Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 312 Liu Erlong Questions Life

"Have a meal?"

I don't think that's necessary.

Dai Chengfeng said calmly, "After all, I had an urgent matter to attend to that day and left Tiandou City directly, so I couldn't visit as promised."

"Therefore, Dean Liu has no reason to feel sorry."

"As for now..."

As Dai Chengfeng spoke, he shifted his gaze from Liu Erlong's face back to the top of the stairs, and made a step forward, saying, "I have something to do upstairs, let's have dinner next time."

Before he finished speaking, he had already turned halfway around.

This female Tyrannosaurus Rex is quite serious about her acting, trying to use this "chance encounter" plus "apology" to obscure the fact that she took the initiative to talk about a deal?
impossible!
Dai Chengfeng chuckled inwardly.

"next time?!"

These two words were like sparks, instantly igniting the nerves that Liu Erlong had been desperately suppressing, and the anger he had been trying to suppress suddenly surged up again.

That little rascal! Slippery! He definitely did it on purpose!
He definitely heard me clearly say "Let's talk about the Soul-Shaping Pill"! He's trying to force me to back down! How infuriating...

Liu Er felt that his carefully crafted script of "chance encounter" and "apology" was now like a clumsy joke in front of this little rascal!

but……

Watching Dai Chengfeng's figure about to disappear around the corner of the stairs, Liu Erlong still had to suppress all her resentment.

After all, the Soul Shaping Pill... was, in her opinion, the most likely thing that could help Yu Xiaogang break through to level 29 of soul power.

That was her greatest hope.

Therefore, she had no choice but to give in, even if she was furious.

"……and many more!"

Liu Erlong spoke again, his voice carrying a hint of barely perceptible urgency, and his volume was even unconsciously raised by half a notch compared to usual.

The curious glances from a few scattered tables of customers drifted over, making her even more annoyed, but she couldn't care less.

Upon hearing this, Dai Chengfeng paused slightly.

He didn't turn around immediately, but stopped on the steps, as if weighing his options.

A few breaths later, he slowly turned around, still with that condescending posture, his face showing no smugness, only a calm and undisturbed expression.

He strolled back to the lobby, but instead of going to Liu Erlong's table, he stood a few steps away, his gaze fixed on her face.

"Since Dean Liu has summoned me," Dai Chengfeng began, "there must be something important on your mind?"

"But I have limited time, so let's get straight to the point."

The feeling of losing control left Liu Erlong extremely resentful.

But in the end, she took a deep breath, forcing herself to ignore Dai Chengfeng's irritating indifference, and straightened her back.

She understands...

Now that things have come to this, any further attempt to cover it up would only make us a laughingstock.

“Dai Chengfeng,” Liu Erlong cut straight to the point without any preamble, “you should understand what my ultimate purpose is in coming here.”

Liu Erlong looked directly into Dai Chengfeng's eyes. Despite her inner unease, her gaze was exceptionally firm. "You understand, I am determined to obtain the Soul-Shaping Pill."

"All I want to know now is, what exactly do you want me to give up in exchange for a Soul Shaping Pill?"

Dai Chengfeng raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly a little surprised by Liu Erlong's sudden "frankness," but he didn't reply, only silently signaling with his eyes:
You need to show your sincerity.

Seeing this, Liu Erlong nodded, no longer hesitating, and began to state the chips he had prepared beforehand:
"Although my Blue Tyrant Academy cannot compare to the prestigious sects, we still possess several soul tools in our collection, including a high-grade defensive armor with extremely strong protective capabilities..." "We also have an agility-type left leg soul bone that is over 20,000 years old, with pure attributes..."

"In addition, there is an extremely old ambergris in the academy's herb garden, which can strengthen bones and muscles and nourish the meridians..."

Liu Erlong spoke slowly, trying to clearly state the value of each item he offered.

These are all the most treasured possessions of Blue Tyrant Academy, the wealth she has painstakingly accumulated over many years.

In a normal transaction, this would be enough to move the other party.

But now, as she spoke, she kept a close eye on Dai Chengfeng's expression.

Dai Chengfeng listened quietly the whole time, his face showing no emotion.

Just as Liu Erlong finished speaking and was expecting a response from Dai Chengfeng, Dai Chengfeng frowned instead.

“Dean Liu,” Dai Chengfeng finally spoke, his voice low and tinged with skepticism, “you should know who I am, shouldn’t you?”

"After all this time, and you know my name, I don't believe you haven't investigated me."

Looking at Dai Chengfeng's furrowed brows, Liu Erlong felt increasingly uneasy. At the same time, she nodded, "I know you, Your Highness Dai Chengfeng, the fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire, a disciple of Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, and you have two older brothers..."

Dai Chengfeng nodded slightly. "Dean Liu, since you know my identity..."

At this point, Dai Chengfeng paused deliberately, his sharp gaze locking onto Liu Erlong's beautiful, slightly uneasy eyes, "You should have understood..."

"As the fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire and a disciple of Pope Bibi Dong, would I lack these ordinary things you speak of?"

"These……"

Dai Chengfeng's gaze swept over the list Liu Erlong presented. Although he did not utter the word "garbage," his slight head-shaking gesture and the undisguised slight 'anger' in his tone caused by the inequality clearly conveyed the message.

After all, although Dai Chengfeng planned to use the Soul Shaping Pill to get his hands on Yu Xiaogang, it is absolutely true that the rarer something is, the more precious it is.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to exchange these ordinary things with Liu Erlong.

At this moment, Dai Chengfeng leaned forward slightly, and the invisible pressure suddenly intensified: "It seems that Dean Liu's so-called 'sincerity' still treats me as..."

"Someone who can be easily fooled?"

"In that case, I think we should call off this deal."

Having said that, Dai Chengfeng shook his head in disappointment, turned around, and started walking towards the stairs again! This time, he turned around even faster!

Liu Erlong's heart sank. Dai Chengfeng's reaction was exactly what she had expected, but when she actually faced him, the "just as expected" dissatisfaction still made her feel annoyed.

That little bastard Dai Chengfeng is trying to force me to reveal my trump card!
How old is he? How can he be so hard to fool?
For a moment, Liu Erlong was so shocked by Dai Chengfeng's words that she began to doubt her own existence.

She felt that she was not facing a passionate young man, but a meticulous and wise man.

Hey!
Liu Erlong sighed inwardly, "It seems I really have to bring out my trump card."

Thinking it over, Liu Erlong shook his head and spoke again.

"and many more!!!"

Dai Chengfeng stopped for the third time, but this time he did not turn around immediately, leaving Liu Erlong with only a tall and indifferent back view.

“Your Highness Dai Chengfeng, I have one last backup plan. I guarantee you will be absolutely satisfied. I wonder if Your Highness could give me another chance?”

"Tell me."

Dai Chengfeng didn't really want to cancel the deal; he was just waiting to see what Liu Erlong had to offer. He didn't believe that the ordinary items Liu Erlong had mentioned earlier were part of her plan.

Therefore, having achieved his goal, Dai Chengfeng naturally would not leave.
