A middle-aged man’s face was paler than usual, with a short stubble on his face.
“Which faction are you from?”
The man in the black robe said in a deep voice, “Knowing too much will do you no good!”
“Huh, I’ve killed your men, why would I be afraid to know more? Are you going to tell me or not?”
The Golden Giant Dragon started to retract, the pair of eyes on the dragon head shine brightly, exuding overwhelming pressure.
“Even if you kill me, I have nothing to say!”
The man in the black robe remained resolute.
Xu Yan knitted his eyebrows, considering whether or not to use some method to torture the other party into spilling secrets.
However, the man in the black robe coldly said, “Don’t even think about getting any information out of me. You know Su Lingxiu, don’t you? Hand her over, and we can talk. Otherwise…”
Xu Yan had a smile on his face, “Su Lingxiu? Are you talking about this girl?”
He took out a picture of Su Lingxiu, chuckling, “I don’t know her, but the hundred thousand Spirit Crystals were too tempting. Besides, you guys are too easy to fool.”
He certainly wouldn’t admit that he knew Su Lingxiu because the matter involved great consequences. Once it leaked out, he would be watched by others, and these others are Great Grandmasters.
Unless he breaks through the Innate Realm and no longer fears the threat of the Great Grandmasters, he would be able to act without any restraint.
The man in the black robe knitted his eyebrows. He looked at Xu Yan, who seemed not to be lying. He was inwardly angry. This man dared to kill a Grandmaster, his strength was extremely formidable, particularly this golden dragon, he did not know which Cultivation Technique it was created from.
He must no doubt be a disciple of the Demon Sect.
In the Demon Sect, aside from Martial Artists who cultivate life-ending techniques, there are also some guys with eccentric personalities, weird behaviors, and even unusual quirks.
And this man here, clearly belongs to this group.
“Sir, which Demon Lord are you serving under?”
The man in the black robe coldly asked.
He was fully aware that the pair behind him had a strong backing. If they dare to kill, they must have a powerful ally, and the greatest ally among the Demon Sect is the nine Demon Lords!
“I have nothing to say!”
Seeing this, Xu Yan chose not to explain.
If they misunderstood him for being from the Demon Sect, let them misunderstand. After all, he had some conflicts with the Demon Sect.
With a wave of his hand, the golden dragon disappeared.
“You may go!”
The man in the black robe was taken aback, surprised that the other party would actually let him leave.
“Sir, are you not afraid?”
Xu Yan sneered, “Afraid of what? They’re just Grandmasters. They’re nothing but common folk. I can shatter one with just one slap. Since I promised to release you once 1 obtain what I want, I wouldn’t go back on my word!”
“I bid you farewell!”
The man in the black robe moved swiftly and disappeared into the distance.
Xu Yan watched him leave. Without making a sound, he followed the man’s tracks.
If he couldn’t extract information from the man by interrogation, he would play the long game.
“The enemy of my junior sister seems to be very rich. If I wipe them out, would I still have to worry about not having Spirit Crystals? Not only can I help my junior sister vent her anger but also gain Spirit Crystals. It’s a win-win situation!”
Xu Yan was thrilled.
Outside Qinglin City, a carriage was stopped in a dense forest.
Meng Shushu stepped out of the carriage. Now that he had removed his disguise, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had encountered several people seeking after him during his long journey, but he managed to avoid them all thanks to Meng Chong’s bravery. The pursuers didn’t expect him to hire a Grandmaster as a coachman, assuming that the one in the carriage might be a Great Grandmaster.
Meng Shushu never thought that Meng Chong, whom he found strong and fierce, suitable for taking care of valuables, turned out to be a Grandmaster Martial Artist.
At this moment, he was somewhat worried.
He feared that Meng Chong would be tempted by greed and rob him.
No matter how he looked at it, Meng Chong seemed like a guy who would do anything for money.
What slightly eased his mind was that Meng Chong seemed to have principles, he probably wouldn’t resort to robbery.
“Brother Meng Chong, this is the storage receipt from Tianbao Pavilion. Once you get to Qinglin City, you can use it to retrieve the stored item. Just say it’s your weapon.”
Meng Shushu handed a silver receipt to Meng Chong.
Meng Chong examined the receipt, which was made of a material similar to a spirit note, stamped with the words ‘Tianbao Pavilion’ on it.
In the middle was an image of a storage box.
And four small words in the bottom left corner.
“Retrieve item with receipt!”
On the back, there were some numbers, probably the number of the stored item.
“No problem, where’s my payment?”
Meng Chong put away the receipt, asked with a smile on his face.
Meng Shushu took out another receipt, “I’ve deposited three Grade 8 Spiritual
Medicines here…”
After a thought, Meng Shushu gritted his teeth, “All of it is yours, consider it payment for this trip!”
“That’s the spirit, you can count on me. I will get everything intact!”
Meng Chong replied with joy.
“In that case, Brother Meng, 1’11 have to trouble you!”
Meng Shushu bowed his hand.
“All right, just wait for me here.”
Meng Chong couldn’t wait to go to Qinglin City.
Qinglin City is much more prosperous than Iron Mountain County, and Tianbao Pavilion is larger. Occasionally, you can see a top-notch Martial Artist entering it. This is something you can hardly see in Iron Mountain County.
The strength of the Martial Artists in Iron Mountain County is simply too weak.
Not even one Grandmaster.
Meng Chong walked into Tianbao Pavilion and was greeted by a maid.
“To collect something!”
Meng Chong took out the pawn ticket.
The maid took the pawn ticket and after glancing at its number, smiled and said: “Esteemed guest, please follow me.”
Meng Chong followed the maid into the back hall of Tianbao Pavilion and into a storage room.
“May 1 ask, esteemed guest, what is the item you’ve stored?”
“My weapon!”
The maid nodded, took the pawn ticket, and went to the back of the storage room, into a small room.
After opening it, the maid made a gesture of invitation, “Esteemed guest, please take your stored item!”
Meng Chong looked inside and saw a pile of black hammers in the small room.
The polygonal hammerhead was only slightly smaller than a carriage wheel. Meng Chong was surprised. It’s no wonder Meng Shushu asked him to retrieve the stored items.
Only a robust man like him is more suitable to use such a weapon and it wouldn’t raise suspicion.
Meng Chong stepped forward and picked up two hammers.
Upon gripping them, his eyes flashed. The hammers were lighter than he expected, not entirely solid, but the hammerhead was quite thick and not exactly light.
“What’s hidden inside?”
Meng Chong wondered.
He came out with the hammers and handed the receipt for the Spiritual
Medicine to the maid, asking, “I want to check what’s inside.”
The maid looked at the pawn ticket and smiled, “Very well, esteemed guest, please follow me.”
The storage room for the Spiritual Medicine was another room, full of tightly packed drawers.
The maid went to the drawer marked by the pawn ticket number, opened it, and took out a box from inside.
“Esteemed guest, these are three Grade Eight Spiritual Medicines.”
The maid opened the box to let Meng Chong confirm.
“Would you like to take them out, esteemed guest?”
Meng Chong glanced at the Spiritual Medicine in the box. The three Grade Eight Spiritual Medicines were all the same, some type of flower, not big, and convenient to carry around.
“Take them out.”
The maid put away the pawn ticket, took out the Spiritual Medicine, and handed it to him.
The Spiritual Medicine was sealed with a thin film, which can lock in the medicinal properties to prevent them from dissipating, making them easy to preserve. This is a unique method of preserving Spiritual Medicine exclusively used by Tianbao Pavilion.
The three Spiritual Medicines were put in a small bag. Meng Chong took it and put it in his breast pocket.
“Take care, esteemed guest!”
The maid bid Meng Chong farewell.
“With so many treasures stored in the vault of Tianbao Pavilion, aren’t they afraid of being robbed?”
Meng Chong was somewhat puzzled.
However, Tianbao Pavilion has a strong power and most likely strong individuals are guarding behind the scenes. Furthermore, considering the strength of Tianbao Pavilion, no powerful person would dare to have such thoughts.
Perhaps even Great Grandmasters would not dare.
Meng Chong carried the two hammers out of Tianbao Pavilion, and people on the street evaded him, keeping their distance. This burly man was clearly not someone to be trifled with.
The two big hammers alone were intimidating!
Meng Chong carried the hammers out of Qinglin City. Despite his fast pace, he made sure to pay attention to whether anyone was following him as he hurried back to his meeting place with Meng Shushu.
When he arrived at the rendezvous, he only saw the carriage, not Meng Shushu. Meng Chong frowned and sensed his surroundings, then directed his gaze towards a certain direction and said, “Master, come out, there’s no one tailing me!”
Meng Shushu came over from behind a big tree, looking relieved, and his face lit up with joy at the sight of the two hammers.
“Thank you, Brother Meng.”
Finally, the items were retrieved.
Meng Shushu took the two hammers and put them in the carriage, saying, “Brother Meng, the deal is complete. I’ll take my leave!”
“Sure thing, Master, if you have any profitable ventures in the future, remember to find me!”
Meng Chong nodded.
“Of course, of course!”
Meng Shushu quickly agreed.
He then hurriedly drove away in his carriage..
