"I can give you what you want. Your life will be mine from now on. You can be a slave of the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop. When I need you, you can fight for it. If you are willing, sign this contract..."
Zhang Fan looked at Wu Gang and quickly remembered that there was something in his warehouse that he really needed, the Axe of Creation.
This thing should be suitable for Wu Gang.
"Hey, how can you stop me from chopping down that osmanthus tree? Can you tell me a way?"
Wu Gang was a little excited. He didn't expect that the owner of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth really had a way. But after thinking about it, he felt that there seemed to be no way. Could he stop cutting down the osmanthus tree?
He was a little bit unconvinced, so he wanted to ask Zhang Fan. After all, this was related to his life for the next thousands of years!
"Sign the contract. After you sign it, I will make arrangements for you!"
Zhang Fan looked at the time. It was almost two o'clock. He didn't want to say more to Wu Gang. If he was willing, he could sign the contract. If not, he would go back to sleep. Anyway, here, he had the final say.
“This, this…”
Wu Gang hesitated and looked around, trying to see something different, but after looking around, he could tell that the owner of the Pawnshop was a little impatient.
If we delay any further, I’m afraid we won’t be able to sign the contract.
"I'll sign!"
Finally, Wu Gang gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble. For him, he had already reached a dead end. What else could he do?
The worst that can happen is he's just like this now.
Life is worse than death!
A parchment contract was brought to Wu Gang by Yin Rourou. He glanced at it and could not hide his shock and curiosity.
The contract guaranteed that his current situation could be changed so that he wouldn't have to chop down the sacred tree anymore, and that they were willing to lend him an axe. After his death or betrayal of the contract, the axe would be taken back by the Heavenly Pawn Shop, and his life might even be wiped out!
And he had to become a slave of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, serving the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth. As long as the pawnshop summoned him, he would do it even if it cost him his life.
Wu Gang feels that this is something that both parties are willing to do, but what will happen if Tiandi Pawnshop cannot do it and cannot change its current situation?
"After signing the contract, what if you can't do it? If I can't do it, my life will be threatened, but if you can't do it, what about the conditions agreed in the contract?"
"No, Tiandi Pawnshop will not sign a contract that cannot be fulfilled. If you have any doubts, you don't have to sign it!"
Zhang Fan's words left Wu Gang speechless. It didn't matter whether he believed it or not, because he had no other way out. As long as someone was willing to give him a little hope, he would give it a try.
So he didn't hesitate and signed the contract directly, but his heart became numb. The worst case scenario was just like this. Even if he died, it would probably be a relief!
When Wu Gang looked up again, an axe appeared in front of him. The axe looked simple and ancient, with a layer of golden light on it, and three words on it.
Axe of Creation!
"Take this axe and do what you want to do. Didn't the Jade Emperor issue an order that as long as you cut off the sacred osmanthus, you will be free? Remember the contract you signed today. You are a slave of the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth..."
The Axe of Creation was given to Wu Gang. When he woke up under the sacred tree, he was still in a daze?
If he hadn't touched a golden axe when he stood up, he would have thought he had just had a dream.
"The Axe of Creation? The Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, this is all true, really?"
After picking up the Axe of Creation, Wu Gang was overjoyed. Holding the axe in his hand, he looked up at the 500-foot-tall divine osmanthus tree, his eyes red.
He had been chopping down the sacred osmanthus tree for thousands of years, consuming countless efforts, but he still could not chop it down. He drew his sword countless times, but in the end, it was all in vain!
Thinking of this, Wu Gang raised the Axe in his hand and chopped hard at the trunk of the sacred osmanthus tree. The axe chopped down with a whistling sound, and the axe was like hitting tofu.
In an instant, the axe cut off one-third of the trunk of the sacred osmanthus tree, causing the branches of the sacred osmanthus tree to shake violently.
Wu Gang, who was chopping trees, was stunned and shocked.
Because he clearly remembered that he had been chopping the sacred laurel for thousands of years, and every time he chopped the sacred laurel, the trunk would quickly recover. So no matter how many years he chopped the sacred laurel, he could not cut it down.
This is the ultimate reason for Wu Gang’s extreme despair.
However, just now, he took the Axe of Creation and chopped off one third of the trunk of the Divine Osmanthus with one axe. Even though the branches of the Divine Osmanthus were shaking violently and trying desperately to recover from the injuries, the recovery speed was too slow.
Wu Gang used the power of thunder and struck with the second and third swords!
When his third strike of the sword came down, the entire five hundred-foot-tall divine osmanthus tree that covered the sky and the sun collapsed with a loud bang, causing the ground outside the Guanghan Palace to even shake violently. At this time, the Jade Emperor was drinking in the Lingxiao Palace.
Suddenly, it was as if there was an earthquake. The fruits on the table fell to the ground, and the tables and chairs were all tilted to this and that. The fairies and palace maids who were serving him on the side could not stand steadily and their faces changed drastically. The Jade Emperor was so frightened that he trembled and went under the big table in the Lingxiao Palace to give orders.
"Quick, go check, what happened? Is the palace going to collapse?"
The heavenly soldiers and generals at the South Gate of Heaven also felt the vibration in the Heavenly Palace. They were terrified at this point and looked around to find the cause of the vibration. Was it that some god was causing trouble again?
However, there is a protective shield above the Heavenly Palace, so even if someone from the outside attacks, it won't make such a big noise.
The most likely possibility is that something earth-shattering happened in heaven.
Soon, the news that Wu Gang had cut off the sacred osmanthus tree reached the ears of the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor, who had just been helped up, was so shocked that he was stunned and the cup in his hand almost fell to the ground again.
"The sacred osmanthus tree was cut off by Wu Gang? How is this possible? Quick, call Wu Gang up here..."
The Jade Emperor seemed to not believe his ears, and hurriedly ordered Wu Gang to come and question him. However, just as the celestial general who announced the decree left, Taibai Jinxing arrived in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Court is overjoyed..."
Taibai Jinxing's nonsensical words of congratulations made the Jade Emperor, who was already a little embarrassed, a little confused for a moment.
Ever since the Heavenly Court was suppressed by the Buddha, the Jade Emperor has been very unhappy. He really can't think of anything worth celebrating about in the Heavenly Court now.
But Taibai Jinxing had a head of gray beard and a sweet smile on his face, and he didn't seem to be lying to him, which made him very confused.
"My dear, where does this joy in heaven come from?"
The Jade Emperor couldn't help but ask Taibai Jinxing!
