You Call This Free, Ma Liang?
Everyone is now offering exorbitant prices in hopes of finding Taiyin Evil Spirits to help them learn various martial arts techniques!
With no response from the Vast Heaven Holy Land, prices from all sides continued to rise!
Chu Xinghe was helpless in the face of this situation...
What the hell? You want me Chu Xinghe, to come up with an idea? How the hell am I supposed to come up with an idea?
The abilities of the Taiyin Evil Spirits junior brothers are undeniable... Do you know just how overpowered these abilities are?
Without exaggeration, if the power of the Taiyin Evil Spirits were allowed outside, believe me, Taiyin Evil Spirits extermination speed would be even faster than in the past!
After all, this ability is truly too overpowered... Sometimes, strong abilities can allow you to rise to power, but sometimes, if the ability is too overpowered, it's very likely that you'll be sent to your death!
Everyone understands the saying, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime"...
However, the problem now is that all the Taiyin Evil Spirits are disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, so this possibility is completely non-existent. And since this possibility is completely non-existent, there is only one possibility left, which is pure profit!
This is an unchangeable fact!
And it's impossible to suppress... Look, I haven't responded to the outside world for the past few days, but not only do they not intend to give up, they've also been raising prices frequently. Now everyone is practically lining up their resources in the Haotian Mountain Range, waiting for the Vast Heaven Holy Land's response.
Therefore, it's definitely impossible to suppress it!
After much deliberation, Chu Xinghe gritted his teeth and stamped his foot... If this really doesn't work, we'll just give it to you for free!
I, Chu Xinghe, admit it, I'm truly out of ideas this time. If I had any other options, I certainly wouldn't have offered them for free, right?
But just as Chu Xinghe uttered the word "free," that bastard Ma Liang jumped out!
"Free is great! Senior Brother Xinghe's move was truly brilliant! Senior Brother Xinghe is right, Elder, we'll take this one for free! Elder, leave it to me, this 'free' part is my Ma Liang territory!"
Chu Xinghe was speechless...
The Grand Elder looked relieved...
The Grand Elder said that in the past, when you heard Xinghe say that something was free, you would have thought it was outrageous.
But now, the Grand Elder says that he feels completely at ease when he hears the word "free".
After all, Ma Liang, the only permanent low-level outer disciple of our Vast Heaven Holy Land, is known as the King of Freebies...
When it comes to offering things for free, our Ma Liang has a unique knack for it.
Look at things now. When Ma Liang represents Vast Heaven Holy Land in business negotiations, no matter how high the price Ma Liang asks, the other party is usually unfazed. But once Ma Liang suggests that Vast Heaven Holy Land could choose to do it for free, the other party is so scared they wet their pants!
What the heck? You're saying there's nothing wrong with it being free?
Whether other people's freebies are good or not, we don't know, but the moment Ma Liang says "free," you know this hand is definitely not just about bleeding money; Ma Liang really wants to rip you out!
So when Ma Liang heard the word "free," his eyes lit up...
If you're talking about negotiating prices, Ma Liang says that's really not Ma Liang forte. After all, negotiating prices is something his Senior Brother Feng Fei is good at.
But if you're talking about freebies, Ma Liang says that's in Ma Liang comfort zone...
My specialty, Ma Liang, is giving things away for free...
Therefore, without any hesitation, the Grand Elder directly entrusted Ma Liang with handling the cooperation between the Taiyin Evil Spirits and various parties... just as Xinghe said, it would be free!
Seeing Ma Liang's spirited appearance, Chu Xinghe grabbed Ma Liang!
"Junior Brother Ma Liang, please tell Senior Brother Xinghe your plan in detail. If you don't say anything, Senior Brother Xinghe will be scared..."
Chu Xinghe's eyes are brimming with tears right now...
Now... the Misfortune Compass has left me Chu Xinghe, with absolutely no way out. Before, I Chu Xinghe, was the one who blocked the Misfortune Compass from both ends...
Now the Doom Misfortune Compass is blocking Chu Xinghe from both ends!
Look at this! If I had chosen not to give it away for free, everyone would have been dumping all sorts of resources into our Vast Heaven Holy Land today...
And now that I've offered it for free, that bastard Ma Liang has jumped out and started manipulating the game... Tell me, how the hell do we break this deadlock?
"Senior Brother Xinghe, this time Ma Liang really didn't use any tricks, I played completely free... because you're right, Senior Brother Xinghe... only by playing for free can we gain more!"
Chu Xinghe: "???"
Chu Xinghe was completely dumbfounded... What Ma Liang... It's true that I said "free," but when the hell did I say that you can get more by getting things for free...? Isn't it a bit too outrageous for you to slander me to my face like this?
But soon, Chu Xinghe found out exactly how Ma Liang was going to operate this time.
Ma Liang said that Senior Brother Xinghe was right to say it was free. If we really charged for this, we would get a lot of resources, but to be honest, given the current resource reserves of our Vast Heaven Holy Land, these meager rewards would be unsatisfying, not only for me, Ma Liang, but even for my Gui Li.
My Gui Li brother Guili would probably say something like, "This is only a few days' work... and it's already over?"
This is so boring!
But if we choose to go for free, then it's a completely different story... If we choose to go for free this time, it seems like we won't get any resources, but don't forget... No matter who you are, if you want to learn various techniques and supernatural abilities from our Taiyin Evil Spirits junior brothers, shouldn't you first pass on these techniques and Taiyin Evil Spirits abilities to them?
If we charge a fee, regardless of whose cultivation method it is, even if our Taiyin Evil Spirits junior brother learns someone else's technique, he cannot pass it on to the disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
After all, this involves a matter of morality. People are paying you to help them with their cultivation techniques, and you accept their money and then pass on the techniques to the disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Wouldn't you say that's a bit unethical?
Since they've already paid for it, no matter how powerful their technique is, you absolutely cannot replicate it. Otherwise, what about the reputation of the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
But now, according to Senior Brother Xinghe... we'll do it for free, we won't ask for a single penny, we'll just help everyone directly...
We, the Vast Heaven Holy Land, have been helping you for free. Does that mean we're friends?
Shouldn't friends share good things with each other?
So, after you acquire your techniques and have them passed on to your disciples by our Taiyin Evil Spirits junior brother, isn't it perfectly reasonable for our disciples to also want to learn a thing or two?
After all, our Vast Heaven Holy Land didn't ask for a single penny from you; we were helping out entirely out of friendship. We offered our friendship, so aren't we true friends?
Shouldn't close friends encourage, learn from, and grow together?
Of course, our Vast Heaven Holy Land will not take advantage of you for no reason. We will clearly tell you what we will do... If you are friends with our Vast Heaven Holy Land and are willing to make progress together, then you are welcome, and we can help you at any time.
But if they don't want to, we didn't force them...
So Ma Liang said that Senior Brother Xinghe's free win this time was truly brutal...
Although we cannot obtain any resources, we can obtain countless peerless secret techniques... These techniques may not be of much use for the time being, but if they remain in our Vast Heaven Holy Land, there will eventually be disciples who are suitable to learn them. The resources for these techniques cannot be obtained through ordinary means.
You can exchange Crimson Crystals for Nine-Colored Spirit Stones, or other spirit stones, but you might not be able to buy various cultivation techniques with Crimson Crystals!
Those truly unique skills are not something that can be easily sold to outsiders, right?
So this is a golden opportunity! With the help of my junior brother Taiyin Evil Spirits and senior Senior Brother Xinghe's free strategies, how many peerless cultivation techniques will my Vast Heaven Holy Land acquire...?
The Grand Elder nodded with satisfaction after listening...
Chu Xinghe remained speechless and indifferent after hearing this...
As expected, Ma Liang is the absolute king of the free-to-play world... I, Chu Xinghe, am not even worthy to shine Ma Liang's shoes in the free-to-play arena...
I, Chu Xinghe, wanted to give it away for free simply to earn less resources, but the moment I mentioned "free, "Ma Liang's brain went into overdrive... How am I supposed to fix this?
Chu Xinghe said, "Whatever... I'll take this round, okay?"
Well... lately, I, Chu Xinghe, have been a bit withdrawn... no... I've been thinking about going into seclusion... so please don't let me, Chu Xinghe, know what happens next. The ninth floor of the Technique Repository Tower is my final resting place...
So, Chu Xinghe went into seclusion for the rest of the time...
Ma Liang immediately spread the word that he would be helping all parties free of charge.
Good heavens, when everyone heard Ma Liang offer to give it away for free without warning, they were all terrified!
Zheng Yu said, "Ma Liang... we're friends, aren't we? If you want more money, just name your price. Killing someone is one thing, but there's no need to threaten us with something as terrifying as 'free' over a mere disagreement."
In response, Hua Xichen said, "Ma Liang... there should be a bottom line... If you asked us to increase the price tenfold or a hundredfold, we wouldn't object, but you're offering it for free without warning. Are you really trying to kill us all?"
What do you mean it's free...? We're not worried at all when other people say it's free, but if you, Ma Liang, say it's free, we're in deep trouble!
Faced with various opinions, Ma Liang was teary-eyed and adorable...
Ma Liang said, "What are you all talking about here? Do you think I, Ma Liang, am that kind of person?"
Everyone nodded in unison and said decisively, "Yes!"
"Would I, Ma Liang, scheme against you?"
Everyone nodded in unison and said decisively, "Yes!"
"Even Ma Liang has a sense of shame, okay?"
Everyone nodded in unison and said decisively, "No!"
Faced with people's stereotypes about him, Ma Liang said, "Sometimes you just can't be too kind. I, Ma Liang, am too kind, so they always have all sorts of misunderstandings about me."
Seeing the reactions of the various forces on the Three Continents, the Evil Lords from the Evil Shadow Continent were all dumbfounded...
The White Spirit Evil Lord asks: Do you Three Continents have some kind of unique way of communicating?
Ma Liang said, "Isn't it a good thing to give things away for free?"
When we in the Evil Shadow Continent heard Ma Liang say it was free, we were all laughing our heads off...
Why do you all look so panicked?
Isn't this free just letting us get something for free?
Just as many Evil Lords were thinking about getting this for free, Ma Liang explained the details of the free offer.
As Ma Liang explained, the White Spirit Evil Lord went offline!
The White Spirit Evil Lord is saying, "You guys at Vast Heaven Holy Land call this free?"
I thought "free" meant I could get everything from Vast Heaven Holy Land for free, but it turns out Vast Heaven Holy Land's "free" means you want to take everything from us for free?
