Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 171 Hai Bodong:?

The girl's words echoed in the secret room, forming a faint echo that quickly disappeared without a trace.

The dark secret room suddenly fell into dead silence.

Not long after, Hai Bodong's eagle-like nose twitched a few times, and he breathed in the damp smell mixed with the fragrance of medicinal herbs in the small space.

call.
The medicinal materials are fine, he shouldn't have been poisoned.

The wrinkles on his withered old face seemed to be twisted together. Hai Bodong resisted the urge to slap himself in the face and said with a wry smile, "Little girl, it was indeed my fault for concealing something earlier, but there are indeed only two copies of this incomplete map. I did not lie."

Obviously, Hai Bodong did not believe what Hun Ruoruo said, and thought that the other party was still taking the opportunity to test him.

In fact, it’s no wonder he thinks this way—

At such a young age, she is already a Dou Wang-level warrior. This kind of peerless genius has never even been heard of in the Northwest Territory. Even in the Central Plains, which is known for its gathering of geniuses, how many forces would dare to let a person like her serve others?

What a joke.
"What do you mean, Mr. Hai? Hasn't our deal been reached?" Upon hearing this, Hun Ruoruo looked at the old man in front of her in surprise, and then said seriously.

Seeing the girl's genuine expression, Hai Bodong couldn't help but feel a little uneasy for a moment. After hesitating for a while, he finally couldn't suppress his inner anxiety and asked tentatively, "Is the young master you mentioned really an alchemist who possesses strange fire?"

"Of course. Calculating the time, the young master might arrive in Mocheng soon. Mr. Hai must make preparations in advance."

Hun Ruoruo held her chin, looking thoughtful: "He's not as easy to talk to as I am. If you keep beating around the bush with him like you are now, he might just snatch your map away."

"hiss--"

After hearing what the other party said, Hai Bodong couldn't help but take a breath, and a look of shock finally appeared on his face.

It seems that such a person really exists!

Since she calls him "Young Master", the age difference between them must be pretty close, right?
The process of refining a sixth-grade elixir requires at least the powerful Dou Qi of the Dou Wang level to be able to bear it. In other words, this person is not only a strong man above the Dou Wang level, but also a sixth-grade alchemist, and even possesses a rare exotic fire in the world!
"Oh my God, which force did these freaks come from? Why are they more terrifying than each other? When will the Gama Empire attract these people?" Hai Bodong groaned in disbelief, his face filled with astonishment. He was so shocked that he was speechless.

Seeing Hai Bodong's silence, Hun Ruoruo seemed to feel that it was not convincing enough, and described Xiao Yan's appearance and outfit vividly again, until the surprise on Hai Bodong's face gradually turned into disbelief, and finally numbness.
Carefully interrupting Hun Ruoruo's words, Hai Bodong's face twitched, and he said with a forced smile, "Little girl, there's no need to explain any more. It was I, an old man, who was a little ignorant and misunderstood. Uh, considering your young master's strength, since the deal has been reached, you should wait for his arrival in Mo City, right?"

"If you can't find a suitable place to stay, I do have connections with quite a few hotel owners."

"That won't do. The young master loves to play dumb and hide his true strength. If I were to expose him rashly, who knows how he'd punish me. Mr. Hai, please don't tell him I've been here. Just think of me as a go-between—"

"But if you're not here, how can I be sure that the person I meet is your young master?" Hun Ruoruo rolled her eyes and said seriously, "Don't worry, if you see someone who looks similar, go up and chat with him. If he keeps touching his nose and smiling bitterly, or scratching his head from time to time, then it must be the young master!"

"This..." Hai Bodong was a little confused, and for a moment he couldn't keep up with the girl's jumping thoughts.

Smiling at Hai Bodong's wonderful expression, Hun Ruoruo lightly placed the incomplete map in her little hand back on the table, and then took out a small jade bottle and placed it next to it.

Hun Ruoruo smiled even brighter: "Okay, the deal is done, I won't stay for long. Mr. Hai, please don't forget this favor of helping me with this matchmaking."

After saying that, she waved her hand and walked towards the outside of the secret room. Her figure gradually disappeared into nothingness like a ghost.
"Also, remember to keep it a secret. If the young master finds out, I'll be very angry—"

Looking at the figure that seemed to be merging into the shadows, Hai Bodong opened his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, it just turned into a sigh that made him laugh and cry.

"This little girl, it's like she just came over and said a few words, and she took my favor for nothing?"

Although he was somewhat dissatisfied, Hai Bodong understood that he had no choice at all.

The other party could easily take away the incomplete map, and even noticed the secret that the incomplete map was split into two by him. If she had not been willing to give him a chance for a fair trade, he probably would not have gotten anything.

Thinking of this, Hai Bodong rubbed his swollen temples. The resentment and frustration caused by the decline in strength made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Humph, she's still just a yellow-haired girl after all. It's not that easy to force a Douhuang strongman to surrender with such coercive tactics, huh?"

Hai Bodong glanced at the remaining picture on the table, and when he noticed the small jade bottle beside it, his eyes suddenly froze.

The next day, Mocheng.

Xiao Yan, who had set his own future goals with Xiao Yixian, finally arrived at the last place of training after the three-year agreement, the Tagor Desert.

Through the experience accumulated from the many medicinal herbs in the small valley, Xiao Yan has successfully refined a third-grade pill, and on the way to the desert, he obtained the corresponding alchemist medal.

Under the guidance of Yao Lao, Xiao Yan, who had always been reluctant to be too high-profile, put on the alchemist's robe for a rare occasion and enjoyed the noble privileges belonging to the alchemist. The originally complicated and tedious process of entering the city was easily passed without wasting any of his time.

Admiring the alchemist's transcendent status, Xiao Yan glanced at the busy streets and asked impatiently, "Teacher, where should we go now? Should we go directly to the interior of the Tagor Desert?"

"There are almost no reference points in this desert. If you really rush into the desert as you have a reckless idea, even if you don't get lost, you will probably die of thirst due to lack of water." Yao Lao's teasing voice came from the ring.
"Come to think of it, this seems to be your last place of cultivation. You've come here with so much hardship, but if something goes wrong, you won't be able to see the girl again—"
