An Utterly Ordinary Transaction Process
Upon hearing these disrespectful words from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, many proud members of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan were enraged.
"Who is it? Who is spouting such nonsense outside?"
"Don't worry, the strong members of our clan will show him just how high the sky is!"
"Yeah, I don't know which idiot dared to suggest we accept Dou Sheng Elder!"
"Have our Elder gone out?"
"I don't think so!"
Suddenly someone shouted, "The Clan Leader is here!"
"Greetings, Clan Leader!"
"Hmm!" Huang Tian nodded slightly in response, then waved his hand to let the rest of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan leave.
His expression was rather grim. Although many people thought the people outside were just a bunch of lunatics, Huang Tian didn't believe that anyone would be foolish enough to fabricate such a significant event.
Therefore, there is only one outcome...
Thunder Phoenix and the other three have really been captured!
Just then, a lazy voice rang out. "The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's Dou Sheng Exhibition, come and see it quickly!"
"Bastard!" How dare someone insult the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan like this? They deserve to die.
"Elder of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, follow me to meet the enemy!" As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Tian took the lead and directly passed through the boundary wall of the Demon Phoenix Domain, appearing in the Void Space.
Two figures in white came into view, one lying on his side on the ground without any regard for appearances, looking at them with a mocking gaze.
Another person sat quietly cross-legged, eyes closed and silent. Only when he sensed Huang Tian's arrival did he open his eyes and look at the scene with an expressionless gaze.
However, what angered Huang Tian the most was the four Thunder Phoenix who were placed haphazardly together next to him and were under a restriction.
The usually arrogant Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix all had long faces. When Huang Tian came to them, they were initially delighted, but then lowered their heads in great shame.
"You must be Huang Tian, the patriarch of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan!" The white-robed man who had been lying down stood up and asked with a smile.
"Who are you?" Huang Tian's eyes narrowed, and he asked with some caution. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the person opposite him exuded the aura of Five-Star Dou Sheng in the early stage.
Although he was not as strong as Huang Tian himself, he was still a rare expert. As for the possibility that the person in front of him was the Ice Saint, he ruled that out immediately.
Just kidding. Even if Huang Tian had never seen the Ice Saint in person, how could a young man who was only a little over a hundred years old have cultivated to the level of Five-Star Dou Sheng? Did he think this was just a folk tale?
In Huang Tian's mind, it was highly likely that Lei Thunder Phoenix and his companions had become arrogant and offended these two powerful reclusive experts, which led to their capture and being brought to the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan for an explanation.
Before we start fighting, we should make sure to find out the other person's name. If there's some connection, there's still room for discussion. Let's protect these few good-for-nothings first!
Unexpectedly...
Upon hearing Huang Tian's question, Thunder Phoenix and the others, who had previously been almost invisible, spoke up. The latter exclaimed indignantly, "Clan leader, he is the Langya Pavilion Master — the Ice Saint!"
"The Ice Saint?" Huang Tian's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in disbelief as his mind trembled.
"What, Clan Chief Huang Tian, have you heard of my reputation as a 'little nobody'?" Xiao Han said with a gentle smile.
"A nobody?" Huang Tian steadied himself and sneered, "You are no nobody. Over the years, the only forces and powerful individuals that the Soul Hall has asked for help to deal with are Langya Pavilion and you."
"Then this young man thanks Clan Chief Huang Tian for the praise!" Xiao Han said with a slight smile, appearing harmless.
"Speak, what brings you here?" Huang Tian's eyes flickered. "You're not here as a guest of my clan, are you?"
"Visiting as guests?" Xiao Han asked, feigning doubt, gesturing towards Huang Tian's back. "So the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's welcoming ceremony is this impressive?"
As expected of one of the Three Great Families in the Monster Beast World with a long history, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan was as powerful as Xiao Han sensed. The dozens of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan members behind Huang Tian were all at least Five Star Dou Zun, and there were even two or three Half-Saint among them.
Even Xiao Han is probably only a part of it, which shows the true strength of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
"No need for further words, just tell me how you want to release Thunder Phoenix and the other three," Huang Tian said coldly.
"Oh?" Xiao Han was slightly surprised. "Clan Chief Huang Tian, won't you try to rescue these people?"
"Name your terms!" Huang Tian had no intention of wasting words with Xiao Han.
If Xiao Han and his group were weak, Huang Tian might actually consider it.
But the former was only slightly weaker than him, and he was sure that the guy opposite him could kill all four of Thunder Phoenix's people before he succeeded.
Moreover, Huang Tian was also clear that since the other party was willing to bring Thunder Phoenix and the others to him, they were naturally there to negotiate terms. They could just get straight to the point. Huang Tian admitted that he had misjudged the situation and would accept the loss.
"Great job! As expected of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan!" Xiao Han clapped his hands, praising Huang Tian highly.
After a while, Xiao Han said, "Give me Ninth Grade Pill from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan's inventory!"
"How many?"
"Twenty!"
"Get out!" Huang Tian roared, "You're too greedy! You actually want twenty Ninth Grade Pill!"
"How much can you offer?" Xiao Han didn't mind. After all, it was a business deal. It was the right thing to do for the other party to negotiate a lower price.
"At most ten Grade Ninth Grade Treasure Pill," Huang Tian said arrogantly.
"Ten?" Xiao Han muttered for a moment, then shook his head. "You're supposed to be the head of a clan, how come your bid isn't even as generous as that of Supreme Elder Thunder Phoenix?"
Hearing Xiao Han's teasing, Huang Tian glanced at Thunder Phoenix with a slightly strange expression, only to see the latter's face turn red as she glared at Xiao Han through gritted teeth.
"Ten is the most I can offer. My Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan would never give out more than Ninth Grade Pill." Huang Tian's bottom line was quite firm.
"Really?"
"Whoosh!" Xiao Han condensed Ice Spear in his hand and slowly thrust it toward Thunder Phoenix and the others, about to use this tried-and-true move again.
"Wait, you can offer other terms." Even though she knew Xiao Han was unlikely to make a move, Huang Tian didn't dare to gamble and could only humiliatingly raise the price.
"Very good!" Xiao Han was very excited. He threw a Scroll at Huang Tian, who caught it with ease.
"Hmm?" Huang Tian opened the Scroll, looked at it carefully, and frowned involuntarily. He looked up at Xiao Han and said, "This is too much, especially the Demon Phoenix Blood Jade. I can only give you five portions at most."
The Demon Phoenix Blood Jade is a specialty of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan Demon Phoenix Blood Pool Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan members and is also the main ingredient in some elixirs. It is extremely precious, and even the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan has very little of it in stock.
"Then state your terms!" Xiao Han said casually, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"This is the final offer from my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan." In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Huang Tian informed Xiao Han of the price he was willing to pay.
"Make a deal."
"Wait a minute!"
Because there were so many things, it took a full hour to gather them all. To Xiao Han's surprise, Huang Tian remained completely calm and well-behaved throughout, showing no signs of suddenly becoming violent.
"Then thank you very much for the gift, Clan Chief Huang Tian." Xiao Han clasped his hands in a fist salute to Huang Tian and said with a smile. Then he turned around and tore open space with the Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice to leave.
