Chapter 233 A Small Interest
When it comes to Lucifer, Li Muhan feels a bit of a headache.
This demon is different from Baal, nor is he a transfer student like Hypnos. He is very obedient.
It was not opened by his own power. In this case, Li Muhan was not prepared to face such a terrifying existence that was no less terrifying than Baal.
But he thought again.
Lucifer's first seal has been released, which means that Li Muhan now has the power to open the realm, the Red Dragon Purgatory.
And this brings up a question.
Can he avoid direct contact with Lucifer and directly utilize the power of this fallen angel...
However, Lingying keenly understood Li Muhan's thoughts and rejected this idea without hesitation: "You're probably overthinking it. If you want to stamp your own unique mark on Fu Jiang Zhen Mo, then you will have to face and resolve the issue of Lucifer."
"It would be unwise for me to communicate directly with Lucifer, and I have a bit of a problem with him."
Li Muhan also expressed his thoughts.
No one knows what is in his body better than him. The demon once used Xia Yue's power to run wild to ask him to help him remove the seal, and after being hit into the fragment of the Heart of the World, he directly took over his body.
If Sun Yan had not appeared in time, Tianhai City, Beiyuan City and the remaining members of the Special Management Bureau would probably have suffered a devastating disaster.
Therefore, Li Muhan has a deep understanding and vigilance about how to deal with the relationship with Lucifer.
"Captain Li Muhan, I hope you can understand."
Lingying lowered her voice and said, "You are the warden, and he is just your prisoner."
Haha...he's a prison warden. I feel like a landlord who is often owed rent.
Li Muhan couldn't help but complain in his heart, but in order to prevent the Fujiang Zhenmo from being completely buried in his hands, he secretly made up his mind.
"Okay, I'll talk to him, but there's no guarantee it will work."
Li Muhan sighed and then closed his eyes.
Just when Xia Yue was planning to find a place to sit for a while, Lingying suddenly looked at her with a smile.
"......what?"
Seeing Lingying's smile, which seemed profound, Xia Yue couldn't help but feel uneasy, and subconsciously took a step back. At this moment, Lingying said in a friendly yet slightly teasing tone, "While we respect every guest, Miss Xia Yue, you should know that the cost of my forging items is not cheap at all. By the way, Miss Xia Yue and Captain Li Muhan, are they... that kind of relationship, right?"
Xia Yue nodded slightly.
"That would be great. I hope Miss Xia Yue can pay the money for Captain Li first. We collect the money first and then do the work here."
"......How much?"
Hearing this, Xia Yue pondered for a moment. She recalled the savings she had earned from her hard work at Skull's BBQ restaurant, plus Li Muhan's hard-earned salary at the Special Management Bureau. This was more than enough to cover her daily expenses, and she even had tens of thousands saved.
However, when Lingying smiled and shook her head, saying frankly that her fees were beyond their affordability, Xia Yue couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart.
"No, no, no, my fees are not something you can afford."
Then, Lingying slowly approached Xia Yue, put her head close to her ear, and whispered a frightening number.
At that moment, Xia Yue widened her eyes, as if she was stunned by this astronomical figure.
Lingying asked again: "Then, Miss Xia Yue, can you afford so much money?"
“No, I don’t have that much money…”
Looking at Xia Yue's embarrassed expression, Lingying's lips flickered with a sly smile, as if she had already anticipated this scene.
She sighed in mock resignation.
"Oh, this is really tricky. Look, I've already got the furnace lit, and now you're telling me I don't have the money... Well, in that case, at least pay the furnace start-up fee. It's not a big amount, only 300,000. However, considering we're in the same business, I'll make a concession and give you half the friendship price - that's 150,000."
“Hmm…”
Faced with Lingying's sudden disguised pressure, Xia Yue's eyes flickered and her hands were nervously intertwined. She was obviously in extreme distress.
"Could it be that you don't even have 150,000?"
Seeing this, Lingying deliberately raised her tone, questioning in an almost exaggerated voice: "Hey, hey, hey, you two don't even have 150,000 yuan, right?! Miss Xia Yue, I know you don't get paid as a special detention member in the Special Management Bureau, but Li Muhan is at least a captain-level figure. Besides, Miss Xia Yue, your family..."
Xia Yue finally couldn't help but interrupt Ling Ying, "Okay, okay... I understand. I will do my best to raise the money. Can I have some time to prepare?"
Lingying turned around and sat on a wooden chair, her long legs crossed and raised, her tender white thighs faintly visible under the high-slit cheongsam, which was very seductive.
"Hmm~ What should we do? There's no precedent for this, Miss Xia Yue~ What do you think~?"
"...I will try my best to raise the money as soon as possible, so I hope you can understand and help Li Muhan, please." Xia Yue's words were full of determination and pleading.
Lingying smiled slyly, pretending to be serious, and slowly responded, "Ah, Miss Xia Yue, you're not married, so there's no need for you to share this expense with Captain Li. Well, if it's Captain Li, I can let him pay on credit. Of course, since it's on credit, I can't just do charity for free. I'll still have to pay a small amount of interest."
As she spoke, Lingying licked the corner of her lips, her eyes flickering with a hint of seduction. This action immediately made Xia Yue's cheeks flush.
"Wha, what interest!?"
Xia Yue's face turned red when she saw this.
"Hmm~ How should I put it, a demon~ I haven't tasted it yet, what does a demon taste like, if that's okay..."
"You, what do you want to do! No, I tell you, it's absolutely impossible! You..."
Xia Yue pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a name for this seemingly kind-hearted but cunning woman in front of her, "You violent hammer girl!"
"You violent hammer child!"
Hearing the nickname Xia Yue had given her, Lingying couldn't help but grumble, "Oh my! It seems Captain Li is truly your Achilles' heel. He can't be touched at all. Okay, okay, if that's the case, I won't embarrass you psychics. After all, we're all in the same boat, so why make it so cheesy? How about this, Miss Xia Yue? If you agree to do me a small favor, I'll consider this a gift and write it off."
Xia Yue felt that she was really helpless with the woman in front of her. Every word she said seemed to be serious, but...
There are also some irregular ones.
