My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 452 - 424 He Zhenghao Joins the Game

Chapter 452: Chapter 424 He Zhenghao Joins the Game

“Regret? A joke! I, Li Fan, always mean what I say,” Li Fan declared arrogantly.

“Then it’s settled, if I lose, I will willingly give up cultivating ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’. If you lose…”

Li Fan looked coldly at He Zhenghao: “I won’t make it hard for you, besides changing your cultivation technique, you will just need to hand over half of your possessions to me!”

He Zhenghao’s face drastically changed: “How could this be…”

“Senior! That’s not how you make a bet!”

“Hmmm?” A glimmer of killing intent appeared in Li Fan’s eyes, scaring He Zhenghao into silence.

“Does this current Alliance of Thousands of Immortals have something like contract scrolls?” Li Fan casually asked, “You couldn’t possibly think that just verbal agreement is enough! Don’t you agree?”

He Zhenghao didn’t dare disagree, and bought a Business Pact Scroll from the Small Tianxuan Mirror.

Li Fan accepted the contract, pretending it was his first time seeing one, and studied it carefully, exhibiting a thoughtful expression.

He then wrote down the agreed terms on it and handed the scroll back to He Zhenghao.

He Zhenghao couldn’t help but hesitate while looking at the extremely demanding terms on the contract.

“In seven to eight days, earning funds from 150,000 to 250,000. This is almost an impossible task. It seems my chances of winning are quite significant.”

“Since I am on the chopping block, let’s go for the gamble!”

He Zhenghao’s facial expressions rapidly fluctuated, finally forcing himself to sign his name on the Business Pact Scroll.

Two beams of golden light entered Li Fan and He Zhenghao’s bodies.

The contract was formed.

Li Fan said, “Alright, lad, hand over the 150,000 quickly!”

He Zhenghao looked confused, “What’s this about 150,000?”

Li Fan glared at He Zhenghao and said expectedly, “Obviously, I mean your 150,000 contribution points! I’ve just awoken, I’m not a member of your Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.”

“Where am I to get so many contribution points to fulfill this wager!”

“Naturally, we will have to borrow your contribution points for this.”

He Zhenghao was first stunned, then completely panicked.

He knew, if he lost this wager, at most he would only lose half.

But if this investment failed, even losing it all was not impossible!

This was a lesson that he, He Zhenghao, had learned with sweat and blood over the years.

Even under Li Fan’s actualized killing intent, he firmly shook his head in refusal.

After all, the parties in a signed Business Pact could not harm each other until the contract was fulfilled.

He Zhenghao stubbornly held onto this fact and refused to part with his principal sum, no matter what was said.

Initially, he thought Li Fan would get angry, but instead, he put on a smiling face.

“Lad, don’t worry. During the wager, I will be with you here and won’t leave.”

“And the contribution points, I won’t handle them myself. I will only give operating suggestions.”

“In the end, you will still be overseeing everything. If you feel that it is not appropriate, I won’t force it.”

Li Fan’s words seemed to have a bewitching power.

That caused He Zhenghao to unwittingly relax his guard.

“Looking at it this way, the final decision power lies with me, then there isn’t any risks indeed.”

Just like that, not too long after, He Zhenhao vacantly converted all his distributed investments into cash.

Due to the rush, there was a small loss.

In reality, he managed to gather a total of 148,500 contribution points.

By the time he came to his senses, it was already too late for regrets.

“Alright, House Zhenghao, watch my moves.”

The currently in agony He Zhenghao saw an inexplicable energy fluctuation burst out from Li Fan’s body, his clothes fluttering without wind.

And Li Fan was sitting there with slightly closed eyes, his fingers continuously forming seals, as if he was sensing something.

He Zhenghao could only stand by quietly and not dare to interrupt.

Li Fan calculated for three whole days.

His complexion gradually became pale, but the aura on his body was getting stronger with the passage of time.

He Zhenghao didn’t understand what was happening but understood that Li Fan must be at a crucial point.

Instantly, he didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly, his gaze fixed on Li Fan.

“Seal!”

Li Fan suddenly shouted and pointed to the sky.

He Zhenghao saw a purple streak breaking through the grand array and soaring into the sky.

“What kind of Divine Technique is this…”

He was secretly amazed.

After a moment, Li Fan suddenly opened his eyes, a faint smile on his face.

“Got it!”

At this, He Zhenghao was surprised: “What do you mean got it?”

Li Fan responded with a question: “Does this present Alliance of Thousands of Immortals have the [Ancient Ebony Luminous Stone]?”

“Ancient Ebony Luminous Stone?” He Zhenghao frowned, beginning to search for it in the Small Tianxuan Mirror. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

After a while, he responded: “There is such a thing. A rare Refining Tool material, though it’s precious, its uses are limited.”

“Senior, why are you asking about this?” He Zhenghao was a bit baffled.

“Spend all fifteen thousand contribution points and buy it!” Li Fan decisively said.

At this, He Zhenghao was surprised: “Why?”

An impatient Li Fan said: “The secrets of the universe can’t be revealed, you just need to buy it! Our fortune will depend on this move!”

Finally, He Zhenghao understood, his face full of disbelief: “Is this your investment strategy, senior?”

Li Fan looked at him arrogantly and sneered, “Kid, when I was cultivating ‘The Mountain-Seating Secret’, you didn’t even know where you were. And now you dare to question me?”

He Zhenghao opened his mouth, but due to Li Fan’s domineering imposition, he didn’t dare to argue.

As a qualified investor, He Zhenghao didn’t rush to buy as Li Fan suggested; instead, he silently and carefully studied the information about the [Ancient Ebony Luminous Stone].

“The stone’s biggest, and only use, is to craft the Wugu Traveling Boat that can freely traverse through the leylines.”

“Both its existence and circulation are relatively rare, so its price fluctuation is quite small.”

“Although not necessarily profitable, there’s little to no chance of loss.”

“Let’s just listen to him for now. I have four days before the bet ends, I can’t believe that this thing could actually cause a sensation in such a short period of time.”

Seeing Li Fan impatiently urging him on one side, He Zhenghao thought for a while and made a silent decision.

“Alright, senior, since you insist, I will comply.”

The price of the Ancient Ebony Luminous Stone was 280 contribution points per half kilogram.

As He Zhenhao bought the stones, he told Li Fan: “Senior, you have been sleeping for a long time, the world today is different from that of the ancient times.”

“In our Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, with celestial treasures like the Tianxuan Mirror controlling the market, prices are often quite stable.”

“There may be minor fluctuations, but it would be difficult to make a fortune.”

He Zhenghao shook his head slightly.

Li Fan coldly snorted, “Stop nagging, just wait and watch!”

“A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, how would you know the divine technique of my Heavenly Machine Sect!”

He Zhenghao felt unconvinced in his heart, yet he kept his mouth shut.

He held his breath, waiting to see Li Fan make a fool of himself.

Until two days later.

To his stunned surprise, he saw the prices of the [Ancient Ebony Luminous Stone] soar.
