Chapter 558 - 560 Ghost King Ye Wuchen (5)
Having said this, he paused briefly, then continued, "Moreover, there is another matter. The Young Master of the Ouyang Family, Ouyang Yunjin, has laid down his declaration—hereafter they will no longer influence the Royal Family’s succession. The princes will rely on their own abilities and levels. Yi Shaochen, with your talent, you should no longer need my assistance. Thus, our transaction ends here."
His original intention in striking a deal with her was to unite against the Ouyang Family. Now that they would no longer interfere in royal affairs, naturally, the deal did not need to continue.
"No," Yi Shaochen curled his lips into a light smile, his voice as smooth as flowing water, "Our transaction is not terminated, rather it has been successfully completed. I acquired what I wanted, and you have found out what you needed, have you not?"
Mu Ruyue raised an eyebrow, "Yi Shaochen, are you interested in engaging in another transaction?"

Yi Shaochen felt a tremor in his heart, and the smile faded from his lips as he looked at Mu Ruyue in shock, "A Bone Cleansing Pill that can aid in cultivation?"
"That’s right," Mu Ruyue nodded, "But with your ages being on the higher side, you will need to start your cultivation with the assistance of other elixirs. Moreover, I will refine the Immortality Elixir for you—not only does it maintain your appearance unchanging, but it also stabilizes all bodily functions. Otherwise, as you age, the pace of your cultivation will slow down."
Yi Shaochen took a deep breath, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, "Aren’t you afraid I will betray you?"
