"Over ten thousand Crystal Stones containing Chaos Origin."
Even Qin Hao's heart stirred at the sight of so many Crystal Stones. Just as before, when the danger he sensed had not been particularly intense, he would not pass up all those Crystal Stones.
Risk often had to be proportional to reward. If there was only risk and no reward, there was absolutely no need to take the chance—especially when the risk was manageable and the reward far outweighed it.
There was even less reason to pass them up.
Moreover...
Trying to lure me into the palace?
If it had only been a guess before, Qin Hao was now certain.
Someone was definitely trying to lure him in.
And judging by the current situation, that person... most likely could not leave the palace.
Otherwise, they could simply use overwhelming power to kill him. There was no need for all this trouble.
Men die for wealth, and birds die for food. Unfortunately, using this trick against me means you've underestimated me far too much. Qin Hao's expression remained unchanged, and he felt no fear. Instead, intense interest welled up within him.
Since the other party wanted to lure him into the palace with treasures, why couldn't he play the oriole waiting behind the mantis as it stalked the cicada?
He could take the treasures and leave their carefully laid plans in ruins.
After all, so many Crystal Stones containing Chaos Origin would be an enormous help to Qin Hao. Even without the dangerous situation in the Chaos Space, he could still use these Crystal Stones to cultivate in the future.
They would let him achieve twice the results with half the effort.
They could drastically reduce the time he needed to cultivate!
And to Qin Hao right now, time was undoubtedly precious.
