Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

The demon cultivator surnamed Yuan did not speak immediately. He seemed to be thinking about the authenticity of Zhou Yiqiao's words.

Zhou Yiqiao's heart was slightly tense, but he remained calm on the surface. He knew that he was betting on the judgment of the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan.

Time passed little by little, and just when Zhou Yiqiao began to feel a little uneasy, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan finally spoke.

"What benefits can Yuan get if he agrees to Elder Li's alliance?"

His voice was still hoarse, but to Zhou Yiqiao's ears, it was like the sound of nature.

The fact that the other party can take the initiative to ask for conditions is enough to prove that his heart has moved.

Zhou Yiqiao felt happy and secretly thought there was a way out, so he hurriedly said.

"Elder Li said that as long as Fellow Daoist Yuan agrees to join forces, Fellow Daoist Yuan's salary will not only be restored to the previous level, but the old man will also give Fellow Daoist Yuan ten additional high-grade spiritual stones and a bottle of cultivation elixir used by monks who transform themselves into spirits every month."

Li Wenshi naturally did not agree to the benefits mentioned by Zhou Yiqiao, but this did not prevent Zhou Yiqiao from using them as bargaining chips.

As long as the matter can be negotiated, even if Li Wenshi is unwilling to use these resources, Zhou Yiqiao can find a way to fill this hole.

After all, in the past few years, he had deducted 60% of the demon cultivator's salary, while Li Wenshi only took 50%. Li Wenshi ate meat, and he also made a lot of money.

These are just a drop in the bucket in terms of Zhou Yiqiao's gains in the past few years.

After listening to Zhou Yiqiao's words, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan had a glimmer of light in his eyes.

Ten pieces of high-quality spiritual stones and a bottle of cultivation elixir used by the god-transformation monks are a huge wealth for any god-transformation monk in the Nether Demon Sect, let alone for him, a demon who has been practicing in Zhuzhou since he was a child. For the clan monks.

He was silent for a long time, seeming to weigh the pros and cons.

Zhou Yiqiao was not in a hurry. He knew that he had thrown out a sufficiently attractive bargaining chip, and he only had to wait for the other party's reply.

Finally, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan spoke, his voice revealing an indescribable complex emotion.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Yuan has a question."

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, please speak."

Zhou Yiqiao smiled gently and extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

"Elder Li is willing to give such generous conditions. What does he ask me to do?"

He spoke slowly, with an imperceptible temptation in his voice.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Yuan has been in Yingfeng City for so many years. Although he has never left the Monster Clan station for some reasons, he still has heard about Elder Li's character."

"Elder Li is so generous, so he must have an agenda."

"Yuan Mou needs to put his words here first. If Yuan Mou is asked to do something that goes against my interest in leaving, no matter how tempting the conditions are, Yuan Mou will not agree."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, his heart moved slightly.

He understood that although the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan looked rough, he was actually thoughtful and not the kind of ordinary demon cultivator who could be easily carried away by interests.

Zhou Yiqiao showed an understanding smile on his face and spoke slowly.

"Such a big conflict occurred between Zhou and the demon tribe. Naturally, Elder Li doesn't want something like this to happen again at the critical moment when we are fighting against the barbarians."

He paused, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

"Elder Li's request is actually very simple. He only needs Fellow Daoist Yuan to work with Fellow Daoist Hu to restrain the demon monks under his command during normal times, so that things like today's attack on my Nether Demon Sect monks will not happen again. "

"Zhou knows that although fellow Daoist Yuan is a demon cultivator, he is a demon cultivator who understands righteousness deeply."

Zhou Yiqiao's tone was full of admiration and admiration. These words were carefully prepared by him to make the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan feel that he was not using him, but giving him a chance.

"As long as Fellow Daoist Yuan can agree to this request, Elder Li will naturally fulfill his promise and realize all the benefits promised before."

He once again emphasized the benefits promised by Li Wenshi, trying to use these to impress the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan.

After listening to Zhou Yiqiao's words, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan fell into deep thought.

After a long time, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan finally made a decision.

"Okay, I agree to Elder Li's request."

Zhou Yiqiao was happy, but his face remained calm.

He knew that this was only the first step, and more efforts would be needed to solidify the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan's willingness to cooperate.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan really understands the great righteousness. Mr. Li thanked fellow Daoist Yuan on behalf of Elder Li."

He cupped his hands, his tone full of sincerity and gratitude.

After finishing speaking, Zhou Yiqiao put his hand on his waist and immediately sent all the resources he had promised to the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan is so refreshing. Zhou cannot be stingy. Please accept these resources from Daoist Yuan first. They can be considered as salary restoration this month and additional benefits."

The demon cultivator surnamed Yuan looked at the mountains of resources in front of him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This was not the first time that he had seen such abundant resources, but it was the first time that Zhou Yiqiao had put these resources into his hands so readily.

This can't help but make him have a deeper trust in Zhou Yiqiao.

Zhou Yiqiao looked at the other party with an expression of trust and knew that his goal had been achieved.

He understood that going too far is not enough, so he did not stay to continue to persuade. Instead, he chose a suitable moment to stand up and leave.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, Zhou will not disturb you anymore and please leave first."

He cupped his hands, turned around and walked out.

Seeing this, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan also quickly stood up to see him off.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, walk slowly."

He replied politely and watched Zhou Yiqiao leave.

Watching Zhou Yiqiao's leaving figure, the demon cultivator surnamed Yuan caressed the resources left by Zhou Yiqiao and was lost in thought. He didn't know what he was thinking.

......

On the other side, after Zhou Yiqiao left the Monster Clan's station, he fled directly towards Li Wenshi's house.

Li Wenshi probably didn't expect Zhou Yiqiao to solve the matter so quickly.

When Zhou Yiqiao rushed to the house, the old guy had already entered a state of cultivation. Only the old guy's granddaughter Li Yuyu was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, looking through an ancient book boredly.

"Senior Brother Zhou."

Seeing Zhou Yiqiao's arrival, Li Yuyu immediately put down the ancient book in his hand and stood up to salute.

"Junior Sister Yuyu."

Zhou Yiqiao responded, then took out a bamboo stick and carved all the content he wanted to report into the bamboo stick.

"Brother has completed what Elder Li asked me to do. Since Elder Li is practicing now, please trouble me, Sister Yuyu, to give this bamboo stick to him after he wakes up."

Li Yuyu took the bamboo stick handed over by Zhou Yiqiao and nodded. Her movements were gentle and graceful. It was really hard to imagine that this woman turned out to be a terrifying demon body.

"Senior brother Zhou, don't worry. When grandpa wakes up, Yu Yu will give him the bamboo stick as soon as possible."

"Thank you!"

Zhou Yiqiao smiled and left in a hurry as if he had come.
