Jiang Ningshuang, Chen Bing and Chen Xue did not speak, and all three pairs of pretty eyes looked at Ye Chen.
They knew that when they were away from home, everything depended on Ye Chen.
Smart women know not to act on their own, especially in this unfamiliar and dangerous environment. Fortunately, Jiang Ningshuang and the other two women are very smart.
"Can't."
Ye Chen refused decisively.
"You know, if you don't take me in, I might be killed tonight, or tied to some man's bed..."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Ye Chen said lightly: "Please leave immediately, otherwise I will not be polite."
"Sir Ye Chen, are you really that cruel? I just lost my brother and am now alone and helpless. Can't you help me?"
"Don't blackmail me with morality. I have no morals. If you don't leave within three breaths, I will attack you."
Ye Chen's face darkened and his voice became cold.
Seeing Ye Chen was unmoved, Alice gritted her teeth, took out a storage ring and said, "I can share the rent with you. I just heard that you gave that person 2,000 Fang Tian Yuan Qi. Can I share half of it?"
"three…"
Ye Chen said lightly.
Alice, still unwilling to give up, took out another storage ring and said, "I'll pay all the rent. Here are 2,000 cubic meters of Tianyuan Qi. You can live here for free. How about it?"
"two…"
Ye Chen's tone was already a little impatient.
However, Alice didn't seem to want to give up. She took out the last ring in her hand and said, "This contains all my savings. Five thousand Fang Tianyuan Qi. I'll give it all to you. Is that okay?"
"one!!"
Ye Chen clenched his palms slightly, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
A flash of panic appeared in Alice's beautiful emerald eyes. She could feel that Ye Chen was definitely not joking. If she didn't leave immediately, she would definitely die under Ye Chen's fist.
However, if she left now, in this chaotic place, the only thing waiting for her would be death, or she would be constantly abused and become a tool for someone to vent their anger and reproduce.
Just before Ye Chen was about to make his move, Alice's eyes flashed, as if she had made up her mind. She dug her fingers into the ravine on her chest, took out a jade pendant, and said, "I am willing to use a magical power passed down from my ancestors as a bargaining chip to stay..."
"Magic power?"
Ye Chen was stunned.
He looked at the white woman in front of him with suspicion, as if trying to confirm whether she was lying.
"Yes, it is indeed a magical power, and it will definitely be of great help to you!"
As she spoke, Alice took off the jade pendant that was originally hanging on her slender white neck and handed it to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen grabbed the jade pendant from the air, and it was still warm in his hand.
When spiritual power was injected, Ye Chen immediately sensed that a large amount of information was injected into it.
"Xuan Cang Treasure Book!"
Ye Chen murmured in his heart, his eyes showing surprise and doubt.
Judging from this information, this is indeed a very rare method of tempering the divine body.
As mentioned above, this magical skill can help cultivators temper their divine bodies extremely quickly. If it is assisted by natural treasures, the effect will be even better.
However, this method of tempering the divine body is currently incomplete, only a part of it is available.
After feeling this information, Ye Chen looked at Alice again.
Alice said: "Sir Ye Chen, you should know that I didn't lie to you, right?"
"You did not lie to me, but this technique is incomplete." Ye Chen said.
"The rest is in my memory."
Alice pointed to her head and said, "After all, it is an ancestral technique, so naturally we won't reveal all the information about it to the outside world. This is our family's rule, and I hope Mr. Ye Chen can understand.
But as long as you take me in, I will definitely write down this technique every day and give it all to you."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. The woman in front of him was quite clever.
He was worried that he would be abandoned after serving his purpose, so he thought of using a magical skill to keep himself hanging.
If what he expected was correct, even if he let this woman live in, she would not write out all the skills so quickly, but would write them bit by bit slowly like squeezing toothpaste.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen said: "I will only give you seven days. If you can't write out this technique completely within seven days, I will still kick you out."
"Sir Ye Chen, you can't be so heartless. This technique is very long. It will take at least half a year to memorize it all... Please give me some more time." Alice said earnestly.
"Just seven days."
Ye Chen decisively refused and said indifferently: "If you can't write it, then leave now."
As he said this, he was about to return the jade pendant to Alice.
"Okay, seven days is seven days, but after I hand over the complete technique to you, please keep your promise and let me stay by your side."
"You have no right to bargain with me."
Alice took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Then please give me my brother's belongings. I think they should be returned to their original owners. You won't refuse this, right?"
"Those things don't belong to you now. They are all my spoils. Don't you understand that?"
Ye Chen looked into Alice's beautiful emerald eyes and said coldly: "Either accept my conditions or leave now."
Alice was silent for a moment, as if she was struggling.
But now she had no choice but to trust the other party's character and take a gamble. Otherwise, she would never be able to spend the night safely.
"Okay, Mr. Ye Chen, I agree."
Ye Chen seemed to have known that she would agree. He pointed to the servant's room next to the gate and said, "You will sleep there from now on. You can sweep up the fallen leaves and clean the room."
"Do you treat me like a maid?"
Alice's pretty face flushed with anger, and her green eyes looked at the other person angrily.
She was a princess of the empire, and she lived a life of luxury, with a large group of servants serving her.
She never thought that she would become someone else's maid now. This was a great shame and humiliation for her.
"So are you going to do it?"
Ye Chen looked at her and asked directly.
Alice gritted her teeth until they made a sound, and after a long while she nodded and said, "Do it."
"Just do it well, don't give me the cold shoulder, and greet me with a smile when you see me next time, do you hear me?"
"Yes... Respected Lord Ye Chen."
Alice took a few deep breaths and almost fainted with anger, but she still had to endure it.
In order to find the elixir that can heal her father in this upper realm, she must endure...
However, if she couldn't get her brother's ring back, it would be useless even if she found a panacea.
Thinking of this, Alice pleaded again: "Sir Ye Chen, I beg you to return my brother's relics to me, even if it's only half..."
