**550. Chapter 535: Agent, Slaying Gods, Blood River**
"Price!" Zhang Xiaofan looked at Acha and quickly asked, "What price do you need to make a move once? As long as I can resurrect Biyao, I am willing to accept any price!"
Acha looked at Zhang Xiaofan, then mockingly said to Lu Xueqi, who stood beside her with an indignant expression, "What, do you think I'm making things difficult for your little lover? You're just too timid and not ruthless enough. Instead of working so hard to save your Love Rival here, why not just destroy this broken bell and be done with it? Without her attachment, won't he be yours?"
As Acha spoke, she made a gesture as if to take the Joyful Union Bell. Lu Xueqi's face flushed red from Acha's words, but she stepped forward, blocking Acha. Facing Acha's teasing gaze, she shook her head firmly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Obsessed Lovers! I once saw a Monk who fell in love, but that guy was much more dedicated than you two!" Acha glanced at the two protecting the Joyful Union Bell. "Since you are both Reincarnator, you should know the saying, 'There is no Free Lunch' in this World! Back then, the Buddha recited scriptures for Anathapindika's family in Jetavana, ensuring the safety of the living and transcendence for the dead, and he asked for three dou and three sheng of gold grains. For me to personally make a move, to fight an Underworld Goddess of unknown depth for your woman, I need something in return, right?"
The Heavenly Court was never a charity organization. From the day they were chosen to join the Samsara Palace, the two of them knew this.
The Samsara Palace was more like a large mission release Platform. Reincarnator could accept missions based on the Platform, and after completing them, exchange them for Contribution Points based on the completion rate.
The Samsara Palace also took 70% of the Extra Income Reincarnator gained in the Cycle World! This was used for Teleportation Fees and Tax.
You take 70%, I take 30%. If Old Master Huang next door heard this, he'd definitely flip the table. But for this 30%, some people don't even have the opportunity to take it kneeling.
After discarding her biased view of the Heavenly Court, Lu Xueqi sometimes felt this method was actually quite fair.
However, Lu Xueqi blinked her eyes, thinking of the scenes she saw in the Bull Palace. You didn't say that in the Bull Palace.
In the Bull Palace, several Queens of Heaven acted as if a couple they shipped online had appeared before them. They held her hand and kept asking about her feelings for Junior Brother Xiaofan, even asking some very explicit private questions.
Seeing Acha asking for something in return, Lu Xueqi's gaze fell pleadingly on Rogue: Wasn't it you who was madly shipping her and Zhang Xiaofan in the Bull Palace? Marie was eating melon seeds, lying in Skye's arms and scrolling on a Tablet, seemingly not noticing Lu Xueqi's pleading gaze.
Good heavens, that's Acha! Although she arrived late, she's someone who dares to turn hostile and fight with a fierce old woman like Hela. Can't afford to provoke her, can't afford to provoke her.
Lu Xueqi had no choice but to turn her gaze towards Skye, but received a helpless look in return.
"Acha is the Emperor of Fengdu. If your friend's Two Souls and Six Spirits are indeed in the hands of the Netherworld Holy Mother, only she has the Authority and Ability to snatch your friend's Soul back!" Skye explained to Lu Xueqi.
Lu Xueqi had stayed in the Heavenly Court for several decades and was no longer as ignorant as when she first arrived. She clearly knew that the Emperor of Fengdu, even within the Heavenly Court's Divine-Immortal System, was one of that small group of people with high position and heavy authority.
She had guessed that Acha had some Origin, but she never expected her Background to be so great.
Acha's Temperament was a bit Scheming. Having been idle for thousands of years, her favorite thing to do was fool others, adding a bit of fun to her life in the Underworld.
She originally wanted to Prank this pair of Obsessed Lovers. For example, when resurrecting Biyao, with a shake of her hand, she could accidentally swap Biyao's Soul with Lu Xueqi's Soul.
Or, for example, requiring the Sacrifice of a Soul of a Loved One to get back Biyao's Two Souls and Six Spirits. She wanted to see how Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi would choose.
She loved watching these Grievances and Entanglements between Obsessed Lovers, especially when they acted it out in front of her personally. Wasn't this much more interesting than those Soap Operas?
Unfortunately, she still underestimated the degree to which Skye, Rogue, and the others enjoyed Watching Drama in such melodramatic plots, insisting on following them to the Zhu Xian World.
This action completely broke her Plan.
Zhang Xiaofan was completely unaware of the Cleaver Tribulation he had just passed through. Facing Acha's gaze, he gave a bitter smile and said, "I am completely alone. I don't know what kind of compensation the Imperial Lord desires. Even if I have to stake this Life, I will do my best to accomplish it!"
Zhang Xiaofan had also heard what Skye just said, knowing that this Woman who called herself Acha was actually the Emperor of Fengdu. While bowing, he addressed her as Imperial Lord.
Acha stared at Zhang Xiaofan for a while as if she had seen a rare Treasure, then said, "If I help your wife Return to Life, you must become my Agent. From now on, the Souls of any Living Being who dies by your hands will entirely belong to me!"
"Sister Skye, why does Sister Acha insist on them becoming her Agent?" Rogue rested her head on Skye's lap and rubbed her little head against her.
Ever since she learned that miraculous Daoist Technique from Tang Song, she could freely control the Mutant Ability on her Body that could absorb people's Vitality.
Among the few people, Rogue really liked clinging to Skye.
Skye looked seriously at Zhang Xiaofan. "Didn't expect this guy to be a Protagonist? Acha, you want to use him for Pioneering?"
Protagonist? Pioneering? Not only was Zhang Xiaofan stunned, but even Rogue, Gu Zi Yun, and the others were a bit confused.
Acha looked at Skye approvingly. "You are quite clever. This kid is Favored by Fortune/Destiny of his World, making him precisely the first choice for Pioneering..."
"Sister Skye, what do you mean? How can I not understand?" Rogue scratched her head.
"Protagonist means the main character in a Film, the main character around whom the story in a storybook revolves. The Protagonist of a World refers to a Son of Fortune/Destiny whose fate is intertwined. They always have Trouble, always have continuous misfortunes, Calamities always come looking for them, and they are always being plotted against, but they are always lucky enough not to die. They themselves may not be intelligent, and their Skill may not be extraordinary, but no matter what Trouble they encounter, they can turn misfortune into fortune. No matter how powerful the Enemy they encounter, the enemy inexplicably dies at the last moment for various reasons, while the Protagonist inexplicably resolves the Trouble and survives." Skye explained to the Crowd.
"In the Boss's words, for a World, a Protagonist is used to resolve Karma/Causality. Usually, the World Will will turn decades of accumulated Karma/Causality into Entwined Tribulations, and then find a Protagonist to untangle them one by one. This can Resolve the Tribulations all at once and easily allow the World to return to peace."
"So in the story of Zhu Xian, Zhang Xiaofan and Biyao are the Protagonists!" Rogue looked at Lu Xueqi, who was dressed in white like snow, then looked at the ordinary Zhang Xiaofan, and nodded as if understanding but not quite.
"As for Pioneering..." Skye cast her Gaze towards Acha, asking for her Opinion.
"What's there to hide!?" Acha said domineeringly. "Pioneering means having you explore those unknown World for me!"
"Isn't that the same as being a Reincarnator?" Zhang Xiaofan was a bit confused.
