"This is truly the first time someone has ever spoken so blatantly about 'borrowing power from a powerful figure' to your face," Li Lianhua chuckled.
"It seems that with Li Xiangyi, that tiger, around, I won't get anything this time."
Jiao Liqiao flicked the Lotus Pavilion wooden plaque in her hand. "We've come all this way, there's no way we'll leave empty-handed. How about this, I'll give you this one, and you give me that little portrait from last time?"
As the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, if people found out that she brought so many people out and brought nothing back, wouldn't she be ridiculed to death? She had been eyeing that statue for a long time.
"You're joking, Miss Jiao. As the saying goes, out with the old, in with the new. It's been used for quite a while now, so it's time to get a new one. I'm here, so I can start writing as soon as I get back. It won't delay me."
Wu You: Do you think I'm so easily manipulated? In this world, everything gets new; who wants the old? Although that Lotus Pavilion wooden plaque was carved and painted by Li Lianhua herself ten years ago, she's quite reluctant to part with it.
"It seems like a real pity. We'll just have to head back home then."
If you can't win by fighting, and they won't listen to reason, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. Let's go back and think of other ways.
"Wait, since Miss Jiao likes it so much, I won't take it from her. How about I give you the Lotus Pavilion wooden plaque plus one condition I haven't thought of yet?"
"Didn't you say you didn't care? You have someone who can write for you anytime. Why do you want it now?"
Jiao Liqiao couldn't understand Wu You's thought process for a moment. Who would betray someone like that?
"It's nothing much, I just suddenly thought of a very old little building and a very new wooden sign. They don't match at all. If we can exchange them, we can. Anyway, the little statue of the beautiful Jiao Da is of no use to me."
"Okay." Jiao Liqiao readily agreed, completely surprised and delighted. She had just been thinking of throwing it away, but thankfully she hadn't.
With a flick of her wrist, Jiao Liqiao sent the wooden plaque of Lotus Pavilion flying toward Li Lianhua and Wu You, which Li Lianhua caught.
Since it was an exchange and everyone else had given theirs readily, Wu You didn't hesitate either. He rummaged through his purse and finally found it, then handed it to Li Lianhua.
Li Lianhua raised her hand and turned it into a tool for passing items.
Jiao Liqiao reached out and took it, examining it carefully. It was indeed the same small portrait as before, and she was still beautiful and pretty.
"gone."
Jiao Liqiao shouted and led the Golden Kite Alliance members away.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly turned around and stared at Wu You, his eyes becoming somewhat strange. "They say that death wipes out debts. If a person is gone, then any conditions that haven't been thought of will no longer exist, right?"
"Of course." Wu You waved to her. "Remember to strike decisively, otherwise if you fail, not only will you take the statue, but you'll also face double the retaliation. And remember, I'm very good at using someone else's power to intimidate others."
Jiao Liqiao glanced at Wu You, then glared at Li Lianhua. With Li Xiangyi, this formidable figure, who would dare to make a move easily? She turned and left with her men.
"Transaction complete, that's all for today." Watching Jiao Liqiao lead all the Golden Kite Alliance members away in a grand procession, Wu You stuffed the poison powder in his hand back into the space of the old house.
This thing is really convenient and quick for group fights. I'll ask Li Lianhua to make some more spares next time.
"Nanfeng, help me out, I'm leaving."
"Yes."
Wu You was helping Di Feisheng carry Nanfeng back when, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fang Duobing pick up the Erya sword from the ground and slowly walk towards Li Lianhua.
“I don’t think it’s that urgent. We can wait a bit.” Wu You patted Nanfeng’s arm, signaling him to stop.
