Chapter 245 My Dragon City has suffered huge losses, so it's only right to give them some benef
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yu was slightly surprised and asked curiously:
“My men just captured and interrogated some people. Black Soil City has a strong foundation. Although they brought out most of their elites, there are still many experts in the city, and even an eighth-level deputy city lord. I wonder how you plan to completely destroy Black Soil City?”
He could guess that the two women, as messengers of the temple, must have other tricks up their sleeves.
However, there are still many powerful individuals in Black Soil City, and it is impossible for the two of them to completely destroy Black Soil City.
"Lord City Lord seems to have forgotten that we are messengers of the Temple!"
A rare hint of pride flashed in Bayin's eyes as she tilted her snow-white neck and said,
"There are several eighth-tier experts in Flame City and Hurricane City. They are all guest elders of the temple and naturally have the obligation to assist our temple in eradicating all evil and wickedness in the world!"
"Oh, I see!" Xiao Yu exclaimed, suddenly understanding.
Now that you mention it, this temple is really amazing!
They don't take action themselves, but treat others like beasts of burden.
"In that case, we need to have a proper discussion!"
Xiao Yu's eyes darted around, and a warm smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Upon seeing that smile, Yilong and Bayin narrowed their beautiful eyes and became wary.
Sure enough, the next second, Xiao Yu spoke again:
"My esteemed envoys, dealing with a world destroyer like Black Earth City is the temple's duty, but my Dragon City has gone to great lengths and made enormous sacrifices to help the temple fulfill its duties, and my men have suffered heavy casualties."
"Your Excellencies, now that you've wiped out the remaining forces in Black Soil City, could you offer some compensation?"
"Hmph! They actually dare to ask our temple for benefits? Don't even think about it!"
Upon hearing this, Bayin snorted coldly and said indignantly, "Isn't it you yourselves who took action against Black Soil City for the sake of the Salt Mine, and we're just being your free henchmen?"
"Moreover, your Dragon City's strength far surpasses that of Black Soil City. At most, there were some seriously injured, but not a single one died in battle. Is this considered a small price to pay?" Yi Long was completely unconvinced and directly refused.
"Alright... I'll give you a chance to rephrase your words."
Xiao Yu maintained his smile, and as he spoke, he pulled a Bodhi fruit from his pocket, teasingly saying, "Didn't you want a Bodhi fruit? Didn't you want to buy a house in the inner city? Do you want it? If you do, just say so..."
Upon seeing the Bodhi fruit, all the beastmen present stared wide-eyed.
They all felt a fatal attraction that they couldn't resist.
Deputy City Lord Gou Daoren and the three leaders exchanged glances, and they were all certain that this thing was probably the Bodhi Fruit that Wu Weier had mentioned, a divine medicine that could cure all diseases!
"Hehe! The City Lord of Dragon City is right!"
Yilong's golden eyes were fixed on the Bodhi fruit, and she immediately smiled.
"Lord Dragon City has made tremendous sacrifices for the temple, which we have both witnessed, so it is only right that we express our gratitude! Rest assured, once Flame City and Hurricane City have completely annihilated Black Soil City, we will definitely deliver all the spoils to Lord Dragon City."
“That’s right, Lord Dragon City, rest assured, leave this matter to us sisters! We’ll make sure you handle it perfectly.” Bayin immediately dropped her arrogance and disdain and revealed a fawning smile.
With their knowledge, they naturally recognized the Bodhi tree.
However... they had never seen anyone of such high rank as Longcheng.
So far, Xiao Yu has only sold two to Xue Donglai.
That's only because he helped him in a crucial moment; if it were anyone else, don't even think about it.
Both Yilong and Bayin had discussed with Xiao Yu, hoping that he could sell a few of them.
However... Xiao Yu refused for various reasons; in short, he simply wouldn't give it to him.
But now... Xiao Yu is willing to agree, and even promised to give them a house, so the situation is different.
Living in the inner city, bathed in the glow of the night sky every day, is very beneficial to one's mental well-being.
Even without taking the Bodhi Fruit or the temple's medicine, the problem shouldn't be too serious.
Moreover, when annihilating Black Soil City, neither of them needed to exert any effort.
All you need to do is give Flame City and Hurricane City an order and have them carry it out.
As for those valuables, the temple never wanted them; it always let the working forces distribute them themselves.
In any case, whatever treasures they want, the temple's are always the best.
This time, it is strictly forbidden for Flame City and Hurricane City to touch those things.
Tell them to deliver the goods to Longcheng.
"Then thank you very much, Your Excellencies!" Xiao Yu said with a smile, cupping his hands to the two women.
"Where should we look for you after we get the stuff?" Yilong asked before leaving.
Xiao Yu thought for a moment and replied, "The City of Ruins!"
After completing the transaction in the City of Beasts, head straight to the City of Ruins.
It would be best if the two sides met in the City of Ruins.
Then, he had the earth dragon turtle activate the rising and lowering stone house, watching the two women leave Dragon City.
Not far away, Gou Daoren and the three orc leaders were dumbfounded by what they saw.
The temple messengers were seen outside the City of Ten Thousand Beasts; even the eighth-tier beastmen could only avoid them.
Because even if you can defeat the temple envoy, the other side can bring a group of eighth-tier beings to gang up on you!
In the wasteland, only the temple possesses this kind of power!
No one dared to defy the temple; even those high-ranking eighth-order officials dared not refuse the temple's orders.
Unexpectedly, this Lord of Dragon City could make the usually arrogant and disdainful temple envoy bow down and fawn over him.
This method is truly unparalleled.
However, I always feel that this Lord of Dragon City seems to have become obsessed with money!
What, you can't stop talking about money?
However, this may not necessarily be a bad thing.
The Lord of Dragon City is very fond of energy stones.
The City of Beasts has never been able to trade with the outside world, so it does have a considerable amount of stored energy stones.
Thinking of this, Gou Daoren led the three leaders to Xiao Yu and went straight to the point: "Lord of Dragon City, I wonder if you could sell us some of those Bodhi Fruits!"
"Well..." Xiao Yu frowned slightly, pondering.
"Name your price, as long as we can afford it..." The kobold beastman tensed up the moment he saw Xiao Yu frown and immediately spoke up.
Seemingly afraid that Xiao Yu would refuse, the dog-headed orc's tone was somewhat humble, urging Xiao Yu to name his price directly.
There's no way around it; orcs already live a very lowly life in this world.
For a long time, although they had some energy stones, they had nowhere to trade them.
If the Lord of Dragon City is willing to trade with them, it would be an immense favor.
"Oh, it's not about the price..." Seeing that the orcs had misunderstood, Xiao Yu explained with a smile, "I was calculating the price of different grades of Bodhi Fruit."
"Different grades of Bodhi Fruit?" The beastmen exchanged glances, instantly dumbfounded.
Isn't your Bodhi tree just one level?
You can't possibly upgrade it to another level, can you?
Seeing that the beastmen didn't understand, Xiao Yu didn't explain further and simply said, "A sixth-order Bodhi fruit costs 20 energy stones, and I can only sell five per month!"
