Chapter 688 Treasure House

Xue Qinghe's reputation for loving his people like his own children had long spread from the imperial capital throughout the empire. Huo Rui believed that if she wrote a letter of denunciation in her name, the other party would definitely take action to deal with those guys who were inconvenient for her to deal with, whether it was to maintain their image or to win her over.

However, although Huo Rui had already decided to write a letter of complaint, in order to prevent these guys from doing anything desperate, Huo Rui still pretended to be calm on the surface, as if she was waiting for someone.

Soon, a Soul Emperor with the best soul ring ratio surrounding his body stepped into the scene.

However, there were only six soul rings. After he saw Huo Rui's eight soul rings, he seemed to wilt instantly. He quickly put away his own soul rings, not wanting Huo Rui to think that he was provoking her.

When he walked forward and saw Huo Rui's appearance clearly, he was shocked.

"Isn't this Count Tianxin who became a Contra and caused a lot of controversy some time ago? Why did she come to my territory?"

The visitor then took another look at the obvious damage, and when he noticed that his son had been beaten so badly, he did not feel any heartache, but became more and more panicked.

Family members know their own business, and he knows very well what kind of person his son is.

"Damn it, this rebellious son couldn't have flirted with Count Tianxin, right? How am I going to end this? Are you going to use him as a sacrifice? Although this rebellious son is not a good person, he is the one with the best cultivation aptitude among my descendants. This concerns the future of our family. What should I do!"

At this time, the local city lord was sweating profusely on his forehead. Humiliating the strong is a taboo in the extraordinary world. Huo Rui was very considerate of him by not taking his life directly.

But it was obvious that Huo Rui was too lazy to play along with this group of scumbags at the scene, so she spoke directly in a cold voice.

"You should be the local city lord, right? Tell me, what kind of explanation are you going to give me?"

The city lord was used to bullying in this small place, so he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say for a while. In the end, he could only lower his head and bow.

"We were wrong this time. Lord Tianxin, please feel free to ask for any conditions you want. I will definitely meet them as long as they are met. I only ask that Lord Tianxin spare my son's life."

Huo Rui didn't care about the other party's apology or compensation, so she just wanted to ask for 10 gold soul coins and leave. But the moment Huo Rui opened her mouth, Ye Wen pulled the corner of Huo Rui's clothes.

Huo Rui-_-?

"What's wrong, Xiaowen?"

Ye Wenshi saw Huo Rui lower her head, and then whispered a few words to her.

Huo Rui nodded instantly with shining eyes, and then reorganized her conditions.

"Since you said you want to compensate me, I have two conditions.

First of all, as a Soul Douluo, your brat actually dared to insult me ​​with foul language. I ask for 10 gold soul coins, right? "

"Not too much, not too much." The city lord nodded repeatedly.

However, although this city is much richer and more prosperous than Nottingham, it can only be regarded as a remote small town after all. 10 gold soul coins are the tax revenue of the entire city for several years.

The more he thought about it, the more heartbroken the city lord felt, but he quickly adjusted his attitude.

It's just a little loss of money. There are plenty of ways to make it back. After Earl Tianxin leaves, I will add some other taxes. After all, as long as those untouchables are not starving to death, they will be like leeks, which will grow again after being cut.

And Huo Rui's second condition made the city lord feel as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit.

“My second condition is that I must pick two treasures from your family treasury.

After all, money is just a thing for people of our class. What is truly valuable are those treasures. I don’t think you will refuse me.”

As she spoke, Huo Rui's originally restrained aura burst out again, allowing the city lord to feel the terrifying power of the Soul Douluo.

Things had come to this point, and the high and mighty city lord had no choice but to lower his proud head and accept Huo Rui's compensation conditions.

However, the city lord was grinning evilly in his heart. There were some treasures in the family treasury, but the most precious ones were hidden in his own secret room and would definitely not be discovered by anyone.

It just hurts so much that two more treasures were looted.

It was precisely because of this psychological preparation that the city lord took Ye Wen and his party back to the family residence without hesitation.

As for the rebellious son who dared to tease Huo Rui, there were many healing soul masters on the scene, so the city lord was directly sent away.

However, as he walked, the city lord also secretly glanced at Ye Wen. He realized that the reason why he lost two more treasures was most likely the work of this brat.

Ah, I hate it so much. If only my unfilial son could be this smart instead of just indulging in women all day long!

Soon Ye Wen and his party were brought to the city lord's family treasury.

As soon as you enter the door, what catches your eye are all kinds of golden soul coins, which are truly dazzling.

However, the value of the gold soul coin is just so-so in the hands of high-level soul masters. The truly valuable ones are those high-level soul guides or soul bones that don’t have the luster of treasures. Those are treasures that can be sold for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of gold soul coins at an auction house.

But it was obvious that there was no possibility of soul bones in the treasure house of this remote family, let alone being displayed in the open. Ye Wen and his companions had been prepared for this.

However, from the very beginning, Ye Wen’s goal was not soul bones, but various soul guides.

"Grandma, let's go in and take a look." Ye Wen said softly.

Although Huo Rui's cultivation is high, the Huo family's foundation is obviously weaker than the city lord's family of this remote town, so Huo Rui was also very interested when she entered the treasury.

But the country nobility is the country nobility.

In this treasure house, only a few storage soul guides are of some value. The others are really not to Huo Rui's liking, so Huo Rui said directly to Ye Wen.

"There's nothing good here. Xiaowen, you can pick one yourself. You and Yu'er can each get one."

Ye Wen nodded, but Huo Yuer said directly, "Let you choose by yourself, Awen. I am not interested in these things."

It's so funny. As the supreme god king with complete memories of his past life, how could Huo Yuer be interested in these pieces of junk? She only accompanied Ye Wen here because he was interested in her.

However, in Ye Wen's opinion, Huo Yuer was expressing her love to him from the bottom of her heart, which made him even more moved.

Damn it, I'm going further and further down the path of lolita!

But it is really hard for Ye Wen not to be moved by such a little loli whose heart and eyes are full of him!

"Yu'er, thank you. When I become stronger in the future, I will definitely find more good treasures for you." Ye Wen said with emotion.

Huo Yuer was also moved, and a shy blush appeared on her face. "Well, I'll wait for you."

This beautiful scene made the city lord who was paying compensation at the side feel as uncomfortable as if he had killed him. Damn it! If you want compensation, just take it and get out. Why do you have to feed me dog food? ?
