Nakedly taking advantage of an ergency.
Although Lu Qingshan inwardly scorned this, he did not forget to pretend on the surface.
His expression kept changing, portraying a conflicted and struggling deanor.
anwhile, Chi Li remained leisurely.
He did not urge Lu Qingshan to make a decision, appearing completely relaxed.
"Thank you for your offer, Lord, but Qing Ge really isn’t comfortable with having these strange insects in his body, it’s unsettling.
So I must decline your kind offer," after pondering for a mont, Lu Qingshan "reluctantly" refused.
If Chi Li wanted him to agree to yield various resources and benefits of the Sen Luo King Realm in the future, he wouldn’t mind.
He could simply walk away when the ti cos; if Chi Li wanted to collect his dues, he’d have to seek out Qing Ge in the Netherworld.
But the conditions Chi Li proposed now specifically targeted him, sothing Lu Qingshan could not accept.
That’s right, the cultivation system of the Human Race is different from that of the Demon Race, not based on bloodlines, so the Blood Erosion Worm seed harmless to him.
Yet, who could guarantee there wouldn’t be hidden dangers within?
No one has tried it; no one can guarantee it.
Moreover, didn’t the Spirit Crystal from the Abyss help him achieve the ultimate breakthrough of Ten Flowers?
Thus, the likelihood of the Blood Erosion Worm harming the Human Cultivators is high.
Besides, who knows if the Blood Erosion Worm Chi Li presented was actually just a simple Blood Erosion Worm?
If it had other chanisms or designs?
Lu Qingshan did not trust Chi Li’s character.
In summary, he wouldn’t take the risk of being controlled, nor would he dare to put the Demon Race’s poisonous insects into his body casually.
Feeling confident about his prospect, Chi Li’s smile stiffened.
After a while, he regained his composure and reminded, "Ying Jie is just beginning his actions.
Today he asks for two human girls from you; if you give them, tomorrow he’ll ask for the Blood Divine Sand Vein... there’ll be no end.
But if you don’t give them, he’ll use it as a reason to bother you."
"If no one speaks for you, this targeted hassle is sothing you cannot handle."
"In the Royal City, there are few who could speak on your behalf before Ying Jie at this ti," Chi Li advised, "I should be considered one of the sincere few."
"Why don’t you reconsider?"
"Though your words are kind, Qing Ge truly can’t accept these conditions you’ve proposed, Lord," Lu Qingshan said flatly.
Chi Li’s expression changed slightly, he sat back thinking deeply.
Eventually, he rose angrily, and flung his sleeves, "Since you refuse this condition, I have nothing more to say, I’ll take my leave."
"However," before turning to leave, Chi Li paused and added coldly, "I am still willing to give you a chance.
If you regret your decision in so ti, you can still co to then; my offer will still stand."
Chi Li believed Qing Ge refused today because he hadn’t yet reached a desperate situation.
The circumstances weren’t dire enough.
Chi Li arrived too early.
When Ying Jie continues to press, Qing Ge will eventually agree to his terms.
After all, Qing Ge had already shown considerable hesitation when facing his proposal.
"I understand," Lu Qingshan nodded in response, "Thank you, Lord Chi Li."
"Hmph!" Chi Li snorted coldly and left with a hint of frustration.
...
"Ying Jie!" After Chi Li left, Lu Qingshan growled.
His killing intent surged, icy cold, making the hall filled with a chilling atmosphere.
"You really think I have no way out?"
Everyone thought that facing Ying Jie’s pressure, he was nothing but an ant, a filthy bug, unable to resist.
"They all believe I can’t break free on my own, don’t they..."
His eyes glead with cold light, "Then just wait and see."
Lu Qingshan awaited the opportunity for a dramatic counterattack.
It wouldn’t be far off.
