"Why did you come here without a friend? This King doesn't seem to have invited you!"

It was because of his words that he had attracted the attention of 100,000 cultivators. How could Chi Dan not know the reason for their unhappiness? He knew the answer, but he didn't welcome unhappiness.

"Fellow Daoist, you seem to have forgotten that none of the people here were invited by you."

The whole city's over a hundred thousand cultivators, Chi Dan did not invite anyone. Everyone came uninvited for the sake of Shentu Shun's whereabouts.

"Is it unlucky that Fellow Daoist also came for Shentu Shentu?"

With the same goal in mind, he thought that snakes were meaningless, so he might as well open his mouth to speak frankly.

"He's old and useless. He's afraid of death!" Rumors had it that those who were able to obtain the path of slaughter could live on for a long time without being happy, but their goal was very clear.

"How many spirit stones did you take out?"

Since they were both from Shentu, there were definitely many good things for a cultivator in the tribulation stage. How could the Scarlet Core miss out on the opportunity to extort a cultivator in the tribulation stage? Even if the extortion did not succeed, it would be enough for him to be proud of himself.

"Tell me where Shentu Shun is, a hundred top quality spirit stones are yours."

Knowing that Chi Dan was trying to blackmail him, how could he possibly compromise? He waved the high-grade storage necklace in his hand, obviously intending to trade with it.

"Dammit, that was my Spirit Stone after all!"

A hundred top grade spirit stones, the Scarlet Core was already in his possession. If there was no happiness, he would have already obtained the spirit stones.

Not only did he steal his spirit stones, he even took out his spirit stones to buy the information on him.

"Speak of Shentu Shun's whereabouts and it will be yours!"

A hundred top grade spirit stones were used to exchange for Shentu Shun's location. The transaction had not been completed yet, and only Chi Dan thought that the spirit stones were his. No one else thought so.

Now that the Spirit Stone had fallen into his hands, he wouldn't care who had it. Before he obtained Shentu Shun's location, he would never say that the Spirit Stone was a Scarlet Core.

"I've decided to raise the price, a hundred top quality spirit stones is not enough!"

The low level cultivators had given up all their savings, and the high level cultivators had also given up some of their savings. There was no reason for them to not pay the price for Shentu Shun's whereabouts.

There were many good things on a cultivator in the tribulation stage. Thus, the Scarlet Core would definitely extort some good items out of thin air. Since there was no happiness and no sense of humor, it would not be polite.

"It's fine. Just treat it as you've passed through the old road. You got lucky and picked up a hundred top quality spirit stones."

Even if you wanted to extort and blackmail me, I would not hand it over. Worse comes to worse, I won't be able to obtain Shentu Shun's location, and you can't even think of obtaining a hundred top grade spirit stones.

"Damned old man, consider me ruthless. Hand over the spirit stones, and I'll tell you!"

As the saying goes, a hooligan still needs a hooligan's rule. Evil people still need evil people to grind them down. If Chi Dan is an evil person, then no happiness is a hooligan.

The older the wiser, Chi Dan finally met his match this time.

If the immortal master wasn't here, a hundred top quality spirit stones could shorten the time spent on cultivation. If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Ever since it was born, it had never compromised in the face of anything. Even when there was an unresolvable problem, it had had its immortal master take care of it. Now that it had to face things alone, its companions couldn't help but compromise for the first time in its life.

It couldn't miss out on a hundred top grade spirit stones. It had compromised.

If he were to compromise, would he be able to obtain spirit stones immediately?

Things will not be so simple...

If there was no such thing as happiness, things would be very simple. But since he appeared, how could things be simple!

Others might not dare to do some things, but he did because he was a cultivator in the tribulation stage. At the very least, on the surface, his status was on par with a Scarlet Core.

"Make an oath!"

A vow was an oath made by Chi Dan. Hundreds of high-level cultivators had thought about it, but no one dared to speak of it. No happiness could ever be mentioned. Not only did they dare to speak of it, they really did.

"Wha-what oath?"

As the king of demons of his generation, his dignity was not to be violated lightly. Who dared to make him swear? Initially, he thought that no one would dare to make him swear, which was why the Crimson Dan was acting so brazenly.

Not only did he appear unlucky, he even snatched away his spirit stones and forced himself to swear an oath.

This was intolerable! Everything was for the sake of obtaining spirit stones. Chi Dan was truly thick-skinned enough to tolerate this.

Swearing, cultivators were most afraid of swearing. Once it was fulfilled, the consequences would be unimaginable. The demon beast was the same, it was not stupid, how could it so easily swear an oath.

"I can't possibly spend a hundred top grade spirit stones to buy a piece of fake news, right?"

Regardless of whether the Scarlet Core was a Demon King or not, if it had the ability to gather 100,000 cultivators and have hundreds of high-level cultivators obediently hand over their spirit stones, it would definitely not be a fool.

If he wasn't stupid, how could he not know how to swear? Unless he played the fool, played the fool, had no happiness, and was not naive, how could he deceive him?

"Spirit stones aren't yours either!"

Seeing that there was a slight chance, Chi Dan did not hesitate to change the topic. He knew clearly that it had purposely changed the topic and did not care about happiness. It seemed that he was very willing to bullshit with it.

"I picked it up!"

He would never forget how he had obtained a hundred top quality spirit stones. He had never picked them up without a sense of happiness.

However, the spirit stones were already in the hands of Wu Huan, so no one dared to refute him if he insisted that they were the ones who picked them up.

Chi Dan was using the name of the Demon King, and he was not afraid of power.

It wasn't because it didn't dare, it was because of it. In the end, it was the one who benefited from it. Fighting against injustice would only let it pass by the spirit stone.

It could not tolerate the hearts of the people, and it could not tolerate the loss of a hundred top grade spirit stones.

"You!"

It was unknown when it had begun, but the initiative of Chi Dan had quietly slanted to the side. However, it was certain that the slant came after the appearance of no happiness.

Without the initiative, Chi Dan had always been led by the nose. He did not like this feeling and had even become mad several times.

He really wanted to vent his anger.

For the past five years, regardless of what happened between Tian Ci and Little Dan, the one who was injured was always him. Today, he finally saw Little Dan going crazy from anger, so he felt some sympathy for him.

Still, he was happy to see someone who could suppress Little Dan when he wasn't in danger or hurt.

This was not the first time that Little Dan had caused trouble without her senior brother. Someone could suppress it, making it understand that there was always someone stronger. It also made it realize that other than its senior brother, there was someone else who could cure it.

He really hoped that Little Dan would know how to restrain himself and avoid causing trouble for him after this lesson.

In order to find her brother, she had to travel with the Little Demon King. With her ability to cause trouble, Huo Luan believed that the journey wouldn't go smoothly. She had the same idea as the heavens and hoped that someone could teach the Little Demon King a lesson.

The two times they had met, Lu Ding had always been scolded by Chi Dan. He had always felt displeased in his heart, and now that he saw it being humiliated, he felt extremely happy in his heart.

Gathering funds to pay for Scarlet Pill's greed caused the pauper to hate it. Seeing him go crazy from anger, the pacifier almost clapped his hands to cheer for him.

No matter how happy they felt, no one dared to show it because they knew that Chi Dan needed to vent his anger.

Anyone who didn't open their eyes would be in trouble now. With a tribulation stage cultivator around, it wouldn't need to make a move, but it could not avoid a wave of insults.

For a hundred top grade spirit stones, the Scarlet Core would not give up. No happiness could force it to go crazy, and that was because greed was its greatest weakness.

As long as the spirit stones remained in his hands, he was confident that Chi Dan would not vent his anger on him.

Before Chi Dan obtained a spirit stone, he would endure as much as he could. After obtaining a spirit stone, Tian Ci had already guessed what would happen.

"I have a lot of time, enough for you to change the subject. How about, I swear it! "

How much time, just talk.

Chi Dan knew that the news of Shentu Shun's whereabouts had already spread, so at this moment, it was likely that everyone knew about him.

Possessing the advantage of geography, if one was not happy, they would be able to arrive in time. The other cultivators of the same cultivation level must definitely be on their way, and there might already be people on their way here.

Besides, this was a trading city of the Hollow Jade Sect, and they were at the foot of the mountain. Fellow Daoists of the same cultivation level must have come to this place, and for some reason, they did not show themselves.

Once cultivators of the same cultivation level arrived, there would definitely be people who would want Shentu Shun's location, snatching away the spirit stones to continue trading with the scarlet dans, or even the red dans themselves.

After exposing Chi Dan's little scheme, he also suggested that it continue to swear. It was just trying to get the location of Shentu Shun as soon as possible, so that it would not run amok.

If not for the fact that Chi Dan cared too much about the hundred top grade spirit stones, he would have been able to think of all these.

"F * ck, I just made a vow. I swear, I know where Shentu Shun is."

"Alright, hurry up and give this king the spirit stones!"

Now that his little trick had been exposed, Chi Dan knew that he could no longer evade. If he continued to evade, it would arouse suspicion as to the authenticity of Shentu Shun's whereabouts.

A hundred top grade spirit stones for a fake news, no happiness, no stupidity, the transaction would definitely be cancelled.

If the transaction was cancelled, the matter of obtaining the spirit stones would be settled. If he were to anger a hundred thousand poverty-stricken people, the consequences would be hard to predict.

As a last resort, it stretched out its right hand, aiming the palm of its right hand at Unhappiness and made a vow.

The most laughable, most crafty, and most ineffective thing in the world was the oath Chi Dan swore upon hearing it. The hundred thousand cultivators in the city laughed at it in contempt, and some even admired its shamelessness.

The gazes of ridicule, contempt, and admiration were filled with shame. He raised his head and looked towards the sky as if to say, Not familiar with it.

As they entered the city together, they even saw off the Little Demon King. When Huo Luan and the others knew that they were his companions, they couldn't help but feel a little awkward.

He would only take Chi Dan as a joke. In order to make the oath more persuasive, he didn't mind giving Chi Dan a better suggestion.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist, you're really funny. It's better to not joke around. Let's use the Heavenly Tribulation to swear!"

A convincing oath was nothing more than using what he feared the most as a bargaining chip. The moment he broke the oath, the oath would be fulfilled and the thing he feared the most would happen.

Humans had seven emotions and six desires, and they were most afraid of inner demons. They swore on their inner demons that once they broke their vows and advanced, their inner demons would wreak havoc and be eternally doomed.

Demons of the heart rarely appeared when demonic beasts advanced. By the oath of the demons of the heart, they weren't affected in the slightest, but heavenly tribulation was of the same effect on them.

When demonic beasts advanced to become divine beasts, they had to undergo the thunder tribulation. Because countless demon kings had died under the thunder tribulation, many of the demonic beasts were unwilling to take the thunder tribulation as an oath.

A hundred top grade spirit stones could shorten the time needed to cultivate, but the divine retribution could take the life of a red core, making it lighter than it was before. There was no way it could agree to the demands of having no blessings.

"You two little brats, let's go!"
