“Chen Pi, what is that thing you’re holding? Glowing cotton candy?”
A Liang turned his head, a flicker of curiosity in his eyes.
“…”
Chen Shu shook his head, about to put it away, hoping it might be useful later.
But at that moment, a hand suddenly grasped his right wrist.
“En?”
Chen Shu was slightly startled, then his face was covered in dark lines.
Xie Sunan was kneeling on one knee, saying with deep affection, two words:
“Boss…”
“…”
Chen Shu’s eyes twitched. Has this guy gone mad too?
“This thing…”
He pointed to the ball of light in Chen Shu’s hand, his eyes shining intensely, as if he wanted to swallow it in one gulp.
“Oh, a small thing.”
Chen Shu said indifferently, “What’s wrong?”
He thought of Old Xie’s insect butterfly as being for reconnaissance, but he hadn’t expected it to have such allure.
“That…”
Xie Sunan said, “My insect butterfly has a big problem. Now, before it dies, it has only one wish: to taste this thing…”
He was actually puzzled himself, but the insect butterfly had been constantly transmitting information to him, wanting to swallow this ball of light.
To satisfy his contracted spirit, Xie Sunan had to abandon his pride…
Although he was usually like this anyway…
“Before it dies?”
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows, a playful smile in his eyes. “If you’re not having problems, how can your contracted spirit be having problems?”
“Really.”
Xie Sunan’s expression was serious, and he summoned his insect butterfly.
The insect butterfly had now completely evolved into a green butterfly, at least looking much better.
“Chichi~~~”
As soon as the insect butterfly appeared, it immediately collapsed on the ground, twitching on the spot.
“…”
Chen Shu’s mouth twitched. He was really putting on a good show.
“What did the doctor say? What illness does it have?”
Xie Sunan sighed and said helplessly, “The doctor said it’s malignant… constipation, and it might not have much time left.”
“??”
In an instant, Chen Shu and the others were stunned.
Could you be any more ridiculous?
A Liang said, “Does this thing have benign and malignant types?”
“It’s a difficult and rare disease in the contracted spirit world.”
Xie Sunan nodded with great seriousness, “The doctors are also at a loss.”
“That’s because you didn’t find the right person. I have a solution!”
Chen Shu slapped his thigh, his eyes full of confidence.
Xie Sunan’s mouth parted, his expression dazed, and then he said, “You have a solution even for the illness I just made up?”
“Have you forgotten my “Tough Bandit Brand Laxative”?”
He raised an eyebrow and said, “You won’t find such a conscientious laxative anywhere else in the world.”
“…”
Xie Sunan’s eyes widened, and he immediately thought of the scene of the insect butterfly spraying.
“No, boss!”
He quickly said, “No need for laxatives, I just need that thing in your hand. Please give it a chance…”
“Hmm? You really want it?”
Chen Shu stroked his chin, a hint of thought in his eyes.
Xie Sunan and the insect butterfly nodded quickly, their expressions showing longing.
“Actually, I can give it to you, but there are a few conditions.”
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said.
“No problem, Brother Fei, as long as you want it, and as long as I have it!”
“Yikes…”
A Liang and the others felt a chill and couldn’t help but distance themselves.
“Don’t gross me out, alright…”
Chen Shu’s body also trembled, and he even had the urge to kick Old Xie away.
“Firstly!”
He distanced himself and said, “You have to pay my hard work fee first, two hundred million!”
“A drop in the bucket, no problem.”
Xie Sunan patted his chest, appearing wealthy and generous. The share from the Golden Lord alone would give him a billion.
Moreover, his intuition told him that the thing before him was not something that could be measured by money!
“Secondly, if I need to hunt fierce beasts in the future, you have to come and help me find them for free!”
“No problem! I’ll only serve you!”
“…”
Chen Shu’s mouth twitched. “Behave yourself, or I’ll really put a urea bag on you!”
“Uh… okay…”
Xie Sunan’s body trembled, and he immediately stopped his perverted demeanor.
He smiled and said, “Brother, are those the only two conditions?”
“Not yet! The third condition…”
Xie Sunan hadn’t paid much attention at first, but his expression gradually froze…
An hour later,
“The three hundred and twenty-eighth condition…”
“Enough!”
Xie Sunan’s mouth twitched and he said, “Boss, I’ll agree to any condition, alright!”
If Chen Shu continued, he could keep talking for a day and a night without repeating himself.
“Don’t rush!”
Chen Shu waved his hand and said, “There’s one last condition!”
“What is it?”
“Write me an argumentative essay of 1.79 million characters, all praising me…”
“…”
Xie Sunan’s expression stiffened. Are you sick?
He took a deep breath, calming his emotions, and slowly said,
“Brother, I’m a butcher, not a writer…”
“You have to try, it’s not difficult!”
Chen Shu pouted and said, “Aren’t my various deeds worth you recording?”
“Boss, do you know why I’m called Xie Sunan?”
“En?”
“Because writing is difficult!”
Xie Sunan spread his hands, sighed, and said, “Even my name resists it. Please don’t torment me anymore…”
“…”
Chen Shu was slightly stunned. He hadn’t noticed this before.
“Forget it, forget it.”
He shook his head and gave the Beast Emperor’s power in his hand to Xie Sunan.
He couldn’t use it anyway, so it was better to strengthen his own people.
In the future, when he had the strength to hunt Monarchs, he would still need Old Xie to help him search.
“Thank you, boss!”
Xie Sunan grinned and accepted the Beast Emperor’s spiritual power.
The insect butterfly became extremely excited. Although it didn’t understand what this was, it had a fatal attraction to it.
If it could swallow it, its improvement might be no less than a bloodline evolution.
“Transfer one hundred million to each of these two bank accounts!”
Chen Shu sent Wang Ce’s and another King-level beast tamer’s accounts to Old Xie.
“No problem, I’ll transfer them now!”
Xie Sunan nodded, stuffed the Beast Emperor’s power into the insect butterfly, and then focused on the transfer.
He said, “Boss, where did this thing come from? I want to buy more!”
“Buy?”
Chen Shu’s mouth twitched. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Dragon Abyss Wholesale Store!”
“…”
Xie Sunan was slightly stunned. As he expected, it really came from Dragon Abyss.
He had completely given up hope. That place was not somewhere he could reach.
Chen Shu chatted with the four of them for a while. With the Beast Emperor’s clone removed, a major hidden danger, his mood became somewhat pleasant.
He returned to his room and pondered the matters of his senior year.
“Next, I’ll complete the graduation assessment, wait for the Starry Sky Ruins to open. As for work, it’s irrelevant…”
Chen Shu had now come to terms with it. Whether he found a job or not was unimportant; becoming stronger was the top priority.
As night fell,
Qin Tian sent him a message:
[Chen Pi, the Dragon Guard Headquarters is looking for you tomorrow]
“Headquarters?”
Chen Shu stroked his chin and murmured, “It seems they’re going to give me my reward.”
