Chapter 157 - 124 Heavenly Spring Mountain Ends, The Beginning of the Great Battle_2

Xu Liyan, the first genius to sponsor Gu Wen’s Sword Spirit, finally spoke up, "Yesterday our ancestor sent a message, asking us to return the treasures. Brother Red Dust, please return them; we have no other choice."
As these words came out, it seemed as though everyone had found a breakthrough, and they all started to express their agreement.
"I feel ashamed, Brother Red Dust, but we have no choice; we must obey our ancestor."
"Alas, it’s not easy for us either; I hope Brother Red Dust can understand."
I’m not borrowing things from you; I exchanged the treasures for the True Sword Dao and goodwill. Now that you’ve already seen the True Sword Dao, how can you demand it back?
Asking the stock market to recover losses?
Gu Wen tugged at the corner of his mouth; he knew Cultivators were mortals too, but he did not expect these geniuses to be just as mundane.
Indeed, as long as the loss is big enough, even the richest man in the world would jump up and down. For these geniuses, the Sword Spirit might be worth half their lives.
But it’s somewhat poor sportsmanship to only allow yourself to benefit from goodwill and then want to recoup losses when the situation turns sour.
