Chapter 1015: Departure
Chapter 1015 Leaving
Gong Lao thought carefully, seems to be so reasonable, he went back this time, at least have to stay in Chang Jing Tian for several months, if the fighting field side refused to let go, Xu Yaotou really can not go.
However, directly to the city government to complain, is bound to offend the arena, the arena’s forces throughout the lower three heavens, if they are up to retaliation, that would be troublesome.
“Let’s do it this way, I’ll accompany you on this trip, although the old man I don’t have much ability, but at least I’m also an Earth Immortal with a public office, for my identity, the fighting arena shouldn’t make things difficult for you.”
Xu Chuniang was a little hesitant, “In that case, will it cause you any trouble?”
Although Elder Gong had a public position, in the eyes of the truly great powers, this bit of status was nothing.
What’s more, Gong Lao was sent to this ZongDongTian back then because he had offended someone, and if he offended the fighting arena for his own reasons, he would only be in an even more difficult situation.
Gong Lao waved his hand, telling Xu Chuniang not to worry.
“I have been mixing in the Immortal Realm for so many years, not for nothing, and I have made quite a few friends with status and position… To be honest, when I return to Changing Heaven this time, I intend to find an opportunity to visit those friends of mine, and see if I can figure out a way to be transferred back to Changing Heaven to serve ahead of time.
I’ll go with you, and even if the fighting arena refuses to sell me face, I’ll have my own way to make them release them obediently.”
Knowing that this matter would not involve Elder Gong, Xu Chuniang nodded her head readily, “If you are willing to go on this trip, that would be the best.”
Gong Lao got up, “Since you’ve already made up your mind to leave the fighting arena, choose a day rather than bump into it, let’s do it today, settle the matter earlier, and you can also go to Chang Jing Tian earlier.”
At this, Xu Chuniang had no objections whatsoever, and immediately led Gong Lao towards towards the front hall, finding Steward Tang to explain his intentions.
After learning that Xu Chuniang wanted to leave the arena, the smile on Steward Tang’s face faded.
“I say, Fairy Xu, in the year or so that you’ve been in the arena, the arena has treated you quite well, hasn’t it? You’ve earned a good amount of immortal crystals in the fighting arena, so why do you want to leave?”
Xu Chuniang had long expected that the fighting arena wouldn’t release her easily, and upon hearing this, she didn’t feel surprised, but only silently took out the contract and placed it on the desk.
“When I signed the contract with the fighting arena, it was clearly written in black and white, as long as I fight in the arena for a full hundred games, I will be able to leave the arena, Steward Tang should know that, right?”
Steward Tang narrowed his eyes and swept the contract on the table, cracking a smile.
“This contract is dead, but people are alive, everything is negotiable, don’t you think so, Fairy Xu? Besides, if you really leave the arena, where can you find a job that can earn so many immortal crystals?
We are not dealing with one or two times, what are the requirements you directly say, as long as within the scope of my ability, I must help.”
Xu Chuniang was unmoved, “Thank you for your kindness, but I’m determined to go, so please fulfill my wish.”
Steward Tang fixedly glanced at Xu Chuniang, as if trying to see from her eyes whether she really wanted to leave the arena, or whether she was using this as an excuse to fight for more say.
“Immortal Xu has to engage in eight bouts every month, and from time to time, she still gets injured, I know that you’ve been in the arena for a long time and have developed a sense of fatigue.
How about this, we sign a new contract, and from now on, you only need to perform five bouts per month, how about that?”
Xu Chuniang shook her head and smiled, her tone firm, “Steward Tang may still understand what I mean, I have no intention of continuing to stay in the fighting arena.”
As the other party made his words so blunt, the expression on Steward Tang’s face became a little taut, and he vaguely realized that Xu Chuniang really wanted to break away from the fighting arena.
He sighed softly, his tone rare and somewhat sincere.
“I don’t know why Immortal Xu made such a decision, but isn’t it a bit hasty yet, have you really thought about leaving the arena?
Or I can give you a half year’s truce, so that you can take a good rest and adjust your condition in the meantime.”
Half a year’s truce, not to say it wasn’t long, Steward Tang this time, was really giving in.
It was just a pity that the next path, Xu Chuniang had already planned it out long ago. Gong Lao, who had been silent, finally spoke.
“Actually, Xu Chuniang plans to leave the fighting arena because there’s a better place to go, and she’ll be joining me, traveling to the Everquiet Sky.”
Steward Tang was taken aback and subconsciously sized up Elder Gong.
The other party’s cultivation was introverted, and he couldn’t see his specific realm, either his cultivation was higher than his own, or he had used an immortal artifact that concealed his cultivation.
However, since he had opened his mouth and said that he wanted to take Xu Chuniang to Changjing Heaven, I’m afraid that in all likelihood, he was an Earth Immortal!
Steward Tang quickly regained his composure, so what if he was an Earth Immortal, their fighting arena also had a background, and even the idle Heavenly Immortals didn’t dare to mess with them.
He didn’t move and asked, ”I wonder who Your Excellency is, and in what capacity are you taking Immortal Xu to Changjing Heaven? You have to know that she is still a member of my Dou Fang, Your Excellency acting in such a manner is a bit out of bounds.”
Elder Gong showed Steward Tang a token and said indifferently.
“I’m just an Immortal Envoy, insignificant, it’s just that someone behind me has taken a fancy to Fairy Xu, and I’m just following orders.
What’s more, Immortal Xu has already fought a hundred matches, and if the fighting arena refuses to release her, that doesn’t make sense, does it?”
After seeing the token, Steward Tang fell silent.
Although the other party was only a most ordinary Immortal Envoy, he couldn’t afford to offend the person behind this token.
While it was a pity to lose a C-grade fighter, it would be even more unintentional for him to make enemies and invite trouble for the arena as a result.
After quickly weighing the pros and cons, a hint of a smile appeared on Steward Tang’s face.
“For Immortal Xu to have such a creation, it would be my fault if I were to stop it.”
He dryly took out the other contract and placed it on the desk, crisply destroying both together.
The two deeds transformed into starry spiritual light that slowly dissipated between heaven and earth.
Xu Chuniang only felt a sense of relief in her heart, as the contract was destroyed, some kind of invisible binding force disappeared from her.
Steward Tang looked towards her and solemnly said, “Fairy Xu, from today onwards, you will have nothing to do with the fighting arena, but of course, if you wish to return to the arena in the future, we welcome you at any time.”
“Many thanks.”
Xu Chuniang arched her hand, but in her heart, she felt that there wouldn’t be that day again.
The fighting arena was a field of fame and fortune, and those who had nothing could only fight and struggle with all their might, it was not good to be too weak, and it was not good to act too conspicuously.
This place is just a short stop for her, and after a short stay, she will set off again, looking for a more suitable battlefield.
After returning the talisman issued by the fighting arena, Xu Chuniang and Gong Lao walked out of the arena one after the other.
The former fighting arena transformed into a mountain forest and disappeared into the spatial formation.
Gong Lao winked towards Xu Chuniang, “How about it, I told you I had a solution, right?”
