Chapter 754 We're Poor Together
Chapter 754 We're all poor
Huang Yue clenched her fists. "You!"
Although the manager mocked Huang Yue, he did not show the same hostility as Lin Zhao: "Young Master Huang Yue, you are willing but powerless. The Heavenly Phoenix Clan will eventually decline if left in your hands. It would be better to step down and give the position of Young Master to Young Master Qu Shu."
Huang Qing coldly replied, "It's none of our business to interfere in the affairs of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan."
Huang Yue took a breath, glanced at Lin Zhao whose face showed no anger, and felt Lin Zhao's calm aura. She unconsciously let out a sigh of relief, and her expression became more composed. She said to the manager, "You are right. I am indeed willing but unable, so Huang Yue is no longer the young master of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan."
The manager's furrowed brows finally relaxed a bit upon seeing the three: "Oh? The Heavenly Phoenix Clan is finally willing to change your corrupt system? It seems I'll have to go and congratulate Young Master Qu Shu another day."
Huang Qing crossed her arms: "You're wrong, the current young master is right in front of you."
The manager's gaze fell on Huang Qing, and he sighed deeply, his expression complicated: "I never expected that you would be chosen as the young master. It seems that each generation is worse than the last."
Huang Qing: "..."
"Fine, at least you have some backbone. It's a pity that you're the young master. The Phoenix Clan will only be doomed in the Northern Region Competition. Alright, alright, take the mission and hurry up and find someone. But you're going to die sooner or later anyway."
He didn't spare Lin Zhao even a glance.
Lin Zhao was completely ignored.
The administrator, intending to humiliate the noble-blooded yet timid Heavenly Phoenix, couldn't help but sneer as he watched her slender hand reach for the jade plaque wall behind him. He stretched out his large hand, trying to grab the Heavenly Phoenix's wrist: "Overestimating yourself!"
How could a pampered young lady who has always been protected by the Phoenix Clan possibly enter the ancient battlefield, a place where death is a near certainty?
But to his surprise, before his hand even touched the woman's seemingly slender and delicate wrist, he was rendered immobile by an invisible sense of oppression.
This oppressive force was so subtle that he couldn't even feel it unless he offended the Heavenly Phoenix.
He was already a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and only those powerful beings at the Immortal King level could give him this feeling.
The manager looked around warily and said, "I wonder which esteemed member of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan has descended upon this place? Is this young lady one of your descendants?"
Lin Zhao, in his tense state, removed the jade token for a Class B mission.
When he noticed Lin Zhao's actions, he no longer cared that this delicate young lady had a Celestial King protecting her, and he cursed, "Go back to your Heavenly Phoenix Clan if you want to go crazy! Do you think this is some kind of fun place?! Even if your Heavenly Phoenix Clan still has a Celestial Emperor, under the rules of the Upper Three Realms, you cannot violate the rules of my Evil-Slaying Alliance!"
The Evil Slaying Alliance is an alliance that all forces in the Upper Realm must join in response to evil thoughts from other worlds. It is jointly managed by several hegemonic forces in the central domain. The management and rewards/punishments for various measures and battles against evil thoughts from other worlds in the Upper Realm are also implemented through the unified management of this alliance.
The staff members in the alliance do indeed hold a respectable position in the Upper Realm, and even powerful members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan are not allowed to kill them without authorization.
Lin Zhao chuckled as he tossed the pale blue jade token in his hand, "What's there to be nervous about? Your rules are that taking off the jade token means you've accepted the mission, right? I'll accept this mission."
The administrator was enraged by Lin Zhao's words: "How utterly ridiculous! Do you think this is child's play? How many ancestors have sacrificed themselves in the battle against the evil thoughts from another world over thousands of years, only to be insulted like this by you?!"
"You'd better speak more politely to me, the young master of the Phoenix Clan." Huang Yue frowned, holding down the manager to prevent him from saying anything more unpleasant.
This wasn't entirely to protect Lin Zhao; she also wanted to prevent the administrator from provoking Lin Zhao. After all, although she believed Lin Zhao wouldn't be so ruthless as to act violently over a few words, the administrator's repeated provocations of a Celestial King were tantamount to courting death.
The manager was stunned by Huang Yue's words. He looked at Lin Zhao, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
Finally, he smirked, "The Phoenix Clan... is truly doomed."
Having said that, he ignored the jade pendant Lin Zhao had taken off: "That's a lower-level B-grade mission. Even though it's lower-level, you still need at least the combat power of a Celestial King to accept it. Give it to me now, and I'll put it up."
Lin Zhao shook his head: "Since I've taken it off, I'm naturally qualified to take on this task."
"How arrogant!" The manager was furious and stopped trying to stop them. He quickly registered their information, tossed three tokens to the three women, and gave them a Qiankun bag: "Take these and get out of here! Don't come here pretending to be strong when you don't have the ability!" "These are entrance tokens," Huang Qing said to Lin Zhao after receiving the token.
Lin Zhao took the token from Huang Qing and said, "Let's go. Once inside, try not to stray too far from me."
Huang Qing and Huang Yue nodded and followed Lin Zhao into the entrance.
Lin Zhao walked ahead, opened his Qiankun bag, and found several black longswords inside.
"It's the Demon-Slaying Sword, and the quality is quite good," Huang Yue said after glancing at it.
Lin Zhao smiled.
When Huang Qing saw those demon-slaying swords, her initial resentment towards the administrators became somewhat complicated.
“Young Master, look at this thing…” Huang Qing subconsciously looked at Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao put away the Qiankun bag and took out a stack of talismans from his ring. "If you encounter an evil spirit from another world with a cultivation level below the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, about three talismans will be enough to take it down. There are about fifty of them here."
These talismans were researched by Lin Zhao before, originally intended to catch the otherworldly evil thoughts at the Immortal King level off guard in battle. However, Lin Zhao's cultivation had not yet broken through to the Immortal King level at that time, and after discarding thousands of talismans, he barely managed to make a semi-finished product.
After the semi-finished product was produced, Lin Zhao realized that there were no Immortal Kings in the lower realm, nor any otherworldly evil thoughts at the level of Immortal Kings for him to experiment with. He could only put the rough talisman away. Although these remaining semi-finished products could not withstand otherworldly evil thoughts at the level of Immortal Kings, it would not be a problem to severely injure a few Great Luo Golden Immortals.
Lin Zhao didn't find many opportunities to use these talismans in the lower realm, but when he arrived at the ancient battlefield in the upper realm, he thought that these things could be separated and used by the Tianhuang clan.
As for her, evil thoughts from other worlds below the level of Immortal King are something she can crush with a flick of her wrist. If Lin Zhao had any strength, she wouldn't use talismans to fight.
This talisman, which was somewhat useless to Lin Zhao, was no less than a divine artifact to Huang Qing and Huang Yue.
"This... thank you very much, young master!"
As a direct descendant of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, Huang Qing had seen many fine things even though the Heavenly Phoenix Clan had declined, but she still cherished the talisman given to her by Lin Zhao.
After all, there are things in the upper realm that can kill evil thoughts from other realms, but they all have one thing in common—they are expensive.
With the current financial resources of the Phoenix Clan, purchasing these things is simply a stretch.
After learning this from Huang Qing and Huang Yue, Lin Zhao seemed to remember something: "Is it also in the Upper Realm that spirit stones are used for trading?"
Huang Yue said, "No, only some backward places accept spirit stones. The common currency in the Upper Realm is immortal stones."
Lin Zhao: "..."
It felt unfamiliar. Luckily, when I asked for a guide before, I paid with gifts instead of using spirit stones, otherwise people would have laughed at me.
However, Lin Zhao didn't have a single Immortal Stone on him.
Lin Zhao, who had suddenly become penniless again, realized his mistake. "Is the Heavenly Phoenix Clan not wealthy either?"
Although Huang Qing wanted to deny it, she found it hard to shake her head because of the dire situation of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.
"What a terrible thing to do." Lin Zhao sighed, rubbing her forehead.
Aren't we all becoming poor together?
