High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chapter 371 Returning to the Manor to Receive Rewards, Calmly Refusing Treasures

Half a month is neither a long nor a short time.

The Shenzhou spacecraft traveled along, stopping and starting, like a cloud wandering aimlessly in the sea of ​​stars.

Chen Yuan led everyone to visit seven planets, ate at eleven spirit restaurants, watched four meteor showers, and soaked in spirit springs for three days on two separate planets.

Life was incredibly comfortable.

That afternoon, the outline of Yuhua Star finally appeared outside the porthole.

That familiar blue-green planet hung silently in the starry sky, surrounded by several silver-white starports.

Spaceships shuttle between the starports, leaving trails of light in their wake.

"arrive."

Chen Yuan stood in front of the main port window and stretched out a big yawn.

The joints cracked all the way from the cervical spine to the lumbar spine, like a small string of muffled firecrackers.

Chen Tianling walked over from the side, holding a cup of spiritual tea.

"Boss, shall we head straight back to the manor?"

Chen Yuan took the teacup and nodded.

"Go back directly."

He took a sip of tea, his gaze falling on the familiar plains in the northern hemisphere of Yuhua Star.

The Starship gradually slowed down and descended towards the Cloud Wilderness Manor.

At this moment, in front of Yunye Manor.

Having received advance notice, Fu Xingyuan and Shen Wenfei had been waiting for almost half an hour.

Fu Xingyuan stood properly, dressed in a dark blue official robe.

Shen Wenfei was still wearing that dark blue robe, the silver threads on the cuffs shimmering in the sunlight.

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky, his expression unhurried and unhurried, showing no sign of impatience.

"Commissioner Shen, Special Envoy Chen should be arriving soon."

Fu Xingyuan said something in a low voice, his tone tinged with apology.

"I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting so long..."

Shen Wenfei waved his hand gently.

"It's alright."

He smiled, his gaze calm.

"For those who cultivate, time is inherently worthless."

"Waiting for half a month or waiting for half a day makes no difference."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced at Shen Wenfei discreetly, secretly admiring the commissioner's patience.

Anyone else would feel resentful after being ignored by an honorary envoy for half a month.

But Shen Wenfei has never urged him once since he arrived on Yuhua Star.

He ate and drank as he pleased, and spent his days meditating and resting in the inn near Xinggang, living a quiet and peaceful life.

Just then.

The sky above them suddenly darkened.

A huge shadow silently covered the entire manor.

Fu Xingyuan subconsciously looked up and froze for a moment.

A huge, silver-white flying boat was hovering above the manor.

The boat was a hundred feet long, with smooth and heavy lines, and its surface was engraved with star runes.

Sunlight shone on the boat, and the runes seemed to come alive, slowly flowing and radiating a noble and restrained luster.

"Is this Special Envoy Chen's Starship?"

Shen Wenfei looked up at the flying boat, a hint of undisguised envy flashing in his eyes.

He sighed softly, his tone filled with heartfelt admiration.

"What a powerful treasure."

"This aura truly lives up to its reputation as an eternal, top-grade flying treasure."

Shen Wenfei shook his head and gave a wry smile.

"I wish I had one too."

He paused, then added.

"Let alone eternal top-grade, even eternal high-grade would be enough for me."

Fu Xingyuan, who was listening nearby, twitched his lips slightly and silently added a sentence in his mind.

"I want one too."

However, he didn't dare to say it aloud.

The Starship began its slow descent.

It landed very steadily, like a light feather touching the ground.

A gentle breeze blew from the bottom of the boat, clearing away the dust in front of the manor.

The hatch opened silently.

Chen Yuan walked out slowly, his white robe swaying gently in the wind.

Behind him followed Chen Tianling and ten Holy Dragon Guards, their steps perfectly synchronized.

The shadowy creature finally leaped out of the hatch, resembling a half-grown cub, its dark purple scales gleaming in the sunlight.

Chen Yuan raised his hand and waved.

The Starry Sea Divine Ship transformed into a silver-white stream of light and entered his body.

Only a few lingering spatial ripples remained, gently swaying across the stone steps in front of the manor.

Shen Wenfei's gaze was first drawn to the shadowy figure.

He looked at the dark purple little beast, sensing the faint aura of the void behemoth, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Is this Special Envoy Chen's Void Beast?"

He nodded to himself.

"It's even stronger than the rumors say. Although he's suppressing his cultivation level, that aura of origin is undeniable."

Then, his gaze turned to Chen Yuan.

Shen Wenfei carefully sensed the aura emanating from Chen Yuan.

Mid-stage Eternal True God, that's right.

But the sense of oppression emanating from the depths of his soul was far more profound than that of a typical mid-stage player.

It's like a bottomless ancient well, calm on the surface, but with water of unknown depth hidden beneath.

"No wonder they were able to kill Black Fiend and Black Flame Dragon so quickly."

Shen Wenfei understood.

Without further hesitation, he stepped forward with a friendly smile on his face.

"Special Envoy Chen, you must be tired from your journey."

He walked up to Chen Yuan, extended his hand, and spoke sincerely and politely.

"I am Shen Wenfei, and I have come on the orders of Prince Mu Cangyun, the Prince of Zhendong, to present the Imperial commendation to Your Excellency."

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow as he looked at the outstretched hand in front of him.

He had a really great time these past two weeks and was in a very good mood.

The other party was so polite that I waited for half a month on Yuhua Star without uttering a single complaint.

"You can't hit someone who's smiling at you."

Chen Yuan muttered to himself.

He extended his hand and shook hands with Shen Wenfei.

"Commissioner Shen, you're too kind."

Chen Yuan released his grip, speaking casually.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Shen Wenfei smiled and shook his head.

"Not long, not long."

He looked Chen Yuan up and down, his gaze sincere.

"I believe that Special Envoy Chen has gained a lot in the past two weeks."

"I wish you, Special Envoy, a breakthrough in your cultivation soon."

Chen Yuan smiled modestly.

"It's still early."

He stepped aside to make way.

"Come in and talk."

Shen Wenfei nodded in agreement.

Chen Yuan led the group into the manor.

Fu Xingyuan followed behind, secretly sighing to himself.

This special envoy, Chen, was easier to talk to than he had imagined.

As soon as Shen Wenfei stepped into the manor gate, he paused for a moment.

His expression changed slightly.

From the outside, the manor looks unremarkable.

The concentration of spiritual energy was average, and the layout wasn't particularly ingenious.

But as soon as he entered the door... Shen Wenfei sensed something was wrong!

The flow of spiritual energy in the surroundings became extremely orderly, as if it had been combed by an invisible hand.

There was a faint sense of spatial folding in the air, as if the entire manor was wrapped in an invisible box.

He subconsciously scanned it with his divine sense.

The next second, Shen Wenfei's eye twitched.

At least three layers of complex arrays were set up around the manor.

The outermost layer is a perception shielding array, which can isolate external divine sense from probing.

The middle layer is a spatial sealing array, which can isolate the entire manor from the outside world when necessary.

The innermost layer is an extremely complex offensive and defensive array, with dense array patterns that are interlocked. Even he, a peak True God, dared not say that he could easily break it!

"This formation is of a high standard..."

Shen Wenfei gasped inwardly.

"Special Envoy Chen is not only powerful, but his formation is also so impressive?"

"The sophistication of this formation is probably unmatched even by many of the empire's specialists in formations."

He silently withdrew his divine sense, his expression remaining unchanged.

Her opinion of Chen Yuan rose significantly.

Chen Yuan led the two to the lakeside pavilion at the back of the manor.

The lake surface shimmered, and several butterflies fluttered their wings among the flowers beside the pavilion pillars.

Tea sets have already been set out on the stone table in the pavilion.

Chen Yi, with great insight, stepped forward and poured a cup of spiritual tea for each of the three.

The tea soup was clear and bright, with wisps of steam rising from it.

A delicate floral and honey scent mingled with the crisp aroma of the spirit wood permeated the pavilion.

"Commissioner Shen, Chief of Staff Fu, please."

Chen Yuan sat down in the main seat and raised his teacup in a gesture of respect.

Shen Wenfei and Fu Xingyuan thanked him and each took a sip from their cups.

The tea is warm and sweet as it goes down your throat.

Shen Wenfei put down his teacup and took something out of his pocket.

It was a medal the size of a palm.

It is cast entirely from a dark gold metal, with intricate star patterns and the emblem of the Azure Sky Empire engraved on its surface.

In the center of the medal is a deep blue gem the size of a fingernail.

Inside the gemstone, it seems as if starlight is slowly rotating, exuding a calm and profound aura.

Order of the Stars.

Shen Wenfei held the medal in both hands and gently placed it on the stone table.

Followed by.

He then took out a silver-white spatial ring from his sleeve.

The ring's surface is covered with intricate spatial patterns, clearly indicating that it is no ordinary item.

"Special Envoy Chen, this is a reward prepared for you by the Empire."

Shen Wenfei pushed the ring and medal in front of Chen Yuan, speaking respectfully.

Then he raised his wrist and tapped the communication bracelet a few times.

The communication bracelet on Chen Yuan's wrist vibrated slightly.

He glanced down at it.

A notification popped up on the screen that the money had been credited to the account.

"Canglan Empire Star Capital Bank: Your account ending in 7312 has been credited with 1 billion Star Coins."

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow, her expression remaining calm.

Shen Wenfei lowered his wrist and began to explain each item one by one.

"Special Envoy Chen, I know that the route you have taken is different from that of the beast tamers of my Canglan Empire."

He spoke earnestly, explaining each point clearly.

"Therefore, His Highness specially adjusted the list for this award."

"In addition to these one billion star coins, there are the following."

Shen Wenfei stretched out his fingers and counted them one by one.

"One hundred thousand top-grade spirit crystals."

"One hundred top-grade level 10 pills."

"One hundred top-grade level 10 spiritual herbs."

"Ten low-grade Eternal Elixirs."

"One hundred low-grade eternal spiritual herbs."

"Ten Eternal Low-Grade Void Crystals".

"as well as--"

He paused, then emphasized his words.

"Special Eternal Mid-Grade Treasure: Three Bottles of Nine Heavens Mystic Water."

Shen Wenfei deliberately pronounced the four characters "Nine Heavens Mysterious Water" very clearly, looking intently at Chen Yuan.

"Special Envoy Chen, this Nine Heavens Mystic Water was specially prepared for you by the Prince."

He slowed down his speech, as if he were introducing an extraordinary treasure.

"This water can not only enhance the user's cultivation level to a certain extent, but also greatly benefit the tempering of physical strength and the restoration of the eternal divine body."

"Your Highness doesn't have much left, so this time I specially set aside three bottles to add to your list of rewards."

Shen Wenfei then pointed to the ring.

"As for the Void Crystal, it is the favorite of the Void Beast race."

He glanced at the shadowy figure lying at Chen Yuan's feet.

"Your natal beast is a Void Behemoth. Consuming the Void Crystal will greatly benefit it."

"These were all specially adjusted by His Highness with the special envoy's actual needs in mind."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Yuan expectantly.

Chen Yuan listened quietly, his gaze falling on the spatial ring on the stone table.

The ring is indeed exquisitely made, with fine spatial patterns flowing across its silver-white surface.

He sent a wisp of his divine sense into it.

One hundred thousand top-grade spirit crystals, one hundred tenth-grade top-grade pills, ten low-grade eternal pills...

There were also three small, pure white jade bottles, each no bigger than the palm of a hand.

The bottle is engraved with fine sealing runes and contains a liquid that emits a faint golden light.

The liquid flowed slowly in the bottle, like melting amber.

"Nine Heavens Mystic Water".

Chen Yuan silently repeated the name in his mind.

The product is indeed a good product.

Within the realm of the eternal God, each of these items would be considered a treasure.

Those three bottles of Nine Heavens Mystic Water were so rare that even the King of Zhendong didn't have much left. The fact that he was given three bottles this time was a huge favor.

But for Chen Yuan, these things were really useless.

"One hundred thousand top-grade spirit crystals."

He counted on his fingers in his mind.

"I'm currently in the early stage of the Supreme Realm, and this amount of spirit crystals isn't even enough to fill a gap between my teeth."

"It would be better to use higher quality crystals instead."

"And these top-grade tenth-rank pills? My infinite storage space is already piled high with them, and after acquiring the Venerable-level pill-refining technique, I can refine these kinds of pills with ease."

"The low-grade elixirs and spiritual herbs of Eternity are of too low quality."

"The Void Crystal is suitable for Youying, but once Youying breaks through another realm, its effect will be similar to that of candy."

"As for the Nine Heavens Mystic Water—"

Chen Yuan glanced at the three small jade bottles.

"Enhance cultivation, temper the body, and restore the eternal divine body."

He shook his head inwardly.

"My Eternal Divine Body has now advanced to the Supreme Divine Body, so the Nine Heavens Profound Water has negligible effect on me."

"I guess the prince added it because I handed over that Eternal Superior-grade Storage Ring."

He withdrew his gaze, his expression remaining unchanged.

As for the Order of the Stars, it merely symbolizes honor.

For Chen Yuan, it had no practical value.

However, since they brought it from so far away and were so polite, it wouldn't be right to embarrass them directly.

Chen Yuan reached out and put the medal and the spatial ring into the infinite storage space.

The movements were casual, as if he had just picked up two ordinary objects.

"Commissioner Shen, thank you for making this trip."

He picked up his teacup and gestured to Shen Wenfei.

"Please also thank the Prince on my behalf."

Chen Yuan spoke calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

"I have received the Empire's goodwill."

Shen Wenfei looked at Chen Yuan's calm and composed demeanor and was secretly amazed.

Anyone else would show some joy upon receiving so many good things.

But Chen Yuan's expression didn't change much from beginning to end.

"This Special Envoy Chen is indeed extraordinary."

He sighed inwardly.

He responded with a smile.

"Special Envoy Chen, you're too kind. This is what you deserve."

Shen Wenfei paused.

"His Highness also said that if there is any need in the future, Special Envoy Chen should feel free to ask the Empire."

"The Empire will certainly not refuse to help if it can."

Chen Yuan nodded without saying anything more.

After exchanging pleasantries, Shen Wenfei and Fu Xingyuan took their leave.

"Special Envoy Chen, then I won't bother you any longer."

Shen Wenfei bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

"If there is an opportunity in the future, Special Envoy Chen is welcome to visit the Prince of Zhendong's Mansion."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

"it is good."

He turned to look at Chen Tianling beside him.

"Tianling, please see Commissioner Shen and Chief of Staff Fu off for me."

Chen Tianling stepped forward in response.

"Commissioner Shen, Chief of Staff Fu, this way please."

Shen Wenfei and Fu Xingyuan bowed to Chen Yuan again, then turned and walked out of the manor.

Chen Tianling escorted the two of them all the way to the entrance of the manor.

Shen Wenfei stopped at the threshold and nodded to Chen Tianling.

"True God Chen, let's leave you here."

Chen Tianling clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Take care, Commissioner Shen."

Shen Wenfei smiled and boarded a small, silver-gray spaceship parked outside the manor with Fu Xingyuan.

The spaceship slowly rose into the air and flew towards the outer port of Yuhua Star.

Inside the spaceship.

Shen Wenfei leaned back in his seat, his gaze passing through the porthole as he looked down at the increasingly smaller Yunye Manor.

His thoughts were still on the meeting he had just attended.

"That spatial ring is an eternal, top-grade spatial treasure."

Shen Wenfei pondered silently in his heart.

"The ability to contain living beings is extremely rare in the universe."

"I know all too well how attractive a high-grade Eternal Space Treasure is to a powerhouse at the mid-stage of the Eternal True God realm."

"If it were any other town envoy, let alone handing it over, not refining and recognizing it as their master on the spot would be considered restraint."

"But what about this Special Envoy Chen?"

Shen Wenfei shook his head.

"They handed it over without hesitation. In the entire conversation just now, they didn't ask a single question about the whereabouts of the Nakong Ring."

"I don't care at all."

He recalled Chen Yuan's expression when he received the Zhenxing Medal and the spatial ring.

Calm, casual, even with a hint of nonchalance.

Those things weren't worth his time.

"It doesn't seem like an act."

Shen Wenfei sighed inwardly.

This Eternal True God, who had only recently joined the Canglan Empire, was even more magnanimous in this respect than the local envoys of the empire.

He had no interest in the empire's politics and military affairs, did not vie for power, did not form factions, and even refused the position of regional governor without hesitation.

He leaned back in his chair, gazing out the porthole at the gradually receding Yuhua Star.

"That's the kind of person I am."

Shen Wenfei muttered to himself.

"It's so perfect it's almost unreal."

Fu Xingyuan sat next to him, unable to hear clearly what Shen Wenfei was saying.

All he knew was that the official beside the prince had an unusually solemn expression on his face at that moment.

The spaceship pierced through the clouds and headed towards the starport.

Inside Yunye Manor.

Chen Yuan returned to the pavilion in the middle of the lake and picked up the cup of tea that he hadn't finished drinking.

The shadowy figure lay sprawled beside the stone table, its vertical pupils fixed on the spot where the spatial ring had just been placed.

"Boss, was that Void Crystal meant for me?"

Chen Yuan put down his teacup and glanced at it.

"It's for you."

He spoke casually.

"You can eat it yourself later. Don't eat too much at once, or I won't be responsible if you get too full."

Youying chuckled.

"Don't worry, it's not even enough to fill my teeth, how could it possibly support me?"

It paused, then added a sentence.

"Boss, if you don't want that Nine Heavens Mystic Water, could I try some?"

Chen Yuan simply placed the teacup on the table.

"You think that's wine?"

The shadowy figure shrank back.

"I was just asking."

Chen Yuan ignored it, picked up his teacup again, and took a sip.

On the lake.

Several spirit fish leaped out of the water, then splashed back down.
