C1552 Hell Visitor(part Ii)
"I believe that Young Sect Master Yu should be clear about who you want us to deal with in hell."
Contrary to Yu Shaoqing's expectations, the black cloaked man didn't act as overbearing as he usually did. Instead, he directly threw out the conditions and asked Yu Shaoqing a question in return. However, upon hearing the black robed man's words, Yu Shaoqing didn't feel relieved at all. On the contrary, his heart was in his throat as he looked at the black robed man with a playful look in his eyes.
He did not believe that these lawless people in the Infernal Realm would treat him warmly just because he was the young master of the Supreme Purity Palace. These madmen had never cared about that sort of thing, nor did they care about the formalities.
In the eyes of these people, everything was just profit! But now, the black cloaked man had suddenly turned around and was not talking to him about benefits. Instead, he was talking to him, so there was only one possibility: This black cloaked man represented the Infernal Realm. The things that he wanted from his hands must have far exceeded the bottom line that he was willing to take, thus he took the 'snag' route of saving the country.
Thus, Yu Shaoqing remained silent with a faint smile on his face as he stared at the man in black. He didn't say a word; he wanted to see what this man in black was planning to do to convince him, and what exactly he was asking for!
Money had always been a good thing since the ancient times. Even for Qi warriors and divine cultivators, they couldn't escape from Nie Tian. A sect, a power, and the preparation of all sorts of buildings required a large amount of money.
Furthermore, as the old saying goes, 'poor man of letters is rich,' regardless of whether it was a man of heaven or a practitioner, one would need to obtain an immense amount of resources to increase their cultivation. Even back then, Lin Bai didn't have to do it all because of his livelihood. He spent some time with Fan Yu to open that Lao Shi Consulting Company, all for the sake of gaining more resources.
If he wanted to cultivate real martial arts, he would have to suffer a lot and endure a lot of hardships. Traveling the world, interviewing all master teachers. When fighting with others, injuries were inevitable. Its physical replenishment, travel expenses, medicine, equipment, and making friends all need money. If you don't have real money, who would care about you?!
Now, Yu Shaoqing had to pay a hundred million gold coins for this. It was already an astronomical figure. But even if it was such an astronomical figure, these people from the Infernal Realm were still unsatisfied. This showed just how big their appetite was!
"What you want us to deal with in hell are not the people we normally deal with, but a colossus that we've never seen before! Not only do they have a powerful family, they also have two Soul Formation experts, and they even have a Yin Form and a fierce ape. Even if we were to face them in hell, if we are not careful, we might be able to destroy them. "
Yu Shaoqing was silent, but the man in black robe did not fall silent, and his words were even smoother, as if he was a merchant who was used to haggling in the market. He then turned to Yu Shaoqing and said, "Although Young Master Yu's one hundred million chips is very tempting, but to face such a monster in hell, one hundred million chips is not enough!"
"To put it bluntly, what exactly do you people from the Infernal Realm want?" Yu Shaoqing gently waved his finger, and a wisp of fiery-red Essence Qi appeared in his meridians, transforming into a small red sword. After circling around his ten fingers, he said lightly.
"Young Sect Master Yu, quick to speak. We didn't misjudge him." The corners of the black-robed man's eyes twitched a few times as he looked at the small fiery red sword that exuded a terrifying heat. Then, he revealed a smile and said: "As long as you're a member of the Wonder Sect, everyone knows that Yu Young Sect Master is only trying to threaten that person to obtain the Hetu Luo Book and the Immortal medicine …"
"Do you people from the Infernal Realm also want these two things?" Before the man in black finished his sentence, Yu Shaoqing brazenly interrupted him. He gently waved his finger, and the small fiery sword's aura suddenly expanded by several times, emitting a scorching heat.
"Our Infernal Realm doesn't have that much of an appetite …" The corners of the black cloaked man's eyes once again grew cold, and he said with a smile: "Our master only wants one of these two things, the one that is insignificant to Young Sect Master Yu."
"Do you want the elixir?" With his cultivation, how could he not see that this person in front of him was definitely a Qi warrior? Not only that, he was at the Mastery of the Sun God, a half-step into the Human Realm Cultivator. He did not understand why this person did not choose the Hetu Luo Book, but chose the Immortal medicine instead.
One had to know that according to the legends, although the effects of the elixir were miraculous, the He Tuoluo book was able to connect the heaven and earth origin energy. With the help of this aura, the purest celestial spiritual energy in the world could be absorbed, and even a Qi warrior's cultivation would increase by leaps and bounds.
"I believe that Young Master Yu knows that we from the Infernal Realm value the interests of both sides the most. If we were to ask for the River Diagram, you would definitely not agree to it, Young Sect Leader Yu. We will weigh the pros and cons and naturally choose the elixir. " The black cloaked person gently smiled. He stared at the small fiery red sword without the slightest fear as he spoke in an indifferent manner.
"Although it's only an elixir, your hellish appetite is not small. Taking a hundred million from me plus the elixir, aren't these chips a bit too heavy?" Hearing this, Yu Shaoqing's eyes turned cold as he lightly waved his hand. The small fiery sword immediately charged towards the ground, and as the two sides clashed, the small fiery sword seemed to enter the ground as if it had entered nothingness, leaving behind a charred scar on the ground. Looking at that mark, Yu Shaoqing menacingly asked, "What if I don't agree to your conditions?"
"If Young Master Yu is unwilling, then we naturally cannot force you. We of Hell have never had the habit of threatening others. It's just that Hell has always been a high bidder. Naturally, we'll find a suitable partner, a partner who can agree to our terms. Now that the chaos has arisen and countless people are ready to move, it should not be difficult to find such an ally. "
The black cloaked man acted as if he had not noticed the small red sword's power, but he remained calm and continued, "But as far as I know, Young Sect Master Yu, you are a smart person. You definitely do not want us to find other allies and fall out with you at the Supreme Purity Palace. Furthermore, what Young Sect Master Yu wants to do, in this entire world, is the only thing that can be done impeccably and flawlessly are we, the people of hell, right? "
When Yu Shaoqing heard this, his expression kept changing, and he kept thinking. As the man in black had said, the only people in this world who could perfectly carry out his plan were those proud men in hell.
The most important thing was that the situation had gradually turned into a mess. Yu Shaoqing knew that those who wanted to make a move, such as Cloud Sky Sect, Mountain Mist Sect and some other influential families that controlled huge amounts of resources, were all gathered in Yan Jing. There was no problem at all for the people in the Infernal Realm to find suitable allies from these people.
Furthermore, among those sects and aristocratic families, none of them were easy to deal with. If they teamed up with Hell, they might even secretly move their hands and form an alliance with the Qing Palace. Although he wasn't afraid, once he was dragged into the quagmire, all his previous plans would be in vain.
"I can agree to your conditions. I can pay a hundred million right now, but the elixir will have to be obtained by your own means. We only want the Hutuluo Book." After a moment of silence, Yu Shaoqing finally agreed to the man in black's conditions. A glint of light flashed across his eyes as he said, "But I have three questions to ask you!"
"Young Sect Master Yu sure is fast talking." The man in black cupped his hands towards Yu Shaoqing, as if he had expected this question from Yu Shaoqing. He smiled and said, "If you have any questions, just ask. As long as I know, I will answer them all."
"Why do you people of the Infernal Realm only want the elixir?" With regards to the man in black robes agreeing to his conditions so quickly, Yu Shaoqing was also a little surprised. However, he quickly recovered and asked indifferently.
"Because we know that you, Young Sect Master Yu, will not agree to give us the He Tu Luo book after the matter is concluded. Therefore, we can only take a step back." The black cloaked man laughed heartily as he continued, "Furthermore, this matter was handled by Master. I don't know the exact details either."
"Why does your master want the deathly medicine?" Hearing this, Yu Shaoqing's eyes lit up, staring at the man in black and speaking in a deep voice.
There were countless legends about the master of hell in the world, and in these legends, there was not a single one that didn't say that the master of hell was ruthless and meticulous. Furthermore, this man could topple the entire hell in one night. He would never do something so ridiculous. He must have his reasons for the elixir!
However, Yu Shaoqing couldn't understand why this master of hell would do such a thing. One must know that although the Immortal Medicine has a unique effect, it is said to be able to raise one's cultivation. However, that was just a legend. According to Yu Shaoqing's conjecture, the elixir probably only had some special healing effect. Could it be that the owner of hell had an illness, or one of his people had an incurable disease?
"Is this the second question?" After hearing that, the black cloaked man went silent, staring at Yu Shaoqing as he spoke.
"Of course not." When Yu Shaoqing heard this, he was slightly taken aback. He thought for a moment and then said lightly: "What? You're not willing to say?"
"If it's not the second question, I naturally won't say it. However, since Young Sect Master Yu is curious, there's no harm in me telling you. The reason is very simple. Master is very meticulous and does whatever she wants. Other than the master himself, no one else would know the reason behind it. " The black robed man chuckled, continuing slowly: "Young Sect Master Yu, please ask the second question."
"Your master is quite interesting. If there is a chance in the future, you must definitely meet him." When Yu Shaoqing heard this, he looked at the man in black playfully. However, he was secretly surprised. Only at this moment did he truly understand the terror of hell, because these people of hell only had the word 'master' in their hearts. They would not ask more than they should.
Such strict discipline was something that not even the Supreme Purity Palace would be able to accomplish. To be able to do this, one could imagine how terrifying the masters of the Infernal Realm were.
"There will definitely be an opportunity. I believe that Master is also very interested in Young Sect Master Yu." The black cloaked man chuckled, then looked towards Yu Shaoqing and said faintly, "Young Sect Master Yu, what's your second question?"
