Chapter 352 Xue Qingcheng: I am willing to be your slave!
A moment later, at the entrance to the forging area.
Chu Ling Shuang smiled and said, "Young City Lord Xue Donglai, we meet again!"
"Yes! Commander Chu, it's been a long time!" Seeing that Chu Ling Shuang's attitude towards him remained unchanged, Xue Donglai felt a little relieved, thinking that Xiao Yu was still Xiao Yu and should still consider him a friend.
Zhongnu stared at Chu Ling Shuang, utterly shocked.
This girl was only at the sixth level, yet her aura was extremely powerful.
With top-tier equipment, he would absolutely crush his own young master!
"Dragon City Avenue has been widened so much? And there are so many more buildings!" As soon as he entered the inner city, Xue Donglai's pupils shrank again.
Is this still the Longcheng I know?
Xue Donglai couldn't remember this being the first time he had felt this way.
Last time I came here, Longcheng Avenue was only five meters wide.
But now, the main passage is more than ten meters long, and there are two two-meter-wide sidewalks on both sides.
The variety of plants and vegetables inside has increased several times over, and the planting area has also expanded several times over.
"Commander Chu!" Xue Donglai asked casually as he followed, "Has your city lord met the Sotun brothers?"
"Yes, I saw him," Chu Ling Shuang said, raising an eyebrow.
"I wonder... what they talked about?" Xue Donglai asked tentatively.
"Well... you'll know when you meet the City Lord. Hehe!" Chu Ling Shuang chuckled.
He thought to himself, "I'm the one who personally received them."
This smile sent a chill down the spines of Xue Donglai and the other two.
The Xue family was worried because Xiao Yu had sided with Sotun.
The main reason is that the current pillar of the Xue family, City Lord Xueye, is no longer capable of supporting the family.
Sotun is in his prime; even a fool would know which side to choose and which side to stand on.
Seeing Chu Ling Shuang's reaction now, I have a feeling that the situation is not good.
"Don't worry, young master. Even if things don't work out, I can still lead you all away!" Zhongnu said confidently.
He sensed that the waters of Dragon City were quite deep; he probably couldn't win a fight, but escaping shouldn't be a problem.
"Well, that's all we can do."
The three of them entered the city lord's mansion in a state of tension and trepidation.
"Young City Lord Xue Donglai! We meet again." With a cheerful voice, Xiao Yu walked in slowly with Hong Lian.
"City Lord Xiao Yu! We meet again!"
Upon seeing Xiao Yu, Xue Donglai and the other two immediately stood up.
Xue Donglai was somewhat nervous.
He also discovered that Xiao Yu was still the same Xiao Yu.
Or rather, he is no longer the original Xiao Yu.
Because Xiao Yu's strength has increased many times over.
What he wants to know most right now is Xiao Yu's attitude towards him.
Although the two were once considered equals, now...
The loyal slave on the other side was filled with shame, his toes digging into the ground...
When he came to Dragon City, he made all sorts of boasts in front of Xue Donglai and his sister, saying things like, "I can easily suppress the mere city lord of Dragon City!" and "I can come and go as I please in this little Dragon City!"
But now?
The emaciated old man's legs felt weak, and he instinctively gripped the chair armrests.
If it weren't for protecting Xue Donglai and his sister, he would have run away!
Xue Qingcheng stared blankly at the young man in front of her, her eyes sparkling.
So this is the legendary Lord of Dragon City? He's a hundred times more handsome than my brother described!
"Please sit down." Xiao Yu smiled and waved his hand, first having a maid serve tea, then looked at Xue Dong and said, "I haven't even arrived at the City of Ruins yet, why has the young city lord suddenly come?"
"City Lord Xiao Yu..."
Xue Donglai thought for a moment, then, without further hesitation, went straight to the point, "I saw Batu and Suotun leave Dragon City. You probably already know that Suotun has different political views from my father and is plotting to seize power. I wonder... which side are you on?"
Xiao Yu was slightly taken aback, then shrugged and said, "You and Sotun are both my friends now, so I won't take sides! I won't help either of you."
"Not helping either side?" Xue Donglai immediately became anxious.
Although he was pleased to learn that Xiao Yu had not cooperated with Sotun.
However, if Xiao Yu doesn't help him, then the Xue family is still doomed!
“City Lord Xiao Yu!” At this moment, Xue Qingcheng, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly stood up, bowed slightly to Xiao Yu, and said, “Please help us. Whatever your conditions, even if you want me to be your slave, I am willing.”
The blonde girl wanted to win him over with her beauty.
Even if it means sacrificing herself, she will get the healing medicine and save her father.
"Sister..." Xue Donglai's expression changed slightly, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"Oh? To be a slave?" Xiao Yu looked over in surprise. The girl in front of him had long, wavy golden hair and a pair of golden wings, like an angel from mythology, noble and charming.
"There's no need for me to be a slave or a maid."
Looking away, Xiao Yu shook his head with amusement and said with a smile:
"As I've said before, you and Sotun are both my friends. Therefore, it's neither morally nor logically my place to intervene in the power struggle within the City of Ruins. But... if Sotun can buy medicine in my Dragon City, then naturally you can too..."
"What does City Lord Xiao Yu mean?" Xue Donglai asked, a hint of doubt on his face.
The next second, his eyes lit up instantly, and he cupped his hands in thanks, saying, "I understand! Thank you, Brother Xiao Yu!"
He understood what Xiao Yu meant; Xiao Yu was still on his side.
What the Xue family needs most right now isn't outside help, but Xiao Yu's healing medicine.
If Xiao Yu is willing to sell healing medicine, Father can recover.
In that case, all problems will be solved.
Even if Sotun really rebelled and seized power, his father Xueye could easily suppress him!
"So, it turns out we've been the ones being paranoid all along. The City Lord of Dragon City never intended to get involved in this matter." Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Zhong Nu and Xue Qingcheng exchanged a glance.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and her eyes were full of gratitude as she looked at Xiao Yu.
They were actually willing to trade such a precious medicine to them.
Xue Qingcheng felt a strange sadness in her heart.
She had already said she would be a slave or maid, but Xiao Yu seemed to look down on her.
However, this also made her even more interested in this man.
He was the only man who remained indifferent and unmoved by her beauty.
Thank goodness! They didn't lay a hand on us!
At this moment, Zhongnu recalled the words he had spoken in Longcheng.
He boasted about himself to the skies.
The little girl looked at him with adoration!
But now... the loyal servant is overjoyed.
He was glad that he hadn't fought with the people from Longcheng.
Although he was confident that he could escape with his life from any level below the ninth rank.
But... when facing Xiao Yu, he felt that it was unlikely that he could even escape from Xiao Yu's grasp, let alone suppress him. Xiao Yu could probably suppress him with a flick of his wrist!
"Don't get too excited!" Seeing the three of them looking so excited, Xiao Yu said irritably, "My glowing tree is already at the eighth level, and my Bodhi fruit has reached the seventh level. The effect is ten times stronger than before! As for the price..."
"What? An eighth-tier luminous tree? A seventh-tier Bodhi tree?" Xue Donglai was overjoyed.
No wonder! This tree suddenly grew so big, it blocks out the sky.
Furthermore, the sixth-order Bodhi fruit would greatly benefit the father's injuries.
Isn't a seventh-tier Bodhi fruit capable of completely curing the disease?
Zhongnu and Xue Qingcheng were also very excited when they heard this.
"Then, how much do Night-Shining Dew and Bodhi Fruit cost now?"
"A Bodhi fruit costs 1 million energy stones per piece, a drop of Night-Shining Dew costs 200 energy stones per drop, mulberries..."
“No problem, we have already prepared the energy stones! Brother Xiao Yu, please take a look!” Upon hearing Xiao Yu’s offer, Xue Donglai immediately took out the energy stones he had prepared and presented them with both hands.
The subsequent transactions went very smoothly.
Xiao Yu was naturally overjoyed to have received another two million energy stones.
Xue Donglai and his two companions, on the contrary, were grateful to him.
On this trip, they not only escaped danger unscathed, but also obtained several seventh-tier Bodhi fruits, thousands of drops of eighth-tier Night-Shining Dew, as well as rare and precious materials such as milk and mulberries.
"Lord Xiao Yu! I am deeply grateful!" After the transaction was completed, Xue Donglai immediately cupped his hands and said, "To avoid any unforeseen complications, I must return to the City of Ruins immediately. Farewell!"
"Okay, no problem. I'll have the Earth Dragon Turtle take you down."
