35: Bai Prostitute He Ni

"What's wrong, Young Master Gu?"

Chu Yao blinked her foxy eyes, feigning confusion, but the smugness in her gaze was impossible to hide.

That's what you get for underestimating my strength.

Now you're shocked by this big sister's little tricks, aren't you, you stinky little brother?

"..." Gu Qing was speechless.

This time, Rich Woman Yao really showed off.

Gu Qing said helplessly, "Such a huge debt, how can I ever repay it?"

"How to repay?"

"Simple. Young Master Gu, have you ever heard the saying, 'debts of the flesh are repaid with the flesh'?"

"I see Young Master Gu has some charm; why not just submit to this humble one?"

Chu Yao twirled a strand of her hair, her eyes like silken threads, dragging out the end of her last sentence, both seductive and alluring.

Coupled with her stunningly beautiful and charming face, it gave people endless fantasies.

"Bang."

"Vixen!"

"Don't go too far!"

Su Qingyue slammed her hand on the table, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.

Flirting with her Senior Brother right in front of her, what a shameless vixen, to even utter such brazen words.

"It's alright, Junior Sister."

Gu Qing gently pulled her back to her seat, then pondered for a moment before saying, "Chu Yao, just tell me directly, what exactly does your Chu Family want?"

The fact that Chu Yao dared to let him accrue such a large debt meant it wasn't something she alone could decide; the Chu Family must have some designs on him.

Furthermore, while Chu Yao, this little enchantress, spoke seductively, Gu Qing was certain that if he agreed, Chu Yao would absolutely go back on her word.

Gu Qing had lived two lives and had seen all sorts of people.

Such a seductive woman like Chu Yao, as cunning as a ghost, was the most difficult to deal with.

It was precisely because of this that when Chu Yao repeatedly sent signals of interest, hinting for him to pursue her, he chose to ignore them.

In his opinion, pursuing Chu Yao was not as good as pursuing Su Qingyue. She seemed cold, pure, and unapproachable, but in reality, her mind was simple, and whether she was easy or difficult to win over was clear at a glance.

Of course, this was just a metaphor.

What Gu Qing wanted to do most right now was to improve his cultivation.

After all, with such excellent cultivation conditions, if he didn't seize the opportunity, and someone surpassed him, missing it would be a lifelong regret.

"Young Master Gu, I think you've misunderstood me."

Chu Yao put away her smile and said seriously, "This is my personal action, unrelated to the Chu Family."

"Hmph, you talk big without fear of the wind cutting your tongue. Do you have that many spirit stones? Do you have that much authority? The Chu Family isn't just your Chu Family alone."

Clearly, Su Qingyue didn't believe a word Chu Yao said.

The Chu Family was a vast enterprise with hundreds of millions of clan members, and at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand, direct descendants.

Chu Yao was merely the daughter of the President.

Above the President, there was also the Elder Council, the Law Enforcement Hall, and the Grand Elders.

It was likely that even Chu Yao's father couldn't make this decision.

"Heh, merely useless spirit stones. Saintess Qingyue, you wouldn't even have this much dowry, would you?"

Chu Yao curved her fiery red lips, her mocking expression carrying endless charm.

"Do... dowry?"

Su Qingyue's beautiful eyes widened, her heart trembling.

"That's right!"

Chu Yao nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes smiling as she looked at Gu Qing.

"Young Master Gu, let's become Dao Companions. From now on, however much monster beast liquid you need, I will give you."

"You have talent, and I have money; we are simply a match made in heaven, a perfect pair."

As soon as these words were spoken, the color quickly drained from Su Qingyue's face, and her eyes showed panic.

Chu Yao was the President's only daughter, so it wasn't impossible for her to have such a generous dowry.

Then... "Junior Sister, don't listen to her nonsense."

Gu Qing patted her small hand, then looked at Chu Yao, his brows tightly furrowed.

He needed too much monster beast liquid.

Having Ji Ning hunt alone could only temporarily solve the immediate problem, but not for the long term.

After all, the Demon Race also had powerful beings.

They certainly wouldn't sit idly by while Ji Ning massacred low-level monster beasts.

Since Chu Yao could provide it, Gu Qing didn't want to trouble Ji Ning.

It's just... where would he get so many spirit stones?

[Host, with your charm, perhaps you can use your beauty to bewitch her and win her over. Wouldn't the Host then gain both wealth and beauty?]

The System's gentle, magnetic voice echoed in Gu Qing's mind, with a hint of teasing.

"..."

A crack appeared in Gu Qing's expression.

Charm? Beauty?

I'm a man, dammit.

It seems Godfather wants to go back to the little dark room.

But before that, he had to ask Godfather if Chu Yao was truly sincere about becoming his Dao Companion.

If it was true, then he would have hit the jackpot.

Gu Qing's heart stirred shamefully, and he asked the System in his mind, "Is what she said true?"

[False.]

"?"

"It's false, and you still want me to pursue her?" Gu Qing was furious.

[Her wanting to give herself to you is false, but the Host does possess astonishing beauty; I did not lie about that. If the Host bravely pursues her, it might succeed.]

Forget it, you'd better go stay in the little dark room.

[Host, calm down and listen to my analysis.]

Gu Qing took a deep breath: "Speak."

[Although she is cunning, the advantage is with the Host, and she is also somewhat moved by the Host. The success rate is very high. It's a pity the Host doesn't have the protagonist's intelligence-reducing halo, otherwise she would have already been won over.]

Gu Qing's heart stirred: "She can still be affected by the protagonist's halo?"

[Of course, the female lead is affected by the protagonist's intelligence-reducing halo more severely than the villain. However, the Host can rest assured that wherever you appear, the protagonist's halo will be affected by you, and may even become ineffective.]

[If the Host becomes her Dao Companion, even if the Host is not by her side, the protagonist's halo will have no effect on her.]

[I advise the Host to consider carefully. Don't be young and not know the benefits of a rich woman.]

Gu Qing fell silent.

This was good news, but also bad news.

Female leads were all proud daughters of heaven, not easy to pursue.

No, what was he thinking about?

He, Gu Qing, was determined to become a strong person, crushing stars with a flick of his finger, overlooking the ages. How could he think about living off a woman?

Instead of thinking about those unrealistic things, it was more practical to honestly improve his cultivation.

Damn you, Godfather, you'd better go to the little dark room.

He Ni transmitted, "You can trade cultivation methods and divine abilities with her."

"That's a good idea, but I don't have any."

The cultivation methods and divine abilities of the Star God Temple could not be leaked. His Yin Yang Great Dao Song and Undying Celestial Art, however, could.

But these two divine arts were too powerful, and Gu Qing was reluctant to pass them on to others.

"Cultivation methods and divine abilities, I have plenty. Here you go." He Ni tossed out two jade slips.

Gu Qing: "..."

This was truly a sudden surprise.

He hadn't spent a single penny and could obtain countless monster beast liquid.

Keeping He Ni by his side truly brought endless benefits.

Thinking this, Gu Qing took out the two jade slips.

"I'll trade cultivation methods and divine abilities with you."

"What grade are they?"

Chu Yao was startled, then casually scanned them with her divine sense.

To be honest, upon hearing about trading cultivation methods and divine abilities, she instantly lost interest.

After all, she wasn't lacking in cultivation methods or divine abilities at all.

Nor did she believe Gu Qing could produce any powerful cultivation methods or divine abilities.

Of course, she wasn't truly going to become Gu Qing's Dao Companion; she just wanted to tease Su Qingyue.

With her noble status, it was impossible for her to give herself away for free.

Once a woman gave herself away for free, she lost her value.

Chu Yao's ultimate goal was to see if there was any chance to trade for a Star Fruit.

It didn't matter if she couldn't trade for it; anyway, the monster beast liquid was still in her hands, and she wouldn't give it away for free.

"Hmm..."

Upon seeing the cultivation method and divine ability, Chu Yao's expression changed drastically.

"This... this is actually a divine-grade cultivation method, an ancient divine ability!"

A divine-grade cultivation method was a method that allowed one to cultivate to godhood.

And a Ten Thousand Ancient Divine Ability, as its name suggested, was a divine ability that could be passed down through the ages.

For example, the Star Picking Hand, Star Shattering Finger, and Seven Stars Sword Art of the Star God Temple, and so on.

These were all divine abilities passed down through the ages, with terrifying and peerless power.

Chu Yao had never expected that in her lifetime, she would actually be able to trade for such a cultivation method and divine ability.

One must know, this was a secret that was not to be taught.

It was enough to establish a sect, or become a clan's ultimate ancestral art, creating an immortal power.

"Senior Brother..."

Seeing this, Su Qingyue also quickly scanned with her divine sense, and immediately paled in shock.

She looked at Gu Qing, wanting to speak but hesitating.

She really wanted to say, how could such a cultivation method and divine ability be exchanged for mere worldly possessions?

But if she knew this, how could Gu Qing not know?

Therefore, she sat by, fretful.

"No matter how important cultivation methods and divine abilities are, they are not as important as improving cultivation. My ambition is to achieve longevity, and mere cultivation methods and divine abilities, to me, are just usable resources."

"If they cannot be utilized, they are no different from scrap."

Gu Qing naturally knew that this cultivation method and divine ability were priceless treasures to others.

But to him, they were just things that could bring him benefits.

Gu Qing had no intention of hoarding a treasure mountain without developing it.

Moreover, these weren't even his.

He got them for free from He Ni, what was there to be reluctant about?

"Good, good, good!"

"Young Master Gu is truly an understanding person."

Chu Yao was ecstatic.

For no other reason than that this cultivation method and divine ability were perfectly suited to her physique.

With this cultivation method and divine ability, Chu Yao was confident she could contend with those ancient prodigies and supreme divine bodies.

This was a chance to become a god!

Buy... even if it meant losing everything, she had to buy it.

With this thought, Chu Yao quickly said.

"Deal. Young Master Gu, feel free to state any requirements."

"Straightforward."

Gu Qing nodded; he was not a person who liked to be long-winded.

"Then..."

"Young Master Gu, when do you plan to give me the subsequent cultivation method?"

"Young Master Gu, approximately how much monster beast liquid do you need? Besides that, does Young Master Gu need anything else?"

Chu Yao bit her red lips, beginning to negotiate terms.

The cultivation method Gu Qing gave only had the first half, though the divine ability was complete.

"I only need monster beast liquid, as much as you have, and some spirit herbs too."

"..."

Chu Yao blinked her foxy eyes, a little bewildered.

Su Qingyue was equally confused.

They had always thought that Gu Qing needed monster beast liquid for body tempering.

But did body tempering require that much monster beast liquid?

Do you even know how much monster beast liquid and spirit herbs the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion actually has?

"Young Master Gu, do you really not need anything else?"

Chu Yao asked softly, uncertainly.

If it was just monster beast liquid and no need for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, then she would have made a huge profit.

It would be equivalent to getting the cultivation method and divine ability for free.

After all, spirit stones, to her, were just the most useless things.

She had as many as she wanted.

When spirit stones accumulated to a certain extent, they were just a number.

What her Chu Family needed were powerful cultivation methods and divine abilities, as well as heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could improve aptitude and cultivation without any side effects.

In short, anything that could be bought with spirit stones was considered a common item.

"No need."

"Then you state a specific quantity..."

It was time for bargaining.

Three hours later, Chu Yao smiled like a proud vixen.

Gu Qing also smiled.

The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion agreed to give him all their monster beast liquid stock.

There were probably tens of millions of level three and above, and hundreds of billions below level three.

Furthermore, Gu Qing also secured ten trillion top-grade spirit stones and one hundred million spirit herbs below level three.

It must be said that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's ability to produce such vast resources was truly indicative of its wealth.

Rich Woman Yao was indeed worthy of her name.

"Young Master Gu, can you give me the subsequent cultivation method in advance?"

Chu Yao smoothed her hair, alluring and charming.

Although doing so was against the rules, she was already impatient to obtain the subsequent cultivation method.

So she couldn't help but ask.

She didn't even expect Gu Qing to give it.

"Here you go."

Gu Qing understood her feelings.

Anyone who learned of a chance to become a god would not be able to control themselves.

Anyway, he wasn't afraid of Chu Yao defaulting on the debt.

In this world, no one dared to default on the Star God Temple's debt.

"Thank you."

Chu Yao's delicate body trembled with excitement.

She had never expected that her casual question, for which she held no hope, would actually come true.

Looking at the peerlessly handsome Gu Qing, Chu Yao felt more and more that Gu Qing had truly captured her heart.

"No need to thank me. I was going to give it to you sooner or later anyway."

"Just get the resources to me as soon as possible."

Gu Qing smiled.

He thought, this time, it was all thanks to He Ni.

Once it's melted into monster beast liquid, I'll give her half.

"Alright!"

Chu Yao nodded, then took out a purple-gold token, a Heaven-grade magical artifact.

"This is my Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's purple-gold token. Young Master Gu, please keep it safe. If you ever need anything from my Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion in the future, just ask."

The purple-gold token was the highest-grade token in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, granting the holder the right to purchase any item at cost price.

It also granted priority purchasing rights, the ability to borrow trillions of top-grade spirit stones, and allowed the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to collect desired treasures or information for the holder, and so on.

Possessing a purple-gold token was equivalent to having the entire Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion at one's disposal.

Logically speaking, Chu Yao was not qualified to gift such a precious token.

Even the President didn't have the authority to give it to just anyone; it required the approval of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's high-level executives.

However, the one Chu Yao gave was her own.

And she had already sent a message to her father, receiving unanimous approval from the Chu Family.

"If there are any future collaborations, Young Master Gu, you must come to me. I guarantee the price will satisfy you."

Chu Yao's face was filled with joy. Meeting Gu Qing was simply the greatest luck of her life.

Her heart grew even more expectant, wondering what benefits Gu Qing would bring her next time he sought a transaction.

"It's easy to say, easy to say."

Gu Qing nodded, mentioning that he still needed monster beast liquid and low-grade spirit herbs.

As for why he needed spirit herbs, there was no other reason than their cheap price.

Because some spirit herbs could be cultivated on a large scale, they were very inexpensive.

When the two women heard this, their eyelids twitched wildly.

Getting so much still wasn't enough; the answer was very clear.

Gu Qing was not using monster beast liquid and spirit herbs for body tempering at all.

As for what he was using them for, they couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they thought.

After all, the quantity was too massive; poverty limited their imagination.

Dong dong dong!

"Fairy Chu Yao, I have something to ask of you."

Outside the door, Xiao Yi waited like an ant on a hot pan.

After much hesitation, he decided to knock on the door.
