"Old man, I came to help you out of kindness, and this is how you treat me?”
"Tell me, how do you plan to compensate me?”
Jing Tian wouldn't have come to such a place if he wasn't afraid of affecting the business of Yuzhou City.
He did not expect to encounter an old Taoist priest who thought highly of himself.
If the old man Qing Hui's compensation was not sincere enough, this matter would not end well.
"That's, that's…"
The Sect Leader nodded repeatedly.
"But before that, can you remove the seal first so that we can deal with the rest?”
Jing Tian learned his lesson this time and shook his head.
"No, the compensation isn't enough. You guys can think of a way to get this thing yourself.”
The Qing Hui Sect Master was helpless. He had secretly tested the strength of the seal. Even if the five elders of Mount Shu worked together, they could not break the seal.
"Then…let's go to the main hall of Mount Shu first. We'll talk about it there. Leave the matters here to the disciples.”
Jing Tian nodded.
Then, he went to the main hall of Mount Shu with the Sect Master of Qing Hui.
Since it was Jing Tian's first time in Mount Shu, he could get a check-in reward for almost every small place.
These rewards were not bad. There were some top-notch cultivation techniques with high practicality.
Jing Tian didn't bother to remember, as long as it was enough.
He felt that even if he were to face the Demon Venerable head-on, he would not be afraid of him at all.
Since he didn't need to be afraid of a powerful character like the Demon Lord, he didn't need to worry about anything else.
The two of them arrived at the main hall of Mount Shu.
The Sect Master of Qing Hui invited Jing Tian to sit down.
"My young friend Jing Tian, please wait here for a moment.”
A moment later, the Qing Hui Sect Master appeared with a jade box.
Jing Tian recognized the jade box at a glance.
It really was the box that sealed the Evil Sword Immortal.
The old man was so calculative. He actually wanted to take the opportunity to make him work for him.
In addition to the jade box, the Qing Hui Sect Leader also took out an envelope.
He solemnly handed the envelope to Jing Tian.
"My young friend Jing Tian, I heard that you especially like some worldly things.”
"I hope you don't mind the things inside.”
"Thank you for your help to the people of Mount Shu, and forgive my junior brother for his rude behavior.”
Jing Tian didn't want to listen to such nonsense.
He opened the envelope.
It was the deed to a tavern in Yuzhou City.
Jing Tian also knew that this tavern was considered a second-rate tavern in Yuzhou City.
A second-rate tavern was not to be underestimated. In a large city like Yuzhou City, the daily revenue was several times higher than his pawnshop. Back then, they had lamented why they did not work in a tavern.
He did not expect the banker behind this tavern to be Mount Shu.
The Sect Leader of Qing Hui Sect saw Jing Tian's confusion and explained.
"Mount Shu is a place of pure cultivation. Us Daoists take justice as our duty. Even so, we are only mortal and cannot live without the constraints of the secular world. Therefore, we have some businesses to ensure that the inner sect disciples and elders of Mount Shu do not have to worry about their livelihood.”
Jing Tian understood.
The Taoist priests of Mount Shu did not engage in production and could not abstain from food, so they had to have external industries.
The tavern was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Most importantly, this was an endless source of money.
He didn't have to do anything. All he had to do was wait for the money every month.
Even if the business was bad one day and the tavern closed down, the location of the tavern was still very popular.
Having transmigrated from the real world, he knew the value of the downtown area all too well.
"My young friend Jing Tian, are you satisfied with this compensation?”
Jing Tian was very happy, but his expression remained unchanged.
"So-so."
The Sect Leader nodded.
"It's fine as long as you think it's okay, young friend Jing Tian. By the way, I invited you here because I have something to tell you.”
Jing Tian laughed in his heart. This old man has started.
"My young friend Jing Tian, you have awakened Fei Peng's divine power from your previous life, right? But judging from your aura, you should only be half awake.”
Jing Tian didn't deny or confirm, but gave an ambiguous answer.
Qing Huiquan took Jing Tian's silent agreement.
"My young friend Jing Tian, do you know that Divine General Fei Peng had an opponent in the past? He was the strongest expert in the Devil World today, Demon Lord Chong Lou. He has been waiting for you to come back for a thousand years, waiting to complete the agreement with Fei Peng. He wants to fight you!"
Jing Tian knew about this, of course.
He placed his hands behind his head and did not move.
"And then?"
The Sect Leader of Qing Hui noticed that Jing Tian's reaction was not right.
Shouldn't he be afraid? The strongest Demon Lord of the Demon Realm was coming to challenge him. Why wasn't he afraid at all?
"I mean…Jing Tian, aren't you afraid?”
Jing Tian shook his head.
"You didn't really find me, what are you afraid of?”
"But the Demon Lord is really very powerful. With your current strength, you're far from being his match.”
"Wait until he really comes."
"Not only will you lose your life, but all the citizens of Yuzhou City will suffer because of the Demon Lord's anger! Aren't you worried?"
"I'm not worried."
Sect Leader Qing Hui was at his wit's end.
Jing Tian didn't go according to his expectations at all.
He couldn't continue what he was thinking!
However, this matter concerned the common people of the world.
Sect Leader Qing Hui couldn't give up easily.
In the next half an hour, he tried seven or eight different ways to get Jing Tian to talk, trying to lead him in the direction he had expected.
However, Jing Tian didn't fall for it every time.
As an old Taoist priest who had lived for more than a hundred years, he felt like he was about to go crazy.
Why was Jing Tian like this after awakening?
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't dawdle. It's simple. If you want me to help you, you have to show the corresponding sincerity. I won't help you do things for free.”After such a long time, Jing Tian decided to tear the paper window.
The Sect Leader of Qing Hui was delighted when he heard that.
"Good, good. My young friend Jing Tian, why didn't you say so earlier?”
He pointed at the jade box on the table and said.
"My young friend Jing Tian, have you seen that jade box?”
"I need you to help me send it to the Heaven Realm. After it's done…I'll give you all of Mount Shu's properties in Yuzhou City. Mount Shu has three banks, two cloth stores, five taverns, and seven inns in Yuzhou City. More than half of our businesses are top-tier businesses in Yuzhou City.”
Jing Tian was quite tempted after hearing this.
Just the three banks alone meant a lot of wealth. There was also the cloth shop, tavern, and inn. If all these industries became his, wouldn't all his food, clothing, and accommodation be free in the future? Just thinking about it made him feel very comfortable. Moreover, the old man said that more than half of them were first-tier industries, which meant that they were top-tier industries. With so many industries added up, the exact value was really hard to estimate, but it was definitely a number that made him tempted.
However, he still had to bargain. Otherwise, there might be something fishy going on.
"Smash…Old man, you're giving me so much. Don't tell me you want me to do something dangerous?”
Sect Leader Qing Hui immediately shook his head and smiled apologetically.
"With Jing Tian's current strength, he won't be in any danger.”
Jing Tian sneered.
"Does that mean there's danger?"
(Please recommend me, thank you everyone)
