Chapter 855: Resolving Disputes

~11 min read 2,056 words

The city where Chen Yachong and He Wu were located was the famous big city of Yunjhou, Meteorite City. The City Lord was an Integration stage cultivator.

When Lu Yang and his party found Chen Yachong, they happened to encounter He Wu also coming to find Chen Yachong.

"Chen Yachong, I tell you, don't think that just because I beat you twice, this matter is over. One million spirit stones of principal, 200,000 interest, you must give it all to me!"

In the luxury mansion, He Wu blocked Chen Yachong, with sharp swords floating in the air behind him, emitting a chilling coldness.

He Wu was also a sword cultivator.

"Two, wait a moment. Can you allow me to interject?" Fang Jin landed in the courtyard, causing He Wu and Chen Yachong to be vigilant.

"Who is it!"

"Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect, Fang Jin."

Hearing Fang Jin's self-introduction, He Wu's pupils shrank. Isn't he an early-stage Spirit Transformation cultivator? Does the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect need to send an Integration stage Fang Jin?!

Seeing Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou behind Fang Jin, he was even more stunned on the spot.

"You, you are Heavenly Talent Lu!" He Wu shouted excitedly, "I have seen you at the Sword Asking Ceremony of the Sword Building!"

Lu Yang's performance at the Sword Asking Ceremony directly made him the target pursued by all sword cultivators.

"So it is Fellow Daoist He Wu." Lu Yang pretended to have just recognized He Wu, but in fact, there were thousands of sword cultivators participating in the Sword Asking Ceremony; how could he recognize them all?

"Then you are Fellow Daoist Chen Yachong?"

"Yes."

Knowing the identities of Lu Yang and his party, He Wu and Chen Yachong restrained their arrogance as Spirit Transformation stage cultivators.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I heard that you borrowed money and didn't pay it back. Is there such a thing?" Lu Yang stepped forward and asked. He had roughly thought of a solution on the way here.

"There is such a thing, but I really don't have money now."

Lu Yang nodded and smiled, expressing understanding, and then asked He Wu: "Fellow Daoist He Wu, if Fellow Daoist Chen Yachong pays back the money, does he not need to be beaten?"

"That is natural."

"It doesn't matter if there is no money. Fellow Daoist Chen Yachong should know that our Congwendao Sect produces Forget-Love Pills every year, and the sales are good, in short supply."

"The biggest problem with Forget-Love Pills at present is insufficient production."

"To tell you the truth, Forget-Love Pills are refined with the blood of cultivators. You only need Fellow Daoist Chen Yachong to return to the sect with me, take medicine and bleed regularly. In less than ten years, you will be able to earn enough million spirit stones."

"Of course, it might be a little painful when bleeding, but with Fellow Daoist Chen Yachong's perseverance, you should be able to hold on."

Fang Jin looked at Lu Yang in shock. Is this how Forget-Love Pills are made? This doesn't sound like a proper path!

Observing Meng Jingzhou's expression again, it was indifferent, obviously feeling that this method was nothing!

"Junior Brother Meng, is there something wrong with the method you use to produce Forget-Love Pills?" Fang Jin secretly transmitted his voice to Meng Jingzhou.

"No problem. Look, we have been using this method for several years. Brother Fang hasn't heard of anyone running out to sue our Congwendao Sect for being inhumane, right? This shows that everyone is voluntary."

Fang Jin's face looked strange. Have you two always persuaded people like this before?

"No no no, I just don't have money for the time being." Hearing Lu Yang's words, Chen Yachong was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly said he had money.

"Where is the money?"

"Uh, I went to invest in Zhao Tianyi. He said he had a way to make money, and he could have 30% profit in one year. Now it's not due yet, so this money can't be taken back. When the money comes back, I can pay back He Wu with principal and interest."

Zhao Tianyi, Spirit Transformation stage cultivation, Sect Master and founder of the third-rank sect Tianyi Sect in Meteorite City.

"How about this, I will mortgage this map to you. I guarantee I can pay back the money!" Chen Yachong took out a piece of jade silk with several symbols drawn on it.

He Wu said with disgust: "Who wants this broken map? Do you think I don't know you bought this broken map at an auction? It's been several hundred years, and I haven't found the other two pieces yet."

"What if you are lucky." Chen Yachong said sheepishly.

"Can you let me see it?"

Lu Yang curiously took the jade silk map. The map was very simple, and it was impossible to tell where it was drawn.

Fang Jin had a lot of research on maps. He stretched his neck to observe for a while and judged: "It looks like a map from the early Great Qian period. There should be three pieces of the map in total. Only when the three pieces of the map are overlapped together is it the real map."

"How many spirit stones for this map? I'll buy it." Fang Jin liked ancient maps very much, especially since this was an ancient map from the early Great Qian period, which was even rarer.

"If you like it, I'll give it to you." Chen Yachong had no nostalgia for the map. He was only in the Foundation Establishment stage several hundred years ago. How many spirit stones could something obtained at a Foundation Establishment-level auction be worth? It's better to do a favor.

Fang Jin carefully put away the jade silk map and decided that no matter what, he would help Chen Yachong solve the problem this time.

At worst, when Chen Yachong is sent to the Congwendao Sect to bleed, he will also ask Junior Brother Lu to be lighter and not let Chen Yachong feel pain.

"Zhao Tianyi? Then let's go ask him for money."

When the five people arrived at Zhao Tianyi's place in a mighty manner, they really gave Zhao Tianyi a big fright, especially when he saw Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

These two often punished evil and promoted good in storytelling books, making evildoers terrified.

After figuring out the intention, Zhao Tianyi breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be just asking for money... wait, coming to ask for money is not a good thing either.

"Little Brother Chen, it's not that I don't want to give you your spirit stones. Your spirit stones have all been taken for investment. The spirit stones I have on hand are all used to maintain the daily expenses of the sect. You can't let my sect go bankrupt, right?"

"If you are not in a hurry, wait. After a while, the spirit stones can be taken out. That is a 20% profit."

Chen Yachong interrupted Zhao Tianyi's big pie: "Wait, what you told me before was 30% profit!"

Zhao Tianyi realized he had let it slip and smiled embarrassedly: "Isn't it because I was afraid that if I said less profit, you wouldn't be willing to invest? Anyway, when the time comes, you will earn 20% profit, right?"

Seeing Chen Yachong still gloomy, Zhao Tianyi hurriedly said: "By the way, by the way, this is a wooden box I brought back from the Far North. There should be good things hidden inside, but it's missing a key. I'll give it to you as an apology."

Chen Yachong rolled his eyes. What use did he have for this broken wooden box?

Seeing this, Lu Yang came out to smooth things over: "Alright alright, Fellow Daoist Zhao is also kind. Fellow Daoist Chen, let's just let this matter pass."

Seeing Lu Yang's face, Chen Yachong hummed a few times and let it pass.

Seeing this, Zhao Tianyi was overjoyed and gave the wooden box to Lu Yang.

"Who did you invest the money to?"

"Duan Qinghe, that kid has many ways to make money."

Duan Qinghe was also a Spirit Transformation stage cultivator in Meteorite City, but Chen Yachong was not familiar with him, while Zhao Tianyi was.

The group of people rushed to find Duan Qinghe without stopping.

Duan Qinghe's reaction was exactly the same as Zhao Tianyi's. Seeing such a big battle, he thought he had committed a crime and even alarmed Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

"So it's the one million spirit stones Zhao Tianyi gave me that you want. What are you in such a hurry for? Don't you want the 10% profit?"

"10%? You told me there was 20% profit!" Zhao Tianyi shouted.

Duan Qinghe scratched his head: "Isn't it because I was afraid that if I said less, you wouldn't give me money? Anyway, when the time comes, you will earn 10% profit."

"Then who did you invest the money to!"

Duan Qinghe pointed to He Wu who was standing at the end: "I gave it to He Wu. Isn't his loan interest 15%? I thought when the money came back, I would keep 5% and give you 10%."

He Wu: "..."

"Wait a minute, I have an IOU here."

Duan Qinghe took out a piece of animal skin from his storage ring, which clearly wrote that he borrowed money from He Wu, and the interest was 15% per year.

"After all, one million spirit stones is not a small amount. I specially used the old animal skin purchased from the Demon Domain to record it."

Fang Jin painfully supported his forehead: "Don't any of you speak, let me sort out the order."

"He Wu is the lender, and the annual interest rate is 20%."

"In order to make money, Duan Qinghe told Zhao Tianyi that he would give the money to him, and he could let Zhao Tianyi earn 20%, but in fact, he could only earn 10%."

"Zhao Tianyi told Chen Yachong that he could let Chen Yachong earn 30%, but in fact, he could only earn 20%."

"In order to make money, Chen Yachong borrowed money from He Wu, and the interest was 20%."

Finally, Fang Jin couldn't help it anymore and slammed the table angrily: "Can any of you say a single word of truth!"

Lu Yang thought about it. It seemed that only He Wu and Chen Yachong were telling the truth, but Brother Fang was in a fit of anger, so it was unnecessary to say it.

Meng Jingzhou also summarized: "So Chen Yachong only needs to pay He Wu 5% interest, which is 50,000 spirit stones?"

Fang Jin took out 50,000 spirit stones and handed them to Chen Yachong, just as the money for buying the map. Let's just finish this matter.

In these years, the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect had done several big things, such as the Qingzhou Ceremony, Hanshui City, etc., and Fang Jin had earned a lot of spirit stones. 50,000 spirit stones were just a drop in the bucket for him.

The talents were cleared, and Duan Qinghe's animal skin IOU was useless, so he simply gave it to Fang Jin, who was the final investor.

After the matter was done, Fang Jin, Lu Yang, and Meng Jingzhou returned to the Mountain-Moving and Sea-Filling Sect. Fang Jin was somewhat dumbfounded. What kind of matter was this?

"Brother Fang, sometimes luck can also solve problems." Lu Yang comforted.

Fang Jin thought it was right, and this trip was not without gain. He took out the jade silk map, just as recycling an old map. It's just that he didn't know when he would be able to find the remaining old maps.

Suddenly, the jade silk map, the box, and the animal skin vibrated, as if triggering a resonance.

The box opened, and inside was a jade silk map.

The animal skin tore open, and a jade silk map flew out.

The three jade silk maps overlapped, revealing the true appearance of the real map.

Fang Jin: "..."

What's the situation? Didn't they say that Chen Yachong spent hundreds of years without collecting them?

When did he get so lucky? ===== CHAPTER 856 =====
