(This book is not about a saintly protagonist.) Shen Lang, who was fired by his company, unexpectedly obtained the 'Myriad Items Trading System' and has since begun to explore countless wor...
After dismissing everyone around, only Meng Xiaobai, Shen Lang, and a broken Great Emperor's soul remained.
Shen Lang looked at the Ghost Ring in Meng Xiaobai's hand and said slowly, "Emperor Wuji, Zhao Wuji."
As soon as these words were spoken, a strong wind suddenly arose around the pavilion.
Shen Lang scoffed at this, saying, "Emperor Wuji has already been reduced to a soul, so stop pretending."
Zhao Wuji was currently only a soul entity; crossing the barrier of time and space had exhausted his soul power. If it weren't for the Ghost Ring, this divine artifact, Zhao Wuji would probably have already been annihilated.
This is already his limit in creating extraordinary phenomena.
Then, a faint, almost imperceptible soul appeared in front of Shen Lang.
"Boy, who exactly are you? How do you know my name?" Zhao Wuji's soul stared intently at Shen Lang.
Once bitten by a snake, twice shy. This is especially true for the Wuji Emperor, who once suffered betrayal from even his closest relatives.
At his level, once a seed is planted in his heart, it will quickly grow into a towering tree, becoming a demon in his heart.
Even though Zhao Wuji is now a broken soul, he was once a great emperor.
The emperor's authority was as imposing as a mountain; even a single doubtful glance from him made Shen Lang feel immense pressure.
Suppressing the discomfort emanating from his very soul, Shen Lang smiled faintly at Zhao Wuji and said, "I am the only person in this world who can help you. If you think you can leave Blue Star with this piece of trash behind you, then you can go back to your Ghost Ring and see when he can transcend Blue Star and take you back to the Xuan Tian Realm."
Shen Lang had initially held a sliver of goodwill towards Meng Xiaobai for daring to attend the meeting alone. However, Meng Xiaobai's sudden departure instantly extinguished any remaining goodwill he had towards her.
Whether Meng Xiaobai did it to uphold the Meng family's ancestral precepts or for some other reason, that's no longer Shen Lang's concern.
The price Xiao Yu paid for refusing Shen Lang was lifelong slavery in order to gain a second chance at the deal. This was also because Xiao Yu possessed a red-tier talent.
As for Meng Xiaobai, he was nothing more than the young master of the Meng family. To him, he was of no use whatsoever except for adding a little fun.
The moment Meng Xiaobai rejected Shen Lang, she had already lost her only chance.
He is not Xiao Yu, and he does not possess the red talent.
Even with the Chaos Holy Body, without breaking the seal, he's still just a useless piece of trash. That's why the system didn't emphasize his talent.
Whether it's Shen Lang or the system's assessment, Meng Xiaobai is now just a piece of trash, with nothing special about him except for his good background.
Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Meng Xiaobai's face instantly turned ashen.
The darkness that had enveloped him was about to be dispelled by a faint ray of light.
Shen Lang's words were undoubtedly a death sentence for himself.
"Kid, are you saying you have a way to help me?" Zhao Wuji looked at Shen Lang suspiciously and asked.
He didn't think Shen Lang had any special abilities; he just felt that Shen Lang possessed something that could help Meng Xiaobai open up her meridians.
Shen Lang's cultivation talent had long been hidden by the system, and even Zhao Wuji could not see any clues, only thinking that he was just an ordinary person.
However, he was very curious about how Shen Lang could see through him.
Shen Lang nodded and said, "It's just about transcending this world and returning to the Xuan Tian Realm."
"You don't need to doubt me. The fact that I know your background proves that you have no secrets from me."
"Right now, you have no choice but to believe me."
Shen Lang's words struck Zhao Wuji's soul like a giant hammer, and also hit Meng Xiaobai's heart hard.
"How can I trust you?" Zhao Wuji asked, looking at Shen Lang.
Shen Lang didn't say anything, but instead directly handed over a contract.
Zhao Wuji waved his hand, and the contract flew in front of him.
This is a blank contract with no text on it.
However, the aura emanating from the contract shocked the soul of the Wuji Emperor who had once successfully attained enlightenment.
Zhao Wuji's soul sensed the aura emanating from the contract and exclaimed with immense excitement, "This is...this is..."
Just as he was about to blurt it out, Shen Lang smiled and shook his head, gesturing for him to be quiet.
Zhao Wuji nodded excitedly, returned the contract to Shen Lang, and returned to the Ghost Ring without hesitation.
Then, it autonomously controlled the Ghost Ring and flew to Shen Lang's side.
Shen Lang took the Ghost Ring without hesitation and put it on the middle finger of his right hand.
When Meng Xiaobai came to his senses, he was dumbfounded.
"What did I miss?" Meng Xiaobai muttered to himself.
Shen Lang walked up to Meng Xiaobai, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Young Master Meng, I have a deal to make. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
"What deal?" Meng Xiaobai stared blankly at Shen Lang, completely numb.
Shen Lang's lips curled into a wicked smile, then he handed a contract to Meng Xiaobai and said, "Sign this and I will open up all the meridians in your body."
Meng Xiaobai took the contract and glanced at it.
"Now there is a mortal named Meng Xiaobai who trades his cultivation talent with the All Things Exchange in exchange for the opportunity to open up all the meridians in his body."
At the same time, it is necessary to keep what happened today confidential.
The contract serves as proof, and the Great Way bears witness.
After blankly reading the contents of the contract, Meng Xiaobai looked at Shen Lang and asked in a daze, "Young Master Shen, what is cultivation talent?"
Shen Lang smiled, revealing his white teeth, and said, "It's nothing, it's just something you don't need anyway. All you need to know is that after signing this contract, you will become a martial arts prodigy."
Meng Xiaobai did not agree to Shen Lang's request. Instead, she looked at the contract with a serious expression, as if she was hesitating about something.
Shen Lang's eyes darted around, and he reached out to take back the contract, smiling as he said, "Since Young Master Meng is unwilling, then let's call it quits."
Then Shen Lang coldly sneered, "I've given you a chance to start over. Since you're unwilling, I won't force you."
"Shuang'er, see the guest out."
After saying that, Shen Lang shouted loudly.
"Yes, young master." Shuang'er's figure appeared beside Shen Lang in an instant, pointed to the bluestone path under the pavilion, and said to Meng Xiaobai, "Young master Meng, please."
At this moment, Zhao Wuji's soul suddenly appeared.
He said anxiously to Meng Xiaobai, "Kid, hurry up and agree. This is your only chance in this life!"
Meng Xiaobai felt a sense of closeness to Zhao Wuji, perhaps stemming from their years of spending time together.
He looked at Zhao Wuji and asked, "Senior, could you tell me what my talent for cultivation is?"
Zhao Wuji had only introduced himself in Meng Xiaobai's mind, and before he could mention Meng Xiaobai's Chaotic Holy Body, he was summoned by Shen Lang.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji's eyes darted around furtively, then he looked at Meng Xiaobai with a pitying expression, sighed heavily, and said dejectedly, "Silly boy, you have no talent for cultivation at all."
