Chapter 120: Departure, Righteous Path Alliance!
The most serious issue wasn't with Master, but with Ji Shishu.
With Master, at most, I'd just get a scolding.
But Ji Shishu... if she found out about this, how would she see me from now on?
"Let's call this a draw between us. I won't tell Martial Uncle, and you're not allowed to tell anyone either."
"Of course not!" Chi Jiuyu stood up. "It's fine if you don't say anything, but now that you've mentioned it, I realize your situation is much more serious than mine."
Regarding Master, after years of repeated provocations, her threshold for getting angry with me is already very high.
At most, I'll just get disciplined.
But it's different with Senior Brother.
He's incredibly rich; not taking this chance to extort him would be a disservice to myself.
"What else do you want?" The young man in sunglasses looked at her coldly.
This guy is getting greedy!
It's all that damn Li Ke's fault!
"You still need to give me fifteen... No! I want 300,000 contribution points!"
"Alright!" The young man in sunglasses agreed readily, picked up the sunglasses from the table, put them on, and leaned back again. "300,000 contribution points, I'll transfer them to you in a few minutes."
Seeing how decisive he was, Chi Jiuyu couldn't help but be stunned, feeling a strange sense of regret in her heart.
She felt Li Ke she had missed an opportunity to get rich.
Did I ask for too little?
"What's wrong? I've agreed to your request. Are you trying to go back on your word?"
I just overestimated this guy's appetite.
"Of course not!" Chi Jiuyu retorted subconsciously.
As a person of integrity, things Li Ke raising the price on the spot... she also sat down, then picked up the juice and took a sip.
After a moment of inexplicable regret, a strong curiosity followed.
Judging from Senior Brother's immediate response of asking what I wanted, he must have experienced something Li Ke this before.
"Did Senior Sister also threaten you with this?"
"What do you think?"
If she can hang out with you, what kind of good person could Li Ke be?
"It seems so. Senior Sister couldn't possibly miss an opportunity Li Ke this." She knew Senior Sister's character too well. "So, what did she take from you?"
Why should I tell you?
The young man in sunglasses originally wanted to say this.
But then he thought, if this guy knew how much that damn Li Ke extorted from him, under the strong contrast, he'd probably regret it to death!
"Actually, it's not much, it's this number of yours." He held up a finger.
What does showing one mean?
"One million three hundred thousand?" Chi Jiuyu probed.
"Be bolder."
"Three million?"
Saying this, Chi Jiuyu was a bit surprised. Did Senior Sister actually ask for that much?!
"Is your vision only this limited?"
Huh?
That's not much?
"Could it be... thirty million?!"
Only then did the young man in sunglasses lower his hand. "That's right, converted it's probably over thirty million contribution points."
Over thirty million!
Although I knew this Senior Brother was very rich, this was a bit too exaggerated, wasn't it? Just one piece of dark history in exchange for so much!
With over thirty million contribution points, you could even buy a Starship and smash it!
...Suddenly, I really want to raise the price on the spot, what should I do?
There was once an opportunity to get rich placed before me, but I didn't cherish it...
The young man in sunglasses looked at the stunned Chi Jiuyu, feeling very satisfied.
This is the effect I wanted!
............
Several days later, in the early morning.
Sword Sect Inner Sect, Starry Sky Jump Great Formation!
Between the towering mountains, clouds and mist swirled, and points of starlight converged from all directions, outlining a vast and complex network of Starry Sky formations, with each rune flowing with brilliant light, moving Li Ke spiritual snakes within.
At the core of the formation was a black high tower that resembled a sharp sword, its surface etched with profound formation patterns that shimmered with a faint blue light.
Starships, both large and small, hovered in the clouds and mist, their tails or sides constantly spraying streams of faint blue spiritual energy particles, providing power for the Starships.
"Notice, the Starry Sky Jump Great Formation will activate in half an hour." A clear female voice echoed through the mountains.
This time, it was no longer the dull mechanical voice, but a real person's voice.
In a waiting hall at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Yunlu looked up at the Starships hovering in the clouds and mist, feeling a sense of awe.
Is this the largest Starry Sky Jump Great Formation in the Central Continent?
Chi Jiuyu, on the other hand, was listlessly slurping a bowl of noodles beside her.
She hadn't yet emerged from the disappointment of losing thirty million contribution points.
"When do we board the ship?" Zhang Yunlu asked.
After adapting to the Starry Sky Simulation Trial Ground for a few days, most of her contribution points were gone, but she had also cultivated the "Purple Qi Concealing Form Hiding Spirit Method" to minor completion and had fully adapted to the Starry Sky environment.
"I'll get on after I finish eating!" Chi Jiuyu said weakly.
"Are you... okay?"
Zhang Yunlu had long noticed that Chi Jiuyu's state was a bit off. Normally, she could finish a chicken leg in one go, but today it was taking her this long even for a bowl of noodles.
Chi Jiuyu slurped a couple more mouthfuls of noodles, then put down her chopsticks: "Xiao Yunlu, if there was an opportunity to get rich placed before you, but you missed it, would you regret it?"
"Yes."
"Oh, I thought you'd comfort me and say no." Chi Jiuyu was a bit surprised.
"This is human nature, unavoidable," Zhang Yunlu explained. "But I won't regret it for too long. There's a saying in Saint Emperor Yuan that I don't know if you've heard."
"Emm..." Chi Jiuyu pondered for a moment, "You want to say 'What is meant to be mine will be mine, what is not is not meant to be mine,' right?"
"...Right."
She actually knew?
Zhang Yunlu looked at her: "And you are Chi Jiuyu, even more so you shouldn't be Li Ke this."
Huh?
Chi Jiuyu scratched her head.
I didn't realize Xiao Yunlu, you think so highly of me!
No!
I'm the best in the world!
"Well said!" She stood up abruptly. "We're Chi Jiuyu, how can we be so downcast!"
It's just a mere thirty million contribution points!
I... okay, it still hurts a bit.
"Let's go! Let's board the ship!"
"You're not eating anymore?" Zhang Yunlu looked at the half-finished bowl of noodles.
"Eat what!"
Chi Jiuyu pulled her and walked out.
After a while, a sentence came from afar.
"Oh, by the way, this doesn't count as wasting food, the boss will feed it to the dogs."
............
Sword Sect Outer Sect, Bie Xuening was seeing off Yuan Jun... and Xu Xing with a cold face.
"Then Senior Sister, I'll be back soon. Sword Sect will be as usual, I'll trouble you to look after it."
"Don't worry."
Towards Xu Xing, her tone was quite normal.
But towards Yuan Jun beside her, her gaze was very cold.
Their eyes met.
'You planned this long ago?'
'Of course not, concerning Dao Brother and you, I couldn't sense anything at all, I just heard about Dao Brother's subsequent arrangements and simply made a small suggestion.'
'Bullshit, you planned it.'
'If you think that way, then I can't help it.'
The two were communicating in a way that even Xu Xing couldn't understand.
"Just right, Jiu Yu has also departed." Xu Xing looked at the sky. "I hope when I return, they will also have completed their mission and returned."
These past few days, after Yuan Jun learned from Xu Xing and Bie Xuening that Xu Xing was going to the Lingyin Workshop and also to the Righteous Path Alliance founded by Yuan, she suggested that Xu Xing go to the Righteous Path Alliance first.
The Lingyin Workshop had to wait for his Shizhi, but the Righteous Path Alliance didn't.
Anyway, it would take some time for his Shizhi to complete the mission, and he was free anyway, and it just so happened that she was also preparing to travel within the territory of the Righteous Path Alliance, so they could travel together along the way.
This way, even if he didn't get the answer he wanted, he wouldn't feel bored.
Xu Xing listened, felt it made sense, and discussed it with his Senior Sister.
Bie Xuening really wanted to refuse, but without sufficient reason, she couldn't stop him...
The result was the current situation.
First update, please subscribe.
Actually, I saw the messages from all the readers a long time ago.
Today I sorted out the outline and found that if I continued writing as I was, it would be a bit drawn out.
But these few chapters had to be written, otherwise, the situation at the time of listing would occur.
Just Li Ke Zhang Yunlu, originally there was a lot more to write about her, but in the end, I cut it all out, resulting in her character development not even being as good as Xiao Fan.
But there's nothing to argue about, it's ultimately because I'm a newcomer and my writing skills are insufficient.
However, next, I will make some adjustments and appropriately speed up the pace.
If there are any problems with the subsequent plot, everyone can bring them up, and if they are reasonable, I will adopt them!!!
Thank you!!!
