Chapter 765: Never Compromise Until Despair
Xiao Jinsan's expression grew increasingly ferocious.
"Xiao Yue, I must say, you've disguised yourself very well." Xiao Jinsan inhaled deeply, "I didn't have the slightest suspicion towards you. Had you not lifted your veil today, I wouldn't have known you were still alive. But what's the meaning of exposing yourself today? Are you tired of living? Or can you no longer bear the commands of a sworn enemy like me? It's a pity, though. Perhaps you might have succeeded if you had continued to hide."
Indeed, Xiao Jinsan had never doubted Hei Luo's identity over the years.
Who would have thought, Hei Luo was actually Xiao Yue, the woman who was supposed to have died many years ago.
Xiao Yue also felt helpless in her heart, thinking: Do you think I want this? I know I've hidden myself well, I know I had a chance to kill you...
But the world is always like this: unpredictable and ever-changing. How could I have known I would encounter Tang Rao, or meet a monster like Xiao Yun?
However, Tang Rao should deal with Xiao Jinsan, perhaps, Tang Rao will kill Xiao Jinsan. Although she can't take action herself, it's better than letting this man continue to live.
"Now that you've revealed yourself, I'm sorry to say, but I have to send you to your death," said Xiao Jinsan with a shrug. Of course, he would not allow Xiao Yue to continue to live – a woman capable of such endurance and possessing such shocking talent. Five years ago, when he killed her entire family, she was merely a Heavenly Immortal of the Ninth Level. Within five years, she had actually advanced directly to the Eighth Level of the Luo Xian Realm.
If she were given another year or two, heaven knows how much further she might grow.
"Hold on, hold on," Tang Rao immediately shouted.
Xiao Jinsan turned to Tang Rao, his face a picture of puzzlement.
You boy, what are you talking about at this time? A mere ant wanting to join the fight among lions?
"Shut your mouth, or I'll kill you first!" Xiao Jinsan glared at Tang Rao.
Tang Rao frowned; Xiao Jinsan really had no manners and was incredibly arrogant.
Of course, apart from being arrogant and rude, Xiao Jinsan had another notable trait: stupidity.
You don't even bother to investigate who I, Tang Rao, am, where I come from, where I'm heading, what I'm doing here, and whether I have any powerful masters by my side. You just want to confront me and kill me—aren't you a fool?
That you've lived to this age is also unbelievable.
"Golden Master, I am Tang Rao, I came here to discuss business with you, why would you want to kill me? I don't understand this at all," Tang Rao quickly said with a smile.
"Discuss business? With you?" Xiao Jinsan wore a look of disdain. I'm not trying to look down upon you, but I really don't believe I have any business to talk about with trash like you.
"Yeah, discuss business. Why don't we talk about it first? After all, you can kill Xiao Yue anytime, and I can't escape. Maybe you should listen; what if you're interested?" Tang Rao said seriously.
Xiao Jinsan was somewhat surprised by Tang Rao's composure. At a time like this, this kid was still calm.
Could it be that he really has a big deal on his hands?
"Fine, then I'll listen," Xiao Jinsan said, "If it's quite profitable, I might consider sparing your life. But if it's useless, I'm sorry, but I'll make sure your death is brilliant."
"You'll definitely be interested," Tang Rao said with a smile, "Here's the deal: you, Golden Master, transfer the ownership of the Bounty Hall to me, and I'll give you ten Immortal Stones. Actually, I was only planning to give nine, but I'm a rather generous person, so I'm giving you one extra."
Tang Rao grinned, wearing a smile on his face.
Why would I even talk about cooperation with you? When I, Tang Rao, look for partners, they at least have to be of good character and high intelligence. Someone like you, I don't even want to deal with.
Hearing Tang Rao's words, Xiao Jinsan's face completely darkened, it was clear that Tang Rao was mocking him.
Ten Immortal Stones for the Bounty Hall, do you think I, Xiao Jinsan, am a fool?
"Go to hell, all of you!" In the next moment, Xiao Jinsan stepped forward and struck out with both fists, directly aiming at Tang Rao and Xiao Yue.
Both Tang Rao and Xiao Yue maintained calm expressions, with Xiao Yun standing beside them.
"Boom!" Just as Xiao Jinsan's fist was about to land on Tang Rao and Xiao Yue, Xiao Yun took a sidestep, and both of her small fists charged out with force.
Bang!
A muffled explosion resounded, and Xiao Jinsan staggered back five or six steps, which caught Tang Rao by surprise as even Xiao Yun took two steps back.
"This is getting a bit tricky," Xiao Yun muttered, "Tang Rao, he's also a Half-step Immortal Monarch."
Xiao Jinsan shook his hands, his eyes filled with shock.
He hadn't expected that this fourteen- or fifteen-year-old girl would be the strongest; being so young and already a Half-step Immortal Monarch, it was terrifying.
No wonder Tang Rao was so bold.
Wait a minute, why would Tang Rao have such a ferocious talent by his side? A teenager being a Half-step Immortal Monarch is terrifyingly gifted, such talent can only be found within the real top powers, the truly favored by the heavens.
Could it be that Tang Rao comes from a top power?
Thinking this, Xiao Jinsan's head began to ache.
Clearly, he had thoroughly offended Tang Rao, and if Tang Rao left today, he would surely seek revenge in the future. The only way out was to kill him, to ensure that all three of them here died without witness!
Xiao Yue also looked rather unpleasant; she had always thought that Xiao Jinsan was at the Eighth Level of Luo Xian Realm, but to her surprise, he had actually reached the Half-step Immortal Monarch.
She had been planning to take action soon since it wouldn't be long before she could break into the Luo Xian Realm.
Now it seemed that she owed Tang Rao, for if she had made a move after reaching the Eighth Level of Luo Xian without Tang Rao intervening, she'd most likely be slain on spot by Xiao Jinsan.
"Today, none of you will leave here alive!" Xiao Jinsan roared, swinging out an extremely dazzling broadsword, causing a tempest and shockwaves.
Xiao Yun had no weapons in hand and could only use the power of the Immortal Power to form a defense, which seemed to be at a disadvantage.
"Tang Rao, help me break this restraint!" Xiao Yue called out to Tang Rao.
"I won't."
"Don't worry, my target is Xiao Jinsan. If this continues and Xiao Yun can't hold on, we're all going to die," Xiao Yue shouted.
"I don't know whether Xiao Yun can hold on or not, but if you go up there, you'll be split in two by Xiao Jinsan with a single blow; there's no damn use to it," Tang Rao said casually.
Xiao Yue was silent, and what Tang Rao said was... not wrong.
"Xiao Yun, can you handle it?" Tang Rao, who had somehow procured a small stool to sit on, asked nonchalantly, looking utterly unworried.
Xiao Yun: "..."
"Tang Rao, I'm telling you, I want ten lollipops this time," Xiao Yun shouted. Xiao Jinsan was not weak; of course, what troubled her the most was the broadsword in Xiao Jinsan's hand—it was definitely no simple weapon, a high-grade Immortal Treasure.
Fighting unarmed, so difficult.
"How about I help you out!" Tang Rao continued to shout.
Xiao Yun rolled her eyes; what could you, a foolish Earth Immortal, help me with?
Hand over a free kill?
"If you need help, just give me a shout," Tang Rao said with a smile.
Xiao Yun clenched her teeth; Tang Rao was trash, he must have some way, but it was definitely going to cost her lollipops or chocolates.
She would not compromise until absolutely desperate!
