“I have no problem with cooperation.” Chen Heng maintained the smile on his face and said softly, “His Highness Alan was very satisfied with your last gift, so he specially sent me here to take a look.
However, looking at the situation now, it seems that some of you are not very friendly.”

“That was just his behavior,” Elena explained and could not help but feel a little awkward.
“We were preparing to stop him.”

Initially, they were happy to see Pru’s previous actions succeed.
Even if they were keen to cooperate, it did not prevent them from showing off their power and letting the other party realize their strength.

However, the awkward thing was that before they could demonstrate their power, their people had already been taken care of by the other party.
They did not even notice the entire process clearly, nor did they understand how the other party did it.

However, even if it was awkward, they still had to say what they needed.
After all, the cooperation would continue.

“I like this very much.” Chen Heng smiled as if he did not mind what had happened previously, “Now, back to the main topic and talk about cooperation.
His Highness Alan is very satisfied with the gifts you gave before and hopes to obtain more.
Then, what about the things you asked for?”

“You’re very direct.” Elena was a little surprised.

She had originally thought that a noble like Chen Heng would talk euphemistically.
However, it was great to get straight to the main topic.

“What we need is not much.
In fact, to a certain extent, it is also beneficial to Prince Alan.” She spoke with a hint of a smile on her face.

“Oh?” Chen Heng was a little surprised, “What exactly is it then?”

“Information.” Elena said, “We want to know the information about the many bloodlines of the Violet Empire.
This information would be enough for us.
What do you think?” She smiled, “This request shouldn’t be difficult for His Highness Alan, who is of noble status, right?”

“I see.” Chen Heng was enlightened.
“It was you who did those things before.”

Many things had happened in the Violet Empire before this.
Some people frequently attacked the bloodline families in the vicinity, plundering their bloodline seeds, and even killing some people with unique bloodlines.
This kind of thing was not uncommon and had always happened in the past.

Bloodlines were unique and rare resources in this world, attracting many people’s attention.
Similar bloodline hunters were also not rare in this world.
It was just this kind of thing that frequently happened in recent years and had already reached a point where people could not help but cast sidelong glances at it.

The assassination of Chen Heng’s elder brother’s fiancée, Princess Aimer of the Gilna Royal Family, was the most famous case recently, directly attracting the attention of two empires.

Now that he thought about it, the suspect might not be anyone else but the King’s Council, who indeed possess such strength based on their previous actions.

Hearing Chen Heng’s words, Elena did not say anything but only maintained a smile, looking somewhat mysterious.

Chen Heng pondered for a moment and asked, “How much can you pay us?”

“Three royal corpses.” Elena raised her three fingers with a smile on her face, then he said, “As long as Your Highness is willing to provide us with Prince Aili’s whereabouts, the three royal corpses will be sent over immediately.”

“Three royal corpses…” Chen Heng could not help but be slightly surprised and looked puzzledly at Elena, “Why are you doing this?”

Having Chen Heng provide them with information about Prince Aili proved one thing.
Not only could these people from the King’s Council have likely already made a move against Princess Aimer of the Gilna Kingdom, but they were even crazily targeting Chen Heng’s elder brother, Prince Aili of the Violet Empire.

This indirectly meant that they would offend two empires in one go.
Chen Heng couldn’t help but ask why.
If they made a move against Aili, they would only be able to obtain Aili’s corpse and the bloodline of the Violet Royal Family’s progenitor.
However, they are willing to provide three royal corpses to Chen Heng just to obtain Aili’s whereabouts.

Three corpses in exchange for Aili’s information.
This was undoubtedly a huge loss.
Perhaps the other party only wanted the Violet Empire’s royal bloodline, and the other royal bloodlines were no longer needed, which was why they made such a request? Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng’s mind.

“You don’t need to care about this problem,” Elena revealed a faint smile and said, “In any case, this matter will be of great benefit to Your Highness, isn’t it? Your Highness will be the most advantageous successor to the throne if Prince Aili dies.
Perhaps in the future, you can address him the crown prince.”

“These are two different matters.” Chen Heng shook his head.

He did not have any thoughts on the throne of the Violet Empire.
However, the three royal corpses were indeed very attractive.
Therefore, he thought for a moment before nodding his head.
No matter what, the conditions were set.

Three royal corpses were a great condition.
So it was better for Chen Heng to agree to it first.

Chen Heng did not feel any burden in his heart regarding this matter.
He knew clearly that even if he did not agree, the various people from the King’s Council would probably be able to find other people to do this.
Therefore, the final result would not be any different.

The Violet Empire wasn’t completely peaceful.
Quite some people were looking forward to Prince Aili’s death.
Therefore, Chen Heng didn’t feel much of a burden in his heart, thinking about it this way.

After agreeing on the time and place of the transaction, Chen Heng walked out.
A thick fog rose from the front and spread in all directions, obscuring the scene before him.
Chen Heng was alone, holding a lantern in his hand, and silently walked forward in the direction he came from.

Behind him, Elena and the others were still sitting by the bonfire.
No one knew what they were thinking at the moment.
Then, not long after, a crisp sound of footsteps was heard.
The shadows on the ground appeared very long under the bonfire’s brilliance.

Then, an old man walked out from the back.
He wore a loose robe, and his body looked shriveled and skinny.
Elena and the others quickly bowed as they saw the old man.

“Elder.”

“Yes.” The old man nodded and looked calm, “Has he left?”

“Yes.” Elena nodded.

“What instructions do you have?” Elena looked hesitant as the old man shook his head.
Then, after hesitating, she spoke again and brought up Pru’s matter.

“I am aware of his situation.” The old man nodded and said faintly, “Someone directly broke his bloodline spell.
He fell into a backlash and almost died.
The other party has outstanding strength.
What’s his name?”

“He seems to be called… Kling?” Elena carefully recalled for a moment and then said.

She did not have much communication with Chen Heng.
However, she knew this name because Wendy had chatted with Chen Heng during the day.

In this world, Chen Heng naturally would not use his real name.
As for the name Alan, it was not suitable here, so he simply used a name that he had used in the simulation world.

“Kling?” The old man nodded and looked into the distance.

There, the scarlet light of the lantern dispersed the fog and appeared dim, as if it was far away.

“He had outstanding strength.
He managed to break Pru’s bloodline spell in an instant.” The old man spoke with some admiration, “Moreover, he appeared very calm throughout the entire process.
There were no signs that he was affected by his bloodline.
It would be a pity if such a person were to become a follower of the puppet prince simply.”

“What do you mean, Elder?” Elena heard some hints and asked cautiously.

“Find an opportunity.” The old man said, “Take him into the parliament and assign him to me directly.
We would be creating a whole new world in the future.
Hence, naturally, we need more talented people like him.” The people present looked at each other, then nodded.

On the other side, Chen Heng carried the lantern and returned to the old tavern.
The lantern in his hand was specially made, and its fuel was limited.
As a result, it almost extinguished after arriving, with only a bit of flickering scarlet radiance.

Chen Heng thought for a moment, then used his magic power to seal the fuel, preparing to bring it back and study it properly so as not to waste it.
Then, he returned to his room.

Everything around him seemed to be no different from before.
Chen Heng deliberately opened the window to take a look.
Under his extraordinary vision, he could see everything in the night scenery of the small town, which seemed to have returned to normal now that time had passed.

There was no strange fog, nor was it as gloomy as before.
Everything was so normal.
If one listened carefully, one could hear a burst of noise coming from the distance.
It seemed that someone was arguing in the room.
Chen Heng shook his head.
Then, he closed the room door and continued to rest.

Early the next morning, someone knocked on his room door.

“Please come in.” A gentle voice came from the room.

Then, the room’s wooden door opened with a sizzling sound.
Wendy walked in and carefully looked inside.

Chen Heng was sitting alone on the big bed.
The clothes on his body were in good condition, and he looked natural as if he had not slept all night.
