Chapter 2178: A Gentleman's Revenge, Even After a Million Years Is Not Too Late

"Senior, please look—this is the most detailed map of our entire Divine Realm!"

"It marks not only all the divine territories and divine provinces, but also the mystic realms, resource sources, and various clans and sects of each divine province!"

"Of course, only clans and sects of six stars and above!"

A jade slip was delivered to He Pingsheng's face.

He Pingsheng couldn't read it, so he gestured toward Gu Baiying with his lips.

Gu Baiying glanced at it and said: "Correct, it's the most detailed map!"

"How is it sold?"

The woman said: "The most detailed map of the Divine Realm is also the most expensive—it requires payment of three hundred pieces of high-grade divine gold!"

"That expensive?" Gu Baiying sucked in a breath of cold air.

"Three hundred pieces of high-grade divine gold—this damn thing is even more expensive than a sixth-grade divine artifact, right?"

"I don't need it that detailed!" Gu Baiying said: "Do you have a simple map?"

"Uh..." Ji Yue Ming looked at He Pingsheng.

"Such a big figure, and he can't even afford a map?"

"Why are you looking at me?" He Pingsheng said: "Do you think I can't afford it?"

"Let me tell you, I cultivate the Stingy Dao—do you understand or not?"

Ji Yue Ming shrank his head and hurriedly said: "Yes yes yes... the junior will switch it now!"

She then produced a green jade slip and handed it to Gu Baiying.

Gu Baiying looked at it, then nodded toward He Pingsheng.

"What's the price of this one?" He Pingsheng asked.

Ji Yue Ming said: "Senior, this one... just one piece of medium-grade divine gold will do!"

The detailed three hundred pieces of high-grade divine gold equals three million medium-grade.

The simple map only needs one piece of medium-grade!

The difference is enormous.

But He Pingsheng knew that even if it only required one piece of medium-grade divine gold, it was still too expensive.

No wonder it's a deceitful Divine Realm.

But He Pingsheng was still willing to part with one piece of medium-grade divine gold—he took out a high-grade piece and tossed it over: "Here... the extra is your reward!"

Ji Yue Ming's mouth twitched twice: You rewarded me?

I, the Divine King and Grand Elder of the True Merchant Guild, am I missing this one high-grade piece from you?

But she dared not speak in anger.

He Pingsheng waved his hand, leading Gu Baiying and Qian Zhu away.

Ji Yue Ming angrily said: "What damn senior, just a miser..."

He Pingsheng gave the map to Gu Baiying, who roughly located the Wuwang Sea and said: "Young Master, the Wuwang Sea is still quite far from this Tandang Immortal City!"

He Pingsheng asked: "If you fly, how long would it take?"

Gu Baiying said: "About two years!"

Then there's no way!

Can't we just take individual flying ships there?

If you take a flying ship between these small cities in the Divine Realm, you won't reach the Wuwang Sea without ten or even dozens of years.

"Alright!" He Pingsheng nodded and said: "This Tandang Immortal City permits flight, so we'll fly from here—remember not to..."

"Wait..."

He Pingsheng hadn't finished speaking when his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he said: "I've run into four old acquaintances!"

He spotted the four acquaintances at a glance.

Even if these four people turned to ashes, he would still recognize them.

When he first came to Tandang Immortal City, the old man at the ticket hall told him he could fly.

After he flew, he was immediately pressed down by these four impostors posing as guards.

That wasn't a big deal!

The key is, they also tricked him into being locked in a small dark room for a year.

And they made him lose some Dao arts.

Can this be tolerated?

A gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late.

A million years is not too late either.

Now that we've met them, we can't just let it go.

"Gu Baiying..." He Pingsheng stretched out his hand, pointed at the four people not far down the street, and said: "See those four people... trick them out of the city and capture them..."

"Oh right... if we can't trick them, just attack directly!"

"In this Tandang Immortal City, the oversight isn't too strict—lightly striking out is no problem!"

Here, not only can we fly, but we can also fight.

But destroying buildings in the city is not allowed.

"Alright..." Gu Baiying said: "Qian Zhu, take the Young Master out of the city and wait for me at the western gate..."

"Hehehe..."

After half an incense stick's time, outside the west gate of the city, He Pingsheng saw those four guys.

"Everyone!"

"Why are you arresting us?"

"We... have no grudge or enmity!"

The four people looked at He Pingsheng and Gu Baipin, yet they did not recognize him.

He Pingsheng smiled and said, "Still pretending not to know me?"

"Now, I give you a chance to recall properly!"

"Three breaths!"

"If you still can't remember who I am, I'll slap you all to death—no need to tell me!"

"Qian Zhu, you time it!"

"Yes!" Qian Zhu stared at these four people and said, "Start now!"

"Three!"

"Two..."

Pup-pup...

Pup-pup-pup-pup-pup...

The four people immediately knelt on the ground.

"Sorry... it was our fault back then, we shouldn't have deceived you!"

"My lord does not hold grudges against petty people—don't make an issue of it with us!"

"We were wrong!"

Slap-slap-slap-slap...

The four people began slapping their own mouths.

It seems they didn't forget, they just chose selective amnesia.

"Do you remember now?" He Pingsheng said lightly: "Back then, you tricked me into losing a thread of the Great Dao of Deception!"

"Now that I've seen you, this karma must be repaid!"

"Tell me, how do you plan to repay me?"

"Repay?" one person said: "This... fellow Daoist... this thing, it's not easy to repay!"

"Actually, the rules of our Divine Kingdom have always been like this—if you have the ability, go deceive others!"

"Being deceived, you can only say... you're just unlucky!"

"Or, you could deceive me too!"

He Pingsheng sneered: "Are you mocking me for lacking the ability to deceive you?"

"Rules—that's your Deceiver Divine Kingdom's rules, and they have nothing to do with me!"

"This is the first point!"

"Second, back then I was just a newcomer, you were bullying me, yet you thought it was your own ability?"

"If you have the ability, why don't you cultivate to the God Emperor realm?"

That person was instantly speechless.

He Pingsheng said: "What I care most about is, back then there were so many flying people in the sky—how did you know I didn't understand the rules, and why did you four specifically stop me?"

He Pingsheng had always wondered about this from the beginning.

Even now, he still doesn't know why?

That person's face twitched slightly bitter, saying: "We're not immortals, so of course we don't know!"

"But we have an insider!"

"In the ticket hall, that ticket seller is one of us!"

"Once a newcomer appears, that person tells the newcomer the whole city can fly freely, as long as someone flies out, he will relay the message to us, and we immediately detain these newcomers!"

"Ninety-nine percent of people dare not resist!"

He Pingsheng's face darkened: "Ah, so that's how it is!"

"The old man and his granddaughter who deceived me back then are both your people!"

"Yes!" the man said, "But... there actually isn't any old man and granddaughter—indeed, the one who deceived you is just a single person!"

"His appearance can change at will—it's all fake, deceiving you!"

He Pingsheng: …………

Good fellow!

The more I dig, the more terrifying it gets!

"Alright!" He Pingsheng sneered: "Now, I give you two options!"

"First, return our Dao arts to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the four people opposite instantly wore bitter expressions.

This Dao art is not an ordinary item—it cannot be returned once taken.

This thing is not easy to repay.

If one truly wants to repay it, there is only one way: primordial essence!

Take out some primordial essence and give it to others.

But if one condenses their own primordial essence, it equals damaging their Dao foundation.

Condensing a single thread is impossible—once condensed, it becomes a small lump.

Either purchase a lump of the Great Dao of Deception primordial essence to pay.

"What's the second one?" someone asked.

He Ping Sheng said: "Second, you go call that dead old man over for me, and then I can let you owe a little less!"

Ask for help!
