“Let me see who’s left?” Chu Yunsheng glanced at the other people one by one, quietly said.
The radiant and enchanting maiden behind the middle-aged man took the initiative to step forward and say, “Hello Mr. Chu, my name is Yang Xue. We have met each other at auntie Su Su’s place.”
“Oh?” Chu Yunsheng looked her, noticing that it was still the girl who spoke to him earlier, but he really still could not remember where he had seen her, then he shook his head and said, “I have a bad memory, but you have an ice elemental energy fluctuations, and your surname is Yang, such an old surname, and your first name means snow in Chinese, so probably you are the ice messenger Snow, right?”
He did not expect to meet an acquaintance here, and she was also from the Ice Race. Moreover, he seemed to have seen her in both the battle of the yellow mountain and the battle of Shu Du city. However, her impression in his mind was very vague.
Yang Xue said modestly, “In front of Mr. Chu, I do not dare to call myself an ice messenger, you can call me Little Snow.”
Chu Yunsheng suddenly frowned, and said, “you shouldn’t have been able to be revived so quickly, what happened?”
He remembered that in the yellow mountain, Ice Messenger Snow’s ability was much worse than that of the other people from the Ice Race, which meant that she had just been revived at that time. But now, she has been revived much earlier.
Yang Xue smiled slightly, “Mr. Chu is really a knowledgeable man. My foundation is not good, so my revival isn’t complete. Soon, I will need to return to the base to fix my revival. It is because of this that my memory is often a little fuzzy, and I often forget some things, otherwise, I would have been able to recognize Mr. Chu.”
Chu Yunsheng said in a surprised tone, “why do you need to recognize me?”
Yang Xue said honestly, “Before the darkness fell, Mr. Chu has already caused quite a stir, and every race has heard a little about you. Because I met you at Song Ying’s birthday party, so my people prioritize my revival first to facilitate contact with you.”
Chu Yunsheng has almost forgotten everything that happened during Song Ying’s birthday party, let alone remember the people who attended that party, but he didn’t expect that the Ice Messenger Snow would be there as well. In terms of what other races heard about him before the darkness fell, that was just trying to flatter him. If he didn’t have any power now, probably with Ice Race’s suspicious characters, there was no way they would discuss something peaceful with him.
This was also one of the reasons why he dared to expose himself. He was inside the Pseudo-Monolith, his current cultivation speed now was very fast. It was not the speed that he used to have could be compared with. Normal revivers of the five elemental races would not be able to keep up cultivation speed. In less than a month, he has already reached the peak of Yuan Tian stage two substage one, and soon he would be able to break through it and reach substage two.
In any case, Chu Yunsheng didn’t mind making a deal with them, so he nodded, “In this case, please ask Ice Messenger Li to come to talk to me. It is just some talisman technology, but if you want it, you need to give me a good offer.”
Yang Xue’s face was instantly lit up with happiness, obviously, still being affected by her human emotions, “elder sister Li is also in Shanghai. According to her, you also saved her and her family, so she always says that she wants to say thank you in person.”
Chu Yunsheng frowned. When did he save the ice messenger Li and her family? Why didn’t he know anything about it? Unable to remember anything, he decided to stop thinking about it.
Before he entered the Pseudo-Monolith he had already thought about it clearly that the five elemental races were not his biggest enemy in the simulation. Realm Messenger Ge and the crystal-dressed beings that followed her were the biggest threat. After all, not only did Realm Messenger Ge want the ancient book, but she also wanted both him and his family’s life.
If he could gather one or two alien races to support him, he would not mind giving them the talisman technology, even if he was not inside the Pseudo-Monolith. Besides, he still wanted to spend more time translating the ancient book, there was no way he would be able to keep it as a secret. Sooner or later, it would be leaked, so he was psychologically prepared.
But what Chu Yunsheng could not figure out the most, and what he concerned the most was the Duo Neng Race. Whenever he thought of No.1 that old man, it would send a chill to his spine. Therefore, his attention gradually shifted to the middle-aged man who spoke the most.
The man smiled lightly and said, “Since everyone has told you about their true identity, I will not conceal it from you as well. I am from the Duo Neng race. Now that you know our true identity, it should be easier for us to discuss it. Mr. Chu, even if you have the Ice Race’s support, it is still useless, the book in your hand belongs to the Chu Clan, we need to take it back. Whether you admit it or not, that book needs to be returned to its original owner. Since you are now in Shanghai, you will not be able to escape from here. Although you are powerful, we also have powerful people, and they are not weaker than you. At the moment, they have already surrounded this building, and there are also military troops assisting us. This is just a trap, so Mr. Chu, if you are a smart man, you should give up resisting us. Once you return the book to us, we will send you to the headquarters and give you the best treatment .”
The middle-aged man said calmly. It was such a long message, but he could say it without stammering, and the meaning of the message he wanted to express was clear and easy to understand. His voice was sonorous and powerful, but it also contained the euphemistic pity. When he finished, he looked at Chu Yunsheng in a sedate manner, clearly showing the graceful and elegant bearing of a man from the upper-class.
Unfortunately, Chu Yunsheng was not a gentleman. He would not appreciate the poise of the upper-class. Instead, it would only make him feel that the Duo Neng Race and the Chu Clan’s people were hypocrites even more, so he turned around and said, “Old Youling, what did you call them earlier?”
After being humiliated by one of the Fire Race, Old Youling was so angry that it replied immediately without even thinking about it, “a bunch of inferior humans!”
Chu Yunsheng thought Old Youling would say something that he could use to mock Duo Neng race, so he was ready to agree to it, “yes, a bu-” But then he immediately realized that Old Youling did not say something that he wanted it to say, so he glared at it and said, “what!?”
Old Youling shuddered immediately. Seeing its boss was not happy, it knew that it had said something wrong again, so it quickly changed, “a bunch of inferior parasites!”
After it finished, it immediately looked at Chu Yunsheng again to check if it said the right thing this time.
However, because of what he said earlier, Chu Yunsheng was no longer in the mood to mock Duo Neng Race. He simply said sulkily, “Since the moment I entered this hall, this is the only right sentence you said.”
Old Youling hurriedly nodded. Fearing to say something wrong again, it didn’t even dare to speak this time.
A faint anger appeared on the middle-aged man’s face, but he could still hold it back and said calmly, “Mr. Chu, there is no need to ridicule us, and I will not keep what Mr. sect leader said in mind. Sect leader’s life form may be superior to us, but I think that is also the reason why you are able to restrain it. Everything has its own advantages and disadvantages. The method that you can use to restrain it may not be working on us. Ultimately, it comes down to everyone’s strength. Now that the building is surrounded by a large army and there are also many powerful people, it’s a childish behavior to talk about parasites.”
In the face of his long speech, Chu Yunsheng patiently waited until he finished. Then he turned to the ice messenger Yang Xue and asked, “I’ve heard that Duo Neng Race is a group of unreliable creatures. They would always break their promises. You, ice race, have been dealing with them for so long, I wonder if you heard of this as well?”
The appearance of Yang Xue looked like seventeen or eighteen years old, and probably because her revival wasn’t complete, she still had all kinds of human emotions. She couldn’t hide the gloating expression in her eyes when Chu Yunsheng mocked Duo Neng Race. However, she probably still didn’t dare to offend the middle-aged man, she could only say euphemistically, “my revival isn’t complete, so I still don’t remember many things in the past.”
Chu Yunsheng gave an understanding expression and said, “that is to say after the revival is complete, you will know, right?” Turning to the middle-aged man, he then said simply, “since that’s the case, I’m afraid that I can’t trust Duo Neng Race. I am sorry that I will not go with you to that headquarters of yours.”
The middle-aged man’s face was livid when Chu Yunsheng finished talking. He said coldly, “So Mr. Chu wants to use force? You have to think clearly that you are not only facing the wrath of an entire long-standing and powerful race but also the army of the human race that is capable of destroying this city.”
Chu Yunsheng’s eyes emitted a cold gleam and sneered, “Yes, I understand that, but you don’t seem to understand that this city also belongs to humans!”
“Since you don’t want to negotiate, then my job is done here. Let’s see each other on the battlefield! Bye!”
Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, the man turned around with a cold face and was about to leave the hall.
Chu Yunsheng was very amused by the way he threatened him, “After saying all those things, you just want to leave? Do you think this is Duo Neng Race’s garden? A place that you can come and go at will?”
The middle-aged man stopped, but he didn’t panic, he simply said lightly, “If you kill me now and if they lose my signal, they will immediately take action, and you will lose your last chance. If you don’t want to die so fast, you need to let me leave. Besides, this is the phantom sect, even if the sect leader is controlled by you, many sect disciples don’t want to die.”
“I don’t understand why No.1 that old man would use you. Is he stupid or something?” Chu Yunsheng sneered and then turned around to Old Youling, “Didn’t you say that you want to eat people? Go eat him, then I will postpone your punishment for the moment.”
Old Youling finally got a chance to redeem itself. However, just when it revealed its fangs, it was startled again by a sudden thought in its mind, and said nervously, “Boss, please don’t listen to those people’s nonsense. I was simply trying to scare them. How would a kind person like me do such a cruel thing! They are lying! I have never eaten anyone before!”
This time, not only Lin Shuiyao but other people’s faces also started to twitch.
Chu Yunsheng was running out of his patience. He infused Yuan Qi into his hand, grabbed it, and threw it toward the middle-aged man, and said coldly, “stop talking nonsense and eat him!”
