With a quick glance, she noticed Yun Tiange, who was standing protectively behind Wang Shouzhe, looking at her with wary eyes. Immediately, she understood what was happening.This was the fortune-turning moment for her, the Water Moon Saintess, encountering a fat... no, a noble sheep... no, a distinguished guest!
This friend of Saint Qingyuan exuded an aura from head to toe that screamed, "I’m a rich person."
In almost an instant, the Water Moon Saintess’s demeanor transformed from that of a venomous Saintess to a graceful and elegant noblewoman, exuding "stately charm" and "gentle sanctity."
She bowed slightly to Wang Shouzhe and said softly, "I didn’t notice we had an esteemed guest earlier and was joking around with Qingyuan without restraint. I must have made you laugh."
Wang Shouzhe returned the gesture gracefully, saying, "Shouzhe greets Your Highness, the Water Moon Saintess."
Shouzhe?
The Water Moon Saintess frowned slightly; the name sounded familiar, but she couldn’t remember why.
Oh well~ if she couldn’t remember, she let it go.
The Water Moon Saintess didn’t dwell on it much, smiling endearingly as she said, "Meeting is fate. I invite you, Young Master Shouzhe, to visit my Water Moon Heavenly Abode at your convenience, so I can do my humble duty as a host."
"Water Moon, you mustn’t have any designs on Brother Shouzhe!" Saint Qingyuan hurried forward to stop her, "He is Lici’s Fourth Uncle, don’t mess around."
"Lici’s Fourth Uncle? Oh, I remember now, the Fourth Uncle Wang Shouzhe that Lici often talks about." As soon as she heard, the Water Moon Saintess became even more excited, "Lici is my good sister. Her Fourth Uncle is naturally my Fourth Uncle~~ Fourth Uncle, why don’t you lend me some money?"
Saint Qingyuan was dumbfounded.
His face turned ashen, overwhelmed with embarrassment.
Everyone equated him, Saint Qingyuan, with the Water Moon Saintess, their reputation, strength, and status being roughly equal.
Yet, for the Water Moon Saintess to call someone Fourth Uncle so easily and even borrow money... it was downright embarrassing for both of them.
Wang Shouzhe, however, didn’t mind and simply smiled as he clasped his hands, "I don’t dare accept the title of Fourth Uncle. Since Her Highness the Saintess and Lici are good sisters, lending money is naturally no problem. How much would Her Highness like to borrow?"
The Water Moon Saintess became instantly excited, rubbing her fingers together enthusiastically, "Twen...ty Immortal Spirit Stones."
Wang Shouzhe rummaged through his storage ring and handed over twenty Immortal Spirit Stones to the Water Moon Saintess.
The Water Moon Saintess was dumbfounded.
It was the first time in her life she borrowed money so freely and recklessly.
Immediately, she took the Immortal Spirit Stones with excitement and said with enthusiasm, "Thank you, Fourth Uncle. You are the Fourth Uncle that I, Water Moon, have acknowledged."
Where is this a Fourth Uncle? Clearly, he’s more like a father~
"I can’t talk right now. I’ve got to seize this rare opportunity to make a fortune. I have a feeling that even without Lici, I’m going to make a huge profit this time. Lici said that with stone gambling, you just have to follow your intuition."
As she spoke, the Water Moon Saintess was already tearing through space and leaving the Cloud Sea Heavenly Abode.
Through the space rift that hadn’t closed yet, her voice came from afar: "Fourth Uncle, don’t leave the Sacred Dynasty just yet. I’ll come back to repay the money."
And with that, her figure completely vanished into the spatial rift.
"Oh dear, Brother Shouzhe, how could you lend her money?" Saint Qingyuan was full of regret.
Brother Shouzhe took out the money so swiftly that he didn’t even have time to react and stop him. If he hadn’t seen with his own eyes that what Brother Shouzhe took out were Immortal Spirit Stones, he might have thought he was casually taking out Immortal Crystals.
"Why? There’s no way a Saintess from a Heavenly Abode would default on her debts, is there?" Wang Shouzhe replied, smiling calmly like the wind and clouds.
"Well... although the Water Moon Saintess has all five poisons, she actually doesn’t have the habit of defaulting, and she’s quite trustworthy," Saint Qingyuan admitted truthfully, "I’m mainly worried she won’t be able to pay it back. She just can’t keep Immortal Spirit Stones in her pocket. Once she has them, they’re gone... If she can’t pay back, you’re not going to beat her, are you?"
"As long as she doesn’t default, it’s fine. Who cares if she’s Lici’s sister, some help is just necessary," Wang Shouxin smiled faintly, but in his heart, he mused.
If she can’t pay back, even better. If she can’t pay off the debt, she can always repay with her services~
He’s been worried about not having enough manpower~
Yun Tiange had become quite familiar with Wang Shouzhe.
Seeing that slight smile on his face, she could already guess what Wang Shouzhe was plotting, and couldn’t help but light a candle in her heart for the Saintess about to fall into the trap.
Ah~ these people from the Sacred Domain are too naive, fooled by Wang Shouzhe’s clean and lofty appearance, unaware of the "malice" of human hearts.
A Saintess like the Water Moon probably won’t even realize she’s been "outsmarted" by Wang Shouzhe and will be grateful to him~
