In the gaze of Jiang Che and Nangong Luo, the blue mist scattered by the Jade Willow Branch rolled down mightily, like a turquoise river cascading down from the heavens, pouring toward Tiger King Ridge.

The azure light shone brightly, and within the glow, the endless blue mist gathered, forming the illusory true form of the Willow God, gazing at Peach Grove Valley below.

"Thunder Tiger, my friend, please come forth to meet!"

The Willow God's expression was calm, speaking nonchalantly towards Peach Grove Valley.

The voice rolled like thunder, resounding through Tiger King Ridge.

The next moment, a golden stream of light flew out from Peach Grove Valley, and in the blink of an eye, arrived in front of the Willow God.

It was Jiang Che, piloting the Heaven-Piercing Spear, carrying Nangong Luo, flying over.

"I am not aware of the purpose of your visit to Tiger King Ridge today, Willow God, my friend?"

Jiang Che looked at Willow God, smiling as he spoke.

Regarding the sudden visit of Willow God to Tiger King Ridge, Jiang Che was also bewildered; logically, Willow God should be quietly recuperating in the Imperial Capital. Why would there be a whim to roam around?

After a momentary pause, Willow God spoke, "Thunder Tiger, my friend, I came today because I have a request."

Although it was somewhat hard to speak out, thinking of the current situation in the Great Qin Empire, Willow God still opened her mouth with difficulty.

"Oh? Please, speak, Willow God, my friend?"

The Jiang River was a bit surprised, caught off guard by Willow God's change.

Despite what he told his younger sister, that Willow God was one of the Tiger King Ridge's own, their relationship was not good, actually filled with enmity aside from the unknown system-binding connection.

Previously, the two were at daggers drawn, having fought twice, once in the Imperial Capital and another time in the courtyard battles. Normally, Willow God would surely hold a great grudge against him, so why would she ask for his help now?

Could it be that his Bodhi Fruit had taken effect?

Did a single Bodhi Fruit cause Willow God's attitude to change so rapidly?

Beside him, Nangong Luo, upon hearing that Willow God wanted to seek their elder brother's help, believed even more in her elder brother's words.

This Willow God must truly be one of their Tiger King Ridge's own!

Otherwise, how could Willow God come to ask their elder brother for help?

As Jiang Che and Nangong Luo's thoughts raced, the Willow God across from them said, "I wonder if the Thunder Tiger, my friend, has been paying attention to the major events in the Great Qin Empire recently.

Recently, the Fierce Beast Qiongqi has been frequently attacking cities in the Great Qin Empire, causing endless slaughter, extremely malevolent.

Regrettably, I am injured and cannot deal with it. If I forcibly intervene, it might harm my essence."

If it weren't for her body's injury, she wouldn't have to run to Tiger King Ridge to seek Thunder Tiger.

The strength of Qiongqi is not to be underestimated; the fact that it hasn't been captured by the Buddha's Son of Little Leiyin Temple for so long shows how troublesome it is.

Since even Buddha's Son cannot manage it, those revivers who are not as strong surely cannot contend with Qiongqi either.

In Willow God's view, within the Great Qin Empire, those capable of resolving Qiongqi, apart from herself, are only two: the infamous Black Demon Tiger and the not-much-better Thunder Tiger King.

However, since Willow God had previously injured the Black Demon Tiger, and considering the friendly gesture Thunder Tiger made when meeting her in the Imperial Capital, in this urgent situation, Willow God chose Thunder Tiger as the object of her plea for assistance.

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Che vaguely understood her intention; she wanted him to intervene!

"I wish to request Thunder Tiger, my friend, to assist the Great Qin Empire in eliminating the trouble of Qiongqi... I wonder, what does Thunder Tiger, my friend, think?"

Willow God didn't delay, directly stating her goal.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Che was amused, thinking so indeed. However, he didn't immediately agree, instead smiling calmly and saying, "It is well known that I have grievances with the Great Qin Empire, why should I intervene for the Great Qin Empire?"

The life or death of the Great Qin Empire has nothing to do with me, agreeing to help them would only be thankless.

Jiang Che is no fool.

Especially since he has forever engraved in his heart the nuclear weapon the Great Qin Empire once launched towards Tiger King Ridge.

Hearing Jiang Che's response, Willow God was not surprised at all, for indeed, the other party had no reason to intervene for the Great Qin Empire, and she sighed inwardly.

Willow God, with a solemn face, earnestly promised Jiang Che, "Thunder Tiger, my friend, if you intervene this time, I will owe you a favor. What do you think?"

Nangong Luo beside her was shocked upon hearing Willow God's promise to owe a favor.

It is often said that while some things are easy to repay, debts of gratitude are hard to settle.

For experts like elder brother and Willow God, they would not lightly owe favors to others.

Because, when it comes time to repay the favor, you don't know what kind of price you will have to pay.

Like Nangong Luo, Jiang Che was similarly shocked, staring at Willow God. He never expected Willow God would go to such lengths for the Great Qin Empire.

You must know that Jiang Che is not just any ordinary practitioner; for low-level cultivators, Willow God might owe a favor easily, because it's easy to repay theirs.

But Jiang Che is different. He and Willow God are both strong. For the other party to find an opportunity to repay such a favor is extremely difficult.

Seeing Jiang Che's silence, Willow God felt a bit disappointed, thinking she might have to return empty-handed today.

However, she somewhat anticipated this, knowing that her relationship with Thunder Tiger was not good, so it wasn't surprising for the other party to refuse her request.

"I'll take it!"

Just then, Jiang Che suddenly nodded and agreed.

He wasn't doing it for a favor from Willow God; although her strength is decent, her advancement speed surely can't compete with his. When his cultivation surpassed hers by several major realms, her favor would be of no use to him.

Jiang Che was mainly concerned that if Willow God couldn't find anyone to act, she might force herself to deal with Qiongqi, risking damage to her essence. This would surely affect her work efficiency, which Jiang Che could not allow.

Upon hearing Jiang Che's agreement, Willow God was initially taken aback, then overjoyed.

"Thank you, Thunder Tiger, my friend, for your help. I am immensely grateful!"

Willow God bowed, expressing her gratitude.

"Willow God, my friend, just remember you owe me a favor,"

Jiang Che said calmly.

"Rest assured, Thunder Tiger, my friend, I will not forget this promise!"

Willow God said resolutely.

"That's good. Expect to hear from me; I'll handle it promptly."

After a few words, Willow God bid farewell, transforming into a wave of green mist, returning to the Jade Willow Branch overhead, and disappearing into the void.

Jiang Che watched her departure.

Meanwhile, Nangong Luo looked at her elder brother with suspicion.

Just now, she thought her elder brother would refuse sternly, but unexpectedly, he agreed directly.

When did her elder brother become so easygoing?
