#885 - The Personal Charm of the Son of Heaven

There were a total of seven Holy Fruits. Lu Wu ate one, leaving six.

But now Xu Quan says he can only return four, so the remaining two...

Yang Liu Shi slightly turned her head to look at Xu Quan, knowing that these two should be reserved for her and Wei Changtian.

Without saying anything, Yang Liu Shi quickly retracted her gaze and shifted her attention back to the white-skirted woman.

The latter's expression at this time was naturally not very good.

"Four?"

Narrowing her eyes, the white-skirted woman sneered, "Hmph, the Holy Tree only bears fruit once every sixty years, and each time it only yields a few Holy Fruits."

"The Holy Fruit is so precious! How can you take it away?!"

"Don't even mention four, not even one less will do!"

"Return all seven Holy Fruits immediately, and this Queen may overlook your transgression!"

"If not... then no matter what abilities you possess, this Queen will ensure that you cannot leave this hall even half a step!"

"..."

Her voice grew louder and louder, and her tone became increasingly cold.

The white-skirted woman was undoubtedly extremely angry at Xu Quan's arrogant statement of "only being able to return four," but this anger was mixed with a hint of apprehension.

Almost imperceptibly, she glanced at the three men still kneeling on the ground, her hands clenched within her sleeves.

She had never seen such methods before, and she did not know what the background of this ordinary-looking man was.

But out of respect for her dignity as a Demon Queen, and her cherishment for treasures like the Holy Fruit, she absolutely could not yield.

However, no matter how she threatened, Xu Quan on the other side would not change his mind.

"Demon Queen, I said, I can only return four."

Looking back at the white-skirted woman, Xu Quan's tone also contained a bit of indifference.

"If you are unwilling, then you will not get even one."

"I mean what I say."

"You!"

Her chest heaving violently, the white-skirted woman questioned in a shrill voice, "What are you going to do?!"

"Do what?"

Xu Quan sneered, pinched a purple fruit, and held it in front of him, his fingers exerting a slight force.

"Chī ~"

Accompanied by a subtle sound, the originally smooth, pearl-like fruit was immediately squeezed out of shape, and the next moment, crystal clear juice dripped down.

Xu Quan did not answer, but instead used practical actions to directly show the white-skirted woman what he was going to do.

Upon seeing this scene, the latter's eyes widened instantly, and the anger in her eyes reached an unprecedented level.

"You dare!!"

Taking a sudden step forward, the powerful aura around her stirred up a gust of wind, causing the corners of her skirt to flutter.

She stared at Xu Quan with a murderous gaze, and hissed almost one word at a time:

"Stop, or die!"

"Die?"

Sneering, Xu Quan glanced at the white-skirted woman, seemingly not taking the other party's threat to heart at all, and instead directly exerted force.

"Pū!"

Juice splattered, a cloud of golden mist exploded, and a Holy Fruit was torn apart, then completely disappeared in the surprised or dazed gazes of Yang Liu Shi and the white-skirted woman.

"..."

Sighing softly in her heart, Yang Liu Shi felt quite guilty for not being able to complete the task assigned by Wei Changtian.

Fortunately, she unexpectedly obtained these few fruits, which could be considered not a complete loss.

Watchfully staring at the white-skirted woman, Yang Liu Shi took a light breath and was just about to say something to Xu Quan.

But the latter shook his head slightly at her at this moment, and then slowly pinched the second purple fruit again.

"Demon Queen, now I can only return three Holy Fruits to you."

Looking up at the dazed white-skirted woman, Xu Quan's voice was still so calm.

He smiled calmly and then continued to say:

"If you still disagree, then in five breaths, it will be two."

"If you still disagree, in ten breaths, it will be one."

"And after fifteen breaths, there will be none..."

"..."

"No!"

"No, don't!!!"

"Young Master!!"

"Young Master!!!"

Chǒu hour, the main tent of the Tiangou Army.

When Zhang San rushed into the military tent in a panic, Wei Changtian was in the Dream Dao, fighting against the ten assassins who had assassinated him this morning.

After several practice attempts, now if he were to face these people again, even without using the luck divine beast and divine strike, the probability of winning should be increased by at least 20%.

It's just that I don't know if there will be another chance in the future...

"What's wrong?"

Returning from the Dream Dao to reality, Wei Changtian slowly sat up from the bed, looked at Zhang San's anxious face, and frowned and asked, "Did something happen in Linchuan City?"

"It's not Linchuan City, it's Madam's side!"

Zhang San replied very quickly: "Young Master! Madam and Young Master Xu encountered an accident on Changliu Mountain!"

"What?!"

Jumping off the bed with a "噌", Wei Changtian was startled by this sentence.

"What exactly happened?!"

"Young Master, don't worry, it's like this..."

"..."

The candlelight flickered, and the tent curtain swayed slightly.

After about a stick of incense, Zhang San repeated the whole story that Xu Quan had sent back.

After listening, Wei Changtian first breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Zhang San.

"Isn't this okay! What are you shouting about!"

"Uh..."

Zhang San embarrassedly scratched his head: "This humble one knows his mistake."

"Forget it, remember to be calm about everything in the future."

Wei Changtian waved his hand and ignored Zhang San. Instead, he took a robe and put it on, while pondering the matter in his mind.

White Crane Demon Queen.

Purple Holy Fruit.

Directly breaking through from the sixth rank to the fifth rank.

The whole thing might be very coincidental if it happened to someone else, but it's normal for it to happen to Xu Quan.

And this is also a good thing for me.

Huh?

Wouldn't this be considered "freeloading" on some of Xu Quan's opportunities?

It doesn't matter, I guess that Holy Fruit wouldn't be of much help to me.

However, Xu Quan successfully borrowed "demon soldiers" from the Fifth Demon Territory through this opportunity, which is a great achievement...

Thinking of this, Wei Changtian couldn't help but recall what Zhang San had just said.

"Young Master Xu used the Holy Fruit as a threat, causing the Demon Queen to agree to borrow 100,000 demons to attack Linchuan City."

"The Demon Queen will also return with Madam and Young Master Xu, and is expected to arrive in three days..."

That Demon Queen will return with Yang Liu Shi and Xu Quan, bringing demon soldiers...

Wei Changtian's expression stiffened, and he suddenly had a very strong feeling.

Damn it!

Won't this Demon Queen follow Xu Quan in the future?!

Is this the personal charm of the Son of Heaven?!?
