Chapter 17 Invitation from the Association of Beauty
Guan Ya, unfamiliar with both of them, maintained a normal expression, but Zhang Yuanqing was somewhat surprised. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Please let them in."
Since Fu Qingyang had agreed, his refusal would seem deliberately confrontational to his superior. What if Fu Qingyang requested another sparring session?
I've just advanced to Saint level, making a name for myself. It's understandable that An Ni and Bill want to visit me, Zhang Yuanqing thought, silently pulling open the cup to cover the splint on his leg.
The bunny girl bowed and left the room, and soon after, led two foreigners in.
The man had a straight posture, with light brown short hair and deep, calm eyes. His features were three-dimensional, and the fine crow's feet at the corners of his eyes showed a mature man who had experienced the vicissitudes of life.
The woman wore a skirt suit, white shirt, and small blazer, a simple and capable business attire. She didn't have any extra decorations, but she was like the most dazzling gemstone.
Blonde hair and blue eyes, delicate features, and a charming temperament made even women sigh, "What a beauty!"
"Mr. Yuanshi, I heard that you just sparred with Elder Fu, and he broke your leg?" Mr. Bill eagerly went to the bedside to express his condolences.
The bunny girl brought two high-backed chairs for the guests to sit down.
Who told you that? Was it Fu Qingyang, that trash? Zhang Yuanqing thought to himself, haha-ing, "We originally agreed to compete at the same level, but who knew that Elder Fu couldn't beat me and got anxious, so he couldn't help but use Sovereign-level power."
Bill suddenly understood, and glanced at An Ni beside him, secretly surprised.
Fu Qingyang told them: "I accidentally broke his leg in a sparring session with Yuanshi Tianzun, and he's now lying in a guest room downstairs."
But he didn't expect this inside story.
Fu Qingyang at the same level couldn't beat him? An Ni's eyes shone brightly.
Guan Ya frowned beside her, discerning a strong desire for Yuanshi in this woman's micro-expressions.
If it were an ordinary woman, Guan Ya wouldn't care, but the Aiyu (Love and Desire) profession is the fox spirit of the Lingjing Xingzhe world, with unparalleled hooking skills.
A beautiful woman from the Aiyu profession lusting after your soon-to-be boyfriend would make anyone panic.
Guan Ya was a little worried about Yuanshi's willpower. After all, I am a Capricorn. At that time, Mr. Bill said, "I am here on behalf of the Merchant Guild to congratulate Fu Qingyang on his promotion to Sovereign. I didn't expect Mr. Yuanshi to be there as well."
As he spoke, he took out a white card from his pocket and handed it over, saying, "This is a gift from the Merchant Guild, the Supreme White Card. Holders can enjoy a 7.5% discount on materials and props purchased from the guild. With this card, you can participate in auctions held by the Merchant Guild. If you have the opportunity to go abroad, the Merchant Guild can solve your travel and accommodation problems."
"Our guild only issues twenty Supreme Black Cards externally each year."
A 7.5% discount? Saint-level items cost tens of millions at every turn, and a single transaction can save two or three hundred thousand. Zhang Yuanqing eagerly took the card: "Thank you for the Merchant Guild's generosity."
After Zhang Yuanqing took the card, An Ni smiled charmingly and said, "Mr. Yuanshi, I have something to say to you alone."
Mr. Bill stood up, nodding, "You guys chat."
An Ni turned to look at Guan Ya, her azure blue eyes curving into crescents, revealing a sweet smile: "Madam, please give me a few minutes."
Guan Ya looked at that angelic face, her heart swaying inexplicably, feeling a surge of goodwill. She murmured, "Then you guys chat, I won't disturb you."
She was captivated by An Ni's charm, feeling that such an elegant and moving woman was beyond Yuanshi's reach, and her goodwill and trust towards An Ni soared.
Is the charm of the Aiyu profession effective on both men and women? Zhang Yuanqing watched Guan Ya leave, withdrew his gaze, and said, "Miss An Ni, although it's an honor to be alone with a beautiful woman like you, please make it short, otherwise, when my girlfriend reacts later, she will hold a rifle to your head."
"Girlfriend?" A look of surprise flashed across An Ni's pretty face, and then she smiled, "Indeed, you are a rare person, Mr. Yuanshi. I would like to invite you to become a member of our Association of Beauty on behalf of the Association of Beauty. This is the reason why I requested a private conversation with you."
Becoming a member of the Association of Beauty is like the Demon Lord? Sure enough, the Association of Beauty will not let go of any potential Night Wanderer! Zhang Yuanqing appropriately expressed a hint of surprise, saying, "What is a member?"
"You can understand it as an external member or partner of the Association of Beauty. As long as you become a member of the Association of Beauty, you can enjoy the association's channels, including obtaining intelligence, issuing rewards, receiving tasks, interest-free loans, and so on." An Ni explained the benefits of membership: "You can make any request to the Association of Beauty, and the association will try its best to satisfy you. If it cannot be satisfied, it will also find cooperative channels for you. In addition…"
An Ni paused, pulled the high-backed chair to the bedside, charmingly brushed her hair behind her ear, and smiled ambiguously, "Each member will receive the exclusive service of a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You can ask me to do anything in life and business."
Including milking cows? Zhang Yuanqing's mind was filled with the sounds of the Demon Lord and Betty doing *that*.
He banished the fanciful thoughts from his brain and asked rationally, "Then what price do I have to pay?"
An Ni smiled. Being able to ask this shows that Yuanshi Tianzun is not resistant to becoming a member of the association, and he is shrewdly weighing the pros and cons.
The blonde, blue-eyed lady, whose bosom was no less than Guan Ya's, puffed out her chest and smiled: "An annual membership fee of 500,000, and occasionally completing tasks issued by the Association of Beauty. This is not mandatory. If you feel that the task is not suitable or the risk factor is too high, you can refuse. However, you must complete three tasks each year."
Zhang Yuanqing fell into deep thought.
The price is indeed not high. The annual membership fee of 500,000 is more like a token gesture, and although the tasks issued by the Association of Beauty have a quota of three tasks per year, if the tasks issued by the Association of Beauty are too dangerous, it doesn't matter if they are not completed. At worst, he can withdraw from the association.
These are the superficial costs, the real dangerous cost is what? Beauty!
As long as you can't resist the temptation in the process of interacting with the Aiyu profession, and you get milked once, it's equivalent to becoming a vassal of the Association of Beauty.
If you are a genius, not afraid of the Aiyu profession at the same level, such as the Demon Lord, there are still high-level figures such as the president of the Association of Beauty waiting to sleep with you, so they can control you to death.
Of course, from the Demon Lord's point of view, even if he becomes a vassal of the Association of Beauty, it is not a particularly unbearable thing. A vassal does not mean a slave.
As long as you resist being seduced by the Aiyu profession, there are great benefits to becoming a member of the Association of Beauty.
It is equivalent to sharing the association's channels, expanding your connections, and having more options when you encounter trouble, instead of relying solely on the Five Elements Alliance for your life.
In addition, if you want to investigate the past of the Demon Lord, the Association of Beauty is a good breakthrough point.
Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a few seconds and said, "If I agree to become a member of the Association of Beauty, will Miss An Ni be the one to provide exclusive service to me?"
An Ni suppressed her excitement, "Yes!"
This point cannot be changed. She cannot make wedding clothes for other fox spirits in the association.
Zhang Yuanqing said: "Okay, but we have to make three rules."
Before he finished speaking, An Ni interrupted him in confusion: "What does 'make three rules' mean?"
"It means agreeing on some things in advance," Zhang Yuanqing said, seeing her suddenly nod, and continued: "First, our relationship cannot be made public. Second, you can only appear in front of me when I need you. When I don't need you, you can't follow me. Of course, phone calls and messages can be contacted at any time.
"Finally, don't use your charm on me. I have a girlfriend."
An Ni nodded, smiling brightly: "Mr. Yuanshi is really a devoted person. I understand."
She never liked serving people with her beauty in the first place. Beauty is a secret weapon that is only used when necessary. As long as she can develop Yuanshi Tianzun into a member belonging to her, not being able to use her beauty is regrettable, but acceptable.
Most importantly, what she needs now is an opportunity to get to know him slowly. If they spend a long time together, is she still afraid of not being able to sleep with Yuanshi Tianzun? She even has the pig tail prepared.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
An Ni got up and opened the door. Standing outside was a young man with an unruly hairstyle, handsome features, and a gentle temperament. It was Ling Diao.
"Oh, my Miss An Ni!"
"We Chinese have an old saying, 'A day apart feels like three autumns,' and my longing for you seems to have traveled through thousands of years!"
Ling Diao leaned against the door frame in a dashing manner, striking a pose, and said affectionately: "You are the light in my life, and whether I want to or not, I can't leave you. My beloved An Ni, I wonder if I can ask you to have dinner with me tonight?"
While speaking, he glanced at Zhang Yuanqing on the bed almost imperceptibly, as if saying: "Learn from me!"
Beautiful, erotic women of the profession themselves are more licentious, so romantic and greasy lines are preferred by them! Zhang Yuanqing nodded, thinking, Who knew, An Ni frowned, looked back at Yuanshi Tianzun, and when she turned her head, this woman was as cold as ice:
"Mr. Ling Diao, please don't look for me again in the future. I'm afraid Yuanshi will misunderstand."
Ling Diao was stunned there, his cynical smile freezing. This was a little… She… Ah! Zhang Yuanqing was just thinking about how to explain and regain the trust of his life mentor when he heard a burst of "buzzing" electrical noise.
From the fanny pack on the bedside table, a man's affectionate chanting floated out: "Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is howling, heaven and earth are vast~" In the sad music, Ling Diao turned around and left, his back indescribably desolate and lonely.
Jinshan City, corner milk tea shop. Ren Xue Mantou slowly gathered the emotions in his eyes, inconspicuously putting away the look. He seemed like nothing had happened, and he calmly picked up the milk tea and drank it down. The inner drama had already exploded:
"I was scared to death! Kou Beiyue, that treacherous thief, is actually Yuanshi Tianzun's man. No wonder he dared to make such bold claims, saying that Yuanshi Tianzun would not dare to kill him!"
"Strange, if he is Yuanshi Tianzun's man, why didn't he betray me?" I have known him for a while. Is he plotting something?
"Could it be that the target is the chairman behind me?"
"His reward is quite generous. Should I report his whereabouts to the chairman and let him send reinforcements to kill Kou Beiyue and collect the reward?"
"Alas, it's not easy to find a like-minded friend. It's a pity to kill him, but the reward is really tempting, and Kou Beiyue, this kid, seems simple on the surface, but I didn't expect him to be so scheming…"
As thoughts turned, Ren Xue Mantou had already made a decision.
That is to report this matter to Chairman Gu Wang and see how he decides. Kou Beiyue finished his milk tea in one gulp, and sighed:
"It's really damn good! I used to be reluctant to buy milk tea to drink." He pretended so well. Ren Xue Mantou was just as strong.
Although smiling to echo, "Yes, yes, now everyone is Saint level, you can have milk tea as you like."
Fu Jiawan Villa.
Just after sending An Ni away, Guan Ya dragged her rifle into the room, standing by the bed and coldly looking down at Zhang Yuanqing, twitching her nose a few times.
While saying "Sister Guan Ya, calm down," Zhang Yuanqing asked, "What are you smelling?"
"Smelling if there is the smell of Photinia!" Guan Ya's melon-seed face was frosty.
"There is no smell of Photinia here, only the smell of missing you," Zhang Yuanqing said loudly.
"What does the smell of missing me smell like?"
"The smell of Photinia!"
Fu Qingyang stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in the study, watching An Ni and Bill leave. These two foreign Lingjing Xingzhe represent their respective organizations, sending congratulatory gifts for his promotion to Sovereign. It was a pleasure for him to deal with them.
The Association of Beauty is okay, but the Merchant Guild has a lot of business dealings with the Fu family.
Of course, in addition to sending congratulatory gifts, Mr. Bill also brought a message, that is, the relationship between the "Merchant Guild" and the "Dionysus Club" has deteriorated sharply, and large-scale conflicts may occur in the near future.
The Dionysus Club is an overseas evil organization that has had nearly a century of grievances with the Merchant Guild.
The Dionysus Club is the largest gang and chamber of commerce abroad. While collecting protection fees, they also control the business of contraband, alcohol, and other items among Lingjing Xingzhe.
Even the Lingjing Xingzhe of the orderly profession, if they want to buy some spiritually rich medicines and power-enhancing potions, must go through the Dionysus Club.
Until the level of Lingjing Xingzhe became higher and higher, after the Void profession passed through the weak early stage, strong people continued to emerge, and the Merchant Guild rose, gradually replacing the Dionysus Club as the mainstream organization.
With the help of many orderly professions abroad, the Merchant Guild defeated the Dionysus Club.
Seizing the market, it has become the industry that dominates the trade of Lingjing Xingzhe abroad.
In addition, the Merchant Guild has also cleaned up and annexed the Dionysus Club in the real world.
The struggle between the two sides has lasted for a century, with brains splattered.
Recently, because the incompetent president of the Merchant Guild finally agreed to take over the position, the entire Merchant Guild cheered. The Dionysus Club could not sit still.
In recent years, relying on alliances with major orderly organizations, the Merchant Guild has been able to suppress the Dionysus Club.
If the strongest Void profession of the era returns, the situation of the Dionysus Club will become even worse. In order to prevent the return of that president, the Dionysus Club will definitely go to war with the Merchant Guild in the near future. Bill received intelligence from headquarters that the senior elites of the Dionysus Club may go to China to warn that president.
At that time, conflicts may occur. This requires the Five Elements Alliance to worry about it. What Fu Qingyang is most worried about is that the local evil organizations will take the opportunity to plan terrorist activities with the Dionysus Club.
With worry, he left the study, walked through the carpeted corridor, and saw Ling Diao drinking alone in the side hall.
"Your expression tells me that you were rejected by An Ni, but what is the anger and regret hidden in your emotions?" Fu Qingyang stood at the door of the side hall and said indifferently.
Hearing this, Ling Diao gulped down a mouthful of spirits, gritting his teeth and saying, "Teaching an apprentice starves the master. The ancients did not deceive me!"
The next day! Zhang Yuanqing, sitting at the dining table, was not very happy because Ling Diao had blocked him. Without the guidance of his life mentor, he, who lacked love experience, was likely to make mistakes in his interactions with Guan Ya.
Alas, what's the matter? I'll introduce another one to Ling Diao later, such as the Demon Lord. As he thought of these emotions, he drank a mouthful of white porridge, and he casually asked, "Brother, are you coming home for dinner tonight?"
"What are you asking this for?"
Zhang Yuanshu looked at his younger cousin a little strangely. This was not something he would ask.
Swallowing the bun, he looked at his grandmother and said, "I forgot to say, Grandma. I'm not coming home for dinner tonight. There's an operation in the department!"
Grandma nodded. "Remember to be careful. Safety first, work second."
His cousin's bloody disaster is today.
It's good to deal with the case of frequent disappearances of women. If it's done by Lingjing Xingzhe, I can also make a fortune. Zhang Yuanqing said to himself.
ps: I'll update the wrong words first and then correct them.
