Chapter 1062 Lady Xiang When the Immortals heard Xu Jiaqi's words, a look of disgust appeared on their faces, almost as though they'd accidentally swallowed a live fly. "Hm?" Xu Jiaqi suddenly noticed a certain figure in the distance, who appeared to be leaving the place. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have some important business to attend to." And without explaining any further, Xu Jiaqi disappeared from her spot and appeared in front of this individual she had been staring at. "Oh~!" This individual was surprised when Xu Jiaqi appeared before her like a ghost. "It's been a while, Lady Xiang." Xu Jiaqi said, her attitude towards this woman being the complete opposite of how she treats the others, almost as though they were friends. "Lady Xu? You really startled me just now! I thought I was under attack or something." Lady Xiang sighed. "Sorry, but I really needed to speak with you, and it looked like you were about to leave." "Oh? What do you want to talk to me about?" "Let's go somewhere more private, shall we?" Xu Jiaqi said. Lady Xiang nodded, "I have a villa nearby. Let's go there." Xu Jiaqi turned to look at Senior Bai and said to him, "You can return without me." "I understand. If you need anything, call me." Senior Bai didn't want to linger around any longer due to the people there and disappeared almost immediately, almost as though he'd been teleported away. 'As I thought, she's going to get that soul cultivation technique for him… It's not going to be cheap even for someone like her…' Senior Bai sighed inwardly as the image of Lady Xiang's face appeared in his head. Sometime later, Xu Jiaqi sat down with Lady Xiang in her villa. "I will get straight to the point, Lady Xiang. I would like to purchase your soul cultivation technique." Xu Jiaqi said to her. "..." Lady Xiang slowly lowered the tea in her grasp and stared at Xu Jiaqi with a baffled look on her face. "I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you properly just now. Can you repeat it just in case?" Lady Xiang said a moment later. "Your soul cultivation technique. I need it." A stiff smile appeared on Lady Xiang's face when she realized that she hadn't heard wrong just now, and she asked in a dumbfounded voice, "Why do you want my technique? And you should know that this technique isn't for sale, and even if it were for sale, it cannot be learned by just anyone. Furthermore, we both know that you're not suitable for this soul cultivation technique, so why would you want to learn it?" "Who said anything about using it for myself? I am giving it to someone." Xu Jiaqi said. Lady Xiang only became even more baffled after hearing such words. "I owe him a great debt, and I promised to give him the best soul cultivation technique that I can find. If you're not willing to sell it to me, then I can only find another soul cultivation technique for him." "This person… Is he your lover?" Lady Xiang couldn't help but ask, her eyes filled with curiosity. "No. He's just a junior." Xu Jiaqi calmly said. "Is that so? How boring. Anyways, I doubt this person is capable of learning my soul cultivation technique, since only someone born with immense soul strength could possibly learn it. In the entire Nine Heavens— No, in the last ten million years, only three people have been capable of learning this technique, myself being one of them." "You won't know it until you try it. This junior… he's immensely talented and has the potential to surpass us. Please." Lady Xiang narrowed her eyes on Xu Jiaqi, who had her head slightly lowered in a pleading manner. "I have never seen you care so much about someone before, Lady Xu. If you tell me why you're going through all of this trouble, even lowering your head and begging me, I will consider it." Xu Jiaqi took a deep breath and said, "I can tell you under one condition. You will not say a word about his identity to anyone. In fact, you'll act as though he doesn't even exist." "I accept your condition." Xu Jiaqi nodded and said, "This junior was the one who found my father's legacy— the God of War's Astral Arts. In exchange for it, I promised to give him a soul cultivation technique." Lady Xiang raised an eyebrow after hearing this information. "That's it? I was anticipating something more exciting… Also, he's just a junior who managed to stumble upon your ancestor's legacy. You could've easily forced him to give you the legacy without needing to make such a promise— at least that's what most people in the gathering today would've done if they were in your shoes." "Are you looking down on me? As if I would do something that low and despicable." Xu Jiaqi sneered. Lady Xiang smiled, "I am just joking." "Are you going to help me or what? I've already lowered my head for you. If you think I will do it for a second time…" A serious expression appeared on Lady Xiang's face as she spoke, "Since we're friends and I do owe you a favor, I will give this junior a chance to learn my soul cultivation technique. However, this doesn't mean it will be free. Whether or not this junior is capable of learning the technique or not, you'll still have to pay." "How much do you want?" Xu Jiaqi asked. "Who said anything about money? I want you to do something for me." A cold smile appeared on Lady Xiang's face. Xu Jaiqi frowned, "What are you plotting?" "You see, a certain group of people have been harassing me and my family recently. I'm sure you've heard about them. I would love to deal with them myself, but I do not have the capability. If you want me to give this junior a chance to learn my soul cultivation technique, you will have to help me 'deal with' these people. Do you understand what I am saying?" The frown on Xu Jiaqi's face deepened. "You want me to destroy the Sky Whales faction?" she mumbled in a dumbfounded voice.
