Chapter 244: Investment
Miao Yin arranged a place for Zhang Chi to stay and then angrily returned to her Miao Yin Pavilion.
She talked for a long time, but Zhang Chi still refused to break off the engagement with Long Yan. He only promised to be extremely careful and asked her to rest assured.
Rest assured my foot!
That Dragon Transformation Palace must be a trap. How can she rest assured?
"I'm so angry, I can't be bothered with you!"
That's what she said, but when she thought about how Zhang Chi encouraged and comforted her when she was sad and had amnesia, how could she just ignore him now that he's in trouble?
"Sigh, I've really fallen for you."
Miao Yin felt a bit aggrieved. After all, she was a Divine Ability Perfected Being with excellent aptitude, both talented and beautiful, and came from a noble background. Her vision was also quite extraordinary.
But unfortunately, she met Zhang Chi, as if she had lost her mind, completely lacking the demeanor that a Divine Ability Perfected Being should have.
However, those who cultivate the path of music and rhythm are naturally more emotional. Without emotions, there would be no emotions in music and rhythm.
She could only sigh that she used to be a cold woman. If not for that, the Divine Ability she comprehended would not have been a desolate sound of killing.
It was Miao Qin who felt that she had deviated from the right path, being too cold and detached from the mortal world. In the future, it would be difficult for her to comprehend the Great Dao. That's why she advised her to change her temperament and pay more attention to worldly matters to enrich her own experiences.
As a result, what she saw was the power struggles among the higher-ups, the deceit and scheming, and the struggles of the common people at the bottom, who had no choice but to live their lives.
Seeing this worldly scene, she became even more eager to avoid the world.
Until the appearance of the Talisman Treasure Sect's secret realm, she saw Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi was also a commoner, struggling to survive, but he had a power that made him strive for progress, like a ray of light in the darkness.
So Miao Yin watched his live broadcasts every day and released her perception to eavesdrop on other people's discussions.
It was only at this time that she realized that she had only seen the difficulties faced by the lower-level cultivators, but they also had their own happiness.
The power struggles among the higher-ups were also for the sake of protecting the sect and maintaining its interests.
Everything in the mortal world cannot be viewed from a single perspective.
It was precisely because of this comprehension that her mentality gradually changed, like a melting ice sculpture, becoming more vibrant.
All thanks to Zhang Chi, Miao Yin treated him like a brainless fan chasing after a star, idolizing him.
Although Zhang Chi's cultivation level was lower than hers, it didn't prevent Miao Yin from admiring him.
Before they met, her feelings for Zhang Chi were just the admiration of a fan for an idol. But after meeting and getting to know each other, this affection quietly changed.
Thinking back on all of this, Miao Yin was filled with mixed emotions.
She knew that she was probably entangled in the threads of love, but she couldn't break free, nor did she want to.
She also wanted to taste the flavor of love.
However, now that Zhang Chi and Long Yan's matter had to be dealt with, Zhang Chi, this fool who knows nothing about the dangers of the mortal world, since she was called "sister," she had to plan well for him and not let him be deceived by a bad woman.
Speaking of bad women, Miao Yin thought of her previous plan.
There is a female disciple named Lu Qing in the Celestial Melody Pavilion. Although her looks are only above average, she can make many men jealous of her. She must be someone with means.
Miao Yin had previously wanted to seek advice from her, but things got delayed.
Today is a good opportunity to call her over!
Not to mention how Miao Yin learned the art of seducing men from Sea King, Zhang Chi met with Wenren Li in the arranged residence.
It's not that he wanted to do something bad with Wenren Li, but Wenren Li brought him food to nourish his body.
Zhang Chi didn't ask what kind of meat it was, but it was definitely not poisonous. After eating it, he instantly felt a surge of energy.
Originally, he didn't want to cause trouble in the Celestial Melody Pavilion's territory. If he were to be discovered, his reputation would be ruined.
Fortunately, Wenren Li is an elder of the Sword Sect, so he could stay under the pretext of discussing swordsmanship. Zhang Chi generously taught her the Great River Sword Scripture.
The Sword Sect's secret teachings have nothing to do with me. I will teach whatever I can.
In addition to the Great River Sword Scripture, Zhang Chi personally taught her the Nine Probes of the Divine Dragon because he could teach her more after eating the meat Wenren Li brought.
Seeing the fire seed in his body continuously growing, Wenren Li was also delighted.
She has always felt a sense of urgency, worried that the Wenren Family would kill her to save face. No matter how talented she is, she would die prematurely.
Thanks to Ao Yue, she could use these fire seeds she obtained today to cultivate to the next Rank One level.
After the cultivation session, both of them were very exhausted, but Wenren Li was still in good spirits.
"I'm about to go into seclusion soon. If the Wenren Family comes looking for me, just tell them the truth."
"Of course, I will tell the truth. Do you think I would offend the Wenren Family for you?"
Zhang Chi said indifferently, causing Wenren Li to give him a disdainful look.
The relationship between the two of them is quite intimate, and they are extremely frank with each other. There is nothing that the other hasn't seen, but they both feel that this is more like a transaction.
She needs Zhang Chi's fire seeds, and Zhang Chi wants her Body of the First Star.
However...
Although it's a transaction, she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when she heard Zhang Chi's indifferent attitude.
"I just reminded you not to get killed."
"Don't worry, I'm good at clinging to powerful people. I won't die easily."
Zhang Chi laughed, "You can rest assured and go into seclusion. I'll wait for you to break through, and then I'll cling to you."
"Hmph, when I break through, it's not something you can cling to."
Wenren Li tidied up and confidently said.
She is going to comprehend Dao Integration on this journey.
She doesn't know how long it will take, maybe a year or two, or maybe three to five years. It's hard to say.
But one thing is certain, Wenren Tingyu has disappeared, and the Wenren Family will not easily let her go.
She only hopes that within three to five years, the Wenren Family will continue to underestimate her. Only when she breaks through Dao Integration and truly has a chance in this vast world can she consider herself to have a real opportunity.
"So, I have to please you in advance!"
"Yes, seize the opportunity now, and your sister will protect you in the future."
Wenren Li was just joking with Zhang Chi and didn't really want anything from him.
However, Zhang Chi took out a Dragon Card with one million spirit stones.
"Here is one million, the source is not very legitimate, you can use it. I also hid one hundred thousand spirit stones, you can take them before you go into seclusion."
As he spoke, Zhang Chi casually drew a treasure map and marked his hiding place.
"Also, there is a special place there that should be able to avoid the prying eyes of the heavens. It's also a good place to hide during seclusion, although the spiritual energy there is a bit lacking. With so many spirit stones, it should be enough for you."
Wenren Li: "..."
She never expected that Zhang Chi would actually give her something.
"You...you're not acting normal today."
It was originally a normal transaction, but now it has turned into a transaction involving money and favors.
"There's nothing abnormal. I have no use for these things anyway. What, are you being coy now?"
"Hmph, it's only right to take advantage of what you get. If you end up losing everything, don't blame me."
"It's nothing. Anyway, I'm going to marry into a wealthy family, so this amount of money is nothing."
Wenren Li: "..."
To be able to say that living off someone so confidently, it's unbelievable.
She took the Dragon Card and treasure map from Zhang Chi's hand, waved casually, and said, "Since you're giving it to me for free, I'll take it. Goodbye."
After speaking, she left the room gracefully.
She appeared calm and composed, but ripples were still stirring in her heart.
"Heh, some people are really generous."
As soon as Wenren Li left, Gu Youyou started to put on a show.
Spirit stones, those are the spirit stones I worked so hard to transport!
The spirit stones I worked so hard to snatch and steal, and you just give them away like that?
Gu Youyou's inner resentment and grievances surged, as if she had been possessed by Lin Meimei.
"You pity her for being alone and without spirit stones, but have you ever thought about me? I draw talismans every day and kill fierce beasts with my own hands, just to save up some spirit stones for us to use. And yet, you casually give away all our savings!"
If Gu Youyou could materialize, she would probably wipe away her tears with a handkerchief.
Those are all my money!
Seeing her cute tantrum, Zhang Chi didn't interrupt her. He waited until she finished speaking before smiling and saying, "Don't worry, my dear, when wealth is scattered, it will eventually come back."
"Who's your dear!"
Gu Youyou angrily retorted.
She agreed to be Zhang Chi's Dao companion, but that was just an agreement. Zhang Chi wasn't allowed to call her that!
Just as she took her money to please other women, now he's calling her dear again?
Dream on!
"Of course you're my dear. We have become Dao companions and made a heavenly oath."
"Don't call me that."
"Alright, I won't call you that. Can you listen to my explanation now?"
"Go ahead."
With just a few words, Zhang Chi managed to calm Gu Youyou down and prevent her from entering the "I won't listen" stage.
This was the application of a broken window tactic.
If he had started explaining from the beginning, Gu Youyou would definitely have gotten angry and not listened. But when he called her dear, Gu Youyou became more concerned about that, so she would let him explain.
Zhang Chi calmly said, "I did this for two reasons. First, to make the most of my spirit stones, and second, to show kindness to Wenren Li."
All the spirit stones Zhang Chi gave away were ones he couldn't easily use.
When they didn't have much reputation, it was no problem to use that money to make more money. No one paid attention to them.
But after going to the Talisman Treasure Sect's secret realm, Zhang Chi became well-known, and many eyes were on him.
No matter what he wanted to do, he would receive looks of goodwill, curiosity, or even suspicion. He had to be extremely careful in his actions and not reveal any clues.
If a large sum of money with an unclear source was exposed, his image would collapse.
Zhang Chi had always been cautious, and because of that, he couldn't use the spirit stones or keep them in his hands, as they would be wasted. It was better to give them to someone else.
Wenren Li happened to need spirit stones, so he gave them to her.
"You said she is scheming and not a good person to associate with. Why did you change your tune today? Did you suddenly feel comfortable and think she's a good person?"
The more Gu Youyou thought about it, the more she felt that was the reason, and naturally, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
But Zhang Chi remained calm and let Gu Youyou be jealous. He explained seriously, "Although Wenren Li is scheming, have you ever seen her actively plot against someone?
She may be scheming, but she can't be considered a bad person.
When she rises in the future, she won't forget about us!"
