Dense spiritual light shot up into the sky.
Pure and vast spiritual energy surged, instantly connecting heaven and earth, even causing a "spiritual tide."
Whoosh!
Gusts of "spiritual wind" swept through.
Holy cow!
"True Man Zhi Chang" felt his 24k titanium alloy dog eyes were about to be blinded.
Blinded, blinded, I'm really going to be blinded!
This "storage bag" was actually filled entirely with "high-grade spirit stones," and the quantity was terrifying to the point of disbelief.
"True Man Zhi Chang" swept it with his divine sense and found there were a hundred thousand of them.
One hundred thousand "high-grade spirit stones," that's one billion!
Holy cow!
"True Man Zhi Chang" almost jumped up in shock.
How, how is this possible?
As the Sect Master of the "Fangzhang Sword Sect," "True Man Zhi Chang," let alone one billion, had seen ten billion.
But that was the sect's funds, not his personal money.
Although he, "True Man Zhi Chang," was the Sect Master and a "Nascent Soul Ancestor," he didn't have a billion in personal cash to spend!
"True Man Zhi Chang's" assets were mostly magic treasures, elixirs, and various "heavenly materials and earthly treasures." He didn't have much cash on hand, maybe two or three hundred million at most.
And now, this unassuming rogue cultivator in front of him casually produced one billion.
It felt like meeting a beggar on the street, and the beggar, with a slight smile, suddenly produced a billion in cash.
The stark contrast left "True Man Zhi Chang" utterly shocked, his jaw almost dropping to the ground, didn't it!
"Sect Master..."
"What happened?"
"We're here!"
...
The massive "spiritual tide" worried the many "Supreme Elders" outside. They each displayed their divine abilities, shattering the two "isolation formations," and rushed over.
Everyone was worried about the safety of "True Man Zhi Chang," but when they arrived, they were stunned.
Holy cow!
As the "Supreme Elders" rushed in, a black sword light silently erupted from Yun Tian Kong's body.
The black sword light flashed and disappeared, and no one noticed anything.
This was the "emaciated black demon soul" making its move.
Then, a sound of tearing fabric was heard.
Riiiiip!
The "storage bag" in "True Man Zhi Chang's" hand shattered.
What followed was a scene that shook them to their core.
Whoosh!
Accompanied by dense spiritual light, countless "high-grade spirit stones," like the Yellow River descending from the heavens, poured out, instantly forming a small mountain.
The "Supreme Elders"
(O.O;)
Stared, dumbfounded!
The "Fangzhang Sword Sect disciples" who arrived shortly after
(O.O;)
Stared, dumbfounded!
Everyone was shocked by the scene before them.
Countless "high-grade spirit stones" piled up into a mountain, how much money was that?
Everyone's eyes were dazzled by the spiritual light, and they stood frozen, motionless.
After an unknown amount of time, a "Supreme Elder" came to his senses and stammered,
"Sect Master Brother, you, are you planning to use these spirit stones to make Young Master Yun retreat? Isn't that, isn't that a bit too much!"
In the "Supreme Elder's" mind, these spirit stones were definitely meant for "True Man Zhi Chang" to use to overwhelm Yun Tian Kong and make him retreat.
This was standard procedure!
After all, Yun Tian Kong was just a rogue cultivator, what right did he have to marry the "Fairy Hao Cai"? Just drive him away with money!
But this mountain of "high-grade spirit stones," conservatively estimated at one billion.
Was it appropriate to spend so much money to drive away a rogue cultivator like Yun Tian Kong? Was it appropriate? Was it appropriate?
Even if our "Fangzhang Sword Sect" was wealthy, we shouldn't squander it like this!
As he spoke, the "Supreme Elder's" tone carried a hint of complaint.
Sect Master Brother, you're being a little too much!
You could have easily sent this rogue cultivator away with "ten million low-grade spirit stones."
Damn it!
"True Man Zhi Chang" was furious. I'm not an idiot, why would I use one billion to drive away a rogue cultivator.
Feeling the accusatory stares of the "Supreme Elders," "True Man Zhi Chang" instinctively defended himself,
"You've misunderstood. This isn't money I'm giving to young friend Yun. It's a gift from young friend Yun to our Fangzhang Sword Sect!"
BOOM!
This statement was like dropping a "nuke" in the crowd!
The reactions of everyone were even greater than when they saw the mountain of "high-grade spirit stones."
"Impossible!"
"Sect Master Brother, you're joking, right?"
"How could a mere rogue cultivator possibly produce so many spirit stones?"
...
The "Supreme Elders" all shouted, refusing to believe it!
However, the "Fangzhang Sword Sect disciples" were more inclined to believe, and they discussed among themselves.
"Wow, Young Master Yun can produce one billion at once, he's so amazing!"
"Young Master Yun is definitely not just a rogue cultivator. He must be from some super sect, and he must be a young master!"
"Wow, a mysterious young master traveling the world, meets our prospective Saintess, and they develop a love that transcends friendship. How romantic, how beautiful!"
...
The most excited among them was "Fairy Hao Cai." Her eyes sparkled, and she looked at Yun Tian Kong with tenderness.
"Young Master Yun, you value me so much that you're willing to give one billion spirit stones as a betrothal gift to marry me. I'm so touched, so touched!"
Saying this, "Fairy Hao Cai," disregarding the world's gaze, like a joyful little bird, threw herself into Yun Tian Kong's arms.
"Shi Qin" and the other four maids
| (T_T)
It's over, it's over, we're dead this time!
As maids, they didn't look after the "prospective Saintess" properly, and the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" would definitely not let them off.
Ten thousand swords piercing the heart!
Skinning and drawing out the tendons!
Soul refinement!
...
Thinking of those inhumane punishments, the "Four Maids" couldn't help but tremble as they hugged each other.
"True Man Zhi Chang"
(╬◣д◢)
Outrageous, utterly outrageous!
In broad daylight, under the clear sky, the "Fangzhang Sword Sect's prospective Saintess" is embracing a man. If this gets out, the "Fangzhang Sword Sect" will lose all face!
I have failed our ancestors!
"Ahem..."
"True Man Zhi Chang" coughed twice, clearing his throat. He felt that he had to do something at this moment and couldn't let the situation escalate further.
A sharp glint flashed in "True Man Zhi Chang's" eyes. He thought of a brilliant plan to "smash the mandarin ducks." He immediately said in a deep voice,
"Young friend Yun, it's not that I'm intentionally making things difficult for you. Just with this one billion spirit stones, you want to marry our Fangzhang Sword Sect's prospective Saintess? That's too stingy! I won't agree, and the entire Fangzhang Sword Sect won't agree. So, I'm sorry..."
As he said this, "True Man Zhi Chang" felt guilty himself. Yun Tian Kong's ability to produce "one billion spirit stones" at once showed great sincerity. To call it stingy would invite divine retribution!
However, for the sake of the "Fangzhang Sword Sect's" eternal foundation, "True Man Zhi Chang" resolutely chose to "turn a blind eye to the truth."
Even if I get struck by lightning, I'll accept it!
