Xuanhuang Trading Company Branch in Glacier City.
At this moment, Zhao Wu Hui said to Qin Chang Ge, "Reporting to the Chief Supervisor, two of the remaining four arrows are in the prestigious Ji family."
Upon hearing this, Qin Changge raised an eyebrow and asked, "What kind of power is the prestigious Ji family?"
Zhao Wu Hui explained, "The Ji family is one of the five great families of the Great Xia Dynasty. A family that is considered prestigious is one that has been passed down for more than a thousand years."
Upon hearing this, Qin Changge was stunned.
An immortal family, they are even more difficult to deal with than the imperial court.
Two of the seven arrows of the Demon Nail are in the prestigious Ji family, which is quite a troublesome matter.
Qin Changge raised an eyebrow and said, "If it were the Ji family, gathering the other arrows wouldn't be difficult. Why is that?"
Qin Changge thought for a moment. Perhaps the other party had only obtained the Seven Demonic Nails by chance and did not intend to collect them all. If that was the case, then Qin Changge still had a chance.
With this in mind, Qin Changge paid ten million spirit stones and then left the Xuanhuang Trading Company branch.
Qin Changge returned to the Golden Saber Guard branch and said to Yue Chenfeng, Qin Hanyue, and the others, "I have found out the whereabouts of the remaining two arrows. Now I need to go to the prestigious Ji family. You wait for me here."
Yue Chenfeng, Qin Hanyue, and the others were all somewhat surprised to hear this!
The Ji family is a prestigious family, one of the five great families of the Great Xia Dynasty!
If Qin Changge weren't the commander of the Golden Knife Guard, he wouldn't even be able to get through the door.
"Brother Changge, you go ahead and we'll wait for you here!"
"If we're going to the Ji family, I think we should bring some nice gifts. You can't refuse someone who's smiling."
Clearly, Yue Chenfeng and Qin Hanyue were worried that Qin Changge wouldn't even be able to get into the Ji family.
Qin Changge hesitated for a moment, after all, the Ji family, one of the five great families of the Great Xia Dynasty, was indeed very famous and held a high position.
……
Qin Changge used a teleportation array to travel to the place where the Ji family was located—Qingluan Continent, which was the home of the prestigious Ji family.
After making some inquiries, Qin Changge quickly arrived at the gate of the Ji family.
The prestigious Ji family occupies an entire city. The whole family is like a city, with markets, restaurants, and everything else. And all the people in it are members of the Ji family!
"It's practically a country within a country," Qin Changge couldn't help but exclaim.
Qin Changge arrived at the gate of the Ji family and said to the guards at the gate, "Qin Changge, the commander of the Golden Knife Guard of the Great Xia Dynasty, has come to pay his respects to the head of the Ji family."
It should be noted that if Qin Changge were not the Grand Supervisor, an ordinary Heavenly God Realm cultivator would not even be able to enter the Ji family's gate.
However, the title of "Golden Knife Guard Commander" is indeed effective.
After Qin Changge finished speaking, the expressions of the two Ji family guards at the door changed.
Then, the guard respectfully clasped his hands in a fist and bow to Qin Changge: "Please wait a moment, Lord Supervisor, I will inform him immediately."
One of the guards quickly used his communication ring to communicate with an important figure in the Ji family, and then received the important figure's order.
The guards at the door bowed to Qin Changge and said, "Please come in with us, Lord Supervisor. The Patriarch is waiting for you."
"Okay." Qin Changge nodded.
Qin Changge didn't mind that the Ji family head didn't come out to greet him personally. After all, if it were the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Ji family head would have come out to greet him, which would have been considered an act of equality.
Qin Changge is currently only the supervisor of the Golden Knife Guards, so for him to be allowed into the inner chambers is already considered a great honor.
Soon, Qin Changge was led by the guards at the entrance to a magnificent hall. The hall was decorated with dragons and phoenixes, and was adorned with gold and jade carvings. It was extremely luxurious and no different from the imperial palace.
A family that has stood for a thousand years, a family that has remained standing for a thousand years—that carries more weight than the imperial court.
Qin Changge sat for a while, and soon saw the arrival of the Ji family head.
This was a fair-skinned, beardless middle-aged man who looked very shrewd. His face was calm and composed, as if nothing could stir any emotion in him.
This was Qin Changge's first impression of a man who had seen much of the world, remained calm in the face of adversity, and handled everything with ease.
At this moment, the fair-skinned, beardless middle-aged man smiled at Qin Changge and said, "I am Ji Xuan, the head of the Ji family. I greet you, Chief Supervisor."
Qin Changge clasped his hands in greeting and said, "My name is Qin Changge." Ji Xuan sat in the main seat and looked at Qin Changge, who was sitting in the guest seat, and asked, "May I ask what brings you here from afar, Lord Supervisor?"
Qin Changge clasped his hands and said, "This is not an official matter; it is my personal request. I would like to purchase two of the Seven Demonic Nails from your Ji family."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan remained calm, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "I've never heard of the Seven Arrows of Demonic Nails. I'll send someone down to inquire about it."
Qin Changge nodded and said, "Okay."
Soon the Ji family steward went down, and not long after, he calmly returned with two arrows.
The Ji family steward reported: "Reporting to the patriarch, these were obtained by a junior member of our Ji family by chance and were casually placed in a storage ring. After some twists and turns, we finally managed to bring the two arrows back."
The head of the Ji family smiled and said, "It's good that you brought them back."
Then Ji Xuan, the head of the Ji family, said to Qin Changge, "Lord Supervisor, these two arrows are the Ji family's gift to you. We hope you will give us your guidance in the future."
Qin Changge said with some surprise, "These seven Demonic Nails have two arrows, each worth about ten million high-grade spirit stones. The two arrows are worth twenty million high-grade spirit stones. Are you going to give them to me as a gift?"
Ji Xuan, the head of the Ji family, smiled and said, "No amount of money can buy your kindness, Lord Supervisor. Please don't find these two arrows too simple."
Qin Changge sighed. As expected of the Ji family, a prestigious family with a thousand-year history, perhaps these twenty million high-grade spirit stones were no different from two cents in Ji Xuan's eyes.
Qin Changge accepted the two arrows and said, "Then I will gladly accept them."
"Patriarch Ji, please wait. I will be leaving now."
Ji Xuan nodded.
Qin Changge left the Ji family, and then felt somewhat sentimental.
As expected of a family with a thousand-year history, their demeanor and cultivation are exceptional, making them very comfortable to be around.
Of course, Qin Changge did not forget that he was the commander of the Golden Knife Guard. If he were an ordinary person, he would never have met Ji Xuan, nor would he have received such a polite attitude from Ji Xuan.
Qin Changge didn't think much of it; in short, he had obtained the two arrows.
One is an arrow of sorrow, the other an arrow of fear.
In this way, Qin Changge has obtained six of the Seven Arrows of Demonic Nails, and is only missing the last one, the Arrow of Panic.
Qin Changge returned to the Golden Blade Guard branch in Glacier City. At this moment, Yue Chenfeng said, "Brother Changge, the Xuanhuang Trading Company branch has already delivered the other three arrows."
Qin Changge looked at the three arrows in Yue Chenfeng's hand, then at her own two arrows, and with Lu Wushuang's arrow, there were a total of six arrows.
In this way, only one arrow is needed to complete the Seven Arrows of the Demon Nail.
Qin Changge murmured, "Where is the last arrow?"
At this moment, Yun Wuxin spoke up, "Lord Supervisor, perhaps we could offer a bounty."
Upon hearing this, Qin Changge raised an eyebrow.
Yue Chenfeng, Qin Hanyue, and the others standing to the side nodded and said, "That's right. This last arrow wouldn't be of much value to anyone else, but it's priceless to us."
"If we offer a price that the other party cannot refuse, then we can obtain the last arrow of the Seven Arrows of the Demon Nail."
Qin Changge nodded upon hearing this, but also had some concerns.
You should know that some people don't care about money. For example, the Ji family this time. If it weren't for Qin Changge's position as the supervisor, they probably wouldn't be able to buy two of the seven Demonic Nails.
Because the Ji family was not short of money at all, they kept the two arrows, the Seven Arrows of the Demonic Nails, as toys and had no intention of selling them.
Qin Changge said, "Alright, let's try offering a bounty."
……
Qin Changge found Zhao Wuhui, the manager of the Xuanhuang Trading Company branch, and said, "Help me post a message that I want to offer a reward for the last arrow of the Seven Demon Nails."
Zhao Wu Hui nodded and said, "Alright, may I ask, Lord Supervisor, what price would you like to offer as a reward for this last arrow?"
Qin Changge thought for a moment and said, "One hundred million high-grade spirit stones."
