Chapter 730: Chapter 730: I am a Civilized Person
Jiang Xiaobai figured it out.
The Xuanfeng Pavilion was indeed on guard against opposing forces.
And his strength had already reached the peak of the Great Achievement mid-stage, which could easily lead to misunderstandings.
But Jiang Xiaobai was too lazy to explain anymore.
So, he decided to directly confront the master of Xuanfeng Pavilion.
“Have your master come see me.”
Jiang Xiaobai said irritably, then continued drinking and eating meat.
The young man’s face twitched slightly, but he dared not disobey!
Jiang Xiaobai was too powerful!
Even the master wasn’t a match for him.
Therefore, the young man immediately took out his communication token to contact the master.
Meanwhile, the inn’s lobby was quickly emptied by others.
Jiang Xiaobai continued to eat his meat calmly.
Before long, a fragrance wafted over.
A woman in a red split gown appeared in the lobby.
She had a cold facial expression and an explosively attractive figure.
Her face was exceptionally beautiful, even slightly seductive.
However, her solemn demeanor was due to apprehensions about Jiang Xiaobai, a powerful martial artist.
“Sir, I don’t believe Xuanfeng Pavilion is acquainted with you?”
Huo Qingyi looked at Jiang Xiaobai coldly: “What price would it take for you to leave?”
Huo Qingyi was in a tough situation.
Her carefully hidden treasure trove had always been kept a secret.
Even the Blood Cloud Sect, one of the strongest powers in the South Wind Domain, didn’t know about it.
All because she was afraid of attracting powerful people wanting to seize the treasure trove.
She had hidden it so well, but still, such a powerful figure had appeared!
How could she not be upset?
“The girl is quite good-looking.”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled: “What if I told you that I’m just passing by, would you believe me?”
Huo Qingyi’s icy face finally softened a bit.
Her cold demeanor turned into seduction.
“Young Master, please stop joking, I don’t have much to offer, but would one million medium-grade Immortal Stones suffice?”
Jiang Xiaobai was truly puzzled!
He wasn’t here to make trouble, so why were they acting this way?
“Have I not made myself clear? I’m not here to covet your treasures, I’m just passing by. If you keep prattling on, do you believe that I could lose my temper?”
Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly, letting his aura leak out.
All the people present could barely withstand such terrifying pressure.
Only Huo Qingyi could barely resist.
“Young Master, please calm down, calm down!”
“Perhaps there is some misunderstanding!”
Huo Qingyi quickly tried to explain.
At this point, Jiang Xiaobai finally began to control his aura.
He continued to eat his meat.
Paying no attention to this woman.
For a while, Huo Qingyi was puzzled.
She sincerely didn’t believe that Jiang Xiaobai had no intentions at all.
However, he just wouldn’t say it!
He was strong, what could she do about it?
After hesitating for a while, Huo Qingyi gritted her teeth.
“Young Master, this place is rather crude, would you like to come to Xuanfeng Pavilion as a guest? I’ll certainly offer you the best reception.”
“Fine wine and beautiful women, you can choose as you please.”
The moment these words were spoken, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t intend to respond.
However, suddenly, a system notification rang in his mind.
“New World Trial Mission Released!”
“Mission Phase One: Enter Xuanfeng Pavilion and take the Tianyu Xuan Stone from the Pavilion’s secret realm!”
“Upon completion of the mission, Phase Two will be released, and you’ll be awarded a Paradise Pass.”
“Reminder, the trial mission cannot be rejected!”
“Reminder, in case of failure in Phase One, the host will be forcibly exiled to the Tianyuan World for one year.”
Jiang Xiaobai really wanted to curse!
Deep down, he regretted not smacking himself!
If he hadn’t stirred up trouble and left with Huo Shuyu, why would this have happened?
For a while, Jiang Xiaobai’s face was a mix of various expressions.
Huo Qingyi was taken aback.
She had already prepared herself for dealing with Jiang Xiaobai’s unpredictable temper.
At that moment, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly sighed.
“Really, why did you have to stick your head out?”
“If you hadn’t done so, I would’ve eaten, drank, and left. Now, look what you’ve done, your meddling has put your Xuanfeng Pavilion in danger.”
Jiang Xiaobai said slowly.
Huo Qingyi immediately felt that something was wrong, but before she could react, a crimson longsword was already resting against her neck.
“You have two choices.”
Jiang Xiaobai sat like a bandit: “First, I destroy you and your Xuanfeng Pavilion, and then take the Tianyu Xuan Stone from your secret realm by force.”
“Second, you hand over the item yourself, I’ll spare your life, and if I’m in a good mood, I might even help you out. After all, robbing right off the bat just isn’t right.”
“You see, I’m a civilized person. I don’t like to engage in violent acts.”
“Compared to others, the fact that I’m giving you two choices is already quite generous. Don’t be ungrateful.”
Jiang Xiaobai was quite humane.
After all, with his strength, he could’ve directly attacked.
Huo Qingyi was stunned.
Didn’t you just say you were just passing by?
How come you changed your mind in just a few seconds?
Are you playing with me?
“Young Master… let’s talk this through, I…”
“Hurry up, I don’t have a lot of time left, you only have… three breaths’ worth of time.”
Jiang Xiaobai yawned.
Huo Qingyi’s face turned red and she was incredibly frustrated.
She clenched her teeth, “Young Master, aren’t you leaving me any way out at all?”
“Damn, girl, aren’t you being too pushy?”
Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow: “Wasn’t giving you two choices a way out? Do you think other people would give you one?”
“But that secret realm is everything to me…”
“Are you hard of hearing, or are you just not understanding what I said? I just want the Tianyu Xuan Stone from your secret realm, nothing more.”
The moment these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
He just wanted one stone?
Huo Qingyi had no idea what was in the secret realm. She had only spent decades trying to acquire it!
And it truly was everything to her!
But according to what Jiang Xiaobai just said, had she misunderstood something?
“Alright, alright, this is definitely acceptable!”
Huo Qingyi quickly said.
“Then no more talking, lead me to take the stone, and as for compensating you, we’ll see when the time comes.”
“That won’t work!”
Huo Qingyi quickly responded: “To be honest, Master, the secret realm hasn’t been fully opened yet. It will take at least three more days.”
“If Young Master doesn’t mind, we could stay at Xuanfeng Pavilion first. I will certainly take good care of you!”
Having no other option, Jiang Xiaobai had to agree.
For a while, Huo Qingyi was uncontrollably excited.
She had thought of many plans in her mind, and as long as the powerful man in front of her followed her back, she could execute them!
Under Huo Qingyi’s careful guidance, Jiang Xiaobai entered the Xuanfeng Pavilion.
It was a massive building complex.
As he expected, Xuanfeng City was indeed the domain of Xuanfeng Pavilion.
Here, everything was under the control of Xuanfeng Pavilion.
“May I ask for your name, sir?”
“You can call me Jiang Bai.”
“Alright, Young Master Jiang, my name is Huo Qingyi.”
Huo Qingyi was very polite: “Young Master, please wait a moment, I’ll make arrangements for you.”
