Chapter 673 The Transaction Ends
Chapter 673 The Transaction Ends
I knew you'd say that.
"Take a look at this first!" Sai Feier carefully took an envelope out of her pocket.
"A letter?" Feng Jin took it.
"It's not a letter, but two sheets of paper. One is a drawing, which seems to depict Xi Lian, along with a headless person whose clothes suggest he's a gray-haired boy. The other sheet is a diary with much missing information, but the words 'Iron Tomb' are clearly written on it."
“Oh, right, be careful, those two pieces of paper are very fragile, don’t break them. I had to pay someone to preserve them. I originally planned to give them to the seamstress, but now it seems better to give them to you,” Sai Fei’er said in a long string of words.
Upon hearing Sai Fei'er's reminder, Feng Jin immediately became cautious.
As Feng Jin opened the envelope, two specially treated sheets of paper quickly appeared.
As Feng Jin carefully took out the paper, everyone craned their necks to look.
Just as Sai Fei'er had said, there were indeed two people on one of the papers: a pink-haired, somewhat mischievous-looking Xiao Xilian, and a tall woman whose head was missing.
Judging from the clothes above, they are indeed Star's clothes.
"My head, my head, who cut my head off?" Xing, recognizing herself at a glance, shouted angrily.
“No one cut your hair, and the paper looks like it rotted naturally,” Xi Lian said speechlessly.
"Grey Baby, calm down, it doesn't look like it was cut," Feng Jin comforted her at the same time.
"Actually, I just wanted to liven things up a bit," Xing said seriously the next second.
Everyone: "…………"
After a brief silence from everyone, Xia Die carefully picked up another specially treated piece of paper and looked at it. Qi Fu also leaned over to look at it.
Just as Sai Fei'er said, although a lot of information was indeed missing, the words "Iron Tomb" did appear on it, and it seemed to be a diary written in preparation for the final defeat of Iron Tomb.
“Senior Sai Fei’er, it is indeed as you said, but where did you get these things from, and when did you get them?” Xia Die asked.
“It wasn’t long, I got it around the time Pinocchio held the Holy Grail War, probably about seven or eight days later,” Saifeier said after thinking for a moment.
"So close!" Feng Jin exclaimed in surprise.
“Yes, that’s why I didn’t have time to give this to the seamstress. It took me two or three days to figure out how to handle it,” Sai Fei’er nodded.
"So, you're using this to blackmail us now?" Xing said disdainfully.
"What extortion? I just said this was a gift to you, and it's completely different from the hush money for those fanfiction manuscripts of 'Dwelling Narrowness Princess.' Just recently, that pink fox Yae no Miko in the group contacted me, saying that if I couldn't dispose of the stolen goods, Yae-do could buy them."
“Although she didn’t explicitly say it was a novel about a princess living in a secluded place, it’s obvious that’s what she meant. If it weren’t for the fact that our Onfaros and the outer world aren’t truly connected, I would suspect that she’s planted some kind of spy in Onfaros,” Sai Fei’er said with a look of disbelief.
At this moment, over at the Dust Song Pot, Qi Fu and the women all turned to look at the Eightfold Divine Child.
Yae no Miko, on the contrary, puffed out her chest and revealed a smug expression.
Back on Onfaros's side, Hoshino and the others were also surprised at what Yae no Miko was planning to do, but they didn't investigate the contents of the two papers in detail.
However, they understood the meaning behind Sai Fei'er's words. She wasn't being wary of Yae no Kamiko, but rather telling them that she had an even more ingenious way of handling the manuscript.
They had no choice but to accept this deal.
"The Golden Descendants are truly blessed to have a senior like you," Xing couldn't help but remark.
“As everyone knows, I, Saifeier, am the demigod who cares least about the Journey of Fire. That’s something everyone understands. Gray-haired boy, do you think saying that will make me change my mind?” Saifeier chuckled.
"I agree to the deal, but Senior Saifeier, you haven't told me about the circumstances when you found this. You only found these two pieces of paper?" As the main victim, Xia Die actually agreed decisively.
"Of course not, there's much more, but those things are completely shattered. There's one last stone slab that can still be turned on, but I can only give it to you after the 'Dwelling Narrowness Princess' signs the property transfer agreement."
Of course, Sai Feier couldn't tell the story of what happened, much less that there were originally more things that she had kicked to pieces.
Moreover, the health toys inside were a great disgrace to her many years as a thief, so she told a little lie.
However, Qi Fu saw right through her lie and couldn't help but laugh.
“Okay, I’ll sign…” As the victim, Xia Die agreed once again, took the new agreement and pen from Sai Fei’er, and signed her name on it without any hesitation.
"Oh dear, Butterfly, is this really a good idea? That's your savings of hundreds of years!" Feng Jin exclaimed in shock.
“It’s alright. Money is just an external thing. It’s not important to me. Besides, this is important intelligence. We should focus on the bigger picture,” Xia Die shook her head.
"Alright," Feng Jin agreed since Xia Die had said so. However, she planned to tell Aglaia about it later to see if Aglaia could compensate Xia Die.
"Hahaha, the princess of the secluded house is so generous! I love you so much! If I could hug you, I would love to hold you in my arms and cherish you." After taking back the agreement and looking at the signature on it, Sai Fei'er was overjoyed.
"Next, gray-haired boy, this is the stone slab that was found along with this intelligence. I'm leaving now. I'll come back to Princess Cottage for the money when I have time."
"As for those manuscripts, they're on the second floor, right where I was hiding."
After Sai Feier finished speaking, she instantly disappeared in front of everyone.
"Where did she go? Did she disappear?" Xing was startled when he saw Sai Fei'er vanish right in front of him.
“She didn’t disappear, she ran away. She’s probably in her own base right now,” Feng Jin denied Xing’s statement.
"So fast?" Xing's eyes widened in disbelief.
“Yes, that’s Sai Fei’er’s speed, which is why I said before that we couldn’t catch her,” Feng Jin nodded.
"Alright, Xing, don't worry about these things. Go and have them go upstairs to check if the manuscript is there, and then go back and discuss the unexpected information we've obtained," Xi Lian said.
“Okay!” Xing nodded.
Then, the group took a slight detour and climbed to the second floor, where they discovered Xia Die's manuscript, which was a meter tall. Everyone was once again taken aback.
It seems that Xia Die's masterpieces are probably not limited to Feng Jin and Qi Fu, Bai E and Wan Di, but also include other fan works.
As for what happened to these fanfictions in the end, Feng Jin burned her own copy. She originally wanted to burn the others as well, but in the end, she was defeated by Xia Die's sorrowful eyes.
At this point, it can be confirmed that for Xia Die, who doesn't care about money at all, fan fiction is one of the most important things to her.
After dealing with Xia Die's manuscript, the group headed back. It was on their way back to Ohema that they discovered the secret of the stone tablet that Sai Fei'er had given them.
