Chapter 529: Bargaining

The story of the Cardinals and the Night's Watch dates back more than 5,000 years.

At that time, although the Cloud Desolate Continent repelled the large-scale invasion of the Demon Realm, it also left behind a devastation, countless strong people fell, and countless inheritances were severed.

It was in this context that the Cardinalism was born.

As Ling Xiao knew, with the remnants of the Thousand Autumn Holy Emperor, the Cardinal Sect grew rapidly.

But for some reason, the Cardinal Sect, which has millions of sectarians and has great energy in both the secular world and the immortal cultivation world, has never participated in any overt disputes, but only silently does business to make money, and shoulders the mission of protecting the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen.

With the passage of time, after the death of the founding ancestor Immortal, the Cardinal Sect went through several twists and turns, and split into two forces.

On one side are the operators of the black market, who have inherited the name of the Cardinal Cult and are still operating in the dark, grabbing countless riches; On the other hand, he calls himself the "Night Watchman", who has inherited the mission of guarding the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen, and has been transcendent from the world for thousands of years, rarely appearing in front of people.

Although the Cardinal Cult and the Night's Watch have remained a transcendent appearance for 5,000 years, the Li Shu people have not forgotten them.

It is rumored that these two forces both have the mysterious inheritance left by the Thousand Autumn Holy Emperor, and their strength is extremely terrifying, even the most powerful Immortal Sect and Alliance do not dare to provoke them at will.

Moreover, in the past five thousand years, all the major events in the Cloud Desolate Continent can be vaguely seen behind the shadow of the Cardinal Sect or the Night Watch.

All kinds of legends and speculations have caused the Cardinals and the Night's Watch to become more and more unknown and unpredictable.

After listening to the old man's story, Ling Xiao finally understood the origin of the "night watchman", but he was also skeptical.

Through the old man's dictation, how could the night watchman also be a righteous organization, silently guarding the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen and maintaining peace in the world, how could this treacherous old man come out of front of him?

"Do you really have a Saint Emperor inheritance?" He asked curiously.

The old man was a little helpless.

The reason why he didn't want to talk so much nonsense with Ling Xiao was because every time he recruited someone, the other party had such a question!

Some greedy people will even directly ask for the cultivation of the Holy Emperor inheritance!

"You can say yes, but you can also say no. However, if you have a meritorious role in guarding the Ten Thousand Demon Ancient Forest, you may have the opportunity to check the inheritance of the Holy Emperor and his old man in person. ”

The old man replied mysteriously.

Ling Xiao was indifferent, and even dug out his nose, wanting to bounce on the other party.

Empty checks, he's tired of hearing them.

"Do you know the whereabouts of the Thousand Autumn Holy Emperor?" He asked again.

Ling Xiao did not forget to find the eldest brother for Xiaoshu.

The old man smiled ambiguously and said leisurely: "There are indeed some clues, but what about ......?"

However, Ling Xiao had to guard the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen before he was qualified to know.

This time, Ling Xiao didn't feel angry anymore, glanced at Nangong Zhu, and said lightly: "Senior saw that I defeated this pig girl, so he wanted to invite me to join the night watch, right?" ”

The old man snorted and did not answer.

This is indeed the case.

Nangong Zhu was personally recruited by him, and his strength was already the best in the loose cultivation, plus with the guidance of him, a Yuanying monk, these days, it has improved by leaps and bounds, even if he finally wins the championship in the Chengyun Competition, it is not impossible.

Who would have thought that after only playing in the fourth round, he would be defeated by this Ling Xiao who came out of nowhere!

The old man was shocked, but also overjoyed.

To guard the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen, there must be at least two powerful body forging cultivators, and he is worried about where to find the other one!

Although there are many strong cultivators in the Chengyun Competition, the proportion of forging monks is very small, and the few top ones have already decided on their next home before the competition, and they can't dig it at all.

Ling Xiao, who was born out of nowhere, has become the best candidate at this moment!

Although Ling Xiao didn't get an accurate answer, he also guessed that he was not far from ten, and immediately smiled, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite the old man.

The sleeves of the robe brushed over.

On the table, there were suddenly rows and rows of jade slips, all of which were contracts left by various immortal sect forces.

"Senior, do you want to borrow it?" Ling Xiao asked with a smile.

The corner of the old man's eyes twitched, he had lived for more than eight hundred years, and the profiteers he had met all laughed exactly like Ling Xiao at this moment!

"If you don't join the night watch, you should also return my fourth-order spirit stone! And it's useless for you to sign these contracts now, the Huntian Alliance will not have a stiff relationship with the old man because of a foundation, maybe it will turn around and terminate the contract with you immediately! The old man snorted, and made up his mind to continue playing the scoundrel.

Want to negotiate conditions?

No way!

But Ling Xiao was also stubborn, and sighed: "Since this is the case, Ling has no choice but to bear the debt of the fourth-order spirit stone. Rest assured, senior, after a few years, I have saved money, and I will definitely repay it to the night watchman in time. ”

The three words "night watchman", he bites very strongly, revealing a strong irony.

"If the seniors don't believe it, they can sign a debt contract with me."

Ling Xiao casually drafted an IOU and threw it in front of the old man.

Nangong Zhu opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Ling Xiao in shock, he didn't expect the other party's personality to be so strong, and he would rather bear the debt of the fourth-order spirit stone than be controlled by others.

The old man's eyelids couldn't help jumping.

Of course he couldn't have signed this contract.

Signed, it is equivalent to putting things on the bright side, Ling Xiao took the contract with his backhand and added fuel and vinegar to the outside, the dignified Yuanying monk blackmailed a foundation junior, and the face of the night watchman was still passed out?

And when the time comes, the Huntian Alliance will definitely not sit idly by.

If he didn't sign the contract, Ling Xiao would definitely pay his debts.

This kid is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, not so easy to fool!

It's just that this kid is stronger than Nangong Zhu, and after guarding the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen, there is a high probability that he will eventually join the night watch, and the night watchman should not let go of such a good seedling.

The old man was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Boy, even if you are ruthless, the old man will not go around in circles with you, and give you the same conditions as Zhu'er!" The fate of the knot pill remains the same, plus the annual income of 30,000 spirit stones, and at the same time, all your income in the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen does not need to be handed over! ”

Hearing this, Ling Xiao rolled his eyes and looked at Nangong Zhu, "Miss Pig, can you bear this condition?" What is the chance of getting married, what is all the income in the Ten Thousand Demon Gusen, it is all false, and it is true when you get it. ”

When Nangong Zhu heard this, she subconsciously looked at the old man.

The old man was so angry that he smoked and offered generous conditions with good intentions, but this kid turned his head and sowed discord, which was too hateful!

"How can a contract in black and white be false? At the end of the 30-year period, you will definitely get the opportunity to get married! And Ten Thousand Demon Gusen contains countless heavenly treasures, as long as you have the strength, you will definitely earn more than Yu Lu, why should you lie to you two little dolls? ”

The old man brushed his sleeves and said, these words were not only aimed at Ling Xiao, but also warned Nangong Zhu, so that she should not be bewitched by the "traitor"!

Nangong Zhu smiled awkwardly and lowered her head in silence.

"Wow, that's big!" Ling Xiao exclaimed at the freshly dug boogers, then flicked his hand and smiled.

"It's good that my seniors didn't lie to me, but I don't accept the same conditions as Miss Pig."
