Chapter 977: Chapter 913: Di Liuxin’s Value

Di Liuxin was overcome with indescribable terror at this moment.

Imagine someone in front of you asking how much you’re worth, all while wearing a malicious grin, who wouldn’t be afraid?

Han Yu, with a smiling face, was dragging Di Liuxin down towards the ground.

It was an idea he came up with on a whim. After all, Di Liuxin was part of one of the Four Extremes Hall, with enough status and prestige. As for his worth…

Han Yu figured it should be significant.

So!

“I’m planning to trade you for an Inquiry Stone, what do you suggest your worth might be?”

Upon hearing this, Di Liuxin was both ashamed and furious.

What was this?

This was treating him like merchandise to be sold, even asking him to help set the price. Put crudely, it was like selling him, then making him count the money.

Di Liuxin shook his head furiously, and Han Yu’s face darkened instantly.

Such a tough character, he hadn’t seen one in a long time.

Yet when Di Liuxin spoke, it was entirely unexpected.

“You can’t even get one stone.”

Di Liuxin looked utterly miserable and displayed despair.

Han Yu was taken aback, naturally finding it hard to believe.

“You are still the fourth elder of the Four Extremes Hall, don’t underestimate yourself.”

Even if he’s not worth thousands or hundreds of stones, a few hundred could still be acceptable to Han Yu.

Could it be so dire that there wasn’t even one?

“I’ve already been ruined by you, I’m useless to the Celestial Dao Sect, why would the main elders bother to rescue a cripple?”

“Not a shred of sentiment?”

Han Yu frowned deeply.

Di Liuxin sighed heavily and countered with a question.

“Did we show any mercy when we acted against Fifth Brother?”

In name, Mu Zili is their nephew, the old man was their junior, but not just him, none of the others had ever shown mercy to the old man’s family.

Celestial Dao Sect does not operate on sentiment.

And there was an even more crucial point.

Di Liuxin looked at Han Yu with a pitiful expression, “Yama Hall leaked the information that the Heavenly Dao left a fate for you to us, do you think the Celestial Dao Sect would risk aiding the enemy for me?”

It was something impossible to even consider.

If they traded him for an Inquiry Stone, those three would let go without a second thought.

Han Yu’s face turned ashen immediately, remembering that smiling face.

The bastard of the first hall used him and then conveniently sold him!

He gritted his teeth and looked at Di Liuxin, “Does that mean you have no value at all?”

Di Liuxin’s expression changed, unable to respond.

He couldn’t answer, because he knew that he indeed couldn’t give Han Yu what he wanted.

In other words, he had no value, really.

“Kill him! Waste of my time.”

The Artifact Spirit was already eager to swing the West River Slash, thinking it could try for a few more cuts and see what might explode.

“Wait a moment.”

Han Yu quickly stopped him; though this guy was useless to him, that didn’t mean he had no use in the Central Continent.

At this moment, he took out a token from his Sea of Consciousness and spoke into it.

“Quan, can you hear me?”

The Self-Improvement Sect’s tokens were now widely used, and it’s estimated that cousin Mo Xiuwen never thought his casual trick would be refined to this extent by himself.

Nowadays, not just Quan Xiaotong treats it as a treasure, even Mu Zili is rather fond of it, and the cultivators stationed outside the small workshop, under Quan Xiaotong’s original plan, have been rearranged by Mu Zili.

They even selected a few sect leader-level experts from the Central Continent to specifically protect it.

Soon, a voice quickly came through from the other side of the token.

Quan Xiaotong’s voice came through slowly, with a hint of tension, “Has something happened?”

After all, given Han Yu’s character, it’s mostly others who contact him, and he only reaches out to the Central Continent if something happened.

This bad habit can truly scare people at times.

Afraid of causing a mess, Han Yu quickly explained.

After a brief recount, the other side of the token fell deathly silent.

One of the Four Extremes Hall being crippled by Han Yu?!

It’s not that he couldn’t accept it, but Han Yu’s leaps were becoming increasingly terrifying.

It was indeed frightful.

Han Yu couldn’t help but ask again.

“Is this guy of any use to you guys? If he is, I’ll keep him; if not, I’ll chop him up.”

Di Liuxin turned pale with fear, retreating several steps, wanting to flee, but reminded that he had been crippled and there was an Artifact Spirit eyeing him with a drawn blade.

For a moment, he was utterly despairing.

Unable to wait for a response from the token, he began to scream hysterically.

“Fifth Brother, are you there? Are you there, save me…”

The originally silent token suddenly erupted with curses, unexpected that the old man was indeed with Quan Xiaotong.

“Now you’re afraid of dying? When you sent people to kill my disciples and put the blame on me, did you not consider this day would come…”

The old man seemed extremely furious, cursing incessantly.

The Artifact Spirit, seeing this, was already ready to act, still wanting to see what might explode.

Di Liuxin also thought he was doomed, eyes shut in despair awaiting death.

But unexpectedly, the tone from the token suddenly shifted.

“Bring him back; killing him is too cheap. This idiot has always been dim-witted; there are things he can’t comprehend, but he knows them, and may not know his own worth.”

The old man’s voice came through slowly.

And Quan Xiaotong also spoke, “Then I’ll send someone over to get him.”

“No need, I still have to make a trip back.”

Han Yu interrupted Quan Xiaotong, eager to test the pill on the Artifact Spirit. If it worked, the layout of the Central Continent could truly change.

After speaking, Han Yu remembered another matter and spoke again into the token.

“Who wants the rules? Come to me quickly, there’s a rule here.”

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a cautious voice came from the token.

“Can I go?”

The voice was Shi Xiu’s.

As someone who just joined the Central Continent, she hadn’t had a chance to contribute, let alone deliver any service token.

The only notable instance was when she didn’t abandon Xia Wuyou and the others when they were besieged by the Celestial Dao Sect’s little elder.

“Sure! Whoever gets here first, it’s theirs.”

Han Yu’s generosity was clearly unexpected for Shi Xiu, who expressed immense joy quickly from the other side, “Then my fellow colleagues, no need to make the trip, I’m the closest.”

Indeed, shortly after speaking, a stone bridge appeared, spanning the void.

A white mist emerged on the bridge, and from it emerged Hun Bugui and Shi Xiu.

Hun Bugui’s expression was peculiar; when Shi Xiu was about to speak, he initially intended to stop her.

Because he always felt it was extremely inappropriate for Shi Xiu to say this.

After all, they had only just joined the Central Continent and hadn’t made any significant contributions.

To put it bluntly, even if there were benefits, it would be challenging for them to receive any.

But what he didn’t expect was that not only was Han Yu incredibly generous, but the Central Continent was also uncharacteristically giving.

No one opposed it.

Even Han Yu casually gave it.

This was a rule, not cabbage!

Even if they stayed in Yama Hall, they might not be able to obtain such a thing.

But here, it was given just like that?

Shi Xiu was eager to pull him along towards the scene eagerly.

Approaching, both glanced at the ashen-faced Di Liuxin with strange looks, unsure whether to face this once-mighty being with pity or fear.

“You handle the rules first, I’ll wait for you.”

Han Yu urged Shi Xiu.

Shi Xiu’s face lit up with joy, already jubilant.

“Just stay behind a bit, the rules are many, and we might not be able to handle them all. No need to worry about not getting any, the concern is how we proceed to seize more.”

Han Yu said to Hun Bugui, who was overjoyed at the mention of “us,” clearly treating him as one of his own.

With Han Yu’s generosity, being truly considered one of them meant Hun Bugui had no worries regarding the rules.

Shi Xiu’s situation seemed no different from Mu Zili and the others. This scene left Di Liuxin flabbergasted, even forgetting his fear, he loudly exclaimed.

“Why isn’t she being repelled by the rules?”

He could clearly see that from the moment Shi Xiu touched the rule, she showed no signs of being dragged away by the soul.
