Chapter 69: Concerns? Not enough chips?
Finally, he said, "Just watch it. If you find out that he didn't participate in the offering, don't make a mistake."
Hou Saiyin lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Afterwards, everyone returned to the palace and reported the current progress to the Sultan.
The king ordered: "Send Celilda and Vajira here."
Tu Xing lowered her eyes and stood aside, wanting to put her hand into her bag. This was in the hall, and there were people everywhere. She hesitated for a moment and did not move.
After three or four minutes, the figure of Waji Xia appeared first. As he came in, his eyes moved rapidly, and a guard on each side was staring at him.
The last one to come in was Celilda, followed by Xue Rui and Xie Sang.
Celilda was dressed in a black robe and looked quite energetic. "Your Majesty, it's rare for you to summon me on this occasion, but what's the urgent matter?"
The Sultan looked down from his high seat. "Wajhi once claimed that he had been supplying you with magical herbs for my potions, spending thousands of gold coins on them. But is that true?"
The black-robed woman immediately looked towards Waji, while the man hurriedly half-bowed respectfully:
"My lord, they were all carefully selected. It's just that those who have touched magic are so rare in this world. Even if I don't have any merits, I have worked hard!"
"Your Majesty possesses divine power, but he is also deeply troubled by it. Protecting Your Majesty first is the only way to protect the people of the world. My actions are indeed inappropriate, but my intentions are good. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!"
After Wajixia finished speaking loudly, he knelt on the ground and bowed deeply.
Celilda's words were unclear: "There are some, but not many useful ones."
After saying this, the woman looked around at everyone present with a strange expression, "Why is such a big deal going on about such a small matter?"
Tu Xing lowered her eyes and moved them. From her tone, it seemed that she was on Waji's side.
As expected, the next sentence says, "In the past, Your Majesty was trapped in a maze. He tried countless methods, but none of them worked, and the people were in a state of panic."
"Wajiya's method is probably working, otherwise we would have to replace several people here."
"Your Majesty, if you want to tame divine power, you must pay a price."
"Waji has taken all the blame, but he shouldn't go so far as to burn his bridges and make things so disheartening."
After a brief silence, the Black Wizard spoke. No one except the Sultan could refute him, including the fledgling Tu Xing.
Not long after, the Sultan raised his hand and said, "Get up."
"I've been punished, so that's the end of it."
"Vajna has been dismissed from his position as Minister of Affairs. He will now serve as the Ambassador of Collection under your name, Celilda."
Waji raised his head, his face full of surprise, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Celilda bowed slightly, looking pleased to accept the offer. "Yes."
Tu Xing lowered his eyes a little to reduce his presence, thinking to himself: This hasn't changed.
The Sultan turned to the side and said: "Houseyin, you must strictly investigate this place."
"We've checked it out. One month after the sale you mentioned is complete, we'll determine your position and punishment."
The man who was called knelt on the ground and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I obey your command."
The Sultan showed little interest: "Prepare to return to the palace."
Everyone knelt down, and Tu Xing followed suit and knelt on one knee.
When most people left, the young man thought of something and leaned closer to Sai Yin and whispered:
"There are a lot of secret compartments in this mansion, right?"
"I remember Waji was very panicked because someone was searching for us, but we didn't find anything all morning. I was afraid they had moved away early."
Hou Saiyin nodded hesitantly, "I will investigate thoroughly, but what I find cannot be more serious than the crime that has been exposed."
"As for His Majesty himself, not much can be changed. The overall situation has been determined."
A thought flashed in the man's eyes. "Or are you looking for something? I can help you find it. Or do you also have a grudge against Waji?"
Tu Xing shook his head. There was nothing else except magic.
In the past, he was completely standing opposite to Waji, but after Celilda came forward and finished speaking, he suddenly felt confused.
Are these really just an exaggeration in the face of such powerful forces?
After a moment, I found a deeper point. I didn't want this kind of people to surround Sudan and lead him astray.
Especially since Waji Xia will also be under the name of a woman, and because of this confrontation, there will probably be more troubles in the future.
At that moment, Tu Xing answered casually, said a few words to Yin, and left with mixed feelings.
Just as I was about to turn the corner, a voice rang out, "This way."
Tu Xing raised his eyes and recognized that the speaker was Xue Rui. He glanced around and quickly followed her to a secluded corner.
Xue Rui got straight to the point: "How's your research on that item?"
The young man put his hand into his pocket and rubbed the surface. It was very smooth at this moment, so he did not take it out.
Actually, I didn’t really want it at first, and I was going to return it after the conversation depending on the situation.
But now I suddenly found a matching shell, which might have a huge improvement. I didn’t even take a second look at it, so I might as well keep it for now.
He said, "I will give you fifty silver coins, minus the four you pledged, which makes forty-six."
"I only have gold coins now. Can you give me change?"
Xue Rui shook her head in disappointment. "What I wanted to exchange originally was the method for you to obtain the magic power."
"Do you have any concerns? Can't you tell me, or do you not have enough leverage?"
"I'd rather give you money than share information. If you're willing to share the information, I'll give you four silver coins."
Tu Xing's mind flashed with Sudan's face and the bloodstains on the bed. He said lightly, "It's inconvenient to disclose."
The woman's expression turned cold. "Indeed, you possess this trace of demonic power. Your status before His Majesty and Celilda is extraordinary."
"It's been less than two weeks, and you're already below those two."
"If a second one appears, all the honors will be weakened, so naturally I won't agree."
Tu Xing lowered his head, then raised it again with a smile on his face, "Now that you mention it, I'm even less willing to give it to you."
"You!" Xue Rui was furious, her eyes shining like fire, and she raised her finger to point at someone.
She looked extremely regretful: "So you definitely won't tell me?!"
Seeing this, Tu Xing smiled and said, "The chips are indeed not enough. I can tell you when I have more power. It will take about half a year. Can you wait?"
Xue Rui raised an eyebrow, "Half a year?"
Tu Xing: "Yes, you have been with her for three years, so half a year shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
"If you just want strength, you can be like Xiesang and Evander, with their black tattoos, and they look very strong."
Xue Rui touched her face and said, "It's so dark!"
"Your Majesty and I are in the most perfect and pure state of Origin Power."
"The others are second-rate and last resort."
"I always try my best to avoid that medicine. Am I sick and would I take the initiative to drink it?!"
After hearing this, Tu Xing suddenly felt that it made sense and was a little offended: "Just ignore what I said and consider this suggestion for only half a year."
Xue Rui's expression changed. "How about this? I'll give you something else, and you tell me in two months. How about that?"
