Chapter 651: Chapter 0421: I Don’t Want to Accept_2 Chapter 651: Chapter 0421: I Don’t Want to Accept_2 Admittedly, Gao Jinmei’s knowledge far surpassed that of Qi Tian’s, but today she witnessed something never seen before. The dignified Gold Core Realm master was begging to be a slave, which was quite an odd sight. However, Gao Jinmei understood this was not due to the charm of young master Qi Tian, but rather the terror of life and death that left Bu Jianerti no choice. If he couldn’t beg for Qi Tian’s approval at this moment, his only prospect was death.

Qi Tian allowed Bu Jianerti to kowtow, with no sign of emotion in his eyes. Eventually, after Bu Jianerti’s forehead turned red and swollen from kowtowing and his wrists were scraped raw by shackles, blood seeping out, Qi Tian finally said, “Enough of your kowtowing. Bu Jianerti, as you have seen, I am not lacking in Gold Core Realm Immortal Slaves. You may be somewhat stronger than Lu Jingfei and others, but in comparison to Deng and Gao Jinmei, you are far behind. Your presence here doesn’t make much of a difference to me. Besides, you are a Chi Di, and frankly, I lack trust in the Chi Di people. Even if you became my Immortal Slave, I would still remain skeptical. Given these two points, I truly have no desire to take you in.”

If someone other than Qi Tian had spoken these words, Bu Jianerti would have angrily spouted retorts. Gold Core Realm masters are not as common as cabbages. Among ten thousand cultivators who have embarked on the path of cultivation, it’s likely that not even one would be a Gold Core Realm master. Each of them can be considered a force to be reckoned with, even in Wanjie City, where they are given due respect. However, in Qi Tian’s words, they were seen as insignificant, as worthless as small potatoes. But Bu Jianerti was unable to voice these thoughts – Qi Tian was correct. Compared to Deng Chuanliang and Gao Jinmei, he was nothing, and Qi Tian’s disdain for him was justified.

In the Chi Di community, Bu Jianerti was seen as an influential figure. Even the Heavenly Khan treated him courteously and he himself was not without pride. However, in front of Qi Tian, who held power over his life and death, that sense of pride vanished. He racked his brains, contemplating on how to persuade Qi Tian to take him in and grant him the opportunity to serve as his Immortal Slave.

“I have considerable influence within the Chi Di tribe. If you would take me under your wing, all my resources will be yours,” Bu Jianerti said.

Qi Tian shook his head, “For someone at the Gold Core First Level, even if you do wield some influence, what treasure could you possibly offer me that would impress me?”

Bu Jianerti’s lips twitched. Even though Qi Tian was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, there was no denying the truth in his words, and Bu Jianerti couldn’t dispute that. So, he instead argued, “As you pointed out earlier, I am slightly stronger than Lu Jingfei. Therefore, I can undertake tasks that Lu Jingfei is unable to complete and which Gao Jinmei deems beneath her. Additionally, although I am part of the Chi Di tribe, not all of us are bad. There are good people among us, and I am one of them. Even though you dislike the Chi Di, you have not wiped us all out. If you can give ordinary people a chance, why wouldn’t you offer me the same? I will prove my sincerity and reliability as an immortal slave through my actions.”

After some contemplation, Qi Tian nodded slightly. Adjusting his posture, he looked at Bu Jianerti, “Any other reasons? Give me a compelling one. If you can prove your utility to me, I will spare your life and make you my Immortal Slave.”

Bu Jianerti’s heart jumped at these words. He knew this was a key moment that would decide his fate. All his words mattered, and he could not afford to be careless. After some thought, he said, “Master, I’ve heard rumors that when the previous Heavenly Khan passed away, eighty-eight coffins were carried out of the city and buried in different places. These burial sites were then trampled flat by thousands of horses. People say this was done to hide the true burial place of the previous Heavenly Khan. However, according to my knowledge, this is only one side of the story. In reality, the Royal Court of the Chi Di also used this opportunity to bury a staggering amount of wealth, intending it as an inheritance for the future generations. If one day, the Chi Di Royal Court were to fall into decline, this wealth would serve as the capital for their comeback.”

“Wealth, you mean, gold and silver?” Qi Tian raised an eyebrow.

Bu Jianerti hastily replied, “It’s not just gold and silver, I believe there is also a significant amount of cultivation resources. This is based on what the South Palace King let slip during a drinking session on one occasion. However, the actual locations of these eighty-eight burial sites are only known to the heir of the Royal Court. Many of those who were present at the funeral were killed on some account by the Heavenly Khan to prevent any chance of the location being discovered. It took me a lot of effort to secretly gather information on the approximate locations of seventy of these sites. If you will allow me to serve as your Immortal Slave and continue living, I am willing to provide all the information I collected about the burial sites.”

Qi Tian’s interest was peeked by Bu Jianerti’s words. Not long ago, he had raided the inner and outer treasuries of the Royal Court, yielding a considerable bounty. If indeed a staggering amount of wealth was buried underground at the time of the previous Heavenly Khan’s death, then the quantity must be nothing less than extraordinary. It might even include cultivation resources he could make use of.

Having pursued cultivation for some time, Qi Tian knew all too well the importance of cultivation resources. Now that there was a potential opportunity to acquire a large amount of these resources, he did not want to let it slip. Thus, he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give you a chance. Bu Jianerti, open up your sea of consciousness. I am going to place a Slave Mark in it.”

Relieved, Bu Jianerti quickly opened up his sea of consciousness, lifting the seal he had placed on it. Without much effort, Qi Tian placed the Slave Mark in Bu Jianerti’s sea of consciousness, bringing yet another Gold Core Realm master under his control.

Letting out a long sigh of relief, Bu Jianerti felt fortunate that his life was spared after such a harrowing experience. Bowing to Qi Tian, he said, “Master, would you allow Senior Gao to release me?”

Qi Tian glanced at Gao Jinmei, signaling her to free Bu Jianerti.

Gao Jinmei approached Bu Jianerti, removed the ropes binding him, unshackled his wrists and ankles, and moved her hand in front of his Dantian, confiscating the Rune that was suppressing his Gold Core.

Immediately, Bu Jianerti felt as though a huge burden was lifted off him. He promptly thanked Gao Jinmei. Despite being in the same position as her, both serving as Qi Tian’s Immortal Slaves, he was well aware of the hierarchy even among slaves, and that he was at the lowest rank. He not only had to refrain from holding grudges against Gao Jinmei for her actions today but also had to make an effort to get closer to her in the future.

Gao Jinmei went back to where she was standing before, turning a blind eye to Bu Jianerti’s flattering behavior. Deep down, she held him in contempt. She had the capacity to kill multiple people like Bu Jianerti – they were not in the same league.

Bu Jianerti took off his Storage Bag from his waist and presented it to Qi Tian with both hands, saying, “Master, my substantial assets are in this bag, along with the data related to the burial sites. I am offering everything to you and hope you accept it graciously.”

Qi Tian waved his hand, saying, “You don’t need to give me your Storage Bag. Now that you are my Immortal Slave, I’m not going to plunder your possessions excessively.”
