With such an unforeseen event happening so suddenly, each of the bystanders looked at the door with a surprised look, even Iron Holler could not help but slightly tremble as his hand held the thirty green crystal stones. Clearly, he had never expected such lucky thing would happen!
Qin Wushuang also found it funny and extremely embarrassing. He never thought that he had been this valuable. Just a piece of information related to him would sell at this high price?
He was more than curious about who had paid so much attention to him?
From outside the door, a guest with a purple beard walked in with a composed expression. Next to him, a person with an indifferent expression followed.
This guest with the purple beard had a calm face as if he did not seem to feel the gaze of a few hundred pair of eyes. He did not even care about those stares.
On the contrary, his follower glanced around the entire scene with a look as sharp as a blade and made people feel that he was extremely vigilant.
“Mister, this… Are you the one that gave me this money?” Apparently, Iron Holler was unsure. The aura from these two made Iron Holler, who had seen a lot of the world, feel a lack of confidence.
The guest with the purple beard said with a smile: “Aren’t you the one selling information a moment ago?”
“Yes, yes.” Iron Holler had seen from first glance that his person was extraordinary. The other party’s eyes and movements had all showcased an imposing manner.
“Then, is this money enough to buy your information?”
“Enough, definitely enough.” Iron Holler bowed and nodded.
“Speak.” The guest with the purple beard waved his hand casually.
“Speak here?” Iron Holler showed a stunned face, “Should we not find another remote place? You paid for it, I should only tell it to you!”
“No need, just speak about it here. I paid the money and everyone can share the information.” The guest with the purple beard smiled at ease.
Iron Holler had sold information for half of his life and made a career out it for a few dozen of years. Yet, he had never encountered such a buyer who would buy the information and share it with everyone!
The person next to the guest with the purple beard frowned: “What? Just speak when we ask you.”
Finally, Iron Holler realized the light as he hurried to nod: “Ok ok ok! I will talk. Regarding this information, I came by it by a coincidence. If I tell you all the source of this information, perhaps everyone will believe me.”
Clearly, Iron Holler’s words were a warm-up to attract people’s attention. One must say that he had achieved the effect he had wanted. Apparently, Iron Holler also wanted to use this information to rebuild his reputation in this circle. Thus, he made a show of being very much in earnest when he talked about it.
“The source of my information came from the Dispersed Praying Mountain. What kind of place is the Dispersed Praying Mountain? It’s the border between the human countries and our Xuan Yuan Mound. There are a total of three major powerhouses in the Dispersed Praying Mountain. They is the Monkey Clan of the Monkey King Mountain, the Deep Abyss Barbarians, and the Red Maple Eight Bandits, or Red Maple Human Clan…”
“I say, can you make the long story short? Can you not speak so much gibberish?” Someone seated in the room was not happy about it as he could not help but urge him as he could not withstand Iron Holler’s style of keeping people in suspense.
Iron Holler rolled his eyes: “I say, this Sir, the ones that paid for my information were those two masters. You didn’t spend a dime, why are you hurrying me? If you want me to hurry, you should pay up.”
After he had finished, he laughed as he looked at that guest with the purple beard with an apologetic smile: “Please don’t feel ridiculed, Master. For this matter, if I keep the long story short, it would skip the important parts. I must explain the whole sequence of events. This way, it would show the accuracy of the information and make it worth the generous rewards you have given me.”
“No hurry, talk slowly. The more details the better.”
Naturally, Iron Holler felt even prouder as he received recognition from his buyer. He cleared his throat, rolled his eyes at the previous guy and said with a smile: “Regarding the background of the Red Maple Eight Bandits, those who read the stories should know that they are a group of prisoners from the Xuan Yuan Mound who escaped and established themselves at the Dispersed Praying Mountain. After generations passed, they became the Red Maple Human Clan. This Red Maple Human Clan was bewitched by the Barbarian Clan as they were scheming to lay claim to the foundation of the Monkey Clan…”
“Ha ha, everyone pay attention. Now, we are reaching the main point. The combined forces of the Red Maple Human Clan and the Barbarian Clan should beat the Monkey Clan as easy as pie. However, at this time, the headquarters of both the clans got raided. The one that raided them was extremely vicious and directly destroyed both clan’s holy temples. Originally, the main force of the Red Maple Human Clan and the Barbarian Clan were surrounding the Monkey King Mountain. After they had received the news, they had no choice but to retreat. During this return trip, the Red Maple Human Clan encountered the extermination of their entire clan. They were attacked by a powerful force from both their front and behind. All the direct descendants of the Red Maple Eight Bandits were executed!”
“Do you guys know that the Monkey Clan that was on the verge of extermination, how did they experience a sudden recovery and gain the strength to counterattack? Everything was due to one person!”
“Qin Wushuang!”
“Was it Qin Wushuang?”
This hint had instantly touched many people’s nerve. All of them realized what was being implied despite Iron Holler speaking all those extra words.
Iron Holler smiled with satisfaction and said seriously: “That’s right, it’s this Qin Wushuang!”
“From your information, perhaps, you know the background of this Qin Wushuang, his growing path, his grudge with the Red Dragon Nine Palace Faction and the reason why the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect is seeking to kill him. However, did you know? Did you know that Qin Wushuang shared a close relationship with the Monkey Clan? Initially, in order to save his teacher, Qin Wushuang headed to the Monkey King Mountain from ten thousand miles away and benefited a lot from the Monkey Clan. Thus, it was why he had aided and fought for their clan. Next to Qin Wushuang, there are two spiritual beasts of the most supreme power. This had also ensured that they could split into two teams to launch a sneak attack on the headquarters of the Barbarian Clan and the Red Maple Human Clan at the same time!”
When the guest with the purple beard listened up to this point, he was rather impressed and said with a low voice: “Hearing your words, this Qin Wushuang has some wisdom. With their power alone, they would not have a greater winning chance if they had gone to help out at the Monkey King Mountain directly. But they turned backwards to raid the enemies’ headquarters and lured them into retreating to defend their homes. Then, they hit them hard at the Red Maple Human Clan. Indeed, this is the best method. Only, does that Qin Wushuang truly have such formidable strength?”
Iron Holler laughed: “This is absolutely the truth. My information had come from the people that had gotten involved in that battle. In that time, they only killed the direct descendants of the Red Maple Eight Bandits and did not kill other people. Most of those surviving people had scattered to the human countries. I have used tremendous strength and through layers of relationship, I found people that had experienced that battle and got ahold of the truth.”
Earlier when he was hearing the description from this Iron Holler, Qin Wushuang had felt curious since he seemed to have seen everything. Now, he finally learned why by hearing his words regarding the source of his information.
“Hey, Iron Holler, you have spoken so much yet you haven’t even talked about the strength of that Qin Wushuang.”
Iron Holler gave an evil smile: “This is not within my information. If you want to know, you should pay the consulting fee.”
That follower next to the guest with the purple beard glared: “Are you raising the price now?”
After being glared at, Iron Holler’s entire body shivered as he immediately shook his head and waved his hand: “No no. If it were you guys asking, I will be frank.”
“Then speak about it.”
“Regarding that Qin Wushuang, I think his own strength is around the Perfect Stage. In our Xuan Yuan Mound, of course such level is not worth mentioning. However, this kid always seems to possess some indescribable variables. He always wins by a surprise move causing even enemies who were a few levels above him to suffer a great loss. From my estimation, even people at the Refined Void Martial Stage would only face death at his hands.”
“Death for Refined Void Martial Stage against a Perfect Stage?”
“Iron Holler, are you speaking nonsense? This is not logical!”
Everyone knew that although the Refined Void Martial Stage is only one level higher than the Perfect Stage of Spiritual Martial Force. This level was a huge gap and a fatal difference. It was a distinct difference.
After all, these were two completely different levels. Void Martial Stage meant taking in much spiritual and divine power. Regardless of how much stronger one is at the Spiritual Martial Force, they would only have the strength within their level and did not have any divine power.
Even if there were ten Perfect Stage of the Spiritual Martial Force, it would be nothing before someone at the Refined Void Martial Stage!
Thus, when Iron Holler spoke these words, everyone felt it was fake and went against their common sense. How could they not swear?
The guest with the purple beard only smiled and did not speak a word. Although this matter sounded strange, at his level, he saw it as nothing.
Apparently, Iron Holler wanted to flatter this guest with the purple beard as he explained: “That Qin Wushuang has a supreme bow and arrow. When he was at the Middle Stage, he could injure a Perfect Stage. Besides him, there are those two vicious spiritual beasts. At least one of them had entered the Refined Void Martial Stage! With such combat power, not to mention one elite warrior at the Refined Void Martial Stage, even two to three would suffer a loss.”
Through Iron Holler’s explanation, those freelance martial artists had understood. Inwardly, they started to make their own plans and weighed their strength.
Those freelance martial artists at the Spiritual Martial Force had apparently started to think about giving up.
Those freelance martial artists at the Refined Void Martial Stage were already starting to think about how to form groups to handle this mission.
Iron Holler chuckled: “Each of you think that the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect doesn’t know how to do their calculations? Is eighty thousand gold crystal stones that easy to earn?”
“This way, only elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage could take down this Qin Wushuang with success. Ordinary people could not earn this money at all.”
“Darn it, to ask an elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, eighty thousand gold crystal stones is not much at all. Initially, I thought the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect was generous. In fact, they are meticulous at planning and careful with their account book!”
Iron Holler was immensely proud of himself: “Don’t blame me for not reminding you guys. This reward will rise for sure. Before it reaches one hundred and fifteen thousand, it will not motivate any elite warriors at the Transformation Void Martial Stage.”
As Qin Wushuang listened, his mood was as calm as the water. It seemed that he was listening to information completely irrelevant to him. Heavenly Luo Daoist sect…
Qin Wushuang silently dwelled on these four words. At the same time, he knew clearly that behind these four words, they represented an irrevocable grudge.
Publicly chase and kill! This was a form of attitude. Despite having a friendly personality, it did not mean that Qin Wushuang would resign himself to death. The fact that he had endured silently did not mean that he did not have a temper.
Enduring it silently was only because he was waiting for the right moment to explode. This Heavenly Luo Daoist sect had bullied him unrelentingly and chased him around the world. Invisibly, it had stimulated Qin Wushuang’s fighting spirit and hot-blood. It had evoked his stubborn and unyielding spirit that had lain in the deepest level of his body!
“Humph, not to mention eighty thousand, even for a million crystal reward, what should I fear?” Inwardly, Qin Wushuang thought about it arrogantly. Again, that passion deep inside him had flared up again.
