"Ah, no, this is too precious."
Before Nangong Lingyun could finish speaking, Shui Binger jumped up from the bed like a frightened bird, quickly shielding her sister behind her.
Recently, the Kaiyuan Sect's divine medicine has caused a sensation throughout the Spirit Master's world, so of course she would recognize it.
This thing is worth 500,000 gold coin for every ten thousand years of age, and it's only available internally to training camp members; those that are 70,000 years old are impossible to buy even with money, and can only be exchanged for Spirit Bone.
Half a month ago, a 20,000-year-old divine medicine, which somehow flowed into the auction house, was actually sold for the astronomical price of 6.8 million.
The mysterious person who made the bid forcibly forced the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to withdraw, and the entire auction house almost went crazy at the time, filled with exclamations.
Although the Shui family owns an advanced Spirit Master academy, and can be considered top-tier power in the Heaven Dou Empire,
this thing is really a bit beyond their ability; her 30,000-year-old one already cost her mother her life.
Shui Yue'er obviously also knew the importance of the matter,
and didn't continue to joke around as usual, but solemnly said:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I dare not accept this."
Nangong Lingyun smiled faintly and directly revealed his true intentions:
"Bing Er, you should know that I greatly appreciate you.
Calm, composed, resolute, quick-witted, and good at restraining yourself, rarely showing emotions, and seldom letting reason be swayed by your mood.
At the same time, your talent in Cultivation is extremely outstanding, and with normal development, you can at least reach the Title Douluo level.
For a large force, it's too difficult to find an heir who possesses both of these qualities.
I've been recruiting talents from Tianxia, and so far, only Jing Ling barely meets the requirements,
but obviously, with the Kaiyuan Sect's scale and ambitions, he alone is far from enough.
If you can join my command, you will not only be cultivated as an absolute core member of the next generation, but you will also have the opportunity to take charge of either the Kaiyuan Academy or the Kaiyuan Business Association in the future.
Moreover, according to Sect rules, all Cultivation resources will be the responsibility of the Sect; spiritual medicine, divine medicine, spirit ring Spirit Bone, Cultivation Method combat skills, you don't need to worry about anything.
In addition, since all resources are the responsibility of the Sect,
the 1.5 million gold coin previously used to purchase the divine medicine will of course be returned; I can decide not to return the money, but to replace it with this 70,000-year-old divine medicine.
You can give it to anyone."
Nangong Lingyun's eyes were burning; Shui Binger was truly too perfect.
In terms of talent, appearance, and looks alone, perhaps a few others could be found to compare,
but if you add her personality and wisdom, she directly crushes the love-brained and average IQ of 0.5 Douluo World.
If Gu Yuena's talent and background weren't so heaven-defying, and Angel Yan wasn't so unwilling to be second to anyone, he would have even considered letting her become his primary wife in the future, managing and commanding his harem.
That way, the family would definitely be well-organized, and he would be extremely worry-free.
But with every gain, there must be a loss.
Her powerful wisdom and temperament also make Shui Binger the most difficult and slowest to conquer among all the girls.
Someone like Hu Liena, with her love-brain, doesn't require much effort at all; just because he didn't treat her specially, her favorability actually inexplicably skyrocketed every once in a while, and it feels like she's about to give herself away for free.
I don't know what she's thinking in her head.
Probably something like a domineering CEO novel…
Very good, man, you have successfully caught my attention?
Even the Silver Dragon King is already at fifty percent now,
the seduction scheme hasn't worked, but he's already using a handsome man scheme on himself first.
But with Shui Binger, carefully planning and plotting, the final result is that her intentions are seen through.
If it weren't for the System's settlement information, Nangong Lingyun wouldn't even know that he had been seen through,
fighting hard for almost a month, breaking her defense several times, and finally reaching forty percent; this is still the result of already using Spirit Fusion Skill.
Otherwise, it might only be twenty.
Faced with this situation, Nangong Lingyun decided to use a little less scheming and a little more sincerity, and directly draw his sword.
After Nangong Lingyun finished speaking, the air suddenly fell silent,
Shui Binger lowered her head and thought seriously, and Yue'er didn't dare to interrupt.
More than ten seconds later, she raised her head and said:
"You were so… helpful to me before, because you wanted to invite me to join the Kaiyuan Sect?"
"Otherwise? What did you think it was?
Oh, right, there was also the intention of assessing you."
Nangong Lingyun first looked strange, then suddenly realized,
acting as if he had never thought of that aspect at all, and didn't know what she was talking about.
Although Bing Er saw through his scheme, she didn't show it at the time, after all, she doesn't show her emotions,
so, he can create a "misunderstanding" and make her mistakenly believe that she misunderstood him at the time.
As soon as these words came out,
Shui Binger's face instantly turned red as if ink had been splashed on it.
The immense shame made her body sway, almost collapsing to the ground.
She roared in her heart with unparalleled shame and remorse:
"Ah, Shui Binger, what on earth are you thinking in your head?
A narcissist?
What kind of person is Nangong Lingyun? The dignified Kaiyuan School Master, with Titled Douluo guards by his side, and his own talent and intelligence shake the past and present,
Even the leaders of the Upper Three Sects must treat him with courtesy.
Gu Na'er and other beauties flock to him but have never succeeded, and there are also Hu Liena, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and others who are all eagerly waiting.
With so many beauties rushing to him, why would he covet your little bit of ordinary looks?
You even thought that he was approaching you because he wanted to hit on you, aren't you too self-righteous?
You're simply a confident and disgusting woman, thankfully you didn't show anything strange at the time, otherwise…"
If Gu Yuena were here,
she would definitely see through it instantly; wake up, girl, this is still a scheme, although it's a brand new version, the essence is still that he's after your body.
You're on the third level thinking he's on the first level, but in reality, he's on the fifth level pretending to be on the first level.
This has nothing to do with wisdom, it's purely because she understands someone's nature too well,
a man who rushes to eight places a day, pursuing different beauties at the same time, is there any credibility in this regard?
But the more the clever Shui Binger thought about it, the more ashamed she became, her head almost turning into a steam engine.
She felt that she had lost a lot of face this time, constantly fighting wits and courage with the air.
There's no way, she's fallen into a cognitive bias.
Shui Yue'er didn't dare to disturb her sister's thoughts earlier,
but now, seeing Bing Er like this, she reached out and supported her forehead, and said with extremely exaggerated tone and expression:
"Well, now he's really going to be my brother-in-law."
Then she was suppressed by her sister's iron fist at lightning speed,
"Don't talk nonsense."
"I won't say it, I won't say it, my mouth is very tight, especially since the hush money is so expensive, I can't even afford to sell myself."
After Yue'er finished speaking, she slipped out of the room with a whoosh, leaving the two of them alone.
Nangong Lingyun decisively brought his head closer and gently asked in her ear:
"Bing Er, are you okay? Why is your face so red?"
"I'm fine, I was just thinking about some things."
"That's good, what's your decision? Do you want to join the Kaiyuan Sect?"
"Join, I'll join."
