1399: Chapter 1399: Earth Immortal Level Deal 1399: Chapter 1399: Earth Immortal Level Deal “There’s…
nothing.”
Qian Jinhu was obviously aware that he had spoken out of turn, his eyes darting around as he deliberately avoided the question.
This made Su Chengyu even more certain of one thing: the Qian family’s sudden appearance was definitely not as simple as wanting to form a connection with him; it was, as they themselves put it, to end sothing.
This normally wouldn’t matter, Su Chengyu did not consider himself a good person, but along the path of cultivation, he indeed had a clear conscience.
If soone wanted to repay him, even if they did not wish to reveal their identity, Su Chengyu was happy to accept with openness.
However, the gift from the Qian family was far too generous.
It was so extravagant that Su Chengyu really couldn’t think of anything he had done that would make the Qian family want to sever ties with him to such an extent.
Two King-grade Divine Artifacts and a Heavenly-level cultivation thod – such demands would be exorbitantly priced even among the Ancient Clans.
Of course, the steep price was not unreasonable.
If there were Earth Immortal Level powerhouses in Ancient Clans who needed it to save their lives, he believed they would be willing to pay such a cost to bring back a living Earth Immortal.
This was the principle of ‘expensive things have their reasons’ that the Qian family spoke of; they conducted their business in a way that made you “willingly agree.”
And what made Su Chengyu qualified to have the Qian family so willingly part with such a grand gift?
“Qian Jinhu, do I look like a rookie to you?”
Qian Jinhu grimaced awkwardly, naturally aware that his slip of the tongue was not sothing that he could brush off with casual excuses.
But the matter involved was so serious that even if Qian Jinhu were killed, he dared not reveal it.
“Mr.
Su, you know what’s going on.
Please stop asking.
No matter how much you question , it is absolutely impossible for to tell.”
“Even if it ans death?”
Su Chengyu asked with narrowed eyes.
Qian Jinhu’s heart skipped a beat, and he awkwardly said, “Mr.
Su is joking, right?”
Faced with Qian Jinhu’s unease, Su Chengyu was very cold: “This is the Bei Luo Empire, I could kill you and most likely no one could stop it.
Moreover…
the Qian family must acknowledge they owe a great deal, your life, I suppose, is not enough for them to completely break ties with .”
Qian Jinhu’s face turned extrely awkward; only at this mont did he truly realize into what kind of a predicant his earlier words had put him.
However, considering the deep entanglents of that issue, Qian Jinhu took a deep breath and said.
“Then kill , rest assured, Mr.
Su, if you intend to take action, no one in my poor establishnt will stop you.
My life can be considered as the Qian family’s compensation to you.”
His words were decisive, as if he had made up his mind to die here.
Seeing Qian Jinhu like this, Su Chengyu was sowhat surprised.
He had assud that the other party would at most threaten or negotiate with him, but he did not expect him to be willing to die by his hand rather than reveal even a hint of information about the matter.
His heart was even more intrigued by the mystery, but seeing Qian Jinhu’s resolve to face death, Su Chengyu finally began to withdraw the intense killing intent he had been emitting.
Feeling the killing intent fading beside him, Qian Jinhu finally breathed a huge sigh of relief, then looked at Su Chengyu and said, “I knew Mr.
Su wasn’t the type of person who relishes killing.”
“How would you know that?”
Su Chengyu countered.
Qian Jinhu chuckled, “After all, you are a person of the Demon Slayer Departnt; senseless slaughter is out of the question.”
Su Chengyu knew that Qian Jinhu was just spouting nonsense now.
Indeed, there were those within the Demon Slayer Departnt who adhered to their own code, yet the likes of Red Fla, already infamous, certainly existed.
“There’s no need for pleasantries; I am indeed very curious as to why the Qian family approached , but you don’t want to talk, and I can’t force you.
But…”
Hearing Su Chengyu change the tone of his conversation, Qian Jinhu hurriedly interrupted him, speaking first, “As long as Mr.
Su is willing, the Qian family would like to be friends with Mr.
Su.
Whatever you need, just ask.”
“So I just need to speak up until you think we are even, right?”
Su Chengyu spoke directly.
Qian Jinhu didn’t deny it this ti, but just chuckled and said, “You might as well consider it a debt our Qian family was born owing you.”
Su Chengyu remained silent, the more Qian Jinhu acted this way, the more he cared about what exactly it ant.
Unfortunately, it seed like this guy would rather die by his own hand than reveal even a hint of a secret.
And it wasn’t that he didn’t want to, it was that he didn’t dare to.
“Enough, I will eventually figure out exactly what’s going on.
If there’s an account that needs to be settled, I will certainly make it crystal clear with your Qian family.”
Qian Jinhu just smiled upon hearing these words, completely unconcerned.
He wasn’t worried about Su Chengyu finding out everything.
As long as Su Chengyu didn’t learn it from him, that was all Qian Jinhu needed to ensure.
He knew very well that if he let slip even a hint of information, he had no idea how Su Chengyu would deal with the Qian family, but what he did know was that he would definitely be driven out of the Qian family.
“Mr.
Su, please be magnanimous.
Just don’t trouble this old man further, and everything can be negotiated, everything.”
Su Chengyu’s odd reaction only made him more puzzled.
However, after so thought, he still said, “Let’s leave this matter be for now.
I actually ca here to discuss another serious business with the Qian family.”
“Oh?
Mr.
Su truly has a business deal?”
“Are you so sure it’s about a business deal?”
Qian Jinhu said, “Our Qian family is in the business of trade, the only serious business we can talk about naturally involves trading.
Mr.
Su, please don’t be shy, just na your demand, and I assure you I will offer a fair price.”
“A fair price from the Qian Family?”
Qian Jinhu grinned and said, “Mr.
Su, our deals at Qian Family are always recorded.
Even if I wanted to give you an extra discount, it would be beyond my power.”
Having already learned from Ye Qingci about the Qian family’s habit of driving a hard bargain, Su Chengyu didn’t mind and continued.
“As long as the Qian family can find what I want, the price can be negotiated.
Even if I can’t afford it, there are certainly others who can.”
“Oh?
A big backer?”
“Is an Earth Immortal Level backer enough?”
Qian Jinhu’s eyes lit up when he heard what Su Chengyu said.
The Qian family’s business spread across the globe, only because they engaged in big transactions.
Despite Xia Country’s vastness, such big transactions were rare; they had to extend their gaze to various countries and powers.
Even so, Earth Immortal Level transactions were rarely encountered a few tis a year.
“What exactly does Mr.
Su want?”
Qian Jinhu asked eagerly, his eyes shining.
“I’m looking for a magic artifact, or you could say a tool, that can suppress an individual, preferably in a way that injures but doesn’t kill.”
After hearing this, Qian Jinhu thoughtfully said, “Most of those are used to imprison others.
What does Mr.
Su need sothing like that for?”
“Is conducting business with the Qian family also contingent on revealing these details?”
Qian Jinhu imdiately made an appeasing smile and said, “No, no, just curious, just asking.
The item isn’t hard to find, but when it cos to its grade…”
“It must be of a grade capable of suppressing soone at the Earth Immortal Realm.
In the hands of soone who is also an Earth Immortal, it should leave another Earth Immortal nearly powerless.”
Hearing this, Qian Jinhu gasped, amazed.
“That would be equivalent to sothing of a King-grade Divine Instrunt level.
As far as I know, in the entire Bei Luo, only the Tower of Eternal Winter posses such capability.”
“That’s right, I want sothing similar to the Tower of Eternal Winter, like the Demon Suppression Tower.”
