4236: Helping an outsider

Helping an outsider

Today, he had originally made up his mind to make Ling Chuxi reap nothing. In order to prevent people from saying that he was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge, he did not let Shangguan wuyou be present. Otherwise, with the financial resources of the Shangguan family, he could have helped him tide over this difficult period. Unfortunately, Shangguan wuyou was not here and he did not have that much money on him, so he could only stall for a while.2

Elder Gong made up his mind. Once this matter was over, he would immediately return to the heavenly divination sect. He would slowly owe the tens of millions. He just didn't give what he owed. Hmph Hmph, what could anyone do to him?

Unfortunately, although Elder Gong's plan was good, others were not willing to let him do as he wished.

"Ahem, we're still the elders of the Council. What we say is like water that has been spilled. What you're doing is bad for the Council's reputation." Ji Shiyuan coughed twice and said to Elder Gong in a serious tone.

Are you even a member of the Council? why are you helping an outsider against your own people? Elder Gong flew into a rage and almost cursed. However, when he thought about it, he was indeed in the wrong. Ji Shiyuan was an array master, and he happened to be at a critical juncture. His position in the aristocratic family's Arbitration Council was not much lower than his own, so he could only swallow his anger.

In fact, he also knew that the reason why Ji Shiyuan was helping an outsider was that he had used someone else first. The other party was just returning the favor.

You're ruthless! Elder Gong secretly cursed in his heart. He took out a crystal-like stone and threw it to Ling Chu Guang,"this is for you. It's enough to match those tens of millions of five-colored spirit stones."

"What is this? You want to send someone off with a broken stone?" Ling Chuxi took the stone and examined it. She almost threw it back at Elder Gong's head.

The size of the stone wasn't bad. It was the size of a fist and contained some spiritual Qi, but it was still a little inferior to an ordinary five-colored spiritual stone.

Even if you're the ruling elder, you can't just take out a piece of broken crystal to fool people. You're too much of a bully.

Just as Ling Chuxi was about to throw the stone back, she suddenly saw Ji Shiyuan continuously blinking at her.

"You don't want it? if you don't want it, then give it back to me." Elder Gong was furious and reached out his hand.

"Forget it. Seeing how poor you are, I'll let you off this time." Ling Chuxi retracted her hand and took the stone back. Ling Chuxi's impression of Ji Shiyuan had changed greatly. She knew that he would not harm her, and there must be a deeper meaning behind his intense gaze.

"Hmph, you should be happy. If it wasn't for the fact that this old master didn't have that many spirit stones on him, you wouldn't have gotten such a big advantage." Elder Gong grumbled a few words unwillingly. He did not even look at Ling Chuxi again and turned to leave.

However, from the looks of it, he was not afraid that Ling Chuxi would go back on her words. Instead, he felt indignant in his heart and did not want to continue being entangled with Ling Chuxi.

As Elder Gong walked, he glared viciously at the faces of the aristocratic family disciples who were watching the show.

Seeing that Elder Gong had once again suffered Under Ling Chuxi's hands, the younger members of the aristocratic families were all extremely excited. They had originally wanted to join in the fun, but when they saw Elder Gong's unfriendly gaze, they quickly lowered their heads and slipped out dejectedly.

Elder Gong did not know what to do with Ling Chuxi. It would be too easy to deal with them. They did not want to bring unnecessary disaster to their family. However, before they left, they didn't forget to secretly wink at the people from the Ling Corporation and give them a big thumbs-up.
