"Not bad!"
Seeing that Han Xuanji seemed moved, Xuanyuan Po's tone grew more fervent.
"Condensing an imprint not only requires strength, but also an understanding of the Human Dao.
To be frank, Brother Han, the ultimate stage for the contest between me, Chu Wuya, and several other potential competitors, will largely be in this Ancient Trial Path and the core area of the Human Emperor Hall!
Whoever can first obtain more Legacies and gather more formidable Luck will gain an absolute advantage in the struggle."
He looked at Han Xuanji with burning eyes:
"Brother Han possesses extraordinary talent, and Junior Brother Su Ming and Brother Jiang Hao are also exceptional Prodigies. If we join forces, we will surely achieve great things in the Ancient Trial Path!
At that time, the Opportunities of the Ancient Path and the Legacies within the Human Emperor Hall can all be shared among us!
This is the great Opportunity I spoke of."
Han Xuanji remained silent for a moment, seemingly weighing his options.
In reality, he was already inwardly overjoyed.
It was impossible for the other party to deceive him about such a matter.
In normal circumstances, although his status as a Dao Child of Lingxu Heavenly Palace was not low, he would not have a suitable reason to visit the Human Emperor Hall, let alone enter its core area to check in.
Now, with the guarantee of a Human Emperor Candidate from the Human Emperor Hall, he could enter the Human Emperor Hall to check in and even visit this Human Race Legacy land to check in.
Han Xuanji decided to go for a big one.
Most importantly, he was originally a member of the Human Race, a descendant of Yanhuang in both his past and present lives, so there was no need to fear anything.
Xuanyuan Po did not rush him, waiting patiently.
He knew that for a person like Han Xuanji, empty promises were useless; he had to offer tangible benefits and prospects.
A moment later, Han Xuanji slowly said:
"Your Highness's intention, I understand. This matter is of great importance, please allow me to discuss it with my Junior Brothers before giving a reply."
"As for today's matter..."
"Today's matter was purely a misunderstanding; let's put it behind us!"
Xuanyuan Po immediately interjected, appearing extremely magnanimous,
"Regardless of Brother Han's decision, I, Xuanyuan Po, wish to be your friend."
"Three days later, the Human Emperor Hall banquet will still be held, purely for friendship, with no other discussions, how about it?"
This was a tactical retreat; it gave Han Xuanji time to consider, maintained their mutual dignity, and preserved opportunities for future contact.
Han Xuanji gave Xuanyuan Po a deep look. This person, being a Human Emperor Candidate, was not entirely a fool.
"Agreed."
He replied with a single word, then subtly gestured to Su Ming and Jiang Hao.
Although Su Ming and Jiang Hao didn't fully understand, seeing Han Xuanji's stance, they reined in their Qi and said no more.
A disturbance was temporarily quelled.
The onlookers, seeing no more excitement, gradually dispersed.
On the way out, Jiang Hao leaned close to Han Xuanji and whispered:
"Senior Brother Han, what did Xuanyuan Po tell you? I think he has ulterior motives!"
Su Ming also cast an inquiring gaze.
Han Xuanji's gaze swept over the majestic palace complex in the distance, shrouded in radiant light and Luck, his eyes deep.
"He was quite generous, offering an irresistible condition."
He replied indifferently,
"Specific details, we'll discuss when we get back."
Inside the quiet room of Lingxu Dao Field.
The Restriction's light curtain flowed like water, isolating inside from outside.
Han Xuanji swept his sleeve, setting up a tea table, where three cups of spiritual tea diffused a clear aroma.
With a calm expression, he recounted to Su Ming and Jiang Hao everything Xuanyuan Po had said about the Ancient Trial Path and the Opportunities of the Human Race Legacy land.
After listening, Jiang Hao frowned and was the first to speak:
"Senior Brother, this is clearly an overt scheme!
This Xuanyuan Po wants to use our strength to add to his Human Emperor Luck.
That Ancient Trial Path is fraught with danger; how can it be an easy place?"
He had clearly heard of the place, and his concern was evident.
Su Ming pondered for a moment. He understood Han Xuanji better and naturally knew that the other party would not act recklessly.
Furthermore, he also knew Han Xuanji's strength; ordinary Prodigies were no match for his Senior Brother Han.
"I believe Senior Brother."
Su Ming quickly said.
And Jiang Hao, not to be outdone, said:
"I definitely believe Senior Brother Han too."
Seeing the two so cooperative, Han Xuanji nodded, saving himself some effort.
"The initiative is with me."
Han Xuanji's tone was firm, and he said lightly:
"Xuanyuan Po wants to use my name, why can't I use his influence?
He provides the path and the quota, and we enter to seek Opportunities, each taking what we need.
As for whether to help him contend for the Human Emperor position... at that time, the situation will be determined by my will; how can he fully control it?"
In his heart, he had already made a decision.
This was a good check-in Opportunity, and he could also use it to see the foundation of the Human Emperor Hall.
As for Xuanyuan Po's attempt to win him over... he hadn't promised anything.
"The foundation of the Human Emperor Hall... I wonder what kind of rewards I can check in for?"
Han Xuanji felt a faint anticipation in his heart.
Now that he had created the "Profound Heaven Chaos Primordial Scripture," he needed a massive amount of resources to advance his cultivation.
"Senior Brother Han is right. At most, we'll let that guy take some credit in name."
Su Ming said with a chuckle.
He strongly agreed.
This Xuanyuan Po wanted to use them, but little did he know who was using whom.
When the time came, Senior Brother Han would get the biggest benefits, and a small share for him would be enough.
He had, at some point, come to believe that all of Han Xuanji's decisions were correct.
"That's right, this Xuanyuan Po is not qualified for us to follow him."
Jiang Hao nodded.
He also felt nothing amiss... Outside the Human Emperor Hall in Great Luo Heaven.
Ten thousand rays of radiant light cascaded down, illuminating the continuous palace complex as if it were cast from glazed glass.
Above the ninety-nine tiers of jade steps, the colossal bronze gate stood open, and a distant bell chime echoed from within.
Prodigies of various races arrived on their escape lights, their robes fluttering, all radiating high spirits.
Han Xuanji, accompanied by Su Ming and Jiang Hao, arrived through the air.
Today, he had changed into a dark-bottomed robe with silver patterns, which, combined with his already outstanding appearance, made him look quite like a Dao Child of Lingxu Heavenly Palace.
Han Xuanji's gaze swept across the plaza in front of the hall, seeing Xuanyuan Po surrounded by a crowd, apparently having gathered quite a few talents.
Xuanyuan Po, wearing a jade crown and a white jade robe with Dragon patterns today, immediately stepped forward to greet Han Xuanji upon his arrival:
"Brother Han is indeed a man of his word."
His voice was resonant, deliberately loud enough for everyone around to hear clearly.
Many Prodigies turned their heads at the words, and whispers arose:
"Is that the current Dao Child of Lingxu Heavenly Palace? He seems extraordinary."
"I heard His Highness Xuanyuan personally invited him; it seems he values him highly."
Han Xuanji returned the greeting calmly:
"Brother Xuanyuan's invitation, how could I not come?"
Hearing Han Xuanji change his address, Xuanyuan Po felt pleased, believing that the distance between himself and Han Xuanji had shortened.
Just as the two were exchanging pleasantries, a clear Phoenix cry suddenly resounded from the sky.
Nine azure luan birds pulled a treasure carriage, breaking through the clouds. The curtain of the carriage lifted, and a man in black robes stepped out.
His face was stern, his gaze like lightning, and wherever he passed, people respectfully made way.
"Chu Wuya has arrived!"
Someone whispered.
"Brother Xuanyuan, I trust you have been well."
Chu Wuya's voice was clear and bright, and his demeanor exuded a natural affinity that made people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
His gaze finally landed on Han Xuanji, and he nodded slightly:
"This must be Daoist Friend Han, the Dao Child of Lingxu. I have long heard of your great name, and seeing you today, you indeed possess extraordinary bearing."
These words were spoken sincerely and appropriately, but Han Xuanji was a little puzzled.
I'm so low-key, and you've still heard of my great name for a long time?
