Chapter 1250 - Elder Jiu's Request
Panda Novel
Did he just refuse Elder Jiu?
The crowd had lost count of how many times Chen Xiaobei gave them a shock.
People of money all over the world practically had to beg to be able to even have a one-line conversation with Elder Jiu, but this Chen Xiaobei refused Elder Jiu’s invitation to sit down and chat like it was no big deal! All of those super rich men were put to shame when they compared themselves to Chen Xiaobei.
“What is it that you have to attend to? Will you need my assistance?” Elder Jiu was offended by the refusal but continued to speak amiably to Chen Xiaobei.
“Oh, you may be of help to me! I’m going to Tidal Faction but I don’t know the way!”
Lin Nan was overjoyed to hear this. Chen Xiaobei rejected Elder Jiu’s invitation because he was wanted to visit Lin Xiang! That was all he needed to know that Chen Xiaobei’s feelings for his sister had not changed!
Lin Nan was very happy for his sister.
Speaking of Tidal Faction, Thunder Kirin was supposed to arrange Chen Xiaobei and Lin Nan’s transportation there but because of Focker, Chen Xiaobei did not go with Thunder Kirin’s people.
Chen Xiaobei’s initial plan was to ask Focker to send them there but since Elder Jiu was so eager to do him favours, Chen Xiaobei granted him the chance.
“Tidal Faction? That’s the ancient faction on the ocean, right?” Elder Jiu asked.
Because Tidal Faction was a lower medium-tier ancient faction, Elder Jiu was not too sure.
“Yes! It’s on the Tidal Island not far from here!” Focker replied.
“Alright! The yacht will be ready! I will send you there myself!” said Elder Jiu.
Since the old man was so courteous, Chen Xiaobei couldn’t help but to appreciate his kindness.
……
The yacht left the port.
After a long conversation, Elder Jiu and Chen Xiaobei got to know each other a little better.
Elder Jiu gave Focker a look when Chen Xiaobei was not looking to tell him to take Lin Nan to the deck to play.
The weather was excellent and when Focker mentioned fishing, Lin Nan practically ran out to the deck, leaving only Elder Jiu and Chen Xiaobei in the cabin.
“Whatever Elder Jiu wants to say, please just speak your mind.”
Chen Xiaobei figured out that Elder Jiu sent Lin Nan away because he wanted to discuss something in private.
“I agree, Mr. Chen. Then I won’t beat around the bush! There are no medium-grade Spiritual Stones here on earth! They only exist in high-tier starfields!”
Chen Xiaobei understood what Elder Jiu was insinuating.
“That’s right. I have been to a high-tier starfield!”
“I knew it!” Elder Jiu slapped his own thigh excitedly. “May I know which demigod endorsed your journey to Northern Wilderness Starfield?”
When Elder Jiu saw that Chen Xaiobei knew about Northern Wilderness Starfield, he went on to say whatever he wanted to say.
But Chen Xiaobei shook his head and said, “I’m afraid I cannot disclose that information!”
The Tenshou had initially endorsed Chen Xiaobei’s trip to Northern Wilderness Starfield, but he was later beheaded during the fight that broke out in Atlantis!
So, it did not count. But if he had to name an endorser, then it would be Demonic Fox!
It was because of her special ability that Demonic Crimson Lotus, while battling against the many demigods, tore a rift in space which brought Chen Xiaobei to Northern Wilderness Starfield.
Chen Xiaobei could never talk about this.
The Northern Wilderness Starfield was still searching for the person responsible for Atlantis’ destruction. If Chen Xiaobei let the truth slip, he would be put to death before he even realized it.
“Mr. Chen, please don’t take this the wrong way. I don’t mean anything when I asked this question…” Elder Jiu explained earnestly. “I don’t know if you’ve heard that the demigod we served had a fallout with the South Town Star Temple’s Lu Gang, and was stripped of his referral authority! I just want to ask if your referral could endorse one person from our family to Northern Wilderness Starfield to boost his cultivation? We are willing to pay 30,000 low-grade Spiritual Stone for his service. We’ll even pay Mr. Chen 10,000 low-grade Spiritual Stone!”
Phantom Rain told Chen Xiaobei about this before.
Elder Jiu was earnest and sincere in his request because the Rothschilds have been very distressed over the fact that the demigod they served did not have referral authority!
The answer to why Elder Jiu had humbled himself and desperately tried to please Chen Xiaobie was then uncovered!
It was all for a chance to go to Northern Wilderness Starfield!
Elder Jiu believed that Chen Xiaobei’s relationship with his referral must have been pretty good since he was able to get the endorsement. If Chen Xiaobei was willing to pull some strings, there was a good chance that it would be made possible!
Even if it was just one place, the Rothschilds were willing to pay 40,000 low-grade Spiritual Stones!
It was all-in or nothing for them!
But what Elder Jiu did not know was that Chen Xiaobei did not have any referral.
Chen Xiaobei could travel to and fro the Northern Wilderness Starfield as he wished. In a way, he was his own referral!
40,000 low-grade Spiritual Stones! It would be a waste not to earn it!
“I cannot reveal the identity of my referral! That’s is the most basic courtesy!” Chen Xiaobei said, his tone serious. “but I can pass on your request for you! If my referral agrees to do it, then I’m willing to act as the middleman!”
“Oh! That’s great! That would be really really great!”
Elder Jiu slapped his thigh excitedly like an old bachelor who had finally found a wife to marry.
“When I get back, I will ask Focker to send Mr. Chen the Spiritual Stones!”
Elder Jiu was very eager.
“There’s no need to rush!” Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “I don’t know if my referral would agree to it yet! We’ll talk about the Spiritual Stones some other time!”
Chen Xiaobei was a trespasser in Northern Wilderness Starfield. That would make whoever he brought in a trespasser too!
It would lead to a lot of problems if he told Elder Jiu about this uncertainty!
Chen Xiaobei would have to figure out how to permeate trespassers before he could bring people over.
Luckily, Chen Xiaobei had shared a meal with Dong Zhuo and solidified his identity as the new recruit of the 3rd Regiment. On top of that, Chen Xiaobei had also befriended Dong Xiaowu. If the 3rd Regiment could be rebuilt, then perhaps he could use the names of the missing new recruits as disguise for the trespassers.
Then Chen Xiaobei would be able to bring people over without a worry!
40,000 Spiritual Stones for one person! He would be insanely rich!
Of course, this was a topic for a later time. For the moment, Chen Xiaobei would not be going back to Northern Wilderness Starfield. This would have to be set aside for the time being.
He did not want to let Elder Jiu think he was cheating him of his money. So, Chen Xiaobei chose not to accept the Spiritual Stones just yet.
“Alright!” Elder Jiu nodded. “I will get the Spiritual Stones ready! When I receive the good news from Mr. Chen and I will send Focker over immediately!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded and said, “I can see that you’re earnest, Elder Jiu. I will make sure to pass that on my referral!”
“Alright! Mr. Chen is a valued guest of the Rothschild family!”
Elder Jiu was so happy he could not stop smiling.
…
“We’re here! We’re in Tidal Faction! Brother-in-law! Come and take a look!”
Lin Nan ran into the cabin, shouting animatedly.
