At this moment, Ye Xiao was overjoyed and excited.
This is the entire Red Abyss World!
The Crimson Abyss is an incredibly resource-rich world!
Now it all belongs to him!
Just thinking about it made Ye Xiao feel very happy.
But at that moment...
Ye Xiao suddenly remembered that what Old Man Black had said at the beginning was "bad news".
Wait, is this good news?
Why did the Old Man Black say it was bad news?
This left Ye Xiao somewhat bewildered and puzzled.
" Old Man Black, what did you mean when you said this was bad news?"
The Old Man Black sneered.
"You've finally realized it."
"I'd like to see how long you're going to stay immersed in your dreamy fairytale."
Faced with the Old Man Black's merciless stinging pain.
Ye Xiao was suddenly pulled back to reality.
"Give!"
Just then, Old Man Black tossed Ye Xiao a Spirit Ring.
Ye Xiao took it in his hand, examined it, and found that it was no different from an ordinary storage ring.
The Old Man Black said, "Inside is the corpse of the Flame Demon King."
"This item proves that you killed the Flame Demon King."
Similarly, you want ten years' ownership of the Red Abyss World.
"You need to submit this to the Human Alliance, and after the Human Alliance reviews it, they will grant you the title of Red Abyss World Lord."
After the Old Man Black finished explaining the process...
Ye Xiao's expression changed slightly.
He finally understood why the Old Man Black had initially said it was bad news.
Because once he hands over the corpse of the Flame Demon King to the Human Alliance...
Doesn't this indirectly mean his identity has been exposed?
At this point, the Old Man Black added another sentence.
"Outside, many companies and organizations have already taken action; they are all investigating your whereabouts and movements."
"What are they going to do?" Ye Xiao asked, looking at the Old Man Black with surprise.
The Old Man Black said, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
"Of course, we live in a society governed by the rule of law, and these people appear to be respectable and important figures, so they would never do something as dirty as murder and robbery."
"These people are looking for you, intending to buy 10 years' worth of ownership of the Red Abyss World from you."
"Especially Primordial Pharmaceuticals and Ten Thousand Artifacts Heavy Industry, they already have a presence in the Red Abyss World. If they can acquire ownership of the Red Abyss World now..."
"Then their business plans and business empire can be fully rolled out."
"Of course, if you don't sell, you can own the Red Abyss World yourself."
" Primordial Pharmaceuticals and Ten Thousand Artifacts Heavy Industry will have to be acquired by you to purchase their existing business operations in the Red Abyss World in order to maintain the status quo."
"Even if they want to expand their business in the future, they'll have to keep buying permissions from you."
At this point, the Old Man Black's lips curled up, and he deliberately made a sarcastic remark.
"So? Are you interested?"
"Don't underestimate this ten-year privilege; it's a goose that lays endless golden eggs!"
"If you capitalize on this opportunity, you'll earn enough money to last a hundred lifetimes!"
Ye Xiao took a deep breath.
He was clear-headed and calm, and was not blinded by these interests.
" Old Man Black, I know, the Red Abyss World is a golden goose for making money."
"But I don't believe those capitalists would actually treat people as human beings."
"When profits reach 10%, people become restless; when profits reach 50%, people take risks; when profits reach 100%, people trample on all human laws; when profits reach 300%, people are even willing to risk the gallows."
Upon hearing this, the Old Man Black's face showed a mixture of surprise and shock.
"Did you come up with these words yourself?"
Ye Xiao shook his head.
"No, this is a quote from a book called Das Kapital."
"Das Kapital? I've never heard of that book. Can I borrow it?"
Ye Xiao looked at the pleading eyes of the Old Man Black.
A helpless expression appeared on his face.
This book is the book from the world he traveled to before.
Where in this world could he be?
So Ye Xiao replied, " Old Man Black, I found this book by chance a while ago, but I can't find it now. I'll show it to you when I find it again."
He made up an excuse on the spot.
The Old Man Black nodded in belief.
at this time.
Ye Xiao stared at the Spirit Ring in his hand.
This contains the wealth of the entire Red Abyss World.
But he couldn't use it.
This feeling is incredibly frustrating.
" Old Man Black, I'm not reconciled!"
Ye Xiao stared at the Old Man Black and said bluntly, "I don't want to sell this thing; I want to own it myself!"
Faced with Ye Xiao's words...
The Old Man Black seemed to have anticipated this.
He laughed heartily, "I knew it! You wouldn't be willing to give up such a huge piece of meat!"
Ye Xiao nodded. "Yes! Even if those big shots, even if the company wants to compete for it, I don't want to give up. At worst, I'll fight them to the death!"
"What a sight of a bloodied head!"
The Old Man Black immediately exclaimed in praise.
"We should fight those capitalists to the death!"
Now it was Ye Xiao's turn to be stunned.
It was clearly him who was unwilling to accept it, so why did Old Man Black seem to be much more agitated than him?
So, Ye Xiao tried asking.
" Old Man Black, do you have a solution?"
A mysterious smile, which had been waiting for him all along, appeared on the Old Man Black's face.
"Have!"
Ye Xiao immediately perked up.
What method?
The Old Man Black swept away the superfluous expression on his face and put on an extremely serious and earnest look.
"Use the agent's method!"
"The premise is that you have to be trustworthy!"
agent?
Ye Xiao immediately understood.
Because he was of low cultivation level, weak in strength, and of little influence.
If he were to gain control of the Red Abyss World, contenders would flock from all directions.
However, if ownership of the Red Abyss World is handed over to an agent.
And this agent, with his high prestige and strength, can naturally keep countless petty people in check.
" Old Man Black, who are you referring to as the agent...?"
The Old Man Black spoke slowly and earnestly.
"One is me, and the other is... the Principal!"
"We are the only two Transcendentalist in the school. If we act as your agents together, we can protect you from most trouble."
After the Old Man Black spoke in that tone.
Ye Xiao felt relieved.
Through this period of time spent with and getting to know Old Man Black.
Although the Old Man Black was eccentric and unpredictable, and his attitude towards him was very bad, with all sorts of teasing and scolding.
However, Ye Xiao knew one thing deep down.
That means the Old Man Black's kindness and goodwill towards him were genuine.
If we say...
Ye Xiao has people he trusts most in this world, and Old Man Black is one of them.
Not to mention, his father was a disciple of Principal Wu Canglan.
There is this relationship here.
Ye Xiao had no reason not to trust Old Man Black and Principal Wu Canglan.
Without hesitation, Ye Xiao nodded immediately.
" Old Man Black! I trust you and the Principal!"
"The agency rights for the Red Abyss World are now entrusted to you!"
