The excitement that the three felt in their hearts was almost perverted…’Haha, Young Master, when you rise up in the future, you will definitely be a great, mighty, and powerful figure who could shock the world!’
At the same time, Lu Jiu Que was secretly full of joy, too. These silver needles were simply too useful. She was genuinely feeling unexpectedly delighted.
This feeling, it was as if the needles were her hands, legs, and eyes. They could easily accomplish things that she didn’t even imagine doing before. Perhaps by relying on these needles, her medical skills could advance to another level!
Upon seeing that the young masters and ladies of the Qing Yan Empire were no longer crying and howling, Lu Jiu Que gathered the ecstatic emotions in her heart, turned to General Ye, and said, “General Ye, they’re fine. You just have to feed them each a pill that will replenish their Star Soul Power, and that will allow them to take the test without a hitch.”
“Yes! Yes! Thank you so much, Young Master!”
Lu Jiu Que shook her head and then turned to look at Master Lei again. Looking somewhat distressed, she said, “Master Lei, your spiritual tool has a contract with me, so there’s no way I can return it to you. I’m so sorry. I don’t know what price…”
The three men froze. Lu Jiu Que actually wanted to pay up?!
What a joke. How could Master Lei possibly accept her money?!
If, say, right at the beginning, Master Lei had helped Lu Jiu Que refine the tool because he was taking into account Shopkeeper Yue, General Ye, and Lu Jiu Que’s identities, then now, he was completely tamed into submission by her exceptionally abnormal talent.
When a once-in-a-lifetime genius used a spiritual tool that he had refined, it simply meant he had a living advertisement working for him.
With this young master gaining exposure for his work, business would definitely roll in endlessly in the future!
Master Lei might have seemed to carry the airs of a gangster and sported a beard, in truth, he was essentially a thief at heart. Immediately, he said, “No need, no need. You designed these silver needles, and the material was provided by Old Yue. I, Old Lei, merely showed my hand at refining tools. It was no trouble at all. There’s no need to pay me. Hahahaha!”
General Ye also took a step forward immediately and said, “Young Master, there’s no need for more words. You were willing to cure the people of our Qing Yan Empire for free, so naturally, I, General Ye, will bear all expenses related to this treatment! Please, Young Master, you must accept this set of grade-two spiritual tools. As for Brother Lei and Brother Yue, just let me take care of things here. That will do.”
“No need, no need…” Shopkeeper Yue’s heart fell with a thump. He, too, smiled and shook his head as he said, “This material will be my gift to this young man. We all have to thank you, Young Master, for being so generous with your advice and teachings. How could I possibly accept General Ye’s money?”
The moment his words came to an end, three pairs of eyes swept back and forth rapidly as they looked widely at each other. A blustering and aggressive tension was building up and spreading through the surrounding area. They seemed ready to jump at each other’s throats. Even the young masters and ladies who were still in comatose states were long forgotten by these three men.
Hmm, at this point in time, they had to try their best to compete for the young man’s favor. If not now, then when?!
Master Lei narrowed his eyes and gave a toothy grin. “No, no, no, let me do it!”
—I was the one who refined this tool. Young Master had to thank me for it!
Shopkeeper Yue hypocritically put on a shallow smile and said, “No need, no need, let me do it!”
—I was the one who invited this young master here. You were only here as a sidekick!
General Ye was persistent in not backing off and insisted, “Don’t, don’t, don’t. Young Master is here to help the Qing Yan Empire. Just let me do it, and that’ll be it!”
—What are the two of you b*tching about? Young Master was here to help me out!
…
Three old men of noble status were all turning red in the face as they fought against each other in the heat of the moment. They were even thinking of throwing crystal coins to beat each other to death.
Darn!
‘I have money. This young master is mine. All of you, just scram!’ thought each one.
There was no way to reach a compromise. Even if these three people were usually uncompromising men who stood by their words, they still wished they could be the one to do Lu Jiu Que a special favor in order to establish a close relationship with her.
They would even uproot each other’s ancestors who were already six feet under!
How could any of them let go of the golden opportunity to form an acquaintance with a super rarity?!
