Chapter 62: So This Is Your Strength
Chen Xuan's eyelids twitched wildly and he was extremely speechless. He recruited people to increase the fighting power and charged 300 gold soul coins per person. He really thought that others were fools.
He refused decisively. Yes, he did have some wealth at the moment, but he was not a fool.
"Don't be so quick to refuse, brother. How about this, I'll reduce it to two hundred and fifty gold soul coins per person, okay?" said the bespectacled young man Gu Jinchao.
Chen Xuan ignored her, quickly finished his dinner, and then pulled Yi Yi upstairs.
"Hey, brother, the maximum amount per person is 200 gold soul coins, no less." The young man with glasses shouted from behind.
Chen Xuan didn't even turn his head and took Yi Yi into the hotel room.
Watching the two disappear from his sight, the bespectacled young man Gu Jinchao felt sorry for them. He secretly wondered, "Is the real asking price too high?"
Zhu Zhuqing slept in a room by herself, and Chen Xuan naturally lived with his sister in the next room.
The night was getting dark, the moonlight was like water, nothing happened that night, and the next day soon arrived.
Chen Xuan woke up immediately and woke up Chen Yiyi who was lying on the bed, saying it was time to set off.
In the early morning, the sun rises, all things come back to life, and the air is particularly fresh.
The three of them had a simple breakfast, left the hotel, and headed towards the Star Forest.
After leaving the town, it is still five or six kilometers away from the Soul Beast Forest.
"Hey, brother." On the way, just as they entered the wilderness, a voice called Chen Xuan.
In the rear, a group of people were coming here in a mighty manner, about fifteen or sixteen people, ready to go.
The person in the picture was none other than Gu Jinchao, the young man with glasses who appeared last night.
"Brother, there are three of us. Do you want to join us? I'll give you a discount. How about 150 gold soul coins per person?" He still didn't give up.
"You're a soul master, and you're so short of money?" Chen Xuan was speechless, as the other party seemed to be staring at money.
Looking at the aggressive team of fifteen or sixteen people, Zhu Zhuqing held Yiyi's hand tightly, with a little more vigilance in her eyes.
The young man with glasses sighed and said, "Brother, you don't know the importance of money until you become the head of a family. Although money is not everything, life without money is a mess."
"By the way, are you the Soul Emperor? You don't look like one." The other party mentioned last night that the team was led by a Soul Emperor, but Chen Xuan felt that this young man with the potential to be a profiteer did not look like a Soul Master at all.
The bespectacled young man Gu Jinchao did not hide the fact that he was still some distance away from becoming a Soul Emperor, and had only cultivated to the fifty-third level of Soul King.
In this area, he has a high status and is considered to be somewhat famous. He knows many hiring teams and has a rich network of relationships.
He is indeed the team leader and knows many soul masters. The one at the Soul Emperor level is a friend he met a few months ago. They are currently in an employment relationship and he pays 10,000 gold soul coins to the other party every month.
Chen Xuan frowned slightly. His eyes were sharp and he looked carefully. When the young man talked about the Soul Emperor, there was a hint of fear in his eyes, which he caught.
There is something strange about this, and it doesn't seem as simple as it seems.
"Brother, what do you think? Do you want to join my team? The Star Dou Forest is full of dangers. Look, you have two beautiful girlfriends with you. It would be bad if you get hurt." said the bespectacled young man Gu Jinchao. He still did not give up and continued to ask.
With a kind smile on his face, he looked at the two women behind Chen Xuan, wanting to start with them.
The next moment, the young man with glasses was stunned, his eyes were dull, and the words that were about to come out of his mouth stopped abruptly.
His gaze stayed on Zhu Zhuqing, full of shock and disbelief, as if he had seen something incredible.
The young man with glasses quickly realized that something was wrong, and quickly looked away, returning to normal.
"Brothers, since you don't want to join, let's just say goodbye." He didn't insist anymore and called for the large group to leave and head towards the Star Forest.
The crowd passed by the three people, but another person cast a malicious look at them.
It was a bald man with a strong physique and a very sturdy body. He had a pair of fiery eyes, always staring at Zhu Zhuqing and wandering over her body, naked and without any cover. The team of fifteen people marched forward in a mighty manner and entered a mountain in the distance.
Chen Xuan did not follow, but changed direction, taking Zhu Zhuqing around several large mountains ahead.
The distance covered during this period undoubtedly increased by several kilometers.
He always felt that it was not a good idea to follow that group of people, and something bad might happen.
"Do you know that person?" Chen Xuan asked after going around another mountain.
He was referring to the young man with glasses, who had a strange expression on his face and seemed to know Zhu Zhuqing.
"do not know."
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. She also felt strange. She really didn't know the young man with glasses, but the other party seemed to know her identity. It was very strange.
"He said he was from the Xing Luo Empire and was a teacher. Is it possible that he had taught you or met you?" Chen Xuan recounted what happened last night.
Zhu Zhuqing still shook her head. She really didn't recognize this person's face in her memory.
"alright."
Chen Xuan stopped and carried Chen Yiyi on his back regardless of her resistance.
The sun had already risen and reached halfway up the sky. It was already morning.
"We have to hurry and try to finish before the sun sets." Chen Xuan took out two kunai with a string of spells engraved on them.
He always had a bad feeling and didn't want to stay in the Star Forest for too long.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned, a little confused, thinking that Chen Xuan meant to travel as quickly as possible.
Although the time can be shortened, the consumption of soul power will also increase. The Star Dou Great Forest is full of dangers and may be attacked at any time. It is very dangerous if the soul power is insufficient.
"catch me."
Chen Xuan didn't explain much. He raised his hand and the silver kunai flew out, crossed the sky and shot into the distance.
Zhu Zhuqing is a cool goddess with a cold demeanor. She rarely interacts with men. When Chen Xuan called out to her, she did not take the next step because she felt that physical contact between men and women is not appropriate.
Chen Xuan sensed that the kunai was about to fall to the ground, so he reached out decisively and grabbed Zhu Zhuqing who was still hesitating.
With a swish sound, a golden light flashed, and the three people disappeared from the spot. When they reappeared, they were two hundred meters away.
This speed was as if shrinking the distance into an inch, and such a long distance was covered in less than two seconds.
The three of them were in mid-air. Chen Xuan moved quickly and shot another kunai into the distance.
In this way, this area would occasionally flash with golden light.
Chen Xuan took the two of them and continuously used the Flying Thunder God to travel in the most convenient way. In a blink of an eye, they had escaped five or six kilometers and were about to reach the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Wow, brother, you are so awesome!" Feeling the wind whistling in her ears, Chen Yiyi's hair was flying, but she didn't care. Her little face was full of excitement and she was extremely excited.
This supersonic experience is like taking one step to reach 100 meters. It is so exciting.
Zhu Zhuqing's face was cold, and her beautiful eyes were like clear autumn water. Looking at Chen Xuan's face so close to her, she was no longer calm.
At this moment, she felt an indescribable complex emotion in her heart, as if a cloud of fog had just been cleared away today, revealing confusion and helplessness.
"So, this is your true strength."
