Smiling, he nodded and Xin Yun said, "First, you should know that I have traded for the Red Gourd, and I do not wish for it to be stolen by others, so..."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong couldn't help but smile. He had already thought of this condition, therefore... Po Kong said without hesitation, "That's no problem. I will announce tomorrow that anyone who tries to steal the Red Gourd will become an enemy of our clan!"

Smiling and nodding, Xin Yun pondered for a moment and then said in a low voice, "Actually, I won't always need protection, which might be difficult for you to manage. So here's the deal... You only need to protect me until I reach the Purple Crystal Stage. Once I've reached the Purple Crystal Stage, this protection can be lifted!"

Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong immediately nodded in admiration. He understood Xin Yun's meaning. Although for the Po Kong Clan, this was a trivial matter, if they were to really do so, it would still be a bit overbearing and likely to provoke resentment from others. Despite being the first clan of the age, they were not invincible, and such warnings should be issued sparingly.

Considering this, Po Kong nodded and said, "Alright, I promise you this. Is there anything else?"

"Hmm..." Gently stroking his chin, Xin Yun thought for a while, then firmly said, "In addition to the Red Gourd and protection before the Purple Crystal Stage, as long as you promise me three more favors, this deal will be done!"

"Hmm?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong was taken aback and cautiously said, "What did you just say? Explain clearly, do you want me to do you three favors? Or my clan?"

Anticipating this question from Po Kong, Xin Yun smiled and said, "Of course, it's you. I value you as a person, not your clan!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong felt an intense satisfaction. All this time, whenever Po Kong was mentioned, the first thing that came to mind was always his clan, overshadowing all his efforts and achievements, as if everything were taken for granted. Only he knew how much hardship and suffering he had endured to achieve all that he had.

In fact, even though the environment and conditions were better, being a crown prince didn't necessarily make one the best in the world. A favorable environment and conditions were just supplementary; the most important thing was always one's own effort!

However, Po Kong, after all, was the product of a great clan's upbringing, with a keen mind and deep scheming. Looking deeply at Xin Yun, Po Kong said in a low voice, "You aren't just flattering me, are you? I don't feel myself to be that important."

"Psh..." Disdainfully curling his lip, Xin Yun shook his head and said, "Do I need to flatter you? It's not like I'm your subordinate, nor is there any need for me to use my Treasure Sword to curry favor with you; it's completely unnecessary!"

Speaking thus, Xin Yun's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he chuckled, "The person I admire is you alone. To tell you the truth, you're my biggest hypothetical adversary to date. Sooner or later, we'll meet on the battlefield, and I'm eagerly looking forward to crossing swords with you."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong's eyes gradually lit up. He knew that Xin Yun was speaking the truth because he felt the same way about Xin Yun. This being who had once threatened his life was also his greatest hypothetical enemy. One day, they would settle things in a true battle, but that day was still far off. Neither of them was ready yet, and they both lacked certainty, so they could only wait...

Observing Po Kong's spirited demeanor, Xin Yun resolutely said, "What I value isn't the current you. Right now, you're still overshadowed by your clan's brilliance, unable to manifest your own worth!"

Listening to Xin Yun's words, Po Kong couldn't help but show a shade of melancholy. Indeed... Under the shine of the clan, no matter what achievements he made, they all seemed so ordinary. It would be strange if it weren't so.

As he was feeling dispirited, Xin Yun raised his voice and declaimed, "Today, you are honored because of your clan, but in days to come... your clan will surely shine brightly because of you. Thus... I reiterate my words, as long as you're willing to do me these three favors, the deal is set!"

Taking a deep breath and for a moment... Po Kong felt more exhilarated than ever before. Yes... right now, he was indeed advancing through the power of his clan, but one day, he would become the pride of the entire clan! He had absolute confidence in this.

Gazing intently at Xin Yun, after a long time... Po Kong firmly said, "Okay, since you hold me in such high esteem, then how could I not agree? As long as it's not a betrayal of my clan, I can help with any favor!"

"Ha ha..." Listening to Po Kong's lofty words, Xin Yun shook his head and said, "Don't agree so recklessly. If I asked you to help me pursue the girl you like, would you help with that too?"

"I... that!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong hesitated. Indeed... Would he help with such a favor? It certainly wasn't betraying his clan!

And that was the better scenario. What if Xin Yun asked him to help pursue his own wife? Was Po Kong supposed to help Xin Yun chase after his own wife? That would be too much...

Seeing Po Kong's expression turn alarmed, Xin Yun laughed heartily and said, "Rest assured, I won't do that. The help I need is only within your capacity, and you can refuse. I believe... as long as it doesn't touch your inner taboos, you won't refuse, right?"
