"I am naturally Jiao Ruhua, may I know what your name is?" After she relaxed her expression, she replied in a neither cold nor hot manner.

"This old man's surname is Zhang!" The prideful white-haired old man glanced at her arrogantly before lowering his eyes, no longer paying any attention to her. The setting sun beside him quickly led her to her seat.

"I'm naturally sincere. Elder Zhang, if you're a straightforward person, just name a price!" Jiao Ruhua trembled, and said to him anxiously.

Looking at his appearance, the white-haired old man's eyes flashed with a trace of evilness, but he still spoke in an indifferent tone: "Ten Low grade spirit essence stone, not a single one can be missing!"

"What? Ten spirit essence stone? Why don't you go and snatch them …" Hearing that, Jiao Ruhua was angered, he stood up and stared: "You are asking for it too much, for a mere set of martial arts technique, you want to take ten of my spirit essence stone?"

The white-haired old man watched his actions, his face immediately darkened, and said coldly: "First Lady, please take note of your attitude. I did not force you to buy something when I was alone and wanted to beat a person up."

Sunset's brows furrowed, he opened his mouth and interrupted: "Elder Zhang, are there ten spirit essence stone s?"

The old man surnamed Zhang turned to look at him, then slowly replied: "This old man here is a high-grade Heaven-ranked martial arts cultivation method, if my own aptitude is high, cultivating it would allow me to become a Infant movement or a heaven-defying martial art technique that cultivates it. The entire Cloud Empire and even the surrounding kingdoms wouldn't be able to find another set of martial arts, do you think this old man's offer would be high?"

With that, he stood up and stopped drinking his tea.

"Since you guys are so insincere, then forget about it. A good martial arts cultivation method is not something that no one wants. However, once you've passed this village, there will be no more shops. Just pretend this old man has never come here. Farewell!"

With that said, he started to walk towards the door.

Sunset's face immediately changed. Turning around to face the furious Jiao Ruhua, she loudly reminded her, "Eldest Miss, you …"

Seeing that, Jiao Ruhua's face also changed, she anxiously suppressed the anger in her heart and shouted at the old man with white hair surnamed Zhang, "Elder Zhang, wait! This matter can be discussed! "

The old man surnamed Zhang, whose back was facing her, stopped his steps as he heard these words. A trace of an evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it quickly faded away.

"First Lady, are you actually willing to give up ten spirit essence stone?" He asked slowly with half-closed eyes.

"Elder Zhang, why don't you come over and sit down for a cup of spiritual tea? Why don't we have a nice chat then?" This time, Jiao Ruhua's tone of voice was much softer. It was obvious that she had also realized her gains and losses.

However, it was unknown whether the white-haired old man Zhang was still angry at her or his personality. After hearing her words, he replied: "No need, First Lady is more straightforward.

With this said, the white-haired old man surnamed Zhang immediately muttered to himself, seemingly deep in thought.

After a long time.

Just as Jiao Ruhua and Sunset thought that the other party would not agree, they suddenly spoke out, and replied her: "Since that's the case, then this old man will reluctantly accept it, you guys are in for it!"

Jiao Ruhua was not pleased with what she said, but she did not dare refute him.

He hastily ordered people to go ahead and get the spirit essence stone and banknotes, while the white-haired old man surnamed Zhang took out an ancient looking bamboo scroll from his sleeve.

Seeing such an ancient bamboo scroll, no matter if it was Jiao Ruhua or the setting sun, both of their eyes could not help but light up.

After a servant handed a small cloth bag containing eight spirit essence stone s and a stack of banknotes to Jiao Ruhua, the other party handed over the simple and unadorned bamboo scroll in his hands. At the same time, he received the small cloth bag as well as the banknotes.

"First Lady, take a look at this Berserk Demon Tactic. If you feel that there are no problems, even if this deal is completed, this old man will leave as well!" The old man surnamed Zhang glanced at her and lightly said.

Jiao Ruhua was not a martial cultivator, so she was naturally unable to understand whether the cultivation technique was real or fake.

When he saw the contents of the letter, his eyes bulged, revealing a look of shock.

"First Miss, this technique is real, and it is an abnormally high level technique. Buying it with ten spirit essence stone s is not a loss at all!" He said to Jiao Ruhua with a slightly agitated heart.

"Really?"

Hearing this, Jiao Ruhua's eyes lit up again, and her heart was filled with wild joy.

At this time, the white-haired old man surnamed Zhang suddenly said, "Since there is no problem, then this old man will leave now. Farewell!"

"Elder Zhang, take care!" Jiao Ruhua could not resist replying.

However, the moment he left, his expression immediately became gloomy.

"Sunset, just who is this person and what is his martial arts cultivation?" A fierce glint flashed through her eyes as she asked the setting sun.

Seemingly seeing through the other party's intentions, Sunset's face darkened. He had no choice but to remind her in a low voice, "Eldest Miss, this person is extremely mysterious. Furthermore, his martial arts cultivation is higher than mine. I can't see through him!"

"He's that strong?" After Jiao Ruhua heard this, she became silent. After looking around for a while, she finally gave up on the idea of fighting the other party.

"Eldest Miss, since we have obtained the overbearing martial arts, this subordinate believes that we should immediately let Eldest Young Master cultivate and try his best to escape from this danger as soon as possible!"

Within the dark room.

City Lord's Mansion Law Enforcement Squadron flew up high and sat down facing the elite member of the Skinny Monkey Xu Cai once again.

"Xu Cai, hasn't there been any action by that brat Wu Hao in the past few days?" A hint of doubt flashed across Gao Fei's eyes as he asked his question.

In the past few days, he had always been paying attention to the situation in the Wu manor, but Xu Cai still had not spread the latest news regarding Wu Hao.

As such, he could only send someone to secretly notify the other party and have them return to interrogate him in person.

"Captain, for the past few days, Wu Hao has always been at the peak of the mountain at the back of the Wu manor cultivating all the way until the morning of the second day before returning. Other than cultivating all the time, he never observed any other movements!" Skinny Monkey Xu Cai answered truthfully.

"That's strange. Don't tell me he doesn't intend to take revenge?" After hearing what the Skinny Monkey Xu Cai had said, the doubt in his eyes grew even stronger as he muttered to himself.

After a long time.

He then explained to Xu Cai as he had done last time: "When you go back, continue to monitor his every movement. If there is anything amiss, send someone to report it to me."

"Yes, captain!" Xu Cai agreed after hearing it.

"Un, go on!"

Hearing that, Skinny Monkey Xu Cai immediately stood up and left the secret room, leaving Gao Fei to support his chin, frowning and thinking.

Thinking about it, he was afraid that there would be some kind of trouble in the Wu family, and he, the City Lord's Mansion Law Enforcement Squadron Elder, would be derelict in his duty.

He hastily found a few elite members of the enforcement team to monitor the movements of the entire Wu family and the three factions.

It was night.

In one of the rooms in Jiao Ruhua's courtyard, Wu Yu sat on his bed with a face as pale as snow.

It was just that the overbearing internal force in his meridians were too berserk, rolling and surging like a golden river.

Every impact would cause his face to contort in pain.

"Berserk Demon Art, I don't believe that I can't successfully cultivate it!" After several failed attempts at condensing his mind, he gritted his teeth and bit into the root of his tongue. Following the metallic smell of blood, it lingered in his mouth.

Enduring the pain, a trace of madness flashed across his eyes. He quickly concentrated his thoughts according to the mental cultivation method of the Fierce Demon.

"Wu Hao, if I am able to successfully cultivate this time around and do not die, I will definitely make you die without a burial ground!"

This was the thought that appeared in his mind before he successfully activated the Fierce Demon Tactics.

In another room, in the study.

Jiao Ruhua and the setting sun sat facing each other.

Jiao Ruhua stared at the setting sun for a long time before finally opening her mouth to ask, "Setting Sun, what do you think Soul Breaker's Organization will do after the failed assassination attempt of the crescent moon has failed?"

"In reply to Eldest Miss, if he failed the assassination and escaped back to the organization, the organization's upper echelons would immediately send an even higher assassin to carry out the assassination mission until he was killed. However, if he failed the assassination and died, the organization's upper echelons would have to spend at least three months to confirm the failure before sending the killer back to the organization to carry out the assassination mission. This way, the time will be a bit longer, at least half a year!"

"Half a year... That was too long! Given half a year's time, he will be able to grow. At that time, if he returns, the person who will be chosen to enter the Tianwu Gate will most likely be given to the small fry, because if that happens, it will be a foregone conclusion, and killing him will be even more difficult! "

"Then, Miss, what do you want to do?" he asked.

I know Hao Ran's way of handling things too well. Since he had sent out experts to protect the small fry in the dark, he would definitely not allow any threats to happen again. So, immediately think of a way to let me know, tell the Soul Breaker's Organization that the crescent moon assassins have failed and have died for a long time, and urge them to send stronger assassins to kill the small fry as soon as possible. I think that as the former noble assassin of the Soul Breaker's Organization, you still have some other ways to do this, right? "

After Jiao Ruhua finished speaking, she stared at intently.

When Sunset heard this, it was silent for a long time before it nodded its head at her, "Eldest Miss, this matter must be very troublesome. After all, I have already left the organization. However, I will do my best to help you accomplish this!"

"Alright, from today onwards, you don't have to follow me anymore. You can start handling this matter!" Jiao Ruhua nodded.
