"Do you really have the guts to go and fight the Iron Buddha? Directly fighting against the Iron Pagoda? "

"Of course, Your Highness. As an old friend, I have some heartfelt words to say to Your Highness. If I defeat the Iron Buddha, you can go back and explain it to me, and I will exempt you from punishment."

Clenching his teeth and continuing to grit his teeth, Duan Zhan Chen felt as though he was about to go insane. He was only angry because of this brat.

"Helian Qingyu, you are a madman. If you dare to fight head on with the Iron Buddha, regardless of victory or defeat, this prince will send you five hundred of the best horses in the future."

"When will it be in the future? One year or ten years? "

"Helian Qingyu!"

Everyone felt chills run down their spines. They looked with pitying gazes at the furious Fifth Prince who was mounted on the horse, and who was occasionally shouting out Helian Qingyu's name in rage.

"I have to ask, who knows if you will drag it on for a few years, I am waiting for it."

Helian Manqiu said without the slightest bit of understanding.

Duan Zhan Chen dejectedly used his hands to tightly grip the saddle, gritting his teeth as he said word by word, "If you ever manage to return to the Army Continent, within ten days, I will definitely send five hundred horses over to you."

"One thousand of the best horses and five thousand Jin of fine iron."

"You, Helian Qingyu, don't even think about it!"

This roar came from far away and echoed in the night sky for a long time. The inferior and inferior people all lowered their heads, their prince, could you be a bit more reserved?

Looking at the smiling and relaxed young man in front of them, they all felt a deep sense of defeat. The young man had only used a few words, yet his words had angered their Imperial Highness like thunder.

Their young general was really shameless. He didn't know what he had said to make the valiant and invincible Fifth Prince angry, but he could do nothing about it.

"Four thousand jin is more than enough. Duan Zhanchen, you are the 5th prince of the Awakening Realm. If you are too petty, I will look down on you."

Helian Manqiu said earnestly.

"Don't even think about it, don't even think about it …"

"Is that so?"

Helian Manqiu rested her cheek on her hand as she tilted her head to look at Duan Zhan Chen. Her clear and innocent eyes continued to clash with him.

"Helian Qingyu, let this prince see what kind of shameful appearance you have."

Suddenly, Duan Zhan Chen stared curiously at Helian Manqiu's bronze mask. He really wanted to see what she looked like.

"What are the benefits?"

These words caused Duan Zhan Chen's body to sway again. He almost fell off his horse.

"Helian Qingyu, can you be any more shameless?"

"Yes!"

This answer rendered Duan Zhan Chen speechless, he suddenly felt powerless from the bottom of his heart. Only now did he realize that this young general's wise martial prowess was akin to a god using troops. He was an unparalleled genius with an unscrupulous background.

"Five hundred war horses and five hundred jins of fine iron, don't even think about getting more than one jin. Moreover, this prince wants you to use five hundred stone worth of grain to exchange for it!"

"I will trade 10,000 buckets of food for 4000 jins of refined iron."

"You, have ten thousand dollars worth of grain?"

"If you have four thousand pounds of Refined Iron, then I have ten thousand buckets of food."

"Don't even think about it!"

Duan Zhan Chen stared coldly at Helian Manqiu and said, "A stone of food for a jin of fine iron is already a huge advantage for you. It is equivalent to this prince giving it to you for free. Don't be greedy."

"Your Highness, don't be too greedy. The two of us can only mutually benefit each other."

"One grain for one kilogram of fine iron. I don't know how many people are willing to kneel at my feet, begging me to give it to them."

"How many people do you think would dare to use grain to exchange for food in the Great Hengkong Empire?"

Food was something that the Great Hengkong Empire had never allowed to flow into the northern borders. If anyone were to enter the northern borders while selling food and weapons, they would all be punished with the crime of betraying the nation, and their entire families would be executed!

Therefore, although a stone's worth of grain could be exchanged for a jin of fine iron, the problem was that no one would dare to use a large amount of grain to exchange with them.

"This prince does not have four thousand kilograms of refined iron. Do you think refined iron is a stone or something?"

Duan Zhan Chen frantically shouted in a low voice. While food was a necessity, it was impossible for him to use refined iron to exchange for food. He didn't have the ability to get that much Refined Iron.

"How much can you get?"

"At most, one thousand catties, not even one catty!"

"Alright, I will use three thousand buckets of food to exchange for one thousand Jin of fine iron."

"Don't even think about it! Helian Qingyu, come here and let me see how big your face is! "

She suddenly took off her bronze mask, and her pair of bright, starry eyes continuously flashed towards Duan Zhan Chen. Her enchanting smile was raised high on her lips as she said, "Your Highness, it is a promise. I will exchange three thousand buckets of food for a thousand kilograms of fine iron and a thousand of the best stallions."

Stunned, still dazed, Duan Zhan Chen was unable to clearly hear what Helian Manqiu was saying. He only saw his lips, which were as beautiful as the blossoming of a mulberry flower, faintly move like the petals of a flower blooming in the wind. Seeing his smile, a pair of eyes that were like spring water flickered.

He couldn't help but slightly nod his head. Just now, Helian Manqiu had purposely raised her voice and said those words.

"Your Highness, you mustn't! Absolutely not!"

Some of the spectators involuntarily shouted out when they saw Duan Zhanchen nodding his head. Hearing the loud shout coming from behind them, Duan Zhanchen suddenly regained his senses and glared at Helian Manqiu.

Helian Manqiu slowly covered her peerlessly handsome face with the bronze mask. "In that case, I will have to thank Your Highness. I will give you five buckets of food in exchange for one Jin of fine iron. If Your Highness is interested in the future, you might as well come and find me."

"Helian Qingyu!"

Duan Zhan Chen grabbed towards Helian Manqiu, who was already prepared. She threw the crossbow bolt in her hand towards Duan Zhan Chen, urging the horse to pull away from him.

Grabbing the crossbow with one hand, Duan Zhanchen's face was gloomy and he was unable to control his anger. His eyes, however, were constantly shaking as he stared into Helian Man's bright eyes.

"Duan Zhanchen, this general's words are as good as gold. Now, let my men walk right past you. I'll let you see for yourself how many people there are, so that you won't act like a despicable person."

Helian Manqiu said with a smile as she raised her hand. Her troops had gathered together and were flying over in an orderly manner. Helian Manqiu waved her hand towards Duan Zhan Chen and said, "I'll have to trouble Your Highness then. In the ten days after this general returns to the Army Region, send everything to this general. I'll thank you for this first."

Clasping his hands together, he left a bewitching smile on Duan Zhan Chen's face as he turned around and led his less than five thousand men towards the darkness.

"Helian Qingyu, I've sent this person to guide you!"

He chased up to Helian Manqiu, who nodded her head and cupped her fist behind her. "Thank you, Your Highness, for personally sending me off. In the future, I will repay your kindness and kindness."

He was afraid that if he stayed behind any longer and heard what the boy said, he would not be able to hold back and lead his men to charge over. Regardless of what the bet or the promise was, he would have to capture the boy first.

"Your Highness, are we just going to let them go like this?"

The commander who was the first to shoot a cold arrow at Helian Manqiu watched unwillingly as she led her team into the distance, "Your Highness, they only have a maximum of five thousand men. They can't afford to forbid us from rushing in for a round of slaughter. If His Highness goes back like this, I'm afraid the King will punish him. "

"Take a look, this prince wants to see if Helian Qingyu has the courage to face Iron Pagoda head-on. Someone, pass a message to Iron Pagoda, just say this: This prince has already sent someone to lead Helian Qingyu there, let them be on their guard."

"Yes."

Someone replied, and the flying horse went to report.

"Your Highness, didn't the Iron Pagoda take away all the credit?"

"Not necessarily!"

Duan Zhan Chen looked back at Helian Manqiu, who had disappeared into the darkness, and said, "This prince has a feeling that the Iron Pagoda cannot stay in Helian Qing Yu, and he will definitely go to Mo Gan City to save those people. Someone come, send a message to royal father and His Highness, request that royal father and His Highness send someone to set up an ambush and eliminate them in one fell swoop! "

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Someone released the eagle as he relayed the news. Duan Zhan Chen lowered his head in contemplation as the image of that peerlessly beautiful young man appeared in his mind.

He didn't want to see him so absent-minded that he agreed to that kid's conditions by nodding his head out of nowhere and traded one thousand Jin of refined iron for three thousand pieces of grain.

He had lost a lot of money in this business. How would he explain it to his father and the Crown Prince when he returned?

He could only hope that the weapon in his hand would be able to master Helian Qingyu's military strength. He could ask the Crown Prince to plead for mercy in front of his father and forgive him this time. He only hoped that this time, the unparalleled handsome youth would be able to escape from the Iron Pagoda's grasp, and even cause great damage to the Iron Buddha, so he had nothing to say.

Helpless, Duan Zhan Chen smiled bitterly. How could he have such thoughts? In his heart, he actually hoped that he would be able to escape being hunted down by the Iron Pagoda, or even get severely injured by it.

He sighed and clenched his fists. The next time he saw that brat, he would not listen to a word he said. First, he would take that brat down and cover his mouth, then he would capture him and hand him over to his father and his highness, the Crown Prince.

Suddenly, Duan Zhan Chen's body swayed a few times before he fell flat on his stomach. Helian Manqiu's sleeve arrows were poisonous!

"Young General, I am here on the orders of my Prince to lead the way."

Helian Manqiu indifferently looked at the man sent by Duan Zhan Chen. "Where is the Iron Buddha concealed?"

This allowed Yu to look coldly at Helian Manqiu as he secretly calculated in his heart. This young general had asked him so clearly and clearly where the Iron Pagoda was. Was he really going to meet it?

He looked at Helian Manqiu with doubt in his eyes. "I heard that Young General is going to fight the Iron Buddha, are you trying to escape with empty words?"

"Today, you can see that the Iron Buddha is actually nothing. It's just that this general was too lazy to bother with them. Tonight, this general will let you know that in this general's eyes, the Iron Pagoda is extremely laughable. "

That would cause anyone to be filled with resentment as he coldly said, "You Central Plains people have always been crafty. I won't fall for your trick."
