82: As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend

"Did you get it?"

Outside the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild.

Yang Xiao walked into a hidden alley and saw Duan Haoming leaning lazily against the wall. He asked in a low voice.

"If you wanted the hair from that little bitch's nether regions, This Young Master might not be able to get it right now."

"But wanting a few strands of this woman's hair? That's as easy as pie!"

Hearing Yang Xiao's question, Duan Haoming raised his right hand.

Several white strands of hair were indeed fluttering in the wind.

"But are you sure... with just these few strands of hair, you can track the other party even if they're thousands of miles away?!"

Seeing Yang Xiao's eyes light up, Duan Haoming still asked with some concern.

"Brother Duan, don't worry."

Yang Xiao took the strands of hair from Duan Haoming, his voice full of confidence as he assured Duan Haoming.

"This time, it's a Heavenly Human Realm expert from my Prince Zhennans Mansion who is taking action."

"Although his cultivation is only at the Heavenly Human Fourth Realm, he is very skilled in formation arrangement and tracking methods."

"As long as he makes a move, this matter is foolproof!"

As he spoke, Yang Xiao had already put away the strands of hair and glanced at the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild with a sinister look.

"However, I hope Brother Duan... doesn't forget what you promised this Young Lord!"

"Hahaha, as long as you can help us intercept and kill those women from the Wanhua Sect and successfully seize that Xuanqing Snow Lotus Pill."

"Our Burning Flame Valley... will naturally help you get rid of that kid surnamed Xiao!"

Duan Haoming burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Originally, Burning Flame Valley only sent out Black Flame, the Fifth Elder, but after learning that the Xuanqing Snow Lotus Pill had fallen into the Wanhua Sect's hands.

To be safe, the Third Elder was also dispatched.

A strong expert at the Heavenly Human Realm, Fifth Level, plus a strong expert at the Heavenly Human Seventh Realm, along with the Heavenly Human Realm expert sent by the Prince Zhennans Mansion.

Unless the Wanhua Sect sends out several Heavenly Human Realm Elders, they won't be able to stop this group!

"Since that's the case..."

"Let's leave Tiandu City first and head to the path the Wanhua Sect must take, waiting for them to deliver themselves to our doorstep!"

Yang Xiao nodded upon hearing this and instructed Duan Haoming.

The group then disappeared into the alley.

"Big Brother, these guys are indeed eyeing those women, what should we do next?"

At another street corner, the white-clothed old man of the Black and White Twin Fiends watched from afar as Yang Xiao and Duan Haoming walked deep into the alley.

He then asked the black-clothed old man.

"That young man... is actually the Young Lord of the Prince Zhennans Mansion!"

Hearing the white-clothed old man's words, the black-clothed old man didn't immediately reply, instead, his eyes flickered constantly.

After thinking for a while, he made a major decision!

"We'll go pledge allegiance to him!"

"What?!"

Hearing the black-clothed old man's crazy decision, the white-clothed old man was almost scared silly on the spot.

They were currently Imperial Family wanted criminals, and they chose to seek refuge with the Prince Zhennans Mansion?!

Isn't this walking right into a trap?!

"Don't forget, Prince Zhennan is ambitious, and these past few years he has stayed far from the Imperial City, subtly showing signs of rebellion."

"Although we are Imperial Family wanted criminals, we have no enmity with the Prince Zhennans Mansion."

"And as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"If the two of us go pledge allegiance, the Prince Zhennans Mansion will likely accept us!"

The black-clothed old man's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and he analyzed in a low voice, which made the white-clothed old man's eyes light up.

What he said did make sense.

Although the two of them cultivated demonic arts, they were still Heavenly Human Realm experts after all.

Facing the allegiance of two Heavenly Human Realm experts, the Prince Zhennans Mansion had no reason to refuse.

And with the protection of the Prince Zhennans Mansion, it would undoubtedly be easier to evade the Imperial Family's pursuit.

Even if this Prince Zhennan's Young Lord refused, with the abilities of their two brothers, they were confident they could escape successfully!

It was better to take this opportunity to take a gamble, maybe they could even cling to a powerful backer!

As this thought settled.

The Black and White Twin Fiends exchanged glances and then walked straight into the alley.

"Saintess, things are indeed not simple..."

On the teahouse beside the street, the White-haired Old Woman glanced at the alley and said to Bai Suxin with a heavy voice.

She didn't expect that a small Xuanqing Snow Lotus Pill would be targeted by so many forces simultaneously.

"Next, keep an eye on this group of people, perhaps there will be some gain!"

After her eyes flickered, Bai Suxin said in a low voice.

Her Duanmu Xueying's injury was very serious, and the Xuanqing Snow Lotus Pill was the last hope.

If she couldn't bring back a pill that could heal her on this trip, she feared that her Duanmu Xueying would forever slumber in the Ten Thousand Mountains!

...............

On the other side.

Xiao Chen and his group, along with Nangong Jing and her group, had arrived in the VIP room.

"Excuse me, I hope I haven't kept you waiting."

Not long after Xiao Chen and the others waited, Zi Luo walked into the room with a faint smile.

"Miss Nangong, this is... the Xuanqing Snow Lotus Pill!"

After greeting Xiao Chen and the others, Zi Luo casually opened a pill box and sent it over to Nangong Jing and the others with a wave of her hand.

Nangong Jing nodded upon hearing this, and without any unnecessary words, she sent out a naring with a wave of her hand.

"There are four million nine hundred thousand spirit crystals inside, Miss Zi Luo can count them."

Zi Luo nodded upon hearing this, her divine sense scanned it, and after confirming there were no issues.

She instructed Nangong Jing and the others.

"It's safer for you to stay at the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild for the next few days and leave Tiandu City after your sect elders come to meet you."

"Thank you for the reminder, Miss Zi Luo, that's exactly what we were planning."

Hearing Zi Luo's words, Nangong Jing nodded.

Given their current situation, staying at the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild for safety was indeed the best choice.

"Okay, next, I have something to discuss with Gongzi Xiao..."

Zi Luo nodded upon hearing this, then said apologetically, seemingly wanting Nangong Jing and the others to excuse themselves.

However, before she finished speaking, Xiao Chen on the side waved his hand.

"It's fine, I trust them."

Xiao Chen heard this.

He roughly knew that Zi Luo wanted to settle the transaction payment with him, and there was no need to avoid Nangong Jing and the others for this kind of matter.

After all, Nangong Jing and the others had all been repaired by him, and they had affinity contracts formed within their bodies.

They wouldn't have any thoughts that were unfavorable to him, and for now, they could be considered trustworthy people.

"Since Gongzi Xiao doesn't mind, Zi Luo will speak frankly."

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Zi Luo immediately smiled faintly.

"The top-grade pills Gongzi Xiao entrusted to us this time were auctioned for a total of six million eight hundred and ten-three thousand spirit crystals."

"After deducting the twenty percent profit the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild needs to collect, Gongzi Xiao can receive five million four hundred and fifty thousand four hundred spirit crystals, let's round it up to five million five hundred thousand spirit crystals."

Saying this, Zi Luo paused, as if she thought of something, and then spoke again.

"And Gongzi Xiao previously owed the merchant guild seven million spirit crystals, after offsetting that, there is one million five hundred thousand spirit crystals remaining."

"The merchant guild is not in a hurry for this payment, Gongzi Xiao can make it up whenever you have it."

Nangong Jing and the others on the side were all bewildered after hearing this.

Wasn't Xiao Chen an Honorary Elder of the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild? How could he owe the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild so much?

Could it be that Gongzi Xiao became an Honorary Elder of the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild because he owed too much debt?

But that didn't make sense either!

"No need for later."

"Although this This Young Master doesn't have enough spirit crystals on him, these things are enough to offset this debt."

Xiao Chen smiled faintly upon hearing this and waved his hand, taking out some pill bottles.
