"R-really?"
The Fated Client couldn’t entirely contain the surprise on his face. He knew Master wouldn’t deceive him at such a critical juncture.
So, there really was room for negotiation. It was just as he’d thought; only Master could save him now.
He wasn’t foolish, especially with the precedent of the Spirit dium’s failure. This Serpent Immortal was willing to compromise, which likely ant Master had employed so thod he wasn’t privy to.
But no matter what, as long as the desired outco was achieved.
The Fated Client suppressed his excited emotions. He glanced around, then asked with so doubt, "Then... shall we discuss it now? Master, please ask the Serpent Immortal to appear."
If they were to negotiate, the Fated Client felt it should be face-to-face.
However, Yaoyao shook her head. "That Serpent Immortal doesn’t wish to see you. You’ll be able to hear what it wants, so there’s no need to et it."
Besides the other party’s unwillingness, Yaoyao herself also didn’t really want it to appear in the livestream. That Serpent Immortal had cultivated for over a hundred years; its body was much larger than an ordinary snake’s.
If it suddenly appeared like a living transformation, the livestream might get banned. Then she wouldn’t be able to earn rit points! Yaoyao wouldn’t do anything that resulted in a loss!
This ti, it was the Fated Client’s turn to be dumbfounded. He wondered how they could negotiate without eting face-to-face.
Just as this thought surfaced, his body stiffened, for a low, hoarse male voice bood beside his ear. Evidently, it was the Serpent Immortal transmitting its voice. After all, a Household Immortal that had achieved cultivation would certainly possess so magical abilities.
Yaoyao didn’t interrupt; she simply watched quietly. If she wanted to, she could easily eavesdrop on the other party’s voice, but she was too lazy to do so. Ultimately, the Fated Client would either agree or disagree; there were only two possible outcos.
The feud between this person and the serpent was different from the malevolent spirits she had encountered before; she couldn’t interfere too much. She had already done what she could. As for whether the grievances could be resolved, it depended on whether they were both willing to make concessions and let go.
Waiting was boring and dull. Yaoyao didn’t concern herself with anything, happily picking up the foxnuts from the table to taste. Despite her blatant slacking off, the netizens only had a few scattered complaints, but most expressed understanding.
The main reason was that in this matter, both sides had points where they were in the wrong. The Fated Client’s issues were obvious and needn’t be ntioned. While the Serpent Immortal had requested the Fated Client to change the date, it had invaded soone’s ancestral grave without asking for reasons.
Was there truly no problem with that? Encountering soone who held such things sacred would surely lead to a major confrontation. Therefore, helping either side would easily earn a reputation for bias; it was better to do nothing at all.
Over a million people in the livestream bizarrely waited for the outco. Many newcors who stumbled in accidentally thought they had co across a baby eating show strear. Phrases like "So cute!" interspersed throughout the chat, creating an indescribable harmony.
Not long after, the negotiation finally concluded. To put it nicely, it was a negotiation; in reality, the Serpent Immortal made demands throughout, and the Fated Client nodded in agreent. Fortunately, the latter’s demands were still within a reasonable scope.
By the end, the Fated Client even promised to offer incense worship unconditionally for three generations. Yaoyao had anticipated this point beforehand. The Serpent Immortal’s willingness to concede indicated that it was reluctant to abandon its cultivated spiritual power and even yearned to advance further.
As one of the Northeast Five Immortals, their cultivation path was generally the sa: incense worship. And the power of incense vows could only be provided by humans. The simplest and most direct way for them to obtain it was, naturally, to serve as Household Immortals for people.
However, doing so ant facing many wishes that needed to be fulfilled. Each fulfillnt consud magical power, and it could easily turn into a losing venture.
Soone like the Fated Client, willing to offer unconditional worship, was practically a prized catch. No wonder that Serpent Immortal was willing to reconcile; after all, the benefits to its cultivation were imnse.
"Master, I wonder if you sell folded incense, candles, and paper ingots? If you do, could I... could I have so?" After stating the outco of the negotiation, the Fated Client’s gaze fell directly on Master, and his expression suddenly beca hesitant.
The reason he brought this up was that the Serpent Immortal’s conditions were flexible. The latter had said that if he could provide high-quality offerings, the duration of the worship could be shortened depending on the situation.
Worshipping for three generations sounded acceptable, but ultimately, it still implicated future descendants. The Fated Client wanted to try his best to repay it before he died.
And that Serpent Immortal had told him that the higher a person’s cultivation, the better the quality of the offerings they folded... The Fated Client thought about it. The most powerful person he knew was undoubtedly Master, so naturally, the offerings folded by Master would be the best.
"If... if you find it inconvenient, you can directly refuse... I was just asking." The Fated Client said, afraid Master might misunderstand, and quickly added another sentence.
Yaoyao paused for a mont upon hearing this, then her beautiful large eyes imdiately lit up. Because that Serpent Immortal had actually promised to exchange paper ingots and candles for worship ti. For others, this might be difficult to help with, but for her, it was no problem at all.
After all, she was a little master at folding paper ingots. As for their effectiveness? Even Lord Wuchang liked them; there was absolutely no doubt about their quality.
So, if she could fold them faster, she estimated it would only take a few days to successfully "redeem" her Fated Client brother. It would be a bit tiring in the process, but as long as it truly solved the problem, that was a good thing.
Thinking this, a smile finally appeared on Yaoyao’s small face. She nodded her small head vigorously, like a pounding mortar, and slowly said, "Okay! Big Brother, tell your address. When I’ve folded enough, I’ll mail them to you!"
"Thank you... thank you, Master!" The Fated Client hadn’t expected Master to agree so readily and couldn’t help but thank her again. At the sa ti, a lot of guilt welled up in his heart. Because if Master hadn’t helped him today, he might have t his end right there. Now, she was even helping him repay his debt. The Fated Client considered himself no ingrate.
He would certainly strive to repay these kindnesses. Before that, he had to first assess his own capabilities to achieve maximum efficiency. As for now? Of course, he’d use the simplest thod—sending gifts!
The netizens initially mocked the Fated Client for his bad luck. But upon seeing that the latter had tens of thousands in pocket money, they instantly couldn’t tell who should be crying. After all, if "poverty" were truly a disease, then for them, it would be a terminal illness at the very least.
