"Thank you for your help, senior. I am grateful." Jiang Yuer was very sincere and humble.
It stands to reason that as a favored young generation of the Jiang family, she would not take the outside cultivators seriously, even if that cultivator was the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor. After all, there were many Hongmeng 1st-level cultivators like Chen Siqi in their Jiang family, although not countless. Moreover, she herself was only one step away from becoming the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor, and she might be promoted at any time.
"Hehe, it is the duty of cultivators like me to speak out when we see injustice. But having said that, Sister Yu'er, your gratitude cannot be expressed verbally only! If I hadn't helped you today, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for you to escape. In the face of such a great favor, how are you going to repay me?" Chen Siqi looked cunning.
"This... Senior, just speak up. If I can do it, I will do my best to satisfy you." Jiang Yuer was a little stunned. She didn't expect that Chen Siqi, a Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor, would take the initiative to ask her for benefits in public.
But soon, Jiang Yuer figured out the key. She remembered hearing Chen Siqi say that they, the brother and sister, did not come from a powerful family. The family had accumulated resources for trillions of years with great difficulty, but they had consumed them all at once in order to train them. They had even borrowed a lot of high-interest loans for this purpose. Now that Chen Siqi had been promoted again, the resources consumed must have been an astronomical figure. For them, who were not rich to begin with, this would be even worse, right?
As someone who came from a top-tier force, Jiang Yuer knew a lot of unknown darkness in the Qiongzu Universe. Without exception, those loan sharks had terrifying forces behind them to support them. Those who dared to lend money at high interest rates to the chosen ones like Chen Siqi and his sister were even more incredible. Since they dared to lend money, they were not afraid that you would default on the debt, even if your cultivation level was promoted to that of the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor.
If Chen Siqi and his sister cannot fill the hole in time, the hole will get bigger and bigger, and they will eventually become slaves of the lenders. Chen Siqi, who has been promoted to the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor, should be most eager to repay the usurious loan as soon as possible, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuer secretly sent a message to Chen Siqi: "Senior, I, Jiang Yuer, am not an ungrateful person. I am willing to give you all my savings over the years, but the premise is that you need to keep me safe before the Palace Master election is over. I can only pay you the money after the matter is completed."
Chen Siqi was immediately unhappy when she heard Jiang Yuer's words. Isn't this just a big deal for her? I helped you just now, but you don't plan to give me a penny?
Besides, Jiang Yuer has only lived for a few billion years. How much savings can she have?
Thinking of this, Chen Siqi looked a little unhappy, and said unhappily: "Are you sure? How much money can you pay, and you still want me to be your personal bodyguard?"
"I am not a talented woman, but all my savings over the years, converted into Chaos Stones, would probably be just over 700 trillion." Although Jiang Yuer said it lightly, she could not hide her pride. After all, she just turned 6.7 billion years old and already had a fortune of 300 trillion. Even in a powerful country like her, she was definitely a winner in life.
"Laugh...how much?" Chen Siqi, who had been planning to mock Jiang Yuer, was so shocked that her eyes widened.
"Haha, 700 trillion, senior, if you can help me, I will give you all the money without keeping a single cent. If you are worried, I can sign a Heavenly Dao Contract with you." Jiang Yuer smiled, as if she was talking about something very ordinary, without a trace of heartache.
In her mind, if she fails to be elected as the Lord of Lingxiao Palace this time, she will fall into Ji Haoxuan's clutches. What is the meaning of these worldly possessions then? Now the most important thing for her is to be elected as the Lord of Palace to escape the tragic fate she is about to face. Everything else is unimportant. And if she wants to be elected as the Lord of Palace, the first thing she needs to do is to protect herself during this election.
As for money, she can just earn more. Her life span is endless, and the thing she has the most is time. She can control her life in her own hands, and these material things will be earned back sooner or later.
Chen Siqi was stunned when she got Jiang Yuer's confirmation. 700 trillion, what is this? You have to know that Li Mu has collected so many followers from Lingxiao Universe, and the Chaos Stones he can call up now are only more than 200 trillion, which also includes the capital of Su Hong, the young master of Tianri Palace. Su Hong, who is also the leader of one of the six major forces, has lived for more than 8 billion years. His savings converted into Chaos Stones barely exceed 10 trillion. Jiang Yuer actually has at least 70 times more than Su Hong!
The most important thing is that these Chaos Stones can all belong to her, Chen Siqi, alone.
Chen Siqi's breathing couldn't help but become a little rapid, her heart was beating.
"No, business is more important. As long as the plan succeeds, the money will belong to my High Heaven Palace sooner or later." Chen Siqi thought, "But if I refuse such a large sum of money in front of me, won't it make people more suspicious? My personality is that of a poor idiot!"
"But if I accept this money, wouldn't it be a bit like abusing my power for personal gain? Will my brother blame me then? How can I, the deputy hall master in charge of recruiting surrenders, face my subordinates?"
At this time, Chen Siqi was extremely conflicted and was constantly struggling in her heart.
"Senior?" Jiang Yuer's voice sounded in Chen Siqi's mind again.
"Ah~?" Chen Siqi couldn't help but answer.
"Senior, there are not many cultivators in the Hongmeng Realm in Changfeng Domain now. Even if there are others, I believe they would not dare to attack me. The only one I need to guard against is Ji Haoxuan, and it is obvious that Ji Haoxuan is nothing compared to you. This money is easy for you to get. If you are concerned about the Ji family, to be honest, if I cannot become the master of Lingxiao Palace, there is no guarantee that the Jiang family will protect you, but today you have offended Ji Haoxuan to death. Based on my understanding of him, he will certainly not give up. Since it has come to this, why don't you give it a try? It would also be good to use the money to reduce the burden on your family." Jiang Yuer's words were sincere, but there was a hint of warning in her words. Her meaning was very clear. Only if Chen Siqi helped her become the master of Lingxiao Palace would there be a way to survive.
It was a bit unkind of her to say such things. After all, Chen Siqi had a conflict with Ji Haoxuan because she was helping her.
But she had no choice. 700 trillion Chaos Stones was not a small amount. She wanted to maximize the value of these Chaos Stones. Moreover, although her words were a bit unpleasant to the ear, they were indeed true.
However, Chen Siqi, who was blinded by money, had no way of understanding the other meaning in Jiang Yuer's words. After all, with Li Mu's support, she had never taken Ji Haoxuan or even the Ji family seriously.
At this moment, she had only one thought in her mind: "700 trillion is easy to get. Yes, I am poor and my family owes usury. It is not in line with my personality to not accept this money! I am not doing this to enrich myself, but to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Thinking of this, Chen Siqi immediately shouted, "Okay, I'll do this!"
The monks present were bewildered when they saw this. They looked at each other in bewilderment. What did "this vote is done" mean? What happened just now? What kind of agreement did Chen Siqi and Jiang Yuer reach?
