You can forge this Miraculous Item; once you forge it, it will remain silent.

Jing Yuan always felt that the Xianzhou Alliance's budget for next year might be shockingly low.

Why don't we ask Chen Li if we can use the Alliance Omen to pay off the debt?

Tragic, the Xianzhou Alliance is about to be hollowed out.

Moreover, compared to the Xianzhou natives and Foxians, the Dragon race is probably the most miserable, because they want to use the Moe Ying Body to solve the Dragon Madness, and at the same time want to increase the number of Dragon race.

He has to pay twice.

However, the Dragon race cannot resist the temptation to transform other life forms into Dragon race, just as the Xianzhou natives cannot resist the temptation of the [Moe Ying Body].

"Besides the get-out-of-jail-free card, do you have any other requests?" Jing Yuan continued to ask.

"Food. I want to eat everything, edible and inedible, as long as it's not dirty. Oh, and could I take a bite of the Abundance miracles from your different Xianzhou?"

"Don't even mention taking a bite, I'd give it to you for free."

"Real?"

"The premise is that you can guarantee that you can take these Abundance ruins without affecting the overall Xianzhou. For example, Ambrosial Arbor has already become one with the Xianzhou."

"I'll think about it some more..."

Miraculous Item can solve 100% of the problems, but Miraculous Item come at a cost.

"I roughly understand your request. I will bring it up when I apply for the certificate for this Miraculous Item. However, since you are unwilling to let the Miraculous Item leave you before the deal is finalized, other high-ranking members of the Xianzhou Alliance may come to the Luofu Xianzhou to verify your Miraculous Item," Jing Yuan said.

Jing Yuan estimated that there were two most likely candidates to come: one was General Huai Yan, who was extremely old, and the other was General Feixiao, Foxians from the Yaoging Xianzhou.

Perhaps another High Elder from another Xianzhou will arrive.

Jing Yuan has verified that Moe Ying Body can work on the Xianzhou natives, but whether it can work on the Dragon race and the Foxians requires verification by someone of sufficient importance.

General Huai Yan? He might have been sent here simply because he's too old, to experience things firsthand and clear out some burdens.

"No problem. But remember to have them come secretly. I need to fight Phantylia, I really need to fight Phantylia. Don't scare Phantylia so much that he won't dare to come to the Xianzhou," Chen Li reminded him.

Chen Li had already made a grand promise to the Blood Sin Spirit of the Galaxy Rangers, Chen Li couldn't afford not to fulfill it.

"Alright. Actually, among the Great Extinguisher, Phantylia is one of the most difficult to deal Great Extinguisher because she never shows herself on her own initiative. This time may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Although I think Phantylia might also come in disguise this time." Jing Yuan said with some worry.

The Great Extinguisher Phantylia, Huanlong, is fond of the self-destruction of mortals and is keen on the destruction of the "spirit." By instigating conflicts of faith within planets, he undermines the spiritual pillars of the planets, promotes the collapse of trust within civilizations, and causes people to completely abandon hope.

You can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.

Since the Great Extinguisher has already set his sights on the Xianzhou, there's no point in trying to escape; it's better to take the initiative and attack.

"I will prepare a suitable pet collar for Phantylia." Chen Li gave a thumbs up.

Phantylia could escape, then she must be this (thumbs up. jpg).

Even knowing that Phantylia was coming to the Xianzhou, Chen Li still managed to let her escape. Chen Li is like this (thumbs up).

"Then I'll hang up now. Goodbye." Jing Yuan pretended not to have heard what Chen Li said, said goodbye, and went to deal with his ever-piling official duties.

Jing Yuan feels like he's in amazing shape right now! Absolutely amazing!

"Oh, right, I suddenly thought of a question that I haven't had a chance to ask Jing Yuan yet." Chen Li turned to look at Baiheng.

"What's the problem?"

"What If I don't want the money from the Xianzhou, but instead borrow from Xianzhou —borrowing a sum of money that would require mortgaging the entire Xianzhou Alliance —and then use that money to buy the Xianzhou... do I still need to repay the money?"

"Huh? Wait a minute, let me think... The wealth that can only be raised by mortgaging the entire Xianzhou Alliance means that this wealth can buy the Xianzhou Alliance."

"Paying back debts is a matter of course; if you borrow money, you must repay it."

"But after you bought the Xianzhou, the Xianzhou Alliance belongs to you, so why should you pay back the money..."

Baiheng pondered Chen Li's question, counting on his fingers as he did so.

Baiheng's head gradually heated up...

Chen Li nodded and left, satisfied.

You dare say I'm morally corrupt!

Baiheng just came back to life, and his mind isn't quite right yet, and you're still bullying him... Your character is truly despicable! Go buy Baiheng some melon seeds!

"... You didn't let her off the hook either."

Chapter 214 Fu Xuan: What does it mean to discuss with the Erudition One how to buy the Xianzhou Alliance? (6k)

"Qingque, you mean Haruhi Suzumiya originally wanted to learn divination from you, right?"

"Yeah, so what? Chen Li, you know me. Even though I slack off every day, I still have some skills. I'm more than capable of teaching Haruhi Suzumiya divination." Qingque said with considerable confidence.

This is the source of Qingque's confidence in catching fish.

You can pretend to be a food vendor, but you can't actually be a food vendor.

As the most outstanding diviner of the Tai Bu Division, who even made Fu Xuan doubt whether he could escape Fu Xuan's divination, Qingque was indeed quite skilled.

"... But you were provoked by my challenge because of Fu Xuan, and Fu Xuan called you to prepare to adjust the Array of Universal Observation, so you didn't have time to teach Haruhi Suzumiya divination, right?"

"That's right, and it's such a shame that I can't play cards with Haruhi Suzumiya anymore. It's all your fault."

"But you also told Chunri that if Fu Xuan had some free time and stopped using the Array of Universal Observation, you would have time to teach her divination, right?" Chen Li asked again.

"Yes, but the Great Augur was just summoned by the General and we don't know what she was talking about. She won't be back for a while, so Great Augur asked me to wait for her here. It seems I won't have time to teach Haruhi Suzumiya divination this morning." Qingque nodded.

"... Great Augur, you did a great job!" Chen Li slammed his fist into his palm and began to praise Fu Xuan.

"What's so great about this? It's so boring waiting here all the time," Qingque complained to Chen Li via video call.

"It's all fate's choice... You're destined not to teach Haruhi Suzumiya divination today," Chen Li said, shaking his head.

Chen Li still admired his decision to immediately use the Joy Dice to buff Haruhi Suzumiya after sending her to the Xianzhou; otherwise...

What If Haruhi Suzumiya were to learn divination from Qingque, and Qingque promised to teach her everything, Haruhi Suzumiya him, she might actually be able to learn divination in a very short time.

What If Haruhi Suzumiya really learned divination, and then suddenly had the whimsical idea of divining the success rate of something she did, or even the whimsical idea of divining whether she could destroy the Xianzhou with a single punch...?

This might be a bit of an exaggeration, since it's in another world and Haruhi Suzumiya's ability to make her wishes come true is limited, but she could probably blow up Tai Bu Division with one punch.

What If Haruhi Suzumiya saw that she could succeed, and really wanted to try it, then...

That's when things get interesting.

"Thank you for your hard work." Chen Li sighed.

"It's not hard work," Qingque shook her head.

"I wasn't talking to you," Chen Li said, raising the Joy Dice in his hand.

Playing the Joy Dice is really too tiring.

Chen Li originally thought that every time he used the Joy Dice to help Haruhi Suzumiya get a buff, he would roll a Great Failure, which was the dice making things difficult for itself. He didn't expect that it had really done its best.

Seriously, if you're under a lot of pressure, just say so.

Haki Dice, you're willing to give it your all and bear a heavy burden without uttering a sound?

[Joy Dice:...]

Whether the Joy Dice told Chen Li that he was under a lot of pressure was unclear to the Pixie, but the Pixie felt it was necessary to speak up for the Joy Dice: If you want to know, then go ahead and "ask"! If you don't "ask," how can I tell you?

Moreover, if the Joy Dice actually speaks, you'll be the one who gets angry.

However, the Pixie felt that the Joy Dice might just be trying to make things difficult for Chen Li, since Haruhi Suzumiya's status was a bit too high, but deceiving Haruhi Suzumiya was very easy.

"Forget it, let's just consider it an offering made to the turtle in the wishing well after making a wish. Equilibrium truly exists in all things." Chen Li quickly came to a conclusion.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm setting up an online game called 'Emperor's Jade Cards Game,' do you want to join?" Qingque asked Chen Li.

Qingque is making a video call to Chen Li now because Chen Li asked Qingque to report Fu Xuan's situation to Chen Li in real time.

"No, go play by yourself. Oh, by the way, you don't need to use the 100 Starstones in the red envelope I just sent you to strengthen the Array of Universal Observation. Keep it for yourself," Chen Li said.

"We're like family, why would I need to pay you for something so small?" Although Qingque said this, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

"Consider it compensation for the day you were made to stand as punishment."

"Alright, but why not give the Starstones to Array of Universal Observation instead? Aren't you going to give the Great Augur a little shock in terms of connections?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the effect of this 'Array of Universal Observation' might exceed your expectations—it might actually be able to observe some aspects of my situation. However, the results might be somewhat subtle," Chen Li said.

Moreover, Chen Li wanted to watch Fu Xuan's antics in order to quickly replenish his Joy Points, but when Xianzhou saw Qingque being punished to stand for a day, Chen Li had already gotten his pleasure.

Of course, no one can ever complain about having too much fun.

"Subtle?"

"Hmm, subtle."

Because... the Joy Dice.

Qingque had introduced the Array of Universal Observation to Chen Li, saying that regardless of the changes in the Heavenly Principles or the metabolism of humankind, it could answer any question as long as there was sufficient information.

It's like a computer that's both scientific and mystical.

Science because it sounds like a supercomputer.

Metaphysics is because its principles were sought from the Erudition.

Moreover, Fu Xuan's Dharma Eye can indeed be used to foresee the future.

Fu Xuan had some accurate information about Chen Li, not much, but perhaps enough.

Chen Li originally planned to give Qingque some Starstones to throw into the Array of Universal Observation strengthen it, and then give Fu Xuan a little divination surprise.

But it seems that it's no longer necessary.

The Joy Dice will be used.

Chen Li did not forget the description of the Joy Dice: When the number is greater than 10, you will successfully resolve the current crisis, but the process may become very absurd or Elation.

Experiments have shown that this probability actually means there is a very high probability.

In order to prevent Qingque from teaching Haruhi Suzumiya divination, Qingque inevitably had to stand there as punishment for a whole day.

Fu Xuan wouldn't have let Qingque stand next to the Array of Universal Observation for no reason, so Fu Xuan probably used the Array of Universal Observation to perform divination once and then went to do other things, returning to perform divination after he finished.

During this process, Fu Xuan should be able to obtain some divination results, some that seem somewhat plausible but are ultimately unreliable, allowing Fu Xuan to continue using the Array of Universal Observation for divination...

"Every bite and every sip is preordained. Qingque, obtaining these 100 Starstones is your destiny, and standing as punishment by the Array of Universal Observation for a day is also your destiny," Chen Li said to Qingque.

"Why?"

Because you want to teach Haruhi Suzumiya fortune telling!

However, Chen Li did not intend to say it outright, because the more people who knew that Haruhi Suzumiya was the turtle in the wishing well, the more trouble it would be to keep it a secret.

Perhaps Chen Li leaving a challenge letter for Fu Xuan was also part of the Joy Dice plan.

Yeah, it's all the fault of the Joy Dice!

I wonder if Fu Xuan will believe this explanation when I try to explain it to Fu Xuan later.

"Too cruel! Too brutal!" Little Herta appeared beside Chen Li, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

"What's too cruel? Too brutal?" Chen Li asked, puzzled.

"Najenda is too cruel."

"Najenda?"

"Chen Li, you left after the Robin finished singing, so you may not know about the several extremely brutal decrees issued by Najenda after announcing the empire's rebirth."

"What's going on?" Chen Li asked, puzzled.

What laws could make the Little Herta feel so cruel?

Najenda doesn't seem like that kind of person.

"Najenda got some orders from aliens through Screwllum, you know?"

"I do know that..."

Help someone to the very end, and see them through to the end.
