Their commission was suspicious.

"So expensive?"

"So what if it's expensive? After all, the lives of the Cloud Cavalry are more important, aren't they?" Chen Luo smiled.

“It’s never good to get something for nothing. You know, kindness can turn into enmity. So you should just tell me the cost price, and I’ll see if Luofu can compensate me a little.” Jing Yuan felt a little guilty.

"Oh, the cost of an Erosion Gold Coin is about 1.5 Paradise Gold Coins."

"The cost is 1.5 Paradise Coins? You dare to sell it for 500-1000 Paradise Coins? Aren't you robbing people?"

“You don’t understand. This Corruption Coin is not for sale. If used properly, one Corruption Coin can seal one to three powerful experts of the Yanqing level. You can’t buy it even if you want to,” Chen Luo said.

"..." Jing Yuan was somewhat tempted.

If what Chen Luo said is true, and a single Corrupted Gold Coin can seal Yan Qing, who is 1 to 3 times stronger, then the Corrupted Gold Coin is indeed worth the price.

"For sale?"

"Not for sale."

"Tsk."

"If you're really interested in the Erosion Coin's ability to suppress the Demonic Yin Body, I can release a Cloud Cavalry Marching Edition of the Erosion Coin, stripping it of its functions and reducing the cost from 1.5 Paradise Coins to 1.25 Paradise Coins. I'll sell it to you for 10 Paradise Coins. How about that?"

"Isn't this price reduction too much?" The cost difference is only 0.25 Paradise Coins, but the price difference is more than 50 times.

Jingyuan silently praised Chen Luo's conscience.

Perhaps Jing Yuan forgot that even so, Chen Luo could still earn nearly 10 times the profit.

"You think the price is too low? Then let's set it at 20."

"That's not what I meant. Ten Paradise Coins will do," Jing Yuan said with a dry cough.

"However, there is something I need to remind you. This castrated version of the Corruption Coin is only used for military campaigns to absorb the negative emotions generated by the violent fluctuations during campaigns, in order to prevent the emergence of demonic possession. The side effects are quite significant."

"What side effects?"

"After a battle, morale drops to zero because anger and murderous intent are considered negative emotions."

“This…” Jing Yuan frowned upon hearing this.

This side effect is indeed serious for the Immortal Boat Cloud Riders.

In military campaigns, morale is paramount. Without morale, how can you possibly win a battle?

Moreover, it is not even suitable for civilian use, because a large number of non-civilians flood into the Immortal Ship every day. If the people of the Immortal Ship are so good-natured that they are unwilling to argue, Jing Yuan dares not even imagine how much they would suffer.

Based on this, the stripped-down version of the corrosive gold coin that Chen Luo mentioned may only be suitable as a war reserve.

Use this stripped-down version of the Corrupted Coin when the soldier is about to lose control and transform into a demonic being, then immediately remove him from the battlefield.

Aside from that, no matter how you use it, this stripped-down version of the Corrupted Coins seems to do more harm than good.

However, this thing might be useful for interrogation.

"Also, the used Corrupted Gold Coins can be recycled for one Paradise Gold Coin," Chen Luo said.

"It can be recycled? But since it can only be exchanged for one Paradise Gold Coin, why not just eat this Corrupted Gold Coin? That would save on logistics and turnover." Jing Yuan laughed.

Jing Yuan knew that Chen Luo would definitely have a use for the corroded gold coins. Although Jing Yuan knew that if Chen Luo wanted to, he could treat the entire Immortal Ship Alliance as a bunch of韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting others), even though Chen Luo was making a lot of money now, he wasn't making a huge profit, which was already quite humane.

But Jingyuan still really wanted to see Chen Luo's expression when he was caught red-handed.

"Absolutely not."

As Jing Yuan expected, Chen Luo did indeed become somewhat agitated after hearing Jing Yuan's words.

"Oh? But once we buy these Corrupted Gold Coins, they belong to us, so why can't we eat them?"

"...Jingyuan, do you know the most fundamental reason why the Corrosion Gold Coin can suppress the Demonic Yin Body?"

"What is it? Isn't it because it looks similar to Paradise Coins?"

"...No, it's because compared to the darkness hidden within the corrosive gold coin, the Demonic Yin Body is nothing!"

"If you're still not giving up, you can try finding someone to test it out. If the other person is from the Immortal Ship, even if he's only a few decades old, and after consuming the already used corroded gold coin, he won't immediately fall into the demonic body, I'll take your surname."

"The reason why the Corruption Coins can suppress the Demonic Yin Body is that the Corruption Coins are more [dirty] than the abundant evil power contained in the Demonic Yin Body. It is estimated that as long as 1 Corruption Coins are collected and thrown into the water source, it will be enough to induce the Demonic Yin Body of the entire Immortal Ship."

After all, the Demonic Body is merely a side effect of the blessing from the God of Abundance, while the Corruption Coin is a product of the combination of the two SSS-level talents, Corruption and Domination.

"You dare to let us use something so dangerous?" Jing Yuan was so shocked that he opened his eyes wide.

“You don’t have to. And given the stability of the corroded gold coins, as long as you don’t actually put them in your mouths to chew and swallow, even if you accidentally ingest them, they won’t release any toxins. So don’t worry.”

"...I'll have the Cloud Cavalry collect the used Corrupted Gold Coins. By the way, what do you plan to do with the collected Corrupted Gold Coins?"

“Take out the excess darkness from the Corrupted Gold Coins, make more Corrupted Gold Coins, and then sell them to you at 10 times the price.”

"..."

In that instant, Jing Yuan felt an urge to kill Chen Luo.

Okay, okay, is this how you play it?

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Bring your healing team and the prepared Corruption Coins. If nothing unexpected happens, the final battle will begin in a few hours." Jing Yuan took a deep breath to calm himself down and slowly walked to the window.

With a major battle imminent, the faster the reinforcements arrive, the better, as early coordination and teamwork will improve.

If they are only "medical and logistical" personnel, it won't dampen the enthusiasm of the Yunqi Army.

"Oh, you mean this? I had my men stationed in the Cloud Cavalry yesterday. They're already part of the Cloud Cavalry as temporary units, and your men have long been equipped with the stripped-down version of Corruption Gold Coins. If you don't believe me, check your own pockets. You should have one too."

"???" Jing Yuan touched his pocket and actually found a pitch-black Paradise Gold Coin.

At this moment, after being reminded by Chen Luo, a long-buried memory slowly begins to unfold...

"Jingyuan, look over here."

Upon hearing the voice, Jing Yuan instinctively turned around.

"Click!" The clear sound of the camera shutter startled Jing Yuan awake.

"...What exactly are you after?" Jing Yuan, who had been holding back for so long, finally couldn't take it anymore.

"Yes, that's right. I wanted to see that expression on your face right now, a mixture of three parts bewilderment, three parts doubt, three parts surprise, and 91 parts disbelief. This light cone should fetch a good price. Aha should be very interested."

"Tsk."

"Jingyuan, don't look like you want to hit someone. I've already given you so much benefit, what's wrong with letting me have some fun? You haven't lost anything. Come on, smile again..."

"..."

Jing Yuan finally understood why both his silver and golden selves had adopted a "laissez-faire" expression when facing Chen Luo.

She was probably angered by Chen Luo.

Tired? Let's destroy it, quick!

Chapter 1865 Jing Yuan: Chen Luo, go defeat Destruction... It's the Destruction Envoy, not the Star God!

"Are you leaving?" Chen Luo asked, looking at Jing Yuan who had stood up.

“Yes, you’ve prepared all the necessary pre-battle preparations. Now we’re just waiting for the train regiment members to resolve the trouble with the Construction Bureau and head to the Pill Refining Bureau. I suppose the battle there is about to begin?” Jing Yuan’s gaze was fixed straight ahead, but his eyes were unfocused.

At this moment, Jing Yuan was somewhat relieved that Chen Luo hadn't actually discussed everything with him before making the various preparations.

For example, the healing support team and those special corrosive gold coins.

As the saying goes, speed is of the essence in war. Now that war is about to begin, making personnel adjustments at this point could easily create unnecessary trouble.

Of course, it seems that Jingyuan doesn't have the final say on when to equip the equipment.

Or rather, even Jing Yuan himself was kept in the dark, only realizing now that he had been given an Erosion Coin yesterday.

This ability to manipulate the memories of everyone on the entire Immortal Ship made Jing Yuan wonder if Chen Luo had other concurrent positions, such as being both the Hunting Envoy and the Abundance Envoy while also being the Memory Envoy.

But that shouldn't be the case. I'm a messenger, after all. How could I have fallen for it so easily?

"Alright, stop thinking about that. Are you guessing whether I'm a Memory Envoy? I did receive an offer from a Memory Envoy before, but I didn't accept it. The Memory Envoy is someone else," Chen Luo said.

"..."

No, I was just guessing, and you actually answered?

And you even said you weren't trying to upset me?

Jing Yuan was somewhat wary of being so easily read on.

However, seeing that his two future selves treated Chen Luo quite well, Jing Yuan temporarily suppressed this subconscious rejection.

In fact, if Chen Luo weren't truly able to help everyone, he wouldn't have many friends simply because of his ability to read minds at will.

Of course, there's also the reason why Chen Luo never reveals his mind-reading ability to certain people, which often makes them forget about this ability.

“Jingyuan, there are differences even among envoys.” Chen Luo patted Jingyuan on the shoulder.

"..." Jing Yuan suspected that Chen Luo was targeting him.

However, he couldn't refute it, since Jing Yuan only realized after Chen Luo reminded him that the memories of everyone on the Immortal Ship seemed to have been slightly altered.

"Wait, if that's the case, then in the Qiong Guan Formation..." Jing Yuan suddenly remembered something very important.

"Don't worry, what I said in the Qiong Guan Zhen was the truth... at least most of it."

"...Most of them? Which part of your statement is a lie?" Jing Yuan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

"Don't worry, it's not about you."

"..." Jing Yuan remained silent more often than usual today.

"Fine, it seems that even if you're lying, we can't refuse your help. We don't need it, and we can't do it anyway," Jing Yuan sighed.

There's no need to refuse Chen Luo's help, because Chen Luo wasn't lying.

I couldn't refuse Chen Luo's help, because I really couldn't.

From another perspective, the fact that Chen Luoneng was able to carry out such a large-scale operation without being discovered by anyone, even Jing Yuan, the Divine General of Strategy, demonstrates the power gap between the two.

“But what I don’t understand is, since you’ve already done so much, why not do more? And why are you doing all this?” Jing Yuan frowned.

"Emmm... The reason I favor the Immortal Ship so much, and even don't hesitate to earn a little less to enhance your power, is because the stronger you are, the stronger I will be. We are inextricably linked."

"Oh, what do you mean?"

"You don't need to know that. Just know that I didn't lie to you. To be honest, if I were lying to you, I wouldn't need to come up with such an outrageous reason," Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo was referring to the Xuanyuan Sword, because the Xianzhou culture can also be considered a type of Chinese culture.

Therefore, Chen Luo was able to draw upon the power of all the Immortal Ship people and unify it without any dilution of power.

In addition, there is a Star God on the Immortal Ship... Although the fate of the Hunting Star God is relatively narrow, aren't there all the Immortal Ship people in the entire Immortal Ship Alliance?

Together, they could probably take down a Star God without any problem.

Driven to desperation, Chen Luo directly copied three Hunting Star Gods, and with three times the power of a Star God, he instantly killed all the Star Gods present!

Chen Luo is now more inclined to play simulation games.

Use the "scraps" of Paradise Gold Coins that you don't need to cultivate the entire Fairy Boat Alliance and see what kind of flowers they can bloom.

Of course, saying that might be a bit arrogant.

But if you insist that Chen Luo has a particular fondness for the Xianzhou culture, Chen Luo cannot refute it.

Wake up! You're just lusting after Tingyun and Fuxuan's bodies, and maybe even Suchang, Jingliu, or Bailu.

Chen Luo's face instantly darkened.

Wasn't Chen Luo thinking that he might be able to get a lot of commissions from the Immortal Ship?

Putting everything else aside, Demon Yin Body is definitely an extremely qualified five-star commission.

In addition, there are various four-star commissions.

As for killing Bountiful... perhaps it's a six-star commission.

"Then why didn't you help me to the end? You... how much do you know about this Star Core incident?" Jing Yuan finally asked this question.

When Jing Yuan saw that Chen Luoneng could duplicate the item three times without any side effects or consumption, Jing Yuan knew that things were in big trouble.

Jing Yuan had tried his best to see Chen Luo in a positive light, but he realized that he had still underestimated Chen Luo.

Putting everything else aside, Jingyuan discovered that the silver and gold Jingyuan, who seemed to come from the future, only knew what happened in the future, and there seemed to be no prohibitions. They probably said whatever they wanted to know about the future.

Isn't it clear what this means?
