At night, Mu Yue interrogated Anrokuzan alone.
"Tell me the secret technique you used to absorb the Dragon Vein's power. Then I can let you die quickly," Mu Yue said calmly.
That was all the value Anrokuzan had left to him.
"Hahaha, so that's it. You want the Dragon Vein's power too." Anrokuzan laughed loudly.
Having fallen into such a situation, he had already been despairing, believing that death was inevitable. He had not expected to find another chance to survive.
Though Mu Yue's words sounded ruthless, Anrokuzan did not take them seriously. He understood people like Mu Yue, those who pursued power, far too well.
"Release me, and then we can kill the Queen of Rōran together. Her daughter can control the Dragon Vein's power too, and she'll be even easier to control. When the time comes, I can give you sixty percent of the Dragon Vein's power. I'll only take forty percent." Anrokuzan made his proposal in a highly tempting tone.
"You're already so powerful. If you absorb that much Dragon Vein power as well, you'll definitely become invincible in the ninja world. At that point, you'll be the only king of the ninja world. Calling you the second Sage of Six Paths would not be an exaggeration."
If Mu Yue agreed to his conditions, Anrokuzan truly would teach him the secret technique for absorbing Dragon Vein energy.
Of course, Anrokuzan was not that kind-hearted. Only half of what he said was true. If Mu Yue really dared to use that secret technique to absorb Dragon Vein energy with an ordinary body, he would only absorb himself to death.
When that happened, Anrokuzan would not have to do anything. Once Mu Yue died, he could take the Dragon Vein energy within his body.
"You still want forty percent?"
