Chapter 166: Qiu Bai And Ling Ren
Li Xiandao pulled the Northern Region Lord into the Bank of the Universe.
Because of the Bank of the Universe’s rules, he had to do things according to the contract!
What was written on the contract had to be followed. Once the owner of the contract wanted to come to the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao would be unable to reject him.
This was why when he left Dali Land, Li Xiandao anxiously sent Heaven Heart to clear out the Dali Dynasty’s elder!
To do so, Li Xiandao even bent the rules. Heaven Heart had to tell a story so that people didn’t notice that anything was off. Thus, he avoided breaking the Bank of the Universe’s rules.
If the Dali Dynasty elder entered the Bank of the Universe, that would be a huge loss for Li Xiandao.
However… The Northern Region Lord was different from the Dali Dynasty elder.
Li Xiandao didn’t even think that Northern Region Lord would agree to return Slaying the Heavens.
That was the key!
Li Xiandao thought that he wouldn’t and he could tear apart the contract on the terms that he had broken the contract.
Who knew…
Now that the Northern Region Lord wanted to return it, even if Li Xiandao had Celestial cultivation he couldn’t harm the Northern Region Lord and had to receive him.
….
In the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao left the Northern Region Lord halfway while he returned to the room alone. He was expressionless and really dejected.
Seven looked at Li Xiandao and asked curiously, “Did you lose the battle?”
He would only behave this way if he had lost to the Northern Region Lord!
Li Xiandao shook his head.
Seven was confused and asked, “Then, you won?”
Li Xiandao continued to shake his head.
“Then, what happened?” Seven’s face sunk.
Li Xiandao sighed, “We didn’t even fight!”
“What do you mean?” Seven was a little confused.
“The Northern Region Lord took the initiative to return Slaying the Heavens and end the contract.” Li Xiandao said helplessly.
Seven knew what Li Xiandao was worried about. Bitterness appeared on her beautiful face. “Where are you going to find 100 beauties for him?”
Li Xiandao was worried about that and asked, “If I go against the contract, what kind of punishment will I suffer?”
Seven said solemnly, “Your credibility will decrease and the Bank of the Universe will be on the verge of collapse. If you break it three times, you will end up in the same situation as the last owner. If it happens three times, you will be destroyed. The Bank of the Universe will also be sealed up.”
The Bank of the Universe was really strong and the rules were simple. But Li Xiandao couldn’t afford to break those rules now.
“Which is why I have to give him 100 beauties!” Li Xiandao sighed and frowned.
Even if he went to kidnap people in the city, he wouldn’t be able to capture 100 beauties.
Moreover, if any of them objected, then they wouldn’t be counted either way.
Anyway, Li Xiandao was facing a huge problem.
Seven thought about it and had an idea. She said, “We can’t go against the contract, so we have to give him 100. But what if he doesn’t accept it?”
Li Xiandao looked at Seven silently and saw hope.
“What do I need to tell him?” Li Xiandao frowned.
He couldn’t just go to him and say, “Brother, I don’t have 100 beauties with me. Can you just let it slide?”
“Are you a fool? Qiu Bai.” Seven rolled her eyes at Li Xiandao.
“What about Qiu Bai…” Li Xiandao didn’t care much, but instantly he looked at Seven like he had been electrocuted.
“Now, you know? Qiu Bai is a clone of Qiu Bai and they look the same. She is like the 18-19-year-old Ling Ren. Didn’t you say that looking at her was like looking at a neighbor?” Seven asked softly.
Li Xiandao heaved a sigh of relief. He held her head and kissed it right away. “You really are my lucky star. This is a good idea. I will find Qiu Bai now and tell her to convince the Northern Region Lord.”
Li Xiandao ran after kissing her, leaving Seven stunned.
After a long while, Seven returned to her senses.
“You do have the all-knowing talent. You definitely thought about it, so why are you so emotional?” Seven was confused.
“You even kissed me?” Seven ground her silver teeth.
“Hooligan!!” She scolded furiously. She covered her red cheeks and started to feel really shy.
….
Li Xiandao called Qiu Bai to the Trading Hall.
“Master, did you call me?” Qiu Bai asked.
“Someone you know is coming. Go welcome him.” Li Xiandao wore the mask and was now wearing something else.
“Someone I know?” Qiu Bai was confused.
“Northern Region Lord.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
Qiu Bai exclaimed and looked at Li Xiandao in shock. She felt a little awkward. “Master, that was what Ling Ren did when she was young. I am just a clone, I don’t have much to do with her.”
“I need you to make the Northern Region Lord give up the contract.” Li Xiandao tapped the table and said.
Qiu Bai looked at Li Xiandao in confusion.
“The contract states that I shall give him 100 beauties when the contract ends. I don’t have them, so I can’t give hold my end of the deal. I need him to give up on it.” Li Xiandao explained.
Qiu Bai nodded, “Understood, I shall go now and help solve Master’s worries. This is my honor.”
Li Xiandao nodded his head in satisfaction as he looked at Qiu Bai leave.
The Northern Region Lord entered the Bank of the Universe and he slowly walked on this familiar yet foreign path. He looked around. 10,000 years ago, he was really young. He exchanged 100 girls for Slaying the Heavens.
10,000 years later he had gone through so much. Although time hadn’t left any marks on him, it left many scars on his soul and his demeanor.
“Time has passed too quickly.” Northern Region Lord exclaimed.
As he walked, his body suddenly froze and his mouth was agape.
What did he see?
Moonlight!
His love!
Ling Ren!
The Northern Region Lord took in a deep breath to calm himself down. He looked at Ling Ren who seemed as flawless as she was 10,000 years ago. “Long time no see.”
Qiu Bai looked at how the Northern Region Lord was suppressing his emotions. Her eyes swelled up and she sighed deep down.
The Northern Region Lord was a devoted person. He became a lord and only loved one girl in his life. He lost his lover and didn’t take any more concubines after. His relationship with his wife was really distant, meeting only a few times in a year.
“I am not Ling Ren; I am just a clone of hers. My name is Qiu Bai.” Qiu Bai introduced herself.
The Northern Region Lord was stunned and looked at her in disbelief.
“It really is true, I have all her memories. If you want to know about them, I can tell you.” Qiu Bai said firmly.
Northern Region Lord asked, “What do you need me to do?”
The fact that Qiu Bai was waiting for him here and saying such things obviously meant that she was trying to make him do something.
The Northern Region Lord was not a fool. He was really smart but it was just that he was also really devoted. He was willing to listen to Qiu Bai. Even just looking at her made him really satisfied.
