Chapter 1303: Chapter 26 Working to Pay Off Debt! Not Awkward (Asking for Monthly Pass)_2 Chapter 1303: Chapter 26 Working to Pay Off Debt! Not Awkward (Asking for Monthly Pass)_2 “Come on, come on, keep it going,” the Emperor Longchang said, eager to start the next game.

Seeing that the expression on Chi Mei Demon Master’s face was off, he soothed her with a friendly smile, “Xueqing, don’t be scared. With mahjong, luck is unstoppable when it comes. Who knows, you might just turn everything around with one hand.”

“Yes… Elder!” What else could the Chi Mei Demon Master say? She had no choice but to pluck up the courage to keep playing.

Facing an emperor, she dared not take it lightly, gathering her spirits and concentrating on her mahjong game.

And so it went on, over and over again.

Half a month later.

The Chi Mei Demon Master had gone from being a penniless Shen-tong realm cultivator to one drowning in debt.

Another day of ‘mahjong life’ ended, and she was escorted back to her luxurious and comfortable top-tier VIP suite by Ji, feeling light-headed. Her once spirited phoenix eyes were now completely blank, filled with philosophical questions.

Who am I? Where am I? Why am I here? Where am I going?

Okay, I am the Chi Mei Demon Master, on a mission to infiltrate the Wang family, to gather intelligence and take control of it!

But before the plan even started, she ended up playing mahjong for a good half month. Of course, there were wins and losses, but in the end, she was in huge debt.

It took a good while for the Chi Mei Demon Master to recover her spirits.

However, the situation hadn’t improved at all.

Recalling the huge debt she owed caused her vision to darken and her heart to feel icy cold.

So many Immortal Crystals, even selling herself wouldn’t settle the debt!

Meanwhile.

At Wang Shouzhe’s courtyard.

After the mahjong table was cleared, Wang Luoyi went back to her own yard, but Emperor Longchang stayed behind, now comfortably drinking tea and chatting with Liu Ruolan.

Old Yao was standing by to serve tea to them from time to time.

“Ruolan, I told you, there’s definitely something off with Jiang Xueqing. She’s lost so much over half a month and still hasn’t thought of running. If it were that old kid Tianhe, he would have bolted already.” Emperor Longchang squinted his eyes, appearing to have everything figured out, with a cunning look on his face, “I knew something was wrong when I saw her. If she were impersonating a descendant from another Immortal Palace Sacred Land, it would have been one thing, but she had to pretend to be Ji’s student.”

“Hehe, do I not know Ji well? She appears aloof and seems unsociable, but those who really know her understand that she’s deviously cunning and shameless, quite like Wang Shouzhe in that regard. If Jiang Xueqing were really Ji’s disciple, her reaction wouldn’t have been what it was. Speaking of which, the more I think about it, the more similar Ji and Shouzhe seem…” Emperor Longchang mused, and then couldn’t help but mutter, “Could it be that Shouzhe is also a True Immortal reincarnate? Did he know Ji in his past life?”

“Hehe,” Liu Ruolan sipped her tea, smiling serenely, “Is that so? When my husband returns, I’ll ask him.”

Old Yao’s heart skipped a beat.

Your Majesty, can’t you talk with a bit more caution? Didn’t you realize Liu Ruolan is not one to be offended lightly?

He quietly took a step back and subtly moved half a step towards Liu Ruolan.

“Ruolan, what do you think about this Jiang Xueqing? What is her purpose for coming to our Wang family?” Emperor Longchang asked eagerly, “How do you plan to deal with her?”

“Actually, there aren’t many possibilities. The probability of her being from the Demonic Dynasty seems higher,” Liu Ruolan said with her usual composure, “We’ll keep her around for now. She might be useful, and she can’t stir up any trouble anyway.”

“Anyhow, I’ve contributed,” Emperor Longchang gazed at her expectantly, “I should be rewarded, right? How about this, our mahjong games this half month were also in the line of duty. Ruolan, why don’t you write it off for me?”

“Your Majesty jests, would you return the money you’ve won to me?” Liu Ruolan smiled gently at him.

“I would not,” the Emperor Longchang admitted helplessly.

“Neither will I,” Liu Ruolan continued, with a smile yet a decisive tone, “The money I won with my own skill, why should I return it? As for Your Majesty uncovering a spy, you can settle the Contribution Points reward with Artifact Spirit Lil Snow by yourself. A spy from the Shen-tong realm should have a decent reward.”

“…” Emperor Longchang was so angered that he blew his beard and glared, “Ruolan, you’re too much, even more cunning and ruthless than Ji! How easy is it for me at this age to make money?”

“Some time ago, Zong Chang returned and discovered a Wood Type medium-top quality Spirit Veins,” Liu Ruolan spoke calmly, “Would Your Majesty be interested…”

“Interested, very interested, that’s precious!” Emperor Longchang immediately beamed with joy, “Top quality Spirit Veins are hard to draw, it requires extra payment! Actually, it isn’t about the money, but rather for Little Immortal. She’s still too weak now. If she could reach Level Nine earlier, even if she encounters a Void Realm Cultivator in a war, she would be able to protect herself.”

“If Your Majesty is happy, that’s what matters,” Liu Ruolan handed over a map.

Emperor Longchang took one look and gasped, “This distance is quite far, almost reaching Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom’s territory.”

“It’s over ten thousand li away,” Liu Ruolan added, “The position of the Spirit Veins is rather hidden; Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom probably hasn’t discovered it yet.”

“No, no, those three old critters from Demon Country are too formidable, one is nearly reaching Level Twelve!” Emperor Longchang shook his head like a rattle-drum, “I want to peacefully live out my remaining years~~ How about this, I heard that Anye is set to undertake a mission. I’ll stay behind to protect him, and at the same time, keep an eye on Jiang Xueqing.”
