Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 382 The Vicious Female Supporting Character in the Cultivation World (17)
Logically speaking, Long Yi, being from a large family like the Long family, should have no shortage of spirit stones. However, the Long family believes in ascetic cultivation, and their rules are strict, forbidding their disciples from being extravagant or wasteful outside the family. The spirit stones given to Long Yi on a daily basis are only enough to maintain his basic cultivation needs.
I only get one hundred high-grade spirit stones a month, plus the disciple resources provided by the sect.
That adds up to two hundred high-grade spirit stones. Now, if Long Yi were to suddenly produce twenty top-grade spirit stones, he really couldn't afford it.
"Shen Chumo, you're deliberately making things difficult for me! You know perfectly well that I can't come up with twenty top-grade spirit stones in a short time!"
Long Yi stared at Shen Chumo with bloodshot eyes, as if he wanted to devour her alive.
Shen Chumo crossed her arms, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Long Yi, I've already been very lenient with you. The value of those spiritual treasures is far more than twenty top-grade spirit stones. I only let you convert them into spirit stones for me because we were once fellow disciples."
If you can't produce it, you can ask your junior sister next to you. Most of those spiritual treasures ended up in her pocket, so you can just ask her to lend you some spirit stones.
Shen Chumo glanced at Shen Li, who was frozen in place, and curled her lips into a smile.
"Shen Li, don't tell me you don't have any spirit stones. I know you went to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion a few days ago and bought a high-grade spirit treasure. It cost you a full thirty top-grade spirit stones. Tsk tsk, Shen Li, how did someone who only has a hundred high-grade spirit stones a month afford it?"
Damn it, how did she know? Shen Li instinctively covered her storage ring.
"Senior sister, you...you shouldn't talk nonsense!" Shen Li retorted, trying to appear calm. "I don't have that many spirit stones. I just bought an ordinary spirit treasure, which isn't worth much at all."
"Then do you dare let me check your storage ring?"
Shen Li unconsciously shrank back, her hands tightly protecting the storage ring.
"Shen Chumo, what right do you have to inspect my storage ring? This is my privacy, and you have no right to interfere!"
"It seems you don't have much sincerity towards your third senior brother either. Back then, Long Yi treated you so well, sending you all sorts of good things. But now you're not even willing to help your senior brother pay back twenty top-grade spirit stones."
Long Yi frowned as he watched the standoff between the two.
He looked at Shen Li, his eyes filled with a hint of questioning, "Junior Sister, do you really have that many spirit stones? If you really do, why don't you help me?"
Shen Li felt very annoyed when she saw the disappointment in Long Yi's eyes. Did Long Yi really expect her to help him return the spirit stones?
He always acts so generous, but he always gets things from Shen Chumo. This kind of man is really shameless.
But she couldn't show it, after all, she still needed Long Yi to improve her favorability, and Long Yi was the one with the highest favorability among her senior brothers.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Li gritted her teeth and handed Long Yi a mid-grade spiritual treasure that she didn't particularly like.
"Third Senior Brother, I really don't have that many spirit stones, but this mid-grade spirit treasure should be able to be exchanged for some spirit stones for emergency use. You can take it and use it first."
Shen Li forced a smile, but a hint of heartache flashed in her eyes.
Long Yi looked at the mid-grade spiritual treasure that Shen Li handed him, feeling somewhat moved. He reached out and took it, his tone softening.
"Junior sister, thank you. Once I get through this, I will never forget your kindness."
Shen Li forced a smile and waved her hand, "Third Senior Brother, there's no need to thank me. We fellow disciples should help each other."
But in his heart, he was secretly plotting that he had to find a way to get some benefits out of Long Yi by taking out this magical treasure.
"Although this mid-grade spiritual treasure can be exchanged for some spirit stones, it's still far from enough to buy twenty top-grade spirit stones." Long Yi frowned, looking at the spiritual treasure in his hand, his anxiety not lessened much.
Shen Li's eyes darted around, and she said, "Third Senior Brother, why don't you go and talk to Senior Sister again and ask her to give us some more time, or ask her to ask for fewer spirit stones?"
Long Yi's face instantly darkened, and he snorted coldly, "Hmph, that woman Shen Chumo is determined to embarrass me now, how could she give in so easily? As a descendant of the dignified Long family, how could I bow down to her time and time again!"
Shen Li was taken aback by Long Yi's attitude and felt somewhat displeased, but she still smiled and said, "Third Senior Brother is right, but given the current situation, we also need to think of a solution, right?"
If all else fails, ask your fellow disciples or family members if they can lend you some spirit stones.
Long Yi's face was displeased. He was a person who cared about his reputation. If he had to borrow spirit stones from others, how could he continue to live in the sect?
But if he asks his parents for it, they'll know he's taken so much of Shen Chumo's stuff, and they'll come over tomorrow and break his legs.
"Have you two finished whispering?"
Shen Chumo said impatiently, "I don't have that much time to waste with you guys."
"No hurries?"
Long Yi gritted his teeth and searched through his storage ring, giving Shen Chumo all the spirit stones, spirit treasures, and some high-grade spirit plants.
"Take these for now."
Shen Chumo glanced at it disdainfully, "These things are worth at most five top-grade spirit stones."
Shen Li frowned and said, "Senior sister, third senior brother has already given you everything he could, so please don't make things too difficult for us."
Shen Chumo chuckled, "Shen Li, you should still have at least twenty top-grade spirit stones in your storage ring, right? Are you sure you don't want to take them out to help your good senior brother pay off his debts?"
Shen Li's eyes trembled. How did Shen Chumo know? Could it be... that Shen Chumo also has a system?
No, impossible. She should be the protagonist of this world. There can't be another person with a system.
Shen Chumo instinctively wanted to deny it, but she couldn't calm her heart down.
"System, quickly check if there's anything unusual about Shen Chumo."
"Detection in progress... No abnormal energy fluctuations or system binding signs were detected on Shen Chumo that can be identified by this system."
Hearing the system's reply, Shen Li breathed a slight sigh of relief, but her doubts were not completely dispelled. She looked at Shen Chumo, her eyes still filled with wariness and suspicion.
"Senior sister, please stop joking. After all..." Shen Li's mood sombered.
"I am just an adopted daughter of my master and mistress, how could I have so many spirit stones?"
Looking at Shen Li's pitiful appearance, Long Yi felt a pang of heartache.
"That's enough, Shen Chumo. I'm the one who owes you spirit stones, not A-Li. You don't need to target her like this."
"Then why don't you pay it back?"
Long Yi's face turned bright red. "Shen Chumo, I know I'm in the wrong. I'll find a way to raise the spirit stones to pay you back as soon as possible. Please give me some more time."
Shen Chumo chuckled and shook her head. "Long Yi, do you know why I knew Shen Li had spirit stones? It's because my parents gave her thirty top-grade spirit stones as a gift when she reached Foundation Establishment two months ago."
