Special War God

Chapter 156 Xu Dejing's Seduction

Xu Dejing was busy observing the mysterious mist that was swirling around him, and had not yet taken Xu Qian up into the air. Xu Qian knew Xia Zhongnan's strong character very well, and knew that if Xu Dejing continued to argue with him in this tough way, the conflict between the two brothers would definitely escalate to a point where it could not be resolved. She could not help but worry secretly, not knowing how to deal with this possible situation.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the heights seemed frozen, and many monsters were staring at Xu Dejing with hostility in their eyes. If he was not careful, the monsters would probably attack him. A mere cultivator in the Crossing Tribulation Stage would be torn to pieces in an instant when surrounded by so many monsters.

Xu Dejing glared at Xu Qian with dissatisfaction, blaming her for talking too much. Although he knew the current situation well, he still chose to show weakness to Xia Zhongnan to test his background. Deep in his heart, he always regarded Xia Zhongnan as a family servant, and believed that all the opportunities Xia Zhongnan had obtained should belong to the Xu family.

These vast numbers of monsters represent such rich cultivation resources! Once the Xu family controls these resources, it will surely usher in earth-shaking development. Xu Dejing had previously received 70,000 to 80,000 spiritual stones from Xu Qian, and it seemed as if he had seen the dawn of his breakthrough to the God Transformation Realm. With the help of this batch of monster resources, after he successfully advances to the God Transformation Realm, even if he cannot establish his own fairyland, it is not a problem to create an extraordinary sect.

Faced with such a huge temptation, how could Xu Dejing not have other thoughts? How could he not frantically test Xia Zhongnan's bottom line?

Xu Dejing landed back on the ground and stood beside Xu Qian. Under the fierce gazes of the monsters, he felt that it was safer to stay close to Xu Qian, as he had already realized that the monsters would not take any action against Xu Qian.

Xu Qian originally thought that her father would listen to her advice, but now seeing him walking up to her, she couldn't help but advise him anxiously: "Dad, just agree to Xia Zhongnan's request! We already have abundant resources for cultivation, why bother coveting these monsters!" As she said that, she took out a bunch of storage rings she had just collected and handed them to Xu Dejing.

However, this time, Xu Dejing did not take the ring, but turned to Xia Zhongnan and said, "Xia Zhongnan, I heard Qian'er talk about you in my early years, so I asked her to jointly organize the 'Chiyan Outstanding Talents Meeting' with Qin'er so that I could get to know you more. After going through so many things, I can see that you are indeed a rare talent.

Our Xu family always spares no effort to cultivate talents and is happy to promote them to important positions. How about this? After leaving this immortal palace, whether you want to replace Liu Daba as the general of the 13th Army, or take charge of the rest of the Blazing Legion, I promise to fulfill your wish.

As for these monsters, I will naturally not publicize them. As long as you can control them and use them for your own benefit, it is equivalent to serving my Xu family. How could I make my resources public and attract the covetous eyes of the world?"

Xia Zhongnan said in a deep voice: "My Lord, these spirit beasts are all my close friends, not my private collections. Therefore, once they leave my paradise, I will do my best to protect them and make them retreat one by one, and I will never turn around and deal with them. As for myself, I have no intention of replacing General Liu and becoming the commander of the 13th Army, nor do I intend to join the remaining Chifang Army and take a high position. I can only feel deeply honored for your kindness, but it is difficult for me to accept it."

Xu Dejing shook his head and sighed, "How can you be so ignorant of worldly affairs? A man should be self-reliant. Only by climbing step by step can you obtain sufficient cultivation resources and thus advance to a higher level of cultivation. In this cultivation continent, strength is supreme. If you want to be respected by others, you must speak with your own strength.

You must listen to my advice. As long as you follow my instructions, I will definitely treat you well when I improve myself.”

When Xu Qian saw Xu Dejing calling Xia Zhongnan for a secret talk, she thought that he would use her as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Xia Zhongnan. She couldn't help but feel a mixture of nervousness and anticipation in her heart, hoping to take this opportunity to see clearly what Xia Zhongnan felt for her.

However, at this moment, Xu Dejing did not mention her existence and the relationship with Xia Zhongnan, which chilled her heart instantly, and she realized that Xu Dejing had no intention of marrying her to Xia Zhongnan. She knew Xia Zhongnan's current situation very well. Even if Xu Dejing took away the two storage rings containing 80,000 high-quality spiritual stones that she gave him, Xu Dejing's cultivation resources were still not as good as Xia Zhongnan's. Moreover, Xia Zhongnan had the Wentian Palace behind him, and his future path had been planned. Xu Dejing wanted to impress Xia Zhongnan with just the position of the commander of the 13th Legion, which was simply a daydream.

As expected, Xia Zhongnan responded decisively: "You don't need to worry about this matter, Lord Governor. Everyone has their own opportunities and fortunes. I will naturally fight for my own opportunities. Now I just beg Lord Governor to make a promise not to disclose the existence of these spirit beasts to the outside world."

As long as Xu Dejing kept his mouth shut, it would be enough. With Xia Zhongnan's current strength, he was indeed unable to compete with these spirit beasts.

Seeing Xia Zhongnan's firm stance, Xu Dejing felt very depressed and turned to Xu Qian and said, "Qian'er, come and persuade this stubborn man."

Unexpectedly, Xu Qian said bluntly: "Dad, you don't have to say anything, he won't agree."

Xu Dejing angrily scolded: "Qian'er, why are you speaking for outsiders?"

Xu Qian answered frankly: "Dad, I know Xia Zhongnan better than you do. He will definitely not agree to your proposal. Those spirit beasts are all living creatures. Why do you insist on using them? Why don't we each accept our fate and practice on our own? You'd better agree to Xia Zhongnan, otherwise once this foggy land becomes a bloody land, we will have no way out."

Xu Dejing looked in the direction of the fog and found that the fog seemed to be getting closer to their position. He couldn't help but sighed: "Forget it, Xia Zhongnan, I promise you that I will never reveal anything about those spirit beasts. However, Xia Zhongnan, I still need to remind you that without my support in the Chifang Army, you will have a hard time."

Having failed to win over Xia Zhongnan, he turned around and showed his threatening intentions. At the same time, he did not hesitate to seize a pile of storage rings that Xu Qian had just collected.

Xia Zhongnan responded calmly: "As long as the governor agrees to this matter, you don't need to worry about other things."

He turned to the crowd and said, "The governor has promised not to reveal our whereabouts. You should quickly form a team and step into this mysterious illusion together."

Gazing at the vast and mysterious fog, the alien beasts no longer hesitated and formed three teams in an orderly manner according to Bai Ze's command.

Even though they can all move freely in the fog, they still need to rely on Bai Ze's guidance if they want to accurately find the secret passage to escape from this place.

At this moment, a melodious voice suddenly came from afar, "Fellow Daoist Linghu Chong, can you take me with you?"

Following the sound, a female cultivator dressed in black leaped out from the mountain stream and walked slowly towards this side. At the same time, dozens of human cultivators quietly appeared from various hidden places.

The person who spoke was Yan Xiaoying. This chaos did not involve everyone. Some monks were still hiding nearby and escaped the devastating massacre. At this moment, they all realized that there was a hidden danger in the Immortal Mansion. Only by leaving with these strange beasts and human masters could they hope to escape from this land of heaven's punishment.
