Chapter 450 Dragon and Snake Essence Blood: A New Idea to Repay the Stolen Silver
Chapter 450 Dragon and Snake Essence Blood: A New Idea to Repay the Stolen Silver
The atmosphere in Baorentang was extremely tense at this moment.
Bai Zhenniang was mentally prepared when Chu Danqing came to her door, but she still felt awkward when she actually faced him.
"I won't pursue the matter of you getting away," Chu Danqing said calmly, "but isn't it a bit unfair of you to immediately accuse me of stealing treasury silver and make me a scapegoat?"
"If you don't give me an explanation today, hmph!" Chu Danqing snorted coldly, unsheathing his Great Treasure Claws, which were filled with the power of bloodlust.
The meaning is clear: if you don't give it to us, we'll kill you.
"This matter...this matter is my fault," Bai Zhenniang quickly said. "Please forgive me, brother-in-law."
"No, no more brother-in-law and sister-in-law, we have no relationship whatsoever." Chu Danqing immediately denied it: "Go ahead and say it."
"Young Master Chu, this is indeed a misunderstanding," Xu Jingnian quickly said. "The Prefect had a grudge against my late father-in-law, which is why..."
Before Xu Jingnian could speak, Chu Danqing glared at him, and a burst of the Nine Dragon Souls' pressure instantly erupted, making Xu Jingnian tremble with fear.
Chu Danqing didn't believe Bai Zhenniang's words that were meant to fool Xu Jingnian.
Father-in-law? Bai Zhenniang's father died long ago.
The so-called explanation is nothing more than making a statement.
We're all old foxes, so let's not play the ghost story game.
So be it. Chu Danqing won't immediately break off relations in order to expose the truth. It's just a matter of seeing your sincerity.
If they continue to use deceptive rhetoric, Chu Danqing will really have to take action.
Bai Zhenniang also realized this, and could only say, "I have heard that essence blood can make up for congenital deficiencies. Da Bai has congenital deficiencies. I remember there is an essence blood Ganoderma in the Western Sea that can make up for them."
“If Young Master Chu does not mind, I can write a letter to the Western Sea on your behalf. I have a friend there who will give you this essence blood spirit mushroom.”
It's very simple. If this matter can't be resolved peacefully, then we'll just send it away.
"When?" Chu Danqing asked immediately.
He understood Bai Zhenniang's meaning: she was prepared to use her own blood essence as an explanation.
After giving it to Chu Danqing, you go your way, and I'll go mine.
The two sides should not meet again.
Chu Danqing had the same idea: to stay away from Bai Zhenniang, and preferably never see her again.
"I'll write it now," Bai Zhenniang said, and asked Biqing'er to bring paper, ink, brush and inkstone. She immediately wrote a letter in a long and flowing style and sealed it with wax.
The content here is actually a smokescreen, using illusion to deceive Xu Jingnian.
The actual content was to tell Chu Danqing what time and where to wait for her that night.
"I wonder if Young Master Chu is satisfied?" Bai Zhenniang handed the letter to Chu Danqing.
After Chu Danqing accepted it, Da Bao also withdrew his claws and dispelled his Blood Rage power.
"Let me get it first." Chu Danqing paused after saying that, then added, "Treat others with sincerity, that is the right way."
"You'd better take care of yourself."
To be honest, Bai Zhenniang's actions ultimately harmed herself.
If they're coming for revenge, then scheming and deception are naturally no problem.
But you came here to repay a debt of gratitude, and all that happened before is still fresh in your mind. Yet Bai Zhenniang still goes her own way and uses all sorts of means, which will only lead to her own destruction.
She not only harmed Xu Jingnian, but also herself.
The Five Ghosts are a prime example.
After saying that, Chu Danqing left directly.
Xu Jingnian hesitated, wanting to say something but ultimately couldn't bring himself to say it.
After leaving, Chu Danqing found an inn and went out when the time came.
Bai Zhenniang and Bi Qing'er had been waiting for a long time.
Bai Zhenniang's face was deathly pale at this moment, obviously because of the extraction of her essence and blood.
"Young Master Chu, now that you have the items, please do not disturb my husband and me again in the future." Bai Zhenniang handed a jade bottle to Chu Danqing.
Chu Danqing took it and glanced at its attributes.
[Dragon and Snake Essence Blood]
[Type: Material]
【Quality: Brilliant】
[Effect 1: Refining the weapon activates the Nine-Headed Soul Devouring attribute (9% chance to trigger 8 additional phantom attacks when attacking)]
【Effect 2: When forging armor, it grants the equipment affix "Rebirth of the Metamorphosis" (can transfer fatal damage to the molting puppet once per month)】
【Effect 3: When used as a material for drawing formations, it will always summon a projection of Xiang Liu or the White Dragon to assist in battle (lasts 10 minutes)】
[Effect 4: Soaking in venom to create Bipolar Dragon Tincture (within 24 hours after consumption, the damage from methamphetamine can be converted between the two)]
【Effect 5: Enchant book-type spell equipment, increasing the range of all water/poison skills by 200%】
【Effect 6: When used on dragon or snake bloodlines, it forcibly induces bloodline transformation (50% chance of advancement / 50% chance of bloodline collapse)】
"It's not what I wanted, but I'll take it." Chu Danqing planned to use it as compensation for her reputation and to cover her high blood pressure medical expenses.
It is a material, but it cannot be used to obtain bloodline; at most, it can only be used as a material resource to enhance bloodline.
Bai Zhenniang hadn't expected this explanation, leaving her unsure of what to do next.
She even gave him her essence and blood, but it turned out not to be what Chu Danqing wanted, so she had no other way to resolve the situation.
To be honest, Chu Danqing was also at a loss when faced with this situation.
We can't really kill Bai Zhenniang, can we? Although she's a bit of a swindler, she doesn't eat people or do evil, so it's not like we should just kill her. Besides, even if we did kill her, given her strength, the most we could get is a Brilliant-level treasure chest with shimmering patterns.
Unlocking the other party's bloodline? Don't even think about it. You can tell the upper limit just by looking at the quality of the dragon and snake essence blood.
Unless it's a treasure chest of destiny, there's no way to obtain a bloodline.
At this point, Chu Danqing was also in a situation he couldn't handle.
"Didn't you say you could do it?" Chu Danqing asked.
Bai Zhenniang could only awkwardly reply, "There will definitely be no problem after becoming an immortal, but I haven't become an immortal yet."
Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing realized that he was being given empty promises.
"Fine, I'll figure it out myself." Chu Danqing sighed. "From now on, you go your way and I'll go mine."
"I still want to warn you: treat people with sincerity. You've come here to repay a debt of gratitude."
"And don't do anything wrong, or if I find out, I'll kill you right away."
"Secondly, you have seven days to return the stolen items at their equivalent value, or don't blame me for being impolite," Chu Danqing warned the other party.
Bai Zhenniang quickly said, "Young Master Chu, don't worry, I'll use all the profits from the pharmacy to pay back the debts."
"You know it yourself, that's good." Chu Danqing could tell that Bai Zhenniang only remembered the first and last sentences, and hadn't really paid attention to the two sentences in the middle.
Chu Danqing added, "Don't think that you're the only one who can use divination. I will use divination to confirm this in seven days."
"If you fail to do so, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
Chu Danqing naturally wouldn't believe everything the other party said; he would definitely conduct further divination to confirm the truth later.
However, he did not intend to seek out Yang Qianyuan. He had said that he would only contact Yang Qianyuan when he could no longer defeat him, which involved certain schemes.
Therefore, Chu Danqing planned to seek help from Zen Master Wende.
As for those who are unwilling, that's simple, just find someone else.
There will always be someone who can't stand it and is willing to help.
If there are none, then Chu Danqing will have to seriously re-examine this trial world.
Seeing Chu Danqing leave directly, Bi Qing'er was somewhat indignant: "Madam, this person really has a big mouth. He keeps saying 'no' and 'other,' does he really think he's a celestial being descended to earth?"
"You must not underestimate this person." Bai Zhenniang knew her own family and knew her own background.
Even if Chu Danqing himself is unremarkable, his connections and network of relationships alone are extraordinary.
"I have used my Yin-Yang divination to see the origin of the spirit, but I cannot see its origin. I only know that it is protected by nine dragon souls and accompanied by five auspicious omens."
“This kind of person is no ordinary person,” Bai Zhenniang said.
If she weren't someone she couldn't afford to offend, why would Bai Zhenniang sacrifice her own life essence?
Fortunately, Chu Danqing stopped interfering with her, which is a good thing.
"Such a powerful background?" Bi Qing'er was startled when she heard this.
She thought he was just some nobody who had come to seek refuge with her wife, but she never expected him to be so capable.
"It's not just that, you wouldn't believe me even if I told you more." Bai Zhenniang felt a headache coming on, but thankfully she managed to get rid of the other party.
Seeing Bi Qing'er's appearance, Bai Zhenniang immediately said, "Stay away from him, lest he kill you one day."
"This man endured again and again for the sake of the truth, and I think he has reached his limit."
"If you go again, he will be wary of me but will not consider you."
She could tell that Bi Qing'er had some ulterior motives, so she was worried that Bi Qing'er would be ungrateful and go to Chu Danqing.
If she gets killed in the end, she won't know how to get revenge, even if she wants to.
“Madam, I have no such intention.” Bi Qing’er dared not provoke this fierce god, and then asked, “But Madam, where are we going to earn so much money to pay back?”
"We can't keep robbing Peter to pay Paul."
She phrased it euphemistically, but it was actually theft.
“I have already made a plan,” Bai Zhenniang said. “We just need to sell off the moldy medicinal herbs in the warehouse.”
As they were talking, Bai Zhenniang took out a gourd and handed it to Biqing'er.
"You shall take the contents of this gourd and spread them far and wide."
"If you see a garden of melons, fruits, vegetables, or a well or water tank, you can disperse."
"But do not spill it into the Guantang River in the distance, lest passing merchants be contaminated," Bai Zhenniang instructed.
Bi Qing'er took the gourd and immediately rode the cloud to do as instructed.
This gourd doesn't contain medicine; it's the black water that Bai Zhenniang vomited after drinking the nectar given to her by the Golden Mother.
The black water was originally formed from her thousand-year-old poisonous gas, which she used to hold in a gourd for fear of harming living beings.
The toxicity has dissipated by 99% today, and it will probably turn into clear water soon.
However, Chu Danqing said that she had returned the stolen silver and even set a time limit, so Bai Zhenniang had no choice but to borrow it.
Even if an ordinary person gets infected, it won't harm their life or body; they will recover in three to five days at most.
She would cast a spell on those moldy medicinal herbs, which would then be sold as an antidote, and she would receive a sum of money to repay the debt.
"It seems that the Queen Mother had already planned this, which is why I vomited after drinking the nectar."
Chu Danqing's decision to have her return the stolen silver was considered a solution.
"Just make sure there are no more complications." Bai Zhenniang made a divination with her sleeve, but the result was not clear.
I expect Bi Qing'er will not make any mistakes.
