Chapter 1616 - 923: Zhang Yu’s Dilemma

Gu Qingya hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lord Zhang, don’t misunderstand. Someone just wants to know where you plan to select your law point, but absolutely does not intend to interfere. At most, they might offer a slight suggestion, and it’s completely fine if you don’t agree."

"It’s purely for the sect’s consideration. Indeed, choosing the Lower Realm has the least impact, and choosing the first layer results in the lowest loss. This allows the development of laws to be promoted with minimal impact on everyone’s earning and cultivation..."

Zhang Yu waved his hand and said, "Mr. Gu, there’s no need to say more; I’m still considering it..."

After seeing Gu Qingya off, over the next few days... one by one, the Sect Affairs Officers Zhang Yu knew in the sect came to act as spokesmen.

And within these seemingly polite and courteous actions, Zhang Yu felt a hint of pressure.

So when the seventh day arrived, Zhang Yu looked at the visitor before him and directly said, "Are you showing me your connections and power?"

At this moment, standing in front of Zhang Yu was not any of the Sect Affairs Officers he had encountered before, but a senior Void Refining Cultivator of the Sixth Level.

The person named Si Shian was precisely the creator of the "Four-hour Work Law."

Although Si Shian was a seasoned Void Refining Cultivator of Level 6, Zhang Yu knew he was certainly not the mastermind but merely a spokesperson sent by those in power behind the scenes.

Zhang Yu still remembered that the so-called Four-hour Work System was proposed by the Full-time Immortal of the Wanfa Sect, so it seemed Si Shian must be a cultivator of the Full-time Immortal faction.

Upon hearing Zhang Yu’s question, Si Shian smiled slightly and said, "Younger Brother Zhang, you’ve overthought it. We’re just concerned about causing unnecessary conflicts, so we’ve asked someone to convey a message to you in advance."

As he spoke, Si Shian stretched out his hand, and the surging Immortal Coin count was already flowing in his palm.

"Younger Brother Zhang, I know you’ve incurred a huge debt during the law establishment testing phase, infected with debt poison, which has temporarily trapped you here, using the testing environment to suppress the debt poison."

"I’m here today to lend a helping hand and assist you in suppressing the debt poison."

Watching the surging Immortal Coin count seemingly about to rush over yet suddenly infused into his own body by Si Shian’s palm, Zhang Yu flashed several hundred meters away, coldly saying, "Thank you for your concern, but I will find a way to handle this debt myself."

Si Shian sighed helplessly, then sincerely said, "Younger Brother Zhang, why reject people from a thousand miles away? Debt is the world’s greatest poison and must be dealt with carefully."

"Especially this millennial calculation debt poison, which follows like a shadow, gnaws at your soul. The longer it’s dragged, the interest skyrockets exponentially. If prolonged further, the debt poison deepens, and it may be beyond saving."

"If you are willing today, I can not only suppress this poison for free but also offer you a gift..."

As he spoke, a window popped up before Zhang Yu, revealing a lifetime free membership in the Law Realm Calculation Pool, providing virtually Zhang Yu’s current cultivation level with a millennial calculation quota annually.

Just by lightly choosing to agree, Zhang Yu could receive this gift and enter a state of profound calculation power.

However, watching this scene, Zhang Yu’s expression remained unmoved, showing no interest in agreeing to this gift.

After all, he knew without thinking that those cultivators establishing laws must have ulterior motives toward him, the "Effective Period of Laws" wielder. Who knows what trap lies within?

Seeing Zhang Yu’s resistant demeanor, Si Shian sighed, "Ah, it seems Younger Brother Zhang deeply misunderstands us."

Si Shian sneered inwardly, "This little brat from the Lower Realm, riding his luck, turning into cannon fodder in this battle of laws, really thinks he’s the Ten Thousand Laws Divine Sword?"

"Hmph, transferring money to you, what does it matter?"

Amidst fluctuating thoughts, Si Shian pointed a finger, and the torrent of Immortal Coins surged onwards, making Zhang Yu helpless despite all his efforts to dodge or resist, only watching as the batch of Immortal Coins crashed into him with a roar.

"Younger Brother Zhang, transferring the account is an unavoidable move. Once made, there’s no escaping or resisting. There’s no need to be polite."

With Si Shian smiling, Zhang Yu felt the batch of Immortal Coins sent evaporating instantly, paying the interest for one month of millennial calculation.

Si Shian explained, "Brother, I’ve temporarily suppressed your debt poison for you. For the next month, even if you leave the testing site, without its environmental suppression, you don’t have to worry about the debt poison erupting."

"You shouldn’t hold too much defense against us; we just hope you seriously consider the sect’s big picture and the interests of the cultivators regarding your law point selection..."

As he spoke, Si Shian’s figure gradually faded, disappearing in front of Zhang Yu.

Watching this scene, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is this a demonstration? Does it mean they can control my debts anytime?"

Meanwhile, Fu Ji internally grumbled, "Are these opposing factions truly so arrogant and overbearing? Don’t they know that being able to establish the ’Effective Period of Laws’ must have the support of the Immortal Emperor behind the scenes?"

Zhan Xian analyzed, "The fact that they dare to act like this indicates the power behind them is significant, at least an Immortal, maybe even Immortal Venerable level."

The God of Reporting responded, "Of course, Boss Fu Ji knows that those daring enough to do this must have Immortal-level backing. What Boss means is... do these Immortals or Immortal Venerables not fear the Immortal Emperor’s drastic actions?"

Fu Ji: "Yes! That’s exactly what I mean!"

Zhan Xian said in a serious tone, "I fear... the situation has changed, allowing them to remain confident and fearless."
