890 The Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod and the Eight-Nine Arcane Art Are More Compatible (1)
Zhou Shu looked at Zheng Chengan with a strange expression.
Zheng Chengan wants to be a great hero of the human race? He even wants my help with it?
What kind of person does he think I am?
But then again, it’s not impossible.
As long as he gives me enough benefits, I don’t mind helping him.
After all, Zheng Chengan is also my worker. I can’t favor one over the other, can I?
“You’re not an outsider, so I’m only telling you this,” Zhou Shu said. “I did Ji Lutian a small favor, but he agreed to give me half his gains for the next thirty years.
“If you’re willing to agree to this condition, then I can help you too.”
“Give you half of everything I gain in the next thirty years?” Zheng Chengan frowned slightly. “Does that mean Old Ji became your subordinate?”
“You can’t say that.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “It’s just cooperation. If you’re willing, we can naturally cooperate. If you’re not, it’s fine. I don’t lack this business anyway.”
Zhou Shu shrugged with an indifferent expression.
Zheng Chengan snorted. “Old Ji is willing to go all out. What am I afraid of? My status can’t compare to Old Ji’s.”
Zheng Chengan didn’t take himself too seriously. Actually, what he said was right. Ji Lutian wasn’t an ordinary person. If he could lower himself to work for Zhou Shu, there was no need for him to be reserved.
Zheng Chengan added, “But King Zhou, if I give you half my gains for the next thirty years, you have to give me the same benefit as you gave Old Ji.”
“That’s impossible.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “This matter was a coincidence. Even if Ji Lutian and I go to the Demon Realm again, we might not be able to achieve this result.
“It’s not difficult for you to make a name for yourself among the human race, but if you want to be a savior, it depends on the opportunity.”
Winning thirty years of peace for the human race was a monstrous contribution that could only be chanced upon by luck. Even Zhou Shu wasn’t confident that he could do it again.
“If you can’t do this, why should I pay the same price as Old Ji?” Zheng Chengan said.
“I can give you a discount, but what you get depends on the price you pay. The more you pay, the more you get,” Zhou Shu said with a smile.
“How much will it cost me to get the head of a Demon King?” Zheng Chengan asked.
“A Demon King’s head is cheap.” Zhou Shu thought for a moment and said, “How about this? Give me half of all your gains for the next three years, and I’ll let you kill a Demon King in public. What do you think?”
Zheng Chengan lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Although he was the leader of the Sima Grotto-Heaven, it wasn’t easy for him to kill a Demon King with his strength.
If he could really kill a Demon King in public, he would definitely become famous among the human race, just like Emperor Yuan Feng. Now, which human wouldn’t give a thumbs-up when Emperor Yuan Feng was mentioned?
This reputation might only be an honor to ordinary people, but to people who cultivated the Dao of Incense, it was an opportunity to increase their strength.
“Can you really do that for me?” Zheng Chengan asked solemnly.
He actually didn’t know much about Zhou Shu’s strength. The reason he came to find Zhou Shu was that what Ji Lutian had done previously was too shocking, so he wanted to test Zhou Shu.
“If I can’t do it, you don’t have to pay for it.” Zhou Shu smiled. “Doing business is about reputation. Don’t worry. I won’t lie to you.”
“Alright, I agree!” Zheng Chengan gritted his teeth. Isn’t it just half of what I gain for three years? It’s worth it for an increase in strength!
“You’ve made the right decision.” Zhou Shu gave him a thumbs-up. “The faster you start on the Dao of Incense, the greater the benefits. Otherwise, it will be too late to take action after others have gained the believers’ worship.”
Zheng Chengan nodded and said, “How are you going to help me?
“Will you capture a Demon King alive and let me kill him? In that case, I’m afraid the effect won’t be good, right?”
“Of course not. Of course, it’s better for you to do this yourself.” Zhou Shu smiled. “I’ll lend you a Time Saber. Under this saber, ordinary Demon Kings will definitely not be able to dodge.”
Then Zhou Shu pointed. “Don’t move!”
Zheng Chengan subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he heard Zhou Shu shout.
His heart skipped a beat as he forced himself not to dodge.
At this moment, Zhou Shu’s finger, shining with white light, touched Zheng Chengan’s glabella.
Zheng Chengan only felt a ball of bright light explode in his consciousness, and countless mysterious thoughts ran wildly in his consciousness.
A long River of Time seemed to appear in his eyes. The endless information made him feel a little dizzy.
“This…” Zheng Chengan’s expression changed drastically.
“This is the Heavenly Emperor Jade Book. With your strength and the Heavenly Emperor Jade Book, killing a Demon King isn’t a problem. As for what to do, I don’t need to teach you, right?” Zhou Shu said with a smile. “I’ll lend you this Heavenly Emperor Jade Book for twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours, you’ll forget everything about it.
“Also, don’t try to record it between now and then. It won’t be good for you.”
Zhou Shu said it casually, but Zheng Chengan’s heart trembled.
