Chapter 879 Using a debt of gratitude to repay a debt
On the beach, Zhao Mu and Luo Zining stood side by side.
A river breeze blows, and clothes sway gently.
"Speak, what exactly is it?"
Luo Zining deliberately kept a distance of more than three feet from Zhao Mu, in order to prevent him from suddenly kicking her again. As if she had thought of something, she warned, "Let me remind you first, don't take advantage of kindness!"
"I am indeed indebted to you for preventing me from being possessed, but that is not the basis for you to make arbitrary demands on me. I will find a way to repay this kindness, but if you force me, I will simply be an ungrateful person."
"..."
Zhao Mu couldn't help but feel helpless. This woman really had a strong temper and held a grudge until now. He shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't use your kindness as an excuse. I just want to invite you to join us and act together."
"If I'm not mistaken, you must have heard about what happened at Langhuan Palace before you rushed to the Tianlan River basin, right?"
"With just a few of you, the chances of getting a share of the pie in Langhuan Palace are extremely slim, and you might even be completely wiped out. After all, given the domineering nature of the Cang and Yin families, they will not allow anyone to set their sights on Langhuan Palace."
“Outside, the three lineages of the Holy Land still need to put on a show, but this is the Langhuan Secret Realm. All the forces in the Cangwu Realm have a common understanding: no matter what happens inside, we cannot bring our grudges outside.”
"Luo Zining, you don't want to go home empty-handed, do you?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zining said calmly, "If it's just this, then I refuse. Don't think I don't know that you're from the Yu family's camp. Inviting us? You're probably just looking for cannon fodder."
"Moreover, we don't have such great ambitions to compete for the so-called Heavenly Void Cauldron; we just want to pick up some scraps."
"Joining you? Forget about safety, it's actually more dangerous."
The words are rude but not rude.
Zhao Mu was not surprised by Luo Zining's refusal. He simply smiled and said, "Don't refuse so quickly. Listen to me first. Joining the faction is a must. Otherwise, when Langhuan Palace opens, those outside the faction will probably be driven out by the three lineages of the Holy Land."
"Whether what I said is true or not, you should know in your heart."
"Furthermore, if you, Luo Zining, really have no desire to cooperate, given how much you dislike me, you should have turned around and left by now, instead of showing no signs of leaving."
"Clearly, you're holding out for a higher price, waiting for me to offer the appropriate terms."
"So what!"
Having been seen through by Zhao Mu, Luo Zining didn't hide anything and said calmly, "So, what's your bargaining chip? Don't talk to me about a life-saving grace, it's meaningless, because the protagonist of this matter is Yu Ruoling, not you."
"The debt of gratitude you owe me for saving my life can only be used for your personal benefit; I don't accept that."
"I said that Cang Ming and Yin Yu combined are no match for me, Yan Lan, and Yu Ying. What do you think of this offer?"
"How sure are you?"
"At least 80%."
"you sure?"
Luo Zining was somewhat moved. Although she had heard about the Myriad Spirits Record and knew that Cang Ming and Yin Yu had been defeated, she had heard half a year ago that Cang Ming had killed a seventh-tier peak Deer Crying Crane in Thousand Crane Mountain.
The Deer Cry Crane is extremely famous in the Langhuan Secret Realm. It is one of the top-tier demon beasts, and in the outside world, it would definitely be considered a royal family of demon beasts.
Although no news has been released about Yin Yu, it is almost certain that his strength is no weaker than Cang Ming's.
But this bastard in front of me is 80% confident he can defeat those two outrageous guys? Can I believe it?
"What? You don't believe me!"
Seeing Luo Zining looking him up and down with a suspicious gaze, Zhao Mu chuckled, "Look, what's this!"
"Black Fox, Ice Dragon, Silver Bell Horned Fish..."
Looking at the several demon cores spinning in Zhao Mu's palm, Luo Zining frowned slightly and asked, "These are the top-tier demon beasts in the Langhuan Secret Realm, each of them at the peak of the seventh rank. Where did you get these demon cores?"
"Naturally, it was hunted at the Lake of Ten Thousand Beasts."
Zhao Mu carefully put the demon core away and said with a faint smile, "Now you can believe it, right? After all, that guy Cang Ming only hunted down a seventh-tier peak Deer Cry Crane. In my opinion, he's nothing special."
"Tell me, why did you come to me?"
After calming down, Luo Zining stared intently at Zhao Mu with her dark, inky eyes.
This guy has extraordinary luck and such strength, so why does he have to drag their Hidden Moon Sect into this? He must have other plans.
"What was that woman's name?"
Zhao Mu glanced at the remaining Hidden Moon Sect members, among whom was a tall, slender woman with a rather attractive appearance.
"My senior sister, Bai Qianqian!"
Luo Zining looked at Zhao Mu warily and said, "What are you going to do? Let me tell you clearly, I can't make decisions for my senior sister, and don't you dare try to harm her. Someone like you..."
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Zhao Mu immediately made a pause gesture and interrupted, "You're overthinking it. I have no connection with your senior sister, so why would I make a move on her? If I were to make a move, it would be on you. After all, you're much prettier than your senior sister."
"You...give up on that idea!"
Luo Zining took a half step back with some disdain. "If you dare to say such frivolous things again, don't blame me for being blunt with the Little Sword King of the Amorous Sword Sect, disregarding all sentimentality."
"Alright, alright, you can't even take a joke!"
Zhao Mu smirked and said, "I'm not after you, but your senior sister. Of course, the main character isn't me, but Jia Zheng. He met your senior sister at a serendipitous place and is starting to develop feelings for her. I'm here to play matchmaker for him."
"Of course, don't worry, I don't have a penchant for forcing others."
“I can vouch for Brother Jia’s character.”
"I don't need you to do much, just join us and give the two of you a chance to get to know each other and spend time together."
"Whether it succeeds or not, the matter of me saving you at Fenglei Mansion will be wiped clean, how about that?"
Luo Zining glanced at her senior sister, then at Jia Zheng not far away, and finally looked at Zhao Mu's face. This guy seemed to be telling the truth.
join in......
That's definitely a good choice.
Those few demon cores just now roughly prove that Zhao Mu's strength is above Cang Ming's. As for Yin Yu, not to mention Little Sword King, Yu Ruoling can probably handle him. In other words, the Yu family's camp has a greater chance of winning.
Even if we can't afford meat, we should be able to have some soup with the Yu family.
"Do not."
After a moment of silence, Luo Zining gave his answer.
"why?"
Zhao Mu was a little confused as to why this woman wouldn't agree to such a good offer.
"I mean no, that's in response to your last sentence. Although I really want to settle things with you as soon as possible, I still have my pride. This little thing is nothing compared to the life-saving grace."
Luo Zining said earnestly, "I can help you with this, but I'll repay your life-saving grace another way!"
