Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 1137: Chapter 400: Clues to Taming the Griffin, the Greedy Manager Qian (8600)_3

Moments later, the female manager seemed to have made up her mind.

"Sir, it’s against the regulations of our Money Shop."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing felt a bit disappointed.

However, right then, the woman changed her tune.

"But... I have a little business of my own and would like to discuss it with you."

"Would you be interested?"

Cao Xing listened, a hint of a smile appearing on his face.

Because this meant that she would most likely agree.

Cao Xing said, "Of course, I’m interested."

Upon hearing this, the female manager chuckled lightly and said, "Alright, then please follow me to the second floor for a detailed discussion."

Having said that, she had already stood up and was heading out the door.

Cao Xing followed behind her, stepping onto the wooden staircase nearby.

The female manager walked ahead, her tight cheongsam outlining an elegant curve along her back.

With every step, her waist twisted slightly, her hips swaying side to side, catching eyes.

Soon, they arrived at the second floor of the Money Shop.

The female manager reached one of the room doors and pushed it open directly.

"Sir, please follow me inside."

"However, your companions will need to wait outside."

Cao Xing nodded and then instructed, "Eliza, Renice, stay here and wait."

He had now reached Level 50, Full Level.

As the saying goes, skilled people have boldness, and with his ability, he wasn’t afraid of the woman doing anything to him.

He then followed her into the room.

A woman’s room appeared before him.

It emitted the scent of perfume.

In addition, there was a wooden vanity with a copper mirror on top.

On the other side was a spacious bed.

As the door closed gently.

The smile on the woman’s face disappeared.

Her expression turned cold as frost, her eyes filled with indifference.

Completely different from the kind demeanor she showed outside just moments ago.

The woman spoke slowly, "I can help you with this matter."

"But you need to give me enough benefit."

Cao Xing wasn’t surprised; this woman’s change of face was faster than flipping pages.

After all, she had a hidden identity.

She was a Black Robed Priest of the Light Church.

Without some ability, she couldn’t have hidden in Merlin City for so long.

Cao Xing asked, "How much do you need?"

The mature woman before him thought for a moment and then said, "I will help you exchange these notes for Crowns, and you need to give me a certain percentage."

"Let’s go with a seventy-thirty split."

Cao Xing frowned, "I get seventy, you get thirty?"

The woman shook her head, "No, I get seventy, you get thirty."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing almost burst out laughing, "You really are greedy."

To which the female manager sighed, "I have no choice; I’m taking a risk doing this kind of thing."

"Accidentally, I might lose my livelihood."

"So I have to scoop up some profit to ensure my future life, right?"

Cao Xing shook his head, "You’re asking for too much."

"I reject this deal."

With that, Cao Xing was about to leave.

Even if this woman wasn’t willing to cooperate, he could simply go to another Money Shop and find other managers to cooperate.

Upon hearing this, the mature woman sneered, "I’m afraid you cannot refuse."

"If you leave through that door today, the City Guard will likely come to arrest you."

Cao Xing, listening, said with interest, "Oh? Are you threatening me?"

"A Second Order like you, threatening me?"

"Do you realize, with a flick of my finger, I can crush you?"

He found it somewhat amusing.

This was as absurd as a female-oriented novel where a Foundation Establishment Cultivator threatens a Grand Completion being.

But the mature woman simply chuckled, "Of course, I know your power is formidable."

"But you can’t possibly attack me here."

"Because doing so would also land you a wanted notice in Merlin City."

"And besides, you’re carrying so many notes from the dead."

"If I report this to the Earl, what do you think he’ll do to you?"

Cao Xing frowned slightly.

The woman appeared to be unafraid.

She was convinced Cao Xing wouldn’t dare harm her here.

"You don’t have any other options now."

"I can take a step back, sixty-four split, how about that?"

Yet Cao Xing shook his head and said, "Not necessarily."

"Sarah, come out."

As the words fell, a figure silently appeared.

Sensing the lethal aura Sarah radiated, the female manager’s face instantly became a bit flustered.

Still, the woman knew this was a critical moment, and she mustn’t lose her composure.

"What are you planning, to kill me here?"

"I’ve told you, if you kill me here, you’ll be arrested by the City Guard as well!"

Cao Xing shook his head, "I certainly won’t kill you because I still need you to exchange money for me."

With that, he pulled out a peculiar scroll.

This female manager, having mixed in society for years, seemed to recognize what Cao Xing held!

Her matured face, initially shocked, now showed a disdainful look.

"You intend to enslave me with that scroll!"

"Give up, it’s impossible."

"As long as I keep up my mental defense, your scroll won’t succeed."

Such Slave Scrolls are quite similar to Pet Contract Scrolls.

Though both have a chance of success, that’s under the condition of weak resistance from the opponent.

Much like the Gryphons Cao Xing captured, given their high Level, they would rather die than submit.
