Chapter 16: Selling Life



Xu Jiujun was originally still thinking about how to ask the system for this teleportation skill to send himself back, but now, he just needs to wait for eighteen years.

After living in an inn on the edge of the imperial city for a month, Xu Jiujun felt that it was a bit deserted, so he bought ten acres of land out of boredom.

He hired people to build a large manor, then hired a housekeeper and dozens of servants. The total cost was less than 100 million spirit stones, which Xu Jiujun called a good deal.

A month later, Xu Jiujun felt that this life was really boring, and the system had been on standby for two months. It must be broken.

"Atong! Atong, are you there, Atong?"

[I'm sleeping, please stop barking, please don't disturb me, thank you.]

"How boring! System, why don't you give me a task? I've been here for two months, and you've been on standby for two months." Xu Jiujun complained, "If you don't say anything, I'll think you've crashed."

[I've detected that Ergou is bored and has a lot of money. I'm issuing you a long-term task: For every thousand spirit stones consumed by the host in the Qinghong Realm, they can be converted into one attribute point.]

[Attribute points can add attributes: strength, speed, defense, lifespan. ]

[Note: Increased attribute: One point of strength can increase physical strength by 10,000 kilograms.]

[A little speed increase can reach 10 kilometers per second.]

[One point of defense can withstand 10,000 kilograms of force. ]

【A little lifespan can add ten years to your lifespan.】

"Can the attribute points be transferred to others for use?" Xu Jiujun asked. He felt that this attribute point did not seem very important to him.

【Can. 】

After receiving a positive response, Xu Jiujun felt that this seemed to be a business...

In this world, there are immortal cultivators, and naturally, there are ordinary people as well. Ordinary people certainly have certain requirements for lifespan and strength. Selling a few life points can earn you 10,000 spirit stones, and 10,000 spirit stones can be exchanged for 10 attribute points...

The chicken and the egg...

This is simply a road to riches.

[This system recommends that the host not sell too many lifespans, otherwise it will affect the trajectory of the world.]

"I understand. Bad people won't get any money, and good people are limited to ten years each. That's a lot of money. I just want to make some money. If someone makes a big contribution, I can give more at my discretion." Xu Jiujun knew that affecting the fate of one person might not cause much consequence, but if it affected a group of people, then the low-probability event would become a high-probability event.

Good intentions may lead to bad consequences.

The next morning, Xu Jiujun went out early to consume spirit stones. If you ask where the spirit stones are consumed the fastest, it is naturally the casino.

Nine out of ten gambling cases are scams. If Xu Jiujun didn't come here with a purpose to consume spirit stones, he would never come here. The possibility of winning here by luck is not as high as waiting in front of the palace gate for the emperor to leave the palace, and then recognizing the emperor as his godfather.

In less than one morning, Xu Jiujun had spent a total of 500 million spirit stones, winning and losing, and obtained 500,000 attribute points. Then he went back and set up a stall at the door, with a sign next to it that read: Selling lifespan.

His manor was the most prosperous area in the imperial city, so naturally there were many wealthy people. After waiting for about an incense stick of time, a middle-aged man came over, took one look at Xu Jiujun's sign, and said with a smile, "Can you really sell your life?"

"How can I trust you?"

"If you don't believe it, you can bring it to me if you have a method to verify it." Xu Jiujun smiled without further explanation.

Because this kind of thing cannot be explained or understood, and it is not a pill, it cannot be eaten, so it can only be given to him by Xu Jiujun himself.

"My old man has a limited lifespan. The three imperial doctors unanimously said he can only live for another month at most. If you can help prolong his life, you can pay any amount of money you want." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, Xu Jiujun shook his head and said, "Is the old man a high-ranking official?"

"If he's a good official, I can help him prolong his life. If not, find another way. Don't waste our time."

"My name is Fang Wei, and my father is the current Prime Minister Fang Qiao. He is honest and upright. Who among the people of the Taxue Dynasty doesn't know him?"

At this point, Fang Wei sighed softly: "Alas, but people will eventually grow old. Now I am ninety-six years old, and I haven't retired from the court to rest."

Xu Jiujun nodded. He was still in the court at the age of ninety-six, and he had never heard any dissatisfaction from the people of the Taxue Dynasty. He must be a good official.

"Let's go, take me to see your grandfather." Xu Jiujun said.

Fang Wei extended his hand and gestured, "Please."

Fang Wei brought Xu Jiujun into the palace gate. He only needed to show the token to bring Xu Jiujun into the palace. From this point, it can be seen that Fang Qiao has considerable power.

After the two men walked away, the two soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but chat: "Oh my god, wasn't that the master behind Mr. Fang just now?"

"It was him. He broke into the palace alone that day, and I surrounded him. Later, Senior Sword Immortal appeared, and I treated him with great respect. In the end, he left the palace unharmed. The Emperor even kept this matter secret. Now, only those who met the master that day know about it."

Fang Wei took Xu Jiujun through many twists and turns and finally arrived at an area of ​​mansions. Looking around, there were at least a hundred mansions here.

"Although this is inside the palace, it's actually just the outer layer of the palace, where officials live." Fang Wei saw Xu Jiujun's confusion and took the initiative to say, "Actually, I don't have that much power. I just passed through the outer gate, so I can bring people in with an official token."

"To get in, you either need a token from the emperor or an imperial decree."

Xu Jiujun nodded, thinking that the last time I entered the palace, it wasn't so troublesome...
