Chapter 947 Proposes a Deal
Upon receiving this reply, Wan Qiyou paused in stroking his magnificent beard, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes:
"You all have accumulated merit? Since when has accumulating merit become so easy?"

Yunxi smiled slightly and explained:

"All eight of us ascended from the Weiling Realm, but when we ascended, we pulled the entire realm along with us. It seems that the Weiling Realm has now returned to its original place."

We gained merit from this, which enabled us to break through one after another after transforming our immortal energy. Because the tribulation was sudden, the Immortal Transformation Pool was damaged, which gave the Immortal Officials an excuse to send us here.

"The Immortal Official Wanqi behind you should be able to testify to this. He even reminded me at the time, but because I had undergone two tribulations and completely destroyed the Immortal Transformation Pool, and was also short of money, I had no choice but to come here to dig for immortal stones to repay my debt. I am truly ashamed."

Wan Qiyou's expression softened considerably after hearing Yun Xi's explanation. He had already received news of the return of the missing piece of the Immortal Realm, but he hadn't expected to actually meet a cultivator who had guided the entire Wei Ling Realm to ascension. So he smiled and said:

"Not bad, as expected of a cultivator who can guide an entire realm to ascension. You have both courage and boldness. Jin Lai has really bitten off more than you can chew this time. Would you be willing to stay at the Wanqi family's place temporarily until the matter of the Jin family illegally mining immortal mines on our territory is resolved before you leave?"

Yunxi did not agree rashly, but carefully considered her words before speaking:
“Senior Wanqi, we are willing to recount our experiences to prove that this mine was indeed guarded by Immortal Jinlai. However, we are newcomers and do not understand the situation in the Central Immortal Realm. What if the Jin family retaliates against us?”

Haoran also cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and replied:

"Immortal Master Wanqi, it's not that we're afraid of trouble, and I'm willing to tell the truth. It's just that this matter is clearly far-reaching; otherwise, why would that Celestial Official blatantly sell us ascended cultivators here? If the two sides fight, regardless of who wins or loses, we'll become the scapegoats."

The rest is self-evident; no one is a fool.

Wan Qiyou glanced at the eight people and calmly said:
"If you don't help, Jinlai, who has met you before, probably won't let you off the hook."

Yunxi frowned, turned to Haoran and the others and shook her head, then turned back:
"Senior Wanqi, let's not beat around the bush, let's make a deal."

Wanqiyou stroked his beautiful beard and said:

"How does the transaction work?"

“I am willing to stand up and prove that the Jin family stole the immortal stone mine from the Wanqi family’s territory, and to confront Jin Lai face to face as the only survivor. However, the Wanqi family must guarantee that all the Jin family members who have seen my companions will be killed.”

Wan Qiyou found it very interesting and said:
“Killing the Jin family’s subordinates is easy. As long as there is evidence, they won’t be able to utter a word. However, Jin Lai is a Great Luo Golden Immortal, so it may not be that easy.”

Yunxi smiled and said:

"As long as the Jin family wants to develop in the Central Region, they certainly won't want to make it public that they are illegally mining other races' immortal mines. They will definitely have to put forward a scapegoat, and Jin Lai is the best sacrifice."

After all, he was caught red-handed by the Wanqi family, and his influence was enough to quell some of their anger. How the Jin family would compensate them would depend on the Wanqi family's strength.

"It would be best to squeeze the Jin family line dry, causing internal strife within the Jin family, so they definitely wouldn't dare to target the Wanqi family again."

Wan Qiyou raised an eyebrow and smiled:

"You little girl, you're really ruthless. You want to use someone else to do your dirty work, but you're willing to stand up and take the risks all by yourself. You're quite loyal."

Haoran and the others were unwilling, not wanting Yunxi to bear all the danger alone, but Yunxi said seriously:

"Everyone, please don't argue with me. Fortunately, we won't be staying at the mine for long. You can go to Wan Tu Immortal City first, which won't arouse suspicion from others. We can make plans after this matter has calmed down."

"I am the strongest among the eight. It's better for me to step forward alone than for all eight of us to be mired in this mess. At worst, I can change my appearance and walk around outside, which will make it easier to escape. Most importantly, before this matter is resolved, Immortal Master Wanqi will definitely not let me die. As for what happens after this is over, that will depend on my own abilities." Yunxi knew her own situation well. The entire immortal stone mine had been completely drained by the immortal spirit grass. She had taken things from the Wanqi family, so naturally she had to pay a price.

Moreover, there is now a ready-made scapegoat. Although the Jin family is not innocent, and no one knows how many immortal stones they have dug up before, she must make this matter a fact. Who told the Jin family to bully their ascended cultivators? She wants to use the power of the Wanqi family to bite off a piece of their flesh.

Yunxi's words were meant for Haoran and the other six, as well as for Wanqiyou, indicating her willingness to cooperate with the Wanqi family to handle the matter of illegally mining immortal ore perfectly.

Wan Qiyou laughed heartily and said:

"Alright, the Wanqi family will take care of this deal."

It was Wan Qiwei's telepathic message that led him to make this decision:
"Elder You, this ascended cultivator named Ranxi took a cultivation technique from the Cultivation Technique Pavilion."

With just one simple sentence, Wan Qiyou made the final decision and accepted Yunxi's proposal.

The Wanqi family has already found all the miners' identity jade tokens in the storage rings on Zhu Zhen and Mu Yangchen's bodies.

Wanqiwei returned the identity jade tokens of Haoran and the other six to them, then took out a celestial ship, preparing to send them back to Wantu Immortal City.

Haoran and the others pulled Yunxi aside to give her their final instructions.

Haoran: "Ranxi, don't force anything. If it's impossible, protect yourself first. I will stay in Wantu Immortal City for three years. If you need anything, you can send a message to Wantu Immortal City."

Hao Yan: "Ranxi, I think that the immortal from the Wanqi family agreed to your proposal because he is impressed by your strength and wants you to join the Wanqi family. You should be careful."

Haohui: "No matter where you are, strength is the only thing that matters. You have already obtained the right cultivation technique, so you should seize the time to practice it and not let yourself become too passive."

Mingjia: "Ranxi, you've always thought three steps ahead before taking any action, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten to where you are today. The situation in the Immortal Realm is unclear, so you must be careful."

Minghong: "We will keep what happened today to ourselves and not cause you any trouble. We will leave Wantu Immortal City in three years to prevent the Wanqi family from using us as a weakness. You should make plans in advance."

Shi Jun: "Ranxi, after things calm down, you don't need to worry about me. Do whatever you want."

Tianyun: "Be careful of the Wanqi family's schemes involving handsome men, especially that Wanqi Wei."

Yunxi solemnly accepted the advice from the others and trusted their character. Only Tianyun's words made her raise an eyebrow. She stared at Tianyun with her almond-shaped eyes, trying to make sure he wasn't joking.

Tianyun smiled slightly:
"Ranxi, you said that the disciples of Tianyun Sect have very sharp eyes."

Yunxi nodded knowingly:

"Okay, I've got it. Take care!"

The seven of them bowed to Ranxi in unison. Although they felt somewhat aggrieved, they all knew that with their current strength, staying would only be a burden to Ranxi. Rather than that, they should accumulate strength first, so that one day they could help Ranxi.

Yunxi watched Wanqiwei leave in his flying boat before boarding the Wanqi family's warship.
