"I command you as a noble of the Human Emperor Manor of Shiva Continent!"
"You get only four hundred thousand purple pearls! Kill Tongtian at once, or don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
Gong Quan was about to explode with rage!
This fellow actually dared to haggle with him?
Damn it, that hadn't been the price before he stepped into the arena!
Under everyone's watching eyes,
Shiva Continent had utterly lost face. Not just its Human Emperor Manor-even the experts from all its sects felt disgraced!

Before Gu Lei could agree, an angry roar rang out from Shiva Continent's side.
Gong Quan stamped his feet in fury. Tongtian was openly poaching his man!
"The Human Emperor Manor of Shiva Continent will pay five hundred thousand purple pearls!"
"But I want you to kill Tongtian immediately! Even if you die fighting, you must never concede!"
"We cultivators of Shiva Continent cannot afford this disgrace!"

"Five hundred thousand purple pearls is more than your four hundred thousand, after all."
With that, a formidable aura suddenly erupted from Gu Lei, even stronger than when they had fought earlier!
At the sight, Tongtian didn't
