Chapter 1793
Lian Nihong's gaze sharpened.
She sat on the bare, rocky mountain, looking up at He Pingsheng, and only after a long while did she ask, "He Pingsheng, do you have any conscience at all?"
"You actually want me to swear an oath?"
"I, Lian Nihong, will never swear an oath to the Sovereign in this lifetime!"
He Pingsheng walked gently to Lian Nihong's side, squatted down, and said, "Senior... people's circumstances differ, so the standards for certain things differ as well!"
"Anyone, at any time, must respect your circumstances!"
"Of course, I am only making a suggestion. You don't have to swear; if you don't, this junior will leave right now!"
"Your cultivation base is too high, and I dare not bargain with a tiger. Please understand!"
After speaking, He Pingsheng stood up from his squatting position and bowed respectfully once more.
"He Pingsheng, wait!" Lian Nihong had to yield to the current situation, but she still attempted to salvage things: "No, when I was inside the Divine Dream Mountain, I saved your life!"
"I even taught you the art of flight, as well as the Divine Child Rhymes!"
"Do you... have no feelings for me at all?"
By the end, she had actually put on a pitiful, heart-wrenching expression.
He Pingsheng's servant, Li Canghai, suddenly stood up, looking at Lian Nihong with a face full of rage.
It looked as if he wanted to tear Lian Nihong apart.
He Pingsheng waved his hand to stop Li Canghai and said indifferently to Lian Nihong, "It is true that you saved my life, Senior, but don't forget that for me, that incident was an unprovoked disaster!"
"This karma was also caused by your fight with others!"
"As for the classics you gave me, the Divine Child Rhymes and the art of flight, I also gave you two mid-tier Divine Golds."
"I don't believe two mid-tier Divine Golds couldn't buy those things!"
In terms of value, these "Divine Child Rhymes" certainly had almost no value; after all, they were enlightenment reading materials for countless children throughout the Divine Realm.
How valuable could a widely circulated classic work be?
As for the art of flight, this thing was something everyone knew once they reached the Divine Imperial Stage; it belonged to the category of common goods and was worthless.
"Fine!" Lian Nihong said, "Even if these two things cancel each other out, you clearly promised me before that you would send me to the Drinking Bingshan!"
He Pingsheng shook his head and said, "Times have changed. At that time, Senior, you said you could kill me in an instant; I was coerced by you!"
"If you've forgotten, you can try to recall it!"
"I won't hold the coercion against you!"
"All in all, I have no intention of taking advantage of you, Senior. This junior is doing all this merely for self-preservation!"
"If you still cannot make a decision, Senior, then this junior will leave now!"
After speaking, He Pingsheng took two steps to the side!
"Come back..." Seeing He Pingsheng about to leave, Lian Nihong hurriedly called out to him and said, "Fine... I'll swear if I must, but I have a condition too!"
He Pingsheng said, "Speak!"
Lian Nihong raised her head, looking proud and petulant: "I can swear, but you are not allowed to dump me in Late City; you must send me to the Drinking Bingshan side!"
"Hmm... that's a bit far!"
"But... it's not too much trouble. I guarantee we can reach the destination within a year!"
"After we arrive, I will give you another large sum of Divine Gold!"
"How about it?"
He Pingsheng thought for a moment and said, "Fine, I agree!"
Then, Lian Nihong kept her promise and immediately swore an oath to the God of Sovereigns.
This oath was similar to the Heavenly Dao oath in the Immortal Realm, and one could say its effect was exactly the same.
Seeing Lian Nihong swear, He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief. He took out two low-tier 【Spirit Pivot Pills】 and gave them to Lian Nihong: "Eat them!"
"Restore your spiritual sense first!"
"That... Li Canghai, come over here for a moment!"
He led Li Canghai to the side and asked, "How is your spiritual sense recovery?"
Li Canghai said, "I've recovered about ten percent, but it doesn't hurt anymore. I will repair the rest when I have time later!"
He Pingsheng didn't speak, but took out his own nameplate: "From now on, you won't need the Divine Gold in your account either!"
"Transfer it to me first!"
This was a lesson learned from previous experience.
He Pingsheng's two previous servants, one named Sanyuan and one named Niuding, had both died too suddenly.
Among them, Sanyuan's Divine Gold hadn't even had a chance to be transferred.
To prevent such waste from happening again, He Pingsheng had learned his lesson this time and transferred the Divine Servant's Divine Gold immediately.
"Yes..." Li Canghai was respectful, without any displeasure.
He took out his own nameplate and transferred the points on it to He Pingsheng without reservation.
He Pingsheng looked at the jumping numbers, and his heart tightened suddenly: Hiss, hiss, hiss...
Forty-seven million!
Good heavens!
Good heavens indeed!
So much?
"Apologies, Young Master!" Li Canghai said with a face full of apology: "This old servant just distributed quite a bit of Divine Gold to the people below and my descendants a while ago!"
"There isn't much left!"
"But don't worry, Young Master, things like Divine Gold are actually quite fast to earn!"
He Pingsheng no longer knew what to say.
But upon further thought, perhaps for these people, it really didn't count for much.
Living for millions of years, saving ten Divine Gold a year would already be tens of millions.
"Hmm..." He Pingsheng nodded, "It's fine, it's not a small amount!"
"Continue restoring your spiritual sense!"
Thus, He Pingsheng waited in the wilderness for several days, and both of their spiritual senses recovered to about seventy or eighty percent.
Li Canghai waved his hand, took out a black Divine Boat from his storage space, and expanded it, turning it into a hundred-zhang-sized vessel floating in the void.
"You have a flying boat?" He Pingsheng was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, Young Master!" Li Canghai said, "This old servant has two more; I'll give them to you right now!"
He really took out two more flying boats.
These three flying boats were each second-tier Divine Artifacts.
One was of high-tier quality, and the other two were low-tier.
The one expanded was the high-tier one.
"Fine!" He Pingsheng casually took a low-tier one and said, "I'll try it later!"
The three of them jumped onto the flying boat.
The flying boat looked extremely luxurious from the inside; the gunwales were covered with all kinds of exquisite talisman patterns and array markings.
On the inner gunwales, there were eighteen low-tier Divine Golds serving as an energy source.
"Not bad!" Lian Nihong glanced at the large ship and pointed in a direction: "Let's go to Late City. How long will it take to arrive?"
Li Canghai said, "Three to five days!"
Under Li Canghai's control, the large ship rose slowly, and only after its altitude exceeded three layers of white clouds did it slowly accelerate forward.
This acceleration process was very slow, but very smooth.
They didn't arrive in three to five days; it was about the seventh day when this huge flying boat landed at a city gate of a large city.
A tall city gate!
Above the lintel of the city gate was a huge cyan stone tablet, engraved with six types of text in different languages.
He Pingsheng recognized one of the scripts; it read: Late City.
The large characters appeared in gold, with a vigorous style.
