Chapter 1070 His Way

"How sure are you?" Lin Mu looked at He Cheng and asked.

"40%." He Cheng's voice was obviously lacking in confidence.

He was no longer as strong and wild as before.

Lin Mu sneered, "You are only 40% sure, and you dare to make such an unreasonable request."

"But since you have come all the way here, you are a guest, so we have to give you this face." Lin Mu changed the subject, "We can agree to your unreasonable request, but you must refine the Tianyang Pill."

"If you fail." Lin Mu stared at He Cheng, his voice cold, "You can forget about your life. You were unreasonable first, so my request is not too much, right?"

He Cheng broke out in a cold sweat and did not dare to answer.

"This is very beneficial to you, why don't you dare to agree?" Lin Mu used his own method to treat him, and persuaded him, "As long as you can succeed in refining, your reputation will definitely be able to rise to a higher level. Xu Jiao and you have practiced together for a thousand years, and your cultivation will also be able to advance by leaps and bounds. If you are not good enough, you can even impact the Mahayana period, standing at the top of the entire Jinxiu world, or even the entire cultivation world."

"I was wrong." He Cheng looked embarrassed and stood up quickly, "I know it is extremely difficult for you to obtain the Tianyuan Fruit, and I really want Xu Jiao to wake up, but I am incompetent and cannot do this job. Please ask someone else."

He Cheng looked at Lin Mu nervously.

He didn't want to wade into this muddy water again.

Tianyang Pill is extremely difficult to refine, and his chance of failure is as high as 60%!

If he fails, he has no doubt that Lin Mu will definitely take action against him.

If he is lucky and works hard to refine successfully, even if Lin Mu really agrees to his request, will he really dare to practice together with Xu Jiao for a thousand years?

In the world of cultivation, the most useless thing is promise.

If Lin Mu turns his face and refuses to admit it, he will be helpless.

Even if Lin Mu really agrees to this, he himself dare not practice dual cultivation with Xu Jiao.

For such a job that has no benefit if it succeeds and will lose his life if it fails, even a fool knows that he should withdraw as soon as possible!

Lin Mu looked at He Cheng with a smile on his face.

It was just as he expected.

He Cheng was scared.

He didn't dare to refine it at all.

His goal was also achieved.

When he heard He Cheng's request, he felt that this person was extremely unreliable.

If the refining failed, he would have nothing to do.

If the refining succeeded, Xu Jiao would have to practice dual cultivation with him for a thousand years.

Such a thing of getting something for nothing, really makes them fools?

He went through a lot of hardships and passed through dangerous places and desperate situations before he arrived at Yin Yang Valley. The cost of the teleportation array alone on the way was extremely expensive, and it took another three years to ripen the Tianyuan Fruit.

He Cheng is so casual, with only a 40% chance of success, he is simply playing with his hard work!

If he succeeds, he can also have Xu Jiao, a very poisonous body, practice with him to enhance his cultivation.

If he fails, he doesn't have to bear any consequences.

Such a good thing, let alone He Cheng, any alchemist will definitely rush to do it!

He made a slight threat, and He Cheng immediately backed down.

Lin Mu just got what he wanted.

If he drove He Cheng away directly, He Cheng might find someone to take revenge.

Now that he wants to leave voluntarily, let him go.

However, for such a scum, he can't get away with it.

"Are you really going to leave?" Lin Mu asked, "Are you sure you don't want to do it?"

"No." He Cheng said hurriedly.

"Well, we promise you, it's your freedom to do it or not." Lin Mu said with a smile.

He Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

A big stone in his heart was put down.

He was about to say goodbye and leave, but Lin Mu changed the subject.

"However, this time you took the initiative to break the contract, so we have to settle accounts with you." Lin Mu stared at He Cheng.

"What accounts?" He Cheng had a bad feeling.

"You are unwilling to refine the Tianyang Pill, which means that all the efforts we have spent on you will be in vain." Lin Mu said simply, "This expense should be borne by you, right? If you leave, we will have to spend time again and find another expert, and Xu Jiao's life span is only a few years. To us, her life is priceless. If you delay for a day, she will lose a little hope of waking up."

He Cheng was sweating profusely.

Lin Mu's words hit his heart.

Every word was like a knife!

"Do you agree with what I said?" Lin Mu stared at He Cheng and asked, "Isn't it that I am being unreasonable with you? What I said is all true."

"Yes!" He Cheng nodded quickly.

What Lin Mu said was indeed true.

But this fact was exaggerated.

He didn't do anything, so why did it seem like all the mistakes were on him now?

But he didn't dare to refute anything.

If there was any conflict with Lin Mu, I'm afraid this matter would not end.

"Well, since you agree with me, we won't make it difficult for you." Lin Mu said with a smile, "You just need to pay ten times the compensation!"

"Ten times the compensation?" He Cheng was shocked.

But when he saw Lin Mu's cold eyes, he had to nod, "I will pay!"

"How much do you want to pay?" He Cheng asked.

He was ready to be ripped off.

"This includes the spiritual stones we spent, the effort and time we wasted, and the time we delayed Xu Jiao. It's almost 2 billion spiritual stones." Lin Mu said seriously.

He Cheng felt extremely painful.

This is 2 billion spiritual stones!

It was not enough, but he nodded and agreed, "I'll give it to you!"

"It would be better if you are willing to give it to me." Lin Mu smiled and said, "I am a kind person and I don't like fighting and killing. Two billion spirit stones, ten times the compensation, is 20 billion. This is your first time dealing with me, I will give you a 10% discount, you only need to give us 18 billion."

He Cheng suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and he almost cursed, "You are obviously trying to trick me!"

"I said, I have always been kind to others, but if someone is my enemy and wants to trick me, then I will pay you back tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold, ten thousandfold!" Lin Mu stared at He Cheng and said, "This time you only paid back tenfold, and I gave you a 10% discount. I have done my best for you. If you are still not satisfied, I don't mind repeating the journey of the destruction of Lingbaomen again."

He Cheng was furious, staring at Lin Mu, but he couldn't say anything.

This person is too cruel!

He is simply eating people without spitting out bones!

"You can disagree." Lin Mu said with a smile, "Then help us refine the Tianyang Pill. If you succeed, Xu Jiao can practice dual cultivation with you for a thousand years, but if you fail, you will die!"

"I'll give you a chance to choose." Lin Mu stared at He Cheng and said, "It's up to you how to choose. I won't force you."

He Cheng actually bullied him, then he would definitely make He Cheng pay a heavy price.

18 billion spirit stones is not a small amount. For late-stage fusion cultivators, only a small number of cultivators can have such wealth.

But He Cheng is definitely among them.

The income of alchemists is extremely huge.

He Cheng is a master of alchemy in Jinxiu Realm. Looking at his despicable and disgusting means this time, it is conceivable that the spirit stones he looted, 18 billion spirit stones are not a problem.

"I'll give you spirit stones!" He Cheng said almost in tears.

Lin Mu glanced at Xu Hong and Xu Qingyun, and the three of them laughed.

Eighteen billion spirit stones are enough to hire an alchemy master who is more powerful than He Cheng!
