The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2853 Three months to gather the funds, or die!
The black staff knocked away Su Hao and Dai Yunshen's natal magic weapons, then fell heavily back down, landing on the light of those protective magical treasures.

"boom!"

The enormous impact shook the entire space, as if the entire misty world had experienced a comet collision, with dust and smoke rising everywhere, as if the whole world had been shattered.

The protective magical artifacts dimmed instantly, and even the outermost surface of the artifacts showed fine cracks. However, even so, they still withstood the attack from the black stick.

The black staff flew up again and hovered in front of the man in black robes.

The man in black robes did not continue his attack, but calmly asked, "Was that enough?"

Su Hao and Dai Yunshen were both deathly pale, their faces filled with undisguised shock.

The opponent is too strong!

This kind of person is definitely not an unknown individual. How could he do something like kidnapping and extortion? What was he thinking?

Taking a deep breath, Su Hao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up, and replied, "That's enough proof. What materials do you want? Why don't you tell me first?"

The man in black robes was clearly prepared; with a flick of his wrist, a list flew out and landed in front of Su Hao.

"That's all the stuff. You two can divide it up. Once you've gathered all of these things, and you help me craft a few gadgets, you can leave safely."

Su Hao unfolded the list, and Dai Yunshen also came over, glanced at it, and frowned slightly.

To be honest, the black-robed man didn't need a lot of materials in total, and some of them weren't even that valuable. However, there were some rare and valuable items among them.

If an individual were to collect these materials, it would take an unknown amount of time. However, given the resources of the Star River Sect and the Heavenly Fire Sect, gathering them would not be difficult. Of course, this might also be the reason why the man in black robes set his sights on the two of them.

After reading it, Su Hao looked up and said, "Although it's quite valuable, our two sects can definitely raise the funds. However, there are some materials that we probably don't have in our sect, and it will take some time to collect them..."

The man in black robes nodded and said, "Three months. I'm only giving you three months. If you gather everything within three months, you can live. If it exceeds three months, then I'm sorry, I'll have no choice but to kill you."

Three months?
Su Hao and Dai Yunshen exchanged a glance and nodded slightly. Although this place was far from the two sects, the distance could be greatly reduced using the teleportation array, and there was plenty of time.

Su Hao wasn't telling the truth. It wouldn't take three months to collect all the materials. He said that on purpose to buy himself more time.

Whether it's for myself or the sect, let's see if we can find a way to escape this place during this time. If not, then we'll really have no choice but to try to buy our lives back by spending money.

The man in black robes nodded: "You two discuss it, divide the list, record a video, and give out the token. I will send someone to your sect to retrieve it. I advise you not to play any tricks, otherwise, no matter what the outcome, you will definitely not survive, after all, you can't withstand the second blow."

Su Hao replied, "Your skill is superb, we admit defeat. These materials are indeed precious, but our two sects can afford to give them to you. We just hope you will keep your word."

The man in black robes said calmly, "I don't know you guys before. I'm only looking for you this time because of the materials. Once I have the materials and you help me refine what I need, I'll leave immediately. After all, your lives are of no value to me."

Su Hao pressed further, "Why don't you make a vow?"

The man in black robes' voice turned colder: "Your lives are in my hands. Don't force me to kill you now."

Seeing that he couldn't get the other party to swear an oath, Su Hao had no choice but to agree, "Alright, let's divide it up first."

Su Hao and Dai Yunshen rummaged through the list for a while, exchanged ideas privately, and then divided the list into two parts.

It would be difficult to gather all these materials if only one party provided them, but if the two parties discussed it together, they were able to gather almost all of them. Even if there were still some missing materials, they would definitely be able to gather enough in time.

The two prepared lists were handed to the man in black robes. The two men also recorded a video and had the materials prepared quickly and handed to the person holding the token. With the man in black robes watching, the two men did not dare to play any tricks.

The man in black robes watched him like a ghost. He wasn't worried about the other party revealing that he was trapped, as long as the other party didn't reveal his location.

Moreover, now that he has given them hope of survival, they may not dare to take the risk. Even if someone comes to rescue them, he can kill them first and then retreat calmly. They couldn't possibly not know this principle after already being hit by a stick.

The man in black robes packed away all his belongings and calmly said, "You can stay here peacefully and don't try anything funny, or I'll kill you first."
