My Longevity Simulation
chapter-426

“Go back on my word? What a joke! I, Li Fan, never break my promises.” Li Fan said with an air of pride.

“Then it’s settled. If I lose, I will voluntarily give up practicing the Sitting Mountain Technique. And if you lose…”

Li Fan looked at He Zhenghao coldly: “I won’t make things difficult for you. Besides immediately changing your cultivation technique, you’ll have to give me half of your assets!”

He Zhenghao’s face changed drastically: “This…this…this…”

“Senior! How can you gamble like that?!”

“Hmm?” Li Fan’s eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent, scaring He Zhenghao, who immediately shut his mouth.

“Does the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance have something like a legal contract nowadays?” Li Fan casually asked. “We can’t just rely on verbal agreements, can we? What do you think?”

How could He Zhenghao dare to disagree? He had no choice but to bite the bullet and purchase a commercial contract from the Tianxuan Mirror.

Li Fan took the contract, pretending to be seeing it for the first time, and carefully studied it, showing a thoughtful expression.

Then he wrote down the agreed terms on it and handed the contract to He Zhenghao.

He Zhenghao looked at the extremely harsh terms on the contract and couldn’t help but hesitate.

“Seven or eight days, from 150,000 into 250,000. This is almost impossible to achieve. My chances of winning are pretty good.”

“Now I’m at the mercy of others. I might as well gamble!”

He Zhenghao’s expression kept changing, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and signed his name on the commercial contract.

Two golden lights entered Li Fan and He Zhenghao’s bodies respectively.

The contract was sealed.

Li Fan then said: “Alright, kid. Quickly hand over the 150,000!”

He Zhenghao was confused: “What 150,000?”

Li Fan glared at He Zhenghao and said matter-of-factly: “Of course it’s your 150,000 contribution points! I just woke up, I’m not a member of your Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.”

“Where am I going to find that many contribution points to complete the bet?!”

“Naturally, you’ll have to borrow my contribution points for use.”

He Zhenghao was stunned at first, then completely panicked.

You see, if he lost the bet, he would only lose half at most.

But if his investment failed, it was possible to lose everything!

This was a lesson He Zhenghao had learned through blood and tears over the years.

Even in the face of Li Fan’s killing intent that was as substantial as the real world, he still resolutely refused.

After all, the two parties who signed the commercial contract could not harm each other before the contract was completed.

He Zhenghao was sure of this point and refused to take out his life savings no matter what.

He thought Li Fan would get angry, but instead, he suddenly put on a beaming smile.

“Kid, don’t worry. During the bet, I’ll stay here with you and won’t leave.”

“Moreover, I won’t handle your contribution points. I’ll just give you investment advice.”

“In the end, you’ll still have the final say. If you think it’s really inappropriate, I won’t force you.”

…

Li Fan’s words seemed to have a magical power that could bewitch people’s minds.

He Zhenghao unconsciously let down his guard.

“According to him, I have the final say, so there’s really no risk.”

Just like that, soon after, He Zhenghao, in a daze, cashed out all his investments that were scattered everywhere.

Because it was rushed, he lost a little bit.

In total, he actually received 158,000 contribution points.

When he came to his senses, it was too late to regret.

“Alright, He kid, watch my methods.”

He Zhenghao, who was secretly feeling miserable, only saw Li Fan suddenly burst out with an inexplicable wave of energy, his clothes fluttering without wind.

As for him, his eyes were slightly closed, his fingers continuously pinching, as if he was sensing something.

He Zhenghao could only stand aside, not daring to disturb him.

Li Fan calculated for three whole days.

His complexion gradually turned pale, but his aura kept strengthening with the passage of time.

Although He Zhenghao didn’t understand much, he knew that the other party must be at a critical juncture.

He didn’t dare to breathe loudly and stared intently at Li Fan.

“Hiss!”

Li Fan suddenly let out a low cry and pointed to the sky.

He Zhenghao saw a purple energy, as if breaking through the formation, flying towards the sky.

“What kind of divine ability is this…”

He was secretly shocked in his heart.

After a moment, Li Fan suddenly opened his eyes, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Got it!”

He Zhenghao was stunned: “What did you get?”

Li Fan didn’t answer but instead asked: “Does the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance have something called ‘Obsidian Jade’ nowadays?”

“Obsidian Jade?” He Zhenghao frowned and searched in the Tianxuan Mirror.

After a while.

He replied: “There is such a thing. It’s a rare refining material. Although it’s precious, it doesn’t have many uses.”

“Senior, why are you asking about this?” He Zhenghao felt a little puzzled.

“Fifteen contribution points, buy all of it!” Li Fan said decisively.

He Zhenghao was shocked: “Why?”

Li Fan impatiently said: “Heaven’s secrets cannot be revealed, just buy it! How much you can earn with 150,000 contribution points, it all depends on this one investment!”

He Zhenghao finally realized and said in disbelief: “Is this your investment strategy, Senior?”

Li Fan looked down at him with disdain and sneered: “Kid, you were still a nobody when I was cultivating the Sitting Mountain Technique! How dare you question me now?”

He Zhenghao opened his mouth but ultimately, under Li Fan’s intimidation, he dared not retort.

However, as a qualified investor, He Zhenghao didn’t rush to buy according to Li Fan’s instructions. Instead, he silently and carefully checked the information about the ‘Obsidian Jade’.

“The biggest and only use of this stone is to forge the ‘Obsidian Boat’ that can travel freely through the earth veins.”

“The amount in existence and the circulation volume are both relatively small, and the price fluctuation is also relatively small.”

“Although it might not make a profit, it should be unlikely to lose money.”

“I’ll listen to him for now. There are still four days left before the bet ends. I don’t believe this thing can really skyrocket in price in such a short time.”

Seeing Li Fan impatiently urging him from the side, He Zhenghao thought for a moment and made a decision.

“Alright, since Senior insists, then I have no choice but to do as you say.”

The price of Obsidian Jade was 280 contribution points per pound.

He Zhenghao bought it while saying to Li Fan: “Senior, you’ve been asleep for a long time, you must know that the world today is different from ancient times.”

“Our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has the Tianxuan Mirror, a treasure that regulates the market, and prices are generally very stable.”

“There might be minor fluctuations, but Senior, you want to get rich by this method…”

He Zhenghao shook his head slightly.

Li Fan snorted coldly: “What are you rambling about, just wait and see!”

“A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, how can you know the divine abilities of my Tian Ji Sect?!”

He Zhenghao was unconvinced but still closed his mouth.

He held a grudge in his heart and was waiting to see Li Fan’s joke.

Until two days later.

Before his very eyes, he witnessed the price of ‘Obsidian Jade’ skyrocket.
