On the top of the tower.
Six-Eared Macaque, Long Zishan, and Li Xiang were tending to their wounds.
Xiangyu, Liu Xuanxin and the four other Ancient Tomb disciples were at a window each, keeping watch.
Chen Xiaobei was the only one leaning against the corner of a wall playing with his phone!
Of course, right now, Chen Xiaobei had become the mainstay of the group. He certainly must have had his own reasons for this distraction.
“The Three Realms Intranet covers all the three realms! Oh, it looks like I can connect to the Three Realms Red Envelope group!” Chen Xiaobei smiled.
Chen Xiaobei: Calling for Monkey King! Calling for Monkey King! I’m in trouble here and I’m in urgent need of monkey fur! ?
Normally, Monkey King would reply within seconds, but this time Chen Xiaobei had been waiting for nearly half a day and he still did not receive any return messages.
“Is Monkey King alright?” Chen Xiaobei frowned. “Ah, I better go ask the Brotherhood group!”
Chen Xiaobei: Brothers, who’s online? I really need a few strands of high-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur! Does anyone have any? Please send them to me via Red Envelope.
Xiao Tianquan: I don’t have it.
Goddess Chang’e: I don’t have any either.
Yanwang: I had one but I used it yesterday.
Chen Xiaobei: ? Do you guys know anyone who might have them? I really need it urgently!
Xiao Tianquan: There were no other Red Envelope Snatching Sessions after the King of Glory competition. Most people who received high-tier prosperous Monkey Fur had already used them!
Chen Xiaobei: Then what about my Bro Monkey King? Do you what he’s doing? When is he coming back?
Yanwang: I think he’s gone to complete a task assigned by Lady Nuwo. He just left this morning. Don’t think he would be back any time soon!
Chen Xiaobei: Oh no! The high-tier prosperous Monkey Fur are essential to my plan! Without them, my plan will be ruined!
Goddess Chang’e: God Chen, don’t panic! I know a person who might have the monkey fur, and I think that that person has more than just one!
Xiao Tianquan: That’s impossible! Monkey King gave out very few high-tier prosperous Monkey Fur. God Chen and I both did not get any. Who could’ve possibly gotten more than one?
Goddess Chang’e: Actually, that person did not get any during the last Red Envelope Snatching Session. But he’s known for being a Scrooge so he probably didn’t use any of the ones he had gotten previously! That’s why he probably has more than one high-tier prosperous Monkey Fur!
Chen Xiaobei: That’s great! Little sister Chang’er, please tell me who this person is. ???
Goddess Chang’e: Zhu Bajie ?
Yanwang: Yes! Yes! Yes! Why didn’t I think of him? Zhu Bajie has always been penny-pinching; he’s very tight-arsed! After the last calamity, there were no battles in the Heavenly Realm! So whatever treasures Zhu Bajie received, he didn’t use them for sure!
Xiao Tianquan: That’s makes things easy! Zhu Bajie has always been a crazy fan of Goddess Chang’e! She only needs to convince him and he would not even think twice to send the red envelope!
Goddess Chang’e: I don’t want to talk to that idiot! ? I’ve been keeping my distance from him for all these years so that he won’t come and harass me! If I make a move and contact him first, from today onwards, I will never have another peaceful day, and I might even die of being bugged by him!
Chen Xiaobei: Oh, don’t worry, little sister Chang’e! I can take care of this myself! You don’t have to do anything! ?
Goddess Chang’e: Hehe! God Chen is the most considerate! ?
Chen Xiaobei: I won’t be chatting with you guys then! I’ll go talk to him now! See you!
After he exited the Brotherhood group, Chen Xiaobei searched and found a mugshot of a very good-looking man, Zhu Bajie.
Chen Xiaobei: Second Shixiong! Are you there?
Zhu Bajie: God Chen! This is rare! Why have you come looking for me today?
Chen Xiaobei: One doesn’t visit a temple without a cause! I came to you this time to ask for a few strands of high-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur!
Zhu Bajie: Hey!!! How do you know that I have them?
Chen Xiaobei: I heard from the others that you have always been a person of prudence, and would never simply squander the Red Envelopes you’ve received!
Zhu Bajie: Aw! God Chen is most empathetic! I am prudent but people always speak ill and call me a miser!
Chen Xiaobei: But that ain’t true isn’t it? Second Shixiong is not stingy at all and is very generous, am I right?
Zhu Bajie: Yes! Yes! Yes! Of course I am very generous! ?
Chen Xiaobei: Since you’re so generous, can you send me a Red Envelope? ?
Zhu Bajie: Red Envelope? Wait a minute! Are you trying to trick me?!
Chen Xiaobei: No! You are so smart! Why would I dare to trick you? I’m just speaking the truth!
Zhu Bajie: Don’t even try! I’m not well read, so don’t try to cheat me! If you want high-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur, use your merit points to exchange for them! ?
Chen Xiaobei: What happened to being extremely generous?
Zhu Bajie: I… I am generous. But with Shen Gongpao monitoring closely, I cannot simply give you Red Envelopes without receiving merit points or we’ll be in a lot of trouble!
Chen Xiaobei: Fine. How many merit points for one? Tell me! Anything that can be solved with merit points is not a problem!
Zhu Bajie: My goodness! God Chen… did you get lucky recently? I feel like you’re exuding an aura of a loaded man!
Chen Xiaobei: You don’t need to care about that! Just give me a number! If you don’t want to sell it, I’ll just go find someone else then!
Zhu Bajie: Er, then that’ll be 100,000 merit points for one!
Chen Xiaobei: Wow! That’s daylight robbery! You’re taking advantage of my predicament huh, demanding such an exorbitant price!
Zhu Bajie: That is the market price! Shen Gongpao stipulated that the more effective the content of a Red Envelope, the more impact it will have on the earthly realm. That’s why it should be exchanged for more merit-points!
Chen Xiaobei: Don’t use Shen Gongpao’s name to try con me! I think you must really be a damned tight-fisted miser!
Zhu Bajie: I am not lying to you, really. If don’t believe me, you can pray to the merit points ledger and see how much it costs!
Chen Xiaobei: Fine, I’ll pray! If you lie to me, I’ll ask Monkey King to take kick your ass!
Chen Xiaobei put his phone away, closed his eyes and began to pray in silence.
“To the high heavens, I, Chen Xiaobei am encountering something bad! I’m willing to use my merit points to exchange for protection from heaven!” Chen Xiaobei muttered.
When most people prayed, they would have not gotten any response from the heavens! This was because those with enough merit points would receive protection naturally! Prayers were never effective for those who did not have enough points!
Of course, Chen Xiaobei was no ordinary man!
He was the disciple of The Prime of Tongtian, and he had the Three Realms’ hotspot connected to his cellphone!
Ding!
After a few seconds, a clear ringing suddenly rang in Chen Xiaobei’s mind.
After that, a shocking image appeared in his mind.
A giant book gleaming in auric splendor descended from the skies.
The size of the book was as vast as the sea and the mountains, and written on it were three words – merit points ledger!
