Chapter: 2975

He Hongsheng sighed and said, "Yingxue! This time, the Su family's price is really too high for me to refuse. I not only have to consider you and Jia Li, but also the entire He family. Our family is currently in dire straits. We have over a hundred people, with half being elderly women and children, and half being cultivators. Among these one hundred people, there isn't even one who can earn money. Everyone is like an orphan waiting to be fed..."

Recently, our family has been frantically cutting expenses, reducing the living expenses of the elderly and children, and halving the medicinal materials allocated to cultivators. If we keep going like this, it won't take five years for our family's overall strength to lag behind other families by a huge margin. At that time, we won't even be able to retain our seat among the top four families, let alone in the top ten. The legacy left by our ancestors will all be destroyed at my hands..."

He Hongsheng's tone became more agitated as he said, "But now, the Su family is willing to cooperate with us for one year and twenty billion yuan. If we have this twenty billion, our current situation will undergo a thorough transformation, even reaching unprecedented heights. At that time, our elderly can enjoy a comfortable life guarantee, our children can receive comprehensive education guarantees, and more importantly, those young cultivators who are fighting hard to improve themselves will also be able to get immense help. Perhaps five years from now, our He family will become the top-notch martial arts family in the country, reviving our family's glory and waiting for a bright future!"

How Yingxue took a deep breath and said, "Father... all these so-called eight great martial arts families, four great martial arts families, even the largest martial arts family, are just empty titles without any practical significance......"

"What?!" He Hongsheng spoke with a hint of anger, saying, "Yingxue! Our ancestors have invested countless effort to push our He family to the top four, and you're saying these don't mean anything? Is this fair to our ancestors?"

Yingxue spoke sincerely, "Father, before today, I thought just like you that our He family could become one of the top four. This carried deep meaning and was invaluable, but now I've come to realize we're just like a frog at the bottom of a well."

As she said this, Yingxue paused, then continued, "Father, can you believe there are people who claim they can directly connect someone's life force and achieve a state of great completion with just their own strength?"

He Hongsheng spoke casually, "Isn't that just fantasy? Throughout our He family's history, we've had many high-ranking experts, but has anyone ever truly achieved this level of mastery? It's just an ideal state, like someone who can live forever..."

Yingxue sighed, saying, "So that's why I say we're stuck at the bottom of a well. We always think martial arts are incredibly powerful and that our He family is extremely valuable as one of the top four families, but in front of a true expert, even if we combined all our strength, we wouldn't be able to defeat them or block their moves..."

"As I'm saying, Father, I'm not just talking nonsense. Our horizons are too narrow, thinking that martial arts are the ultimate strength - this is a grave mistake. In fact, our He family's martial arts, viewed from someone at a higher realm, might even be inferior to ants......"

"Regarding Little Master Ye, I can't say much over the phone, but I can confirm one thing: Little Master Ye is not someone to be trifled with. Our best way out as the He family is to cooperate with him."

He Hongsheng asked, "What kind of cooperation conditions did Ye Family offer us? Can we get 20 billion like Su Family?"

Yingxue said, "Little Master Ye gave us one billion and some rare cultivation resources that can't be bought for 20 billion."

"A billion?" He Hongsheng snorted. "That's just enough to bribe a beggar! And what are these 20 billion can't-buy cultivation resources? Are they valuable medicinal materials worth more than 20 billion?"

Yingxue confidently said, "That's right! Based on my personal estimate, these medicines are at least worth tens of billions, and maybe even tens of billions wouldn't be enough to buy them!"

He Hongsheng hastily asked, "What kind of medicine are they? Tell me!"

Yingxue said, "It's five extremely effective elixirs."

"What?" He Hongsheng was stunned. "Five elixirs? Are you sure it's not five carriages of medicine?"

Yingxue said sincerely, "I'm absolutely sure - it's indeed five elixirs. These five elixirs have an extremely high effect, beyond imagination!"

He Hongsheng laughed and said, "I really can't imagine what kind of elixir could be worth four billion yuan! Do you know how many rare medicines twenty billion could buy? It's a bit exaggerated to say five carriages are full, but it's indeed possible that one carriage is filled with thousands of tons of precious medicine! This allows us to produce large quantities of Qi-restoring granules and Body-invigorating soup, enough for our young generation in the He family to use at will! Not even a meal would be tight!"

Yingxue shook his head and said, "Even if we do eat these granules as meals, how can that compare to one elixir? Eating it for ten years wouldn't even match up."

He Hongsheng's voice carried a hint of anger as he said, "Yingxue, I know you're not willing to accept the fact that our He family is reuniting with the Su family, but don't deny our ancestors' great achievements just because of personal feelings! Qi-restoring granules and Body-invigorating soup are one of our He family's most important core advantages. Without these two things, how could we possibly connect three channels? How could we establish our family's position?"

Yingxue hurriedly said, "Dad, I'm not just making this up, you'll understand when you see the elixir..."

He Hongsheng completely disbelieved Yingxue's words and sighed, saying, "Yingxue, I've already thought it through. When the Su family pays twenty billion, I'll take out two billion for you as a search fund to find Ruo Li, and your chances of finding him will increase. What do you say?"

Yingxue asked helplessly, "Dad, have you already agreed with Su Anshun?" JrNovels.com
