The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 498

At this moment, Nova finally understood. Nek was sure he would not agree with what he was doing, so he dared to ask her blatantly.

‘This shameless man is an embarrassment to all Saint Masters.‘

“Nek, since you are Saint Master, I have always respected you. Plus, I never ignored you. From the moment you entered the Iridescent Sect, you have enjoyed the highest standard of care and we have met all of your needs, but why are you making such a fuss here? Do you really think that the Iridescent Sect is weak? Do you want me to call a reputable elder?" nova said with a dark expression on her face.

Nova is no longer friendly. The face of the Iridescent Sect and the innocence of an elder were at stake. Even if Nek was a Saint Master, he shouldn't be too presumptuous.

Although the Iridescent Sect was not very domineering in the Star Kingdom and peace was the most important thing to them, as a superpower continent with four prominent elders in the Saint Realm, it was a great power, The Iridescent Sect also had its own bottom line.

Nova can close his eyes if everything is still acceptable. However, if anyone crossed this bottom line, they would face the most aggressive counterattack from the Iridescent Sect. When Nek heard that Nova was going to call the leading elder in a stern tone, he knew Nova was really angry.

”Lady Dream, what are you talking about? I never said that the Iridescent Sect was weak, and I never thought of that in my heart. Everyone knows the status of the Iridescent Sect in Star Kingdom, but all you have just said is from one side. How do you expect me to trust you if I don't see Celeste? Even if you get a prominent elder from the Iridescent Sect, you should still be reasonable, right?"

Nek stopped talking to Nova with his arrogance earlier. He is a Saint. But he did not wish to face off against the four leading elders of the Iridescent Sect who had been Saint Masters since tens of thousands of years ago.

There was also a difference in strength in terms of Saint Masters. There are also three levels. Those who first entered a Saint like Nek were Pre-Master Saints, followed by a True Saint, and finally, a Holy Saint. The gap between each rank was also huge.

According to Nek's guess, the four leading elders of the Iridescent Sect were at least at True Saint Rank, and could even be at Holy Saint Rank. He, a Pre-Master Saint, did not dare to act arrogantly in front of the True Saint and Holy Saint.

If Nova obtained the leading elder of the Iridescent Sect, it would not end well. He could only be humble when he was in front of the reputable elders of the Iridescent Sect.

Of course, as a Saint Master, even though he was only a Pre-Master Saint, Nek would not be humble. He still needed to show the attitude of a Saint.

Nova took a deep breath to hold back her anger. He also heard Nek's voice change. It was rare to hear a slight softening in the tone of a Saint. Now that the other party had softened his tone, it meant that he could turn things around.

'It seems like Nek is also unwilling to face the Leading Elder.' Nova thought inwardly.

If possible, of course, he also did not want to tell the elders who were reputable.

“Nek, Iridescent Sect, will not continue your matter of implanting a seed of mind in Elder Red without permission, but I also hope that you stop bothering me. The reputable elder had verified Elder Red's condition and was right. I can also assure you that he will never find a man in the future, so you will not be ashamed in Star Kingdom. As for the reason why he didn't come to see you, I'm sure you yourself know about it, so let's stop this now and we'll never talk about it again. What say?" Nova proposes a solution.

This incident was initially misunderstood. Frankly, it was Nek who started this. If he hadn't planted a seed of mind on Celeste, how would the next chain of events be?

The Iridescent Sect did not hold Nek accountable because he was a Saint. If he was a Sovereign Ranker or a part Saint, Nova would never let this go. However, if Nek wasn't a Saint Master, he probably wouldn't dare to approach them blatantly. Only by reaching the Saint Realm would one be able to become one of the individuals who set the rules in the Star Kingdom.

“Lady Dream, I agree with what you said, but I have one request. If you agree, this matter will not only end here, but I, Nek Simmons, will be the first to come if anything happens to the Iridescent Sect in the future.”

“What do you need ? Tell me.” ask Nova calmly.

In fact, he might have guessed what the other party wanted. Recently Nek often asked seven fairies to perform for him. Therefore, she liked the seven fairies and wanted to take one of them. With Nek's status, it was easy for him to take one of the seven fairies.

“Lady Dream, I really like the seven fairies, so I want to bring them back to the Simmons family as concubines. Don't worry, I'll treat them well. I hope you agree." said Nek.

“Which one do you like? As long as you follow the sect rules, there will be no problems at all.” replied Nova.

"Not one, but all of them!“

"All? You want to take the seventh of them?" Nova.

Since the founding of the Iridescent Sect, he had never met anyone who wanted to take all seven elves away at once. Grandma was the first.

“Of course! I really like the seven, and I want to take them all."

“Nek, it is not easy to take the seven fairies from my sect. First, you need to pay a certain amount of resources to my sect. Secondly, you need to convince the sect that you will not abuse it, and you also need to give them the resources to cultivate. Otherwise, not only will you be held accountable by our sect, but you will also be directly blacklisted. If you want to take everything, the amount to be paid is not small." Nova frowned and explained.

“Lady Dream, you misunderstood. As a condition for our reconciliation, they will naturally be a gift given to me by you, the Iridescent Sect, while I do not need to pay any price.” Nek said without feeling guilty.

Nova laughed angrily after hearing this.

'She wanted to take the seven fairies but was unwilling to pay any price. This is impossible. Even if Nek was a Saint Master, it was impossible.'

From a certain point of view, the seven elves were also the faces of the Iridescent Sect. Their fame in Star Kingdom was not much lower than the seven high elders. If he allowed Nek to take everything without paying anything, what would they do if another Saint Master came and asked for the same in the future?

How could the Iridescent Sect refuse him?

But if Nova agreed, it would definitely make the Iridescent Sect look weak.

“Nek, you think too much. We can tell you the result of your request now. I disagree.” Nova refused.

“Lady Dream, don't you want to make peace? I, Nek Simmons, am a Saint Master regardless of the situation. Is this asking for too much?” asked Nek, feeling a little unhappy.

'Isn't that too much?' Nova. Not only is it excessive, but it also complicates it.

“Nek, if every Saint Master in Star Kingdom comes to me and asks for seven fairies like you, where will we get enough seven fairies for all of them?”

"From a certain point of view, the seven elves were also the faces of the Iridescent Sect. They are famous in Star Kingdom, yet you want to take them all in one sentence. Do you think this is really possible?"

"Why not? When the time comes, Lady Dream, you can declare to the outside world that I, Grandma, have paid enough.”

“Iridescent Sect will never lie to others and ourselves.”

"Because you're so disrespectful, there's nothing I can do. Is Celeste coming to see me and let me ascertain if your words are correct, or ask your leading elder to come forward. I don't actually want to do this, but you don't give me a choice, so I can only talk to your sect elders who are reputable" Nek helplessly said.

He really gambled. He bet that Nova wouldn't want to call a reputable elder. After all, the four leading elders of the Iridescent Sect had long been nowhere to be seen. They had now received a disciple and had announced that they would be present at the ceremony three months later.

Therefore, now, they had to teach their disciples in seclusion, and they did not want anyone to disturb them. However, if Nova asked the leading elder to come forward, Nek would definitely change his mind soon.

“You..” Nova looked at Nek speechlessly.

'How can this bastard become a Saint Master?’

He could only lament the injustice of a God. All of the Saint Masters he had seen in the past were simple men. This was really the first time Nova had seen a Saint Master like Nek. He was not at all like an ordinary Saint Master.

Nova had no idea Grandmaster Simmons had previously been seriously injured and had started to decline slowly. While Nek broke through to the Saint Realm, he also ate the last remnants of the Simmons family. Only after he broke through, held a grand celebration, and received gifts from the countless Star Kingdom powers did he recover.

Therefore, Nek naturally did not want to waste the slightest bit of the Simmons family's resources on the seven elves. He will save as much as he can.

"I'll just let you take one of them at most" Nova said in a heavy voice.

Nek was very happy. He knows he's right. Nova really did not want to disturb the four leading elders of the Iridescent Sect. However, he replied with a straight face.

“Five! I want to take away five of the seven fairies.”

“Must be! Just one! Take it or leave it." said Nova with gritted teeth.

"Lady Dream, how about you and I take a step back? I want three.”

"Two! You can't have more!"

“OK! Agreed! Thank you for making it happen, Lady Dream." replied Nek with a sudden smile.

Not everyone could take the seven elves from the Iridescent Sect without paying any price. Nek had never thought of taking the seven fairies away. He knew that this was unrealistic.

The reason he said he wanted everything was to paint an illusion for Nova and at the same time make room for both sides to bargain. He was already very satisfied to finally be able to take the two of them away.

"Just tell me after you pick those girls. Goodbye!” Nova turned around and prepared to leave after he finished speaking.

He didn't want to stay here for a moment more.

"Lady Dream, wait!” screams Nek.

“What more do you want?” Nova stopped walking and asked without looking back.

"Lady Dream, I heard that the selection of the seven high elders this year is almost complete. I would like to reserve one of the seven high elders to be my wife so that the Simmons family and the Iridescent Sect become a family. I hope you can agree."

Nova turned around, looked at Nek, and asked in disbelief, “You even asked for seven high elders from this year?”

"of course! The seven high elders are treasures of the Iridescent Sect, so naturally, I want one of them." Nek replied solemnly.

“Nek, don't go too far.” The nova is about to explode.

'This shameless fellow was not satisfied taking out two of the seven fairies and he still wanted one of the seven high elders. Did he know how many resources the Iridescent Sect needed to cultivate one of the seven high elders?

There were quite a few large families in Star Kingdom who married seven high elders, but they all paid quite enough. Nek wants to have it for free just wishful thinking.'

"Lady Dream, don't get me wrong. I will not take the seven priestesses for free. I will pay whatever price I need according to the rules of the Iridescent Sect. I, Nek Simmons, will never take a shortcut."

"Pay the price? You're going to follow the rules?" tanya Nova doesn't believe it.

"of course. I've asked for two out of seven fairies for free. How dare I ask one of the high elders for no pay? Moreover, I know that your noble sect spends a lot of resources to cultivate seven female high elders."

'This still sounds like something a normal human would say.' Nova's expression softened slightly.

If Nek was willing to follow the rules of the Iridescent Sect, he was qualified to marry one of the seven high elders.

"We just found seven high elders. The identities of these seven people would be announced to Star Kingdom in three months at the reception ceremony of the disciples from the leading elders. However, it takes some time to process it. If you're willing to wait, Lord Simmons, I'll let you know when the time comes."
