Seeing how shocked Han Sen looked, Hai’er took his reaction for a confirmation . She then murmured, “We shouldn’t talk here . We should find someplace else to chat . ”
“I think you have the wrong guy; I have no clue about what you’re talking about . ” Han Sen acted through his shock .
Hai’er lifted her lips in a little smile and said, “There is no use in pretending . I am a thief, and nothing escapes my senses . I will tell this to a Buddha King; you know what will happen to you and Speechless if I do, right?”
Before Han Sen could put another word in, Hai’er continued . “Oh, but just so you know, I am not being hostile . Actually, I would like to strike a trade with you . ”
After saying that, Hai’er pulled Han Sen away from Buddha’s Path . They walked out of the city and went to the banks of a nearby river .
Han Sen wished to hear what she wanted to say, so he didn’t resist following her out .
“Okay, let’s talk here . ” Hai’er let Han Sen go, then sat down atop a rock . She smiled and said, “Given your relationship with Speechless Buddha Lady, I can only assume you know the secrets to heaven . ”

“What secrets?” Han Sen asked Hai’er .
“Stop pretending! Heaven has opened many times, and many races have been here . Only ten of them can reach the end, each and every time . I believe there is a secret to this somewhere . ” Hai’er was peering right at Han Sen when she continued . “With Speechless’ reputation, she must assuredly know how to reach the other side . I don’t want anything from you . All I want is for you to take me with you and help me reach the end . If you do, I’ll keep the relationship between you two a secret . I promise . ”
“I think you have misunderstood us . I know Speechless, but we are not in a relationship with each other . In fact, we have only ever met twice,” Han Sen said .
Hai’er looked annoyed by the denial . Her face filled up with frost and she said, “This is bad . I am going to tell Buddha King about it right now . ”
“So what if he knows?” Han Sen laughed at Hai’er .
Hai’er looked back at Han Sen with disdain . “Still pretending? You can’t hide anything from a Pirate . ^ every trick in the book to get others to join their creed . Marriage is one such method . Many creatures in this universe have been tethered to the Buddha in this way . Like Happy Buddha King; he was the best in the entire universe . Yet even he was suckered into one of those arrangements . Speechless is famous, and she will have a marriage with someone powerful . It’s a must for her . If Buddha King leams about you two, do you think he will let you go lightly? You should know about this . ”
Han Sen didn’t know the Buddha had such a culture, and he found it rather interesting .

When Han Sen didn’t respond, Hai’er went on to say, “Others don’t know the Buddha are this way, but we do . They are not much smarter than the Pirate, you know . I don’t really like them, and more than that, I don’t want to expose your story . If you help me, it is a win-win situation for all of us . ”
You know who I am?” Han Sen asked Hai’er .
Hai’er was surprised and said, “How am I supposed to know who you are? You’re just a lowly Viscount Even if you are famous, the Buddha won’t let you be with her . ”
Han Sen smiled and said, “I am the student of the Rebate called Knife Queen . This is my first time here, and it marks my third encounter with Speechless . Nothing else is going on, okay? You are wholeheartedly mistaken . ”
Hai’er frowned at Han Sen . She looked right at him . Seeing him turn to leave, she tugged at him and said, “Even if the two of you aren’t together, how about we co-operate anyway? Let’s walk through heaven together!”
“What benefit is there for us to co-operate?” Han Sen asked Hai’er .
“There is a lot . I am the number one genius of the Pirate . Everyone knows the name Hai’er . She is a rare and very talented person . I will be deified, one day . ” Hai’er kept complimenting herself, showing utterly no embarrassment .

“If you and I co-operate, it would be easier to traverse heaven . ” Hai’er patted Han Sen on his shoulder .
“If you’re as good as you say, why do you need Speechless to guide you?” Han Sen laughed at her .
Hai’er’s face did not change, and she said, “I am certain I can get through it, but this is a once-in-lifetime affair . It’s good to take extra precautionary measures, don’t you think?”
Han Sen turned around and left, ignoring her .
Hai’er followed and pleaded, “Let’s talk about it! State your conditions . ”
“I don’t know anything about what to expect in heaven, so following me is pointless . ” Han Sen knew Hai’er was suspicious about the prospect of his relationship with Speechless, so he kept walking resolutely .
Hai’er gritted her teeth and pulled out something . “You must know this . If you co-operate with me, then this is yours . ”
Han Sen looked at Hai’er’s hands and saw a tablet . It was palm-sized . There were many words, smaller than grains of rice, etched into it . There was nothing particularly special about it, though .
“What is it?” Han Sen looked at Hai’er’s tablet dubiously .
Hai’er looked shocked . She stared at Han Sen, and said, “Really? You don’t know about the Virtual Tablet?’
“What is a Virtual Tablet?” Han Sen looked at it and asked .
Hai’er saw that Han Sen was honestly confused, so she shook it in front of him and said, “The Virtual Tablet is a powerful treasure left behind by a mysterious, higher race . It has that mysterious race’s geno art . When the Buddha received the Virtual Tablet, they absorbed the talents to become as they are . Many geno arts have come from this Virtual Tablet . This is one of many . The Pirate unearthed it from some old ruins, and no one else knows about this . But it can be yours for the price of a co-operative partnership . ”
“How do I know if this is real or not?” Han Sen was curious .
“Aren’t you Knife Queen’s student? If you let her take a look, she’ll know the truth . She won’t lie, either,” Hai’er said .
“Okay . If this is real, I will cross heaven with you . ” Han Sen took the tablet . Hai’er had no relationship with Speechless, and she was practically giving him something for free . He wasn’t going to reject that .
