119: Chapter 119 Contract Scroll

Seeing this, Qin Xiao did not stand on ceremony and immediately put forward three conditions: "First, I can be stationed in Great Wei, but I will not take action lightly; every time I take action, I will charge an additional fee."

"Second, if I encounter a siege by those Return to One Realm Martial Artists and I feel that I cannot overcome them, I will run without hesitation. I am stating this beforehand."

"Furthermore, due to the nature of my Cultivation Technique, I need to find some beautiful Martial Artists, and the Great Wei Dynasty must cooperate with me."

"This... is acceptable!"

Wei Qiankun pondered for a moment before agreeing. The other party's first condition, demanding a fee for taking action, was reasonable, so he had no way to refuse.

The second one gave him a bit of a headache; if he runs when he cannot win, would all his money not be wasted? However, what the other party said also made sense. If you cannot win, do you not run? Are you supposed to stay and seek death?

If it were him, he would also run. It would be the same for anyone else. The fact that the other party could state this point already proved his sincerity.

As for the third point, it was simple for him. It was just some beautiful women; how could he not have as many as he wanted?

It was just that Wei Qiankun never imagined that Qin Xiao's standards had become increasingly higher; besides beauty, he paid special attention to the other party's status and background.

In terms of status and background, those of noble standing in Great Wei naturally ranked at the forefront, namely the members of the royal family.

It was rumored that the current Empress was a stunningly beautiful woman—noble, elegant, mature, charming, and gentle as water. She was a rare beauty...

Plus, the Crown Princess had already fallen into his hands, though he had not yet had the chance to savor her. If the Empress were added to that, the mere thought was stirring.

Wei Qiankun exchanged a few more pleasantries, then took out an ancient scroll filled with an eerie aura. He held it in his hand and said solemnly:

"Fellow Daoist Ximen, since we have already agreed on the alliance, let us place our blood essence marks on this Contract Scroll."

Contract Scroll?

Qin Xiao's pupils constricted. He knew of this item; it was extremely precious. Once the contract was signed, it would receive the certification of an ancient Demon God. If the contract were violated, one would surely pay a huge price; their Soul would be taken away by the ancient Demon God to become fodder for the Demon God.

"Fellow Daoist Ximen recognizes this item, right? If not, I can explain it to Fellow Daoist Ximen."

Seeing Qin Xiao's surprised expression, a smile appeared on Wei Qiankun's face.

Since he had offered such great benefits, he naturally had to find a way to restrain the other party.

Otherwise, if the other party took the items and ran, did not abide by the treaty, and did not protect Great Wei, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Although he did not know Ximen Qing's true identity, it did not matter. As long as this contract was signed, the other party would have no choice but to abide by the contract's contents.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, to think you could produce such a treasure; it truly opens my eyes."

Qin Xiao exclaimed.

Qin Xiao had only seen the Contract Scroll in some ancient books; it was a popular item in the ancient era and a must-have for ancient Cultivators when trading, even used by Saints.

This was enough to show how extraordinary the Contract Scroll was; a contract that even Saints dared not violate demonstrated its powerful binding force.

However, after the ancient era, this item had become extremely rare, and he had not expected Wei Qiankun to possess one.

Wei Qiankun wrote the terms they had agreed upon on it, branded it with his own blood essence mark, and then said to Qin Xiao: "Fellow Daoist Ximen, please."

"Very well."

Qin Xiao nodded. Sign it then, why not? In any case, he had no intention of breaking the contract. Protecting Great Wei had more benefits than drawbacks for his Qin Family.

He condensed a drop of blood essence between his fingers and then shot it into the Contract Scroll.

As the contract was completed, the Contract Scroll immediately ignited, turned into a ray of light, flew toward the sky, and then disappeared without a trace.

Wei Qiankun exchanged a few more words with Qin Xiao and then rushed back to the Great Wei Imperial Palace.

The resources promised to Qin Xiao were substantial; he needed to return to the Imperial Palace's treasury to gather them.

One day later, Wei Qiankun gathered the resources for the transaction and delivered them into Qin Xiao's hands; from then on, the power of the contract was officially formed.

Soon, news spread that Ximen Qing had joined the Great Wei Dynasty and become a consultant for the Great Wei Dynasty.

When all the various forces learned of this news, they were shocked. Great Wei had actually managed to invite a Return to One Realm consultant?

Could it be fake? However, thinking about the suddenly appeared Ximen Qing, they felt that this news might be true.

Their speculation was soon confirmed. After Qin Xiao took the items, he directly announced this news in Yong Province City to show his support for Great Wei.

"I am Ximen Qing. From now on, I am a consultant for Great Wei. I will be stationed in Great Wei for a hundred years."

The aura of the Return to One Realm covered the area, and his voice, like a thunderclap in a clear sky, resonated throughout Yong Province City.

In an instant, this news spread throughout the entire Hundred Kingdoms Territory, stirring up a huge storm and attracting countless attention.

"Ximen Qing!"

"Great Wei's luck is truly good; they actually managed to invite a Return to One Realm Martial Artist to be stationed there. I wonder how much of a price they had to pay?"

"Tsk tsk, it seems this Great Wei can be stable for another hundred years or so."

"Not necessarily. If the three kingdoms, including Great Chu, join forces, even that Ximen Qing might not be able to hold them off."

Yun Province, in Yun Province City.

The White Lotus Sect Leader, Wusheng, and a group of high-level members of the White Lotus Sect were gathered in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Damn it, this Ximen Qing has actually joined Great Wei. What kind of conditions did that old immortal Wei Qiankun offer to actually make a Return to One Realm Martial Artist willing to protect his Great Wei for a hundred years?"

Wusheng let out a roar, his tone full of unwillingness. For some time now, the situation of their White Lotus Sect uprising had been excellent.

They had beaten the Great Wei Dynasty's army into a constant retreat and seized a lot of territory. If this continued, he believed it would not be long before they could reach the Great Wei capital.

Who would have thought that this Great Wei would actually win over a Return to One Realm Martial Artist, causing the situation to instantly reverse? The situation ahead would now be unfavorable for their White Lotus Sect.

"Sect Leader, what should we do next?"

The White Lotus Sect's Holy Mother, Miao Yiren, turned to look at Wusheng and began to ask.

The people in the great hall also looked at Wusheng one after another, because his next decision would affect their future destiny.

"From now on, the White Lotus Sect will disperse, go underground, and develop in secret. Do not focus on one place; just wait for the right moment!"

Wusheng was silent for a moment before speaking helplessly. Ever since Great Wei gained an extra Return to One Realm Martial Artist, their White Lotus Sect uprising had already failed.

Continuing further would only increase casualties in vain; it was simply not worth it.

"Sect Leader is wise!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the White Lotus Sect all showed expressions of joy; they were really afraid that Wusheng would make some irrational choice.
