Indeed, it should be a token.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dared not exaggerate further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly because he hadn't even dreamt that a couple of hundred million would be considered a token.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This level was too high for him, a Daluo; he couldn't reach it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't say he didn't have two hundred million, could he?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even one hundred million was a struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Gu Jin having given close to ninety million, could he even be worth that many spirit stones by selling himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Friend Jiang accepts the kindness of our academy very quickly, mainly because I truly find you pleasing,\" the dean said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, a couple of hundred million was just a casual transaction stake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subconsciously, he considered the other party as a representative of some great senior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A couple of hundred million spirit stones were probably just a few spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn't mind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao smiled and nodded, then looked towards Xiang Hongyu, somewhat embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't have two hundred million for the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Hongyu was holding her mouth with the back of her hand at the time, trying to laugh but strenuously holding it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was a public place, and she really couldn't laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn't expected that in the end, Jiang Hao would face such a predicament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a few spirit stones, come, Friend, first take a look at the spirit herbs, if you need something else, we have more here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Definitely to your satisfaction,\" the dean said smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao dared not look further; if he had to take another hundred million, what should he do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were enough, very enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Friend Jiang, let me have someone start the process, since this is our first time dealing with such transactions, they probably lack experience too, so it might take a day or two.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"During this time, feel free to make any requests.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you'd like to tour the Western Astronomical Academy, that's perfectly fine too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my token, have Miss Yan show you around,\" the academy director said as he took out his token and handed it to Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could say that the other party was extremely courteous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very courteous, indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the director of the Western Astronomical Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, why would he personally accompany me here and offer whatever spirit herbs I want?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spirit stones were merely a formality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only pity was that this formality required two hundred million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, I am penniless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When had I ever been so poor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems I shall have to borrow money from the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they don't have enough spirit stones, I'll have to ask Miss Yan for a loan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she doesn't have enough either, what should I do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would other Daluo immortals laugh at me when they see me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, the academy director left, and Yan Yuezhi said to Jiang Hao and his companions:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do the seniors plan on doing anything else?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's look at the Corpse Realm Flower,\" Jiang Hao composed himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, I haven't left yet, there's still time to get it from the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should I ask my sect for reimbursement?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao turned to look at the person next to him, who was smiling at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reimbursement seemed rather difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Corpse Realm Flowers are this way, please follow me,\" said Yan Yuezhi as she led the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, these two people came here for a real purpose, which is tied to these complex matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What exactly is inside, she couldn't say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jiang Hao Tian, he was different from the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could see things far beyond anyone in the four regions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, Jiang Hao and another followed behind Yan Yuezhi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was then that Jiang Hao lightly touched the Heavenly Note Sect officer and said, \"Senior sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm,\" the Heavenly Note Sect officer nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We need two hundred million,\" Jiang Hao reminded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm,\" she nodded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two hundred million,\" Jiang repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard you,\" said the Heavenly Note Sect officer, pausing as if she just realized something, \"Don't you have any?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Jiang Hao admitted truthfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought your spirit stones were inexhaustible,\" the Heavenly Note Sect officer asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao was silent for a moment, then said, \"This is a sect mission.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You'd have come even without a mission,\" she stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the Heavenly Note Sect officer handed Jiang Hao a storage bag and said, \"I'll lend you eighty million.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was that all the money going out then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The director said a bit of one or two hundred million should be fine, shouldn't just one hundred million be okay?\" the Heavenly Note Sect officer said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao fell silent again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People were just being polite saying one, how could he shamelessly agree to one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it somewhat totaled up to two hundred million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I've never been so rich before, but alas, I'll soon be poorer than ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If others from Daluo see this, they'll laugh until they can't close their mouths,\" the voice of the Heavenly Note Sect officer came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're here,\" Yan Yuezhi's voice suddenly arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, Jiang Hao looked ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a mountaintop, full of Corpse Realm Flowers, but all sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao felt that without the seals, perhaps these Corpse Realm Flowers might transform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was all the Corpse Realm Flowers of the West, add those of the North and the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If all the Corpse Realm Flowers were gathered, could something terrifying occur?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao wasn't sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had a feeling that gathering them all wasn't wise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll take a look inside,\" Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he closed his eyes, his divine sense moving ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, Jiang Hao crossed through the gate made of Corpse Realm Flowers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He arrived in front of the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon arriving, he was somewhat astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he looked ahead, he saw an almost entirely occluding hollow face, lying sideways there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if laying down watching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This huge face startled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon he realized that it was a corpse floating within the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recommendation for a new book, which you are sure to like \"Empress Your Highness, Are You Also
