"Hei Ming Venerable, are you really willing to fall out with our Divine Profound Hall over a Dao Spiritual Pill?" the leading Elder asked through gritted teeth.
To be honest, he wasn’t afraid of Hei Ming Venerable. Although his strength had reached the Fifth Grade Dao Realm, after all, he was alone, and they were fifty strong, with several Elders already at the Fourth Grade Dao Realm.
If it really cos to a fight, it’s uncertain who would suffer and who would gain the upper hand!
However, if it really ca to that point, soone was bound to be injured or even fall. Unless absolutely necessary, they were unwilling to engage in conflict with such a formidable figure as Hei Ming Venerable.
"If you’re willing to give a Dao Spiritual Pill, I can step aside on this matter," Hei Ming Venerable said without a trace of embarrassnt. After all, everyone was out for their own interests, and if the benefits were right, one might even sell their soul and their own mother.
Several Elders were also struggling. The Dao Spiritual Pill was a rare treasure. Although no one in the Divine Profound Hall could refine it, with enough cost, they could still purchase one. They had to weigh which was more significant in their minds.
"Mr. Hei Ming," Zhang nglong said unhurriedly, "If they can produce a Dao Spiritual Pill, I’m willing to offer another one or another elixir of the sa grade. If they add one, I’ll always add one more than them!"
"Oh ho?" Hei Ming’s face lit up with a smile, wishing that both sides would be more competitive, as he would ultimately be the beneficiary, "But I need to know what capability you have to produce a second Dao Spiritual Pill!"
When Zhang nglong issued this task, it was necessary to have an actual Dao Spiritual Pill as proof. Otherwise, if his efforts were taken advantage of, there would be no place for him to argue.
"I don’t have the ti to refine one at the mont," Zhang nglong casually took out a golden elixir, tossed it lightly into his mouth, and at that mont, the sky flashed with lightning.
Although they didn’t know what Zhang nglong had just swallowed, the phenonon it caused indicated that the elixir was, at the very least, a top-level Saint Grade product.
"What kind of elixir is this?" Hei Ming asked.
"It’s nothing special, just had too many herbs, so I refined it to snack on when bored."
"What! Eating a Saint Grade Elixir like candy?"
"The value of this one pill could probably buy our entire Yanlan Empire, right?"
"Still, Young Master Gu Xiao knows how to have fun!"
"Such a spendthrift!" Among the crowd, only Gu Cong quietly clenched his fists.
"This boy, not very old, but his skills are impressive," Hei Ming Venerable reconsidered his evaluation of Zhang nglong in his mind, "Could he have so unbelievably powerful ntor behind him?"
"Everyone, you’ve seen that the reward from Young Gu Xiao is too generous for to refuse," Hei Ming Venerable said, spreading his hands, "So perhaps you should leave to avoid mutual destruction."
"If it really cos to a fight, I can kill a few of you and then run, at most with a minor injury," Hei Ming Venerable said in a threatening tone, "But which of you will be the ones to die?"
"Oh, by the way, I’m very vengeful, so if I happen to encounter a few disciples of the Divine Profound Hall and kill them in passing, it would be quite reasonable, right?"
"Mr. Hei Ming," Zhang nglong interjected, "I’m not asking them to leave, I’m asking to keep them all here!"
"Hahaha, Young Brother Gu Xiao, you think too highly of ," Hei Ming Venerable shook his head, "Though these old fellows aren’t as strong as , they do have strength in numbers. I alone couldn’t kill them all."
"Don’t worry, Mr. Hei Ming, I’ve considered this. For such a high-difficulty dungeon, naturally, it’s played as a team," Zhang nglong smiled, "As for the rest of the seniors, haven’t you watched enough? How about stepping out to show your presence?"
"Oh, I did underestimate you," Hei Ming, upon hearing this, felt much more confident, "But let be clear, protecting you and the Yanlan Empire is one price, keeping these old goats here is another!"
"Of course!"
"Alright, alright, enough watching the fun, ti to get to work. I want to take the reward and be off soon!"
"A few of you old guys are here too? What exactly did this boy offer you!"
"You’re here too? I rember soone once said nothing in this world was worth acting as a thug for anyone. How co you went back on your word?"
"What can I do, the price offered was too tempting, I’d be struck by lightning not to accept!"
"Exactly, this kind of deal doesn’t co by every day!"
...
As voices appeared one by one, more and more people showed up in the sky above Gu Yang City, each exuding a profound aura.
"17 people, all in the Dao Realm, at least Third Grade, and even four at Fifth Grade Dao Realm!"
The elders of Divine Profound Hall were already sweating profusely. In such circumstances, they could no longer keep their composure. The issue was no longer about whether they could take down Zhang nglong, but if they could escape unscathed.
Although they were many, reaching the Dao Realm was not a simple feat for anyone. These 17 individuals could likely handle twice as many opponents!
Last night, Zhang nglong had anticipated today’s situation when issuing the task. If he was going to create a spectacle, it had to be earth-shattering. So, he invited another group of strong individuals, with the minimum requirent being over Third Grade Dao Realm!
Moreover, everyone’s reward, besides a staggering amount of Divine Crystals, included an additional condition. Be it alchemy or artifact refining, he could achieve what other Alchemists and Artifact Refiners could not.
"Honored seniors," Zhang nglong said, "We agreed on doubling your original reward, help keep these old coots here!"
"Hahaha, as long as the boss can pay the price, even taking on the Divine Profound Hall is negotiable!"
"That’s right, with the right reward, I’ve got all the energy in the world!"
All 17 Dao Realm experts present, even if a few were notorious evildoers, had now beco Zhang nglong’s most competent enforcers, proving once more the powerful allure of money.
"What do we do? Seems like we won’t be able to make a move on this kid today!"
"Run, whoever can run, run for it!"
Suddenly, the fifty elders from the Divine Profound Hall turned and fled.
"Hahaha! None of you will escape!" Zhang nglong laughed as he accepted a communication request.
"What did you say?"
"Is the situation serious? How many people died?"
Zhang nglong’s expression gradually beca serious, then filled with killing intent.
He slowly raised his head, his eyes almost blazing with fire.
"Honored seniors, we agreed on ten tis the reward! Help kill them, leave none alive!"
