Quietly returning to his room, Ning Qi sat cross-legged again. He wasn't confident in cutting this Heavenly Source Stone now, so he temporarily stored it in his spatial bag. In the future, when he had the chance and conditions, he would cut it open to see what was inside.
"Sure enough, it's good to be rich."
Ning Qi suddenly sighed in his heart.
Ever since he came to Shenluo World, he had been using origin essence stones to open his path. If he was a pauper like the other cultivators, he would probably still be worrying about how to advance to Karma Realm.
Even if it was 300 million origin essence stones, Ning Qi could easily take it. If it was any other cultivator, even a Rebirth Realm expert would probably feel the pinch before they could take it out.
If it rose, it would be a great opportunity for ordinary cultivators. But even if they knew that it would definitely rise, they didn't have that much capital, so they naturally wouldn't have such an opportunity.
Just as Ning Qi returned to his room, in the Dark Parliament's headquarters, Wu Xiang suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the corner of the big screen.
"That kid just went out?"
Wu Xiang was slightly startled, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
"If I knew this, I would have kept a close eye on this guy."
Wu Xiang felt some regret.
Next, he stopped meditating and just silently stared at Ning Qi, wanting to see if Ning Qi had any other tricks. At the same time, he was also analyzing what Ning Qi had just gone out to do.
… …
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
Ning Qi used this half a year's time to expand his wallet, and his net worth had already skyrocketed to 8 billion origin essence stones.
Shi Xiaoyue and the rest also made a small fortune. Even Sun Shu, who often lost in stone gambling, relied on Ning Qi's eyesight to earn a hundred million origin essence stones in this half a year. Dream Cloud Ze and Niao Yue often lamented that they had such an opportunity today because they followed Shi Xiaoyue and befriended Ning Qi. If not for Ning Qi, not only would they not be able to maintain a good relationship with the City Lord Mansion, their net worth would not have reached this level.
Now, even ordinary Karma Realm cultivators would be left in the dust! But in this half a year, although Ning Qi's relationship with the City Lord Mansion was getting closer, and he would go to the City Lord Mansion at least three times a month to appraise the Heavenly Source Stone for the Vice City Lord, the progress of the mission was still zero.
What treasure did Vice City Lord Xiao get to be able to control the situation of the Myriad Race War?
"Brother Ning, after half a year of laying the groundwork, when are we ready to act? Why don't I sneak a peek at Deacon Xiao Ri and see if he knows about this? "
Sun Shu whispered.
Shi Xiaoyue and the other two nodded slightly.
"There's no need to rush. Such an item is definitely the treasure of the Heavenly Wolf City's Vice City Lord. If we don't have absolute confidence and make him suspicious, we won't even be able to leave Heavenly Wolf City."
Ning Qi laughed.
Shi Xiaoyue and the other three didn't know the true purpose of the Dark Parliament's test, but Ning Qi knew that their mission was to hide. The treasure of the Deputy City Lord would naturally be taken by others.
"What Brother Ning said makes sense. Let's be a little more patient."
Shi Xiaoyue nodded.
"Oh right, I heard that Deacon Xiao Ri has taken a liking to Komodo. He became Deacon Xiao Ri's guard yesterday."
Sun Shu suddenly laughed.
"This guy has been working as a driver for half a year. When he returns to the Dark Parliament, we'll make sure to make fun of him."
Meng Yunze couldn't help but laugh. "Let's forget about it. Komodo is a petty guy, and his background is stronger than ours. We shouldn't offend him if we can. His uncle is Master Zedo, and there's also a member of the Sea Tribe in the Parliament. Their relationship must be like an old tree.
Who knows if there will be a fifth step cultivator standing up for Komodo. It won't do us any good if we provoke him. "
Niao Yue shook his head.
"Deacon Xiao Ri has taken a liking to Komodo …"
Ning Qi's eyes moved slightly as he pondered.
… …
City Lord Mansion.
Komodo followed beside Deacon Xiao Ri with a fawning expression. He was inwardly happy that he didn't waste the past half a year and successfully got into the Deputy City Lord's side.
"Although they are guests of the Deputy City Lord, they don't live in the City Lord Mansion. Compared to me, it's easier for me to complete the mission. Haha …"
"Komodo."
Deacon Xiao Ri suddenly stopped.
"Deacon Xiao Ri, what instructions do you have?"
Komodo quickly cupped his hands.
"I have a question for you, and I hope you can answer truthfully."
Deacon Xiao Ri looked at Komodo with a faint smile, but his eyes suddenly flashed with fierceness. Komodo was slightly stunned and subconsciously thought that his identity had been exposed. He was so scared that his legs almost trembled. However, he immediately reacted. It was impossible for his identity to be exposed. After all, he had been enduring for the past half a year and had never gone overboard.
He had to expose his' identity '!
"Deacon Xiao Ri, please ask. I will tell you everything I know!"
Komodo said loyally.
"I remember that half a year ago, there was a cultivator beside Brother Ning who seemed to recognize you. You seemed to recognize him too. Do you still remember that?"
Deacon Xiao Ri said with a smile.
He paused for a moment. "Tell me their background. In the future, you will have the Deputy City Lord as your backing in Sky Wolf City. No one will be able to bully you. In the future, when you reach the Karma Realm, it will be easy for you to become a deacon in the City Lord Mansion."
"… Although I remember what happened that day, that person recognized the wrong person. Weren't you there too?"
Komodo's expression didn't change as he said respectfully.
'If I could tell you, I would have told you on the first day …' Komodo couldn't help but curse in his heart. Jiu Kun had specially instructed them not to fight amongst themselves. At the same time, their every move might be monitored by the Dark Parliament. If he betrayed Ning Qi and the rest now, he wouldn't have to complete his mission. Return to the Dark Parliament.
What awaited him at the headquarters was probably a very severe and terrifying punishment!
"Haha, the expressions on your faces at that time can be hidden from others, but don't even think about hiding it from me. Why do you think I suddenly promoted you to be my personal bodyguard?"
Deacon Xiao Ri sneered. In the next moment, Komodo realized that there were a few more figures around him. They formed a circle and surrounded the area.
Komodo's expression changed when he saw this. "For more than half a year, I couldn't even find out where any of them came from. Do you think there's something wrong with them? Similarly, I have also investigated your background. Guess what? Just like them, I couldn't find any traces of your appearance. Ha.
Haha, you still want to say that you don't know them? "
Xiao Ri Deacon let out a cold sneer.
