"I know the bad news is that my father is dead, but what about the good news?" Feng Qing said nonchalantly.
"Well……"
Unexpectedly, Feng Qing turned out to be such a filial daughter.
Jiang Deng coughed lightly, "The good news is that you have the blood of the divine beast Qingluan in your body, so your path to becoming an immortal will be smoother than that of ordinary cultivators."
This can also explain why Feng Qing’s qualifications are so good. It turns out that her ancestors were divine beasts!
Not only was Feng Qing not happy, her face even twitched.
She then asked why she was able to refine the Green Feather Strange Fire so quickly, and it turned out to be an ancestral skill.
However, it is really not a happy thing to know that I am a descendant of a bird. It is equivalent to two pieces of bad news.
Jiang Deng asked curiously, "Everything has been resolved, Feng Qing, why are you still frowning?"
"My father's death has left me with only one question."
"What?"
Feng Qing thought seriously and said, "Peak Master, who do you think should be the emperor?"
"If you let me see..." Jiang Deng looked at Feng Qing and smiled, "It would be great if you could be the emperor."
Feng Qing was stunned, "Can I be the emperor too?"
"Why not?"
"But they all say that women can't be emperors, and can only marry and raise children. Throughout thousands of years of history, there's no precedent for a woman becoming emperor."
Jiang Deng sneered, "They also say that women can't cultivate immortality! Aren't we practicing just the same, and even stronger than them?"
Hearing this, Feng Qing was shocked.
In a trance, she seemed to see a road ahead that she had never dared to think about before. But now, as long as she wanted, she could take this road, and no one could stop her...
"By the way," Jiang Deng finally said, "Your pure Yin spirit body is an excellent furnace cauldron physique that everyone covets. This is why you were abducted by the people of the Paradise Palace. If you can become emperor and have the luck of a country at your side, you can hide your physique."
Feng Qing had been persuaded for the most part. She pursed her lips and said, "Peak Master, before making this decision, I want to go see my mother first..."
"Of course!"
The two of them walked down the stairs and returned to the hall.
Before they walked out of the hall, they heard Jiang Zhiling and Ying Ziru arguing outside.
Outside the palace.
Jiang Zhiling folded her arms, looking down at Ying Ziru lying on the ground, and said calmly, "If you want us to release you, you can pay a ransom of one thousand high-grade spirit stones."
Ying Ziru said angrily, "Just one hundred high-grade spirit stones, no more!"
"Two thousand high-grade spirit stones."
Hearing Jiang Zhiling double the ransom, Ying Ziru's eyes went dark. "If you're asking for such a high price, why don't you just rob someone?"
Jiang Zhiling said as a matter of course: "I am not robbing someone?"
“…”
Ying Ziru was speechless for a moment, then pointed at Feng Jiuyou, who was distracted beside him, and said, "Why don't you ask him for the spirit stones, but only ask me?"
Jiang Zhiling said confidently, "The other country has been destroyed, what can they offer?"
Ying Ziru: “…”
It would be fine if he couldn't win against Jiang Deng, but why couldn't he even win against Jiang Deng's sister!
"two hundred!"
"Three thousand!"
Hearing that Jiang Zhiling was about to increase the amount, Ying Ziru quickly begged for mercy, "...Auntie! Can I just call you Auntie? It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that I only have two hundred high-grade spirit stones on me!"
"Aren't you the Young Palace Master of the Paradise Palace? How come you don't have any spirit stones?"
Not only Jiang Zhiling was dissatisfied, but even Jiang Deng, who was walking over, was dissatisfied and echoed, "Yeah, where are your spirit stones?"
Hearing this, Ying Ziru revealed an angry expression, "It's all that damned demon cultivator Li Lailai! Not only did he steal all my spiritual weapons, he even took away all the spiritual stones in my storage bag."
"These two hundred spirit stones are what I asked the disciples of the Paradise Palace in the secret realm for. They're the money I need to go home!"
Jiang Deng: “…” Sorry to bother you.
Feng Qing couldn't help but put on a smile on her face. She knew very well that this was another good thing done by the Peak Master.
"cough!"
Jiang Deng coughed awkwardly and said, "Alright, I don't want your money. Just use something of the same value as mine."
Ying Ziru: “…”
He thought Jiang Deng would let him go because he was so poor! He didn't expect that he was overthinking...
But why is Jiang Deng's behavior so similar to that of Li Lailai, the shrewd man who plucks feathers from passing geese?
"I won't give it to you. You might as well just kill me!" Ying Ziru stiffened his neck, his expression firm.
Jiang Deng smiled and said, "I won't kill you, but if you pay the ransom honestly, I will erase the rune on your head."
Ying Zi subconsciously touched his bright forehead. He couldn't resist the temptation after all. "Okay! You have to keep your word!"
"certainly."
After receiving Jiang Deng's affirmative answer, Ying Ziru quickly took out a palm-sized piece of paper from his storage bag and handed it to Jiang Deng. "This is an invitation letter from the Gold and Stone Auction House. They send one to each of the three major sects every month. The price on the black market is one thousand high-grade spirit stones per piece."
"With this letter, you can enjoy the highest standard of VIP treatment at the Jinshi Auction House. You can bid in the private rooms upstairs. If you plan to sell the items, the auction house will take the lowest commission."
"I was originally planning to go to the Gold and Stone Auction House to buy some things, but now I don't have many spirit stones on me, and I can't buy anything good, so I might as well give you this invitation."
Jiang Deng didn't take it immediately, and asked curiously, "Jinshi Auction House?"
"Yes," Ying Ziru nodded and explained, "Jinshi Auction House is the largest auction house in Feiran Spiritual Domain. They hold an auction every month. There are all kinds of treasures, even heavenly spiritual weapons and skills. As long as you can afford the price, you can take it away."
Jiang Deng touched his chin and asked, "Are all invitations the same? Or can Jinshi Auction House identify who the invitation is for based on the invitation?"
"All the same."
Jiang Deng took the invitation and looked at it carefully. It was made of expensive gold and stone paper, and it stated the time and place of the auction.
It will be held five days later in Bai'an City, which is close to the Paradise Palace.
In addition, a miniature spiritual energy formation was arranged on the invitation letter.
The formation was arranged with great skill, containing the special spiritual energy of the person who arranged it, and could not be easily forged. Apart from that, there were no other special marks.
Jiang Deng then put the invitation away with peace of mind. She was indeed very interested in this auction.
After robbing for so long, she now has tens of thousands of high-quality spirit stones on her. She can use them to buy something she needs, or sell some unused items.
but……
Jiang Deng stared at Ying Ziru with some dissatisfaction, "Besides this, what else?"
