Chapter 1540: One-Tenth of the Reward?



Chapter 1540: Chapter 1540: One-Tenth of the Reward?

After the vision disappeared, everyone on the city walls and in the skies who had gathered to watch hurriedly dispersed, obviously eager to finish their preparations to set off for Slaughtering Spirit Mountain as soon as possible.

Having lived in the Dark Demon World for a long time, everyone knew that there was a powerful crow on Slaughtering Spirit Mountain.

Beiting Huang, who originally intended to discuss with Zhuu Yun to inquire if he knew anything about the Demon God’s Mausoleum, saw the vision which perfectly matched the location marked on the parchment. Beiting Huang was overjoyed, but couldn’t help criticizing in his heart; he had planned to excavate the tomb stealthily, and now the damned old Demon Ancestor had broadcast the news to everyone.

Returning to the Domain Lord’s Mansion, Zhuu Yun, the Domain Lord, arranged a series of matters necessary for the journey to Slaughtering Spirit Mountain the following day, before finally calling for drinks and dishes to entertain Beiting Huang and invited him to join the expedition to Slaughtering Spirit Mountain.

“The Dark Demon World is now divided into three, with the Spirit Realm and the Otherworldly Evil Domain occupying two-thirds of the territory, leaving only one-third for the Dark Demon Domain,” Zhuu Yun said with a hint of shame when discussing history, “If this time, with the Demon Ancestor’s warning, the Dark Demon Domain could gain some benefits, then there’s great hope for driving out the Spirit Realm and the Otherworldly Evil Domain!”

“Lord Huang Jiu is young but powerful. I wonder if you’re interested in going with us?” Zhuu Yun said, “If we obtain any treasures, my Dark Demon Domain is willing to give one tenth as a token of gratitude to you!”

...

Beiting Huang smiled but did not reply, and in his sea of consciousness, Yan Ye also felt quite helpless, “I thought this fellow might be of help to you, but to think, after just a few years, he has become like this!”

“A few years? Are you sure it’s just a few years?” Beiting Huang was somewhat speechless, scoffing, “One tenth? It should be me giving him one tenth as a dismissive gesture!”

Nevertheless, whatever the case, he agreed for now.

Beiting Huang nodded, “Sure, I was planning to take a look myself. However, I can’t guarantee that I’ll be joining you when the time comes!”

Zhuu Yun did not know the full extent of Beiting Huang’s strength. Although Beiting Huang provided a medicinal pill that saved his son, it did not necessarily mean that it was refined by Beiting Huang himself. Zhuu Yun had not witnessed Beiting Huang refining pills or taking action, and even when he went to the city wall to observe the vision, Beiting Huang did not take flight, making Zhuu Yun even more skeptical of Beiting Huang’s strength.

Zhuu Yun invited Beiting Huang and offered a tenth of the reward because Beiting Huang had saved his son and also presented a Heaven Rank magical beast to his son. Such a great favor could not go unreciprocated. Since Beiting Huang was unappreciative and oblivious to the kindness, Zhuu Yun could do nothing about it.

He nodded his head, “As long as Lord Huang Jiu joins us, you’ll certainly receive the promised reward. If Lord Huang Jiu encounters other opportunities, of course, I will not insist!”

“Father, I wish to accompany Lord Huang Jiu when the time comes!” Zhuu Shu stood up, pleading.

Beiting Huang was taken aback; he was about to refuse when Zhuu Yun categorically said, “No way!”

That was a joke— who knew the extent of Beiting Huang’s strength? He only had this one son, and if something happened to him while following Beiting Huang, killing Beiting Huang would be pointless.

Beiting Huang looked Zhuu Shu up and down; the boy must have contracted with that magical beast yesterday, his strength already reaching Third-Rank High Star. However, even with that, heading to Slaughtering Spirit Mountain would mean sending him to his death. Beiting Huang stood up and said coldly to Zhuu Shu, “If you want to go, follow your father, not me!”

Feeling slighted, Zhuu Shu looked at his father with some resentment, and Zhuu Yun also felt uncomfortable. Watching Beiting Huang walk away, he couldn’t see through this young man.
