Chapter 579 The Importance of the Demon Summoning Banner

Wen Rui finished speaking with gritted teeth, and his old face couldn't help but turn slightly red. As handsome as he looked when he was confronting the saint just now, he felt as embarrassed now.

But one thing is for sure, losing face is better than losing money.

Even though it was the Jade Emperor's money that was lost, Wen Rui's nature of not taking advantage of an opportunity would be like being at a disadvantage, so he turned back with a licking face.

Nuwa looked disdainful and sneered, "Brother Tongtian thinks so highly of you, but you are just a petty person."

"It doesn't matter whether I am a villain or not. You are a saint. You can't go back on your words and not keep your promises, right?"

Wen Rui said confidently: "Since you didn't agree to my last request, I should make a new request. You can say that other than letting my son go, you can make any other request you want."

"The words of the saints are as good as the law. I promised you, and I will not break my promise."

Nuwa sneered and said in a deep voice: "Well, what new requests do you have? Let me be frank with you. Don't play tricks and set verbal traps to deceive me. Be careful that all your tricks will end up in vain!"

After hearing her say this, Wen Rui had no choice but to give up the idea of playing word games and committing contract fraud.

The other party has a big mouth and a big fist. Wen Ruike doesn't have the ability to make her calm and reasonable, so it's better to stop trying to be smart.

"Your Majesty, please understand. I have invested a lot of money in repairing the Wa Palace. I wanted to exchange it for the safety of my family, but Your Majesty did not allow it."

Wen Rui crossed his arms and said, "All the money has been spent, but the work has not been done. It's really a loss of both money and life. The palace has been built, we can't tear it down and sell it at a discount. The used building materials can't be sold at a high price..."

Nuwa was getting impatient and scolded, "Stop pretending to be pitiful and just speak your mind!"

"My request is not high. Please ask Goddess Nuwa to settle the project payment."

Wen Rui took out an abacus, moved the beads and said, "I'll calculate your cost price, which is 623.6 trillion fairy jades. I'll give you a zero, so please pay 60 trillion."

"A saint does not accumulate wealth. I don't even have a single piece of immortal jade. You should understand this truth. Stop talking nonsense."

After laying the groundwork for the project, Wen Rui finally came back to his true intention: "I heard that Nuwa has a lot of magic weapons, so why not just ask for one to pay for the project."

Nuwa had long lost her patience with him. The more she looked at him, the more hateful he seemed to her. She wished she could send him away immediately.

She was too lazy to say a word. She shook her hands and several magic weapons flew out from her sleeves and hung in the air.

Wen Rui quickly looked closely at those magic weapons.

A lamp, a long whip, a black rope, a purple gold ring, a golden gourd, a small brown mud ball, a pair of silver scissors, a pile of colorful stones, a golden hairpin, a snake-headed staff, six precious beads, a scroll...

Each magic weapon was shrouded in precious light and brilliant brilliance. Wen Rui's eyes were almost dazzled. He had never seen so many innate, acquired, and meritorious treasures in his entire life.

As expected, he is one of the top bosses in the prehistoric world. If you can kill him alone, it will be a huge reward.

Wen Rui could not recognize all of the numerous magic weapons, only some of them. The lamp was probably the Precious Lotus Lamp, the pile of mud should be the Nine Heavens Xirang, the colorful stone was the Nuwa Stone, the six gems were the Five Elements Spirit Beads plus the Holy Spirit Beads, and the scroll was a map of mountains, rivers, and the country.

"My Lady, I am a little ignorant. I cannot recognize all of your magic weapons, and I don't know which one is suitable for me."

Wen Rui shamelessly asked for advice in person: "Please tell me, Madam, so that I won't be blind and choose the wrong treasure, causing the magic weapon to be covered in dust and the pearl to be thrown into the dark."

"I'm sick!"

Nuwa suppressed her temper and gestured in a bad mood, saying: "There are three weapons: the Heavenly Blade, the Seven-Star Moon Whip, and the Qiongzhe Liguang Scissors. They are all killing treasures. If used well, they can kill a Golden Immortal instantly."

"There are three magic weapons for catching: the Three Dazzling Rings, the Monster Binding Rope, and the Chaosing Soul Fixing Hairpin." "There are three magic weapons for defense: the Mountain and River State Map, the Precious Lotus Lantern, the Five Spiritual Pearls, and the Holy Spirit Pearl."

"The rest are a variety of treasures, such as Xirang, Five-colored Stone, the Snake Staff and the Demon-Calling Banner that I used before I became a Taoist..."

By the end, Nuwa had run out of patience and urged, "Choose quickly. You can't take the Mountains and Rivers Map. You can choose the rest."

"These...are all good things. It's hard to choose. I always have difficulty making choices..."

"hurry up!"

Nuwa screamed and scolded, looking furious, and it seemed as if she was about to turn into a snake's tail and go crazy at any moment.

Wen Rui quickly reached out and took the golden gourd, put it in his arms, and stuffed it into his personal secret realm. He said, "Then I'll choose the 'Demon Summoning Banner'. I feel that this treasure is destined to be with me."

Nuwa looked puzzled. The Demon-summoning Banner was not the highest-grade magic weapon among them. It could even be considered one of the worst.

This treasure was taken by Nuwa from the demon emperor Dijun during the war between wizards and liches.

The function of the Demon-summoning Banner is quite simple, which is only to summon and control the demons. When one's cultivation reaches a certain level, this kind of summoning magic weapon cannot be said to be completely useless in fighting, but it can only be said to be better than nothing.

The present time is not tens of thousands of years ago. Big monsters are rare in the world, and even if you summon a group of monsters, you can't summon many powerful monsters.

In comparison, even the five-colored stones she refined herself were more powerful in battles. One stone could hit a Golden Immortal and land on his head, knocking him off the clouds.

Not to mention those weapons, they are all top-level magical weapons that can break the golden body of the Golden Immortal, and one can kill the Golden Immortal with them.

In terms of uselessness, only the Demon Binding Rope is worse than the Demon Summoning Banner.

The reason is the same. There are no big monsters in the world nowadays, so the magic weapons with special attack properties against monsters have naturally lost their value.

Wen Rui had already put the demon-summoning banner in his arms.

Nuwa was suspicious and couldn't help asking, "Why did you choose that banner when there were so many treasures? Don't regret it right away and come back to make trouble again."

Wen Rui answered casually: "I heard that this flag can summon top-level beautiful fairies, and once they are summoned, the owner of the flag will obey orders..."

Nuwa looked disgusted and waved her hand like she was shooing away a fly, interrupting him and saying, "Stop talking, you are polluting my ears. Go away quickly, you filthy bastard. If you stay too long you will pollute my place."

After getting the demon-summoning banner, Wen Rui got what he wanted and was very satisfied. He tactfully stepped on the auspicious cloud and quickly slipped away, soon disappearing into the clouds.

From the very beginning, Wen Rui came back for the demon-summoning flag. Summoning a beautiful demon was just an excuse.

He has openly made his intentions clear to Nuwa, and is determined to engage in a gamble of fate over the survival of the Western Zhou Dynasty. If the banner continues to remain in Nuwa's hands, Wen Rui is afraid that he will never be able to defeat her.

Most of the senior management, technical and scientific research personnel under Wen Rui are all from the demon race. These various demon talents who have received systematic education are the trump cards and support that are more valuable to Wen Rui than any magic weapon.

If Nuwa understood this, she would use the Demon Summoning Banner to directly recruit the demon team that Wen Rui had trained for many years with great effort for her own use. Wen Rui would not know how to fight against the group of talented demon students he had taught.

The student is better than the teacher, and there are many cases of teachers being beaten by their students.

Now that the Demon Recruiting Banner is in hand, there is no need to worry about the precious elite team of demons collectively jumping ship.
