139: Go fight the World Boss!
Su Hai actually understood the reasoning himself.
But he defended himself, saying, “I know what you want to say, Sis. It’s about reputation, right? But you have to understand, the contract industry is completely monopolized by our Su Family!”
“So what if those players know I have the ability to tamper with contracts?”
“If they want contracts, they can only buy them from me! That’s the charm of a monopoly!”
He spoke with an air of arrogance.
Su Ling looked at her younger brother with an unusually unfamiliar gaze.
She let out a heavy sigh, her tone growing colder: “Have you forgotten that there are two identical Jiao Zhengqings in this world?”
“So, one day, will there be two, or even three or four, identical Su Hais?”
Su Hai’s face finally paled a little.
But he still stubbornly refused to admit his mistake.
Su Ling looked at him deeply and suddenly said, “Xiao Hai. When Mom and Dad passed away, they entrusted me not only with you but also with the entire Su Family. If one day, I have to choose between you and the Su Family, I will choose the Su Family.”
Su Hai’s face grew even paler, but he still stubbornly said, “Don’t worry, Sis, that day will never come! At this stage, almost half of the Su Family’s income comes from the contracts I make! The entire Su Family cannot do without me!”
This was clearly also the reason for Su Hai’s inflated ego.
Su Ling felt a heavy heart but said nothing more.
She could only hope that Su Hai’s mistake would not lead to too severe consequences!
It would be best if, as he said, Big Shot Lin Chuan was doomed to die, and Weng Xun’s plan went smoothly.
The matter of Su Hai helping Weng Xun tamper with the contract would remain a secret among everyone involved.
But was Big Shot Lin Chuan really doomed to die?
Su Ling didn't know; she just felt a lot of pain in her body and a heavy heart.
Haicheng Library.
Due to time constraints, Jiao Zhengqing and Yin Xi’s discussion did not take too long.
They simply formulated an itinerary plan and then began to acquire various items in the trading market, such as national teleportation cards and gas masks, which could offer some defense against Bloodthirsty Vines.
However, national teleportation cards were still too scarce at this stage.
It was practically impossible for Jiao Zhengqing’s entire team to teleport to Sakura Country.
But he also knew in his heart that going to Sakura Country, where the World Boss was located, was extremely dangerous this time.
One misstep could mean utter annihilation!
Having all guild members go to Sakura Country might not help much; instead, it could lead to a complete wipeout.
Therefore, Jiao Zhengqing ultimately only managed to obtain three national teleportation cards.
When he emerged from the reading room, he found two unfamiliar faces in his guild!
One was a young girl, exquisitely beautiful, like a little elf from a two-dimensional world.
The other was a man completely covered from head to toe, his features indiscernible.
Jiao Zhengqing subconsciously frowned.
And the guild’s second-in-command, the tall and thin young man Zhou Yi.
He was the former manager of the Four Seasons Hotel and had previously been severely criticized by Jiao Zhengqing for mistaking Big Shot Lin Chuan for someone buying equipment.
This time, he was particularly cautious, stepping forward to explain to Jiao Zhengqing: “These two people said they wanted to enter the reading room to find Big Shot Lin Chuan…”
These words were too easy to misunderstand!
After all, with Big Shot Lin Chuan becoming a God Punisher, countless people worldwide wanted to kill him!
But Aiya was genuinely worried about Big Shot Lin Chuan, which was why she came to find him!
Her worry was undisguised, and she hurriedly explained with a slight frown: “Lin Chuan and I are friends, but a while ago, I couldn’t contact him at all. I came here following the coordinates given by the God’s Punishment Task because I was worried.”
Aiya’s looks were indeed stunning.
However, Jiao Zhengqing had long passed the stage where his judgment was swayed by beauty.
Moreover, Aiya was too young and not his type.
His face was grim, and because he was in a bad mood, his tone was also impatient: “Adding friends is just words without proof. If you are truly the boss’s friend, please leave immediately and don’t cause misunderstandings or trouble!”
Aiya, however, was truly worried about Big Shot Lin Chuan: “You call Big Shot Lin Chuan your boss, so you’re his subordinate? What exactly happened to him? Tell me first, then I’ll consider whether to leave!”
Jiao Zhengqing grew even more impatient; he had less than six hours and didn’t want to waste time on this little girl.
However, just as he was about to scold Aiya again to leave, Yin Xi suddenly spoke: “She shouldn’t be lying.”
“Hmm?” Jiao Zhengqing looked at Yin Xi in confusion.
Yin Xi pointed at Cai Zhiji, who was completely wrapped up from head to toe, his features hidden, and said in a deep voice: “It should be Big Shot Lin Chuan’s clone.”
“The boss’s clone?” Jiao Zhengqing looked at Cai Zhiji with a suspicious expression and then asked Yin Xi, “How did you figure that out?”
Yin Xi’s expression was as always, indifferent: “My Talent.”
Jiao Zhengqing didn’t ask any more questions, but his tone and attitude towards Aiya became much gentler: “Alright. The boss went to a secret realm. You can stay here and wait for him to come out.”
“Secret realm?” Aiya frowned slightly, about to ask more questions.
But Jiao Zhengqing was already frantically giving orders to Zhou Yi.
He was going to be away for a while, so the guild would temporarily be managed by Zhou Yi.
Their guild was not yet strong; they had just started and occupied the vending machine, which originally required time for steady development, but at this time, the guild’s strongest member, Jiao Zhengqing, had to leave.
The remaining guild members might not be able to hold onto the vending machine.
And Jiao Zhengqing’s instruction was—hold it if you can, if not, prioritize survival!
After all arrangements were made, Zhou Yi finally asked: “Boss, where are you going in such a hurry?”
“To Sakura Country, to fight the World Boss!”
Jiao Zhengqing didn’t link this matter to Big Shot Lin Chuan, to avoid any malicious interference.
“Fight the World Boss? But didn’t we say before that we wouldn’t get involved?”
“Before was before, now is now, don’t ask any more!”
Zhou Yi nodded: “Alright, Boss, while you’re away, I will definitely guard the guild!”
Jiao Zhengqing hesitated for a moment, then finally handed over the Crystal Nucleus that Big Shot Lin Chuan had given him to Zhou Yi.
He said in a heavy tone: “Originally, I planned to have all of you get on the level ranking, but now, we have high-level crystal nuclei, but the auxiliary potions haven’t been acquired yet…”
Before he finished speaking, Yin Xi suddenly interjected: “Auxiliary potions for absorbing crystal nuclei 5 levels higher? Perhaps I can get them for you.”
“Hmm?” Jiao Zhengqing instantly looked at him with surprise.
Yin Xi, like Big Shot Lin Chuan before him, had entered the welfare secret realm by increasing his customer level.
However, he wasn’t sure if his customer level from another world would still be effective in this world.
So he walked to the vending machine and tried it, only to find that his customer level in this world had also risen to Level 2!
At Customer Level 2, more items could be purchased from the vending machine, but they were also more expensive, with prices generally starting from Level 10 crystal nuclei!
He turned to Jiao Zhengqing and asked: “How many auxiliary potions do you need?”
“About a hundred bottles?” Jiao Zhengqing casually gave a number.
As a result, Yin Xi’s numb and indifferent face twitched slightly: “Then I’m sorry, I can’t afford that.”
Jiao Zhengqing’s tone was bold: “It’s fine, I’ll provide the crystal nuclei. How many do you need?”
Yin Xi: “A thousand Level 10 crystal nuclei.”
Jiao Zhengqing: “Excuse me, I’m leaving!”
What the heck! Auxiliary potions are that expensive?!
At this stage, who the hell can afford them?!
