C3097 Defensive Against Micro Dujian
After a pause, Chen Xiao asked the most crucial question.
"One million divine origin stones." The maid answered.
"One million, that much?" Chen Xiao frowned and spoke with shock.
It was not that he could not take out one million Divine Origin Stones, but he really did not expect it to be so expensive. It was just a piece of news that was not that important.
Sure enough, the most expensive thing in this world was always news. Even for a Tribulation Transcender like him, it was still a bit painful. Especially considering that he needed to refine mysteries, and that there were many areas where money was needed. He couldn't help but become even poorer.
As the old saying went, a single cent could not defeat a hero.
Seeing that Chen Xiao was considering it, the maid hesitantly asked again, "Sir, are you sure you want to buy it?"
After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao suddenly asked, "Other than me, have you sold this news to anyone else?"
This was very important. If it was only sold to him alone, the price would be reasonable. If it was sold to someone else, it would be another matter.
Hearing this, the maid smiled faintly and said, "Master, you must be joking. If this news is only sold to you alone, then... It would definitely not be just this price. Moreover, you also know that... Such news would not be able to hide from people. After hearing the news, there will definitely be a lot of people who will rush here and try to hunt down the Tribulation Transcender Realm Violet Lightning Serpent Dragon."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao frowned. What the maid said was very reasonable. With the attraction of the Purple Lightning Serpent Dragon and the movement it could cause, it would definitely alert a lot of people.
The Violet Lightning Serpent Dragon's skin and crystal were too attractive for a cultivator. Even a Tribulation Transcender Realm expert would rush over after hearing the news.
After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao still decided to buy this news. After all, an opportunity like the Purple Lightning Serpent Dragon was something that could only be chanced upon by luck.
After missing this opportunity, there probably wouldn't be a next time, so he didn't have the chance to hesitate.
"Okay, I'll buy it."
"Thank you for your patronage, take care."
Chen Xiao walked out of the room with a smile on his face.
After Chen Xiao left, the maid immediately stopped smiling. She turned around and left through the back door of the room, entering an even bigger secret room.
"Manager Qian, another person bought the news about the Purple Lightning Serpent Dragon." The maid reported.
"Oh, got it." Hearing that, Butler Qian replied without even raising his head.
A moment later, seeing that the maidservant had yet to leave, Butler Qian paused for a moment before raising his chubby face and looking at the maidservant, he asked, "Is there anything else?"
"The evil cultivator who bought the news of the Violet Electricity Snake Dragon was only at the middle stage of the Prominent Divine stage. I suspect that there might be a problem with this person, so I came to report it to you." The maid said.
"Middle Prominent Divine stage, hehe, these people are quite bold, the servant girl said. They actually want to take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters to gain some benefits, hehe... Evil cultivators always liked to use some sinister methods. So, it was quite common for them to take advantage of others' misfortune. What problem could there be? It was just taking advantage of the fire. It depended on who had the greater courage. You can withdraw. Don't bother me if you have nothing else to do. " Manager Qian said with a sneer.
To him, he had seen too many such things. If evil cultivators were not greedy, then they would be called evil cultivators. It would be better to change the path of cultivation instead of being suppressed everywhere.
One could foresee that once news of the Purple Lightning Snake Dragon's reappearance spread, it would definitely attract many Tribulation Transcenders to come and fight for it. At that time, there would definitely be no lack of fights, and there might even be casualties.
For some people, this was an excellent opportunity to fish in troubled waters. It was reasonable for many evil cultivators to have such thoughts, and Manager Qian wouldn't think too much about it.
Even if the other party was only at the middle stage of the Prominent Divine Stage, it would be enough to fish in troubled waters.
"Yes."
When the maid saw this, she had no choice but to withdraw. She didn't dare to say anything else, even though she still felt that Chen Xiao's behavior was somewhat strange.
...
In the intelligence room's lobby.
After Chen Xiao walked out, he saw Cao Sheng still standing there. However, he did not continue to pay attention to the public information on the wall. Instead, he drank a cup of wine and waited for Chen Xiao.
"He came out? Did he get anything?" Cao Sheng asked when he saw Chen Xiao.
"No." Chen Xiao replied with a blank expression.
Even if there was, he would still answer in such a manner. Cao Sheng was indeed a little strange. As the saying went, one should not have the intention to harm others, and one should not have the intention to be wary of others. He understood the principle of being cautious.
"Haha, you don't even know how to tell lies." Cao Sheng laughed loudly.
Chen Xiao didn't pay much attention to him. He walked straight out of the Intelligence Tower and arrived at the square outside. He looked at the evil cultivators shuttling back and forth with a complicated expression on his face.
Since ancient times, both good and evil were irreconcilable. The battle between the righteous and the evil had always been one of life and death. There had always been no room for negotiation. In Chen Xiao's opinion, this was a matter that was perfectly justified and natural.
However, after experiencing this experience, Chen Xiao felt that there was no such thing as a difference between the righteous and the evil cultivators. They were just cultivators, but the paths they chose were different.
Cao Sheng glanced at Chen Xiao, then turned to look at the horizon and said coldly, "What do you plan to do?"
"I need to leave the Dark Island for a while to do something." Chen Xiao replied.
He had a lot of things to do now. Firstly, he needed to send the news back to Senior Sister Huo Yuan as soon as possible. Secondly, he needed to send the news about the Purple Lightning Serpent Dragon.
Regardless of whether the news was true or false, he couldn't miss such a good opportunity. He had to go and find out the truth himself. Perhaps, he would have a chance to obtain the treasure.
"Alright. I need to do something too. Let's split up now. Maybe we will meet again in the future." Cao Sheng suddenly spoke like this.
Seeing this, it was Chen Xiao's turn to be surprised, but after the surprise, everything seemed very reasonable.
Cao Sheng was very mysterious. He was afraid that his origin wasn't as simple as ordinary evil cultivators. He must have other intentions in coming to Dark Island, perhaps similar to him.
At this moment, both of them had a tacit understanding and didn't say anything.
"Alright, I'll take my leave then." Chen Xiao didn't waste any more words, and he turned around to leave.
In next to no time, the two of them separated and left the Dark Island. In a flash, they left, and Chen Xiao was heading north. As for Cao Sheng, he was heading west. Obviously, the two of them were heading in different directions, and their goals were different.
Not long after, Chen Xiao left the territory of Dark Island. He slowly took out a piece of paper with three big words written on it.
Lizard Dragon Island.
"Lizard Dragon Island is to the north of the Dark Island. It's quite a distance away from here, we need to speed up." Chen Xiao thought to himself and immediately made his move.
