Because of the matters in Starshine City, he advised staying low profile recently to avoid getting involved.
Although the Assassin’s League doesn’t have fixed assets, they don’t want to be targeted for no reason either.
And obviously, this ’Xuan Gui’ is on the side of Arctic State.
But thinking about it makes sense; at such times, the traitors inside Extreme Ice City hiring the Assassin’s League, which specializes in dirty work, seems to be the most cost-effective option.
"Your Excellency..., are you from Earth Dragon City?"
Upon hearing Tao Yu’s words, Xuan Gui immediately deduced the ’truth’, and a moment of realization appeared in his heart.
No wonder, so that’s how they circumvented.
If they bordered Earth Dragon City, and then the powerhouses from there encountered it, it seems very possible.
It can’t even be ruled out that these two guys’ mission is actually secretly colluding with Earth Dragon City!
This counts as a piece of important intelligence!
Xuan Gui himself is just someone who takes on tasks; he won’t proactively do anything for the employer.
But bringing back such intelligence is enough for the employer to pay extra, which brought a slight smile to his face.
"Since you are not from Extreme Ice City, why get involved in this mess? I apologize for my previous recklessness, but these two are my targets."
Xuan Gui floated in the air, pointing at Vincent and Newt, who were filled with despair.
Even if they are considerable World Breakers, facing a Catastrophe Level is a complete dimensional reduction strike.
What merit do we have to warrant such an existence’s pursuit?
But it can also be seen from this point that the rebellious forces are likely preparing to make big moves in the New Development Zone.
They also didn’t hope that the previous money would be enough to buy their lives.
"Oh, coming out to attack me inexplicably, lose the fight, and then say it’s a misunderstanding? Since when is there such a good deal in the world?"
Tao Yu did not immediately take down Xuan Gui but spoke righteously with a touch of sarcasm.
"Then how does Your Excellency wish to handle this?"
Xuan Gui frowned slightly, unsure of the extent to which Tao Yu intended to be involved. Did he really bring reinforcements from Earth Dragon City?
Earth Dragon City intends to deeply involve itself?
"Pay up, one million Yuan Force as a token. You’re not going to refuse, are you? It’s a bargain."
Tao Yu opened his mouth and started asking for money.
However, upon hearing Tao Yu’s words and the price quoted, Xuan Gui was slightly relieved.
The other party didn’t demand unreasonably high prices, just asked for a relatively sincere amount.
One million, not too much, not too little, as compensation for face under the current situation, is also considered normal.
After just a moment’s hesitation, Xuan Gui agreed readily,
"Fine, indeed I was the one who offended first."
Saying this, he also began to draw out a Magnetic Card, injecting Yuan Force into it.
After all, he’s a Catastrophe Level; though not very wealthy, nor the chief steward holding construction funds, he could still come up with a million in cash.
Avoiding a confrontation with a Catastrophe Level, the money was worth it.
Moreover, he recorded the scene as evidence, which could be reimbursed, as it wasn’t his money, and he could sell the intelligence to earn a little extra.
After injecting the Yuan Force, he flicked his finger, and the Magnetic Card spun rapidly, breaking through space and landing in front of Tao Yu, who grabbed it and checked it.
"Very well, this matter is settled, you may leave."
Watching Tao Yu take the Magnetic Card, Vincent and Newt felt the sky had fallen.
They also hadn’t considered the issue of the protection fee they had paid before, just waiting for themselves to be handed over.
"Might as well give up."
"Who knows if he definitely wants to kill us."
The two exchanged a glance.
But they soon heard Tao Yu’s words, ’you may leave,’ which made them pause briefly.
Even Xuan Gui paused, then smiled and said,
"Then please hand them over to me, and if you have any precautions, just throw them into the sea, and I’ll retrieve them myself."
"Hmm? When did I say I would hand them over to you?"
Tao Yu asked in bewilderment, directly leaving Xuan Gui dumbfounded.
No way, man, you just took the money!
"They also paid a protection fee, and I agreed to protect them this time. The money you gave is just my life-saving money for offending me. You don’t think you’re not worth that price, do you? It’s very cheap."
Tao Yu’s indifferent attitude immediately turned Xuan Gui’s face red, and he said angrily,
"When did I say that giving money also meant giving people to you?"
Tao Yu’s light response made Vincent and Newt feel like they were dreaming.
Is there actually a big shot willing to oppose a Catastrophe Level for us?
Might as well marry...
Even though Vincent thought it might be Earth Dragon City’s attempt to intervene in Extreme Ice City’s affairs, at times , a lifesaver is like a godfather! Like a re-birth parent!
"What life-saving money can they give you?"
Xuan Gui erupted in anger.
"About twenty thousand together, do you want to give me that?"
"Do you really think I’ll believe your nonsense?!"
Xuan Gui laughed in extreme anger, and with his rage, powerful air currents erupted around him, and a spiral began to form in the seawater below, viewing akin to a dragon sucking water, as water strings spiraled towards the floating Xuan Gui in the sky.
"For twenty thousand, you’re willing to become my enemy?!
"You might as well directly say that Earth Dragon City wants to intervene, and it would look better for everyone! Besides, I’m not even from Extreme Ice City!"
Thunderbolts accompanied Xuan Gui’s fury, appearing on the waterspout below his feet.
