Chapter 610: 340 Comforted, but not fully comforted (Please subscribe! Please vote monthly!)
Zhou Qingxue and the others watched as Qin Hao was about to leave.
Suddenly, Zhou Qingxue beca anxious.
It was as if she rembered sothing and said, “Heavenly Master, please wait, I have a favor to ask.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Hao turned his head to look at Zhou Qingxue.
Li Mujian’s expression changed upon hearing Zhou Qingxue’s words.
He probably knew what Zhou Qingxue was about to say.
Imdiately, Li Mujian got a bad feeling.
She wouldn’t be thinking of asking the Heavenly Master for Longevity Immortal Herbs, would she?
Li Mujian was deeply shocked.
You simply can’t just ask for that!
Keep in mind, we are currently standing before the Heavenly Master.
The Heavenly Master is as exalted as a dragon and is currently the strongest on the surface of Blue Star.
An extraordinary status is at stake here.
The Zhou Family and Shenwu Mountain might be considered respectable forces on Hong Kong Island.
But in the eyes of the Heavenly Master, they’re nothing at all.
After all, Qingyun Mountain’s Heavenly Master holds power that, if seriously utilized, could directly communicate with the great nations of the world.
Even these great nations of present tis may not necessarily negotiate with the Heavenly Master on equal terms.
Li Mujian suddenly felt that Qingxue was being naive!
You simply can’t directly ask the Heavenly Master for things.
However, Zhou Qingxue hadn’t thought so much about it.
She just felt that the Heavenly Master in front of her was very powerful and seed approachable.
Zhou Qingxue also rembered news from Hong Kong Island that occasionally reported on how formidable the Purple Robed Heavenly Master in Dragon Country’s mainland was.
With the power to turn heaven and earth upside down and to reverse yin and yang.
So, what she thought was to give it a shot.
What if it worked out?
Then, Zhou Qingxue said, “I’ve heard that the Heavenly Master’s Taoist skill reaches the sky, and I admire it greatly. Unfortunately, I had no chance to see you before, which I deeply regret.
Today, having t the Heavenly Master by chance, Qingxue boldly asks for dicine from the Heavenly Master, hoping you would bestow upon Qingxue one Longevity Immortal Herb to save my grandfather. Afterwards, my Zhou Family will certainly offer a substantial reward, even if it ans I have to work like an ox or a horse, I am willing.”
What Zhou Qingxue thought was that her Zhou Family was wealthy; as long as the Heavenly Master was willing, they could afford to buy a Longevity Immortal Herb from him at any price.
After all, Zhou Qingxue was known as the business queen of Hong Kong Island, and she did have the courage.
Furthermore, the influence of Old Master Zhou on Hong Kong Island was far more important than any amount of money.
For Old Master Zhou to live a few more years would bring the Zhou Family benefits that money could not compare.
It was for this reason that Zhou Qingxue boldly took the risk to ask the Heavenly Master for dicine.
After all, compared to following Li Mujian around these mountains in a haphazard search for the exceedingly rare Longevity Immortal Fruit, which even Li Mujian himself didn’t know truly existed,
It was obviously more likely to obtain Longevity Immortal dicine by directly asking the Heavenly Master in front of her.
Moreover, Zhou Qingxue never fought unprepared battles.
She asked for this favor with so confidence.
After all, in Zhou Qingxue’s values, money can grease the wheels.
The Zhou Family lacked for nothing else, they just had money.
She couldn’t believe there was anyone in this world who didn’t love money.
As long as the Heavenly Master nad his price, the Zhou Family could certainly afford it.
Listening to Zhou Qingxue’s words, Qin Hao glanced at Taoist Jing Chen beside him and then at Li Mujian.
After a while, he said, “Infinite Heavenly Venerable, layman, have you ever heard this saying? An inch of ti is worth an inch of gold, but you can’t buy an inch of ti with a million gold.
Material wealth, power, career, connections—all things in this world can be asured by money, but only ti is priceless, and life span is invaluable. Do you think it’s a bit absurd to try to purchase Longevity dicine from ?”
Zhou Qingxue proposed buying Longevity Immortal dicine from him.
That was unexpected to Qin Hao.
He hadn’t anticipated Zhou Qingxue making such a request.
Not to ntion whether Qin Hao even possessed such Longevity Immortal dicine.
Even if he did, it wasn’t sothing to be sold or given away at random.
How long a person could live was predestined by fate.
Even now, Yang Ye, Qin Hao’s fellow countryman on Blue Star, who controls the Book of Life and Death, decides the fate of countless people.
But generally, Yang Ye wouldn’t arbitrarily help soone alter their fate.
No matter how outrageously unfair so people’s experiences may seem, to both humans and gods.
With matters of life and death, Yang Ye wouldn’t cross that line.
Because, in the mysterious workings of fate, everything is predestined, and wantonly breaking such predestinations, the resulting karma would reflect back upon oneself.
For instance, if you helped soone change their fate, letting soone who should have died live a few more years,
and that person does good deeds and stays out of trouble, then perhaps it would be fine.
But if they cause a big disturbance,
for example committing an unforgivable act, like killing hundreds or thousands of people,
or even becoming the source of a major event,
the karma from their deeds would be attributed to you, the person who extended their life.
Those who cultivate dread nothing more than acquiring too much karma.
Hence, such matters are taboo.
They aren’t things that can be bought with money.
And moreover, Zhou Qingxue doesn’t realize that money is useless to Qin Hao.
On this planet, does Qin Hao now need to use money to buy anything he wants?
Should he desire it, countless people would go out of their way to offer him gifts.
Besides, Zhou Qingxue knows very little about Qingyun Mountain.
When has Qingyun Mountain ever lacked for money?
In fact, over the years, Qingyun Mountain has donated countless billions to charity.
If they really wanted to make money, guess who would be the world’s richest person nowadays?
Zhou Qingxue listened to Qin Hao’s words.
She originally thought the Heavenly Master looked approachable and that her plea for dicine might have a chance of success.
But she didn’t expect to be flatly rejected.
Life is invaluable; Longevity dicine is not for sale.
Zhou Qingxue was imdiately stupefied.
This was the first ti in her life soone rejected her so directly.
She didn’t even know what to say anymore.
Watching Zhou Qingxue’s reaction,
Qin Hao could tell at a glance that people like Zhou Qingxue are most likely the rich daughters you would find in TV dramas or novels—born into privileged families with good looks, supported by various resources, well protected by high-ranking n.
In the first half of her life, she had gotten everything she wanted and had never suffered.
Never had she been rejected.
Now unexpectedly rejected, she was baffled.
Caught off guard and unable to react.
So, before Zhou Qingxue could speak, Qin Hao continued,
“Layman, although it’s true that ti is invaluable, and life is invaluable, your desire to obtain Longevity dicine is not entirely impossible; it’s just that I don’t sell that stuff here.
Everyone has their destiny; it’s determined by heaven. You wish to extend a family mber’s life, and that’s a sign of filial piety. In this vast world, there are many secret lands of incredible beauty, and the earth is full of wonders.
Although I do not sell any Longevity dicine, if you’re lucky, it’s not impossible to find Longevity Immortal dicine elsewhere. So, don’t be so disheartened, there’s still a chance.”
Qin Hao’s words were ant to comfort.
In any case, it was not his concern.
But he also reassured Zhou Qingxue not to lose hope, as this world indeed has Divine dicines for longevity.
It depends on whether you’re lucky enough and able to find it.
Isn’t there a living example by your side?
Like this Mountain Lord tiger in front of you, who happened to consu an Immortal Herb and cultivated to beco a spirit.
Or the ancestor from Shenwu Mountain, who by chance acquired the Longevity Immortal Fruit and got an opportunity.
So, everything is possible—it all depends on personal luck.
If you’re exceptionally lucky, you might even ascend to deityhood overnight.
If you’re unlucky, you can’t bla anyone, right?
Listening to the Heavenly Master’s comforting words, Zhou Qingxue beca even more confused.
Li Mujian and Taoist Jing Chen standing beside were also puzzled.
The words the Heavenly Master just said—they couldn’t tell if they were ant to be comforting or sothing else.
It seed like a comfort, yet not entirely comforting.
He said it, yet it was as if he hadn’t.
Zhou Qingxue herself found it ridiculous.
She thought: Thank you, it’s very comforting, and after that, even more confused.
