"Miss Zhou, Master Wang is a great master of Taoism. The authority of a master cannot be offended. Miss Zhou needs to understand this clearly."

Mr. Long persuaded me directly and his meaning was very clear.

Zhou Zhijie muttered her mouth a few times, and it was obvious that she hesitated.

Mr. Long didn't say anything more. If Zhou Zhijie still doesn't know how to give in at this time, at least she should be convinced by Wang Lun on the surface, then Zhou Zhijie will be hopeless.

Arrogance can actually kill a person sometimes.

As Grand Master Wang Lun, even if Zhou Zhijie is really killed now, he can guarantee that the Zhou family will not be able to do anything to Wang Lun in the end.

"Okay, I'll listen to Mr. Long."

Zhou Zhijie hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Then she walked up and said to Wang Lun: "Mr. Wang, I have no objection to the ownership of the Flame Snake's body."

"Then you can go."

Wang Lun said coldly.

He originally killed the Flame Snake, and how to deal with it was entirely up to him.

Zhou Zhijie suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, I want to make a deal with you to get something from the Flame Snake."

Wang Lun smiled coldly: "Don't you just want to get the inner elixir of the Yan Snake?"

Fierce beasts who have successfully cultivated will have inner elixirs in their bodies, which are roughly equivalent to the Dantian of ascetics.

Ascetics rely on the Dantian to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and ferocious beasts still rely on the power of heaven and earth for cultivation. However, ordinary ferocious beasts cannot form inner elixirs, and must reach a certain advanced stage of cultivation.

A flaming snake like this one is already at the peak of the late stage of a real person. It is not surprising that the inner elixir is born within the body.

This inner elixir contains the essence of the Flame Snake's cultivation, just like the blood essence of a cultivator.

Therefore, if used well, this inner elixir can play a huge role in curing diseases, promoting cultivation, refining magic weapons, etc.

Zhou Zhijie didn't expect Wang Lun to reveal his purpose of coming to Gongtian Mountain in one word, but it didn't feel strange after thinking about it.

She said: "Mr. Wang originally wanted to bid for a jade box, and then use the jade box to preserve the inner elixir of the Flame Snake, right?"

The same goes for her. The difference is that she underestimated the strength of the Flame Snake and did not directly obtain the inner elixir.

"That's right," Wang Lun did not deny it, and continued, "I need the inner elixir, and I won't trade it to you."

Zhou Zhijie also thought of this. After all, Wang Lun came for the Flame Snake Inner Pill from the beginning. She said: "I don't need a whole inner elixir, maybe one-fifth will be enough."

Then, she told the reason.

It turns out that the old man of the Zhou family, her grandfather Zhou Xinglong, who is currently the pillar of the Zhou family, is dying due to old age. The root cause of a serious illness she suffered in his early years has left her grandfather with deep depression in his later years.

After being tortured, his life span was greatly affected.

This root cause of the disease caused yin energy to linger in Zhou Xinglong's body, and every trace of yin energy penetrated deeply into Zhou Xinglong's meridians and flesh.

Even the various Taoist masters invited were helpless.

Mr. Long is her father's good friend and has a high level of cultivation. He once treated her grandfather Zhou Xinglong and concluded that there was nothing he could do. The yin energy had been entrenched for a long time and even a great monasticism master would find it difficult to remove it.

All the experts in the medical field have been called upon, but there is nothing they can do.

According to estimates, if the root cause of the disease could be eliminated, her grandfather could live five more years.

And if nothing is done, it is estimated that within half a year from now, her grandfather will leave Hexi.

At present, the Zhou family is relatively united, but foreign aggression is serious. Jinling has been a big city since ancient times, and there have always been several super powerful forces in the city. The Zhou family can compete with the top three in terms of wealth, but in terms of overall strength, the Zhou family is one of the super powerful forces.

, the one at the end of the crane.

If Zhou Xinglong is gone, the Zhou family will probably be overtaken by the next ranked family.

This transcendence is not simply a competition of terms. It will be accompanied by various conflicts in the process, and the fate of the Zhou family may be greatly affected.

Finally, Mr. Long gave a piece of advice, which was to find something that could clear the yin energy from her grandfather's body.

This matter started three years ago.

The family successively sent her father, her uncle, her uncles, cousins, etc. to lead teams around the world to inquire and search for this kind of thing.

The characteristic of this kind of thing is that it can target Yin energy and reconcile it with Yang, rather than simply removing Yin energy.

After all, even the great master of Taoism may not be able to simply remove the yin energy. It is too difficult. However, using the method of harmonizing yin and yang will not only not hurt the old man, but also be effective.

But after three years, nothing that meets the requirements has been found.

Her grandfather's condition has been deteriorating. Mr. Long diagnosed and treated her grandfather a few days ago. Her grandfather's life expectancy is less than half a year.

Therefore, when she learned that there was a Flame Snake somewhere in Gongtian Mountain, she organized an elite force and came to Gongtian Mountain to hunt down the Flame Snake.

"Mr. Wang, that's what happened. I need part of Yan Snake's inner elixir to treat my grandfather's illness."

Zhou Zhijie continued, "I only want a part, and Mr. Wang has the final say on the price."

Wang Lun didn't mention the price first and asked Mr. Long: "Is this true?"

"Yes, about one-fifth of the inner elixir can solve the problem." Mr. Long answered honestly.

"Okay, I can sell it to you." Wang Lun said directly.

He wanted to use the inner elixir of the Flame Snake to improve his cultivation, but it would be cost-effective to part with a small portion of it in exchange for money.

"How much does Mr. Wang want?" Zhou Zhijie's mood finally recovered.

As long as she can buy the inner elixir with money and cure her grandfather's disease, everything will be worth it.

Wang Lun held out five fingers.

"Fifty million?" Zhou Zhijie felt that it was a bit expensive, but it was not unacceptable. She nodded and said, "Okay, I will transfer the money immediately."

Wang Lun smiled.

Zhou Zhijie came to her senses and was a little stunned: "Five hundred million?"

Since it is not 50 million, it certainly cannot be 5 million. It can only be higher than 50 million.

"Yes." Wang Lun was not embarrassed. When it comes to buying and selling, fairness is important, and he would not buy or sell by force.

Zhou Zhijie's expression changed: "Mr. Wang, the sky-high price of 500 million to buy a small part of the inner elixir is too expensive!"

Young Master Su and other young masters were really dumbfounded.

This transaction is worth 500 million at once?

Liu Zihui couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth because he was surprised. His father was the richest man in the county, but his total assets totaled less than 300 million.

And that is all assets, including various real estate properties, such as factories, residences, luxury cars, etc.

It would be very difficult for his father to come up with real money in cash, let alone 100 million, or even 50 million.

As for Wang Lun, he only had to sell the Flame Snake thing that seemed to be snake gallbladder, and he only had to sell a fifth of it, so he asked Zhou Zhijie to offer him 500 million!

"If you think it's too expensive, you can find someone else." Wang Lun didn't want to bargain.

Zhou Zhijie frowned and said, "It's only one-fifth of the inner elixir."

Wang Lun smiled and said: "But it can cure your grandfather's disease, can't it?"

Originally, he didn't need to offer such a high price, and this was also a lesson to Zhou Zhijie.

Zhou Zhijie fell silent.

500 million, in exchange for four and a half more years of her grandfather's life. Considering that money cannot buy life, this is very reasonable.

But she couldn't ignore the amount of money she lost.

This is five hundred million.

The Zhou family is a super family in Jinling. The total wealth of the Zhou family is around 100 billion, but that wealth is measured by assets, not real money.

Even if the Zhou family wanted to withdraw 500 million from the bank, they would have to take out almost half of the Zhou family's cash flow!

After all, no big family would put cash directly in the bank. She could imagine that if she reported this to her family, most people would object.

Having to take out half of the cash will seriously restrict the normal operation of the Zhou family, not to mention the amount of money is really scary.

There are many multi-millionaires now, but billionaires' money is mostly concentrated in assets. She is sure that if any family in Jinling were to give away 500 million in cash at once, there would be fierce debates within the family.

Even if it is used to treat the old man's illness.

"However, compared to the sky-high price of 500 million, the old man's health is more important. I have no choice. Even if I know that he is so open-minded, I can only endure it."

Zhou Zhijie thought in her heart.

Finally, she nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then please take out the jade box. I want to use it to store the inner elixir of the Flame Snake." Wang Lun said.

Only a jade box made of top-quality jade materials can ensure that the energy loss of the inner alchemy is slowed down to the greatest extent.

After all, such a large inner elixir contains a lot of energy, and it is impossible for him to refine, absorb and convert the energy into his own within a few hours.

He had to spend several days gradually refining the energy of the Flame Snake's inner elixir.

Zhou Zhijie took out the jade box as instructed, and then asked: "Then what should we do next?"
