Chapter 289: 289 – Settled

Truthfully, he hadn’t expected these men to band together and attack him. He felt like he is being taken for a fool, toyed with. His anger was unimaginable.

Had it not been for Jiang Xiaobai holding him back, AnRan might have already charged up for a blood fight.

“Boss, why are you holding me back? I haven’t finished the mission you gave me!” AnRan cried out in a hurry.

“Alright, you barely hit the mark. This time, let’s not kill too ruthlessly. These people could still be of use,” replied Jiang Xiaobai casually as he cleaned the dripping blood from his sword.

In front of them, the remaining survivors were all showing evident fear. Their courage was shattered by the terror they saw.

They could never have imagined how two people could exhibit such terrifying capabilities. In less than half an hour, only a few of them were left. Those who could enter the Mad Demon Secret Land, how many of them were fools? Everyone needed expertise to even dare to enter this land, let alone getting this far.

At this point, fear had sunk in their minds.

“Spare us, Master Fatty, spare our lives. We were greedy and foolish, we admit it. We’re truly scared now, we won’t dare to do this again. Please show mercy, Master Fatty.”

“We had no idea about how powerful Master Fatty is, if we had known, we never would have dared to fight against you, Master Fatty.”

Upon hearing their words, AnRan burst into a furious laughter.

“Fuck, what do you mean? If today I, your master fatty, had no means to fight, were you planning to beat me to death?”

“Bunch of scumbags! If it wasn’t for my boss saying we need you alive, I would have killed all of you with a single blow!”

“Yes, we were wrong, Master Fatty. You can give us any conditions, as long as you spare our lives. Anything!” cried the leader of the survivors.

Jiang Xiaobai agreed, nodding his head.

Indeed, they cannot kill everyone. This action wouldn’t serve its purpose, and they still need more men. Only by scaring some men stiff can their goal be achieved.

“Alright, look at you all. You were so aggressive just now, and now you’re pissing your pants?” Jiang Xiaobai mocked.

The survivors’ faces turned red, but no one dared make a sound.

Though AnRan was more brutal, when it came to technique, he was nowhere near Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai was a true demon in kill, ruthless and cruel, chopping his enemies to pieces. Who wouldn’t be scared of that?

You only survived because you were lucky.”

Jiang Xiaobai sheathed his sword and began to speak calmly, “But that doesn’t mean you can just walk away. Hand over all your belongings.”

Without wasting a word, they took out their belongings. As roving adventurers, they knew what was most important. It was their survival, rather than their wealth.

They threw down their storage rings, which Jiang Xiaobai collected into his sack with a flick of his wrist.

“This is just a small compensation. We are after the business of Frenzy Demon Stones, especially for their essence.”

However, essence requires men to look for them. Can you all guess how much essence we lost today with so many men dead?”

Looking at Jiang Xiaobai, the men were all petrified. One of them, anxious to appease Jiang Xiaobai’s rage, raised his hand and said, “Don’t worry, big brother, we… we understand. We will spend our days looking for essence for you. Would you please spare us?”

“Remember. That’s what you all said.”

“Yes, yes, yes, we said it ourselves! We accept!”

“Right, big brother, rest assured, we will never betray you.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded in approval, “That’s more like it. But rest assured, I am not someone who is addicted to killing. I won’t make you work without compensation.”

“As long as you can bring back the essence, I will give you ten times the price per Frenzy Demon Stone, how bout that?”

“This price has only increased slightly. It’s not too much, right?”

“Not at all!”

Someone shouted out, “Indeed, big brother is wise! Do you need more followers, big brother? We would love to work for you!”

The rest of the survivors finally realized, this is indeed a good thing. If they could follow Jiang Xiaobai, the benefits are endless, especially knowing that they would have some backup.

Both of them possessed a level of fear-inducing power. It would be impossible for them to not have a background. As a normal cultivator, what they needed most was a backup!

Almost immediately, the survivors started pleading to Jiang Xiaobai, hoping to be taken under his wing.

Jiang Xiaobai felt a chill. They were treating him like a mob boss. He may have a follower like AnRan, but he was not going to accept everyone.

“Go, I have no such plans. Don’t even try that with me.”

“Let me tell you, go and find that essence right now!”

“Also, if you can introduce some customers to me, I will honor the promise I made earlier, and even offer you other benefits!”

Jiang Xiaobai waved dismissively.

They all looked disappointed but nodded frantically.

Not only did they manage to save their lives by giving up some wealth, but they also have the chance to retrieve the Frenzy Demon Stones, getting another break to score treasures. Would anyone be unwilling?

Jiang Xiaobai then gave them some instructions before sending them off. He then headed back slowly with AnRan.

“Boss, your method is really brilliant!” AnRan looked at Jiang Xiaobai with worship in his eyes, “You must have experienced a lot, haven’t you?”

“Cough, you could say that.”

Jiang Xiaobai coughed and then said, “Don’t think about these matters anymore. We should focus on what to do next.”

The mission would be done in a few days. So, they need to start preparing for what comes next.

“Aren’t we going into the secret realm?” AnRan arched his eyebrow.

“We will go, of course, we will go. But not at this point. The place is crowded with prying eyes. It is hard to do anything. It would be better to go in the last few days. We could take advantage of the time to find other opportunities.”

Jiang Xiaobai said before squinting his eyes, “The secret realm is not as simple as it appears. There are significant secrets hidden here.”

“Boss, how do you know?”

Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes around, “Fool, it’s a guess!”

He couldn’t say, of course, that his two godfathers had told him about the secret. The Mad Demon Secret Land may have something to do with the Sky Spirit. The information was serious and better not be made known to AnRan; he wouldn’t benefit from any of it.
