Chapter 285: Making a Fortune and Seeking the Skin of a Tiger

"What the hell are you?" Ralph looked at the monk in front of him with horror. He couldn't bear such a horrible injury, and his body began to disintegrate.

"Amitabha."

The old monk bowed and said calmly, "I am just a monk sweeping the floor. It's not worth mentioning."

"I..." Ralph opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

But some kind of energy was detonated, and his body exploded directly, leaving only a spiritual force stored in it, entangled with blood-colored runes, trying to retreat quickly. But the old monk lowered his head and chanted a spell, and a golden circle of light appeared behind his head.

Like snow under the scorching sun, the blood-colored runes evaporated inch by inch, and this spiritual power was also destroyed and disappeared out of thin air.

An angry roar faintly echoed in the air.

……

……

……

boom!
Eternal Heaven, Blood Realm.

In the vast wilderness, in Ralph's castle.

The ancient blood pool in the garden began to boil again, bubbling.

Bloody smoke rolled up. The originally full blood pool was drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than a moment, most of the blood accumulated in the blood pool had disappeared into thin air, and finally it exploded with a loud bang, and the entire castle was shaking back and forth.

Ralph emerged from the pool of blood with a livid face and naked upper body. He exuded a visibly weak aura.

It was obvious that he had just crossed the line and was seriously injured by a punch from the old monk in the Hundred Buddha Temple.

Even with the help of the blood pool, he has not yet fully recovered.

boom!
Just when anger was building up in his heart.

The garden gate was pushed open, and two blood-letting vampires with red bodies heard the noise and walked in from outside.

The two vampires were extremely surprised to see Ralph emerge from the pool of blood.

The first vampire was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly flattered him, "Your Excellency has returned from the human world so quickly, I believe that everything must be going well, and you will soon be the king of the world."

The other vampire was not willing to be outdone and quickly flattered, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

The two vampires complimented him repeatedly, but received no response.

Be brave and raise your head.

Seeing their master, the Blood Sacrifice Demon God Ralph, their faces turned livid, as if they were ready to eat people. As high-level demons in the blood world, the IQ of these two vampires is not inferior to that of normal people. At this time, they knew that their flattery just now had hit the horse's hoof directly.

"Sir... I, I just now..." The first bloodletter trembled, but could not utter a complete sentence.

On the contrary, the anger on Ralph's face faded a little, and he comforted her, "It's okay, just be more careful in your next life."

puff!

Screams and sounds of flesh being torn came from the garden.

"Huh!" After a moment, a long sigh was heard.

Ralph, covered in blood, had a look of relief on his face. Tearing the two idiots into pieces had vented a lot of his anger. Now, he could finally think about the current situation. Su Heng, Meng Huan, and the old monk from the Hundred Buddha Temple whom he met in Jiangbeizhou before.

"It seems that the world on the other side is not the wild and desolate place I originally imagined." Ralph paced back and forth in his garden, stepping on the remains of two vampires.

"We have to find someone to cooperate with us." He casually crushed a rotten human head that was used as decoration in the garden.

A ferocious figure that shook the earth and roared eternally slowly appeared in Ralph's mind.

……

……

……

Jiangzhou, Baihua County.

In the Demon Suppression Tower, Su Heng took a scroll from Li Hongxiu and opened it. It was more than two meters long and filled with various cultivation supplies. He quickly glanced at it, ticked the supplies he needed, and then put the scroll away again.

"Send this secret letter to Meng Huan of the Sword Sect." Su Heng looked at the sunlight outside the window and said to Li Hongxiu.

"I understand," the latter nodded obediently.

"There is another matter." Li Hongxiu added, "Shang Mengting, the head of the Shang family, wants to meet with you."

"She is now waiting outside the Demon Suppression Tower." Li Hongxiu thought for a moment and added, "She has been waiting for a while."

"Shang Mengting." Su Heng thought about it and had some impression in his mind.

I met him once in the Swallow Tower that day, and he was accompanied by a master of the Earthly Immortal Realm. Although there was no conflict, since the other party had already planned to evacuate from Jiang-E, what was he thinking about coming to see me now?
"Then let's meet." Su Heng considered for a moment and nodded.

It would take some time for the first batch of supplies to be delivered. In the past few days, apart from reading classics and accumulating some knowledge about the Earthly Immortal Realm, Su Heng didn't have much to do.

Li Hongxiu said, "Okay!"

She held the scroll that Su Heng had just given her, opened the door, and left gracefully.

...In the reception hall of the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

With a smile on her face, she was wearing a light white short-sleeved top and a light green pleated skirt, revealing her fair arms. The owner of the business, who had a calm and gentle temperament, slowly put down the teacup in her hand.

The afternoon sun shone through the window and fell on her, and she seemed to radiate a soft glow.

Click!

The door was pushed open and a strong figure over three meters tall walked in from outside.

"Miss Shang, the master has agreed to see you." The young dragon guard said calmly, "I will lead the way."

"Thank you." Shang Mengting slowly stood up and nodded to the young dragon guard.

But when she stood up to salute, the young dragon guard had already turned around, leaving her with only a broad and strong back. Shang Mengting's eyes flashed with a strange color, but she didn't say much, hiding her emotions very well, lowering her head and following behind the dragon guard.

As she walked, Shang Mengting recalled a previous conversation she had with an elderly person at home.

……

"I'm sorry, Miss Shang." Elder Gong of Liuyun Mountain said, "I'm afraid I can't help you this time. I won't accept rewards without merit. I will return the resources I promised to give you before."

"Since things have developed to this point, I don't recommend any further contact." said the white-haired Shang Qingqiu.

“But the resources accumulated by our ancestors…” Shang Mengting clenched her fists, her tone full of unwillingness.

"You can take it, but you also have to learn to let it go." Shang Qingqiu consoled him, "As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."

"No, I don't want to end like this." Shang Mengting said firmly.

As members of the younger generation, Li Lingxiu and Qin Shunying were the direct descendants. But Shang Qingqiu was already the helmsman of the big family, holding great power. Although her cultivation was not the strongest among the younger generation, her unique identity made her character quite arrogant.

There is even a hint of looking down upon people of the same age.

What happened suddenly at this meeting was undoubtedly a huge blow to her.

"Although the resources left by the family are gone, the channels and connections are still there." Shang Mengting looked at the elders in the family, with an inexplicable light flashing in her eyes. "Once the myth battlefield is opened, a large amount of resources will inevitably be produced. The flesh and blood of demons, no matter where they are, are hard currency."

"It is unrealistic to completely take over the entire Mythology Battlefield with only the remaining forces in the Jiang-E area. We need to obtain resources from the outside world."

"Perhaps... our family can serve as this channel." Shang Mengting said, "At that time, no matter what the specific situation on the battlefield is, victory or defeat. We can take the opportunity to make a fortune, accumulate a lot of resources, and even have a chance to regain our former glory."

"This..." Shang Qingqiu showed hesitation on his face, "I still don't agree with this idea. Trying to take advantage of that person is crazier than trying to get the skin of a tiger."

"Maybe it's worth a try." Another supreme elder decided.

……

"Huh!" Shang Mengting breathed a sigh of relief.

boom!
Consciousness returns from thoughts.

The young dragon guard stopped and pointed to the corridor in front of him, "The last room in the corridor is the master's office."

"Thank you!" Shang Mengting nodded to Long Wei with her signature smile on her face.

She continued forward and walked into the corridor ahead.

The light in the corridor was dim, and there were no oil lamps on either side. The only light source came from an open window at the end of the corridor.

Click!

A slight noise came from the side.

A door near the outer hall opened, and a tall and fit young woman walked out. She was wearing a white long skirt with a golden ribbon tied around her waist. Her long, soft black hair flowed down her back like clouds and mist. Her facial features were three-dimensional, like a sculpture, full of heroic spirit.

"Qin Shunying..." Shang Mengting muttered to herself in a low voice, with a look of surprise on her face.

Why did she appear here? Shang Mengting's eyes trembled slightly. After a little thought, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"This dress is really beautiful." Shang Mengting smiled, "It's rare to see Sister without armor."

Qin Shunying could hear the hidden meaning in the other party's words, but she didn't care.

She just smiled, as if she had a premonition of something, "Dusi is in the innermost room."

"Thank you!" Shang Mengting didn't think much about it. The two of them passed by sideways and continued forward. Soon they came to the end of the corridor and reached out to touch the door gently.

There is a mechanism inside that opens automatically. Bright sunlight shines out, and she steps into the room. A burly figure with long hair is standing in front of the bright and huge French window, with his legs slightly apart, leaving only a sturdy back view to her.

As if hearing some noise outside, Su Heng turned around and his eyes fell lightly on Shang Mengting.

Although she had prepared in advance, Shang Mengting still felt a huge pressure from Su Heng the moment their eyes met.

It's like a soft and weak little white rabbit encounters a prehistoric Tyrannosaurus Rex in the lush primeval forest.

Fortunately, Su Heng knew that his spiritual power was growing day by day and it was difficult to control it.

Therefore, his eyes did not linger on Shang Mengting for long.

"This shouldn't be the first time we meet, Miss Shang." Su Heng coughed and said calmly, "Our last discussion was not very pleasant. I hope this meeting can bring me some useful information."

"As you wish, sir." Shang Mengting took a deep breath and lowered her head.
