When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 176 News of 8 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals

Don't give me that sour look. Not to mention that my cultivation level is a whole level higher than yours, right now, I'm helping you, so I'm your benefactor.

Besides, don't think I'm like those paper-thin immortal kings outside. Even if we only rely on our family's resources and magical treasures, you might not be able to beat me in a real fight.

As Murong Yu spoke, Zhu Chongjiu's expression gradually softened, but he still said in a somewhat cold tone, "President Murong, let's talk business first!"

Hmph, 1.5 million mid-grade immortal crystals. I originally wanted 1 million, but seeing your terrible attitude, I'll add another 500,000.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu's indifferent face immediately turned into a bitter expression.

He then pleaded poverty to Murong Yu, saying, "I just spent 1.5 million to buy your boat tickets, where am I going to get another 1.5 million?"

Cheaper, that's all.

Tch, you man over there, don't forget, we've already learned so much about this, do you think we don't know how much tribute the Many-Eyed Immortal King took back to the Immortal Lord's Palace to report?

I've already given you 1.5 million. If you want to negotiate further, then it'll be 2 million.

Take the message if you want, or don't if you don't.

Anyway, it's not my death that matters if you die.

Upon seeing Murong Yu, who had regained her true nature, Zhu Chongjiu disregarded his pride. Since they were all the same age, he began to plead and cry to Murong Yu, pouring out his bitterness and tears.

What do you mean by having many brothers in the family? There's no way to make money in the first place, and they're all big eaters.

He was all alone and helpless. Murong Xiaoxian was a beautiful and kind-hearted woman, as beautiful as a fairy, with a beauty that could shame the moon and make the fish sink and the geese fall from the sky...

Anyway, for the sake of money, Zhu Chongjiu praised everything he could.

After all, that's no small amount of money.

Finally, amidst Murong Xue's giggles as Zhu Chongjiu praised her, after the transaction was completed for 800,000 mid-grade immortal crystals, Murong Yu became serious and said to her, "Actually, what you did was not discovered by our Nine Heavens Chamber of Commerce."

Of course, both Immortal Lord Zi Lei and Immortal Lord Zhu Rong had previously asked my Nine Heavens Chamber of Commerce to investigate for them.

However, you did it so secretly that we were unable to find out anything.

Finally, it was Immortal Lord Zi Lei who pleaded with his ancestor, Immortal Emperor Ying Lei, saying that in order to trace your group back to your origins, Immortal Emperor Ying Lei had not hesitated to burn his own immortal spirit and expend 100,000 years of cultivation power.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu asked Murong Yu with some alarm, "So, the Purple Thunder Immortal Lord already knows my location?"

Yes, and it was Emperor Ying Lei himself who gave the order to bring you all back, dead or alive.

Oh, I forgot something.

The Thunder Immortal Emperor also instructed the Purple Thunder Immortal Lord to notify the Zhu Rong Immortal Lord to come and capture you.

In other words, you, a mere celestial general, are now being captured by two celestial lords.

Even if I die, it will be worth it!

After saying that, Murong Yu patted Zhu Chongjiu's shoulder meaningfully.

Seeing Zhu Chongjiu standing there stunned for a long time, Murong Yu comforted him, "It's no use being afraid. You still have to pay, even if you're scared."

I've told you everything.

Besides, you're about to die, so there's no use keeping the money. Why don't you give it all to me and I'll save it for you?

If you really do survive, come back to me to collect it later.

Don't doubt the authenticity of our Nine Heavens Chamber of Commerce's tokens; they are absolutely safe and reliable. You'll even get some interest! Why not?

Zhu Chongjiu peeled the arm that was draped over his shoulder from Murong Yu's arm, took out 800,000 mid-grade immortal crystals from his storage ring, and smiled calmly after seeing them in her hand; "What are you afraid of? From the day we started this, I thought of the worst possible consequences."

When a person dies, the bird faces upwards; if they don't die, they'll live for ten thousand years!

"Just do it! I have so many brothers with me."

After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu cupped his hands to Murong Yu and thanked her, saying, "Thank you for telling me the news. If I really survive this ordeal, I'll treat you to a drink."

You know, there aren't many people who can drink with me.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu walked out of the hall.

Murong Yu was thrilled by Zhu Chongjiu's words. Looking up, she saw that Zhu Chongjiu was almost at the gate.

Murong Yu hurriedly shouted, "Hey, that man, as long as you survive for a hundred years, once the Void Ship appears, you will be able to escape from this desperate situation."

"Since you're going to buy me a drink, I'll give you some free news. The people of Immortal Lord Zi Lei and Immortal Lord Zhu Rong have already met, and they'll be able to reach the Qingfeng World in about three months."

As Murong Yu finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu had already walked out the door.

Without saying anything or turning around, he simply raised his arm, waved to Murong Yu, and then disappeared from sight.

Murong Yu watched the disappearing figure in the main hall, thinking to herself, "Humans?"

This is unlike any human I've ever seen!

It's really... kind of cute!

Murong Yu recalled what had just happened: Zhu Chongjiu hugging her legs and praising how slender, straight, and evenly shaped they were!

Murong Yu's face instantly turned red. She glanced around and thankfully had sent everyone away at the beginning. Otherwise, if others had seen this, it would have been incredibly embarrassing. I'm just a virgin...!

If Zhu Chongjiu were to witness this scene, he would surely be puzzled by this woman's thoughts. Instead of considering how troublesome it would be for her if someone with ulterior motives found out about what had just happened—after all, she had secretly sold information to a human, and one that a Celestial Emperor had specifically requested to capture—she was actually thinking about…!

Just as Murong Yu was unaware that she was experiencing romantic feelings, and Zhu Chongjiu walked out of the main hall to meet the children, a futon floated in the distant void of the universe.

A child who looked to be only about ten years old sat on the futon, with his eyes slightly closed.

Kneeling before the child was none other than the Thunder Immortal Emperor.

Master, it seems I have found the trace of the human you were looking for.

Oh? You tell us!

At this moment, the person, who looked like a child but spoke in a voice like an old man, asked the Immortal Emperor Ying Lei.

Upon hearing his master's words, Immortal Emperor Ying Lei recounted the entire story.

Upon hearing this, the child opened his eyes, which had been slightly closed.

The instant their eyes opened, two bolts of lightning, each ten thousand feet long and radiating an intense light that was impossible to look directly at, pierced through the void of the universe and flew into the distance.

A moment later, a deafening boom resounded, followed by a string of curses echoing through the void between the two.

Hey Thor, don't be so stingy. What's wrong with listening to it?

Are you really afraid that a mere human kid could turn the world upside down for you?

Upon hearing this voice, the master of the Thunder Immortal Emperor, the child whom that person called the Thunder God, replied, "Nine Heavens, manage your merchant guild well and make your money."

Since you've maintained your neutrality all these years, I advise you to mind your own business. Otherwise, a few of us old guys will team up and give you a good beating.

Alright, alright, I haven't been active for hundreds of thousands of years, it wouldn't hurt for you guys to loosen up my muscles.

After saying this, the man whom Thor called Nine Heavens fell silent.

Upon seeing this scene, Immortal Emperor Ying Lei spoke up, "Master, these Nine Heavens Immortal Venerables are secretly helping those Great Emperors of the Human Race. Are you and those other Great Emperors just going to do nothing about it?"

As soon as Immortal Emperor Ying Lei finished speaking, he saw the Thunder God glance at him, and Immortal Emperor Ying Lei immediately trembled all over, his clothes were soaked, and his face was full of pain.

Humanity still has its reasons for existing. Some things are beyond your control, understand?

Seeing that the Thunder God nodded hurriedly upon hearing his words, the Thunder God casually waved his sleeve at him.

Looking at the Thunder Immortal Emperor at this moment, it was as if he had been granted a pardon. Even though he was slumped on the ground, he still managed to say to the Thunder God with difficulty, "Disciple was careless with his words. Thank you for your guidance, Master."

Alright, you must capture this human, and it would be best if you could bring him before me. I want to see what makes him so special.

Here is a newly refined pill that can not only help you fully recover from the injuries sustained during this spell, but also increase your cultivation by ten thousand years.

Go on!

Having said that, before the Thunder Immortal Emperor could finish bowing, the Thunder God's figure had already disappeared before his eyes.
