Chapter 505: Liu Junxin Gets Too Deep into the Role
The moment Jiang Guan croaked, all the Spiritual Energy burst forth uncontrollably.
Dong Xia didn't bother to control it; after all, the Copper Bell was there to block it, so it wouldn't cause any damage.
"Boom!" A resonant sound echoed out, the Copper Bell trembled hugely, waves of sound vibrations spread out, nearly reaching across the entire planet.
Everyone was looking up and listening attentively, trying to discern the origin of this sound.
Cui Baiyi opened the Copper Bell and laughed when she saw Dong Xia; obviously, Dong Xia had won.
"Judge Dong, congratulations," Cui Baiyi said to Dong Xia with a smile.
Dong Xia looked at Cui Baiyi and gave a slight nod.
Cui Baiyi wasn't wrong; according to the Soul Capture Pavilion's rules, once a Judge Candidate Envoy defeats or kills the incumbent Judge, they can take over their position directly.
So now, she truly was the Judge.
"Thank you, Judge Cui, for giving Dong Xia this opportunity," Dong Xia said.
"I've given many people chances, many have failed, but you've succeeded, proving your capability. Only those who are capable can seize the opportunity," Cui Baiyi said with a smile.
Dong Xia didn't continue the conversation.
Killing Jiu Zhikong and then Jiang Guan, though all within her plans, was ultimately quite a pity.
Both Jiu Zhikong and Jiang Guan were talents cultivated by the Soul Capture Pavilion, costing an unknown amount of manpower and resources.
"Did you get Jiang Guan's Space Ring?" Cui Baiyi asked.
"I did."
"That's good. Submit Jiang Guan's Judge Order and you'll officially be in the right," Cui Baiyi said with a smile.
"I understand."
"Alright, the matter of Jiang Guan is settled. Now, I hope you can deal with Tang Rao's situation next. This young man hasn't shown any movements lately; not sure if he's up to some sly trick again. Go and check it out," Cui Baiyi said.
"Okay," Dong Xia nodded.
Although she was a Judge now, she still needed to follow Cui Baiyi's commands.
If she refused, Cui Baiyi would surely make a move against her, revealing her own strength in the process.
She didn't want to expose herself so soon, many things were still not fully confirmed.
Hearing Dong Xia's agreement, Cui Baiyi seemed very satisfied, the corners of her mouth lifted in a smile, a smile filled with triumph.
…
These ten days, for Tang Rao, were calm, were days of idleness to the point of boredom.
Ah, so the Central Emperor Realm is battling the Soul Capture Pavilion, but what does that have to do with me? I'm not joining in.
Oh wait, it seems like I am involved somehow.
"Yan Wei, how's it going?" In the Moon Base, Tang Rao sat on a recliner, pulling on a Sprite with a straw inserted, sucking loudly.
Tang Rao didn't know who he had heard it from, saying that practicing suction strength is very helpful for married life.
Damn, that sounds like something a dirty demon king would say, but Tang Rao thinks there's some truth to it...
I won't tell you why, basically, it's whatever you think it is.
"Almost there, the layout is complete," Yan Wei turned his head and said from in front of the supercomputer, "I've already had the first batch of weapons delivered; they should take effect today."
"That's good, I'm counting on this to make money," Tang Rao said with a laugh, he had promised Liu Junxin to make money with her.
If he doesn't earn her a billion first, knowing Liu Junxin's temperament, she will definitely make a fuss.
Liu Junxin's temper, Tang Rao knew all too well, where there's money, everything is negotiable.
The weapons that Tang Rao had Yan Wei produce were also super technology weapons, but compared to the previous gauntlets, their power was much inferior.
At best, they could unexpectedly take down a cultivator at the early stage of the Tribulation Crossing.
The initial quantity wasn't much, just a hundred.
The price wasn't high, five million spirit stones each, a hundred would be half a billion.
The goods have already been sold out through Illusion City, all to buyers from the Central Emperor Realm, now, just waiting for the market feedback.
Of course, Tang Rao could confidently say that both the Central Emperor Realm and Soul Capture Pavilion would go crazy for them.
This was something akin to firearms, easy to carry and even easier to hide.
But if you get shot with one unexpectedly, even a youngster in the Qi Gathering phase could take down a big-time cultivator at the early stage of Tribulation Crossing, without them being prepared.
For Soul Capture Pavilion, it would absolutely be a nightmare.
But, Tang Rao just wanted the Soul Capture Pavilion to feel the nightmare's approach. Wanting to start a war with Central Emperor Realm, huh? Wanting to collect a large number of corpses, right? Fine, then have them collect an extra share of their own people's corpses.
"Master Auntie, what are you up to?" Tang Rao contacted Liu Junxin within the Illusion City.
"Receiving~~guests, what's up?" Liu Junxin inquired.
Tang Rao: "..."
"Didn't you say sell weapons to make money? Here's a billion for you." Without waiting for Liu Junxin to respond, Tang Rao transferred it through the Illusion City.
"A billion!" A few seconds later, Liu Junxin finally yelled out loud.
To be honest, although she was a cultivator at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing and had earned quite some spirit stones, the fact that Tang Rao casually sent her a billion still made Liu Junxin a bit crazy.
"You know, Central Emperor Realm and Soul Capture Pavilion only just fought. My weapons business really started today. Deducting costs, I've made a three billion profit. I'll give you one billion, how about that? Sounds good, right?" Tang Rao said with a laugh.
"Xiao Rao, oh, my little sweetheart, you are truly brave. Tell me, how does your Master Auntie reward you? How about I dedicate myself to you?" Liu Junxin shouted.
Tang Rao: "..."
Give it a rest, you're really getting hooked on running that kind of place.
Do I not know you? If I agreed, God knows how you'd insult me.
"By the way, Master Auntie, could you do something for me?" Tang Rao said.
"When you accept someone's favor, you have short hands, fire away." Liu Junxin responded with a laugh.
"You know Dong Xia, right?" Tang Rao asked.
Liu Junxin paused for a moment before replying, "I know, what about her?"
From Liu Junxin's tone, Tang Rao seemed to hear other emotions.
"You know, Dong Xia used to be very good friends with Ajiu, like besties. Can you, you know, secretly investigate her for me?" Tang Rao spoke.
"Why did you think of investigating her?" Liu Junxin questioned.
"Why don't you ask about that, just tell me if you'll do it. A billion." Tang Rao said.
"Damn it, Tang Rao, what do you take me, Liu Junxin, for? Do you think you can buy me with a billion? I'm asking you, do you have anyone else's information that needs investigating? I'll take them on, a billion each, shoot as many as you've got." Liu Junxin rambled on.
Tang Rao: "..."
"Just this one for now anyway, and hey, be discreet about it, and don't let Dong Xia find out you're the one looking into her," Tang Rao instructed.
"I know, rest easy, us girls in places of flirtation are best at digging up various kinds of rumors. Once I've gathered the info, we'll find an interesting~room and I'll tell you in person..."
"Master Auntie, goodbye!" Tang Rao hung up abruptly, Liu Junxin was simply too much.
Do you have to take your role so seriously? Truly playing it off like a woman of loose morals.
