162: Chapter 162 You still have to rely on yourself for everything

This really made it seem like I wasn't going to get a single cent!

I can't... actually tear up the ticket, right?

Thinking of this, the anger in his heart flared up instantly.

Without another word, he rushed into the Immortal Cave, grabbed Gu Shuangshuang, who was still sleeping in bed, and delivered two resounding slaps to her backside.

"Ouch! What are you doing?!" Gu Shuangshuang woke up in pain, complaining with sleepy eyes.

"Are all you bandits this rude?"

"Rude your sister!" Chun Xiaobai roared in anger. "If you make me lose money, you're going to have to pay me back today!"

"What do you mean?" Gu Shuangshuang asked, looking confused.

Chun Xiaobai immediately explained his get-rich-quick scheme and the entire process of how she had ruined it from beginning to end.

After listening, Gu Shuangshuang stuck out her tongue playfully. "Oh, why didn't you say so earlier! If I had known you wanted them to fight each other like dogs, I wouldn't have used that tactic."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Shuangshuang had grown up in a Sect, after all, and her father was the Sect Master. She was well-traveled and knowledgeable; her perspective was naturally not something a wild amateur like Chun Xiaobai could compare to.

"It's mainly because Qin Ruoxue's status is too high. They were already suspicious and misunderstanding each other, and your price demand just made them snap."

"Uh!"

Chun Xiaobai was choked up by her words. Listening to this, was she blaming This Great King for having a narrow perspective?

He might be inferior to this woman in other areas, but when it came to the high ground of getting rich, if he, Chun Xiaobai, dared to claim second place, no one in the entire Immortal Realm would dare to claim first!

"Enough nonsense! Just tell me, what exactly is that Emperor Pavilion thing?"

Chun Xiaobai asked impatiently.

Gu Shuangshuang was so startled upon hearing this that she quickly covered his mouth.

"Keep your voice down! Let me tell you, the experts of the Emperor Pavilion have ears that can hear from ten thousand miles away; they can hear your disrespectful words from that far off!"

"Expert ears, my foot. I even have clairvoyant eyes." Chun Xiaobai rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.

"You, with clairvoyant eyes?" Gu Shuangshuang shot him a disdainful look.

"Damn it! My eyes are extraordinary to begin with, okay!"

Chun Xiaobai muttered, too lazy to explain his Tongbao Divine Eye to this brainless woman.

Gu Shuangshuang lowered her voice and said, "I don't know the specific origins of the Emperor Pavilion, only that they were born to slay demons. Wherever demons run rampant, their figures can be found."

"It's just that the demons in our Eastern Region were long since wiped out by them, yet they still won't leave. It's like a sky hanging over the heads of all the Sects in our entire Eastern Region..."

After listening, Chun Xiaobai stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

Doesn't this so-called Emperor Pavilion sound just like city management?

Not only do they manage the Sects of the Righteous Path, but they also catch petty Devil Head thieves.

Wait, no!

He suddenly remembered someone.

It was that crazy woman who kicked him into the Immortal Realm all those years ago!

When she left, he clearly remembered that the woman had left behind one sentence: "Every place you can see on this road is my territory!"

"Damn it!"

"Could that crazy woman be the daughter of the Emperor Pavilion Master?!"

"Hiss!"

Thinking of this, Chun Xiaobai was suddenly shocked.

That crazy woman had declared that he must reach Core Formation within ten years!

With his gluttonous Physique, if he didn't rely on swindling, robbing, and looting, let alone Core Formation, even Qi Refining would be difficult. He would be slapped to death by that woman sooner or later!

No, no, he had to make money quickly!

Even if he couldn't reach Core Formation, at the very least he had to gain enough strength to leave this Eastern Region!

As long as he left her territory, he would be free as a bird.

I don't believe you'll be able to find This Great King!

"Enough! You stay here and behave yourself for me!"

Chun Xiaobai decided that he still had to follow his own plans; he couldn't listen to this woman's terrible ideas anymore.

If she hadn't messed things up just now, and if he had stuck to a reasonable price, this deal would have been done already!

Now, it was a mess; he had scared those two groups of guys, and things had gotten out of hand.

He really regretted it now; he regretted listening to this spendthrift woman's bad ideas.

Sure enough, you have to rely on yourself for everything!

This woman was at best a slightly knowledgeable evil cultivator, but what was he?

He was a professional Mountain King!

He was the future Ancestral Master of the bandit world!

Thinking of this, Chun Xiaobai told Gu Shuangshuang to stay obediently in the cave, while he walked out of the cave with a dark face and long strides.

As soon as he came out, Bai Jiner nervously approached him, stretching her neck and secretly peeking into the cave.

It seemed she wanted to see something.

"What are you looking at?" Chun Xiaobai asked curiously.

He had noticed that this Third Leader had been acting mysterious lately, making him feel a bit uneasy.

"N-nothing!"

Bai Jiner quickly shook her head, then put on a worried expression and asked in a low voice.

"Great King, then... what should we do next?"

"If they really start fighting, this Wanling Mountain might end up becoming a battlefield!"

"Great, this woman wants to advise This Great King to run away again!"

Chun Xiaobai was so angry he didn't even want to talk to her.

If it weren't for the fact that he needed people right now, he would have fired this woman who spent all day spreading negative energy, disrupting morale, and being a killjoy.

To make an example of her!

"Rest assured, with This Great King here, even if the sky falls, it won't hurt you!"

Chun Xiaobai replied impatiently.

Then, ignoring her, he walked to the edge of the cave entrance and sat down, pulled out two communication Talismans, and began to revise the prices.

This time, he wouldn't be greedy, but he couldn't be too stingy, right?

He thought for a moment and directly changed fifty Heaven Rank Magic Treasure items to five;

one hundred million Spirit Stone to ten million;

as for the remaining Medicinal Pill, Talisman, and Spirit Medicine, he waved his brush and gave a twenty percent discount.

After finishing, he handed the two communication Talismans to Fang Yuan and Xiao Zhang respectively, and urged them repeatedly.

"Be smart this time. If you can get someone else to deliver it, do it. Don't go sticking your necks out!"

Before, he was certain the other side wouldn't dare to fight to the death, but now it was different; those two groups had already drawn their weapons, and who knew when they might accidentally set things off.

If these two guys had bad luck and ran into the line of fire, they might very well be slaughtered on the spot to vent anger.

"Don't worry, Boss! As the Second-in-Command and Fourth-in-Command of Black Wind Stronghold, we will definitely handle this matter for you properly!"

Fang Yuan and Xiao Zhang patted their chests with a "thumping" sound, looking ready to face death.

After patting their chests, the two looked at each other, turned into two streaks of light, flew out of the cave over the cliff, hid their tracks, and sped off in two different directions.
