"Hong Dali!" Old Elder's beard almost stood up. "Don't go overboard! You said 20 billion, so 20 billion. Where's the money? "
"The money is with Great-grandmother." Hong Dali raised his eyebrows. "Great-grandmother knows."
"It's with me." Hua Yueling smiled. "The Dimu Star Sector High Nobles compensated our sweetheart 30 billion Shenglong Dollars. It's more than enough to buy these elixirs. I can guarantee it with my old face."
What the heck, what did this Hong Dali do for the High Nobles to compensate him with 30 billion Shenglong Dollars!? Even the High Nobles would lose a layer of skin from this amount, right?!
But no matter what, it would be too easy for this guy to settle the matter with just money.
Old Elder rolled his eyes and said, "Chief, Grandmother, it's true that Hong Dali is rich. But if he can do this just because he has money, where is the dignity of the Hong Family?"
"Hong Haoyuan." Hong Xingyu's expression changed. Anger surged in his heart. It seemed these Elders came prepared today. They were determined to make things difficult for Hong Dali. Hong Xingyu thought for a while, then slowly said, "Very good. Since you said so, tell me, what do you plan to do? "
In such a big family, Hong Xingyu was the most powerful and the Chief. Although Hong Haoyuan and the other Elders were considered part of his family, they were separated by a few generations. They often fought openly and secretly for power and wealth.
Now that Hong Dali came, they instantly felt a huge threat. Hence, they did not care about their reputation anymore. They wanted to take down as many as they could.
However, Hong Dali had already said that he would compensate 20 billion. There was no hope of chasing him out of the family. Hence, they could only settle for the next best thing. They would teach him a lesson and let him know how to behave.
Therefore, Old Elder Hong Haoyuan rolled his eyes and a smile appeared on his face. He said respectfully, "Clan Leader, you're too serious. What I mean is that Hong Dali trespassed into the Elixir Room. We can't just let this go. However, we can't force him to do what he doesn't want. We have to make him compensate as a warning to the rest of the family. "
What he said was reasonable. Hong Dali trespassed into the Elixir Room. They couldn't just let this go, right? If that was the case, how would the other family members be disciplined in the future?
At this moment, the Second Elder also chimed in, "That's right, Clan Head. Back then, Haoyuan's son, Sheng Qi, had already reached a certain realm in his martial arts cultivation. In the end, Clan Head wasn't around, so he went to the Spiritual Medicine Room and ate some spiritual medicine by himself. In the end, he was even punished to face the wall and reflect on his mistakes. This time, we can't let him off so easily."
The Third Elder didn't say anything and just nodded in agreement.
"Yes." Now that they had already said so, Hong Xingyu could not do anything about it. He wanted to help Hong Dali secretly, but the problem was that the Elders had sufficient reasons. Especially when they brought up the matter of the Old Elder's son, Hong Shengqi, he could not object. Otherwise, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face? He immediately frowned and said, "Dali, since the Elders have said so, why don't you see if there's anything else? Take it as compensation for barging into the Elixir Room. How about it?"
If it was someone else, Hong Xingyu would have given him a tight slap. Only Hong Dali would dare to use such a tone.
"Hehe, Great-grandfather, I'm a prodigal." Hong Dali grinned and was not nervous at all. "Since this Elder wants me to give him something as compensation, I shall compensate him." As he spoke, he took out a book and threw it into the Old Elder's hands. "Take this book as my compensation. I think it should be about the same."
Saying so, Hong Dali added, "Actually, at your age, I should call you Grandfather. But you have a high status and power, I don't dare to casually call you Grandfather. You are powerful, and you are the Old Elder now. In the future, you might even be promoted. I'm just a prodigal, I don't dare to flatter myself."
Hong Dali was usually very respectful to the Elders, calling them Uncle or Grandpa.
But today, this Great Elder had clearly come for him. Such a person naturally didn't need to be treated coldly. He wasn't worthy of being treated coldly.
"Humph." Hearing Hong Dali's words, the Old Elder's face turned cold. Although others respectfully called him Old Elder, who didn't want to call him Grandfather Haoyuan intimately? That was a form of address that could only be given when one was a respected Elder.
Yet, this Hong Dali actually said in front of so many people that he was not worthy to call him Grandfather. Although he said that, who could not understand the meaning behind his words? He was really saying that he was not worthy to be his grandfather!
"Just call me Old Elder." Hong Haoyuan's tone was cold. Then, he flipped the book. The other two Elders also curiously stretched their heads over. When they saw the pictures in the book, anger instantly appeared on their faces. They loudly said, "Hong Dali, you are good! You actually used an erotic picture to make fun of us! "
Erotic picture!
Upon hearing these three words, everyone in the surroundings was stunned. This Hong Dali was too daring, wasn't he? Using an erotic picture as a treasure, intending to make up for his crime of barging into the Elixir Room!?
"No, it's not like that." Hua Xiangyu hurriedly explained for Hong Dali. "On the surface, this is an erotic … that picture. In fact, this is a secret manual. As long as it comes into contact with water, the real words will be revealed."
There was such a thing?
Martial arts secret manual? What kind of martial arts secret manual could a prodigal take out?
Even Hong Xingyu softly asked Hua Yueling, "Old Madam, I don't think Hong Dali mentioned that he cultivated anything before, right?"
Hua Yueling shook her head and said, "I don't think so. When he fought against the Man-made God, he used his transformation. If he really cultivated, why would he need to go through so much trouble to fight against the Man-made God? "
"That's true." Hong Xingyu was a little worried. "These martial arts secret manuals are also divided into different levels. If the one he took out is too low, he will only become a laughing stock. What level do you think this is?"
"Stellar-level." Hua Yueling frowned, then softly said, "Stellar-level is not bad. It's hard for ordinary people to get their hands on it. If we really can't do it, we can force this matter down. At most, we can ask him to compensate us more money. Anyway, he doesn't lack money. When the money is in our hands, we can secretly return it to him. Wouldn't that be the end of it? "
"Yup, yup. That's a good idea." Hong Xingyu's heart was settled. He just had to wait and see what level this secret manual was.
Soon, the guard brought the water over. Instantly, everyone stretched their necks to take a look. They wanted to see what the secret manual on the erotic painting was.
They slowly dampened the paper with water, and the words on it instantly appeared.
"This is … this is …" The more Old Elder read, the more shocked he became. The more he read, the more numb his scalp became. When he reached the end, he didn't dare to continue reading. He handed the book to Hong Xingyu and said with a trembling voice, "Chief, this secret manual, it might, it might be …"
"What is it?" Hong Xingyu glanced at it too, and his eyes suddenly widened. Finally, he slowly read out the name of the secret manual. "Devouring the Sky and Dominating the World: Perfect Eternal Life Visualization Diagram?! Such a long name? Let me look for it again … "Soon, he found the original name." The original name is' Three Realms True Spirit Sword Record '?! This is … this is a cultivation technique from the Cultivation dimension! " After he read a few more times, he finally let out a deep breath. "Cultivation techniques from the Cultivation dimension can be cultivated at the Spirit Refinement to Void level. Corresponding to our level here, that is …"
The three Elders looked at each other. Their bodies shook violently and they exclaimed, "Star Sector-level?"
Star Sector-level secret manual!
To the Shenglong Royal Family, or even the Hong Family, Planet-level and Stellar-level secret manuals weren't worth much. They couldn't be bothered with more. After all, what they cultivated were all high-level secret manuals. They didn't have time to waste on low-level ones. Usually, those were for children to practice for fun and to build their foundations.
But Star Sector-level, that was completely different!
Star Sector-level secret manuals were extremely powerful. The weaker ones could only amplify their strength by 30 to 50 times. The stronger ones could even amplify it by more than 100 times!
For example, the Hong Family's secret manual "Realm King Fist" could amplify one's strength by 120 times when cultivated to the extreme! What kind of concept was that? When a Star Sector-level warrior unleashed his full power, he could even fight against a King Zerg with his physical body! If he used his full power, a Man-made God would be nothing to a real high-level Star Sector-level warrior. This was also the main reason why Hong Xingyu could instantly kill a Man-made God.
And now, Hong Dali casually took out a Star Sector-level secret manual, and it was from the Cultivation dimension …
Although they both corresponded to the Star Sector-level, Star Sector-level + Star Sector-level and Star Sector-level + Star Sector-level from the Cultivation dimension were two different concepts.
Because the former could only be cultivated separately. But Star Sector-level + Star Sector-level secret manuals from the Cultivation dimension could complement each other. If successfully fused, it could even amplify one's strength by 150 times!
For example, if the Hong Family's "Realm King Fist" could successfully fuse with this "Three Realms True Spirit Sword Record", it was possible to instantly amplify one's strength by 150 times!
Treasure! This secret manual was definitely a real treasure!
At this time, everyone looked at Hong Dali in a different light. The beards of the three Elders trembled. While they were exclaiming that they were so lucky to get a Star Sector-level secret manual from the Cultivation dimension, they also secretly made up their minds. This Hong Dali couldn't be allowed to live!
This fellow had just arrived and he already bribed Hua Xiangyu, took out the secret manual, and even lost more than 20 billion. If this continued, Hong Xingyu might pass the position of the Family Leader to him in a moment of agitation. That would be really troublesome!
But no matter what happened in the future, they had to say some polite words at this time. The Old Elder instantly smiled and said, "Since Hong Dali took out such an important secret manual, then this time …"
Originally, he wanted to say that they should just leave it at that. Alas, before he finished speaking, suddenly, a guard outside the door loudly announced, "Bei Mingxuan, the head of the Bei Family, brought Bei Yuanqing, and the head of the Zhu Family, Zhu Yunzhou, brought Zhu Ningyu. They are here to visit."
The Bei Family and Zhu Family actually came?
