Talk About Bragging, How Do You Really Have The Qualifications Of The Great Emperor?

Chapter 138: One Percent Interest, the Lowest in History! (2100 words)

Regarding the promotion of Immortal Gate loans.

Wang Xiu was more than prepared.

In addition to asking Li Longhao and the Huang Yunchong from Bedroom Lineage, as well as other people he had a good relationship with, to help distribute flyers.

He himself set up a platform in front of the Dragon Head Peak mission hall.

A banner was hung high above.

It read: Spirit Turtle Peak Immortal Gate Loan, lending for a better life!

Wang Xiu stood in the middle of the platform.

Dressed in white like snow.

His smile was warm like the spring sun, making people easily develop a favorable impression.

The mission hall.

Undoubtedly, it was the place with the highest flow of people in the entire Three Purities Immortal Gate.

In just a short moment.

A large number of disciples and elders gathered around.

Many of them, still unaware, looked at Wang Xiu with curiosity, not knowing what the Chief of the Divination Lineage wanted to do. Why did he create such a commotion?

...

"Fellow senior and junior brothers and sisters!"

When Wang Xiu saw that there were enough people, he saluted loudly, "I am Wang Xiu, the Chief Disciple of Spirit Turtle Peak, and I greet you all!"

"I believe you should have heard something!"

"Recently, Spirit Turtle Peak has acquired a new Blessed Land!"

"Thanks to the favor of the Sect Master, the preference of the peak masters and Uncle-Masters, Spirit Turtle Peak can now exclusively enjoy fifty percent of the spiritual stone production in this Blessed Land!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the elders and disciples around turned black.

"Damn, I knew this scum from the Divination Lineage was just showing off with such a big commotion!"

"A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory, I knew this kid was up to no good!"

"The Sect Master is confused, how could he agree to such a request?"

"He's just like his master!"

"Damn it, don't stop me, I want to kill him!"

"Don't be impulsive, Uncle-Master!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

Countless people glared at him.

Several older elders even took out their Law Treasures, wanting to rush up to the platform and fight Wang Xiu.

Faced with this situation.

Wang Xiu seemed to have anticipated it long ago, and remained calm, continuing to speak, "To be honest, when I first heard this news, I refused!"

"Yes, I did risk my life to enter the demon cave for this Blessed Land... I narrowly escaped death multiple times in the aftermath of the battle with an Almighty in the Saint Manifestation stage, despite being just a Core Formation Stage disciple!"

"Furthermore, in order to bring back the Blessed Land, it consumed a significant portion of my master's remaining lifespan!"

Wang Xiu spoke calmly, his face filled with a carefree expression.

There was a slight silence in the air.

The previously restless atmosphere had calmed down.

Some of the younger disciples were taken aback.

They had heard more or less about Luo Binglan's situation and knew that her life was not long.

Upon hearing Wang Xiu's words.

They couldn't help but have subtle changes in their hearts.

The older cultivators sneered at this.

But they didn't lash out like before.

They didn't deny the contributions that Wang Xiu and Luo Binglan had made for this Blessed Land.

But their dislike for the Divination Lineage was not solely because of this Blessed Land.

And this Blessed Land had little to do with their interests.

So, it was difficult for them to change their views.

...

Wang Xiu remained composed and continued, "I know that these things are not important to all of you present here!"

"Perhaps you sneer at them!"

"Perhaps you think I'm just seeking sympathy!"

"But for me, it doesn't matter!"

"I've long been used to it!"

He chuckled self-deprecatingly, then spoke with an unprecedented seriousness, "But my master taught me! No matter how others outside curse us, saying that we, the Divination Lineage, are a disgrace to the Three Purities, saying that we are the culprits behind the decline of the Three Purities Immortal Gate...

We must be clear in our hearts!

That is, we are wholeheartedly for the Immortal Gate, wholeheartedly for the righteous path, and wholeheartedly for the destruction of the Demon Race. This has never changed!"

Wang Xiu took a deep breath, a smile appearing on his face, "Now, the inheritance of the Divination Lineage is almost extinct. There is only my master, my junior sister, and me at Spirit Turtle Peak!

Fifty percent of the spiritual stone production is too much!

It can't be used up, and it's wasteful!

Instead of letting these resources go to waste, it would be better to put them in the hands of those who truly need them!

Therefore, I have decided, starting today...

To officially launch the Immortal Gate Loan!"

Wang Xiu's voice rose and fell, resounding through the air: "All disciples of my Three Purities Immortal Gate can go to Spirit Turtle Peak with their identity tokens to process loan procedures and borrow spirit stones!"

"Fellow disciples, you can take this money to buy elixirs, buy Law Weapons, and improve yourselves. When you earn money from future missions, you can slowly repay it!"

Upon hearing these words, the previously noisy and chaotic scene suddenly quieted down.

All eyes were fixed on Wang Xiu.

The expressions went from initially mocking and disdainful to doubtful and contemplative.

There is no doubt that the young disciples of the Three Purities Immortal Gate are currently trapped in a vicious cycle.

Without spirit stones, their cultivation progress is slow.

With insufficient strength, they cannot take on high-level missions and earn more cultivation resources.

Without cultivation resources, their progress remains slow.

It's a never-ending cycle.

If Wang Xiu can provide a loan, it can break this cycle.

By borrowing money first.

To improve their strength and cultivation level!

Once their strength increases, can't they earn more money?

These simple points are easily thought of, and people's eyes show signs of interest.

But there is no excessive excitement.

Because loans like this are not Wang Xiu's invention.

Businessmen all over the world have long been playing with this, and banks are prevalent in major cities.

An elder sneered and said, "I thought you were going around in circles, what are you really up to? Turns out... you want to lend money at high interest rates and make money from us?

Tell me, how much interest do you want to charge? Eight percent? Or nine percent?"

As the saying goes, prejudice is an insurmountable mountain.

When people heard that Wang Xiu wanted to introduce Immortal Gate Loans, countless scenarios came to mind.

For a moment, a commotion broke out.

Wang Xiu remained calm and said, "One percent!"

"Hahaha, look, I said this kid would charge one percent..."

The voice of the elder who questioned suddenly froze.

His face changed drastically.

He turned his head and stared at Wang Xiu, unable to believe his ears. "What did you just say?"

Wang Xiu looked him in the eye without any evasion. "I said, I only charge one percent interest!"

A hush fell over the crowd in an instant.

Countless people gasped in disbelief, staring at Wang Xiu on the stage.

One percent interest?

Is it true?

It should be noted that in this world, no matter how much money is borrowed, the monthly interest rate is above five percent.

Even when using Law Treasures or valuable properties as collateral.

The interest rate for loans is lower than for ordinary loans, but still above three percent!

In Vermilion Bird City.

The Chamber of Commerce that specializes in providing loans for cultivators charges an interest rate as high as seven percent!

For some shady businesses, the interest rate doubles!

Borrow ten thousand this year, and it becomes twenty or thirty thousand the next year!

And because they consider the risk of cultivators suddenly dying, the interest rates are not only higher than those for ordinary people, but also require asset collateral!

Especially for disciples of the Three Purities Immortal Gate.

Almost everyone knows they are poor and have a high mortality rate when fighting demons and monsters.

It's easy for them to become bad debts.

It's difficult to get a loan, the amount is small, the approval time is long, and the interest rate is higher than that for ordinary people.

One percent interest?

Unheard of, unseen!

What the hell, how is it any different from borrowing for free?

Everyone was shocked.

Their breathing became rapid as they stared intently at Wang Xiu's expression.

It seemed like they wanted to confirm.

Is the young man on the stage joking with them?
