Chapter 1518: Let’s Collaborate
An elder immediately sneered, "Will his accomplices be sent to Tiandu to rescue him? Ji Ling'er, has your brain degenerated over the past hundred years? Tens of thousands of years ago, the people of their Nine Heavens World were beaten by us and could not turn over. Do they dare to come now?"
"Things are different now." Ji Ling'er said, "We need to minimize the losses now. If he lives, maybe we can exchange him for our fifteen people. The three million kilograms of holy stones may come back."
"Based on your words alone, how can we believe that this kid has a high status? Will the people of the Nine Heavens World risk their lives to save him? What if we don't torture him as soon as possible and miss the best opportunity?" The elder sneered.
Chen Xiang suddenly said: "As long as you let me live well, my accomplices will come. Although my strength is very weak, I have something very important on me that is worth their risk."
"What could you have on you? You don't even have a magic storage weapon!" an old man said with disdain.
"Good things can be hidden inside the body!" After Shen Xiang finished speaking, he released the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword and let it float in the air.
When they saw this mighty sword, the old men took a deep breath and let out low cries.
"The Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword... a legendary divine sword. I never thought I would be able to see it in my lifetime."
"It's really the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Blade. Those spiritual patterns look so familiar. Only that person could have created it."
"This kid is really very important!"
"I heard that once the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword identifies a person, it will merge with that person's soul. The sword will also die when the person dies. Back then, that guy Qi Shi paid a huge price to be separated from the divine sword."
Ji Linger opened her mouth slightly as she looked at the dazzling Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword. She had heard of the legend of this divine sword when she was very young. She didn't expect that this kid actually had such a thing. She had been deceived by Shen Xiang before and thought he was just a small follower.
Shen Xiang didn't expect that the Four Symbols Divine Weapons were so famous here that they would produce such an effect!
"This matter must not be spread out! Ling'er, you are responsible for taking care of him. He is not allowed to have any contact or talk with anyone. You and he will be placed under house arrest in Tiange. This news cannot be leaked out." The patriarch of the Ji family said seriously.
"Yes!" Ji Ling'er responded quickly, feeling relieved. She knew that the Ji family wanted to get the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword. Although three million holy stones were a lot, they were nothing compared to the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword.
Shen Xiang and Ji Ling'er were brought to the top of a tall tower, which was the so-called Tiange.
There was a stone room at the top of the tower. It had no windows, only dark, solid, cold, thick walls, and a few small holes for ventilation and light. Ji Ling'er and Shen Xiang were imprisoned here.
"This is Tiange, it's terrible!"
Shen Xiang stood on a stone bench and looked outside through the ventilation hole. He could only see a large area of ??high mountains looming in the clouds.
"Be quiet!" Ji Ling'er called softly and sent him a message: "I'm trying to figure out how to get you out. Things have gone beyond my expectations."
"So, it's hard for me to run away?" Shen Xiang sat down. Judging from his expression, he was not very worried.
"Who gave you the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword? Otherwise, we wouldn't have locked you up here! This is an important place for our Ji family. Even if you run out of Tiange, it will be difficult to escape from this important place." Ji Linger sat on the ground hugging her knees, looking helpless.
Shen Xiang asked in a voice transmission: "Do you really have three million jin of Holy Stones?"
Ji Linger glared at him resentfully: "You ask even though you already know the answer. If it weren't for those holy stones, I wouldn't bother to talk to you!"
Chen Xiang curled his lips: "You were the one who arrested me first to take the blame, I can't let you succeed."
"Don't worry, although we are locked up in this place, there is still a way to get out. Let me think about it." Ji Linger's attitude was very good, which made Shen Xiang feel that she was quite pleasing to the eye.
The one who is anxious now is Ji Ling'er, she is worried that Shen Xiang will give her away!
"If your plan goes well, you will also be punished. For the three million kilograms of holy stone, aren't you afraid of the Ji family's torture?"
Ji Linger smiled slightly: "You don't know this. At most they will lock me up for one or two thousand years. Although the crime I committed is serious, it won't be tortured."
"Spiritual Heroine, how about this, I rescue you and you give me one million jin of Holy Stone, how about that?" Shen Xiang said.
Ji Ling'er's beautiful eyes suddenly widened: "You save me? Then I will give you another one million kilograms of holy stones?"
Shen Xiang smiled and nodded.
Ji Linger frowned slightly, her eyes rolling: "But I should be the one to rescue you, so you can hand over those fifteen guys to me."
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "I have a way to get out, but you don't have any good solution now!"
Ji Linger snorted lightly: "Are you blackmailing me? If I don't agree, you will tell me about my possession of the Holy Stone, right?"
"No, we are cooperating! Think about it, it is because of me that you have the opportunity to plan to take three million kilograms of holy stones for yourself, but it didn't go smoothly afterwards. But with my help, I can help you get out of it!" Shen Xiang smiled: "I see that you don't have any feelings for the Ji family, so you should be willing to escape from the Ji family."
"You can think of it as, by cooperating with me, you don't have to pay anything, and you can get two million kilograms of holy stones, and you can also leave the Ji family."
Shen Xiang understood Ji Ling'er's current situation. From the attitudes of those elders, he could tell that she was not very popular in the Ji family. In addition, she wanted to monopolize the large number of holy stones owned by the Ji family, so he knew that she had some resentment towards the Ji family.
"That's right, I have this plan because of your appearance!" Ji Ling'er considered it carefully, and finally decided to cooperate with Shen Xiang, because Shen Xiang didn't have much time left, and soon someone would come to take him away, and then conduct research and isolate the Azure Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword from him.
And now she is unable to escape from Tiange. If Shen Xiang tells her story when he is taken away, she will not be imprisoned for thousands of years. She will be tortured by the Ji family to a point where her life would be worse than death.
"Give me the one million jin of Holy Stone. I am being quite polite and won't take away most of it from you." Shen Xiang stretched out his hand: "Don't worry, I will definitely take you away. We are now ants on the same string."
Ji Linger bit her lip with some heartache, and hurriedly handed Shen Xiang ten storage bags. Shen Xiang checked them with his spiritual sense, confirmed the amount inside, and nodded with satisfaction.
They all communicated secretly, so the person guarding the door wouldn't hear it!
"Hurry up and act. It will be too late if those old guys go and ask some experts for help." Ji Ling'er urged.
