72 Laojianghu
Zhou Suren, who entered Zuixian Tower, quickly reached the top floor.
Master Peng turned his back to Zhou Suren and looked at the scenery outside the window without saying a word, feeling full of oppression.
"I came alone as promised. May I ask your surname?" The other party is higher in cultivation than me and comes from a demon family. Zhou Suren cannot pretend to be an emperor in front of him, but he will not appear humble, because this is his territory. And it is the other party who causes trouble first.
"You are not qualified to know my name." Master Peng turned around and sat on the chair.
Zhou Suren also sat opposite him. Both sides had strong auras, but Master Peng was more powerful. He raised his eyebrows and said with displeasure in his words: "Who allowed you to sit down?"
"This is my imperial city. As long as I want, every inch of land can be used by me." Zhou Suren did not show weakness: "You just come to my place to cause trouble without saying hello. Do you really think I dare not capture you? "
"Feel free to try."
The atmosphere was tense, as if a war was about to break out.
"Why did you want to kill that demon cultivator?" The two sides looked at each other for a while, then Zhou Suren changed the subject.
"I have a personal grudge against him." Young Master Peng did not dare to make the matter bigger. The reason why he was so fierce was because he wanted to test whether Zhou Suren was a weak human being. If Zhou Suren had shown timidity just now, he would not be able to stand or sit down. , then he can defeat Zhou Suren and gain the absolute upper hand in negotiations. Now it seems that humans who can become emperors are not so easily fooled.
"Have a personal vendetta? You can drive a magic weapon at the level of Dongxu. Your cultivation level has reached at least the tenth level of the Demon King. That demon cultivator is only at the third level of the Transformation God. If you have a personal vendetta, you don't report it early. But on the first day he was caught in the Dynasty Just send your men to carry out assassinations..."
"Are you going to ask about my personal affairs?"
"I'm not interested." Zhou Suren sneered: "But you sent your men to break into the secret prison and killed the serious criminals, which made me and the dynasty lose face in front of the world, and caused the imperial city to panic. Shouldn't this account be due? calcalute it?"
Master Peng sneered: "Tell me, how many spiritual stones you want, I can afford them."
Spiritual energy is the purest form of energy, and it can be converted into demonic energy after being absorbed by demons. Therefore, it is not surprising that even demons own spiritual stone mines and use spiritual stones as trading currency.
"How much can you give?" Zhou Suren threw the question back to Master Peng.
Negotiation requires the use of speaking skills. Zhou Suren was born in the imperial court, so his speaking skills are naturally better than those of young masters from the demon family.
No, the question was thrown back, and Master Peng fell into thinking. He couldn't give too little, otherwise he would lose face, and it was impossible to give too much. He didn't want to give more resources to the human race for free.
"A demon cultivator on the third level of the God Transformation, how much is your reward? I'll pay double, as if I bought his life." In the end, Master Peng gave an answer that he thought was appropriate without losing his prestige. .
Zhou Suren smiled softly and had already guessed that Master Peng would say this. Since you can't do anything to him, then give him a blow. Of course, I won't knock too much. The main thing is to resolve the matter peacefully on the premise of teaching the other party a lesson.
"The reward for a demon cultivator on the third level of God Transformation in my court is eight hundred high-grade spiritual stones."
In fact, the real bounty is five hundred high-grade spiritual stones. Even so, this is not a small amount. Most mid-level sects may not be able to collect that much together. Of course, the beings with the highest cultivation level among ordinary middle-level sects are only those in the late Nascent Soul stage. The reward of five hundred high-grade spiritual stones in the early stage of divine transformation was even higher than the market price given by the Great Zhou Dynasty.
If an ordinary villain heard such a high price, he would have shouted something like, "Don't open your mouth like a lion", but Master Peng is a monster. He can't say such out-of-character words, and he doesn't want to be looked down upon by the humans.
Eight hundred high-grade spiritual stones is doubled to 1,600, which is quite painful for him. He only has about a thousand high-grade spiritual stones at most. However, if the spiritual stones are not enough, he can use spiritual plants to offset them. Overall Come to think of it, Master Peng can afford it.
"Hmph, sixteen hundred high-grade spiritual stones can buy the life of a dog that can transform into a god. You humans are really worthless." Master Peng stiffened his mouth and said, "It's just that I can't bring that many spiritual stones when I go out. First of all, I’ll give you one thousand, and use spiritual plants to make up the rest.”
"Your Excellency is a cheerful person. In this case, the price of the spiritual plant does not need to be calculated so carefully. It can probably be around one thousand sixty."
Master Peng snorted coldly and was unwilling to say anything more. He opened the storage bag and poured a thousand high-grade spiritual stones on the ground. Then he opened the storage ring and selected the spiritual stones that were not of good quality but of reasonable value. The plants were also thrown to the ground.
Zhou Suren just watched and kept smiling.
The dynasty has ten thousand years of wealth, but it has been accumulated by generations of ancestors for many years. If Zhou Suren wanted to use a large amount of wealth, he had to consult Mr. Gui for his opinion. To put it bluntly, he is not short of money, but it is difficult for him to personally come up with so many spiritual stones.
In the same way, Master Peng comes from a demon clan family and has a good background, but the family's property has nothing to do with him. What he is taking out now are all his savings.
Having a high level of cultivation does not mean that Master Peng can beat Zhou Suren in every aspect. Zhou Suren can definitely be called a veteran in terms of conversational skills and psychological speculation.
"Let's do some inventory so that we don't say we are short of money later." Master Peng kept a straight face the whole time.
"No need, I trust you, Your Excellency." Zhou Suren opened the storage bag and waved his hand, and all the spiritual stones and spiritual plants flew into it.
This is the world of cultivating immortals. Even if money is dropped on the ground, there is no need to bend down and pick it up undignified. At most, it can only be given to Qian Fang to vent his dissatisfaction.
The negotiation came to an end. Zhou Suren stood up and said, "I will announce to the outside world that the monsters that sneaked into the city have been taken down. Your men will let them back later, but please restrain them. If they hurt me, The people, I will definitely take their lives, and then the spirit stone will not be able to solve it."
"I will take care of my young master's dog. You don't need to say anything." Master Peng was extremely unhappy and depressed. He stopped Zhou Suren who was about to leave: "There are two things that I don't understand. Liu Xu's With such a strong concealment ability, how did you track and accurately find his hiding place? Moreover, this young master clearly carries treasures that can be hidden from the later stages of Dongxu. How did you discover it? "
If everything goes as Master Peng predicted, the human race should be looking for clues like headless flies now, and he doesn't need to give away so many spiritual stones for nothing. What went wrong?
"Your Excellency, you have underestimated our great Zhou Dynasty. After thousands of years of accumulation, how difficult is it to find a few magic weapons to detect demonic energy?" In fact, there is really no way to find it, because the demon clan and the human clan have not happened in the past ten thousand years. What kind of conflict is it? The development process of the dynasty was in competition with other human kingdoms, so most of the magic weapons in the treasure house were used for killing and self-protection. There are magic weapons against demons, but they are all relatively low-level.
The situation could be turned back to the favor of the human race, all thanks to the help of Ye Yong's "luck". It was impossible for Zhou Suren to say that, after all, that would not build up Ye Yong's reputation, but would simply cause him to be targeted by the monster race.
Ignoring Master Peng, Zhou Suren walked directly out of the balcony, jumped down, and landed firmly on the ground.
When the ministers and soldiers outside saw that His Majesty had come out safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
