I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.
Chapter 87 Pay back the money first, then risk your life
Shen Sixi was quite satisfied that these people were sensible.
Shen Sixi: "I can give you the antidote, but I have one condition."
The assassins were initially relieved, but then their hearts pounded with anxiety.
They had chased her not long ago, and now they were standing in Old Huang's herb garden, also to kill her.
She's not some kind, generous, innocent girl; how could she possibly give away such a precious antidote so easily?
There must be some very malicious conditions involved.
After much deliberation, everyone decided that their lives were of the most important thing, and reluctantly said to Shen Sixi, "Princess, please give your orders."
Shen Sixi: "One dose of the antidote costs ten million."
"Ten million?" They were all stunned.
Shen Sixi raised an eyebrow: "Ten million isn't enough? Then how about twenty million?"
"Twenty million, that's twenty million!" the assassins quickly said.
They were all prepared for Shen Sixi to make exorbitant demands, thinking she was going to give them some difficult task or find a way to torture them.
Didn't expect Shen Sixi to just want money?
These people lack everything except money.
After all, people in their line of work are risking their lives for money.
Even someone who spends money like water, if they can't come up with 20 million now, they can find someone to help them out and take on a few jobs to pay it off.
"How can I pay? I have money in my account right now!"
"Me too, me too. Should I get the medicine first or pay first?"
"Is that even a question? Of course, you pay first! I'll pay first!"
"Cola, I have less than 20 million here, can you lend me some?"
How much do you have left?
"507".
"Get lost."
"..."
The assassin group fell into chaos again, with those who had money scrambling to pay up and those who didn't scrambling to borrow money.
Shen Sixi was very satisfied; she had never intended to kill someone to vent her anger.
While they're alive, they can still make money for her; if they die, won't the Temple of Angels have nothing left?
What would she need an empty shell for?
As long as they live, she can continue to receive commissions.
Shen Sixi looked at Xiaohua: "Go and collect the money."
Xiao Hua responded and walked towards the assassin group.
He had just left when Shen Sixi called him back.
Shen Sixi: "I'll give an extra ten million to each of the people who chased me and Zang Shiqi."
Everyone:………………
Xiaohua: "Okay."
Xiao Hua walked towards Zang Shiqi.
Zang Shiqi didn't even dare to look at Xiaohua, and stammered, "Xiaohua, I'm sorry, I..."
Xiao Hua said expressionlessly, "Thirty million."
Zang Shiqi: ...
……
While the exchange of money and medicine was in full swing over there, Josie woke up over here.
Josie remembers what happened before.
He absolutely hated Shen Sixi; this woman must have done something to him!
Although he received the antidote he had been longing for, he felt no gratitude whatsoever.
He has lost everything now, even his position as the Lord of the Temple of Angels. What's the use of living a long life?
He wants to kill Shen Sixi and reclaim his rightful place!
He imprisoned and indirectly murdered the woman he loved most in order to gain this position. He had already paid too high a price and could not easily give it up.
That woman is incredibly stupid. She actually sent Xiao Hua away. Without Xiao Hua protecting her, she probably wouldn't even know how she died!
Qiao Xi didn't think Shen Sixi was that great; he just thought those people were stupid.
He suddenly stood up, gripped the dagger he carried with him, and stabbed at Shen Sixi.
Old Huang saw it and panicked: "Quick, hide!"
Shen Sixi didn't dodge. Instead, she calmly braced herself against Qiao Xi's arm, then kicked out, sending Qiao Xi crashing to her knees.
With a loud thud, Old Huang felt pain just hearing it.
Old Huang: "Hiss—"
Shen Sixi snatched Qiao Xi's dagger and slowly twirled the hilt while playing with it.
"Awake?"
Shen Sixi looked down at Qiao Xi.
"I gave you the antidote, and instead of thanking me, you tried to kill me. How could you be so wicked?"
"Despicable!" Qiao Xi glared at Shen Sixi.
Shen Sixi: "How can you be so ungrateful? You even called Xiaohua an ingrate, but I don't think anyone in the whole world is more ingrate than you!"
"Even the term 'ungrateful wretch' came from the former High Priest, didn't it? Did your adoptive parents know what you did to their daughter?!"
"You should thank me for giving you a chance to repent."
Josie's face turned extremely ugly: "Ha, thank you? You've been plotting against me from beginning to end! It's all your scheme!"
Josie didn't believe he would fall ill for no reason.
Josie: "Shameless! Despicable!"
Shen Sixi kicked him hard, stepping on his chest, and said coldly, "That's right, I am the one who plotted against you."
Qiao Xi had just regained consciousness and was relatively weak at the moment, struggling futilely at Shen Sixi's feet.
Old Huang was overjoyed and added a kick, "You've finally met your match!"
Josie groaned.
Not far away, the assassins had already noticed the situation and couldn't help but peek out.
When they saw Josie being beaten, they turned their eyes away indifferently.
They preferred the current temple master who gave them the antidote to the one who poisoned them.
The new temple masters demand money, while the old ones demand lives; they can clearly distinguish which is more important.
Although they risk their lives to earn money, they also cherish their lives.
If you lose your life, you have nowhere to spend all your money.
The assassins took their medication and paid their fines as usual, pretending they hadn't seen anything.
Even the elder who had been standing on Josie's side sighed and looked away.
The elders were somewhat loyal to Josie, but not to the point of risking their lives.
Josie's heart sank.
He didn't regret poisoning these people. They had no loyalty to him whatsoever. If he hadn't used poison to control them, they would have rebelled long ago!
Josie, driven to a frenzy of impotence at Shen Sixi's feet, yelled, "Let me go! If you're so capable, fight me fair and square! What kind of skill is this, resorting to such despicable tactics?!"
"Let's fight? Sure!"
Shen Sixi easily lifted Qiao Xi up by the collar with one hand, then quickly threw her three meters away.
Josie crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Shen Sixi slowly walked up to him and said, "Get up and have a fair fight."
Josie couldn't even stand up now, and said with difficulty, "You...you wait, I won't let you get away with this!"
"Ha, you won't let me go? You think you still have a chance?"
Shen Sixi leaned closer to him and said, word by word, "You don't actually think I'm being kind and giving you the antidote, do you?"
Josie paused, then slowly opened her eyes wide.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean--"
Shen Sixi said slowly, "What I'm giving you is both the antidote and a new poison."
Shen Sixi: "My poison is more potent than the poison you were poisoned with before."
"Pfft." Josie spat out another mouthful of blood.
She's a devil! She's a devil!
He stared intently at Shen Sixi, lay on the ground for a while to recover, and then struggled to his feet, clutching his chest.
Old Huang frowned: "What else do you want to do!"
"Thump." Qiao Xi gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of Shen Sixi once again.
"Lord of the Palace," he said, his head bowed, his voice hoarse, "I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."
He surrendered.
Shen Sixi nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, you can pay me back my 10 billion first."
"Including the cost of your medicine today, the total is 10.04 billion!"
