My Wife Divorced me At the Start but I Gained a Billionfold Repayment System Chapter 49 : Chapter 49

Chapter 49: The Gift

Within Qingfeng Sacred Land, Lin Changkong’s Decay of Spirit had yet to pass, and his aura remained weak.

“Since Fu Qitian has already left the Myriad Demons Mountain Range, Qingyu, go to the Tianji Pavilion and buy information on his current whereabouts.”

After giving Feng Qingyu her instructions, Lin Changkong turned to Wu Wuji at the side.

“Old Wu, I will be relying on you for this matter as well.”

“Mm.”

Since he had already waded into this muddy ss, there was no choice but to see it through to the end.

Just then, however, a figure appeared outside the Cave Dwelling. It was one of Lin Changkong’s disciples.

“Master, Xu Ruoshan, the Headmaster of the Myriad Dao Academy, requests an audience.”

“Xu Ruoshan? What is that fellow doing here?”

Lin Changkong was no stranger to Xu Ruoshan’s na.

Yet after thinking it over, he could not figure out what dealings he had with the man. Still, it would not be proper to refuse him outright, so he could only wave his hand and signal for the disciple to bring him in.

Before long, Xu Ruoshan was led into the Cave Dwelling by the disciple.

The mont he saw Lin Changkong, Xu Ruoshan put on a polite smile and said, “Congratulations, Daoist Friend Lin, on breaking through to the Saint Emperor Realm.”

Lin Changkong hurriedly rose to his feet and did not dare show the slightest neglect.

“I greet Senior Xu.”

After all, he had only just broken through to the Saint Emperor Realm, whereas Xu Ruoshan had already been settled at the Peak of the Saint Emperor Realm for many years.

Only after a round of polite exchanges did Lin Changkong reveal a puzzled look and ask, “May I ask whether Senior Xu’s visit today is for so important matter?”

At the ntion of serious business, Xu Ruoshan’s expression also turned solemn. He gave a light cough before finally speaking.

“I have co today for two reasons.”

“The first is that I heard Daoist Friend Lin has broken through to the Saint Emperor Realm, so I ca specifically to offer my congratulations.”

“The second is that I heard Daoist Friend Lin has a highly gifted disciple nad Feng Qingyu, so I ca especially to make her acquaintance.”

The mont Xu Ruoshan finished speaking, everyone present revealed expressions of surprise. Clearly, none of them had expected his purpose in coming to be this.

Feng Qingyu in particular felt her heart grow hot at once when she heard Xu Ruoshan’s words.

Xu Ruoshan was, after all, an existence at the Peak of the Saint Emperor Realm, a powerful figure who was on the verge of Ascending to the Immortal Realm.

How could she not be excited when such a person had co specifically to make her acquaintance?

“May I ask which one is Young Friend Feng Qingyu?”

Xu Ruoshan swept his gaze over the people present, and it did not take him long to lock onto Feng Qingyu.

Feng Qingyu imdiately stepped forward and bowed slightly toward Xu Ruoshan.

“This junior, Feng Qingyu, greets Senior Xu. Many thanks for Senior Xu’s regard.”

Xu Ruoshan sized Feng Qingyu up for a mont, and satisfaction appeared on his face.

It could only be said that Senior Lu truly had good taste. Feng Qingyu was indeed exceptionally beautiful.

But because Senior Lu had specifically said that his na was not to be revealed, Xu Ruoshan could only forcefully suppress those thoughts.

And now, he needed to find a suitable reason to hand over a large portion of his fortune to Feng Qingyu.

Very quickly, Xu Ruoshan ca up with an idea.

“Excellent. As expected of Daoist Friend Lin’s disciple. You truly are an outstanding young talent.”

Hearing Xu Ruoshan praise his disciple, Lin Changkong, as her master, naturally felt his face brighten with pride, and delight appeared on his face.

Then Xu Ruoshan turned to Lin Changkong and Wu Wuji, his expression turning sowhat requesting.

“Daoist Friend Lin, I would like to speak to your disciple alone about sothing. Might Daoist Friend Lin give us a little privacy?”

Lin Changkong’s brows imdiately furrowed slightly. Clearly, he could not imagine what Xu Ruoshan could possibly wish to discuss alone with his disciple.

For the sake of his disciple’s safety, he had been about to refuse, yet Feng Qingyu unexpectedly spoke first.

“Master, since Senior Xu has already said so much, please agree.”

“Besides, with Senior Xu’s strength, if he truly wished to harm , then even if Master stayed by my side, you would still not be able to protect , would you?”

“This... very well.”

Lin Changkong froze for a mont. After thinking it through carefully, he felt that it did make sense.

So after giving Wu Wuji a look, the two of them left the Cave Dwelling.

Once they had gone, Xu Ruoshan waved his hand and set up a Restriction Seal to prevent any eavesdropping.

“May I ask what matter Senior Xu wishes to discuss alone with this young woman?”

Feng Qingyu bowed slightly, her attitude respectful.

Xu Ruoshan’s expression grew solemn as he said, “To be frank, I have taken a liking to Young Friend Feng’s talent, so I wish to ask one thing of Young Friend Feng.”

“Senior Xu, please speak freely.”

“I wish for Young Friend Feng, after breaking through to the Saint Emperor Realm, to protect my Myriad Dao Academy for a thousand years.”

“Of course, I would not ask Young Friend Feng to protect the Myriad Dao Academy for nothing. Half of my accumulated resources are in here. Consider them your compensation.”

Xu Ruoshan took out his Storage Ring and placed it into Feng Qingyu’s hands.

At the sa ti, Lu Xunxian also heard the system’s notification sound.

“That fellow Xu Ruoshan handles things quite efficiently.”

After looking at what the system had returned and fusing it all together, even Lu Xunxian, at his current level, could not help feeling tempted.

At this very mont, even if an Immortal Emperor appeared before him, Lu Xunxian would dare fight it head-on.

“Hiss! Senior Xu, are those words truly serious?”

After taking the Storage Ring from Xu Ruoshan and inspecting its contents, Feng Qingyu’s breathing could not help growing rapid.

Although her master was now also a Saint Emperor expert, he had only just broken through. How could he possibly give her such precious things?

Without the slightest exaggeration, with so much of Xu Ruoshan’s accumulated resources in her possession, she could act without fear anywhere on Tiansheng Continent.

“Naturally, it is true. If Young Friend Feng fears that I will take the items back later, I can swear a Heavenly Dao Oath.”

Xu Ruoshan’s expression was solemn as he made as if to swear the oath on the spot.

Seeing that, Feng Qingyu hurriedly stopped him.

“Senior Xu, please stop. I believe you.”

“I agree. After I break through to the Saint Emperor Realm, I will protect the Myriad Dao Academy for a thousand years!”

To exchange a thousand years of protection for the Myriad Dao Academy for such a rich reward—any normal person would know how to choose, and Feng Qingyu was no exception.

Seeing that Feng Qingyu had agreed, Xu Ruoshan finally revealed a satisfied expression.

“Very well. This old man ca only for this matter. Since it has now been settled, this old man will take his leave first.”

He was already impatient to go back and hand his disciples over to Lu Xunxian for guidance.

“Farewell, Senior.”

Feng Qingyu watched Xu Ruoshan leave just like that, her heart filled with excitent.

At that mont, Lin Changkong also hurried back in. Looking at Feng Qingyu with a grave expression, he asked, “What exactly did Senior Xu say to you?”

After hesitating for a mont, Feng Qingyu finally answered, “Reporting to Master, Senior Xu ca in hopes that after I break through to the Saint Emperor Realm, I will protect his Myriad Dao Academy for a thousand years.”

After saying that, she took out a Storage Ring.

“And as compensation, Senior Xu gave these.”

Lin Changkong took the Storage Ring from Feng Qingyu and swept it with his Divine Sense. Sowhat surprised, he said, “I did not expect Xu Ruoshan to be so generous. Two Spirit Talismans containing his full-strength strike in exchange for your protection of the Myriad Dao Academy for a thousand years.”

Inside the Storage Ring were only two Spirit Talismans containing Xu Ruoshan’s full-strength strike. As for the rest, Feng Qingyu had already hidden them in her own Storage Ring.

She was not stupid. If her master learned that most of Xu Ruoshan’s accumulated resources were with her, he would likely try to seize them.

So, to avoid her relationship with her master deteriorating, she could only do this and hope that he would never learn the truth.
