"I understand Elder Shen’s intention. This matter isn’t a big problem. As long as Elder Shen has sothing to exchange for Demon Evils, you shall have three Demon Evils in your hands within half a month."
Ji Tianlu’s expression was solemn.
Half a month. This tifra wasn’t too long and fell within Shen Changqing’s expectations.
However, he had the Pure Spirit Jade Pendant as proof of slaying Demon Evils, which wasn’t an issue. But adding another two thousand rit Points for two more Demon Evils was sowhat problematic.
He looked at Ji Tianlu with a smile. "There will be tis when I’ll need to ask you for help, Defender Ji."
"What’s the matter?" Ji Tianlu raised his eyebrows, sensing an uncomfortable premonition.
Shen Changqing smiled. "I have the proof of slaying Demon Evils. However, regarding the two thousand rit Points, Defender Ji, you know I haven’t been with the Demon-Subduing Division for long, and frankly, I can’t really co up with that many. If you could help advance the sum, Defender Ji, that would be best. Rest assured, once I have enough rit Points in the future, I will certainly repay you promptly."
Upon hearing this, Ji Tianlu’s mouth twitched slightly. Two thousand rit Points! The other party really dared to ask.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford two thousand rit Points, but rather, would he really get them back after advancing them? Ji Tianlu felt this was probably like throwing a at bun at a dog—gone for good.
But, considering the current situation, he shook his head helplessly. "I can advance the two thousand rit Points for you, Elder Shen, but I also hope you’ll repay them as soon as possible. I don’t have many rit Points to spare myself. Furthermore, so of the day-to-day expenses of the Mountain-Breaking City Demon-Subduing Division have to be advanced by us before the Imperial Court provides the funds. I hope you can understand this, Elder Shen."
"I always keep my word." Shen Changqing’s smile widened; having soone advance the two thousand rit Points was ideal.
As for when to repay them, he would certainly do so when he earned enough rit Points; he wasn’t soone who would default on his debts.
Looking at Ji Tianlu’s pale face, he took out the last Nirvana Fruit. "I acquired this Nirvana Fruit in the Heavenly Realm. This is the last one I have. I’ve heard this Spirit Fruit is very effective for injury recovery, but I’m not sure if it can be of so help to you, Defender Ji."
There was no use keeping the Nirvana Fruit. Even though it was a Holy dicine for healing, Shen Changqing felt he didn’t need it right now. Ji Tianlu was, after all, a pillar of Mountain-Breaking City, and he had also agreed to advance two thousand rit Points for him. Considering both sentint and reason, giving him a Nirvana Fruit was only proper.
"The Nirvana Fruit!" Ji Tianlu looked at the Spirit Fruit, his expression changing slightly. "Indeed, the Nirvana Fruit is a Holy dicine for healing. I don’t wish to take unfair advantage of you, Elder Shen. Let’s value this Spirit Fruit at three hundred rit Points. In the future, Elder Shen, you will only need to repay one thousand seven hundred rit Points."
"Sounds good," Shen Changqing responded, tossing the Nirvana Fruit over.
Ji Tianlu caught it deftly and, without hesitation, consud it imdiately.
After a mont, so color returned to his pale complexion.
"The Nirvana Fruit is indeed potent. Just this one fruit can save several months of recovery ti. Unfortunately, the Spirit Fruit’s efficacy is still a bit too low. If it were two grades higher, perhaps my injuries could have healed instantly," Ji Tianlu lanted.
The Nirvana Fruit was potent, but for a King Rank Defender Envoy, its effects were still limited. Especially with the injuries he had sustained from Shimohe, which were not so simple to heal, the help provided by the Nirvana Fruit was even more minimal.
However, even so, being able to shorten his recovery by several months was still very good for Ji Tianlu.
Defender Envoys don’t have long lifespans. Several months were not ti they could easily afford to waste.
His complexion now a bit ruddier, his voice also sounded slightly more robust as he spoke.
"Elder Shen, you can rest assured and stay in Mountain-Breaking City for the ti being. Should you have any needs, feel free to talk to or Defender Xun. Mountain-Breaking City will do its best to et them. But at the sa ti, I hope that when Demon Evils attack or other malicious individuals cause disruptions, Elder Shen, you would step in to suppress them. After the matter is resolved, the reward will certainly not be lacking," he added.
Favors were favors, and interests were interests. Shen Changqing, after all, was not a mber of Mountain-Breaking City, nor was he an ordinary Demon Hunter. His identity was that of a Martial Pavilion Elder.
It was well known that the people of the Hidden Heart Pavilion were almost considered transcendent beings who rarely interfered in the affairs of the Demon-Subduing Division, unless it was a matter of life and death that required them to act. However, within the Demon-Subduing Division, only Dongfang Zhao could forcibly command mbers of the Hidden Heart Pavilion. Ji Tianlu also knew he lacked the authority to forcibly command mbers of the Martial Hall.
Therefore, when conversing with Shen Changqing, he maintained an equal footing and proposed an exchange of benefits.
"No problem," Shen Changqing readily agreed.
He had already planned to stay in Mountain-Breaking City. If there were benefits, all the better.
Afterward, Shen Changqing asked, "Are there any Grandmaster Level Martial Arts recorded in the Demon-Subduing Division here?"
"Grandmaster Martial Arts?" Ji Tianlu was taken aback for a mont, then nodded. "Although Mountain-Breaking City cannot compare with the Capital City, the Scripture Pavilion does indeed store Grandmaster Martial Arts. With your status, Elder Shen, if you truly need them, you can go and access them yourself."
