Redeeming Zhan Lexian is free, but redeeming Daweitian requires a price increase. After all the adjustments, it still remains the original price.
"My dear nephew, you are really good at doing business, but this deal is doomed to fail. Daweitian is a priceless treasure, and I cannot afford the price."
"Of course. A priceless treasure becomes a valuable one, so I am bound to lose money." Lu Bei nodded, first reported four sword intentions, and then asked for a large number of spirit crystals, Nine Revolutions Peiyuan Pills and other cultivation materials.
"No money?"
"What money?"
"The banknotes you earned at Qunxiangyuan."
Jing Ji was puzzled. Based on his understanding of Lu Bei, this fellow seemed to be particularly obsessed with worldly currency. Sometimes, for the sake of fifty taels of silver, he would even sacrifice the dignity of a cultivator.
twice!
Taking the case of the West Palace this time as an example, it was the West Palace lineage that asked for trouble. They did not have the strength to fight against a strong opponent with an egg. However, Lu Bei stirred up trouble and made such a big fuss. He must have coveted the assets of the West Palace and was ready to make a fortune.
"Look at my brain, I almost forgot about it."
Lu Bei slapped his head and said gratefully, "Thank you, Elder Jing, for your reminder. I'll add a few hundred million silver notes."
Jing Ji said nothing and slapped himself on the mouth.
The two men agreed on a price and agreed on a time to pay. Based on the principle that the customer is the supreme being, Lu Bei released Zhan Lexian first.
Before he could make a move, Jing Ji raised his hand to stop him, frowned and asked: "My dear nephew, there is a question that has troubled me for a long time. Before I release Elder Zhan, I need to ask clearly."
"Elder Jing, just be frank. What's the relationship between us? You and my grandfather are not as close as I am to you!"
"That's not necessary. It's better for you to kiss him more."
Jing Ji decisively refused, not giving Lu Bei any chance to get away with it, and asked, "Regarding the Great Mighty Heaven... and the Great Power Heaven, how did my nephew manage to take possession of these two Nine Swords?"
"Ah, this..."
Lu Bei pondered for a moment, and said in confusion: "I am not very clear about the specific situation. Maybe because I am young and have potential, the two nine swords think that I will achieve greater success in the future, so they followed me."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Jing Ji listened and cursed his short-sighted colleagues on the mountain. Even the Nine Swords knew that Lu Bei was worth investing in, but they were a bunch of self-righteous guys who had to put on airs.
Of course, Jing Ji didn't believe this statement about young people having potential. He knew that Lu Bei was not telling the truth, so he asked, "What's wrong with Lin Buyan? What means did he use to take Dashitian back from you?"
Lu Bei's face flashed with embarrassment, and he quickly shook his head: "I don't know, I don't know, I don't understand, the surnamed Lin is too bad, Dashitian has been in his hands for a hundred years, and the edge of the sword is almost blunt... The dog licker will not die well, give me another chance, Dashitian has tasted my benefits, and he will definitely not go back to me."
Jing Ji was confused when he heard this. It was normal for the Nine Swords to lick the Nine Swords. Not only Lin Buyan, but everyone else licked them too. But to lick the Nine Swords until they were found again...
The guy named Lin is really good at it.
Lu Bei was vague in his words, and Jing Ji thought about it and roughly understood the reason.
Lin Buyan has held Dashitian for many years. Lu Bei can occupy it for a while but cannot own it for a long time. This statement also verifies what Lin Buyan said before.
Jing Ji had never seen this before, and decided to go back to other elders to research it.
The black and white door was blurry, and Zhan Lexian walked out with disheveled hair. Seeing Jing Ji smiling, his face turned pale and he closed his eyes, pretending to ignore it.
On Tianjian Peak, people's hearts were divided, and this was vividly displayed at this moment.
Lu Bei raised his hand and pushed, sending Dawei Tian in front of Zhan Lexian. The latter grasped the hilt of the sword and brushed it lightly with his palm, causing the sword to vibrate and resonate, and for a moment he burst into tears.
Come back, everything is over.
Holding the Great Power in his hand, Zhan Lexian couldn't help but feel eager to try. He had tolerated Lu Bei for a long time and felt that the advantage was back on his side. At this moment, he might be able to avenge his previous defeat by taking the lead.
whoosh!
Lu Bei took a step forward and pushed Jing Ji forward: "Elder Jing, both the man and the sword are given to you. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
"Wait a moment!"
Zhan Lexian shouted angrily, his long hair fluttering wildly, and asked sternly: "Where is Hongqu? Where did you hide my daughter?"
"Oh, that's right. I almost took Senior Sister Zhan away."
Lu Bei said that he was forgetful and was getting worse. He explained, "Elder Zhan, please don't misunderstand. I just discussed some shady deals with Elder Jing, so I asked Senior Sister Zhan to temporarily avoid it. It is definitely not that I am deliberately holding her back."
After saying that, he raised his hand, opened the black and white portal, and released Zhan Hongqu from the small dark room.
After finishing these, Lu Bei turned around and left, determined not to give Zhan Lexian a chance to lose his temper.
"Father!"
Zhan Lexian saw the light of day again, and Zhan Hongqu was overjoyed. He threw himself into his arms. The lingering cloud dissipated, and he became much more energetic.
Lu Bei released the person as agreed, and it was time for her to prepare her sword intent.
This kid actually has some character. It's time to prepare his sword intent!
Sure enough, although this kid is extremely daring, he still knows clearly what he can and cannot do.
The three of them had their own thoughts. Zhan Lexian patted his daughter's shoulder and looked at Jing Ji: "Elder Jing, what secret things did you talk about with him?"
"Elder Zhan actually believed that man's words."
Jing Ji sneered, waved his hand to split the void, and made a gesture of invitation: "Let's go back to Tianjian Peak first. Elder Zhan has brought shame to Huangji Sect this time. In order to redeem you, Jing paid a huge price. Let's go back and talk slowly!"
Zhan Lexian's face darkened, he tightened the Great Power in his hand, and looked down at Zhan Hongqu: "Father has some trivial matters to deal with, you go to Lingxiao Sword Sect, Bai Jin is a good kid, challenge her to a sword fight, father will pick you up in two days."
"Father..."
"not good!"
Zhan Lexian's expression suddenly changed, and he looked ferocious: "That kid walked too fast, and my sword is still in his hand."
"…" x2
…
"Fortunately, I left quickly. Otherwise, I would have lost the elder's sword. This deal would have been a real loss for my grandfather."
In front of Changming Mansion, Lu Bei expressed his satisfaction to the young talents who came to give him gifts, then climbed over the wall into the courtyard and walked towards the banquet hall.
Zhu Heng left without saying goodbye, he must have taken advantage of the situation to gain a lot of benefits. Was it him or the Huangji Sect? Given the national conditions of the Wu Zhou Dynasty, it should be both.
Lu Bei couldn't get the Huangji Sect's share, but it would be a bit unreasonable not to give him some of Zhu Heng's share.
The banquet hall was empty. Lu Bei spread out his spiritual sense and found the master and servant in the study. After asking them a few questions, he learned that Zhu Heng and Zhu Wenlan had already left. He immediately rolled his eyes.
None of these old guys are good. No matter whether it is the Tianjian Sect or the Huangji Sect, they will all be finished sooner or later.
"Do you have something to do with the Great Elder?" Zhu Qilan asked with a frown.
"Just now in Qunxiangyuan, he left on the pretext of going to the bathroom, and the expenses were charged to me, a full fifty taels. I can't just let this go like this." Lu Bei snorted.
Nonsense!
Zhu Qilan lowered his head to review official business and asked Butler Yu to take the disturbing guy out and stop him from making noise here.
Watching the two men leave, she couldn't help but think of what Zhu Wenlan had told her.
Not much to say, just personal experience.
For specific characters, please refer to Zhu Yi. Let Zhu Qilan keep a close eye on him to prevent Lu Bei from having affairs outside and getting into trouble for love affairs.
Zhu Qilan nodded in agreement to this advice, saying that he would keep a close watch on the child, but he did not agree with it in his heart.
She believed her own eyes. With Lu Bei's foul mouth, he was definitely single based on his own strength. If it weren't for chance, the two of them would have been inseparable in their dual cultivation, and she would have been just a passerby until now.
Moreover, she had great confidence in Lu Bei in terms of not being interested in women.
How is it possible that he is having affairs with other girls outside
Boo~~
In the corner, Lu Bei cornered Housekeeper Yu so that she had no room to retreat. After kissing her on the face, he pointed at his own face.
“Hehehe…”
Housekeeper Yu blushed and pushed Lu Bei a few times. She heard footsteps approaching from the direction of the corridor, closed her eyes, moved forward with her lips rubbed with red rouge, then turned around and walked away in small steps.
Lu Bei looked down at the collar and thought to himself that it was cute. He thought...
No, he doesn't want to.
After taking a shower in the swimming pool, Lu Bei changed his clothes, punched in, and without mentioning the matter of dual cultivation, he went straight back to Ningzhou Dongwang County.
…
Xuanyinsi, a temporary government office.
Lu Bei unfolded the Shuangxuan treasure map in the dungeon and interrogated the serious criminal Zhu Jingting.
Without Zhan Lexian, he has the most experience. Jing Ji promised that Tianjian Sect would not interfere in the affairs of West Palace. It seems that West Palace will not be able to get support from Tianjian Sect and will come to ask for peace soon.
There is not much time left, so just brush as much as you can.
"I don't know how the royal family will handle this. I hope they won't confiscate the property, otherwise it will all go to Quewu."
Lu Bei prayed for the West Palace. The people who benefited from the empire he had built were the Purple Guards of Xuanyin Division in Xianzhou. Whenever he thought about this, he felt more uncomfortable than killing him.
At the same time, Xuanwei Yutao was ordered to arrive at Dongwang County. Hu San, with gauze wrapped around his head and crutches, came to meet him in person despite his serious injuries.
Unlike the last time when he made a big fanfare, Yu Tao was very low-key this time. As soon as he saw Fox Three's injuries, he knew he could make a lot of money from this trip.
"Greetings, Master Yu."
"You are too polite, Hu Ziwei. We are all colleagues. How can you call me a master?"
Yu Tao waved his hands repeatedly, and the two exchanged a few words of greeting before immediately entering into the official and impartial corruption mode.
"Lu Ziwei went to Xianzhou. Although it was the Western Palace that attempted the assassination first, crossing the border is against the rules after all. If the Western Palace brings up this matter..."
"No, my second brother covered his face, and the mysterious person who went to Xianzhou was not him."
Fox Three said calmly: "The West Palace will definitely not believe it if I tell you this. It was purely because my second brother was lucky that he caught a hooded thief at the border of Ningzhou, and that’s how he saved everyone in the West Palace. Not only is he not at fault, he’s also a meritorious service!"
"So that's how it is. Lu Ziwei has made outstanding contributions. I will report this to His Majesty. The Emperor will be very pleased and will certainly reward him generously."
Yu Tao smiled and nodded, then asked again, "How is the King of the West? Is he okay with any missing arms or legs?"
"Don't worry, Lord Yu. My two brothers respect the West King's family very much. The West King eats well and sleeps well, and the princess is not worn out either."
"That's good. Your Majesty sent me here to..."
