"How so?" Qin Zhengyang's voice was cold. As the city lord of Myriad City, he did not need to give Si Yusheng any face. Yi Yun was a guest he had invited. Even without Princess White Fox's relationship, Qin Zhengyang would not allow Yi Yun to be put in a difficult position in his residence. If news of that were to spread, how could he still be the city lord?
"Haha, City Lord Qin, you are guarding against me. Don't worry. Although I, Si Yusheng, do not usually care about relationships, that depends on who I am dealing with. How can I not give face to City Lord Qin? Furthermore, Young Master Yi is a genius. You had some misunderstandings with Haoyu in the past. Although the matter has been resolved, this matter concerns my Myriad Immortal Pavilion. I have to clean up the mess. City Lord Qin, don't worry. The solution I propose is a good thing for Young Master Yi. "
As Si Yusheng spoke, a golden beam flashed in his hand. A golden scroll appeared in his palm as it floated in midair.
The golden scroll slowly unfurled. It was filled with colorful Dao patterns that looked extremely mystical.
Si Yusheng said, "This is a soul contract. It was prepared for Young Master Yi. Haoyu was indeed in the wrong, but isn't his punishment too severe? Young Master Yi, you have to give me an answer to the Myriad Immortal Pavilion!"
"This contract has two clauses. One is that Young Master Yi promises that you will never be an enemy of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion. As long as the Myriad Immortal Pavilion disciples do not take the initiative to offend Young Master Yi, Young Master Yi is not to attack any Myriad Immortal Pavilion disciple."
"The second clause is that Young Master Yi has to serve the Myriad Immortal Pavilion for six hundred years. After that, you are free to leave or stay. During these six hundred years, my Myriad Immortal Pavilion will treat you as a core disciple or Elder. We will provide you with any cultivation resources you need, as well as alchemical ingredients. However, if my Myriad Immortal Pavilion needs any pills, we will have to trouble Young Master Yi to help us without any objections. Therefore … during these six hundred years, Young Master Yi is not to leave Myriad City as he pleases. If you wish to leave, you will have to apply to the Elder Consortium. "
"As long as Young Master Yi signs it, all our grudges will be written off!"
As Si Yusheng spoke, the contract floated towards Yi Yun.
People like Zhou Baifeng and Zhang Zhiyuan were somewhat disappointed when they heard the contents of the contract. It was not even considered a punishment for Yi Yun.
There was no need to mention the first condition. It did not restrict Yi Yun at all.
As for the second condition, although it was a tiny punishment for Yi Yun, it was something that many people present wished for. The Myriad Immortal Pavilion had the treatment of an Elder. Any alchemical ingredients would be prepared for Yi Yun. One had to know that the cultivation of alchemists expended a great deal of resources. Many pills were ruined during the refinement process, resulting in a great loss of wealth. And if one did not attempt to refine them, it was impossible to improve one's alchemical skills.
Although there were some restrictions on freedom, compared to the benefits, it was bearable.
Upon hearing Si Yusheng's words, Fairy Purple Rain frowned as well. With Si Yusheng offering such conditions, the Guiyuan family's advantage was greatly reduced. In order to entice Yi Yun, they had to raise the stakes.
"From the looks of it, this Si Yusheng has restrained himself a little. By doing so, he can maintain the Myriad Immortal Pavilion's reputation and also gain an alchemist. It will be very beneficial for the Myriad Immortal Pavilion."
People discussed in whispers on the cruise liner, but they never expected Yi Yun to shake his head and say, "Sorry, I can't agree to your condition."
He rejected her outright, not even giving her a tactful reason.
Oh?
Si Yusheng's sword-like eyebrows pricked up. He had tried his best to repress his temper today, giving Yi Yun enough face. However, Yi Yun had gone overboard. How could he not agree to such generous conditions?
"If it's only the first condition, I can completely agree to it. But the second condition is absolutely impossible. Ignoring the fact that six hundred years is too long, just your promise of providing me with all the cultivation resources and alchemical ingredients is something that, to be honest, I do not believe. I actually do not believe that the Myriad Immortal Pavilion has the ability to provide me with the cultivation resources and alchemical ingredients."
Yi Yun had now cultivated to the Dao Palace realm. Due to the existence of the World Tree, the Supreme Nine-treasure Pagoda, and the four nine-leaf Dao fruits, the resources he expended were becoming more and more exaggerated. It far exceeded warriors at the same realm as him. How could the Myriad Immortal Pavilion afford it?
Although Yi Yun was speaking the truth, his words sounded like mockery and mockery to Si Yusheng's ears.
He had already lowered his stance today, but Yi Yun had smacked him in the face. This infuriated Si Yusheng.
He suddenly laughed, but his laughter was filled with coldness and killing intent. "Good! Good! Good! People say that you are insolent. Today, I have truly widened my horizons. A junior warrior like you actually thinks so little of my Myriad Immortal Pavilion. City Lord Qin, I have already given you enough face, but Yi Yun does not appreciate it! "
How could Si Yusheng let the matter rest after being offended by Yi Yun? In his eyes, if not for City Lord Qin, Yi Yun would have long been a corpse.
City Lord Qin sighed slightly. He originally believed that Yi Yun would agree, but he never expected him to say such words. How could Si Yusheng not be infuriated?
"Uncle Qin, it's impossible for Yi Yun to agree to such conditions." Princess White Fox transmitted her voice softly. From her understanding of Yi Yun, what he said was not an exaggeration. The Myriad Immortal Pavilion obviously did not have the ability to do so.
"Wuxia, even you say the same?" City Lord Qin was obviously inclined to believe Princess White Fox. Since Princess White Fox had said so, he did not think that Yi Yun was going overboard. Besides, regardless of anything, Yi Yun was his guest. He naturally had to protect his guest.
"Si Yusheng, since Yi Yun does not agree to your contract, let's call it a day. According to Myriad City's rules, one must be willing to lose a bet. Besides, this bet was proposed by Zuoqiu Haoyu. It has nothing to do with Yi Yun. Even if your Myriad Immortal Pavilion is disgraced, it is because of Zuoqiu Haoyu and not Yi Yun."
City Lord Qin's words had already expressed his stance. Everyone understood that it was impossible to touch Yi Yun at the zither recital today.
It appeared as though Si Yusheng could only return in defeat.
However, Si Yusheng was overbearing in his actions. He was never willing to suffer a loss. Today, he had come to City Lord Qin's manor to deal with Yi Yun in front of City Lord Qin. Did he not know that he would be hitting a wall?
As people were having such thoughts, Si Yusheng suddenly laughed.
"City Lord Qin, you said that one must be willing to lose a bet. I very much agree with that. In fact, this is the second time you have said that. Back when you restrained Zuoqiu Haoyu and maimed his hands, you said it once!"
"I previously said that I came to the zither recital today because of Young Master Wufeng's invitation. However, I forgot to explain that the reason why Young Master Wufeng invited me to the zither recital is because he lost his hands in a bet with someone at Myriad Immortal Palace. Today is the day for him to have his hands chopped off. Therefore, Young Master Wufeng got me to seek City Lord Qin's help. However, before I could clarify the matter, City Lord Qin, you said that … one must be willing to lose a bet!"
Si Yusheng said those words in an unhurried manner, stunning everyone present.
