Chapter 927 Windshooter Era Emperor
And just like that, an ancestor of Blade Immortal died. And his death was by the hands of his own Ten Slaying Blades.
Everyone looked at the blades dancing within Jin Rou's side. They were asking for him to take them. They looked stumped as this was not something that happen in a daily basis.
Jin Rou shook his head, "Unfortunately, I can't take any of you. You should find a suitable master, and oh, make sure that the person is goodwilled so that you will not be used as a killing weapon at all times."
Who knew how many died by these blades? Perhaps a million? Or a billion? They should have grown accustomed to it, but it looked it wasn't the case.
The blades looked disappointed but still left afterwards. No one here was worthy of wielding them. They had to search for that fated one themselves. It was already their luck that they weren't destroyed.
Now that Tenblade Ancestor was dead, Jin a Rou looked at Thunder King and Lostwind and asked, "Are you still going to have a go?"
Lostwind clenched his fist. He wanted to collect the debt from Jin Rou but he knew that he couldn't defeat him. Not even their ancestors could. Just look what happened to Tenblade, for example. He was stronger than any of them here.
Lostwind doubt that their era emperor would come and save them in case things turned awry.
Jin Rou looked at Lostwind and smiled, "It's nice seeing a familiar face here. Are you here for the Coinlost? If that's the case, you can pay a million of imperial stones and you're good to go."
"Are you the one who set up that ridiculous price?" Lostwind said, irritated. The amount was too much for them, and it's not something they could afford even if they fork out everything.
"No, but it's the right price." Jin Rou smirked, "Since I'm being nice today, how about I lend you some money? And if Thunder God wants too, I can lend them too."
"A million era emperor stones is not a joking amount." Thunder King said seriously. Who could take out a million, much less two million in one go? And era emperor stones at that?
"I never said it was a joking amount. I'm just trying to help you two out despite our differences." Jin Rou said. He returned to being lax and resumed, "One million Era Emperors stones for each of your powerhouse. In return, you have to give the 50% of your monthly income to Greenhouse. This contract will be for 10,000 years in order for you to pay the full amount of 1 million Era Emperor Stones."
At first, it sounded ridiculous. Who would want to be in debt and give 50% of their monthly revenues for ten thousand years? It looked absurd. But in truth, Jin Rou was already being merciful by this deal. He could just take 80% of it or even 100% to dry the two powerhouses, but he didn't.
While Lostwind was thinking this through, Thunder King sneered and said, "Keep dreaming. Do you know Thunder God? Who the hell are you to demand such a high price for an entry towards that godforsaken place?"
"If that is a godforsaken place, you shouldn't be here wasting resources." Jin Rou smirked, "The deal is fair and square. Compared to the opportunities you might get inside, this is a trivial thing."
"Fair and square, my foot." Thunder King was enraged. He wanted to attack but he knew he wouldn't be a match against that man, "Then we will not just participate this time. Thunder God is not willing to accept your demands."
"Very well. Since you say so." Jin Rou didn't force the issue and looked at Lostwind, "How about you?"
In all honesty, Lostwind was still undecided. He was weighing the pros and cons of this matter. He didn't want to regret it, after all. But thinking about the deal, it really seemed fair and square. The other party didn't intend to hide chargers and said everything specifically.
"Your Majesty, we will accept it." Before Lostwind could say something, a figure appeared carrying by the wind. He was too handsome and charming at the same time, "50% of our monthly income, it is. For ten thousand years."
The people in the know in the background was stumped to actually see a legendary figure of Elemental Wind.
"Windshooter Era Emperor!" One ancestor shouted. This appearance was unexpected. After all, no one had ever thought that an era emperor would show up this time!
Windshooter was the second emperor of Elemental Wind. He was the child of the progenitor, blessed by the heavens for his talent and looks.
Lostwind and the other ancestors immediately knelt. The appearance of the emperor was too shocking even for them, "We pay respects to Your Majesty Windshooter."
"Rise, everyone." Windshooter nodded and accepted the gesture, "But I'm a bit disappointed to all of you. His Majesty has presented a great gift for you all yet you remain indecisive."
Actually, the emperor didn't want to show himself here. The tribulation was too dangerous and he might trigger it. But his descendants filled with uncompetitive personalities were too much to bear watching. Thus, before Lostwind could say the answer, he risked showing up here.
The members of the Lostwind didn't utter a single word. They accepted the scolding like children. Now, they were aware what kind of position this young man held that even their emperor had to pay his respect.
Jin Rou saw this and laughed weakly. Windshooter even showed himself here, and by this, memories suddenly resurfaced. It wasn't his, but he could feel Han Li's emotion as they were one, anyway.
While it was happening, slow steps could be heard not far away from them. Jin Rou looked at the newcomer and smiled wryly.
These people are showing up one after another. How could he practice his dominance if that's the case?
"I hope, I'm not late, Your Majesty?" A woman filled with thunder aura appeared.
