Chapter 818: A Painful Slash



After all, the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan was notorious and tales of their evil deeds were well-known even across the four seas. They were essentially the public enemy of the cultivation world.

"A thousand high-grade aeth essences? That\'s far from enough."

Lin Xun was unfazed as he continued, "I do not believe that the person you guys have placed a bounty on is worth so little."

The black-robed youngster frowned as an iciness flashed in his bewitching blood-colored pupils, seemingly not expecting the person who came to receive the reward would dare to ask for more.

It caused a murderous impulse to rise in his heart.

A pretty lady with snow-silver hair said from the side, "Brother Gou Qi, it seems that this friend is very sure of himself. It won’t hurt to give him a little more aeth essences as long as he can provide a lead to that little shit’s whereabouts."

She exuded a coquettish aura which made her appear extremely sexy when paired with her scarlet-red lips, ample bust, and smooth white skin.

Upon hearing her words, an almost undetectable iciness flashed in Lin Xun’s black eyes that were hidden under the brim of his hat.

Little shit?

These words alone had sentenced her to death in Lin Xun’s eyes.

Clang!

The black-robed youngster called Gou Qi threw out another storage bag and said with an icy expression, "This contains three hundred high-grade aeth essences. In total, that’s one thousand three hundred high-grade essences. I believe that this price is already enough to buy a Half-Step King expert’s life. If you’re still dissatisfied, don’t blame me for no longer showing any courtesy!"

Lin Xun did not even look at it as he shook his head. "It’s not enough. I can tell you the exact location of that target, which I believe is worth far more than this little bit of aeth essence."

Even the watching customers could not help but wet their lips at this moment. So greedy, isn’t he afraid that his greed will lead him to his death?

One thousand three hundred high-grade aeth essences was already a sky-high amount that even Half-Step King experts would willingly go into servitude for!

But he claimed it wasn’t enough?

"Friend, you\'re going too far! “

Gou Qi\'s expression was ice-cold as horrifying icy light seemed to overflow from his scarlet pupils. "Do you really think that my Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan are wastrels?"

"Heh, you think you have us by the neck and can cut off a big slice of our flesh just because you have a measly clue? Friend, are you sure you want to do that?"

The silver-haired woman let out a soft chuckle. "Humans should have self-awareness. If you obediently cooperate, you might be able to earn some goodwill from my Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan."

She intentionally mentioned the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan as both a warning and a threat.

Lin Xun laughed without making a sound and said, "From what I know, the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan is a mighty clan that has factions all over the Ancient Wasteland Domain, and yet you guys can\'t even take out a little aeth essence? That is truly disappointing. It seems that none of you wish to obtain a clue about the target. In that case, I\'ll be taking my leave."

After speaking, he turned to leave.

"Stop right there!"

Gou Qi abruptly rose to his feet, displaying all of his murderous intent. The pressure he gave off was so terrifying that it caused the other customers to feel a chill as their expressions changed drastically.

Lin Xun leisurely said, "If you attack, it will be equivalent to telling the whole world that the bounty issued by your Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan is merely a front and that you guys are deliberately making a fool of everyone."

"You―"

Gou Qi was so angry that his complexion turned steely-green. He wanted to slap this bastard to death. Never had he seen anyone who dared to threaten their clan in such a manner!

The silver-haired woman interjected at this moment, "Brother Gou Qi, this friend is right that we might break our trust. Since that is the case, you should quote a price, my friend."

Murderous intent flickered in her heart as she transmitted to Gou Qi, "Satisfy him first. It won’t be too late for us to take back the reward from his corpse after we get the clue."

Gou Qi’s expression darkened, but he did not say anything else.

"I believe it should be at least five thousand high-grade aeth essences, right?"

The other customers’ eyes nearly popped out at these words, thinking they had misheard. This wasn’t just being greedy but clearly intending to give a painful slash to the black dogs!

Gou Qi almost exploded from anger as murderous intent overflowed from his eyes. "Are you certain?"

Lin Xun casually said, "Of course it’s still negotiable, but it can’t go much lower. After all, many people know that the target you guys intend to deal with is a very dangerous individual. If I leak his location, I’ll have to face the consequences of his revenge as well."

"Friend, you\'re clearly extorting us!"

The silver-haired woman was also enraged. They have never seen such a reckless fool. How dare he try to extort them? Was he tired of living?

Most importantly, they genuinely didn’t have that much aeth essence on them at the moment. After all, it was no small amount and was enough to buy a King-grade tonic or a Supreme King-tier Weapon!

In the end, Gou Qi restrained himself and decided to first satisfy Lin Xun. They would settle the score with him after obtaining the information!

"Here is three thousand high-grade aeth essences. If you’re still not satisfied, there is nothing else to be done."

Gou Qi and the others had managed to scrounge up three thousand high-grade aeth essences and put them into a storage bag.

He frostily looked at Lin Xun. "You can tell us now, right?"

Three thousand high-grade aeth essences for a mere piece of information!

The hearts of the other customers were violently shaken. At the same time, they began to realize how determined the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan was about killing the target.

At this juncture, even the Feather Sword Sect successors and the Fifth Crown Prince of the Fire Crow Clan, Lu Jiuge, in another private room were startled.

"Who is this person? He’s pretty audacious to try and extort the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan.” Lu Jiuge softly chuckled. He was dressed in a fiery-red robe and a white jade belt with an ever-present look of pride on his handsome face.

"I have met him once before."

Zhuo Kuanglan frowned slightly. "Although he is from a lower plane, I did not expect that he would choose to snitch to the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan. How disgraceful. Junior Brother Xie, since you know him, can you tell us what kind of person he is?"

He looked toward Xie Yutang.

"Him? He was merely an uncouth youngster from a poor and remote village. However, I too never imagined that he would be so spineless. It seems that I will have to draw a line with him from now on! “

Xie Yutang displayed an indifferent expression despite being somewhat angered. He felt that Lin Xun had made him lose face in front of everyone, and was ashamed and disgusted to be associated with the latter.

Lu Jiuge acknowledged with a soft grunt and said, "I am rather curious about the person who is being targeted by the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan. To think that they would go so far as to offer three thousand high-grade aeth essences for a mere clue."

One of the Feather Sword Sect successors immediately said, "Speaking of this matter, I did hear that just a while ago, there was a news report regarding a young man called Lin Xun from the News Tree in the city...”

He recounted the events about Lin Xun’s bounty and also briefly mentioned the astonishing duel between Lin Xun and the young lady wearing a silver mask.

Even Zhuo Kuanglan and Lu Jiuge were amazed, and surprised that there was such an incredible individual in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

"By the way, Junior Brother Xie, isn’t that youngster from the lower plane also called Lin Xun?” Zhuo Kuanglan suddenly recalled something as bewilderment flashed in his eyes.

Xie Yutang was also inwardly shocked beyond belief after hearing everything. He instinctively shook his head and said, "It can’t be him, it must be someone else with the same name."

You must be kidding!

If Lin Xun is a supreme heaven pride, what would that make me?

It’s definitely impossible!

The others seemed to be relieved by this. Indeed, how could a youngster from the lower plane possess such unrivaled might?

Moreover, it had been denied by Xie Yutang himself, who was acquainted with the youngster from the lower plane. It was impossible for these two Lin Xuns to be the same person.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun immediately agreed to the generous offer of three thousand high-grade aeth essences with a wide grin. "It\'s just barely enough."

What do you mean by barely enough?

Upon hearing this, Gou Qi’s, the silver-haired woman’s and the other black dog experts’ faces grew increasingly stormy, nearly unable to restrain their murderous impulse.

Lin Xun reached toward the storage bag only to be interrupted by a stern shout from Gou Qi, "Hold it right there! You haven\'t even told us anything and you’re trying to take the reward? “

"I\'m just checking to see if the number is correct."

Lin Xun casually said, "What\'s more, I’m very suspicious that you guys are only making a verbal promise. Once I reveal the information, you guys might begin to regret this transaction. Hence, it will be better for me to keep the aeth essences first."

With that, he picked up the storage bag and weighed it in his palm.

Gou Qi wanted to strangle the other party so much that he almost shattered his teeth from gnashing them too hard. In the end, he held back and coldly said, "You can tell us now, right?"

All of them had stormy, ice-cold expressions, and were barely able to conceal their killing intent. Did he think their aeth essence was so easy to take?

This fool truly didn’t know how the word death was written!

"No need to be so antsy. I am right here and definitely can\'t escape. Is there a need to be so anxious?"

Lin Xun unhurriedly put away the storage bag and smiled, "I’m still a little hungry, do you guys want to eat together first?"

One of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan experts could no longer hold back and roared, "Eat your mum! If you don’t spit it out, I will rip you into two right here and now!"

"Friend, are you toying with us? Gou Qi was also furious as killing intent spread from him.

The other customers’ expressions changed drastically. Is a fight going to break out?

In the other private room, the Feather Sword Sect successors and Lu Jiuge also looked over.

Xie Yutang’s expression remained indifferent. He sorely wished that Lin Xun would be killed to save him from being embarrassed again.

Lin Xun withdrew his smile as he gazed at Gou Qi and others and said, "I wasn’t toying with you guys. I have been right here from the start, but you guys kept asking me for my whereabouts. I’m genuinely also at a loss about what to do. Is there anyone more stupid than you guys in this world?"

Everyone was stunned. What in the world is this situation?

Gou Qi seemed to understand and immediately shouted, "You...you’re Lin Xun!?”

The silver-haired woman’s and the others’ expressions fluctuated indeterminately as if they had been struck by lightning.

How could they have imagined that the target would appear in front of them of his own accord and even ruthlessly extort aeth essence from them?
