Chapter 25: Mastery of Firearms, Water-Repelling Talismans
"I really, really don't want to be a puppet being manipulated anymore, and I don't want to be a prostitute anymore. I just like men, what did I do wrong...?"
As she spoke, Nalisa suddenly began to sob.
This scene, with the beautiful woman shedding tears, moved Officer Ryan, who was standing nearby, to pity.
"Li, why don't you help her out? She did give you money, after all..."
The main thing is that Renne understood that Nalisha is now a woman, a real woman, and she doesn't even have that thing anymore, so there's no question of taking it out to compare sizes.
It's just that Nalisha used to be a man. As long as you can get over that in your mind, she's an absolutely beautiful woman.
Well, at least Li Xuan won't be able to get past this hurdle.
But for Rennes, if he can't see it, then it doesn't exist.
What does what happened in the previous life have to do with this life?
This is almost no different from reincarnation.
"Yes, if the money is right, it's not a problem."
Li Xuan nodded and agreed with a smile.
For him, as long as he gets paid, and it's not too heinous, he'll do it.
"How much do you want? Is 100,000 enough?" Nalisa tentatively asked, offering a number.
"How much?" Renn exclaimed in shock.
He just casually asks for $100,000?
Is this line of work really that lucrative?
"Ten thousand it is! Let's do it!"
Li Xuan was afraid that Nalisha would change her mind, so he immediately called out.
He then added, "Of course, this is just to help you remove the other person's control, and you'd better never run into him again in your life. Stay away from him, otherwise if you do encounter him, he can still harm you."
"If you need to remove his price, then this number is far from enough."
If you just remove the connection between the two and the spells the other party cast on Nalisa, then $100,000 would be an absolute steal.
But if it means eliminating the other party, then this deal would be too unprofitable.
Who knows what the other party's strength is, or whether I can defeat them? If I try to steal a chicken but end up losing the rice instead, that would be terrible.
"How much money would it cost to get rid of him..." Nalisa asked hurriedly.
Everyone understands the principle of eliminating the root of the problem, so she naturally wouldn't want to be controlled anymore, even if the possibility was extremely low.
"Starting at ten million US dollars."
Li Xuan casually stated a number.
Nalisa froze on the spot, then said, "Then just help me break free from the control..."
"One hundred thousand US dollars, right, Father Li? I'll transfer the money to you right now!"
As he spoke, he took out his phone, intending to transfer the money.
In reality, transferring such a large sum of money is very troublesome, but it doesn't matter at this moment.
"OK, as long as the money's there, I'll crush any monster you want!"
Li Xuan truly dared not speak of gods and Buddhas in this world; he was genuinely afraid.
If it were his previous life, he wouldn't be afraid of ordinary gods or Buddhas, or even the Jade Emperor.
In reality, the reason Li Xuan dared to take this job was because the other party couldn't find out that it was him. Even if they could, the other party's methods were probably not sophisticated, otherwise they wouldn't have used such low-level methods to make money.
After receiving the money, and with the customer's best interests in mind, Li Xuan took Nalisa out of the bar.
Ryan quickly followed, and the three of them headed to Li Xuan's Paranormal Investigation Agency in Chinatown.
I thought I was just enjoying life, but I never expected to encounter something like this.
Halfway there, Li Xuan's daily settlement was triggered again.
[Today's Settlement]
Acts of protecting life: Shooting a predatory animal that preys on a young child, killing it instantly. This killing is not a merit, this protection is not a fault. The gun is a weapon, the person is a righteous person—using a weapon to protect life, the merit or fault is neither increased nor decreased.
The merits of spiritual practice: In quiet meditation, enlightenment strikes suddenly. A hundred days of diligent practice lead to complete understanding. This is sudden enlightenment, attainable only through diligent practice and a state of mind conducive to spiritual progress.
[Settlement Rewards]
Superpower: Firearms Proficiency (Passive - Mastering any firearm is like using your own arm)
Cultivation Level: One Hundred Days of Cultivation (Gained Through Sudden Enlightenment)
[Master's Commentary]
Killing doesn't absolve you of karmic debt, but protecting life doesn't necessarily accumulate merit. A gun can kill, but it can also kill the heart—is your heart still at peace?
"???"
Three question marks instantly appeared in Li Xuan's mind, not because the rewards from the settlement shocked him.
On the contrary, it was quite ordinary; apart from feeling that his magical power had increased several times over, there wasn't much difference.
The main thing is the master's comments, which has never happened before in previous settlements.
This time, however, the patriarch's commentary appeared.
Patriarch?
Which patriarch?
The Three Pure Ones?
"Could it be that the system is...?"
"It can't be that bad..."
"Maybe..."
Li Xuan's mind was racing, trying to figure out what was going on.
But he knew he probably couldn't figure it out.
With so little information, it's impossible to make any inferences; all we can do is speculate.
Just thinking about this gave Li Xuan a headache.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I must never offend the patriarch again."
After silently paying homage to his ancestor, Li Xuan looked at Nalisha in front of him.
He originally just wanted to trick Renn, but he didn't expect the woman to actually say that she was a man and that she had met a mage.
According to his understanding, there is a practice in Southeast Asia called Yin-Yang Black Magic, which can turn men into women.
But this is just a scene from a movie; who knows what the real situation is?
But it's a fool not to make money when you can; you should make money if you can.
That's 100,000 US dollars!
Back at the office, Li Xuan had Nalisa lie down on the sofa.
Even when she lay down, her graceful figure remained almost perfectly preserved.
Nalisa only needs to turn slightly to the side to see everything clearly.
"Truly, it presents a different view from every angle, a different peak depending on the distance and elevation..."
Looking at the beautiful scenery before him, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"What? Lee, what are you talking about, a spell? That's so cool!"
Upon hearing this, Ryan exclaimed in surprise.
Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Of course! I need to recite the incantation before casting the spell!"
As he spoke, he pulled out an exorcism talisman from his pocket, began chanting incantations, and then flicked his wrist.
He slapped Nalisha's chest, and a wave of fleshy sensation washed over him. Li Xuan couldn't help but swallow hard.
However, contrary to his expectations, nothing happened.
Li Xuan frowned, then circulated his magical power.
boom--
The talisman spontaneously combusted.
"Wow!"
Even though he had seen similar scenes before, Ryan was still shocked.
He watched in shock as Li Xuan threw the burning talisman into a bowl that had been prepared beforehand.
The talisman paper does not extinguish when it comes into contact with water; it continues to burn in the water.
Without a trace of ash, it seemed to have vanished into thin air in the water.
Li Xuan handed the bowl to Raine and said with a smile, "Just feed her this water and she'll be fine."
"This is so cool! This talisman even repels water when it burns! Is this talisman water? It's amazing!" Raine licked his lips, somewhat wanting to drink the water.
But the thought of this thing being worth $100,000 made him suppress his excitement.
