Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl-Chapter 1797: Skinning River!
Chapter 1797: Chapter 1797: Skinning River!
In the end, Jiang Xiaobai still didn’t figure out what was going on with this Li Tian.
He thought the other party had already figured out his identity, but on second thought, it shouldn’t be.
Could it be that...
This guy is really afraid of him?
Actually, Li Tian really was like that. He knew that one of the personal disciples of the Demon Emperor Palace was slain by Jiang Xiaobai, so he didn’t dare to be reckless.
The other party was so fearlessly bold, he must have some backing.
Moreover, being the Hallowed Son of the Starstone Empire, his identity is extremely significant. Under such circumstances, the Demon Emperor Palace cannot compete at all.
Even considering the Demon Sovereign behind them, it’s still not possible.
He doesn’t believe that after provoking the Starstone Empire, the Demon Sovereign would help them. After all, the Demon Sovereign is not actually any elder of their Demon Emperor Palace.
The Demon Emperor Palace is merely his dog.
"Jiang Shengzi, we originally planned to announce that in Qinglan City, underneath this manor, a secret realm appeared which attracted Jiang Xiaobai. And then, we’d trap him like a turtle in a jar."
"But looking at the situation now, with so many Supreme beings appearing, this method may not work. If these Supremes believe the rumors, it will be hard for our Demon Emperor Palace to explain..."
Hearing Li Tian’s words, Jiang Xiaobai was momentarily stunned.
What the... Was this a lucky guess, or had Li Tian allied with the foreign tribes long ago?
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai scrutinized Li Tian, making Li Tian feel a bit nervous and confused.
He wondered if this guy had his eyes on him.
Even the people beside Jiang Xiaobai were looking at Li Tian with full vigilance.
After all, it was too much of a coincidence. Li Tian specifically chose this place and planned to spread such a rumor.
It turned out there really was a big problem under the manor, a secret realm indeed, but that’s the Void City, not just anyone can go there!
If Jiang Xiaobai hadn’t used the guise of the Starstone Empire’s Hallowed Son to sneak in today, and they had really spread the message, he might have come.
By then, the Void City would erupt, and the problem would be huge.
Unlike now, they were well prepared, and Jiang Xiaobai wasn’t worried about any foreign trick).
"Ahem, Jiang Shengzi this is..." Li Tian awkwardly smiled, "I was just saying, if Shengzi you don’t want to, it’s okay."
"Want to, who says I don’t want to?"
Jiang Xiaobai immediately said, "Here’s the thing, give me three days to think about it. Anyway, by then Jiang Xiaobai will definitely be drawn here."
He stroked his chin and suddenly said, "Why not say there’s a hidden treasure here, in a sealed state, that none of you can open?"
"According to my understanding of Jiang Xiaobai, this guy is someone whose greed knows no bounds. This might very well draw him in."
Upon hearing this, Li Tian and the others’ eyes lit up, it seemed to make sense!
Jiang Xiaobai is really someone who goes wherever there’s excitement!
This message could indeed be spread, and at worst, their Demon Emperor Palace could actually bring out a treasure.
If any Supremes do come looking, at least they’ll have an explanation.
But the main goal is to attract Jiang Xiaobai here!
"We can use my treasure for this."
Jiang Xiaobai said, looking at Ao Feng.
Ao Feng, who had been suppressing his aura and acting as if invisible, was stunned by Jiang Xiaobai’s gaze.
What the... what’s the meaning of this?
Is this how you use someone else’s favor?
"Ahem, I indeed have a treasure in my possession, also in a sealed state, just right to give it a try."
Reluctantly, Ao Feng sighed and brought out a pearl.
It was indeed a treasure of the Dragon Tribe, also sealed, with no apparent immediate use.
Yet, the moment the treasure appeared, Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes couldn’t move away from the pearl.
It was like the gaze of a little perv on seeing a beautiful woman!
Ao Feng felt as if his heart was about to stop.
You bastard, trying to use my favor while scheming on my treasure?
"Ahem!"
With a fierce cough, Ao Feng gave Jiang Xiaobai a fierce look, making him retract his gaze with an awkward smile.
"Here, Sect Master Li Tian, the treasure is this one; as for how to publicize it, that’s up to you guys."
Seeing there was really a treasure, and Jiang Xiaobai was genuinely willing to help, Li Tian readily agreed!
He eagerly nodded, put the treasure away, and continued preparing a meeting to discuss how to cleverly but not overtly draw Jiang Xiaobai in.
As for the main focus, Jiang Xiaobai, he was watching them with a smiling face.
"Just to clarify, this treasure is very important to me as well, you can tell how precious it is."
"Yes, yes, Jiang Shengzi’s possession, naturally it’s no ordinary item!" Li Tian hurriedly said.
"Since you’re aware, let me just say this straight, I can’t let my treasure be used for free, can I?"
At these words, everyone was stunned.
What the... were you waiting for this?
"Let’s calculate this: lending the treasure is a fee, insurance is another fee, and if you fail to deal with Jiang Xiaobai and need me to take action, that’s another fee; of course, you pay this money first, more refund if less needed."
"I’m a person who keeps my word and am truly honest, anyone can see my character, right?"
Jiang Xiaobai said with full sincerity.
The audience, consisting of powerful figures and Li Tian, were all thrown into chaos.
They didn’t know what to say.
This guy’s shameless.
"Moreover, performance fees, external assistance fees, scene-stabilizing fees, and so much more... let’s ignore those, just smooth things over for you."
"How about a hundred million Immortal Crystals?"
"This won’t be too difficult for you, right?"
Jiang Xiaobai looked at the crowd, his face full of kindness.
Li Tian’s mouth twitched, slightly opening his mouth: "Uh, Jiang Shengzi, I suddenly feel..."
"Hmm?" Jiang Xiaobai tilted his head.
Beside him, Ao Feng released a little aura.
Even though it was just a little, everyone realized, damn, it’s a Supreme!
With a Supreme powerhouse present!
The words of rejection that Li Tian wanted to say immediately died in his throat.
This was a clear case of forced buying and selling!
Dare he refuse?
Considering this kid’s methods, Li Tian thought refusing might lead to a bad ending.
"Jiang Shengzi is truly righteous and a model of the new era, we all admire you!"
Li Tian immediately flattered: "This time, Jiang Xiaobai will definitely be captured!"
"That’s more like it."
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and stretched out his hand, giving Li Tian a knowing look.
Reluctantly, Li Tian handed a storage ring to Jiang Xiaobai.
Damn, just met and lost two things already.
If it goes on, he fears even the wealth of the Demon Emperor Palace won’t suffice.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t push further after taking the money, knowing well not to overdo it when extorting.
One must be gradual.
Never mind Li Tian looking all pitiful now, Jiang Xiaobai knew very well these big forces were rich.
"So then, to celebrate our initial success, won’t you treat me to a meal?"
Jiang Xiaobai asked again.
Everyone: ...
What exactly was I expecting?!
