No taboos

Chapter 187 The scale in people’s hearts
After seven levels of life cultivation, Xu Yuan condensed a new fate:
The ghost doctor steals lives.

This is a destiny with two-way effects.

To the enemy - steal some of his "lifespan" without him knowing it.

For oneself - add part of the stolen lifespan to oneself.

In addition, it also has a range effect. All enemies within the combat range will be weakened by this fate.

The more people whose level is lower than Xu Yuan's, the greater the degree of weakening.

If your level is higher than Xu Yuan’s, the degree of weakening will be lower.

But even if the opponent is of first-class level, this fate can still work.

It's just that the degree of weakening is minimal.

And Xu Yuan’s comrades-in-arms can all enjoy the blessing of “increased longevity”.

The name of this fate sounds a bit eerie, but its effect is really powerful!

Xu Yuan remembered that his father once told him a similar fate, called "The Heavenly Doctor's Fate".

The function is relatively simple, and it can only bless and heal oneself.

Although it sounds nice, its effect is actually not as good as this "Ghost Doctor Stealing Life".

Xu Yuan felt that the reason why it looked eerie and strange...was probably because it was affected by the remaining embers of the black donkey's fate?
The result is good after all.

Another question is: why was he promoted suddenly?
Two days ago, Xu Yuan had a vague feeling that he was about to be promoted, but he lacked some key "opportunities".

Xu Yuan thought about it, opened "Wangming" and took a look at Zhang Laoya.

A brilliant orange destiny, even with a hint of gold.

Fate is:
Share wealth.

Win-win cooperation, huge profits!
The cooperation with this old business lawyer gave Xu Yuan the most critical boost.

Xu Yuan laughed secretly, which meant that Zhang Lao Ya's "dissatisfaction" was just an act.

These are all the old guy's negotiation tactics.

When he heard the words "Eight Directions Injury", he had actually decided in his heart to do this "deal" with himself.

But he never expected that he would borrow his fate in return.

Xu Yuan continued, "Seventh Stream, Life Cultivation is also Seventh Stream."

Zhang Laoya was obviously stunned for a moment. He thought Xu Yuan's life cultivation was only at the ninth-rate level.

Xu Yuan applied for a seventh-rate grade, which far exceeded his expectations.

At this moment, Xu Yuan completely reversed the situation and took full control of the initiative in this negotiation.

"Senior, do you think that the offer of 200,000 taels of silver just now was laughable?" Xu Yuan asked with a faint smile on his face.

Mr. Zhang refused to admit it.

Although he is a sixth-rate practitioner, he has already reached the threshold of the fifth rate.

But one cannot be arrogant in front of a seventh-rate life cultivator.

"Are you really a low-class person?" Zhang Laoya was suspicious. "If you are really a low-class person, why do you stay in the Department of Excrement?"

Xu Yuan smiled but did not answer.

Zhang Lao Ya then asked, "Besides the Eight Directions Injury, what other destiny do you have?"

"There's another one called 'Ghost Doctor Stealing Life', and the last one... well, I won't tell you. Even if I told you, you wouldn't have heard of it."

If Xu Yuan told everything, Zhang Laoya would be even less convinced.

A destiny cultivator will definitely hide one or two destiny patterns and keep them secret from others. Those are the capital for the destiny cultivator to save his life.

When Zhang Laoya heard the phrase "ghost doctor stealing lives", his eyes moved uncontrollably.

"It was actually the Ghost Doctor who stole my life, not... the Heavenly Doctor who gave me my life." He tilted his head and gave Xu Yuan a deep look, then said, "I will guide you and teach you everything about business cultivation."

Xu Yuan nodded: "In exchange, what do I need to pay?"

"I offended a group of people in the past, so I hid in Jiaozhi. But they may come to seek revenge on me soon, so I need to borrow the power of your destiny.

So I will be staying in the South City Patrol House for three months.

If nothing happens within three months, we'll be even."

Xu Yuan: "What if they come within three months? Do I need your help to fight them?" Zhang Lao Ya shook his head: "What I give you is not worth a seventh-rate life cultivator to fight. If they come, you can watch the battle from the sidelines, and I can borrow your life."

Xu Yuan thought about it and realized that there were certainly risks involved.

I'm watching the fight from the side. Will Zhang Laoya's enemies think we are in the same group?

Or maybe they just want to "eradicate the problem completely."

It will implicate yourself.

The enemy who could scare Zhang Laoya into hiding must be extremely powerful.

Zhang Lao Ya obviously saw Xu Yuan's concerns, and he sighed helplessly and said truthfully: "Don't worry, although they are enemies, they are not mortal enemies. They... just want to torture me.

Even if I risk my life, they will not get any good results.

But I...felt guilty, so I kept avoiding them."

Xu Yuan looked at him strangely, and Zhang Lao Ya's face turned red. "If you don't believe me, go ask Ma Tianshou. He knows everything about this."

Xu Yuan then nodded: "Deal."

After the two men had reached an agreement, Zhang Lao Ya said, "Stretch out your hand."

Xu Yuan felt a little strange, but still stretched out his right hand.

Zhang Laoya grabbed Xu Yuan's hand and squeezed it hard.

Xu Yuan felt a pain in the palm of his hand, as if it was pierced by something.

Then a warm current flowed through the "wound" and flowed into his body.

Images quickly emerged in Xu Yuan’s mind.

They are the business law practitioners that I have encountered before.

Money for buying life, the saint lady’s “stall”, etc.

In the past, these "commercial laws" were just commercial laws.

Now I suddenly have a deeper understanding.

For example, we already have some clues on how to create "money to buy life".

Xu Yuan looked at Zhang Laoya in astonishment.

The latter said: "Okay, now that you have entered the market and have entered the mainstream, I will first teach you some basic business laws..."

"So simple?"

Zhang Laoya snorted, "It's really not easy for those third-rate people. They want to fully analyze their own characteristics, just like dispersing their power.

Not only is it time-consuming, but it is also very painful.

But for those above the sixth level, guiding someone is actually quite easy."

Zhang Lao Ya paused for a moment and added, "But you can't take on too many. Generally, if you take on more than three, you'll have to downgrade yourself."

Zhang Laoya began to teach the basics of commercial law, and his first sentence was: "The key to commercial law lies in the scale in people's hearts.

After learning the commercial law, everything in this world will have a price.

There is nothing that cannot be bought or sold.

But how do you calculate the price? Everyone has their own scale for everything.

When you want to buy something from someone, the price you offer is not the price on the scale in his mind.

It is the price measured by the scale in the hearts of most people in this world.

Simply put, it's a 'fair' price.

We want to keep the price as low as possible within a reasonable range."

He smiled triumphantly: "As long as someone can say it's 'fair', then this deal will be done!"

Xu Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

Zhang Laoya reminded him again: "But don't think that just by paying a high price and buying something, you have completed a successful business deal.

Profiting less means losing money!
If you do this too many times, your business skills will stagnate. Remember this!"
