Chapter 282 Ways to Make Money
Chapter 282 Ways to Make Money
"I've been waiting for you." Li Jiuxing continued to approach, his voice suppressed: "A hundred years is too long, no one is with me."
The next moment, Qin Baiqing only felt an aura with a strong presence enveloping her. Li Jiuxing suddenly came forward and hugged her in his arms. He held her tightly with his arms, blocking her from saying anything.
She tried to push away, but was held closer, sniffed muffledly at Jiuxing's voice, and suddenly turned into her original form and lay in Qin Baiqing's arms.
The pressure around me was gone, the touch in my arms was furry and light, I rubbed her hand harmlessly, but it didn't seem to make me feel safe.
A hundred years was not enough for the demon race to grow a lot. The current fox was almost the same as the Nine-Star prototype that Qin Baiqing had seen a hundred years ago, except that the golden hair on the forehead was purer in color, and faintly reflected pure golden light under the sunlight.
The soft and warm touch instantly dispelled all of Qin Baiqing's resistance.
Suddenly, she understood why there were such rumors in the outside world.
Li Jiuxing was grief-stricken when the Fox Emperor died. After that, he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of rebuilding Qingqiu, so it was inevitable that he felt at a loss.
Compared to the gloomy rumors outside...
Qin Baiqing hugged Li Jiuxing with heartache to comfort him, while thinking, it was not a case of possession of another's body nor a drastic change in temperament. Li Jiuxing was just forcing himself to take on the responsibility. The so-called coldness and depth were all false rumors.
"I've been in seclusion. I didn't mean to not come and play with you."
"Look, I just came to see you right after I got out. Don't be sad. No one wants you."
"Qingqiu has recovered almost as before. I know you are very powerful..." She poked Li Jiuxing's hair and comforted him with her hands on her cheeks: "Really, your cultivation is higher than mine now."
Qin Baiqing placed the small fox on the table. She sat upright so that she could look directly at the fox.
"Because of the demon pill." He swung his fluffy tail, no longer feeling the grief he once had when he mentioned the Fox Emperor: "Father preserved the demon pill very well, it was not damaged, and it contains almost all of his cultivation."
"I see... Uncle Fox seems to be really powerful." Her eyes lit up, and she leaned closer to Li Jiuxing's head and asked, "When you inherited your cultivation, did you inherit the Tao?"
"The fox clan has a common lineage, so of course there is."
Seeing Qin Baiqing's growing anticipation, Li Jiuxing's tone became more excited, and his tail hung on Qin Baiqing's legs, sweeping more happily.
He directly activated a strand of golden hair on his forehead and showed it to Qin Baiqing:
"The fox demons in Qingqiu have pure blood. They cultivate the sharp gold lineage of the Five Elements. It has been passed down for thousands of years. It is sharp and unstoppable. It is the ultimate yang in the world and is indestructible. It doesn't matter if you encounter trouble in the future. Let me kill you."
"Shh - don't kill people casually!" Qin Baiqing stopped him sternly.
At the same time, he felt the power of the five elements mobilized by Li Jiuxing.
The defense around him, which had been blessed by his mother and supported by countless imperial weapons and treasures, actually broke through the invisible and intangible golden energy hidden in the air.
As easy as a knife cutting through a piece of paper.
It was very intuitive and strong. Qin Baiqing expressed great interest.
So it was natural that, like countless times before, he began to simulate Li Jiuxing's way of mobilizing spiritual energy in his body, trying to replicate his "Tao" one-to-one.
"Zheng——"
There was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, brushing against the golden energy released by Li Jiuxing at the same time. When the two collided, an incomparable killing power instantly erupted, smashing all objects in the hall except the tables and chairs that the two were using.
But Qin Baiqing was very disappointed and said angrily: "It's far worse than yours."
Along with the defensive furnishings in the hall being shattered, the sharp golden energy released by Qin Baiqing herself was also shattered.
"Because yours is just an attack, not the Tao." "Maybe," she stood up thoughtfully, "I need to see more of other people's Tao. Now I have no idea. Maybe after seeing more, I will know what the Tao is that I should understand."
The fox jumped onto her shoulder, and Li Jiuxing squatted on her and said affectionately: "I will go with you. I can help you find your way, help you fight, and give you all the gold I like."
"Whoever refuses to cooperate with you and tell his own way, I can help you." A wisp of golden air circled around Qin Baiqing, and she let the cold murderous intent in it be driven by her.
...He seems to be a bit of a bad student now, Qin Baiqing thought silently.
She pushed away the golden energy, put Li Jiuxing back steadily, and said seriously: "You are now the head of Qingqiu's family. You can't talk about fighting and killing casually. Be calm and pay attention to your reputation and image."
People outside are spreading the rumor that Li Jiuxing is a brutal and dark madman.
"My reputation and image are not as important as you, why should I care?" Li Jiuxing blurted out as if it was a matter of course, "If my reputation can't allow me to protect you, then there is no meaning in my existence."
"You..." After Qin Baiqing said "you you you" a few times, she was shocked by his almost instinctive attitude and was speechless. Her heart seemed to be hit hard and was beating in panic.
She lowered her head and bit her lower lip in confusion, feeling a little broken inside.
In the end, he still couldn't sort out his thoughts, so he simply fled away, warning Li Jiuxing from a distance: "Don't follow me!"
"Don't do bad things again!"
They almost ran all the way and soon arrived at Tongbo Sect.
After entering the territory of Tongbo Sect, Qin Baiqing finally received a reply from Feng Budu.
She was told to wait for three days and Feng Budu would come to meet her. There was no other news, so Qin Baiqing had no choice but to wander around the city bored, but she would stop after every two steps.
The news about the auction house was spreading all around, and the crowd was crowded and noisy. Only Qin Baiqing looked puzzled.
She felt familiar with the situation and went straight to the back of the auction house. She actually found Situ Fusheng, who was fanning himself and counting treasures. She asked in confusion, "This is the territory of the Tongbo Sect. Why did you open a store here?"
Is there any collusion with them?
"Why are you here?" Situ Fusheng asked subconsciously, then laughed and said, "I have opened stores at the foot of almost all sects, your Xinghai Sect, Duan Family City, Demonic Sect Territory... Is there any problem?"
"Not anymore." It turns out there is no gain without pain.
Qin Baiqing put down her guard, sat down opposite him unceremoniously, and asked about her business: "What is your Tao?"
"You're asking about someone's privacy for no reason..." Situ Fusheng complained, but he immediately stretched out his hand: "Well, you know the price of information."
She reluctantly slapped away a bag of spirit stones and sat upright to listen to the lecture. Unexpectedly, Situ Fusheng took the spirit stones and smiled, "Okay, now you see my way."
"..."
After a long silence, Qin Baiqing said in a good mood: "The way to make money? Then you have practiced it very well."
"No understanding!"
Situ Fusheng let out a loud "tsk" to express his disgust, put away the spirit stones and demonstrated the transaction process to Qin Baiqing again. With just a few passes of his hands, the spirit stones and the goods were exchanged, and the whole process was open and aboveboard.
"One hand pays the other hand delivers the goods, the contract is concluded, it's a fair trade. Ordinary people can only practice to the level of art at best. They just use the trade as a means and value the result of the trade. They are a group of vulgar people...but I see the process of this exchange. Only in my case, it is called the way of fairness."
