Chapter 357: Trading Trap (Part II)
When Xu Changqing flatly refused, Raphael was also stunned for a moment, and then = "Why?"
"No, these are all your Western affairs, and they have nothing to do with my Eastern cultivation world, so I have no need to meddle at all. Xu Changqing smiled coldly and said, "And what good is it for me to meddle in this matter? I really don't see any benefit, and you can't give me what I want." On the contrary, there are a lot of disadvantages of this matter, the most direct is that I will be hunted down by the angels of the Western Church and the demons of the underground council at the same time, and even if I have the ability to reach the heavens, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out of it. β
Raphael's thoughts at this moment had gradually been swayed by Xu Changqing, and he didn't think much about it at all, so he said casually: "Don't you Eastern cultivators pay attention to building merit? You should know very well how many ordinary mortals will be used for blood sacrifice in their Divine Prison Project, if you can stop them, you can get immeasurable merit, and that will also be of great benefit to your cultivation." β
"Your Excellency knows a lot about my Eastern cultivation world, and you also know the method of merit!" Xu Changqing smiled and said, "But Your Excellency has made one mistake, it is the Buddhist practitioners who pay attention to merit, while my Taoist practitioners focus on enlightenment, and immeasurable merit is dispensable. As he spoke, he looked at Raphael with a strange look on his face and said, "Your Excellency is so anxious to stop this Divine Prison Project, could it be that there is something else hidden in the Divine Prison Project?"
"What do you know, or are you already in collusion with those guys?" Raphael stood up suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the power hidden in his body burst out, his three pairs of strange wings appeared behind him, and three crossed swords were also suspended above his head, pointing at Xu Changqing, ready to attack at any time.
Compared with Raphael's anger, Xu Changqing looked extremely relaxed, his eyes flashed, as if he didn't care about the threat on the other side at all, he chuckled twice, and said: "It seems that I didn't guess wrong, you really are in trouble, so you will use this kind of sΓ©ance possession that you disdain the most to hide your breath and prevent others from finding it." Then he walked to the side of the wall, patted the stone slab covering the outside, and said, "You said that if I tear off the surrounding earth spirit qi at this time, and then fight with you for a while, will those demons in the city feel your earth aura and come over?"
Raphael's heart tightened, his face was gloomy, and he said, "Aren't you afraid of hurting Matthews? If something happens to me, Matthews won't be safe and sound!"
"Hehe! you are threatening me, it seems that you have indeed encountered a great predicament!" Xu Changqing smiled lightly, and then looked at Raphael with disdain and said: "It's a pity that you threatened the wrong person, and at the same time chose the wrong person, do you think I will care about Father Matthews's life? Although he is my teacher, if his existence threatens me, I will personally solve him, this must be very clear to Father Matthews." β
Raphael immediately closed his eyes, then opened them again, and his face became even more ugly. Now he understands that Xu Changqing is not wrong at all, Matthews's life has no value in his heart, this feeling is like a crucial chip in the hands of the casino, but the other party sues you that the chip is invalid.
At this moment, Raphael felt that he had nothing to do, and he began to regret attracting Xu Changqing with some regret in his heart, and the strength in his body slowly retracted, looked at Xu Changqing coldly, and said, "How did you see my situation?"
Xu Changqing said indifferently: "It's very simple. There are only two points. The first point. It's you who possess Father Matthews. The land which I have seen before is in the books of the land concerning you. I've never seen you possess a mortal. Because you think mortals are very dirty. It will pollute your body. Now you are possessed by mortals. It's so unusual. The second point. This church is the largest church in the West. But it's not in your sphere of influence. You are living here now. Except that it is to block its own aura with the help of the strange power of this cemetery. The others may be because you're at your end of the road. I didn't dare to go back to the monasticism. β
"You're a lot smarter than I thought. "Little by little, the status quo of oneself is unraveled. Raphael, on the contrary, calmed down. looked at Xu Changqing. said, "How are you now?"
"It's strange that you ask me what I want? And ridiculous. It's as if you brought me here. Now you're asking me what I want? Is this the way you Western Angelic Protoss think? The land is really different. See Raphael calm down. Xu Changqing continued in a mocking tone. Disturb Raphael's mind. Until the moment when the depression in the other person's heart is piled up to the apex again, and the normal thinking is lost. Only then did he say bluntly: "I will not meddle in your Western affairs." You'd better stop messing with me. Otherwise, the consequences are not beyond your reach. He said. He then changed his voice. And he said, "But." I can't cooperate with you to stop that hell project, though. But I can make a deal with you. I believe that this deal will be very useful to you. β
"What?" Raphael couldn't help but be stunned for a moment with an angry expression. Suspiciously, he asked, "You mean you want to make a deal with me?"
"Pros. One qiΔ is for a good word!" Xu Changqing said matter-of-factly: "We have a saying in Huaxia. It's better to call it icing on the cake than to send charcoal in the snow. Your current predicament fits that condition. And I'm making a deal with you now. It also maximizes the benefits of my land. β
"You're pretty good at business. Raphael stared at Xu Changqing's face for a long time before he said slowly: "Say, what deal does Your Excellency want to make with me?"
Hearing Raphael's words, Xu Changqing understood that the other party had fallen into his own trap, and now he only needed to complete the last step to be freed. So he took the relict cross from his neck, placed it on the table, and said, "I guess your Excellency knows what it is? β
Although Raphael was dismissive of the relic, the cross, in the desert outside Aden, he couldn't help but be moved by seeing it now. But he seemed to have great concerns, and after a moment of careful thought, he said slowly: "The Relic Cross is indeed very useful to me, and with it I may be able to get rid of the entanglement of Michael and Beelzebub. However, this thing is also very dangerous, and if I have it, it may involve me in other unknown troubles, so it is not worth it. β
Xu Changqing seemed to have expected this a long time ago, so he didn't care, but said with a smile: "Isn't it cost-effective?
