My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 411 - 408 Great Demon

"It's true!" Immortal Master Huang's voice came from inside the gourd, "The Human Emperor and I truly are sworn brothers!"

"I don't believe it." Gao Fei shook his head.

"Young brother, do you know what my cultivation is?" Immortal Master Huang asked.

"What cultivation?"

"Transcendance Tribulation Stage!"

"You're at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage? What a joke. If you're such a master, how could you be trapped inside a gourd?"

"I've just said it, I encountered an ambush from an enemy, was severely injured, my strength greatly diminished, and then I was betrayed by Cao Buwei…" Immortal Master Huang sighed sorrowfully, "The gourd imprisoning me looks ordinary, but it's actually very strange. It can actually bind my soul and suppress my strength.

I've thought of many ways but can't escape… Young brother, please have mercy, let me out, and I'll keep my word. As soon as I can get out, I'll give you one hundred thousand amethysts! No, two hundred thousand amethysts! I mean what I say!"

Gao Fei habitually touched his smooth chin, "I can let you out, but…"

"But what? Just state your terms, and as long as it's within my capability, I agree to all," Immortal Master Huang said hastily.

"First give me the amethysts, then I'll let you out," Gao Fei said.

"That doesn't seem quite appropriate... What if... What if you take the amethysts and don't let me out? Won't I have made a huge loss?"

"Then give me half, that should be fine, right? Give me half first, and after you get out, pay the other half. What a fair deal. If you refuse again, it means you have something to hide, and the deal is off."

"The amethysts are on me; you have to let me out before I can give them to you," Immortal Master Huang protested.

"Then there's no way around it," Gao Fei spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "That's that, I have things to do, so I'm leaving." Gao Fei turned to walk away.

"Don't go! Don't go!" Immortal Master Huang became anxious, "Let's discuss this further…"

"There's nothing to discuss," Gao Fei's tone was decisive, "Give me half the amethysts first, then I'll let you out."

"The key issue is... I can't give them to you right now..."

"That's your problem. You figure it out yourself."

"Okay then... I know Cao Buwei has secretly hoarded some amethysts; they're hidden right here in this basement..."

"Oh?" Gao Fei's eyes lit up, "Where are they?"

"Right next to the gourd…" Under Immortal Master Huang's guidance, Gao Fei found the amethysts Cao Buwei had hidden.

Gao Fei counted them carefully, "Only a hundred and twenty pieces, not enough."

"Consider it a preliminary gift. Take it for now, and I'll repay you handsomely after I'm free," Immortal Master Huang said.

"Let's end the discussion for today; we'll chat another day."

With a gesture, Gao Fei made the small gourd fly towards him, "Snap!" Gao Fei caught the small gourd, it was cold to the touch and heftier than expected. After examining it for a few moments, Gao Fei stored the small gourd away and then leapt back to the surface.

...

"Master!"

Chen San and Liu Qing approached, "We've searched the front and central courtyards several times and didn't find any amethysts."

"I've found them," Gao Fei revealed a storage bag with a flip of his wrist.

"Found them?"

"A total of a hundred and twenty pieces. We'll divide it equally among the three of us, forty pieces each."

"That won't do! These amethysts were found by you, Master; they have nothing to do with us, we shouldn't take them," Chen San and Liu Qing quickly shook their heads.

"Take it," Gao Fei insisted, pushing the amethysts into Chen San and Liu Qing's hands, "You've both had a tough time following me; it's only right and reasonable for me to compensate you."

"Master…"

"It's getting late, let's head back quickly."

Giving away eighty amethysts at once did hurt Gao Fei a bit, but he didn't regret it! Using eighty amethysts to secure the heartfelt loyalty of Chen San and Liu Qing was worth it.

...

After returning to the military camp.

Gao Fei took out the little gourd: "Hey, Immortal Master Huang, can you hear me speaking?"

"Yes, yes, I can hear you," Immortal Master Huang responded. "Young brother, just let me out. I'll definitely make it worth your while."

"You just said... you're a big shot?"

"Right."

"And you also said that you and the Emperor are sworn brothers? The Emperor has to call you 'big brother' when he sees you?"

"Right."

"Everything you said is true?"

"Right."

"I'll go and verify this. If I find out you're lying, huh, don't blame me for turning heartless. I'll throw you straight into the latrine to spend your life there," Gao Fei said coldly.

"How will you verify it?"

"The lord of Chaotic Wind City is on good terms with me. I'll have him write a letter to the Emperor, asking if he has any sworn brothers."

"...Isn't that unnecessary?"

"It's necessary! Very necessary!" Gao Fei nodded, "I must find out if what you're saying is true or false!"

"Young brother, you're too suspicious... that's not good..."

"Being cautious doesn't hurt."

"It's really not necessary."

"I'm going to find the lord of Chaotic Wind City now and have him contact the Emperor as soon as possible," Gao Fei stood up and headed outside. "As long as it's confirmed that what you said is true, I'll let you out. Otherwise, if you lied to me... I'll throw you into the latrine to spend your life there."

"..." Immortal Master Huang fell silent.

Gao Fei stuffed the little gourd into his bosom and swaggered outside.

One step, two steps, three steps...

"Alright! I admit... I told a lie, I deceived you! I'm not sworn brothers with the Emperor, I don't even know him," Immortal Master Huang said listlessly.

"You've got some nerve, daring to deceive me!" Gao Fei raged. "I'll throw you into the latrine right now!"

"Don't! Don't throw me!" Immortal Master Huang kept apologizing, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you on purpose. I just wanted... to elevate my status, so you'd release me quickly."

"So that means the business about the amethyst is also fake?" Gao Fei hummed.

"No, that's not fake. I'm quite wealthy; I can come up with several hundred thousand amethysts," Immortal Master Huang hastily said. "I swear to heaven, I'm absolutely not lying this time."

"I won't believe you again."

"Really! I'm not deceiving you!"

"You're just a liar, a braggart of a liar!" Gao Fei lifted his foot and walked outside. "From now on, you can live in the latrine."

Before long, Gao Fei arrived at the latrine and was greeted by a foul smell as he entered.

"Hmm, this place isn't bad. You can settle down here," Gao Fei said as he took out the little gourd, ready to throw it down.

"Don't! Don't throw me!!!" Immortal Master Huang was terrified. "I'm from the Demon Race! A Great Demon at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage... you can't treat me like this..."

Gao Fei was startled, "What did you say? You're from the Demon Race? Are you trying to deceive me again!"

"No, I'm not deceiving you! I'm telling the truth! I really am from the Demon Race!" Immortal Master Huang exclaimed urgently.
