"So, I would like to ask little friend Yun Xiao to detoxify Elder Mo Xun. In order to express my gratitude, I will inform the clan leader and release the elder's beloved daughter. What do you think?"
In the end, Huo Ying finally made the terms of this transaction clear, and emphasized that Yun Xiao should first detoxify Mo Xun before releasing him. This was also putting eye drops on Mu Ji.
In this way, the decision-making power was placed in Yun Xiao's hands. If Yun Xiao did not agree, Mu Ji would not be more jealous of Huo Ying. It was just because this boy refused to help.
It can be said that Huo Ying's strategy of diverting disaster to the east was used extremely well, and all the contradictions were transferred to Yun Xiao.
Especially when he saw this moment, when Mu Ji looked expectantly at the young man in rough clothes, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
What was originally a bad thing was turned around in the blink of an eye by himself. Huo Ying felt that he had saved this bargaining chip really cleverly.
Is he the only one among the entire Fire Sacred Rat clan to have this kind of preparedness for a rainy day?
"Yunxiao, look..."
Under Huo Ying's proud face, Mu Ji couldn't help it. Although he didn't explicitly ask Yun Xiao to agree, both Yun Xiao and Huo Ying instantly understood his hesitant words.
idea.
Perhaps in Mu Ji's view, replacing Chi Yan's mother with an insignificant Mo Xun was a good deal, not to mention that when they came back, they never thought that Mo Xun would be a variable.
.
In this case, what does Namo Xun's death have to do with them?
Being able to poison him was an unexpected blessing at best, but Chi Yan's mother didn't know how much more suffering she would have to endure in the Flame Prison.
However, the reason why Mu Ji hesitated to speak was because he was not sure whether Yun Xiao would agree. He had only known Yun Xiao for more than a month. If the other party insisted on not saving Mo Xun, there was nothing he could do.
.
Of course, Mu Ji had no such thoughts about what Huo Ying was thinking. Regardless of whether Yun Xiao agreed or not, he was the benefactor who saved Chi Yan and deserved his sincere gratitude.
Mu Ji's temperament is completely different from Huo Ying's. They are completely different things. He cannot deny Yun Xiao's contribution to saving Chi Yan just because he did not save Chi Yan's mother. That is not his style.
"Haha, Elder Huo is really good at planning!"
Yun Xiao watched the expressions of these two people in his eyes, and after sighing in his heart, he spoke, with a hint of undisguised sarcasm in his tone, but Huo Ying was not moved at all.
"But Elder Huo, do you think I can still trust you now?"
Yun Xiao's next words made Mu Ji couldn't help but react. His face changed immediately. I'm afraid he would no longer trust these two despicable people, Huo Ying and Mo Xun, right?
Even if he can do such a despicable thing as a sneak attack in the dark, there is nothing else he can't do. If after the poison on Mo Xun's body has been eliminated, Huo Ying will turn his face and deny anyone, then he will cry without tears.
Already.
Mu Ji had already seen Huo Ying's quibbling eloquence before. A matter that was originally reasonable, under Huo Ying's red lips and white teeth, made many elders feel contempt for him, the great elder.
Mu Ji's own family knew his own affairs and knew that he was far from Huo Ying's opponent in eloquent debate. If he was led by the nose, he might end up capsizing again.
Even when the time comes to pick up Chi Yan's mother from Yan Lao, Huo Ying may bite her back and accuse her of ignoring the clan rules and robbing the prison privately. This is not impossible to happen.
"That's right, Huo Ying, in order to show your sincerity, you first make an oath of heavenly calamity and poison!"
It seems that Mu Ji is not a fool. After being reminded by Yun Xiao, he immediately thought of a way. As soon as he said this, Yun Xiao was surprised, secretly thinking that as the elder of the Fire Palace, his reaction was not
Too unbearable.
"Haha, the elder is really impeccable in his work, I admire him!"
Hearing Mu Ji's words, Huo Ying was stunned for a moment, but he didn't seem too out of character. Instead, he praised him, but his tone and expression were more like mockery, which made Mu Ji's face heat up.
"Heaven above, I, Huo Ying, hereby swear that if I cannot fulfill my promise to reunite Mu Ji and his daughter after Yunxiao resolves the poison in Mo Xun, the heavenly calamity will come and my soul will be destroyed!"
However, although Huo Ying was making fun of him, he did not hesitate at all and pointed directly to the sky. When he finished speaking, a faint invisible wave fell from the sky, as if he was performing some unknown ritual.
Sensing the fluctuations in the way of heaven, both Mu Ji and Yun Xiao knew clearly that Huo Ying was not playing tricks on the Heavenly Tribulation Oath, and seemed to sincerely want to make this deal.
Especially Mu Ji, thinking of the identity of the third elder of the Namo Xun Emperor Palace, took it for granted that Huo Ying did not want to take responsibility and let him die at the headquarters of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, so he took out this important bargaining chip.
And this is also a great good thing for Mu Ji, so his eyes turned directly to Yun Xiao at the next moment, wanting to know if Huo Ying made the oath of heavenly calamity, would this young human being
Agree to his request.
"Elder Huo, please have Mo Xun brought here!"
Just when Mu Ji turned around, such a sentence suddenly came out from the mouth of the young man in rough clothes, which made him instantly ecstatic, secretly thinking that his long-cherished wish of twenty years was finally coming true.
At this moment, Mu Ji's gratitude to Yun Xiao was truly unparalleled. But what he didn't know was that Yun Xiao and Chi Yan were already close friends of life and death. As long as it was beneficial to Chi Yan, Yun Xiao would not hesitate.
to do it.
Yun Xiao himself was separated from his mother and sister when he was in Qianlong Continent, and he and Chi Yan depended on each other for life. He knew clearly what the reunion of mother and son meant to Chi Yan.
Even though there might be something fishy hidden in Huo Ying's Heavenly Tribulation Poison Oath, Yun Xiao still felt that there was reason to give it a try. If he could really reunite Chi Yan's mother and son, it would be a life spent by the Fire Holy Rat.
In addition, to a certain extent, if Mu Ji had not arrived in time when he was in Beiyuan City, Yun Xiao might have died at the hands of Lu Juetian, and how would he have had the chance to bargain at this moment?
Therefore, Yun Xiao agreed without too much hesitation. Firstly, it was because of his life-and-death friendship with Chi Yan, and secondly, he wanted to repay Mu Ji for saving his life. As for how to deal with possible changes, he had already thought about it.
"Elder Huo, we plain people don't tell secret stories. Although you have sworn the oath of heavenly calamity, there are some things that I have to guard against!"
Seeing that Huo Ying had sent someone to invite Mo Xun, Yun Xiaoxiao took advantage of this moment. After saying this, the excitement in Mu Ji's heart calmed down a bit, and he turned around to look at this rough guy.
Young man in clothes.
"Little friend Yunxiao, please tell me!"
Huo Ying was feeling very proud of himself, so he didn't care about the potential meaning of Yun Xiao's words. Instead, he waved his hand generously, indicating to the other party to express his request. It is human nature to be on guard against others.
"Before taking out Chi Yan's mother, I can only promise you to suppress the poison in Mo Xun's body so that it does not explode, but I cannot completely eliminate it. Only when I think it is absolutely safe will I do my best. Do you agree to this condition?
"
Yun Xiao didn't say too much nonsense and stated his request directly. Such statement made Huo Ying suddenly fall into silence, which was a bit different from what he had thought before.
"This guy is so young, but he acts so sophisticated!"
To be honest, Huo Ying already looked at Yun Xiao with admiration at this moment. He had countless easy ways to deal with Mu Ji, but when dealing with this young boy like Yun Xiao, he always tied his hands and feet.
Not only does this kid have great fighting ability due to his pulse cultivation, but his mind is not at all inferior to that of Huo Ying. This preventive condition also prevents some of Huo Ying's plans from being perfect.
However, in order to dispel Yun Xiao's doubts at this moment, Huo Ying could not say anything against it. This would disrupt his overall plan. Rather than failing to successfully complete the plan, he would never accept the failure of the plan.
"It seems that little friend Yunxiao still doesn't believe Huo, so whatever, then I will take a step back and agree to your request!"
After pretending to ponder for a moment, Huo Ying seemed to grit his teeth. As soon as he said this, Mu Ji next to him couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that if something happened again, his old heart would not be able to bear it.
"It's weird to believe you!"
Yun Xiao smiled and nodded, but there was a secret feeling in his heart.
The second elder of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan was scheming and more sinister than some human cultivators. Yun Xiao subconsciously didn't want to believe every word he said, even if it was a heavenly calamity oath.
Time passed quietly in silence. After about a stick of incense, footsteps sounded outside, and then two figures stepped in. One of them would not be too unfamiliar to everyone in the room.
Speaking of which, this was already the third time Mo Xun had stepped into this small courtyard in one day and one night. Thinking of the frustrations he felt the previous two times, when he saw the young man in rough clothes, his eyes were filled with desire.
Come out on fire.
Huo Ying just sent someone to invite Mo Xun, but he didn't know that an agreement had been reached. The third elder of the Imperial Palace didn't know why he was invited here again.
Therefore, in addition to anger, Mo Xun felt a little uneasy. He secretly thought that these guys had reached some agreement and wanted to kill him here and silence him, right?
In any case, this is also the home ground of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, not a human territory. Mo Xun is also poisoned and cannot protect himself. If even Huo Ying leaves him, then he really has no way to survive.
"Elder Mo, congratulations, after our discussion, little friend Yun Xiao has agreed to help you resolve the poison in your body!"
