Chapter 514: 【389】Deal! S-level Sealed Object! (4K for Monthly Tickets and Recomndations)_1
Elder Jiang?
Pei Jinye’s face was full of amusent.
Obviously, Qi Zhonglu did not know that Jiang Qingcang was Pei Jinye.
At this mont, seeing him shalessly pretend to be familiar with him in public, Pei Jinye was expressionless.
Qi Zhonglu’s heart sank.
Could it be that the rumor about Pei Jinye being favored by Jiang Qingcang was false?
No, that’s not right.
If that news was fake, then the people from the Jiang family would not have taken the initiative to protect his daughter tonight, although he didn’t know who had saved her.
But in Da Peng City, the only people who could have such a strong person and have so connection with him were probably only the Jiang family.
With this thought in mind, Qi Zhonglu said gravely, “I am also surprised about Jinye’s matter, but my coming here is indeed abrupt. Nevertheless, I think the matter of the Spirit Ore has already proven my worth to you and the Jiang family, so I would like to conduct another transaction.”
“The matter of the Spirit Ore is unknown to others, but you now point it out. Are you not afraid that I will kill you?” Pei Jinye, with his back to him, was scattering Spirit Rice in his hands as dozens of birds pecked at the grains on the ground.
“I trust the old gentleman’s character, and even more so, Jinye’s judgnt. Moreover, I am here with sincerity,” Qi Zhonglu said with a heavy voice.
Pei Jinye’s silence was trendously deterring.
A mont later.
He spoke succinctly, “Speak.”
Qi Zhonglu, this ti, did not speak but cautiously looked around instead.
Pei Jinye said indifferently, “There’s no one around, you can speak freely here. If you have concerns, feel free to leave.”
“My apologies for being presumptuous,” said Qi Zhonglu as he nodded slightly, surprised in his heart.
He had heard of the legendary stories of Elder Jiang before. By the ti he took over his family business, this elder had already retreated behind the scenes, and he had never had the chance to et him.
Now that he was eting him privately, he felt inexplicably guilty for so reason.
But in fact, he had nothing to feel guilty about.
He had reciprocated Pei Jinye’s favor by providing information about the Spirit Ore, which had now been transferred to the Jiang family.
And the timing was before the incident involving Pei Jinye.
Qi Zhonglu had reasons to believe that Pei Jinye might be soone supported by Jiang Qingcang.
It was just a pity that Pei Jinye had encountered a mishap at such a young age.
Otherwise, he might have really increased his investnts.
“Between Central State and the Western Continent is a sea area known as the Federico Sea. Have you heard of the Qián Lóng shipwreck?”
Qi Zhonglu looked over.
“Just speak your part,” Pei Jinye did not respond to his inquiry.
This made Qi Zhonglu chuckle with a touch of displeasure.
He indeed did not have a strong enough hand, and moreover, the other party was superior to him in every aspect.
The rule of being a fish on the cutting board was sothing he understood better than anyone else.
Without further delay.
He said in a deep voice, “Back then, the Qián Lóng was chartered by an old patriarch of a distinguished family from the Western Continent who took his family to move south. The reason for the shipwreck was that soone did not want them to leave the Western Continent. As for the reason, I’m not sure, but what’s certain is that the ship was never discovered…”
Qi Zhonglu continued in a lower voice, “After the shipwreck, various parties went to search the sea but found no ship, only so remains. As for the various resources and the old patriarch that they carried, it was as if they evaporated from the world… In fact… the ship itself was a Sealing Object, an S-level sealed object! That’s why it eluded the search from all parties.”
Pei Jinye’s interest was piqued.
In his two intrusions into the Federation’s top-secret database.
Pei Jinye was not without gains.
He thought of sothing.
“Are you talking about the North Continent Beichen Family?”
Qi Zhonglu was startled, “You know?”
What he ntioned was indeed about the North Continent Beichen Family.
Back then, a mber of the Beichen family had been accepted into the Sword Pavilion and had received personal guidance from an expert there. It was said that he condensed Sword Intent within three days and broke through Third Rank in a hundred days.
He was hailed as the strongest Swordsman among the young generation of the North Continent.
But it was a pity that for so reason, he withdrew from the Sword Pavilion later and chose to pursue a political career.
He rose rapidly to the position of a candidate for Governor.
However, he got involved in a scandal that shocked the Federation, and the rise of the Beichen family was halted, paying the price with the death of that genius.
For more than a hundred years afterward, the Beichen family remained semi-reclusive in the mountains.
Then, two hundred years later, another political prodigy appeared.
The Beichen family re-entered the Federation’s high-level Vision.
By that ti, the expert from the Sword Pavilion had ceased venturing out.
The Beichen family beca the strongest power in the North Continent, amassing countless resources.
Civilian rumors called them the King of the North Continent.
Two hundred years later, this King led his family to flee the North Continent overnight, carrying a vast amount of cultivation resources… yet ended up with a fate of death and disappearance.
“Three hundred li below the Federico Sea lays that treasure ship. I can enable the Jiang family to acquire that ship,” Qi Zhonglu’s gaze was determined.
“So, what do you want?” Pei Jinye looked at Qi Zhonglu.
He did not show rcy just because the man was Sun Ruofan’s father.
Business is business.
When it ca to interests, he expected Qi Zhonglu to be as decisive as himself.
“I hope the Jiang family can protect my daughter, not just for Jinye’s sake, but I want real protection,” Qi Zhonglu said gravely. “Due to so of my actions, more and more attention is being directed toward , and it’s likely my daughter could face assassination attempts like tonight’s again… I also thank the elder for sending soone to rescue her.”
When Pei Jinye heard this, he knew that the other party was aware of what had happened to Sun Ruofan tonight.
But clearly, there was so sort of misunderstanding.
However, let the misunderstanding stand.
Pei Jinye had no intention to clarify anything.
“Real protection?” He looked up.
