After returning to the Silkworm Imperial City, Xie Feng went straight to find Lu Yuan.
Upon seeing him, the latter immediately became wary.
He stared at Xie Feng and asked unhappily, "What are you doing here again?"
Xie Feng sighed, "Why is everyone so unwelcoming to me? Am I really that unpopular?"
Lu Yuan snorted coldly.
Xie Feng shrugged, unconcerned, and went straight to the point. "Have you found the Python King Blood?"
Lu Yuan's eyes darted around, a hint of guilt in his expression. He covered it up with a cough, saying, "Cough... the difficulties are too great. Can't you give me a few more days?"
After saying that, he suddenly became somewhat annoyed. He was clearly the leader of the Golden Devil Emperor Silkworm Race, so why was he asking Xie Feng for leniency?
Who exactly is the clan leader?!
Xie Feng asked, "So... how's it going?"
Lu Yuan said, "I'm prepared to offer a large reward to find a brave warrior to go to the Heavenly Gu Emperor Python Race!"
"..."
After a moment of silence, Xie Feng was utterly speechless.
He frowned and retorted sharply, "Are you even a clan leader, acting so timid and hesitant? Where's your sense of responsibility? Where's your courage? Where's your domineering spirit?"
Lu Yuan shrugged. " The Heavenly Gu Emperor Python Race is not to be trifled with. If it weren't for Qianying, we would never have provoked them!"
Xie Feng said, "The key is that you didn't provoke her for Qianying's sake..."
Lu Yuan: "..."
"By the way, you just said you were looking for a strong man to go to the Heavenly Gu Emperor Python Race a hefty reward? How much is the reward?" Xie Feng asked curiously.
"The nobles of the Heavenly Gu Emperor Python Race are generally of Python King Blood. A Python King is naturally no ordinary person, hence the extremely high bid: fifty Origin Coin! However, no one has dared to bid yet..."
Lu Yuan shook his head and smiled wryly.
Xie Feng spread his hands. "Give it to me, I'll go get the blood!"
Lu Yuan was stunned. "You're going?"
Xie Feng nodded firmly.
Lu Yuan seemed to realize something, and the corner of his mouth twitched. "Wait, you stole 90 million from me before, and now you want to steal it again? In your eyes, am I some kind of innocent victim?!"
"If you don't want to, go find someone else!" Xie Feng shrugged. Everyone has their little temper.
Is this robbery?
This is about making money honestly and legitimately using your brain!
"I can't find it!" Lu Yuan said defiantly.
"Give me the money, and I'll go!" Xie Feng said.
"..."
Lu Yuan was conflicted. He was worried about the money, and besides, as far as he knew, Xie Feng didn't seem to be that capable.
It's just a Nirvana Realm!
Can one obtain the Python King Blood through unorthodox methods?
A fantasy!
"You dare not collect the Python King Blood, yet you offer a hefty reward for my services, and you hesitate to do it. If I weren't illiterate, I would have scolded you a couple of times today!"
"Three more days until I start refining pills. I absolutely need the Python King Blood! Also, resolving Princess Qianying's backlash constitution is of utmost urgency. Do you want to kill your niece?!"
Xie Feng was getting impatient.
"Stop talking, I'll give it to you!"
Lu Yuan couldn't stand being morally blackmailed. In a moment of madness, he said, "After saying it, you can't go back on your word!"
He reluctantly pulled out a card, adding a final threat, "Only if you guarantee I get the Python King Blood! Otherwise, you'll have to pay me back double!"
"Rest assured!"
Xie Feng accepted it without hesitation, revealing a smug smile. The feeling of extorting someone was simply too satisfying!
No, this isn't extortion; he deserves it!
Getting paid to do something is only right!
Lu Yuan said, "But there's a condition!"
Xie Feng looked up. "What are the conditions?"
Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Don't come looking for me again! Go ahead and scam my brother. You can only take advantage of me; my wallet can't take it!"
"That makes sense!"
Xie Feng nodded, gladly accepting the suggestion.
Lu Yuan waved his hand. "You should leave now!"
Actually, he wanted to tell Xie Feng to get lost, but Xie Feng was an Yu Xiu, and he was counting on Xie Feng to refine pills, so he couldn't turn against him!
Xie Feng waved. "Goodbye!"
Never see you again!
Lu Yuan closed the door expressionlessly.
Xie Feng shook his head, "He's the head of a clan, after all. Why is he always throwing tantrums? Unlike me, I'm handsome and kind-hearted!"
When Qianying heard that Xie Feng was leaving the Golden Devil Emperor Silkworm Race, she was very reluctant to part with him, so she made a special trip to the priest's temple to see him.
"Teacher, are you leaving?"
"Um."
Where are you going?
"Looking for medicinal herbs!"
"Then... can I come with you?"
Qianying bit her lower lip lightly, raised her eyes, and asked with some anticipation.
Xie Feng shook his head.
Qianying's eyes dimmed, and she lowered her head, saying, "Alright!"
Although they had only known each other for three days, she already knew that Xie Feng was a person who appeared gentle but was actually decisive and resolute.
Once he's made up his mind, very few people can change it!
Xie Feng gazed at Qianying, paused, and asked, "Princess, do you like me very much?"
Qianying blushed and nodded slightly. "Mm!"
Xie Feng smiled and said, "Then keep this feeling in your heart!"
If this princess discovers that half of their queen's silkworm cocoon has been absorbed by him, they will likely become bitter enemies.
The queen's silkworm cocoon is equivalent to the fate of the nation!
Qianying fell silent, then looked up and asked inquisitively, "Teacher, do you have someone you like? In a romantic way!"
Xie Feng's eyes flickered.
He shook his head.
A light shone in Qianying's eyes. She stretched out her right hand in a gesture of encouragement, "Hehe, then I still have hope!"
Xie Feng smiled calmly. He didn't even know who he liked. Perhaps he had already met his destined woman, or perhaps she was still far away...
Xie Feng returned to the Demon Spirit Domain from the Dragon Calcining Domain. As soon as he entered the Xuanji Sect, he heard Gu Yuan wailing.
At this moment, this confidant of the Devil Emperor was hanging from a tree, and his four disciples were beating him mercilessly, each punch landing squarely on his skin!
ah!
Ugh!
Ugh!
The mighty Evil Lord is now letting out an indescribable howl...
Beside them, Sushang covered her mouth and chuckled, while Yue Heng leaned against a tree, arms crossed, a faint smile playing on his lips.
She has already been sent to the Xuanji Sect by Little Sword.
Xie Feng walked over and said with a smile, "This punching bag is pretty good, it can take a beating."
When Gu Yuan saw him, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly cried out for help, "Brother Xie, save me!"
Xie Feng calmly replied, "You are a demon, and demons are not afraid of death."
Gu Yuan said with a mournful face, "I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of pain!"
Xie Feng laughed and said, "I'm not in pain, you guys continue!"
Gu Yuan: "..."
What does it mean to make friends unwisely?
That's it!
Sushang hurried over to untie Gu Yuan, her almond-shaped eyes smiling as she explained, "Brother, we didn't bully Brother Gu. He said he was feeling embarrassed because he had plenty to eat and drink at the Xuanji Sect and wanted to find some work, so he volunteered to be the punching bag. We really didn't bully him!"
Ze Ling and the other three nodded in unison. "Really not!"
Yue Heng nodded as well.
Little Sword over, "I can testify too, no one bullied this demon king! Hahaha..."
It let out a treacherous laugh.
Ever since learning that Gu Yuan was Ge Ya's confidant, Little Sword harbored a desire for revenge and would frequently oppose him. He simply wanted to disgust this devil!
Gu Yuan pointed at Little Sword: "You did it!"
If not for the Extreme Dao Sword, no one in the Xuanji Sect, except Sushang, could have bound him.
Sushang is a well-behaved child; naturally, he wouldn't do such a barbaric thing.
