Chapter 857

Yang Yanqi: "Oh, it's really His Majesty the Founding Emperor! Yang Yanqi pays her respects to His Majesty the Founding Emperor~."

Wuqing: "Hey, the founding emperor of our dynasty! I pay my respects to His Majesty the Founding Emperor."

Zhao Kuangyin: "No need for such ceremony. After joining the chat group, we're all fellow Daoists now. By the way, you might consider handing over the contracts of your worlds to me, so I can rule

I've read your stories too. The emperors after the Song Dynasty are really hard to describe."

Li Shimin: "I'm jealous—again two Song Dynasties. How come I never run into so many Tang Dynasties?"

Sun Wukong: "There are plenty, but most Tang Dynasties are mythological worlds. Think you can take them down?"

Li Shimin: "Don't say it, Great Sage—my heart aches. Pity my cultivation base isn't high; there are so many worlds I just can't get my hands on!"

Yang Yanqi: "Your Majesty the Founding Emperor, I can't decide this matter on my own. I'll need to discuss it with my mother before making a decision."

Wuqing: "Same on my end. I'll have to talk it over with the Divine Duke before saying anything more."

Zhao Kuangyin: "Alright.

Su Xiao: "Once they start discussing it, I'm afraid it'll be difficult. Whether it's She Taijun or the Divine Duke, they're all blindly loyal people."

Li Shimin: "Hilarious! When something like this happens, I don't know whether to admire them or laugh."

Zhao Kuangyin: "

Mao Li: "By the way, are the things in Shangcheng real?"

Su Xiao: "You mean those cultivation methods, elixirs, and divine weapons, right?"

Mao Li: "Yes!"

Su Xiao: "Of course they're real."

Mao Li: "Then you all thought it was strange when I broke that utility pole? Judging by the product descriptions in Shangcheng, there must be plenty of people in the group who can blow up stars, right?"

Hu Yifei: "For us it's naturally not strange, but for ordinary people it's pretty outrageous."

Wuqing: "What?! Those things are real?"

Yang Yanqi: "An elixir of immortality actually exists?"

Zhao Zheng: "How is that anything unusual? The myriad worlds of the heavens hold boundless creation—this is just an immortality elixir, what's so strange about it!"

Wuqing: "It's the First Emperor!"

Zhao Zheng No. 2: "And not just one!"

Zhao Zheng: "Indeed!"

Yang Yanqi: "Three First Emperors?"

Su Xiao: "That's normal. By the way, if you want to cultivate, you can borrow points or take out a loan on a grotto-heaven."

Mao Li: "Loan sharks?! No way, is there really an organization like that in a chat group?"

Huang Rong: "It's normal borrowing, where would anything like that come from? It's just a few thousand points and one grotto-heaven—not worth much. Our family certainly wouldn't stoop to making money this way!"

Yaoyue: "Exactly. My husband casually refines a few elixirs, and ordinary group members have to save up for ten or a hundred years just to redeem one!"

Yotsuya Miko: "No need to doubt this, I can vouch for it.

Su Xiao: "Indeed, Brother Taixuan would never do something like that! He can casually earn hundreds of billions of points—what you all have is just a drop in the bucket!"

Mao Li: "Hundreds of billions of points? That's insane?"

Wuqing: "Billions? That's a lot."

Hu Yifei: "‖Even more than you imagine. In your ancient times, a hundred thousand made a 'yi,' right?"

Wuqing: "Right. Did later generations change their counting?"

Xia Mai: "It did. In modern times, ten thousand times ten thousand makes a 'yi.' That's a thousand times the ancient 'yi'!"

Wuqing: "At this rate, it's even more. Those Emperor Weapons and Emperor Scriptures—I can't afford them at all."

Yang Yanqi: "Yeah, points are so expensive. A hundred taels of gold for just one point, and now you can't even exchange gold for points anymore. My world doesn't seem to have anything valuable

either, I suppose.

Mao Li: "Same here."

Su Xiao: "Xiao Lan is doomed."

Zhang Taixuan: "No, isn't APTX4869 a specialty product?"

Hu Yifei: "Indeed. That thing can make people return to their youth."

Su Xiao: "But that drug has a high mortality rate too."

Zhang Taixuan: "A high mortality rate can be improved! Once the formula is in hand, nothing is a problem. A youth-restoring drug is still very valuable."

Mao Li: "Then I'll go find Xiao Ai when the time comes. Sigh, who would've thought Shinichi turned into Conan. Everyone (chitter-chitter), is there any way for Shinichi to recover?"

Su Xiao: "Recover? That should be pretty simple, right?"

Ouyang Mingri: "Indeed, it's simple. Both the martial path and the immortal path can stimulate the body's potential and expel certain adverse conditions. Perhaps cultivating the martial or immortal path could restore him."

Zhang Taixuan: "Normally that's how it is.

Hu Yifei: "Could there be an abnormal situation? Did unlucky Conan run into an inner demon?"

Mao Li: "What's wrong with Shinichi? Even cultivating the martial or immortal path can't restore him?"

Su Xiao: "Brother Taixuan, you're not trying to scare Xiao Lan on purpose, right? Just so you can play the hero saving the beauty!"

Zhang Taixuan: "? Am I really that shameless? Ouyang Mingri is right—the martial and immortal paths can indeed expel adverse physical conditions. But who told you that returning to one's youth is an

adverse condition?"

Mao Li: "Seems like it isn't!"

Su Xiao: "Indeed, returning to one's youth can't really be classified as an adverse condition, can it?"
