Chapter 1026: Chapter 247: If You Play the Protagonist, Then Play the Protagonist! [Ten Thousand Words!]

Xue Fuxiao is setting him up, but wasn’t he just playing along with the game? This fool might think he’s got the better of me, but just listening to his tone, I knew there was a catch.

That’s why he pressed on relentlessly!

All for the sake of saving the Sixth Fang!

This is the only old brother he has left after all these long years.

Feng Yunqi is truly willing to pay any price to save him.

"So it’s a deal?"

"It’s a deal!"

"Good!"

Xue Fuxiao, smug and full of himself, opened the Space Ring directly: "Sweep it with your Divine Sense to see if it’s there."

Feng Yunqi scanned with his Divine Sense and was immediately shocked.

Inside... tons of Spiritual Medicine!

The two Black and White Ginsengs he painstakingly extorted from Duan Xiyang were nothing compared to what was in there.

Even the smallest Black and White Ginseng here was bigger than his two combined.

The True Soul Yin Yang Roots he dreamed of were piled up like a mountain! Tens of thousands of pounds!

Feng Yunqi was utterly dumbfounded.

Legendary Spiritual Treasures like the Flying Phoenix Nether Ginseng were stunningly plentiful. Pile upon pile.

Feng Yunqi’s eyes glazed over with greed.

Xue Fuxiao swiftly sealed the ring.

"Damn!"

Feng Yunqi was furious: "Open it, I...I haven’t finished looking."

"Why finish looking?"

Xue Fuxiao was full of himself: "I just ask you, are the two things you want inside?!" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Yes! And plenty, all high quality!"

"Then why don’t I get them out for you, wouldn’t that be enough?"

"Not enough!"

Feng Yunqi’s eyes turned red: "Give me more!"

"No way!"

"You’ve got so many, stacks of mountains, give me more! Asking for a third isn’t too much, is it? I’m also your ally, damn it."

"You’re dreaming!"

"Then I’ll go to Dongfang Sansan to ask for more!"

"Go ask him then; if you can get more, I’ll walk on one leg from now on."

Xue Fuxiao recalled Dongfang Sansan’s miserly nature, absolutely confident in saying this.

Even I can’t get more, you think you can? Tch!

Feng Yunqi almost laughed from anger: "Are you that long? Pole vault then?"

"Don’t worry about that, I just ask you if what you said earlier, about Sansan asking you to do three things for the Guardians, still counts?"

"It counts, it counts!"

Feng Yunqi nodded repeatedly.

His eyes glowed green as he stared at the treasures in Xue Fuxiao’s ring.

Damn it, don’t just count what I said earlier as true, with what’s in this ring, give me half, and I’d be willing to work for the Guardians for life!

Feng Yunqi now deeply regretted not cultivating properly, leading to not being able to overpower Xue Fuxiao, otherwise, he would’ve just snatched it...

Xue Fuxiao was extremely pleased.

He felt like he had accomplished something significant. When I get back, Sansan will definitely see me in a new light; what a badass thing I’ve done!

Just like that, he easily pulled Feng Yunqi into their Camp.

Little did he know, waiting for Xue Fuxiao back home was a furious scolding from Dongfang Sansan: You fool... With the treasures inside this ring, just a couple of True Soul Yin Yang Roots, a few Flying Phoenix Nether Ginsengs, and a few Black and White Ginsengs would have been enough to make Feng Yunqi obey.

But you let him see it all at once, isn’t this just asking for trouble...

With Dongfang Sansan’s stingy personality and Feng Yunqi’s greed, seeing all this Spiritual Medicine would make him stiffen up... This ring could probably keep them arguing for a few thousand years...

That’s a story for another time.

Having dealt with this matter, Xue Fuxiao felt refreshed.

"I haven’t asked yet, what does the Heroic Order of the World mean?" Xue Fuxiao inquired.

Feng Yunqi sighed: "I didn’t want to say, but so much time has passed, it doesn’t matter now, keeping it bottled up just makes me uncomfortable."

"It was during the age when Lord Jun Lin swept through the Continent, almost ten thousand years after his time, the exact time can’t be calculated."

Feng Yunqi’s expression turned somewhat wistful.

"And I was just seventeen then; one day, I received Divine Revelation, and since then, my Cultivation advanced rapidly. The future task was to set rules for the world."

"At that time, the entire world felt like a wasteland. You understand that feeling, right?"

"I understand."

How could he not understand? Xue Fuxiao understood it very well.

"Countless small countries, with countless of their own laws, fires of war ever-present, annual warfare, here just unified, there rebellion breaks out, there just stabilized, internal strife starts here... all kinds of chaos."

"After cultivating for a while, I started traveling the Jianghu, searching for like-minded brothers to work together on this task."

"People constantly joined, constantly left, constantly died, three thousand years later, finally gathered four brothers, but the rules set were constantly abandoned, and the foundation laid was constantly destroyed..."

"And it went on and on, finally growing in strength, we had eight brothers, and started ranking the heroes of the world. In our vision, this was just the first step. As long as the world recognized the fairness of the ranking, naturally we would have succeeded in the first step."

"After many years of bloody battles, just as the Continent’s Hero List was established, those listed faced endless challenges, the dissatisfied gathered, and the ranked experts kept losing. Seeing the situation, we used the Heavenly Mechanism Jade, and our cultivation had reached the point where we finally communicated with the Heavenly Dao, establishing Cloud Monitoring; since then, everyone was under surveillance."
