Chapter 42 Temporary Calm



Victor couldn't get anything out of him, and Chi Sui insisted that she was with Long Xi the whole night.

Finally, under the gaze of the gentry and businessmen, he had to put the matter aside for the time being.

"Let's leave it at that for now. We can't determine the cause of Will's death until we find Andrew."

Victor was about to leave after saying that. Chi Sui raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Victor."

Victor frowned and turned around, only to see Chi Sui spreading his hands: "You slandered me before and fed my guards the potion."

"After the evidence proves that this matter has nothing to do with me, then, should you compensate me?"

Victor sneered: "What does this mean, Baroness?"

Chi Sui smiled and said, "It means I want money."

Under the strange looks of the businessmen, Chi Sui tilted his head and said, "You may think I'm tacky, but this is what you deserve after slandering me."

Victor looked at Chi Sui for a long time and suddenly smiled.

He finally understood why that idiot Weier was so obsessed with killing Chi Sui.

Because Chi Sui is really not good enough.

In her, he did not see the fear of the Adventurer's Guild that was ingrained in the bones of ordinary lords.

"You dare to take my money?"

Victor suddenly laughed. He was becoming more and more interested in Chi Sui. Haha, he really hoped she could die immediately.

"Why don't you dare?"

Chi Sui continued to spread his hands: "Is Mr. Victor some kind of madman who kills people without reason?"

Ole's eyelids twitched wildly.

Victor looked at Chi Sui deeply and said, "Okay, how much compensation do you want?"

Chi Sui: "Five thousand gold coins."

"hiss……"

Everyone in the church gasped, and even the Holy Father, who had been as steady as an old dog, muttered something while holding the cross.

Surprisingly, Victor said nothing. He smiled at Chi Sui, a smile that was obviously malicious. "Well, it's my gift to my neighbor."

"Tomorrow afternoon, I will have the money delivered to your castle."

Chi Sui smiled and pinched the hem of her skirt, bowing to Victor like a lady: "Okay, Mr. Victor."

Victor left.

His last words nearly made Ole faint.

Chi Sui smiled the whole time, looked at everyone in the church, exchanged greetings with them for a moment, then got on the carriage, took Long Xi with him, and headed for the castle.

As soon as Long Xi entered the carriage, he spread his hands to Chi Sui and said, "The fee for last night was 100 grams of gold, and the fee for the loss of reputation was 100 grams, so the total is 200 grams."

Without saying a word, Chi Sui exchanged gold from the system mall and stuffed it into Long Xi's hand.

Seeing gold appear out of thin air in Chi Sui's hand, Long Xi did not look confused or interested at all.

On the contrary, he chuckled when he saw Chi Sui giving the gold readily.

It's just that he was born fierce and fierce, and even a simple chuckle exuded a sense of threat.

"For the sake of multiple transactions."

Long Xi played with the gold in his hand, feeling very happy: "Just a reminder."

"A magician who possesses dark magic is no ordinary person."

Chi Sui looked up. She really knew very little about dark magicians. "Can you tell me about it?"

Long Xi spread his hands: "Ten grams of gold, I will explain it to you in detail."

Chi Sui looked away, thinking that he should ask Ole or Elxian. If he couldn't get anything out of them, he could then look for Long Xi.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

Chi Sui changed the subject expressionlessly.

Long Xi withdrew his hand with a little disappointment and continued to play with the gold.

"I have a job here, would you like to take it?"

Long Xi raised his eyelids: "Give gold?"

Chi Sui nodded: "Gold or gold coins are fine."

She patted her chest and said, "I just extorted a huge sum of money. I'm rich now."

"laugh…"

The Demon King scoffed and leaned back against the carriage, shifting his stance. "Tell me, what do you want me to do? The rules still apply. I will not participate in the struggles of human forces."

Chi Sui smiled sincerely: "I want to build a hotel and rebuild my castle."

The demon king said nothing, looking uninterested.

"Master Demon, I want to build a complete and convenient water pumping system and I need your help."

Long Xi paused playing with the gold, the corners of his mouth curled up, and the words "money scam" were written on his face.

"Okay, three kilograms of gold. I'll take care of the pumping systems for the castle and the hotel."

Chi Sui: ... "How much?"

Long Xi straightened up, the cinnabar mole at the corner of his eye and his eyes flashed with desire for gold: "Three kilograms of gold, I'll take care of it all."

Chi Sui covered his head, struggled for a moment, and began to bargain: "Less, please. I still need to hire craftsmen, spend money on materials, and finally renovate it..."

Chi Sui counted his fingers and muttered to himself, his face wrinkled like a bitter gourd.

The treacherous dragon seemed to realize that his price was a little high. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll pay for the craftsmanship."

Chi Sui squinted at him and said, "Less."

Long Xi frowned: "I don't want to do this business anymore."

"Okay! It's settled!"

Chi Sui slapped the wall of the car and roared with all his might.

Long Xi sneered, which was considered as an agreement.

Long Xi returned to the castle to get the carriage, and left with Prime Minister Turtle and the witch.

Before they left, Chi Sui grabbed Prime Minister Turtle, took out the white feather that Long Xi had given him as a gift, and asked quietly, "Prime Minister Turtle, what special treasure is this?"

Prime Minister Turtle squinted at Chi Sui and said, "Because the invitation you gave me said Your Highness doesn't need to bring any gifts, Your Highness just found a feather and brought it here."

"He said that when the time comes, the witch and I will both give gifts, and it would be detrimental to his image if he just stood there."
