Puff!
Along with the sharp sound of skin being sliced open by a sword’s edge, blood spurted from Shu Ling’er’s throat.
She stared blankly at Xue An, seemingly unable to believe even now that Xue An would actually kill her.
But as the blood drained away, her beautiful eyes also lost their luster and gradually dimmed, her spirit perishing entirely.
After her death, Xue An casually removed the Divine Sense barrier, revealing Yue Qinghuan’s face full of anger, muttering something to herself.
"Stayed in there for so long without coming out, men truly are worthless..."
Just then, the Divine Sense barrier vanished.
Upon seeing Shu Ling’er’s corpse on the ground, Yue Qinghuan’s expression froze, then awkwardly smiled at Xue An.
"Ahem, you actually killed her?"
"What? Shouldn’t I have killed her? Or do you think she didn’t deserve to die?" Xue An said indifferently.
"Not at all, this woman deserved to die. I just didn’t expect you to act so decisively!" Yue Qinghuan laughed lightly.
Xue An gazed deeply at Yue Qinghuan, ignored her evasive words, and turned to Zhu Zhesheng.
"I’ve completed everything I promised you. Is there anything else to say?"
Zhu Zhesheng knelt to the ground, repeatedly bowing to Xue An, his forehead bloodied, staining the hall floor.
"Zhu Zhesheng, disciple of the Zhu Family, shall forever remember Mr. Xue’s immense kindness. I have nothing more to say but to ask Mr. Xue to help reclaim the ownership of the vein!"
Xue An raised an eyebrow, "Do you really need me to do that for you?"
Zhu Zhesheng raised his head earnestly and said, "I’ve made my decision, once you help reclaim the vein, its ownership will be yours, and I will merely manage it for you. Whenever you need anything, it will all be at your disposal!"
If anyone else were present, they would surely gasp.
Because that’s an enormous Spirit Stone Vein!
Such near-limitless wealth would drive anyone crazy.
But now Zhu Zhesheng was giving it to Xue An.
Such a grand gesture is extremely rare, almost unprecedented.
After listening to Zhu Zhesheng’s words, Xue An smiled faintly, "I appreciate your goodwill, but this Spirit Stone Vein is your Zhu Family’s ancestral property, and I won’t take it!"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhesheng became anxious, about to speak when Xue An gestured for him to calm down, then said in a deep voice.
"If you want to repay me, find a way to securely seal off this Immortal Sect’s cave estate, allowing no one near, because this mountain holds extraordinary significance to me!" Xue An said with bright eyes.
Zhu Zhesheng shook all over, immediately agreeing, "Yes! I’ll make this entire region a forbidden zone, however..."
He showed a troubled expression, "The Witch God Cult clearly knows about this place, so if they come looking in the future..."
Xue An waved a hand, "Don’t worry, they won’t come back. The opportunity here has vanished, leaving only a solitary mountain. Why would they come here?"
Only then did Zhu Zhesheng feel a bit reassured.
