After sharing a piece of the soup, Nie Tian finally loosened the fat in his mouth, which made his old and stiff face relax a little.
In fact, if the city lord of Tianluo City was not Nie Tian, but someone else, Gu Yi wouldn't say hello at all and would just mine.
But now it was Nie Tian who owned Tianluo City, so he had to be careful.
"Hey, brother Nie is indeed a generous person." Gu Yi chuckled and said something very unconscionable.
"Of course, we are friends." Nie Tian smiled faintly and looked at Gu Yi with a proud look on his face.
But at this time, Ding Yifan was a little unhappy and asked coldly: "City Lord Nie said he wanted to share a piece of the pie. I wonder how much this piece of pie will be?"
Ding Yifan originally thought that Nie Tian was interfering and was just here to rub some dirt, but he didn't expect that this guy wanted to take away the whole cake!
Nie Tian naturally heard the anger in Ding Yifan's tone, but he didn't even look at him and said calmly: "A cup of soup is a cup of soup. As for whether it's a big cup of soup or a small cup of soup, that depends on Ding."
Young Master is willing to contribute some strength."
Nie Tian knew that the secret of the Dragon Blood Stone had been spread, and it was impossible for him to save the Dragon Blood Stone alone. He had to rely on other forces to save Tianluo City.
The Alchemists Guild behind Gu Yi and the Dayuan Chamber of Commerce behind Ding Yifan are good forces.
Gu Yi is the red-clothed elder of the Alchemist Guild, and is a well-known figure even in the Three Thousand Small World. The Dayuan Chamber of Commerce is one of the seven top chambers of commerce in the Wuhui Merchant Alliance, and is also a good partner.
The most important thing is that Ding Yifan and Qingmu Lily are both smart people and will not do stupid things. They are much better than Feng Wuque and Gong Sheng.
Nie Tian likes to cooperate with smart people.
There is another most crucial point, that is, Nie Tian doesn’t care about Dragon Blood Stone at all!
What he cares about is: what's behind the dragon's blood stone.
right!!!
That’s what’s behind the Dragon Blood Stone!
The world only knows that dragon blood stone is a rare treasure, but few people know what it is and how it is formed.
Nie Tian had studied dragon blood stone in his previous life and was very clear about its formation process.
The most precious thing about dragon blood stone is the dragon blood contained in it.
Normal people think that the dragon blood in the dragon blood stone is not real dragon blood.
The divine dragon is an ancient sacred beast that became extinct in ancient times, so where can there be real dragon blood?
But Nie Tian knows that the dragon blood in the dragon blood stone is the real dragon blood, which is contained in the dragon's energy and essence in the dragon's body!
The reason why dragon blood stone is called dragon blood stone is because it is really related to the ancient sacred beast Shenlong.
The formation process of the dragon blood stone is that after the death of the dragon, the dragon's energy and blood are immortal, seeping into the ground, and finally integrated into the underground rocks. After a long period of tempering, it becomes the dragon blood stone.
There is a dragon blood stone in Tianluo Mountain, which means one thing: a divine dragon once fell on Tianluo Mountain!
After the death of the divine dragon, not only the dragon's energy, essence and blood will not be extinguished, but more importantly, the dragon's soul will not disappear either.
The reason why Nie Tian doesn't care about the dragon blood stone is because his goal is bigger, and that is the dragon soul!
If Nie Tian could find the dragon soul dormant on Tianluo Mountain, it would be much more terrifying than the value of the dragon blood stone.
The divine dragon is an ancient holy beast, a most powerful existence that surpasses ninth-level spiritual beasts. The strength of its soul is self-evident.
This is why Nie Tian was so excited when he heard about the Dragon Blood Stone.
He didn't take the small dragon blood stone lightly, but the ancient dragon soul was different. It was absolutely shocking, even more terrifying than the flames of doom!
If Nie Tian could obtain the ancient dragon soul, his strength would surely undergo a qualitative leap.
But it's too early to think about the dragon soul now. Nie Tian must save Tianluo City first.
The secret of the Dragon Blood Stone is revealed to the public, and soon Tianluo City will become the target of public criticism. At that time, everyone will point their finger at Nie Tian, because he is the lord of Tianluo City.
So what Nie Tian has to do now is to find a trustworthy collaborator. Gu Yi is his first consideration, and the Dayuan Chamber of Commerce is also good.
And Nie Tian was very sure that others did not know about the existence of the ancient dragon soul.
Even in the Celestial Realm, there are very few people who know the mystery of the formation of the Dragon Blood Stone. In these three thousand small worlds, there are absolutely no people who know this secret.
"What does City Lord Nie mean by this?" Ding Yifan was slightly startled and looked at Nie Tian with a somewhat impatient look.
Although Gu Yi was very respectful to Nie Tian, Ding Yifan was not so patient.
And if Gu Yi hadn't been by his side, Ding Yifan would have almost taken action against Nie Tian. He really couldn't figure out how a small city lord from a third-rate empire with only the strength of the Vientiane Realm could have such confidence, and actually want to think about Long as soon as he opened his mouth.
Swallow the blood stone alone!
Nie Tian finally glanced at Ding Yifan, but said unhurriedly: "Young Master Ding, aren't my words very clear? I am the Lord of Tianluo City, and the Dragon Blood Stone on Tianluo Mountain is originally mine. If I
Asking the Dayuan Chamber of Commerce to help will only require a guard at most. How much the guard will be paid will of course depend on how much effort he puts in. If someone tries to take away the dragon blood stone, it is absolutely impossible.
matter."
At the end of the conversation, Nie Tian was no longer polite and his tone became much lower.
"Nie Tian, you" Ding Yifan was young after all. He was choked up by Nie Tian's few words. He suddenly felt a lump of stuffy air in his chest, unable to swallow or spit out.
"Young Master Ding, don't be angry, don't be angry." Gu thought that the atmosphere was a bit tense, so he quickly persuaded with a smile.
At this time, Qingmu Lily also spoke. She twisted her face seductively, giggled, and said: "Yifan, don't be angry. I think what City Lord Nie Tian said makes sense. After all, the Dragon Blood Stone is in Tianluo Mountain.
, Mr. Nie Tian, as the Lord of Tianluo City, it is not a bad idea to say that the Dragon Blood Stone is his private property."
Nie Tian glanced at Qingmu Lily and said calmly: "It seems that there are some smart people in the Dayuan Chamber of Commerce."
"Nie Tian, you" Ding Yifan looked angry and speechless.
Nie Tian said Qingmu Lily was a smart person, but didn't that mean he said Ding Yifan was a fool?
Growing up, Ding Yifan has always heard praises. No one has ever looked down on him, and no one dared to call him stupid.
Ding Yifan glared at Nie Tian fiercely, and with anger rising in his heart, he roared: "Even if you are the Lord of Tianluo City, can you keep the Dragon Blood Stone in Tianluo Mountain?"
Originally, in Ding Yifan's opinion, Guyi and Dayuan Chamber of Commerce should be the leaders of this cooperation, but as soon as Nie Tian appeared, he looked down on others with a high profile and gave no room for negotiation at all.
What kind of thing is this?
"I can't protect him." Faced with Ding Yifan's rage, Nie Tian smiled indifferently and said calmly: "That's why I want to ask you to help me protect him."
