You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

Chapter 257 Chen Yang's Attitude

Back in time...

Wuji stopped and thought for a while.

Nodded and said: "Okay, I will let..."

However, before he could finish his words, Lin Ying immediately stepped forward and pulled his arm.

He leaned over to Wuji's ear and whispered, "We can't afford so many spirit stones right now!"

Hearing this, Wuji was stunned on the spot, and turned to look at Lin Ying with a strange expression.

Puzzled, he asked, "Why?"

Lin Ying replied helplessly: "I bought salt and sugar..."

Wuji was speechless and began to think about it.

If a war breaks out, it is essential to provide the disciples with resources as rewards for killing the enemy and compensation for injuries.

Otherwise, the disciples might become dissatisfied and cause internal strife, which would be counterproductive.

In addition to these war preparation resources, the spiritual stones that can be mobilized at will have been used by Lin Ying to buy a large amount of salt and sugar.

And he approved it personally.

For a moment, Wuji's expression kept changing.

Lin Ying could naturally see Wuji's dissatisfaction, so he had no choice but to step forward and say, "Chen Yang, I have a lot of salt and sugar..."

"Although the prices of salt and sugar are very low now, they will definitely skyrocket after this war."

"I'll use these salt and sugar to pay off the debt, and you can only make money and not lose money!"

"Snapped!"

Chen Yang instantly closed the folding fan in his hand and put his injured wrist behind his back.

He turned around and shook his head firmly, "No, I only recognize spirit stones!"

Lin Ying was a little anxious because of his firm attitude. He wanted to tell Chen Yang that after the Hundred Flowers Holy Land was destroyed, the salt and sugar controlled by them would definitely be sold at a sky-high price!

But this explanation is weak and powerless. Outsiders only see that the prices of salt and sugar are depreciating every day, but they don’t know its potential.

What they didn’t know was that he had secretly pocketed most of the salt and sugar on the market.

But this is also human nature. How can things like salt and sugar be compared with hard currency like spirit stones?

At this moment, Lin Ying secretly gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart: "This damn Chen Yang is so short-sighted!"

And he made up his mind that after the Hundred Flowers Holy Land was destroyed, he would raise the price of salt and sugar to a level that he could not afford!

Wuji took a deep breath and said with some embarrassment,

"We don't have any spirit stones right now. After the war is over, I will order more efforts to mine the spirit stone veins, and I will definitely make up for it for you."

Chen Yang still shook his head, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

He sneered and said, "After the war? Then when will we have to wait?"

"Besides, the war situation is ever-changing. Who knows what the situation will be like after the war?"

Wuji was completely speechless.

As the lord of the most top holy land in Qiyang Continent, it would indeed be a loss of status for him to ask for an IOU.

But there is no other way now. Every holy place has a reserve of elixirs.

But once the war begins, these reserves will be consumed at an alarming rate.

Therefore, the supply station of the Holy Land of Spiritual Medicine is the key to the battle.

Only by ensuring that the Holy Land of Hundred Flowers cannot obtain replenishment of medicinal pills can the war be ended at the lowest cost.

However, Chen Yang shook his head indifferently, "I only recognize spirit stones."

He repeated his previous words again.

But Wuji was a little embarrassed and asked unhappily, "Are you worried that I will default on my debt?"

Seeing Chen Yang was indifferent, he continued: "Are you still worried that I can't afford the spirit stones?"

Wuji's face darkened. This was the second time he was questioned and he was already starting to get angry.

He gritted his teeth and said, "My Wuji Holy Land owns two spiritual stone veins. You know the number of top-grade spiritual stones produced in them!"

He stared at Chen Yang, trying to make him understand his strength and wealth.

Then, he emphasized, "And that vein is managed by our Holy Land's First Elder Bian Xing. Are you worried that the vein will grow legs and run away?!"

His voice was filled with a hint of anger and majesty, as if he was showing Chen Yang his strength and status.

But Chen Yang remained unmoved and just looked at him coldly, as if he didn't care about his threat at all.

Wuji, who had almost never been rejected, was a little angry at the moment.

He is the dignified Wuji Holy Lord!

If he stomped his feet, the entire Qiyang Continent would tremble three times. Now he was so frustrated just because he owed some elixirs on credit. It was simply an insult to him!

How could this be true? !

Chen Yang remained indifferent to Wuji's words and simply closed his eyes, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"You!" Wuji wanted to say something.

But the next moment, he was stopped by Lin Ying, who then pulled him to the back and started discussing in a low voice.

"After the previous lesson, he is now scared and doesn't dare to take sides easily!"

Wuji's frown finally relaxed a little.

Lin Ying continued, "He is still frightened by what happened last time. If he acts rashly again this time, he might get himself into big trouble. And if the Hundred Flowers Holy Land doesn't perish in the end, he will definitely become a mortal enemy if he hears that Chen Yang lent us the elixir, so it's normal for him to have this concern."

"In business, money is exchanged for goods, and no one can say he is wrong."

"It is indeed a wise move to do so in order not to offend anyone and to protect one's own interests."

Doing things flawlessly and not allowing others to find fault with them is the basic principle for them when they are in a high position.

Wuji nodded in approval.

At this moment, Lin Ying became more and more excited as he spoke, with a smug smile on his face.

Patting his chest, he said proudly: "In the salt and sugar business war, I have made Ruyi lose everything. Now she definitely can't afford to buy elixirs, so we don't need to worry about her buying elixirs!"

Then, he added: "As long as Chen Yang sticks to his bottom line and gives the elixir when he sees the spirit stone, then there is no need for us to make things difficult for him!"

Wuji thought about it for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Afterwards, the two of them came back to Chen Yang.

Wuji had a stern face, a serious and earnest expression, and asked word by word: "If Ruyi also has no money, will you lend her the elixir?"

When Chen Yang heard this, his heart tightened and his mouth opened slightly.

really!

Everything developed just as Liu Yuntian predicted...

He quickly shook his head and answered firmly: "I said that I will give you the elixir only when I see the spirit stone!"

Although Chen Yang appeared to be fair, impartial and just at this moment, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

This Liu Yuntian's ability to read people's hearts is so accurate? ! !

He even guessed Wuji and Lin Ying's attitudes and reactions exactly!

After getting Chen Yang's assurance, Wuji didn't make things difficult for him any further.

nodded,

Before leaving, he did not forget to threaten, "Since you don't want to get involved in this mess, I won't make things difficult for you, so just watch the show quietly."

"If I knew that you were secretly helping Ruyi..."

Only half of the words were said. In order to save face for both parties, the unpleasant words were not said.

But the threat was clearly conveyed.
