man did not sit down but took out a blood-red jade from his pocket and handed it to Yang Yan solemnly, saying:

"Return the jade to Zhao."

"Where's your kid? Has he already..."

Yang Yan didn't finish but turned to look at the old man and said.

"He's doing okay now, but I feel my time is running out."

"I came today to ask you a favor."

"Then I plan to go accompany my wife, she's been lonely down there for a long time."

Yang Yan chuckled, puckered his lips and said:

"You're really amusing! Lending you the Emperor's Blood Jade was already quite generous of me, and now you're trying to ask me for another favor?"

"Whether you can afford the price or not, do you think I will help you?"

Yang Yan was quite dismissive of the old man's words.

Heavenly Dao can be reversed but not deceived!

For someone who has angered the heavens, Yang Yan has no desire to get involved.

One mistake could indeed drag himself into a pit, which would be irremediable.

"You will."

The old man said confidently:

"I didn't know who you really were before, now I do, you're one of the Four Emperors, you're Moonlight."

Yang Yan sneered and asked:

"I'm one of the Four Emperors, Moonlight, and what does that have to do with you?"

"Do you think just because I'm Moonlight, one of the Four Emperors, I must help you?"

"Old man, is your brain broken?"

As Yang Yan glared at the old man, Han Ruyu came out with a plate of fruit and glared at him fiercely:

"Can't you speak properly?"

Seeing Han Ruyu's strange walking posture, Yang Yan teased with a smile:

"Dear, it's not me being disrespectful of the elderly! It's this old man being too demanding."

Seeing Yang Yan's gaze, Han Ruyu's face also turned red.

She glared at him fiercely again:

"What are you looking at? I don't care about your businesses, I'm going to find Wuyan."

This guy is too unruly, there are outsiders here and he still looks at her like that.

"Guess what I replaced the Emperor's Blood Jade with?"

After Han Ruyu left, the old man calmly said.

"Who cares!"

Yang Yan impatiently waved his hand:

"Don't think I'm the kind of person who can't move when seeing good things?"

The old man suddenly burst into laughter and then said seriously:

"What if I say it's one of the world's Origin?"

Upon hearing the old man's words, Yang Yan suddenly stood up.

He looked at the old man with a cold gaze, and his aura surged.

He could tell, the old man was speaking the truth.

He indeed possessed one of the Origin.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Yang Yan paused for a moment, then sat back down and asked solemnly:

"Do you think I'm some kind of righteous man who wouldn't harm you?"

The old man gently shook his head:

"I'm certainly not that naive. I remember telling you that I'm an expert in Stealing Heaven and Changing the Day."

"Besides, you know my sect, as long as I want, you can't possibly get it without my permission."

The old man said firmly, and Yang Yan knew.

He wasn't lying, he indeed had the ability.

"State your conditions!"

Yang Yan said calmly:

"I suppose you didn't come just to say these things, did you?"

The old man took a deep breath and said word by word:

"I want you to preserve Ergou and raise him to adulthood."

Yang Yan immediately replied without thinking:

"That's impossible. His affliction isn't a disease or an injury, but divine wrath."

"Though I want the Origin, it's not worth going against the heavens for him; this deal isn't worthwhile."

The old man hurriedly explained:

"I don't need you to go against the heavens, I just need you to keep him healthy and growing under your protection."

"As for the mistakes I made, I will make amends, consider this my plea."

By the end, the old man's eyes were brimming with tears.

Humans are not plants, who can be emotionless?

Even Yang Yan, one of the Four Emperors, is no exception.

Seeing the old man's appearance, Yang Yan knew his time was indeed running out.

"If you can ensure the Heavenly Dao doesn't trouble him anymore, then I'll agree to this."

Yang Yan thought for a moment, then slowly said.

"Thank you! However, the Power of Origin was placed into Ergou's body using a special method."

"Also, I made their two energy signs merge into one."

"This is also the only way to save Ergou."

"Now, I will go and bring Ergou over."

Hearing Yang Yan agree to his request, the old man finally said with relief.
