Emptiness looked at Li Xiandao. This request made him silent.
If this life was saved, it would belong to Li Xiandao, to the Bank of the Universe and not to him.
It sounded really hard to accept.
But thinking about it, without the Bank of the Universe's help, he wouldn't be able to live. The thick death energy in his body would explode one day and drown him. When that happened, even gods wouldn't be able to save him.
Emptiness himself was really strong and wanted to live a second life, which was why he chose to die.
But Chasing Corpse Sect destroyed his plans and dug him out. They used all sorts of methods to refine him into a corpse king, which destroyed his hopes.
The only one who could save him was the Bank of the Universe, only Li Xiandao.
So Li Xiandao's request wasn't too much.
Li Xiandao looked at Emptiness quietly. He raised his own request and it was up to Emptiness to agree.
"If I agree, will I become your slave and you can do whatever you want to me?" Emptiness asked.
Li Xiandao shook his head, "Don't think that way. I have many subordinates and I don't lack you. I don't want people to be slaves. Compared to one-sided exploitation, I prefer a win-win situation!"
Emptiness looked at Li Xiandao in doubt and didn't know whether or not to believe him.
"You can treat it as our cooperation. You signed the contract and in name you are my subordinate. But you obtained your life and I obtained your loyalty. As long as you don't betray me, then it will be a win-win situation." Li Xiandao continued.
Emptiness was convinced, "I am alone in this world and have nothing to worry about. I don't care whether or not I sign the contract but I have a few requests."
Li Xiandao said calmly, "Speak!"
The request wasn't too much and he could satisfy it. After all, to make a sheep run, one had to give it some grass to eat.
But for Li Xiandao, if the request was too much and harmed his benefits, then he definitely wouldn't agree.
"I hope that you can help me find my past and let me know who I am!" Emptiness said seriously. He was the one who gave himself this name and he didn't have any sense of immersion at all. He still wanted to know who he was and where he came from.
Li Xiandao smiled, "No problem!"
Emptiness continued, "The second request is also the last. I hope that you can help me find someone and gather information about him. I want to know."
Li Xiandao's brow rose up and he asked, "Who?"
"Human King!" Emptiness said.
When he said this name, Emptiness's heart shook and he was really emotional.
He had to find out who the Human King was.
Li Xiandao nodded his head, "No problem. As long as this Human King exists, I will help you find him."
Emptiness didn't have any more requests, "Then, I have no problems."
Li Xiandao snapped his fingers and Seven passed the prepared contract to Li Xiandao.
"Take a look. If there are no problems then sign it." Li Xiandao glanced at the contract and passed it over.
The contract was filled with words and all the rules were clear. The rough meaning was that Li Xiandao would help Emptiness revive and then Emptiness would have to serve Li Xiandao and not go against his orders.
As for his two requests, Li Xiandao helped him complete them. It was an agreement between a master and a subordinate and it wasn't something that Li Xiandao had to complete.
Li Xiandao paid attention to this point in case he couldn't find Nothingness's past and that would be awkward.
Emptiness looked at the contract. The dense words made his eyes dizzy but there were no problems with each one.
Emptiness wanted to emphasize those two requests but Li Xiandao said, "Don't worry, to make you serve me wholeheartedly, I will try my best to help you with those two requests."
The moment he said that, Emptiness was silent. He had nothing to say and could only choose to sign.
After writing his name, Emptiness looked at Li Xiandao and kept silent.
He didn't smile and wasn't good at talking. He just stood in front of Li Xiandao.
"From now onwards, you will stay in the Bank of the Universe and cultivate in peace. If I need you to help, I will inform you." Li Xiandao said.
Emptiness nodded his head.
"Right, Seven, do you know about Human King?" Li Xiandao asked curiously.
He had just come to Celestial World and didn't know anything about the people here. Whether or not Human King was male or female, Li Xiandao didn't even know. Like Emptiness, he was totally confused.
But Seven was different. She had existed for a long time and knew many things.
"I have heard that there was a top king born from the human race who was called the Human King." Seven thought about it and said.
"A top king of the human race?" Li Xiandao was shocked.
Emptiness looked at Seven with hope in his eyes.
"I don't know much. Human King has only appeared for a short period of time, just a thousand years. From when he became famous to when he disappeared, he was active for a thousand years. So, I didn't pay much attention to him." Seven shook his head.
"Then, what does this Human King look like?" Li Xiandao asked.
Emptiness looked at Seven without blinking at all.
"Beautiful! Really beautiful! "Seven emphasized.
"Human King is a woman?" Li Xiandao looked at Seven in shock. He didn't think that there was something wrong with a woman's name but that Human King didn't sound like a woman's name.
"Right, Human King is a woman, a valiant woman. I only paid attention because she is a woman, otherwise, I wouldn't know about her." Seven smiled.
"Human King is a woman, so why are you looking for her?" Li Xiandao asked Emptiness.
Emptiness was lost, "I don't know her gender but I know her personality. Just hearing this name makes my blood boil like this name is carved into my blood."
Li Xiandao teased, "Is she your enemy?"
Emptiness shook his head. He didn't know.
"Okay, you can head down. Rest for a period of time and I will help you clear out the death energy in your body. Then, you will be able to revive. I hope that your memories will come back too." Li Xiandao said.
Emptiness got up and left the Trading Hall.
Only Li Xiandao and Seven were left in the empty Trading Hall.
Li Xiandao looked at Seven and asked, "You really don't know more about Human King?"
"I don't. If you want to know, you should head to Jixia College. This is the biggest college of the human race and it has more books than our Ten Thousand Country Book Depository. It definitely has information about Human King and it is the most comprehensive." Seven reminded Li Xiandao.
"Jixia College!" Li Xiandao muttered.
"Right, this is the human race's holy land and all the elders are there. In the Celestial World, there are tens of thousands of races and many of them are stronger than the human race. The human race is just one of them. Jixia College is there to protect the interests of the human race and also to pass down legacies, reproduce, and educate." Seven said.
