Chapter 38 Transactions

"Tell me, what do you want to know? I'll answer depending on my mood."

Samia straightened her expression and said softly: "What I want to know is the origin of that school rule."

Chu Lian blinked in surprise, "If you want to ask about this..." She suddenly smiled, "Besides me, it is indeed difficult for you to find other insiders."

"So..." Seeing her delay in explaining, Samia urged her.

"So..." Chu Lian suddenly opened his white palms. Although he was obviously a head lower than the opponent, his eyes were very provocative, "I have to confirm whether your information is equivalent to mine."

"What if the information you gave me is something I already knew?"

"Even if it's trading, I can't do business at a loss, right?"

Samia looked at her with a "despicable foreigner" look, and sighed in her heart, "Okay."

"The information I want to talk about - mainly related to credits."

"Indispensable currency, important means of transportation, multiple ways to obtain it, campus network..." Chu Lian interrupted the other party first, "Besides these, do you have any additional information that you can tell me?"

"...information about the school team?"

"No need." Chu Lian replied simply again, "I have no interest in joining the school team."

Chu Xiangyun glanced at Samia with a slightly sympathetic look. He had almost finished what he knew from his senior sister, but Samia could only remain silent.

Chu Lian would not miss this detail.

Although Samia is very good at putting on pretences, she knew the outcome of the matter as soon as she saw sister Xiao Chu's simple reaction, so her smile became more and more undisguised.

Samia: "..."

In fact, from the moment Chu Lian revealed the information that was difficult to know, Samia knew that she had underestimated the other party's ability. It seemed that it was difficult for this transaction to end easily.

She sighed leisurely, her shoulders drooped, and her upright posture suddenly became slumped. She said a little pitifully: "I still have some information about the head of the Propaganda Department?"

Chu Lian crossed his hands in a gesture of prohibition and mercilessly exposed the disguise of the person opposite him, "Deliberately showing weakness is of no use to me."

She seemed to have met Yuxian before, and frowned in disgust, "I never want to see that guy again in my life."

She and that person had an incompatible aura of mutual repulsion.

"But if you have something to do with that person... I can consider it." Chu Lian recalled, "Maybe it's the weakness of that person, such as his... or her true gender?"

"There must be some ulterior secret that has been hidden all this time." Chu Lian laughed evilly, "Then I will be very interested in it."

Samia tapped the ground with her scepter to wake up Chu Lian who was dreaming.

She handed the umbrella to Chu Xiangyun who was standing aside, and pressed her hands on the top of the scepter as if to declare.

"The intelligence deal fell apart."

Chu Lian didn't expect her to give up so quickly. She raised her eyebrows in surprise, turned around and left without any hesitation.

Three, two, one... She counted silently in her mind.

I just heard the person behind me say——

"A new transaction begins."

Chu Lian turned around suddenly with interest, smiled and looked at Samia who suddenly closed her eyes, "Please tell me."

Samia did not close her eyes completely, but half-closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes of the same color as her hair trembled slightly, and the scepter exuded a mysterious shimmer under her hand.

Chu Xiangyun opened his blindfold, his eyes wandered between Samia's scepter and herself, unwilling to close his eyes for a moment.

"I can use a prophecy in exchange for your information."

"Prophecy?" Chu Lian touched his chin, "Is it like what you did on the mountain?"

"Almost. I will ask the goddess for a revelation, and the content of the revelation is——"

"The solution to what's bothering you most now or in the future."

Even after hearing such miraculous things, Chu Lian still looked indifferent. She asked doubtfully: "How do I know whether the method your god said is feasible?"

"Suppose what bothers me the most right now is that I want to kill that Jade Immortal, and you tell me that as long as I study hard, I will be able to defeat that person one day. Is this considered useful advice?"

"There won't be anything like that." As if she was used to hearing such doubts, Samia's attitude was extremely confident, "If this is the answer, then the transaction will be void immediately."

Chu Lian pondered for a while, "I don't need to tell you what is the most troublesome thing for me, right?"

Isn't that as useless as going to church to seek confession? Chu Lian thought to himself, and then he was amused by his inexplicable thoughts.

"No need." Samia replied.

"Okay, I agree." Chu Lian spread his hands and looked indifferent, still looking like he didn't trust him, "What do I need to do?"

Samia opened her eyes with a solemn expression.

She stretched out a hand towards Chu Lian, and the sun cast a halo behind her head, which was inexplicably sacred.

"Come, hold my hand."

Chu Lian wrinkled his nose in disgust and put his hand up.

Samia lowered her head and murmured an unknown prayer. The language was like a ballad with a strange rhythm, making people intoxicated.

Her expression was pious but gentle, with a smile on her lips, as if she was whispering to her mother. It was more like a sincere request than a believer's begging to the gods.

Just when Chu Xiangyun was fascinated by this spiritual power that was sweeter than wine, Samia suddenly stopped, took out a tissue, covered her mouth suddenly, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

When Chu Lian saw the red color, he was so frightened that he immediately retracted his hand, "Hey, hey, hey! Don't touch the porcelain!" She took two steps back and made a surrender gesture, "I didn't do anything. There are witnesses here.

!”

Chu Xiangyun nodded, raised his hand and said, "I prove it."

Jiujiu twitched the corner of her mouth, missing the reliable Shi Zhuqing very much at this moment, "Now is not the time to talk about this, I am vomiting blood!"

"Samia-san? Are you okay? Do I need to take you to the infirmary?"

It grabbed Chu Xiangyun's pocket and probed to see Samia's condition.

The latter coughed twice, folded a tissue and wiped the remaining blood at the corner of his mouth, and smiled palely, "It doesn't matter."

"It's just a side effect of using a spell beyond my ability. It will be fine after a while."

"Magic? It's also spiritual magic, right?" Chu Lian's focus was completely confused, but he pretended to be concerned, "Oh, Mr. Sa, if you don't know how to use it, don't force yourself. It will make others worry.

"

Samia ignored her strange aura, stood up straight with her scepter, and waved to the other party to come over.

Is there anything that our sister, Xiao Chu, cannot listen to?

Chu Lian wanted to say something like this at the moment, but she had some vague guesses about Samia's words, and finally suppressed her desire to talk nonsense and approached with a little nervousness.

Jiujiu was also very curious, and turned around to ask Xiaoyun to listen, but saw that she was looking up at the sky completely indifferently, as if she was lost in inexplicable memories and thoughts, so she had to shut up.

When it looked back, the two people had finished whispering, and Chu Lian was lowering his head in silence, as if thinking about something.

Samia's broken whispers were carried by the wind.

"...I didn't expect...really...who is it?"

Chu Lian glanced at her, and the two seemed to be getting closer, but she still hummed softly, "It has nothing to do with you."

She turned her head and looked at Chu Xiangyun who was standing there, cleared her throat and returned to normal volume.

"Deal done."
