It was the second time Zheng-Fu had to unleash his aura. This time, he didn't immediately retract it. Moreover, he also intensified and expanded it even more widely, allowing all the people in Comrade City to sense his powerful aura.

"Half-deity stage!"

"Half-deity stage!"

"Really Half-deity stage!"

The three clan leaders exclaimed in unison. Because this kind of aura could not be imitated. Only the Half-deity stage identities could unleash it. However, the aura that Zheng-Fu unleashed was far superior to the ordinary Half-deity stage. If he continued to increase its intensity even more, it would be comparable to that of the Deity stage identities.

"Is this enough, Clan Leaders?" Zheng-Fu asked with a smile.

"Definitely enough! But even so... this is an important matter and we would like to discuss it once more. I hope you don't mind?" The Furious Dragon Clan replied. But his expression was both delighted and hesitant. He hesitated because of the benefits each side would receive.

"Yes! This matter is important to the future of our Comrade City. I hope you don't mind if we discuss it again," the Elephant Bear Clan Leader agreed with the Furious Dragon Clan's idea.

"For me, other matters are not important. I just want to get rid of that golden egg!" However, the middle-aged man with orange hair and a youthful and calm face had a different opinion from the other two clan leaders.

"Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader Niao-Chen, you can't say that. Because of the existence of that golden egg, we have been able to live a good life throughout the past. If it disappears from us..."

"Master Chong-Ge-Bo, you're hesitating because you still want the right to obtain those Purple Heaven Crystals. But right now, that golden egg can't produce the Purple Heaven Crystal. It'll only create problems and destruction for us. So, are you still thinking of keeping it?

"Besides, we still don't know if this Little Comrade can destroy it. And if he can really destroy it, how much energy do you think he will need? Of course, he probably has to use all the energy he has. And if it takes that much energy to destroy it, what will be left?"

Hah!

Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader's explanation caused the expressions of the other two clan leaders who were discussing the benefits to change. Because every word he said was the truth.

"I support Master Niao-Chen's idea. I think it's time for us to stop clinging to that golden egg. Because throughout a long period, we have received enough. And Comrade City doesn't have just a single resource. Therefore, I think it must be put to an end for the safety of everyone in the city!" The Emerald Wolf Clan Leader agreed with the Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader. It was not that he did not want the excellent resources from the golden egg. But it was because the golden egg could no longer provide any benefit.

"However, the golden egg's shell might be valuable and could cause the area around it to form another Purple Heaven Crystal ore mine. So, shouldn't we keep it?" But the Elephant Bear Clan Leader still refused. And he had his reasons.

"Yes! We should at least keep the golden egg's shell. Even if not all of it!" The Furious Dragon Clan Leader agreed with the Elephant Bear Clan Leader. He, therefore, supported him seriously.

The four clan leaders had different opinions. The votes were divided equally into two sides—one side wanted to destroy it completely, the other disagreed and wanted to keep some of the eggshell. No one thought of asking Zheng-Fu what he wanted. Both sides only cared about what they wanted, but did not even ask the one who had to take action.

"Hmm! Have you guys come to a suitable conclusion? If you haven't yet, I'd like to go back and rest first. When you come to a conclusion, please tell me. Oh, and one more thing, I don't plan on working for anyone for free. And in this task, I would need to waste a lot of energy. So, the only thing I want is the remnants of that golden egg. And if I don't receive it, everything is over. There's nothing to agree on."

Zheng-Fu tried to find a moment to interject. And he finally got the chance when the four of them were silent. And the words he said immediately caused the entire atmosphere in this hall to become completely silent. Because the compensation that Zheng-Fu wanted was what the two opposing clan leaders wanted as well.

"You said you wanted the remnants of the golden egg?" The Elephant Bear Clan Leader turned his gaze to Zheng-Fu and asked with a fierce expression.

"Yes! I want it. If I don't get it, I won't accept this job. After all, I don't have any benefit or disadvantage from the events that will happen after this," Zheng-Fu shrugged as he replied. He did not care about the other party's fierce gaze at all. Because the other party's energy level was weaker than his.

"That would be impossible. Because the remnants of that golden egg's shell are very precious to us. Like this, aren't you going to be too greedy?" The red-haired man on the same side as the Elephant Bear Clan Leader also disagreed with giving Zheng-Fu the eggshell.

"I already told you. I don't force you. But it is the only condition on which I'll accept this job if you guys want me to help you. But if not, we'll just separate. I'll leave this city according to my original plan. As for you guys, you can wait to deal with the creature inside the golden egg. That's it!" Zheng-Fu still gave the same answer, showing no interest in any other proposal besides the remnants of the golden egg.

"Little Comrade, is there another way we can reach an agreement?" However, the Emerald Wolf Clan Leader still did not give up on bargaining with Zheng-Fu. He tried to think of other conditions.

"So, Clan Leader, do you have a better offer?" Zheng-Fu did not look cold when answering the Emerald Wolf Clan Leader and was willing to listen to the other party's proposals.

Ah!

When asked, Fei-Shi-Fei could not answer immediately. Because he still could not figure out what he could use to negotiate with Zheng-Fu. So, he could only remain silent and helplessly lower his head.

"How about this? If I can provide an alternative production source for Purple Heavenly Crystal under the ancient ruin, would you all give me the remnants of the golden egg?"

Hah!?

Zheng-Fu's proposal caused everyone in the hall to have different expressions on their faces. Some people felt puzzled. Some were surprised. And some felt that Zheng-Fu was talking nonsense.

"Little Comrade, can you explain further?" Fei-Shi-Fei asked. Because what Zheng-Fu said he had never heard before.

"Are you saying you can create a Purple Heaven Crystal mine to replace the golden eggs?" Elephant Bear Clan Leader asked, after processing Zheng-Fu's words,

"First of all, I have to ask all Clan Leaders a question. Do you really want the remnants of the golden egg or do you want a place where Purple Heavenly Crystal can be produced?" Zheng-Fu still had not explained. He simply asked what the four leaders truly wanted.

"Actually, for me, the mine that produces Purple Heavenly Crystal is more important. Because even though we have the remnants of the golden egg, if it can't produce a Purple Heavenly Crystal, it would just be a decoration. Or at best, it might be able to be a raw material for forging a Deity stage treasure. But there's only a very small chance that this is possible. Therefore, I need the Purple Heavenly Crystal mine!" Fei-Shi-Fei took a moment to think before answering Zheng-Fu's question.

"I, too, made the same choice as Master Fei-Shi-Fei. Having a mine is better than idly hoping that the remnants of the Deity stage golden egg can be used to create a Deity stage treasure!" The Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader also agreed with Fei-Shi-Fei. So, he chose without hesitation.

The other two leaders did not immediately answer. Both of them were thinking and weighing to see which one was more worthwhile. They thought it was equally worth it and could not decide yet.

"What about the two of you?" Zheng-Fu saw that they had not yet given him an answer. So, he pressured the two of them again in a calm voice.

"I... I... Oh my! Since it's like this, do I have any other choice!? But let me ask you a question. Can you really do as you say?" The Elephant Bear Clan Leader finally had to make a choice. But he still wanted to hear confirmation from Zheng-Fu.

"Of course, I can. I can turn the area beneath the ancient ruin into a Purple Heaven Crystal mine, but... this mine still has its natural rules. That is, the Purple Heaven Crystal ore produced will have high or low levels depending on the energy density. But I guarantee that within twenty years or so, this mine will continue to produce high-level Purple Heavenly Crystals for you."

Zheng-Fu replied confidently about this. Because within his dimensional space, there were many mines. Just him choosing one of them to place in the ancient ruin was enough. However, there was one thing that Zheng-Fu was worried about. That was the size of the space within that ancient ruin. If it were too small, he would have to change his plan.

"If you say so, I believe you. But if you really can't do it and think about cheating us. Even if I can't fight you, I won't escape and will fight until my death!" The Elephant Bear Clan Leader said fiercely. He still did not fully trust Zheng-Fu. He was afraid that Zheng-Fu would cheat and steal the golden egg and not keep his promise.

"I swear to heaven and earth. If I cheat you by taking the remnants of the golden egg and refuse to do as I said, may I be punished by heaven!" Zheng-Fu solemnly swore an oath to heaven and earth, and it was considered to be an extremely powerful and sacred oath.

"Good! Then I'll agree. Even though I don't have much confidence or trust in you. But when you swear an oath to heaven and earth, I'll believe you and make the same decision as everyone else!" The Furious Dragon Clan Leader finally made a decision. He chose to agree with the opinion of the majority. Even though he did not fully trust Zheng-Fu.

"I won't disappoint you all!"
