Chapter 673: Chapter 673: Sincerity!
“Cooperation?”
“You and me?”
Xu Qianli couldn’t help but laugh out loud. It was ridiculous that a sworn enemy had come asking to collaborate.
The Holy Daughter said, “I know it’s unlikely that you’ll accept this immediately, but I believe after you hear what I have to say, you might change your mind.”
“I am not interested in listening to your nonsense, so you can save your breath.”
Xu Qianli flatly refused. This woman, looking as enchanting as a fairy and indeed beautiful, was the Holy Daughter from the Qingshan Association—definitely no good merchandise. Believing her would be like helping her count money after she had sold him out.
The Holy Daughter said, “Really don’t want to listen? What if I tell you that I can reveal the secrets of the Qingshan Association—still not interested?”
Xu Qianli fell silent.
The secrets of the Qingshan Association indeed intrigued him, but he couldn’t figure out what this woman’s true intentions were.
The Holy Daughter’s usually cold face suddenly changed, bearing a smile like winter snow, utterly radiant. She approached Xu Qianli with the most charming smile, bent over, and looked into his eyes.
“You must be thinking that I cannot be trusted, that what I say cannot be trusted, that I must have some ulterior motive to seek you out, that I must not be allowed to deceive you, or else you’d be completely taken advantage of.”
“But I need to tell you that I am here with genuine sincerity, really wanting to cooperate with you.”
“Not for any other reason, but because both of us are chosen souls—Chosen Sons selected by heaven. People like us should join hands and cooperate to gain something.”
“Of course, if you don’t trust me, I can show my sincerity.”
“Tell me, how can I make you believe me?”
Coquettish laughter, continuous and relentless. The Holy Daughter’s beautiful face seemed almost magical, even causing Xu Qianli to feel somewhat smitten.
It is undeniable that although she was born into the Qingshan Association and was truly beautiful, her charms were dangerously alluring.
Her previously cold and menacing demeanor had been intriguing enough but witnessing such a sudden transformation to a woman full of smiles and charm, emanating seduction, was especially eye-catching.
However, this only made Xu Qianli even more uncertain about her intentions.
Soon, Xu Qianli’s gaze moved away from the Holy Daughter’s pretty face, landing on her neckline.
The woman was wearing a loose dress which was fine when she stood, but bending over like that revealed too much—a red lace bra, provocatively sensual.
Sensual it was, but she was the most lethal viper, one careless moment and you could be fatally bitten. Caution was needed.
“Alright, stop all this coquettish nonsense here, I’m not interested in this sort of woman!”
“Speak up, what is your real purpose for seeking me out? What do you want me to do?”
Xu Qianli said.
The Holy Daughter said, “You really are unromantic, so dull. That was the first time I smiled at a man like that. Don’t you feel even a little stirred? I don’t believe it unless you are truly a block of wood.”
Xu Qianli said, “Seducing people—you’re still too green. Moreover, my time is precious. I’m not interested in wasting it here—state your purpose quickly, or I’m leaving.”
Seeing Xu Qianli’s unimpressed attitude and her failed seduction, the Holy Daughter couldn’t help rolling her eyes.
Great, she was just casting pearls before swine. This guy was definitely a blockhead.
“Alright, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you—isn’t that enough?”
“Do you know what we, the Azure Dragon Association, have been seeking all this time in Qingshan Town?”
“The Elixir of Eternal Life before was merely an addition; what we actually wanted was the Dragon Vein hidden beneath Qingshan Town!”
“Dragon Vein, as the name implies, resembles a dragon-like network of mountains and rivers, all of which are places where Spiritual Energy congregates.”
“Ancient people believed that burying ancestors in such places could bless their descendants.”
“Additionally, a Dragon Vein has another use—it can enhance one’s fortune!”
“If a family were to receive this enhancement, their future would undoubtedly prosper.”
“If an individual were to receive this blessing, that would be even more incredible; they would surely rise rapidly, becoming a true dragon among men.”
“We, the Qingshan Association, have been tediously searching for this Dragon Vein in Qingshan Town, hoping to seize it for ourselves.”
“Regrettably, up to now, we haven’t got a single clue.”
Xu Qianli listened quietly; this was much like what he had deduced before. Legends say that a dragon lies beneath Qingshan Town, but after all, it’s only a nebulous legend. Just for such a legend, the Qingshan Association has expended so much effort; is it really worth it?
The Holy Daughter said, “You seem not at all surprised. It seems you really knew about this already. Xu Qianli, how about we join forces to seize the Dragon Vein? Both of us are the Chosen Ones, and I am certain that together, we can succeed.”
With her words, the Holy Daughter freely hugged Xu Qianli’s arm, pressing her ample chest tightly against it and coquettishly shaking it a bit.
This woman seems too familiar, Xu Qianli thought, shaking his arm to push her away.
“Stay away from me; people might think we get along if they don’t know any better.”
“Don’t forget, just a while ago, we were fighting each other to the death.”
“As for the Dragon Vein, that kind of elusive thing, I’m not interested. If you want to find it, you better go alone.”
The Holy Daughter gave a self-deprecating laugh and said, “If I could find it alone, would I come to you? I’ve been secretly staying in Qingshan Town this whole time, wandering through every corner, but unfortunately, I’ve found nothing. That’s why I thought of you. Both of us as the Chosen Ones, finding the Dragon Vein surely requires cooperation between two people.”
“I’ll cooperate with you, my foot!”
“If you want a tumble in the sheets, I can cooperate, but finding some Dragon Vein, I have no interest in that!”
Xu Qianli openly refused. Setting aside the matter of the Dragon Vein, speaking of the Holy Daughter, he didn’t trust her at all. He found none of her words credible and had no interest in searching for any Dragon Vein with her.
This woman appears harmless and full of sincerity, but who knows what mischief she harbors.
Xu Qianli had finished his cigarette, crushed the butt, and stood up to dust off his buttocks and walk away.
You keep dreaming about your Dragon Vein; I’m going home to my beauty.
“Stop right there!”
Seeing Xu Qianli about to leave, the Holy Daughter shouted explosively to stop him, looking at him with a complex gaze for a while, bit her lip, and said, “I can agree!”
Agree?
Xu Qianli was momentarily baffled. “Agree to what?”
“You mentioned tumbling in the sheets, right? I can agree to that.”
“As long as you help me seek the Dragon Vein, not just tumbling in the sheets, if you want, I can even bear your children!”
“You probably don’t believe me, right? Well then, I’ll show you my sincerity.”
The Holy Daughter tore at her dress, ripping it off and throwing it aside, then she pulled off her sexy red lace lingerie, revealing her pale, captivating body to Xu Qianli.
“Xu Qianli, however you want it, it’s up to you now.”
