Chapter 126: Compensation
The main city of Sunrise.
The headquarters of the League of Knights is located.
Although many knights of the Knight Alliance have not been stationed in the main city of Sunrise, most of the star refiners and great star refiners who belong to the Knight Alliance live in the main city of Sunrise.
Unlike the members of the Knights, they don't need to train the fit of the Starstripe Circle at all times, so naturally there is no need to eat and live with the Knights.
Yes, the entire Knight Alliance is divided into two parts, one part is the knight fortress where many knights are stationed, and the other part is the star refiners, star refiners, and great star refiners who live in the main city of Sunrise.
According to the information left by Ji Yayi, Wang Cheng soon came to the third district of the main city of Rixi, Jinquan Restaurant is very famous in this area, Wang Cheng asked where its location was after a little inquiry.
In room 12, Wang Cheng knocked on the door, but it was neither Wu Xin nor Wang Xuanji who opened the door, but Wang Tong, the head of the Wang family.
Seeing Wang Cheng outside the door, Wang Tong's expression was faintly ugly, but he still said: "Wang Cheng, you are here, come in first." β
Wang Cheng stepped into the room and glanced at it, in addition to Wang Tong, there was also Wang Zong, the real principal of the Wang family, and two martial arts guards who broke the spiritual barrier, Wu Xin and Wang Xuanji were still nowhere to be seen.
Wang Zong glanced at Wang Cheng, seemed to see what he was looking for, and said in a deep voice: "The housing prices of Jinquan Restaurant are too high, I asked Wang Xuanji and them to stay in a hotel in the back temporarily." β
Just listening to Wang Zong's tone of conversation, which was completely unenthusiastic from before, Wang Cheng knew that they must have obtained their exact information.
"Call her here, there are some things, it should be clear. β
Wangcheng Road.
"You really should give us an explanation. β
There was obvious dissatisfaction in Wang Tong's tone.
Wang Cheng glanced at him, nothing, just waiting.
And one of the guards beside Wang Zong went to the hotel in the alley behind the Jinquan Hotel and called Wang Xuanji, Wu Xin and others over.
Compared with Wu Xin's complicated face, when Wang Xuanji saw Wang Cheng, she couldn't help but shout in surprise: "Ah Cheng......"
Wang Cheng nodded at Wang Xuanji, and then turned to Wang Zongdao: "Since you have already received the news, I won't say anything superfluous, in fact, I have long expected this kind of situation, so although I am engaged to Xuanji, I have never touched her." β
Wang Cheng's words made the happy look on Wang Xuanji's face dim a little.
"You're cheating!"
Wang Tong said in a deep voice, with suppressed anger in his tone.
"It doesn't matter whether I cheat or not now, I come up with two methods, you see which one to choose, the first one, keep it as it is, you helped me in my most difficult moment, and one day I will achieve something, and I will definitely promote the Wang family and lead the development of the Wang family. β
"Accomplishing something...... Your star source talent is actually only, don't make some achievements, whether you can become a star refiner is very questionable, not to mention that you also used insidious means to kill Bai Daosheng, a star refiner who belongs to the Flame Sword, according to this matter, it has aroused the wrath of several Star Refiners of the Flame Sword, they are all Bai Daosheng's friends and masters, according to those Star Refiners have already spoken, unless you stay in the Knight Alliance and don't go out, otherwise, they will definitely not give up, what other opportunities can you have for growth in the future?"
Wang Tong said mercilessly.
The Black Hole Induction Technique was sold privately by Viscount Xiao Luo, and they obviously didn't know about it, and the power of the Wang family was limited to the Star Gazing City under the Star Rail City, and they obviously couldn't detect the news in the Knight Alliance, in their opinion, Wang Cheng, who only had the talent of the Star Source, wanted to become a Star Refiner on his own, it was simply a fool's dream.
Wang Cheng was unmoved, and knocked on the table: "Then, according to the second plan, your Wang family has invested a lot in me, and I am willing to ......repay it all."
"Repay, what do you pay?"
Wang Tong was obviously in charge of singing blackface today, and he snorted coldly: "Although you have joined the Knight Alliance, you are just a reserve knight, and we bought a lot of materials for you, plus the materials for preparing the Star Power Array, and some other materials, the total amount has reached hundreds of Star Stones......"
"I'll compensate you with a thousand star stones. β
Wang Cheng was faint.
When the price of a thousand star stones was quoted, Wang Zong and Wang Tong in the room suddenly stagnated, and their originally slightly stern reprimands stopped abruptly.
"One...... A Thousand Star Stones!?"
After a while, Wang Zong and Wang Tong came back to their senses, the two glanced at each other, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, among which Wang Tong asked in disbelief: "Wang Cheng, ...... What did you just ......do? Compensate us for a ...... A Thousand Star Stones?Such an important thing, you can't joke about it......"
"I'm not kidding, I'll compensate you with a thousand star stones. β
Wang Cheng glanced at Wang Zong and Wang Tong, and did not have any disdain for the reaction of the two of them.
From the day he first joined the Wang family, the Wang family's investment in him was to be optimistic about his potential, and there was no affection between them at all, and the two sides could take what they needed.
A transaction.
As for Wang Xuanji......
It's just an extra bargaining chip for this deal, and its value is far less than a hundred Star Stones.
"Your investment in me has only lasted for a year, and in one year, the hundred-star stone has increased tenfold, which is very cost-effective. β
Wangcheng Road.
One year, only one year.
He believed that even if he chose to double the compensation, the Wang family would definitely agree to write off the matter, but he did not ......
He was grateful for the help given by the Wang family when he was at his most depressed, so he directly quoted the sky-high price of a thousand star stones.
And a thousand star stones...... It was the maximum amount he could take out at the moment.
"A Thousand Star Stones...... Okay, okay, as long as you are willing to compensate us with a thousand star stones, this matter will be revealed. β
Wang Zong waved his hand fiercely.
A thousand star stones, there are a thousand star stones, even if he has the hope of being able to rush to the star refiner realm, and even the remaining star stones are expected to cultivate another star refiner for the family, since he can break through to the star refiner realm, why invest in another outsider?
"As long as you give us a thousand star stones now, it will be okay for the two of us from now on. β
Wang Tong heard Wang Zong's words, and he was also hurried.
Hearing Wang Tong's words, Wang Xuanji's pretty face was full of paleness.
It doesn't have anything to do with it......
And what about her, what is she?
In the Wang family, she is a tool, a tool that can be sold without hesitation as long as it can be sold at a satisfactory price.
"The Star Stone can be given to you now! I have an additional condition. β
Wang Cheng took out a bag, and what was placed in it was a large number of star stones.
"You!
Looking at the bag of star stones, Wang Zong and Wang Tong's breathing became noticeably short.
A thousand star stones, even one star refiner would be crazy about it, let alone a mortal martial artist who is not at the realm of two star refiners?
"Wang Xuanji and me, she has nothing to do with your Wang family from now on. β
Wang Cheng was faint.
His words suddenly made Wang Xuanji, whose face was pale, seem to have grasped a life-saving straw, and his dark eyes rejuvenated.
"Wang Xuanji with you?"
Wang Tong's eyes rolled: "Wang Xuanji is the daughter of Wang Dongtian, and Wang Dongtian can only make a decision on this matter." β
"Yes, then when you make a decision, I won't be too late to deliver the star stone to you. β
Wang Cheng directly put away the bag full of star stones, and at the same time said in a somewhat cold voice: "Wang Xuanji is already engaged to me, she is my person, and then I will take her to the Knight Alliance, if you think about it, you will come directly to the Knight Alliance to find me." β
"I'm going to the Knights League to find you......"
Wang Tong and they are not even star cultivators, and they don't have any power in the main city of Sunrise, once Wang Cheng takes Wang Xuanji to the Knight Alliance, they don't have to find Wang Cheng, and they can't even enter the threshold of the Knight Alliance.
Moreover, a thousand star stones were in front of them, but they were taken away by Wang Cheng again at this moment, Wang Zong and Wang Tong trembled in their hearts at the same time, and they couldn't care about anything else at the moment, and hurriedly said: "Since Wang Xuanji is your person, then she should go with you, even her father is no longer qualified to dictate her future." β
"Good. β
Wang Cheng said and handed the bag to Wang Zong.
"Let's go. β
Between the words, he pulled Wang Xuanji, who didn't know whether to be sad or moved, and walked out.
And Wang Zong and Wang Tong were in a hurry to distribute the huge amount of money from the Thousand Star Stones, and they didn't pay attention to the two at all.
"Ah Cheng ......"
As Wang Cheng took Wang Xuanji out of Jinquan Restaurant, her expression obviously darkened, and her spirit shrank even more.
Wang Cheng glanced around, and a shop similar to a Mortal World cafΓ© appeared in front of him: "Let's go and sit there." β
Wang Xuan bowed her head, at this moment she had just experienced the fate of being abandoned by her family, even if she had already been mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but be in a trance, and was pulled by Wang Cheng into this shop with the name of Brilliant Leaf.
"I believe you are very confused about the next path to take, I can give you two choices, haven't you always hoped that you can achieve something and control your own destiny, the first choice, I will find a way to let you worship under a star refiner, and I will find a way to pay all the expenses incurred during the study until you become a star refiner. β
After sitting down, Wang Cheng was blunt.
Wang Xuanji's expression was very low: "I ...... I know I'm not worthy of you...... But, can you let me continue to follow you...... Even if you are just a maid or a servant, you need someone to take care of your daily life......"
"So, you want to choose the second option, continue to maintain the status quo, you are my fiancΓ©e, but I am just a character in the Knights League now, a reserve knight, and I can't take you to the Knights Alliance, so we need to live separately, maybe we won't see each other for a few months or years. β
"I can wait for you. β
As soon as Wang Cheng was finished, Wang Xuanji hurriedly said: "I'm willing to wait, I'm willing to wait as long as I want." β
Wang Cheng frowned: "Didn't you always want to become a star refiner, isn't it good for you to worship under a star refiner, become a star refiner, and control your future destiny." β
Wang Xuanji glanced up at Wang Cheng, and quickly lowered her head again, her pretty face was full of sadness: "The brother who loves me the most has passed away, and in my father's mind, I am just a commodity that can be sold at any time, and I don't have a single relative in this world......"
Wang Cheng looked at Wang Xuanji and was silent.
He understood what Wang Xuanji meant.
And Wang Xuanji just lowered her head and didn't say a word.
"I see, then, it's your choice?"
"Yes. β
"Good. β
Wang Cheng stood up: "Then, I accept your choice, from now on, as long as you don't betray me, something like this will not happen again." β
ββββββ
(From God's point of view, the Wang family's choice is wrong, but put yourself in their shoes, I'm afraid it's the same, it's like if you invest in a mine, and now the mine is about to go bankrupt, do you increase your investment, or do you hurry up and leave?)
