Outside Tianyun Auction House, in a deserted alley somewhere, two figures stood face to face.
"Ha... Since you can't trust Mu Han, you can just walk away. Why bother looking for me?"
After hearing what Old Monster Hu said, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sneered, his tone full of ridicule.
"Hehe, as I said just now, I came here for money and helped Mo Zhai because he could afford the reward before, but now that the situation has changed, I naturally can't be too much at a loss!"
Old Monster Hu looked at Xiao Yan with his eyes, a sinister smile on his face, as if he was a villain.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly and narrowed his eyes, not daring to underestimate the old monster Hu in front of him.
It is extremely difficult to cultivate to the level of Eight-Star Half-Emperor, but Old Monster Hu is still able to be so cautious. It is not difficult to see that his future may not be like that of Mu Han.
In the narrow alley, two figures looked at each other. After a while, they both burst into laughter. After the laughter, Xiao Yan's face quickly returned to normal, and he smiled:
"If you want to change your boss, that won't be a problem..."
After saying this, Old Monster Hu seemed much calmer. He knew that Xiao Yan had more to say.
Xiao Yan also smiled tacitly, raised his eyes, stared at Old Monster Hu, and then continued:
"But the question is, how should I believe you? Even what you just said to me was within my expectations. If you want me to believe you, you must come up with something that is enough to convince me!"
After hearing this, Old Monster Hu chuckled lightly, staring at Xiao Yan opposite him, and said:
"If you talk about something substantial, I naturally can't come up with it. What I can tell you is that in addition to the four of us you saw this time, there is also a Seven-Star Half-Emperor in Muzhuang."
Xiao Yan frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect these guys to have a plan to deal with him. Although he was not an Eight-Star Half-Emperor, he was still a person who could overturn the entire battle situation. Xiao Yan could not tolerate him ignoring him.
Therefore, Xiao Yan could only hope that the strength of the Seven-Star Half-Emperor was not what he imagined.
As if he had understood Xiao Yan's thoughts, before the expression on Xiao Yan's face could change, Old Monster Hu grinned and poured a basin of cold water on his head.
"The Seven-Star Half-Emperor is the peak of strength in the later period. He is only one step away from breaking through the Eight-Star Half-Emperor. As long as he enters the void thunder pool, he will definitely break through the Eight-Star! And when the time comes, what you will face is
It’s not just the three of us.”
Xiao Yan nodded solemnly. He didn't need Old Monster Hu to remind him of this. Once the opponent added another Eight-Star Half-Emperor, this terrifying reinforcement would have an overwhelming effect on the battle situation.
What's more, there is Yan Bing, who is also at the peak of the Eight-Star Half-Emperor. Once these two people break through, then even Xiao Yan can also break through to the Four-star Half-Emperor. With all his methods, there is no way he can be them.
opponent.
Old Monster Hu's reminder allowed Xiao Yan to predict the overall strength of Mo Zhai's side in advance, which also allowed him to make some preparations before entering the thunder pool. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive every battle.
If Old Monster Hu hadn't said this today, Xiao Yan would have really thought that the opponent only had three high-level half-emperors. Once this happened, when the thunder pool was opened, Mo Zhai and others would catch them off guard, which would make Xiao Yan even more
This side is at a disadvantage!
Therefore, what Mr. Hu said was undoubtedly a relief to Xiao Yan at this time.
"Having said so much, let's talk about your conditions."
Xiao Yun retracted his thoughts and his eyes fell on Old Monster Hu again. He would not believe that the guy in front of him would reveal this news to him in vain.
Old Monster Hu grinned and wiped his scarlet tongue across his lips. Then he raised his eyes and said slowly:
"You are really straightforward. It's much easier than that Mo Zhai. I won't say more. I have four emperor-grade elixirs. I promise that I won't take action when the time comes."
As soon as he said this, Xiao Yan frowned, his eyes narrowed into a thin line, and a pair of sharp eyes stared at Old Monster Hu, but the latter was completely indifferent to this.
"You really want to be like this oriole..."
Xiao Yan said in an indifferent tone.
Old Monster Hu sneered, stared at Xiao Yan with a fearless expression, and sneered:
"Haha... It's just something outside of you, why do you care so much? With your current financial resources, you can't miss these. Besides, if I take action, you won't even be able to save your life. What can you do with these pills? Four Emperor Grades
The elixir can be used to exchange a life, which is very worthwhile!"
Xiao Yan stared at Old Monster Hu, sneered, stretched out his palm, and grasped it casually in the void in front of him. With a flash of light, a jade bottle appeared in Xiao Yan's palm.
This was exactly the jade bottle that Xiao Yan threw to the old man at the auction house, which contained four emperor-grade elixirs.
When Old Monster Hu saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up slightly, and greedy eyes burst out from his eyes.
"Ha, I'm afraid the reward Mo Zhai promised you is only one-half of what you asked for from me. With four imperial-grade elixirs, you are really a lion!"
As soon as Xiao Yan said these words, Old Monster Hu's expression changed instantly, but before he could speak, Xiao Yan spoke again:
"Four emperor-grade elixirs are enough for me to find two high-level half-emperors to protect me outside, and they must be the kind of people who will do their best to protect me. So why do you think you want four emperor-grade elixirs?"
Taste the elixir."
Old Monster Hu's expression changed. Xiao Yan was right. Four emperor-grade elixirs placed outside could indeed recruit two high-level half-emperors. However, the reward Xiao Yan offered was only two emperor-grade elixirs.
, but there will be some unwillingness in his heart.
Old Monster Hu's expression was uncertain, and his furrowed brows stretched and furrowed continuously. After a while, he sighed helplessly, looked at Xiao Yan with a frown, and said:
"Three, three emperor-grade elixirs. This is my only concession. If you are still unwilling, then our business is off the table."
"Okay, I can give you three emperor-grade elixirs, but you have to promise me one thing..."
As soon as the words came out of Old Monster Hu's mouth, Xiao Yan spat out his words immediately, which made Old Monster Hu, who had just turned around, frown again.
Xiao Yan ignored him, paused for two seconds, and then continued:
"I can't just give you three emperor-grade elixirs for nothing based on these pieces of information that I will know sooner or later. Therefore, I want you to take action for me when the two sides are fighting. If you are not willing, then this
This is just a business deal, at worst, it will be a dead end and you won't get anything."
This time, Old Monster Hu lowered his head, his face looking a little gloomy.
"Boy, are you threatening me?"
"I'm just making a request."
Xiao Yan looked at Old Monster Hu with a calm face, his eyes were still and there was no flaw in his eyes.
The two of them looked at each other calmly, without anyone speaking first. For a moment, the surroundings of the two of them became silent, but their foreheads were unconsciously covered with dense beads of sweat.
Whoever loses his composure first will be defeated first, and the result will be decided by the other party.
Invisibly, the heartbeats of the two of them became faster and faster as time went by. The violent heartbeats could be heard clearly within ten steps of the two of them.
The surrounding atmosphere also gradually became heavy under such circumstances.
"Tick tock..."
Big beads of sweat fell on a stone between Old Monster Hu's feet. More sweat flowed down the dense wrinkles on the old face, and another drop of sweat dripped.
The same situation is also happening on Xiao Yan's side.
"Well, since you don't want to, then I won't force it, but what you said to me today, I think it is a very good reason. Once you have internal strife, I will break it when I think about it.
Caused me a lot of trouble."
Withdrawing his gaze, Xiao Yan seemed to have given up decisively. No longer bothering to pay attention to Old Monster Hu, he turned around and was about to leave.
When Old Monster Hu saw this, his expression suddenly changed. He didn't expect Xiao Yan to be so ruthless, and wanted to harm him if they couldn't cooperate. Then he thought of Mu Han's ruthlessness, and then looked at Xiao Yan and the three emperors in front of him.
Pill, Old Monster Hu finally softened his attitude.
"I promise you! If necessary, I will take action, but I will only do it once! After the thunder pool comes out, you and I will not owe each other anything!"
"good!"
Before Old Monster Hu finished speaking, Xiao Yan turned around and looked at Old Monster Hu with a smile on his face. The latter could only sigh helplessly. He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a profit, but he never expected that he would be killed in the end.
Xiao Yan forced him to board the boat.
Seeing the successful smile on Xiao Yan's face, Old Man Hu also sneered in his heart.
"Even if I am missing, the Nine-Star Half-Emperor cannot win simply by relying on numbers."
"Haha, you will know when the time comes whether you can handle it or not. I just hope that if that time comes, you will not think about betraying me again, otherwise, I will make your death ugly. Trust me."
Xiao Yan smiled lightly, staring at Old Monster Hu with his eyes fixed on him, strange fire suddenly appeared in the depths of his pupils, but the threatening meaning in his words could not be refuted at all.
When Old Monster Hu saw this, he was also secretly frightened. From the tone of his voice, it didn't sound like he was lying. Considering Xiao Yan's reputation, Old Monster Hu also believed that Xiao Yan had not lied to him.
Thinking of this, Old Monster Hu was suddenly startled, and a chill suddenly arose in his heart...
