The exchange between Du Shen and Nikolai lasted for a long time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 After info, Nikolai deliberately let the innkeepers see his figure, and then returned to Flame Mountain.

Du Shen naturally cooperated with Nikolai to avoid suspicion in the temple. Du Shen used the double cover of the shadow dragon and the shadow core to sneak out of the city. Several of his subordinates pretended to be distant relatives of Nikolai. They left the next day with great fanfare.

From beginning to end, Du Shen was not noticed by others in Green City. In this way, Nikolai was basically eliminated.

Du Shen quietly left the city and ran to the nearby teleportation point. He traveled thousands of miles and arrived in the territory of the Kingdom of Lane. Du Shen took advantage of the night and rushed straight to the trading place agreed by Ryan.

When the full moon set, the east had not yet turned white, and when the night was the deepest, Du Shen dived into the villa and knocked on Ryan's door gently.

Because there was an agreed time for the transaction through the transmission crystal, Ryan was very vigilant and immediately got up and opened the door.

Ryan lit the candle, "I've heard that you've raided the headquarters of the Azure and Rock Temples one after another? ”

Du Shen smiled and nodded: "Is that so?"

Ryan hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said, "I've always wondered why you secretly used me to get the Wind and Fire. Do you want to emulate the ancients and try to merge the cores?"

Du Shen generously admitted: "There is this idea. ”

Ryan seemed to gloat: "Aren't you afraid that you will die violently because of attribute conflicts?"

Du Shen stretched out his hand and spread his palm: "I have sent my subordinates to attack Martina's hometown, and also let people injure all her family. Now that I've made a promise, should you also keep your promise?"

Ryan nodded, apprehensive, "Yes." However, there is a question that I would like to clarify first. Lest you be mistaken. After your people left, Martina's father died!"

Du Shen glared slightly: "You did it?"

I can't help but not doubt it. Although Du Shen did not personally preside over the action, he had advised his subordinates. The subordinates reported to Du Shen that Martina's family members had broken hands, feet and ribs at most, and that their appearance may be miserable, but in fact the injuries were not serious. Du Shen didn't believe it, and his subordinates didn't care about it or lied.

"I knew you were going to misunderstand," Ryan said frankly, "since you've already told you about it, I'm going to be stupid enough to provoke you?" If you are unhappy and want to kill me, can I resist even half of it?"

Du Shen was skeptical: "You really didn't send someone to do it?"

"Absolutely not," Ryan explained, word for word, and almost swore to heaven, "I have sent someone to verify that you have fulfilled your agreement." According to the message that came back from my people. It's as if Martina's father had a hidden illness. Because of his physical injuries, his hidden illness suddenly flares up and he dies! You can find out the truth yourself. There were two physicians who had treated Martina's father. They will prove what I say. ”

Du Shen was in a complicated mood for a while, but he didn't feel too much guilt. One Du Shen heard that Martina's father treated her extremely badly, which can be described as abuse. What's more, Martina has not yet entered the depths of Du Shen's heart.

Du squinted his eyes and carefully observed Ryan's demeanor: "So, I killed Martina's father?"

Ryan laughed directly, very happy: "The truth is not necessarily. But Martina must think it's your subordinates who caused it. I'm content now. You don't have to explain your feelings to Martina anymore. ”

"Hehe," Du Shen sneered twice, "how do I feel, it's you who killed Martina's father." I'm just carrying the black pot for you!"

"Hey," Ryan sighed, closing his eyes and stretching his neck and arms, "I knew it was going to happen." You are a sword, I am a fish. If you want to kill me, do it. I will not resist. Although I would feel wronged. ”

"I want to die," Du Shen laughed, "How do I feel like you're pretending? I'll decide whether to kill you or not!"

Ryan sighed and opened his eyes. He removed the Wind Core from his storage bag. It was a palm-sized, flat crystal. Ryan threw the crystal to Du Shen: "I just think that you will kill me in the end." Even if there was no accident with Martina's father. After all, you want to keep it a secret. And only the dead can keep it strictly secret. ”

Du Shen laughed cruelly: "Since you know that I will kill you in the end, you have no arrangement?"

"What can I arrange," Ryan said helplessly, "I still have my mother and relatives and friends." If I suffer death, I will die alone. And if I try to set things up against you. Not to mention that it can't cause you direct harm at all. My family and friends, I'm afraid I'll be killed by your anger, right?"

Du Shen nodded calmly: "That's the truth." Then come and die!"

Ryan was gloomy and walked slowly towards Du Shen: "When I think of the past, I always feel ridiculous. Back then, I genuinely regarded you as a friend. Before I die, I want to explain it clearly. Although I really hate Martina's father's mistreatment of her, I really didn't send someone to kill him!"

Du Shen stared at Ryan, who was slowly approaching, and his mind was racing. He reached out and slapped Ryan on the shoulder. He laughed out loud: "After all, you used to be my friend, and now you have helped me." How could I kill you? Martina's father, if you die, you will die! I didn't tell you a long time ago that I treat Martina like a mustard. How can his father be as good as you?"

"What," Ryan was overjoyed, momentarily incredulous, "you don't kill me? I'm going to spread the word that you've gotten the core of the Tempest?"

"We're friends," Du Shen smiled and patted Ryan on the shoulder, "I'm sure you won't betray me." What's more, don't you mean that you still have family and friends, if you really betray me. I'm not just going to kill you!"

"Are you really going to let me go?" Ryan confirmed, incredulously.

Du Shen nodded heavily: "Of course, I'm still somewhat nostalgic for the old love." Just like I couldn't bear to hurt Martina's family before. ”

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief: "Great. So, about Martina's father's death?"

Du Shen shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Then let it be." If Martina hates me, let her hate me. There is a big gap between me and her in strength and status. I don't like her, and I'm not afraid that she'll trouble me. ”

Ryan couldn't help but smile and be excited: "Then, you won't mind, right? I want those two doctors to hide the real cause of Martina's father's death." ”

"Hey," Du Shen frowned, very unhappy, "Ryan, I really treat you as a friend." How can you take such a good advantage of me?"

"Please," Ryan begged, "Du Shen, just help me! I really love Martina, but she's always on your toes. I won't let you help in vain either. Actually, I asked for two Perfect Cores from the Tempest Temple. If you promise to help me, I'll give you another core as well. ”

Du Shen's heart jumped, and he secretly scolded angrily. While assessing the risks, he sternly questioned Ryan: "You are not small, you actually make your own decisions. How many cores do you want from the temple?"

Ryan whispered in a weak heart: "There are only two perfect quality. A total of eight pieces of other qualities. The reason why there are so many is that I am afraid that the temple will be suspicious. ”

Du Shen secretly rejoiced: "Fortunately, I was informed by Ryan that the Wind Core has been successful. This is the attack on the Azure and Rock Temples. ”

Du Shen estimated that the problem was not big, and put his mind at ease: "Okay." For the sake of the old friendship, I will grant you this excessive request. ”

Ryan took out the Wind Core from the storage bag again and handed it to Du Shen. Du Shen put it away and instructed solemnly: "Ryan, I got the news that the core of the wind was obtained. Remember to keep it a secret! Don't let the temple suspect me. ”

Ryan briefly recounted his aftermath plan. He swore an oath: "Even if the temple comes to check, they won't be able to find it, and those two perfect cores are gone." ”

Ryan's aftermath is simple. That is, through secret channels, to find two inferior elemental cores. After all, after the core is fused, it is not easy to distinguish the levels. Ryan intends to pass off as high with medium and medium as low as medium. This replenishes the number of blast cores.

Du Shen said goodbye to Ryan and left the remote villa. Du Shen ran to the nearby teleportation point while recalling Ryan's performance just now. Du Shen was very suspicious that Martina's father was the one sent by Lane. Du Shen didn't intend to waste time tracking.

Du Shen will record this account on Lane's head, and of course he will settle it with Lane. But not now.

Du Shen could indeed kill Ryan easily, but Du Shen didn't believe Ryan's earlier words at all. Du Shen estimated that Ryan must have made arrangements. If he kills him, Ryan will surely have a way to stir up the matter at the heart of the wind.

As for Ryan, he said he feared for the safety of his mother and relatives. The premise that Ryan killed Martina's father is enough to see Ryan's ruthlessness and ruthlessness. He was deeply suspicious of how much he cared about his family and loved ones.

Even if Ryan didn't arrange a back hand, Du Shen would not kill him. At least not for the time being. Ryan is, after all, the spokesperson of the Flame Sanctuary. If he were to die, the temple would surely investigate him closely. When the time comes, the core of the blast will definitely be exposed due to implication. The secrecy pursued by Du Shen cannot be realized.

What's more, even if Du Shen kills Ryan, will it be revenge? Du Shen thinks it can't be done. And Ryan's planting of Du Shen will not be washed away because of this.

As for revenge on Ryan, Du Shen has already made up his mind, but he just needs the time.

As for whether Ryan will deliberately release the rumor that Du Shen has obtained the Azure Core. Du Shen is actually not worried. The design based on the Teal Core is only designed to save effort and reduce casualties among subordinates. If Ryan really released the news, it would not hinder Du Shen's purpose. At most, the price to pay is a little bigger.
