Supreme Demon God

Chapter 44: Make a Deal

"Young Master Wuji, if I may take the liberty to ask, what is the flame that wiped out the Coffin Locusts just now...?" Su Qianqian asked curiously.

"A secret technique." Mo Xiu replied casually.

Normal flames naturally could not destroy those Coffin Locusts, but what he just shot was not a normal flame, but a True Fire Secret Art.

The flame condensed by this True Fire Secret Art was also simply called True Fire, which was stronger than Pill Fire and fiercer. Not to mention the mere locusts, even the human body could be burned to ash instantly.

Su Qianqian was very interested in Mo Xiu's True Fire, but she was not familiar with Mo Xiu after all, so it was difficult to ask the end.

"Miss." A young man in black ran over.

Su Qianqian turned her gaze to the man and asked, "What's the situation?"

"Very bad, the spiritual plants we are escorting this time has been eroded by the locusts, and the other goods are relatively better." The black man replied solemnly.

After Su Qianqian heard him, she took a deep breath, "I have to bear a lot of responsibility for this incident, but it has already happened, so it doesn't make any sense to investigate these things. You should be familiar with the situation around here. What is the production situation of the spiritual medicines and spiritual plants in Azure Prefecture? How about the output of the spiritual plants? Is it possible to buy it locally? It doesn't matter if the price is more expensive, the important thing is that the reputation of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce cannot be lost."

"I'm afraid not."

The black-clothed man shook his head slightly, "In the past, there was a Dark Mist Mountain in here, which was very rich in spiritual plants. It was not difficult to buy a batch, but then Dark Mist Mountain became a Ghost Mountain, and the herbs in the mountain were contaminated. Spiritual medicine has also become extremely scarce. Also, we must deliver within three days, which cannot be done anyway."

"..."

Su Qian frowned slightly, sinking into thought.

At this moment, Mo Xiu said, "Can you take me to see what kind of spiritual plants you lost?"

The man in black looked at Mo Xiu, then at Su Qianqian, hesitating.

Su Qianqian didn't take it seriously, and nodded and said, "Young Master Wuji is our lifesaver. It doesn't matter if you take him to see."

"Yes."

The man in black took Mo Xiu to check.

Coffin Locusts eroded the spiritual plants, of course, not eating the whole spiritual plants into the stomach, but eroding the essence and spiritual energy contained in the spiritual plants, turning the spiritual plants into a weed without spirituality.

In fact, Mo Xiu had already probed the spiritual plants in the carriage with his Divine Consciousness, but he didn't want to cause suspicion, so he asked to check it out.

After checking, Mo Xiu returned to Su Qianqian and said, "Let's make a deal, what do you think?"

"Huh?" Su Qianqian frowned slightly, she didn't understand what Mo Xiu meant.

Mo Xiu: "I can help you get a batch of spiritual plants in a short time. As a deal, you have to take me to Yan Capital and arrange a suitable identity for me."

"Help you arrange a suitable identity?" Su Qianqian was stunned, her eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but look more at Mo Xiu.

After a long silence, she tentatively said, "If this is the case, can I invite Young Master Wuji to join our Rainbow Chamber of Commerce?"

"Miss!"

The black-clothed man hurriedly reminded her that Su Qianqian's invitation was a bit reckless. After all, it was shown that this young man Wuji had an ulterior motive since he asked to go to Yan Capital with another identity, and they had not yet figured out the true identity of this young man.

Su Qianqian raised her slender hand, indicating that the other party that she already knew it.

She soon said, "As long as Young Master Wuji is willing, you can go to Yan Capital as the deacon of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, our party will return to Yan Capital after the delivery of the goods here. You can walk with us."

Probably after hearing Su Qianqian's words, the eyes of the surrounding caravan members turned towards Mo Xiu.

The Rainbow Chamber of Commerce was the largest chamber of commerce in the entire Yan Kingdom and even had influence in the surrounding countries. Anyone who met the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce dared not act presumptuous.

Because of this, it was unknown how many people squeezed their heads to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce and wanted to work in the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce.

The status of the ordinary members of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce was still enviable, and the status of the deacon of the Chamber of Commerce was extremely noble as countless people had to cautiously flatter.

Now that Su Qianqian not only invited Mo Xiu to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, but invited him to join as a deacon at that. Wasn't this guy too lucky?

Mo Xiu turned a blind eye to everyone's gaze, and without any joy, he shook his head slightly, "I don't need to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. It's enough that I can go to the Yan Capital."

Seeing Mo Xiu actually refused Su Qianqian's invitation, everyone was surprised again.

In these years, there were still people who refused to be the deacon of Rainbow Chamber of Commerce? Was this guy's brain flooded?

Su Qianqian was also a little surprised, "Young Master Wuji wouldn't consider it?"

"There's nothing to consider." Mo Xiu was very determined.

Su Qianqian was stunned when she saw that Mo Xiu was unwilling. Finally, she reluctantly said, "This little girl is abrupt. Since Young Master Wuji is unwilling, we will help you get individual identity at that time."

After a pause, she said, "Young Master Wuji said that he can help us get a batch of spiritual plants in a short time. Can you tell me more about it?"

As if afraid of Mo Xiu's misunderstanding, she quickly added, "Don't worry, Young Master Wuji, as long as we can get the spiritual plants, we will definitely not cross the river and demolish the bridge. Besides, you saved our life just now."

Mo Xiu was not afraid that the other party would cross the river and demolish the bridge, so he did not hide it, and directly replied, "Regarding Dark Mist Mountain, as you said just now, there are a lot of spiritual plants there. I can take you there to collect it. I've been there, and it has all the spiritual plants you need."

"..."

Su Qianqian was speechless at once.

The people around were also very speechless. They were surprised just now since even they couldn't find a solution. Where did Mo Xiu's confidence come from for him to say that he could get a lot of spiritual plants?

But the spiritual plants on the Dark Mist Mountain had already been infected, and it couldn't be used normally. So what was the point of picking those spiritual plants?

"Young Master Wuji, are you sure you are not joking?" Su Qianqian asked with a frown.

"Naturally not." Mo Xiu nodded seriously.

"Then you should know that the spiritual plants and herbs of Dark Mist Mountain have been infected and cannot be used normally at all, right?"

"I know."

"Since you know, why do you even take us there to pick it? Could it be that Young Master Wuji also has a secret method to restore those spiritual plants and herbs to an uninfected state?"

"Correct."

"..."

Su Qianqian blinked, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

After a while, she asked again, "Do you really have that secret method?"

"Yes." Mo Xiu nodded again to confirm.

Su Qianqian fell silent immediately, staring at Mo Xiu's eyes for a long time as if wanting to see the greasiness in Mo Xiu's eyes, but it was a pity that Mo Xiu's eyes were always flat as water, and there was no wave in this ancient well at all. She could only give up.

"Since you have that kind of secret method, why don't you pick it yourself?" The black man suddenly asked.

"It has no use for me." Mo Xiu replied calmly.

"You don't need spiritual plants and herbs? Those things can be used to refine pills, how come there are still those who don't need it?"

The black-clothed man sneered and looked at Su Qianqian again, "Miss, I think this person probably has a problem. Before saving us, I'm pretty sure there was a conspiracy behind and we should not easily agree."

Su Qianqian didn't think that Mo Xiu had any other plot, or that Mo Xiu's plot had already been said since he just wanted them to take Mo Xiu to Yan Capital, and arrange a suitable identity for Mo Xiu.

This couldn't be regarded as a conspiracy, because Mo Xiu was making a deal with them, and it had nothing to do with saving them before. It could also be said that because he saved them, he could trade with them, so the focus was still on trading.

Mo Xiu's explanation was indeed a bit difficult to understand, but Su Qianqian still chose to believe in Mo Xiu.

Biting her lip, she soon said, "Well, let me take a few people with Young Master Wuji. Yang Lin, you stay here to help take care of the goods, and you will react accordingly."

Yang Lin was the name of the man in black. Hearing this, he quickly objected, "No! Dark Mist Mountain is a place of evil, it's extremely dangerous, how can Young Miss take the risk in person? How about you stay here and let me lead people and Young Master Wuji to go there together."

"I have decided, no need to say more!" Su Qianqian shook his head slightly.

Yang Lin opened his mouth, but after seeing Su Qianqian's gaze, he said nothing.

Soon, Su Qian chose ten people, and came back and said to Mo Xiu, "Young Master Wuji, let's go."

"Yeah." Mo Xiu nodded.

After that, the group set off and headed towards the direction of Dark Mist Mountain.

Yang Lin watched the group of people leave, muttering a few words in his mouth, and then he looked back when everyone disappeared.

...

About an hour later, everyone came to the foot of Dark Mist Mountain.

"Young Master Wuji, there are ghosts everywhere in this mountain, should we make some preparations before entering the mountain?" Su Qianqian couldn't help but said.

"No." Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "You just follow me."

Everyone had heard about the rumors about Dark Mist Mountain. Seeing that they were about to enter the Dark Mist Mountain, they were very nervous in their hearts, but Su Qianqian came personally, and they were too embarrassed to back down, so they could only bite the bullet and follow Mo Xiu as they stepped cautiously into the Dark Mist Mountain that became a place full of evil ghosts.

Just entering the boundary of Dark Mist Mountain, the temperature dropped several degrees without emitting any sign. A gust of cloudy wind blew in, giving people a feeling of being in hell, making people shiver involuntarily.

Soon, the ghosts wandering in the mountain found a group of people and gathered towards the group of people.

Seeing this horrible scene, everyone except Mo Xiu had their hearts jumped to their throats, almost frightened to pee.
