In the secret chamber, Lin Mo’s sword-like brows were slightly furrowed, and a complex expression appeared on his face. He had been so focused on dealing with the Double-headed Prison Crocodile that he didn’t notice soone hiding in the back. Yun Xi and Fan Dong exchanged a glance, then their eyes were tightly fixed on the deep, black passage. About dozens of people erged from it, with the lowest cultivation at Star System Level Early Stage, divided into three groups, appearing in the secret chamber
within.
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind." Zhong Shiming’s face was grim, his pupils slightly contracting.
"Big brother, these people seem hard to deal with!" Hu Ben hid behind Hu Lie, glanced at the people coming out of the passage, and his whole body trembled slightly.
"You don’t need to say it; it seems the task entrusted by the City Lord can’t be completed this ti." Hu Lie frowned tightly, muttering softly. The leaders of the three groups were two n and a woman. The two n looked middle-aged, wore luxurious robes, and each exuded an overwhelmingly powerful aura. Both middle-aged n were Star Domain Level Early Stage experts
. As for the woman, she looked very young and alluring. For cultivators like her, it was not difficult to use so Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to maintain their youthful appearance. The woman wore a long purple gauze dress, bare-footed, and showed off fragrant shoulders
, with an extrely seductive and alluring appearance; every frown and smile seed capable of capturing souls.
"Uncle Heng Yi, Uncle Feng Ji, Sister Jiang..." Yun Xi laughed stiffly upon seeing the three appear, calling out.
"These three are the City Lords of the southern, western, and northern cities. The situation is quite unfavorable." Fan Dong, standing beside Lin Mo, transmitted a secret technique.
Lin Mo nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the three City Lords. These three were all Star Domain Level Early Stage experts, and every one of them was no weaker than Cheng Jiao!
Behind them, they also had more than a dozen Star System Level personal guards!
In these circumstances, Yun Xi’s side appeared greatly disadvantaged.
"Yun Xi." Heng Yi glanced at Yun Xi, with a half-smile, he said: "It seems the rumors are true; Cheng Jiao indeed suffered heavy injuries, otherwise why would he only send a junior like you to retrieve the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’?"
"Too bad I didn’t expect the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; it worked out in our favor." Another middle-aged man with a peculiar mark on his brows sneered. Yun Xi frowned and stepped forward, saying, "Uncles, Sister Jiang, this ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ is very important to my father, and he discovered this place first. It was my father who injured the Netherworld Beast here, which gave us the chance to obtain the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’
. Do you all intend to snatch the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’?" "Yun Xi, you should be aware of the rules of the Dark Demon Sea. Although your father, like us, is one of the City Lords of the four major cities on the Sky City Continent, who knows how many tis everyone has fought over treasures. You can’t be naive enough to think your words would make us give up this ’Ghost Fla Fruit’, right?" Heng Yi sneered.
After hearing his words, the atmosphere in the secret chamber beca significantly more tense.
Snatch?
If they really wanted to snatch, Yun Xi’s team had only Master Jiu Xiang as a Star Domain Level Early Stage expert, and in terms of combat power, they certainly couldn’t compete with Heng Yi and the others. If they fought, the chances of victory were very low!
"The Ghost Fla Fruit is very precious; I don’t want to give it up either, Niece Yun Xi, I’m sorry." Feng Ji smiled faintly, yet a trace of greed flickered in his eyes.
The ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ can enhance the soul; who would easily give up such a treasure!
The only female City Lord among the three was nad Jiang Rushi. Jiang Rushi floated in the air, her body slowly moving out as she reached out a delicate hand to lightly cover her alluring mouth, laughing softly: "Sister Yun Xi, Sister Jiang isn’t that bad. There is only one ’Ghost Fla Fruit’, so I won’t take it. As for
these two, I can’t control them."
"Thank you, Sister Jiang." Yun Xi glanced at Jiang Rushi.
Although Jiang Rushi backed out of the competition, dealing with Heng Yi and Feng Ji was still very challenging.
Yun Xi bit her silver teeth and said, "Uncle Heng Yi, Uncle Feng Ji, if you let take the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ back, I will definitely inform my father, and at that ti, so treasures or Netherworld Stones will surely be given to you as compensation."
"We lack neither treasures nor Netherworld Stones, but the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ won’t be easily given up," Heng Yi shook his head.
"Such a treasure that can enhance soul strength, can’t be exchanged for Netherworld Stones," Feng Ji shook his head.
Seeing this situation, Yun Xi pressed her lips tightly, her willow-leaf eyebrows knitted together.
Fan Dong, Zhong Shiming, Hu Lie, and Hu Ben’s faces also beca extrely grim. To get the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’, they had risked their lives defeating the Double-headed Prison Crocodile, nearly perishing in the Beast’s jaws.
Now, seeing the treasure almost in hand, they were supposed to hand it over to others; who would be willing?
But, facing the three City Lords, even if they were unwilling, they had no choice.
Crack
Standing beside the Green Tree, Master Jiu Xiang was fully absorbed in controlling the Netherworld Power Array, emitting fine strands of Netherworld Power from his palm, completely enveloping the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’, carefully plucking it with Netherworld Power.
Montarily, Heng Yi, Feng Ji, and Jiang Rushi’s eyes simultaneously flickered with a bright gleam.
"Yun Xi, hand over the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ to us, for old ti’s sake, we won’t make things difficult for you," Heng Yi squinted slightly, extending his hand slowly.
"Yun Xi, I used up a lot of Netherworld Power just now; if we really fight, we have no advantage," Master Jiu Xiang transmitted.
Yun Xi furrowed her delicate brows, her pretty face turning anxious. Was she really going to give up?
She wasn’t willing, they nearly died here for the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’.
Moreover, her father needed the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ to quickly recover from internal dark injuries.
As everyone fell silent, a figure slowly stepped out from behind Yun Xi, standing between the two groups, Yun Xi’s beautiful eyes widened, and the others imdiately focused their gazes on him.
"This guy, he dares to stand out in this situation?" Zhong Shiming squeezed his fist, a hint of coldness in his pupils.
"Big brother, does this guy have a screw loose? Can he really speak up in this situation?" Hu Ben glanced at his brother Hu Lie, whispering, harboring deep resentnt towards Lin Mo.
Hu Lie’s gaze was ardently fixed on Lin Mo, sowhat surprised this guy dared to step forward. "You three must be the City Lords of the other three cities?" Lin Mo looked at the three in front of him indifferently and said, "However, there is only one ’Ghost Fla Fruit’; even if you three get it, how will you divide it? From what I understand, the ’Ghost Fla Fruit’ can only be consud directly, and if you try to cut it, the entire fruit will completely disintegrate." Heng Yi, Feng Ji, and Jiang Rushi’s gazes fell on him, all three slightly surprised. The young man before them was just a Star System Level Early Stage cultivator, yet he dared negotiate with them!
