Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Because of Chu Yunfan, many experts and forces from various alliances and forces appeared. For a moment, a huge net enveloped Chu Yunfan, and as time pa.s.sed, it became tighter and tighter. There were even a few times when it almost collided with Chu Yunfan.
Although Chu Yunfan had deliberately let them discover him, it meant that this big net was getting tighter and tighter. More and more people joined the hunt for Chu Yunfan under the temptation of five million high-grade spirit stones.
One day, a young man wearing Confucian-style robes with a devilish smile on his face strode into the Destiny Alliance base.
“Halt!
A loud shout rang out, and divine will swept over the young man in the Confucian robe.
After being robbed by Chu Yunfan, the Destiny Alliance had to be much more careful. There were crazy people in the world who didn’t put their Destiny Sect in their eyes. Chu Yunfan had even slaughtered the experts of their Destiny Sect as if they were ants. Moreover, this madman had not been caught yet.
Before that, everyone in the Destiny Alliance was extremely nervous. No one knew when Jian Wuchen would reappear and rob the Destiny Alliance again. With that guys arrogance, it was not impossible. It could even be said that it was very possible. Therefore, as long as any suspicious person came to visit, they would be paid attention to. Once something went wrong, they would immediately take action.
“l am Scholar Serene. I’ve come to inform you of Jian Wuchen’s whereabouts!”
This young scholar’s words caused a commotion in the Destiny Alliance. The major forces had joined forces to offer a bounty of five million high-grade spirit stones for Jian Wuchen’s capture. However, there was no news about Chu Yunfan. Although there was news of Chu Yunfan from time to time, they had never met him. They had brushed past him several times. Therefore, when the young scholar said that he knew where Jian Wuchen was, the entire Destiny Alliance was in an uproar.
“Is that true?” Suddenly, a loud roar came from within. Immediately after, a figure flashed across the sky and arrived before the young scholar.
Scholar Serene focused his gaze and saw that it was a young man who seemed to be in his thirties. This young man was burly and wore armor. He carried a somewhat conquering aura. One look and it was obvious that he was a decisive person who had walked down from the battlefield.
“Are you Marquis Tianma?” A devilish smile appeared on Scholar Serene’s face.
“That’s right, I am Marquis Tianma!” The young man’s expression was cold. He stared at the young man in the Confucian before him. However, the corners of his mouth revealed a cold smile as he said, “Your name is Scholar Serene? Why haven’t I heard of you before?”
“t.i.tles are just a t.i.tle. There are countless prodigies on the battlefield, from ancient times to the present era. There are countless prodigies. It’s normal for you to not know about one or two of them!” Scholar Serene looked at Marquis Tianma before him. Under Marquis Tianma’s intense gaze, he was calm and did not panic.
“What a sharp tongue. You really are a Confucian!” Marquis Tianma sneered as if he didn’t have high hopes for Scholar Serene. “However, I only want to know about Jian Wuchen. I’m not interested in your background!”
Marquis Tianma didn’t like Confucian scholars, especially when they were from the Virtuous Academy. The Destiny Sect was the number one sect in the world while the Virtuous Academy was the number two. Naturally, there was compet.i.tion from all sides.
In that era, he had directly suppressed his peers in the Virtuous Academy.
Even after so many years, his peers had died of old age, but he was still young. However, he didn’t care if Scholar Serene came from the Virtuous Academy or if he had some other connections. He only cared about Jian Wuchen’s whereabouts.
Jian Wuchen’s existence was a bone to the Destiny Alliance and even the Destiny Sect. This was a huge insult to the Destiny Sect, and it was also a huge humiliation to him. He would feel ashamed if he didn’t catch Jian Wuchen.
“If you want to know about Jian Wuchen, give me 5 million high-grade spirit stones!” Scholar Serene’s eyes glimmered as he stared at Marquis Tianma.
“5 million high-grade spirit stones isn’t a problem.” Marquis Tianma frowned.
“But I’ll only give it to you when I see Jian Wuchen!”
“No, you have to give me 5 million high-grade spirit stones before I tell you the location!” Scholar Serene shook his head. “I’ll only feel at ease when I get my reward! ”
“Are you threatening me?” Marquis Tianma’s expression became even colder. No one had ever dared to threaten him before. “ lf I capture you instead, I can use the Soul Search Technique to find Jian Wuchen’s whereabouts!”
“But if that’s the case, who would dare to provide information to the Destiny
Alliance and Destiny Sect in the future? Everyone will know that the Destiny
Alliance will do anything to achieve their goals!” The corners of Scholar Serene’s mouth curled up into a smile, carrying a hint of evil charm. It was as if he was certain that Marquis Tianma would not turn hostile.
Marquis Tianma’s face was filled with uncertainty. The words of Scholar
Serene had indeed caught his sore spot. Although he could capture Scholar Serene now and use the Soul Search Technique to find what he wanted, their Destiny Alliance would never be able to offer any rewards in the future. Who would dare to provide information to such a treacherous force?
Everyone would be afraid of getting captured and having the Soul Search Technique used on them. The impact and consequences were far more severe than the value of a mere five million yuan.
No matter how angry he was, Marquis Tianam wouldn’t say such a thing so easily. He was only one of the big shots in the Destiny Alliance and wasn’t the true alliance chief. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so conflicted.
“How do I know if the information you provide is correct?” Marquis Tianma said coldly. At this moment, killing intent surged in his heart. No one had ever been able to easily retreat after threatening him. He had already made up his mind. Once this matter was over, he would kill this arrogant scholar. Regardless of whether he was from the Virtuous Academy or not, he must not be allowed to live.
“Simple. 1 can go with you. If something goes wrong, you can just attack me. Isn’t that fine? But I need those spirit stones first. Otherwise, if you don’t keep your word, I won’t be able to get them.” Scholar Serene insisted on getting the spirit stones first.
Marquis Tianma thought for a moment and agreed that this was a good idea. If he didn’t see Jian Wuchen, he would just kill Scholar Serene. The latter wouldn’t dare to pull any tricks..
