108 You Are Rich? I Am Rich! (2/2)

I am afraid that you are a better liar than me.]

Ye Xiao acted worried, ”That may be a good reason. But I am afraid there is a mistake in it.”

Gu Jinlong thought, [This guy is not completely a moron after all. He is obviously asking for more benefits for himself by saying that.] However, he became more interested so he tried harder, ”Brother Feng, you see... Your master has spent nearly all his life to study the art of dan-making, yet now he has such a silly problem having no materials to produce the supreme dan beads... I think you surely can feel the pain in his heart, can't you?”

”Your master is feeling his life passing everyday. Even though he has the best dan-making skill in the world, he can only look at the empty stove and do nothing.

Such great skill has been only used several times and only to produce some Pei-Yuan Dan Beads... That is truly a waste of preciousness. It is a huge loss for the whole Land of Han-Yang... If your master dies namelessly, Brother Feng... you will be the sinner of the whole world.”

Gu Jinlong spoke grievously. He had apparently raised the meaning of this subject to a level of the whole world. Ye Xiao would become the sinner of the whole world if he didn't agree with Gu Jinlong.

Ye Xiao had abused all of Gu Jinlong's families in his mind, yet he showed sorrow on his face and said, ”That's true. Of course I know it well. I am actually suffering inside my heart...”

[You are just a moron.] Gu Jinlong sneered in mind, but he acted like he was empathizing with Ye Xiao, ”Yes. As his disciple, you are like his own son. Looking at your master dying slowly without achieving what he should have, the pain in your heart is something only you can understand...”

”However, it is different now.” Gu Jinlong pointed himself and spoke proudly, ”You got me now. There won't be any difficulty for you.”

”Because with my help, all your concerns will be solved once and for all.” Gu Jinlong got emotional and spoke seriously, ”Brother Feng, even though you need to lie to your master... Don't you want you master to have some happy days in the last years of his life? Won't it be your lifelong regret if you fail to take this opportunity for your master? If you can help your master leave a legend for himself in this world, you are helping him build a marvelous accomplishment, aren't you?”

”The long lasting glory. The enduring legend of dan-making. The myth of the cloud and sky.”

Gu Jinlong spoke in a deep voice.

Ye Xiao's face turned red because of his excitement. He nodded heavily and spoke quiveringly, ”That's right! That's what he deserves!”

He acted like he had been highly motivated by what Gu Jinlong said. It was like he was shameful, regretful, helpless and hopeful all at the same time. He nodded again and spoke loudly, ”That's it! To help my master achieve this glory and become the enduring legend of the world, I will do anything.

I, Feng Zhiling, will do whatever it takes, and whatever I do, it must be worth it!”

Gu Jinlong showed a smile on his face with satisfaction and confidence.

[The moron has finally been fooled by me...

Getting this thing done so easily, I, Gu Jinlong, am really going to be rich.]

But he didn't know that in Ye Xiao's mind, things were totally different.

[My acting skills are really in a god's level. Look at the stupid man. He has already been fooled badly by me, yet he is so happy about it. What a moron.

Getting this thing done so easily, I, Ye Xiao, am really going to be rich this time...]

”You and I, we are aiming for the same direction. We should work together to build the enduring legend of dan-making... Do you have any other concerns about this, Brother Feng?” Gu Jinlong was so confident. He knew that this thing was confirmed. He didn't expect he could be so lucky to get the Cosmic Hades and get some supreme dan beads at the same time.

It was like a wonderful dream to him.

”Hmm... I am not underestimating you, Brother Gu, but I wonder how many spiritual jades could you provide? How many precious medicines? How many priceless treasures? I just need to have a rough plan in my mind.” Ye Xiao swallowed and acted like he had made up his mind on this.

”Heh, heh. Brother Feng, it is normal that you have doubts on this. Well, what I can do, I'll leave that to your imagination. I can only give you a promise. No matter how many you want, I can give you all.”

Gu Jinlong spoke blandly.
