Chapter 72: Ethereal Water
“Come with me.” Xu Xiaoxuan looked around and led Zhou Ping to a secluded corner.
“These people were brought by someone,” Xu Xiaoxuan once again confirmed that there was no one around, and then told Zhou Ping. “Didn’t you find out? A lot of those who came are not from Yanping. There are also some people who, logically, are not qualified to enter the Fortune Club.”
“Is it true? What’s the matter?” Zhou Ping glanced at the audience and found that many people were obviously not Yanping’s dignitaries. The strength of some people was obviously not at the same level as the others.
“I just received news about this.” Xu Xiaoxuan sighed. “This time there is another genius.”
“What?” Zhou Ping was stunned. “A genius? What genius? What does this have to do with us? There are a lot of crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the world. There seems to be no surprise that a few geniuses will appear, right?”
“Yes, but if it appears, is it a peerless genius like you, Aping?” Xu Xiaoxuan had seen Zhou Ping’s strength, and that tyrannical strength gave her a great shock.
“A peerless genius like me?” Zhou Ping smiled, not caring. For him, the word to describe ?the system could not be offset by the word genius. Without understanding the power of the system, outsiders would never be able to imagine what bargaining chips they rely on.
“Even if there are peerless geniuses, what does it have to do with us? What does it have to do with these people?”
“Yanping is the capital and the center of the country. It can be said that any decision made here determines the direction of the country. Therefore, Yanping’s dignitaries have always been the top in the country.” Xu Xiaoxuan did not answer Zhou Ping.0 Instead, she talked about other things first.
“Do you think that a peerless genius, or an ambitious genius, will be willing to lay low?” Xu Xiaoxuan looked solemn.
.
“Willing? Anyone who is ambitious will not lay low. Whom does that peerless genius intend to turn to?” Zhou Ping asked without surprise.
“It would be fine if that peerless genius intends to take refuge in others.” Xu Xiaoxuan sighed.
“Oh? Won’t you want to take refuge to others?” Zhou Ping chuckled lightly. “Then what is he going to do? The cake has been divided. Is he still planning to redistribute it? I’m afraid he doesn’t have this ability yet!”
“Although I don’t plan to redistribute it, others are more arrogant than you think.” Xu Xiaoxuan picked up a glass of red wine and took a sip. “How can a peerless genius be willing to be a vassal?”
“He has the final say. “Zhou Ping sneered. “Is he willing or not? What can he do if he doesn’t? This is Yanping. Any decision can make a group go bankrupt!”
“You are right. For us, they are just a group of ants. But if this group of ants unite?” Xu Xiaoxuan said softly.
“Union? How is it possible?” Zhou Ping sneered. “Let’s not say that they also have a competitive relationship with each other, and human nature seeks benefits. Even if they can reluctantly unite, as long as there is a little bit of a divide and a group of people get some benefits, this so-called union will soon fall apart.
“The so-called union has always been just a joke.” Zhou Ping didn’t care.
“Before, it may be true. But now…”
“How are we now?” Zhou Ping frowned.
“The current situation is very interesting. That peerless genius actually united a large number of local powers.”
“Huh?” Zhou Ping was taken aback. “United local powers? How did he do it? What does he want to do?”
“Benefits!” Xu Xiaoxuan said. “Aping, what you said is right. Human nature seeks benefits. With benefits, anyone can unite.”
“That peerless genius was originally just the son of an ordinary small businessman, but he just made it out of nothing, created extremely huge benefits, and attracted countless dignitaries. Coupled with his profound martial arts cultivation and some opportunities, he was appreciated by the nobles. No one dared to deal with him and let him survive for long. After that, the peerless genius used this benefit to unite a large number of powerful and weak, and even got honored in a province.
“This time, that peerless genius entered Yanping with a large number of local dignitaries, planning to use the same means to gain a foothold in Yanping.
“Those local dignitaries also fully support the peerless genius, and they also hope that that person can become Yanping’s greatest dignitary, so as to protect them in turn,” Xu Xiaoxuan continued.
“That said, what is that huge benefit?” Zhou Ping saw the most important bit at a glance. If it were not for the support of the so-called huge interests, these people would not be able to unite. That peerless genius seemed to want to rely on this to gain a foothold in Yanping.
“It’s a kind of water called Ethereal Water.”
“Ethereal Water?” Zhou Ping looked at Xu Xiaoxuan, waiting for her to explain.
“After taking it, it can eliminate various negative states like fatigue and mental confusion. Not only that, but it can also promote the growth of internal strength, nourish the body, and repair hidden injuries to a certain extent. More importantly, There are no side effects!” Xu Xiaoxuan said solemnly.
“Oh?” Even Zhou Ping got curious.
It could eliminate all kinds of negative conditions, that was to say, once one was fatigued in practice, he could continue to practice by drinking this Ethereal Water. That was equivalent to a lot of time for cultivation, and just because of this, there was no need to worry about sales. Coupled with the ability to promote internal strength, it was enough for countless people to go crazy.
What’s more, it could nourish the body and treat hidden wounds. That point had a fatal attraction to martial artists practicing external strength. External martial skills were not good at self-cultivation. If a cultivator could not break through to the point where the internal qi was self-generating, he would suffer from hidden injuries after reaching the body’s peak.
“In this way, Ethereal Water has an irresistible attraction for practitioners of internal strength, practitioners of external strength, and even ordinary people. Now that martial arts are prosperous, and almost everyone is practicing martial arts, what a great benefit! This ethereal water is a consumable, and this benefit can be said to be endless.” Zhou Ping was full of admiration. “No wonder he can unite so many local powers. No wonder he dared to come to Yanping to develop his power. This ethereal water is enough for him to gain a foothold.”
“It didn’t touch the interests of other people, but created enough interests out of thin air. There is also a group of local powers supporting it enough not to worry about being swallowed by someone. This person is interesting.”
“What’s the name of this peerless genius?” Zhou Ping became interested.
“His name is Zhang Bufan.” Xu Xiaoxuan said.
“Oh? It’s him…” Zhou Ping was taken aback and showed a meaningful smile.
