103: Chapter 93 Recruitment for Equity (Subscribe Please) 103: Chapter 93 Recruitment for Equity (Subscribe Please) Ye Tian watched Su Changâan silently drinking tea, not replying immediately.
After a long while, just when Su Changâan thought his silence meant refusal, Ye Tian spoke.
âCommission?
Do you think I lack that little bit of commission?
Since Mr.
Su has brought it up, Iâll help you out a bit, on one condition, I want to be an investor just like you.
Can you make that decision?â
âOh, Mr.
Ye wishes to invest, may I know whether you plan to invest with magical treasures or money?â
âThis shop of yours isnât very large, right?
The investment shouldnât be much.
Given how ordinary the goods you currently sell are, a bit of my magical treasures should suffice.
Are we the type who lack money?â
Ye Tian then took another sip of tea, smiling.
âYou make a good point.
Thank you, Brother Ye, for your investment in our store.â
Su Changâan also displayed a carefree smile, it seemed Jiang Tangâs store was saved.
Preserving this store was a way to remember his friend Jiang Tang.
No matter if he was dead or alive, the store they had shared before had to be preserved.
The reason Su Changâan had stayed here for several days was not only to protect the store but also because he had killed people from the Huang Family for Jiang Tang.
It was possible someone knew it was Su Changâan who had killed the Huang Familyâs men.
At that time, he had created a protective barrier to prevent prying eyes from seeing Yan Weiwei and Cai Xiangxiang.
With Cai Xiangxiangâs fellow disciples dead, her master would know, and the Huang Family would know too, and perhaps they would search everywhere for Cai Xiangxiang.
This could also endanger Yan Weiwei, and by protecting her, he was doing his part, shielding his friendâs friend from harm.
Su Changâan valued the friendship with Jiang Tang, an ordinary man, as he was the first friend he had made outside.
âMr.
Su, have you noticed anything unusual lately?â
Of course, Ye Tian asked this for his work.
He had been at the Immortal Sect during this time, and if his homeâs scouts didnât inform him, he really wouldnât know if anything significant happened outside.
It was like making casual conversation at the moment.
âUnusual?
What does Mr.
Ye mean?
Changes in the natural world, or the appearance of rare treasures, or are you referring to people?â
âMr.
Su, Iâve been at the Immortal Sect these days.
Perhaps you have encountered any unusual people or changes in the world outside that you could tell me about.â
âChanges in the world?
A few days ago, I constantly carried a deadly poison on my body, but after seeking revenge for Jiang Tang, when I was returning, there was a light rain, then a rainbow appeared, followed by a sunset glow.
I was cured of the poison in my body amidst the spiritual energy of the rainbow.â
âOh, congratulations, Mr.
Su, youâve had a fortunate encounter.â
âYes, that poison which had accompanied me for many years, untreatable by numerous methods, was finally neutralized that day.
It is indeed a joyful thing.â
âWhat kind of poison was it on Mr.
Su?â
âThis poison is very strange, as if it had been concocted by someone.
I went to investigate at the Tang Sect, and also asked a friend to inquire with the people of the Tang Sect.
They said they hadnât seen this poison before.â
âOh, have you encountered any unusual people then?â
âThree days ago, returning from an auction where I purchased Spirit Grass, I encountered two ninjas who spoke a foreign language.
They were skillful in the art of invisibility and held a strange metal device which could emit secret projectile flames.â
Su Changâan thought for a moment, then decided to share what he had encountered.
It was necessary to communicate with the guardian god beside him.
âHermit?
A metal device that emits visible projectiles?
Let me draw the shape for you, and you can see if it looks like this?â
Suddenly, Ye Tian thought of the Barbarian Nation, a country of hermits practicing cultivation.
If hermits had come to this land to launch a surprise attack on the Nascent Soul elite disciples of the Cultivation World, it seemed premeditated.
He felt that this was just like the assault rifles or pistols used by soldiers in his past lifeâs high-technology era, where he sprayed the shape of a pistol with water from his hand using a cultivation technique.
âRight, it was a bit bigger than yours, but the shape was similar, and it had a strong attack power.
If I hadnât been at the Nascent Soul Stage, I might have been hit by his magical treasure and could have died that day.â
Su Changâan had not expected that Ye Tian knew more than he did; indeed, being a Guardian God, he knew more about other countriesâ affairs.
He couldnât compare to someone like him who only focused on cultivation, and it seemed he would have to learn from this Guardian God in the future.
âI understand now, this was a premeditated attack, you need to be careful in the future.â
âI think so too.â Su Changâan had only thought that those two people had followed him from the black market.
But upon further thought, something seemed off; they might have been specifically trying to ambush and kill him.
âHmm, their favorite thing to do is to kill someone and frame another.
I suspect the poison in you might be something developed by their country.â
Ye Tian knew that in the high-tech world, medical personnel could develop poisonous gases, creating a kind of poison that was impossible for people to cure, which was also a form of high technology.
âThat would explain why the poison in my body is so difficult to cure, but why would they poison me?â
Su Changâan found this matter increasingly complicated; it started as a personal issue, but if it involved national intrigue, it would be a major conspiracy.
âI have a magical treasure here.
If you wear it, those metal weapons wonât be able to touch you, and the areas with medicinal herbs will be fine.
There is one flaw, though; you have to protect your head and lower body.â
The magical treasure Ye Tian mentioned was, of course, a bulletproof Immortal Garment he had developed himself.
âMr.
Ye, thank you.
Can this magical treasure attack the enemy?
Or does it only defend?
Can this garment be enlarged?
Protect the whole body?â
Su Changâan had a series of questions.
It was his first time seeing such an Immortal Garment.
There were many in the Cultivation World who could refine Immortal Garments, generally refining a kind of defensive cultivation magical treasure that protected the body.
âWell, it might be able to enlarge.
Iâll fix the flaw for you.
The Immortal Garment can only defend, not attack.â
Ye Tian used his Spiritual Energy to refine the Immortal Garment into a slightly transparent white garment that could cover the body from head to foot and had the function of being breathable.
âTruly a genius at refining artifacts, I feel utterly inferior upon seeing this.â
Su Changâan knew that many artifact refiners used Spiritual Fire to refine their magical treasures.
If one didnât possess Spiritual Fire themselves, they needed to refine artifacts in a place with Spiritual Fire.
Many Immortal Sects and the caves of those who refined artifacts would have a Fire Spirit.
âMmm, Iâm accustomed to this method of refining artifacts.
I have a Fire Spirit Root myself, so thereâs no need for external fire.
The Immortal Garment is ready; give it a try.â
Ye Tian tossed the Immortal Garment to Su Changâan.
With a wave of his hand, Su Changâan opened the Immortal Garment and slipped it directly over his body.
It felt cool and refreshing inside and was very comfortable to wear, fitting like a second skin.
âThank you, Mr.
Ye, for this generous gift.â Su Changâan smiled gratefully.
âNo need to be polite,â Ye Tian replied with an easy smile.
Though they had only interacted for a short while, they talked as if they were old friends who had known each other for years, starting to exchange cultivation techniques.
