Chapter 94: Price
"Fifty thousand?"
"Isn't it too little?" Yun Xui said with a sneer under his mask.
"Huh?"
When Tree Bears heard Yun Xui's words, the three bears looked at each other and one of them spoke. "I can't believe he's rich!"
"Since you think it's too little, let's just add one more on top of it with reluctance!" Xiong Da didn't mind the trouble at all.
Who is he? Although the Three Bears Mercenary Group only has three members, they are well-known figures in Shimo City.
Just a pretty boy.
So what if his identity is not simple?
In this Stone Desert City, even if he is a dragon, he has to coil up. Even if he is a tiger, he has to lie down.
Unless he doesn't want to leave alive.
Xiong Da once again stretched out his five fingers, but this time the price he asked was ten times more horrifying than before.
"Brother, since we are destined to meet, you can take this pet away for 500,000 gold coins."
"Five hundred thousand?"
Yun Xui still sneered and said, "Isn't it too little?"
"In my eyes, she is worth more than just 500,000 gold coins."
"Hahaha…"
The three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter. Xiong Da said, "Brother, it seems you are teasing us three brothers?"
Immediately, the three of them prepared to make Yun Xui understand that this was not his home.
Even if you want to act cool, you have to know the situation clearly.
This is not something a pretty boy like him can pretend to be.
"How?"
Yun Xui said in a disdainful tone, "Do you three want to take action?"
Xiong Da: "Brother, if you cooperate, we don't want to fight, but you want to play with us, so we three brothers can't blame you for that."
Xiong Er added, "Don't worry, brother. The three of us will be gentle and won't let you feel any pain."
"Hehe…"
Xiong San had a lewd smile on his face, and this smile easily evoked unsavory thoughts.
"How about this?"
As the three of them gradually approached Yun Xui, Yun Xui said calmly, "Five million gold coins, what do you think?"
"Hiss…"
The three men couldn't help but freeze slightly, then looked at each other and gasped.
Hearing Yun Xui speak so calmly, it was obvious that five million gold coins were nothing to him.
The three of them were originally ready to act, but upon hearing this, they couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Xiong Da laughed and said, "Since you are so sincere, we will reluctantly accept it."
"Five million gold coins, not a cent less."
He stretched out five fingers and said domineeringly, "If you're missing even one coin, and if you dare to play tricks on us, I will tell you...
You're done. Not only you, but the two girls with you are also done. Do you understand?"
Xiong Da said cruelly, and a knife appeared in his hand out of nowhere. He even performed a flourish with the knife.
"Don't worry. It's just five million gold coins; it's not a big deal at all," Yun Xui said calmly.
"That's good."
When Xiong Da heard this, he smiled slightly.
"Give it to me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to take it.
Yun Xui said coldly, without a trace of warmth in his tone, "Don't worry, five million gold coins is just a number. I will give it to you."
"Qing Lin, remember this—the day you become strong, no one will bully you anymore.
"They bully you not because you are different, but because you are weak. In this world, being weak is the greatest sin.
"So, what you need to do is to become stronger. Only when you become stronger will no one bully you."
Xiong Er said impatiently, "Boy, what nonsense are you talking about? Pay the money quickly."
Yun Xui said coldly, "Don't worry, I will burn it for you."
Xiong Da: "Damn…"
"Dare to play tricks on us?"
"Xiong Er, Xiong San, take care of him."
"Okay."
The three men held knives and wanted to show Yun Xui how powerful the Three Bears Mercenary Group was.
"Courting death."
Yun Xui said this coldly, and after he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers. Black flames appeared on the three of them.
"Ah…"
The three of them screamed before turning into ashes. When the wind blew, they became a grain of dust in the Tagor Desert.
When the black flames burned the three to ashes, they vanished into nothingness.
It only took a few seconds for the black flames to appear and the three men to disappear.
Many people were still in shock.
When everyone regained their senses, their gazes toward Yun Xui changed to one of fear—more awe than fear.
"Let's go."
Yun Xui didn't care about the looks around him. He held one child in each hand and left the street.
---
After finding an inn called Tongfu Inn, Yun Xui asked for two rooms and sent Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin to wash up.
Not long after, Xiao Yixian brought Qing Lin back. Qing Lin, now cleaned, had white and tender skin. Her little face was pink and delicate, like a porcelain doll.
"Mr… Mr…"
Qing Lin noticed Yun Xui's gaze and lowered her head, her cheeks flushed.
"Um."
Yun Xui nodded slightly and withdrew his gaze. He noticed that Qing Lin's clothes didn't fit her well; they were obviously too large.
Looking at Xiao Yixian, he raised an eyebrow.
Xiao Yixian quickly explained, "There are only my clothes in the ring. Sister Qing Lin's clothes are obviously unwearable."
"Oh, I was negligent."
Yun Xui nodded slightly.
"I was so focused on asking Qing Lin to bathe that I forgot to buy her clothes."
"Let's go," Yun Xui said calmly. "I'll take you to buy clothes."
"Good."
Xiao Yixian was delighted and quickly pulled Qing Lin to catch up with Yun Xui. Qing Lin, feeling warmth in her heart, followed without resistance.
After buying clothes for Qing Lin, they returned to the inn.
Yun Xui had an illusion.
Should he find a maid for himself? Or perhaps a "little ancestor"?
But thinking of their ages, Yun Xui shook his head.
If he wanted to be a young master, he'd have to wait at least two more years.
They were still too young.
But… it would be nice if they were a little bigger.
