Bank of the Universe Novel - Chapter 172
Chapter 172: 10,000 Years Of Lifepsan
Within the Bank of the Universe, this was the second time that Li Xiandao had gone to find the priest.
Another 30 minutes of sparring and Li Xiandao was still unable to win him. Li Xiandao was no match for Slaying the Heavens at all but the battle really satisfied him.
He had seen through the priest once more.
The priest sighed helplessly when he looked at Li Xiandao leave. Based on Li Xiandao’s current rate of learning, who knew how many more times he could beat him?
….
“There is a guest!” Seven’s voice rang out in Li Xiandao’s ear.
Li Xiandao nodded. “I will change and welcome the guest!”
Strictly speaking, this was his first guest since entering Eternal Land and Li Xiandao hoped that it would be a great start.
He decided to be a cunning merchant.
He would extort many things to make himself rich. Only then could he surprise Seven.
Within the Bank of the Universe’s Trading Hall, Li Xiandao wore a white robe and a gold mask. He seemed cold and mysterious.
To welcome the first guest in Eternal Land, Seven also went to dress up. She was so beautiful that it even stunned Li Xiandao who was already used to looking at her.
When Tian Heng entered the Bank of the Universe and saw Seven, he too was in awe.
But he quickly lowered his head and looked at Li Xiandao instead of Seven.
“What is this place?” Tian Heng asked curiously.
“The Bank of the Universe!” Li Xiandao said calmly.
“What kind of faction is the Bank of the Universe? I was just in God Capital’s jail and now I am here. It is just so mysterious?” Tian Heng said in shock.
Li Xiandao said calmly, “This is Bank of the Universe’s skill. You seem heavily injured as you are covered in wounds. What do you want to trade?”
“Can I trade anything?” Tian Heng asked.
Li Xiandao nodded. “Of course, but you must be able to pay the price.”
Tian Heng looked at himself and was confused. “I don’t have anything on me.”
“You still have yourself, your soul, your cultivation, your life, all your treasures, etc… All of them can be used to trade.” Li Xiandao explained.
“Let me take a look. You have 18,000 years of lifespan to trade.” Li Xiandao added.
“You also want lifespan?” Tian Heng was shocked.
“In truth, as long as it is valuable, we want it. For example God Spirit Meridian, treasure, celestial artifacts, techniques, etc…” Li Xiandao added.
Tian Heng looked at himself closely and said, “I want to exchange for thick spiritual energy and also a chance of comprehension.”
Li Xiandao looked at him with a weird expression and didn’t expect that he would trade for such things.
He wanted spiritual energy and a chance to comprehend the Dao. Was he preparing to use his own strength to break through and then solve his current situation?
Li Xiandao asked, “What is your name?”
“Tian Heng!” Tian Heng stood up with all his strength but his voice was really weak.
Li Xiandao lifted his head and stared at Tian Heng. In his heart, he was thinking about how much of a coincidence it was.
Tian Heng, Tian Yun’s son, Tian Ya’s father. To save his wife and kid he used his own strength to delay the Wen Family main force for 10 years. He fought many and disappeared in the end. Who knew that he would end up appearing here?
“What is it?” Tian Heng saw Li Xiandao’s expression and didn’t know what was wrong.
“Nothing. Before we trade, let me tell you something. I will charge you for it, so do you want to hear it?” Li Xiandao grinned.
Tian Heng was stunned, “What news? What is the price?”
“It’s about your child. I shall charge 10 years of your lifespan.” Li Xiandao thought about it and said.
“Okay, I shall listen.” Tian Heng agreed without hesitation after learning that it was regarding his child.
Li Xiandao nodded, “You have a daughter who is really beautiful and cute. She is also really strong.”
Tian Heng was delighted. His dry hands trembled and he asked emotionally, “I have a daughter?”
“Yes, a little fairy.” Li Xiandao praised. He had a good impression of Tian Ya.
“How do you know that?” Tian Heng was still a little suspicious.
“Before you came, the Bank of the Universe’s last guest was your daughter.” Li Xiandao said.
Tian Heng’s expression changed and he said anxiously, “My daughter came?”
“She is only 10, so why did she come here?”
“What did she exchange?”
“What is her situation now?”
Li Xiandao saw how emotional he was and said, “Sit down and we shall talk.”
Overcome with emotion, Tian Heng sat down right in front of Li Xiandao.
“I know about all of that. If you want to know, then give me 100 years of lifespan!” Li Xiandao raised a finger and his cunning merchant personality was activated.
Tian Heng didn’t hesitate, “I agree.”
Li Xiandao smiled and started to tell Tian Heng about Tian Ya, Tian Yun, and his wife’s poison incident.
After Tian Heng heard it, he said in rage, “Wen Family, that damn Wen Family!”
Li Xiandao saw Tian Heng and said, “Do you still want to trade for what you mentioned?”
“If I want them, what do I need to pay?” Tian Heng asked.
Li Xiandao raised one finger and said, “1,000 years of lifespan!”
Tian Heng frowned and thought about it. “Let me add 3,890 years of lifespan, a total of 5,000 years along with what I said before and for you to help me wipe out the Wen Family!”
The problems he asked were 110 years, along with 1,000 years, and now these 3,890, added up to 5,000.
“Why don’t you do it yourself?” Li Xiandao asked curiously.
If he gave Tian Heng those two things, he would be able to enter the Human Celestial Realm. When that happened, it would be really easy for him to deal with the Wen Family.
Tian Heng shook his head, “My body is too weak, and even if I break through to Human Celestial Realm I need to heal up. The Wen Family is so far away but I am trapped here. I can’t reach them.”
Li Xiandao nodded and continued to listen.
“If I am willing to wait, I can wait for a year and a half to destroy the Wen Family but I can’t afford to wait. The Wen Family must be mad since Wen Ming is dead. My daughter is weak and my father is injured. My wife is also poisoned, so they can’t defend themselves. I have to destroy the Wen Family.” Tian Heng gritted his teeth.
Li Xiandao thought about it and said, “I can do it, but the lifespan you must pay will double to 10,000!”
Tian Heng’s pupils constricted. He looked at Li Xiandao’s ice-cold mask and nodded, “If I give you 10,000, then in addition to wiping out the Wen Family, you must protect my wife, daughter, and father.”
Li Xiandao nodded. “Seven, prepare a contract.”
Seven took out a contract and passed it to Li Xiandao.
Li Xiandao pushed it forwards to Tian Heng.
“Sign it!” Li Xiandao placed a pen in front of Tian Heng and said.
Tian Heng didn’t hesitate and signed his name.
Li Xiandao stood up and walked behind Tian Heng. “Relax, it is just 10,000 years; you still have 8,000.”
“Once you break through to Human Celestial, your lifespan will be extended.” Li Xiandao said slowly and started to absorb Tian Heng’s lifespan.
