Chapter 5896
5896 The elixir God’s successor
Now that he had offered 500000 spiritual jades in one go, which was only enough for a cup of tea, it was obvious that this old thing had grasped his weakness and took the opportunity to raise the price, but Zheng dongjue had no choice but to agree.
After gritting his teeth, Zheng dongjue secretly gave out a Blue Spirit Jade card. He had brought enough spirit Jade for this trip to the northernmost Island, but he had already spent fifteen million spirit Jade on the ancient battleship to trick Lin Yi. Now, he was giving out another one and a half million spirit Jade. Even he couldn’t help but feel the pain.
Zheng dongjue forced a smile when he saw that steward song had kept the spirit Jade card with satisfaction. He said respectfully,””Brother song, I won’t say any more nonsense. This matter is really just a misunderstanding. We are old friends. For the sake of our many years of friendship, you must help me!”
Steward song frowned slightly. He was greedy for spirit Jade, but after taking the spirit Jade, he would still do something. Of course, he knew what Zheng Dong was asking him to do, but he couldn’t guarantee anything.
As for their many years of friendship? Hehe, without spiritual Jade, who would be friends with you?
“Brother Zheng, on the northernmost Island, everything else is up to you, but this matter concerns the young Island master. I’ll be honest with you, this is no longer something I can interfere with. At most, I can help you put in a good word for him. Whether it works or not depends on his mood.” Steward song was quite straightforward. Only a fool would ask for more spiritual Jade at this time.
However, when Zheng dongjue heard this, he felt relieved. At least, since steward song had said so, it meant that he would indeed do it and not just give it a perfunctory reply.
Zheng dongjue first expressed his thanks with a face full of gratitude. He then muttered to himself for a moment before saying,”Brother song, I know that it’s already very difficult for you to plead with the young Island master, but this little brother still has a presumptuous request. If it’s convenient, can brother song help introduce this little brother to the young Island master? there are some things …”
Steward song immediately looked displeased.”Brother Zheng, I’m only willing to risk offending the young Island master to help you on account of our many years of friendship. If you want to take an inch and ask for a yard, don’t blame me for not helping you.”
Putting in a good word in front of li Zeyu, it didn’t matter whether it would work or not. It wouldn’t affect steward song’s own status, but if he were to introduce Zheng dongjue to him, there was a great chance that he would bring fire upon himself and make li Zeyu unhappy. This kind of thing, steward song would definitely not do it even if he was beaten to death.
Zheng dongjian spat in his heart, thinking,’what kind of friendship are you looking at? I’m charging five hundred thousand spiritual Jade for some trashy tea and snacks. You’re just a black-hearted old man!’
However, he also understood that after seeing li Zeyu’s matter, that song guy would definitely not help. No matter how many spiritual jades he offered, it would not be of any use. Left with no choice, Zheng dongjue could only settle for the next best thing. He cupped his fists and pleaded,”Brother song, then I’ll have to trouble you to help me bring a message to the young Island master. Perhaps he’ll change his mind after hearing it.”
Steward song did some calculations in his heart. This matter didn’t matter, so he nodded and said,””Tell me about it first. It’s not bad news. As your brother, of course I’ll help you!”
If he had such a brother, Zheng dongjue felt that he would rather be a Lone Star …
After looking around, Zheng dongjue apologized and approached steward song, whispering in his ear,””Brother song, actually, Grandmaster Yi, who came from our pill Hall this time, is …”
When the low voice reached steward song’s ears, his expression changed slightly. He asked seriously,””Is everything you said true?”
“I’m not lying!” Zheng dongjue was also extremely serious. He originally wanted to follow Tong wozha’s words and persuade li Zao Yi to come forward and ask someone to help intercede.
But now, he felt that there was no need to go through so much trouble, because he, Zheng dongjue, knew something that even the referee didn’t know. Li Zeyu would probably consider it carefully after hearing about it.
“Good! I’ll go find the young Island master now. Brother Zheng, you can go back first and wait for my news!” Steward song’s lazy appearance was swept away, and his entire aura became sharp.
After he finished speaking, steward song told his men to close the door and refuse all guests. He would not meet anyone today!
“If that’s the case, I’ll go back and wait for your good news, brother song!” Zheng dongjue quickly got up and cupped his fists. Goodbye!”
After returning, Zheng dongjue went to see li Zao Yi’s residence. Whether it was asking her to help look for someone or if her information had been leaked, he always had to mention it vaguely. Unfortunately, li Zao Yi still didn’t return.
As for Tong wuhui, he didn’t come back either. He didn’t know if his meeting with hou guanqi had gone well. It had been so long, so he should have heard back by now.
He suppressed his anxiety and walked back and forth in the room for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Then, a Northern Garrison guard rushed to him and informed him,””The young Island master wants you to go over immediately!”
Zheng dongjue was overjoyed. He knew that steward song had delivered his message. The 1.5 million spirit Jade had been well spent!
As for whether they were invited over or not, who would care about such a small matter?
Zheng Dong followed the northern Battlefront Wei to the Li family’s residence. He had simulated countless ways to deal with the situation, but he still had no confidence in himself.
Suddenly, he felt a little regretful. He should have told this news to crouching Tong before. At least crouching Tong would know how to make better use of this news and how to respond to li Zeyu’s questions. Unfortunately, it was too late now.
After arriving at the Li family’s house, someone naturally took Zheng dongjue to the living room to see li Zeyu. After Zheng dongjue stepped through the door, he confirmed li Zeyu’s position and quickly lowered his head. He bowed respectfully and quickly stepped forward to greet with cupped fists,””Zheng dongjue greets the young Island master!”
If the dignified vice Hall Master of the pill Hall were to be seen by others with such a submissive appearance, the reputation of the pill Hall would probably not be any less than being expelled from the northernmost Island.
Steward song stood at the side, looking down and pretending not to see Zheng dongjue. Li Zeyu sat on the main seat and lazily waved his hand,””No need to be so polite. You should know why I called you here, right?”
“Many thanks to Young Island master for your willingness to see me, I am extremely grateful!” Zheng dongjue straightened his body slightly. His eyes were still lowered, and he maintained a humble posture.
“Cut the crap. I originally wanted the divine Alchemist and medical Saint Zhang Liju to come personally before I allowed your pill Hall to enter the northernmost Island again. I didn’t expect you to say that the successor of the divine Alchemist and medical Saint is already here. You’re not lying, are you?” Li Zeyu looked at Zheng dongjue with some suspicion. If he dared to lie to him again, then the entire pill Hall would not be able to leave the northernmost Island.
