Chapter 473
Of course, William was also a little nervous.
If Su Fan had wanted to, he could have obtained political and financial resources of the same or even higher level in the United States, but he didn't.
It is highly likely that he himself does not covet these things.
Just as Su Fan had said before.
William has revealed his hand and gone all in; if that doesn't work, the meeting will be a complete failure.
"I have accepted your commission."
After a long wait, the reply from the other end brought William a surge of joy.
He didn't care about royal image or restraint, and jumped up from the sofa.
"It's a deal, I look forward to cooperating with you."
He looked down and saw that Harry on the ground had also exhausted himself and fainted. Without saying much, he picked up his good-for-nothing brother, said a quick goodbye, and hurriedly went out to tell his grandmother the good news.
After the two left, Alice looked at Su Fan with considerable confusion.
"The favors of the British royal family don't seem to be that important to you, do they?"
"Also, your injuries haven't fully healed. Why did you agree to their request?"
"You're wrong. Royal connections are more valuable than those of the Prime Minister. At least that's the case in Britain."
In the short term, the Queen may seem to be able to do less than the Prime Minister who holds real power, but after a few years, when the current Prime Minister becomes the former Prime Minister, you will know what it means to have a changing Prime Minister but an unchanging Queen.
One of the most important reasons why Su Fan never wanted to get involved with the government was the fickle nature of countries with multiple ruling parties.
Especially leaders; their promises are practically worthless.
This ability to lie without batting an eye was honed during the election campaign.
In contrast, the royal family seems to pay a little more attention to their image, and is less likely to go back on their word.
"Besides, who said I was going to personally take action this time?"
Alice was taken aback.
"So you're planning to sell talismans? This time the price should be higher, right?"
The core technology of the talismans used to ward off evil spirits is in Su Fan's hands, and others cannot master it even if they want to imitate it.
As Su Fan's strength increased, the power of the talismans also rose accordingly.
Alice believed that the key to making money was to immediately drive up the price of this treasure, which was equivalent to giving someone a second life.
Su Fan, however, simply smiled and remained silent, refusing to agree.
Alice guessed that Su Fan's move was to take care of ordinary people who were truly in trouble but were not wealthy.
But this time was different; they were doing business with one of the most prestigious old money families on Earth, and the latter were at a disadvantage in negotiations.
It wouldn't make sense not to take this opportunity to raise prices.
Alice guessed wrong again this time.
"I don't plan to sell talismans either."
Seeing Su Fan slowly shake his head again, Alice was stunned. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt something was wrong and clutched her stomach.
"Ouch, boss, my stomach hurts."
"Stop joking, how could a vampire have a stomachache?"
"I need to rest for a while because of the anti-aging pills I've been taking."
"No need for all that trouble, come here and I'll treat you."
Alice knew she couldn't escape it, so she lowered her hand, put on a pained face, and spoke pitifully.
"Boss, I don't want to go."
She crouched down next to Su Fan's sofa, peeking out with her large, watery eyes blinking, trying to win his favor and get her to cancel her business trip. In fact, Alice's appearance, combined with her almost perfect, elfin beauty, was extremely alluring.
Unless the other person is blind, even if you are a woman, you can't help but feel pity for her.
"I didn't expect you to resort to charm to avoid the business trip. Not only that, you even used your mental power to enhance the charm effect. Well done."
Su Fan seemed quite satisfied with Alice's performance, but quickly changed the subject.
"But that cannot be a reason for you to be absent from work."
"Go ahead and try to solve the problem using what you've just learned."
"Okay, boss."
Alice answered listlessly, then went back inside to tidy up her things.
This operation is fraught with uncertainty and its timing is unpredictable. Reluctance is one thing, but failing to prepare properly is tantamount to risking one's life.
Upon seeing this, Su Fan withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes again.
Just as he had planned, he entrusted many exorcisms or other matters to Alice or other members of the antique shop.
Given his current size, he can no longer rush to various places to slay demons and monsters as he used to.
William and Harry were saved because the curse had followed them all the way to the area where Su Fan was.
Those worthless ghosts and their power melted away like snow the moment they came into contact with Su Fan's aura.
With his cultivation approaching the Golden Core stage, his adherence to the righteous path, and his top-notch character, Su Fan was like a blazing sun to weak evil spirits.
Let alone touching it, even spying on it will end in self-immolation.
Given the commotion he caused in central London, if he were to make a move, all the extraordinary beings in the city would be on edge, seeing threats everywhere.
This applies to humans and all other beings.
This was not wishful thinking, but the reality he had observed when he and Ron went to Mayfair to separate the family business.
"Alright."
The British royal commission was neither too big nor too small, and it was just right for Alice to use as a trial.
He has other things to do.
Su Fan got up and went to his bedroom, took off his shoes and socks, pulled back the covers and lay down on the bed.
He began to recall his previous experience in the building where his consciousness separated from his body and he appeared on an island thousands of miles away.
Chen Wujiu's intention was to use the distorted senses and overwhelming information to make Su Fan make the wrong judgment and buy time.
The specific methods used by the former are still unknown.
But Su Fan had a similar experience before, and it was that experience that led him to set foot on this land.
Su Fan is now attempting to enter a similar state through the Dream Marriage technique, and once again travel to that southern island as an ideology to gather more crucial information.
however……
"Failed."
About an hour later, Su Fan slowly opened his eyes, his brows furrowed.
Due to its dangerous nature and extremely strong backlash, Dream Marriage is a supernatural ability that he rarely practices.
But surely it shouldn't be to the point where it can't even start.
The only explanation is that the island is forcibly sealed off by some entity, and no external detection methods can be effective unless permission is granted.
Chen Wujiu would not do anything futile.
This sorcerer, a blend of calmness and madness, is an extreme utilitarian.
Those who force themselves to learn Taoist magic through combat and Buddhist philosophy through philosophical reasoning may become followers of unknown evil gods in order to enhance their power.
That island couldn't possibly be a location he chose at random. If he really had the ability to temporarily project Su Fan to any region, wouldn't it be more convenient to just throw him into the dark and silent universe?
