But to be honest, he didn't dare to tell this to his father, Cheng Tianqiu. If he told him, then his identity and plan would be exposed.
Cheng Zhongfan was so angry that he ran directly to Cheng Mengqiang's room and roared, "It's all your fault. I knew that Xiao Chen wouldn't let us go so easily! That kid has endured for many years. How can he be easily dismissed with this kind of temperament? Sure enough, something happened, right? "
"Ah? Dad, what's wrong? Xiao Chen is here again? Is he going to burn our house? " Cheng Mengqiang had been traumatized by Xiao Chen. His injuries hadn't healed yet. He was so scared that he jumped up from the bed.
"He hasn't come yet, but he asked me for 100 million. If I don't give it to him, he said he's coming!" Cheng Zhongfan glanced at his son and was very disdainful of his cowardly behavior. However, wasn't he the same when he thought about it? He was angry in his heart. "This little bastard, if we were in the sect, I would have killed him long ago. In the secular world, he still dares to shit on my head!"
"What should we do? Do we give it to him? "Cheng Mengqiang was a little worried. He still remembered the pain of being burned.
"I don't want to give it, but can we not give it?" Cheng Zhongfan's voice changed. "That guy is hiding in the dark now. He's a madman. He doesn't play by the rules at all!"
"How about we threaten him with the Xiao family?" Cheng Mengqiang rolled his eyes and suggested.
"Your suggestion can't be implemented at all. If we touch the Xiao family, he will definitely come back to destroy our Cheng family. At worst, we will die together. But we are porcelain. We can't touch him!" Cheng Zhongfan shook his head. "Our Cheng family has been working hard for many years to become a true martial arts family. I will eventually return to the sect. The Cheng family still has to operate here, unless you all give up and come with me."
"This …" Cheng Mengqiang was a little hesitant. He really couldn't bear to leave the Cheng family. He heard that the sect was full of ascetics. There was no glory, splendor, and wealth. He was greedy for the secular world.
"Alright, I'm just complaining. Just pass it on to him!" Cheng Zhongfan took a deep breath and waved his hand. "I'm going to transfer the money. You don't need to think about it."
"Yes …" Cheng Mengqiang heaved a sigh of relief. Spending money to avoid disaster was much better than provoking that lunatic Xiao Chen.
Looking at the notification that his account had been transferred, Xiao Chen's lips curled into a smile. Then, he turned around and returned to the Martial Artist Attack. Using an anonymous method, he transferred the money to the Martial Artist Guild's account.
"Alright, since the deposit has been paid, you can head to the Hakuna Mata Desert now. This is your calling token. Remember, whenever you crush the token, you'll be teleported back to the entrance of the teleportation circle. Also, this is the map of the Paoli Clan's cultivation city. You can follow the map when the time comes. " When the staff saw that Xiao Chen had transferred the money, his attitude became better. He enthusiastically said, "But remember, don't stay in the desert for too long. Although we didn't set a limit for how long you can stay, I still have to remind you of some things in advance!"
"Please speak!" Xiao Chen said with a solemn expression.
"The desert is a place where it is easy to get lost. The same environment, the same scenery, the sudden appearance of mirages, and the endless heat will make people lose their minds. If you really get lost, then you will be lost forever. It will be very difficult to wake up!" The staff looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Many people covet points. They keep searching in the desert and eventually get lost. There are many people like this. I hope you don't lose your heart!"
"Thank you, I understand!" Xiao Chen nodded and noted it down. However, he was wondering if his father would get lost. But it shouldn't be. His entire team disappeared, not just one person. If one person got lost, then the others should still be there. How could all of them get lost?
Xiao Chen shook his head and kept the jade token. Under the guidance of the staff, he arrived at the back of the Warrior Guild. At the back of the Warrior Guild, there was a place that looked like a shrine. However, upon closer inspection, it looked more like a strange mechanism!
In the middle of the main hall, there was a high platform. Under the staff's direction, Xiao Chen went up the platform.
"Alright, stand still and don't move. The transmission array is about to be activated!" The staff shouted and activated some unknown mechanism. Xiao Chen only saw a white light flash before his eyes. In the blink of an eye, he felt a burst of heat under his feet and a hot wind blew on his face.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a barren desert with no end in sight! Xiao Chen knew that he was already inside the Hakunamata Desert! If it weren't for Xia Zhili saying that there might be extraterrestrial ink meteorites here, Xiao Chen wouldn't have come here. 100 million, what could he not do with this money?
Moreover, his purpose here was to go to the Flame Mountain, not to the Bubble Li Clan! Fortunately, the desert was connected. He was only transmitted to the vicinity of the Bubble Li Clan's cultivation city ruins. As long as he didn't leave the desert, he should be able to reach the Flame Mountain.
He didn't intend to go out immediately. Only God knows how much deposit was needed to go to the ancient ruins of the Flame Mountain. He would look for it himself.
Of course, Xiao Chen didn't intend to wander around randomly. He didn't know whether this transmission array was a random transmission or a directional transmission. However, no matter what, he had to figure out his position.
Xiao Chen took out the GPS and the map given to him by the staff and started comparing them.
After looking for a long time, he discovered that his position was on the west side of the Bubble Li Clan's cultivation city ruins. Putting down the map, Xiao Chen looked around. How come there wasn't a single person here?
It stood to reason that there should be a lot of people who would accept such a high reward mission, right? However, although there were some doubts in his heart, Xiao Chen still moved forward towards the destination indicated on the map.
Looking at the desert under his feet and all around him, there was no end in sight. Xiao Chen suddenly felt a bit depressed. Looking for Spirit Stones in this kind of place, wasn't it more difficult than ascending to the heavens?
Now he finally figured it out. No wonder the Warrior Guild had collected 100 million as a deposit in advance. It seemed that they had already planned to scam him. Only a fool like him would spend so much money!
Moreover, he had seen a lot of desert-related missions on the big screen. He guessed that only this kind of unaccepted mission would be posted to the Warrior Guild headquarters in the secular world. Then, Xia Zhili saw it and asked him to come over.
Shaking his head, although that 100 million was not his own money, Xiao Chen still felt very distressed. He had been cheated! If he had known this would happen, he would have just applied for another mission and come over.
However, not long after, Xiao Chen quickly became excited, because he saw a shiny thing in the desert not far away!
Although he did not know what it was, Xiao Chen quickened his pace and walked over. Just as he squatted down, he was stopped by the voice of the Elder Heaven Ancestor!
"Don't move!" said the Elder Heaven Ancestor.
"Hm?" Xiao Chen was taken aback. "Elder Heaven Ancestor, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with it? "
"What's wrong with it? Elder Heaven Ancestor coldly snorted and said: "If I didn't say it, I'm afraid you would already be dead!"
"Dead?" Xiao Chen exclaimed in disbelief, his entire body shocked.
"Do you know what it is?" Elder Heaven Ancestor asked.
"This … It seems to be a spirit stone?" Although Xiao Chen had never seen a spirit stone before, this thing had a white luster and shined under the sunlight. Moreover, as he got closer, he could feel the faint fluctuation of spiritual energy. If this wasn't a spirit stone, then what was it?!
Xiao Chen did not think that he would be so lucky to see a spirit stone as soon as he came in.
"You really don't know anything. You didn't do any homework before coming here!" Elder Heaven Ancestor said coldly. "You watch from the side for a while, don't touch it. I won't say anything for now. Consider it a lesson for you, don't mess around in the future!"
"Ah …" Xiao Chen was a little confused, but he still followed the instructions of the Elder Heaven Ancestor and did not touch the spirit stone. Instead, he stood to the side and carefully looked at the spirit stone.
However, there was nothing special about this spirit stone. It looked very attractive … However, just when Xiao Chen was bored to death, the spirit stone actually moved!
Xiao Chen saw a row of legs and a long tail suddenly grow out of the spirit stone. Then, with a whooshing sound, it crawled forward …
"This … What is this thing? This spirit stone can run? "Xiao Chen's eyes widened as he looked at this shocking scene.
"Hmph, now you know how powerful it is?" Elder Heaven Ancestor's proud voice sounded: "This is called the Desert Parasitic Scorpion. It is highly toxic and relies on its bright appearance to confuse other creatures in the desert. Then, it will deal a fatal blow. If you get stung by it and get poisoned, I think you will die soon!"
"This …" Xiao Chen looked at the crawling little thing with lingering fear. His heart was aghast, but when he saw the spirit stone, he was not willing to give up. "Elder Heaven Ancestor, this thing …"
"Other martial cultivators naturally have no way of dealing with it. The Desert Parasitic Scorpion lives in the hot desert and has the protection of the spirit stone. Its shell is hard and its life is hard. Most people have no way of dealing with it. Therefore, most people would not be fooled into touching this spirit stone, because it is simply a joke!" After finishing, the Elder Heaven Ancestor changed the topic: "But the Samadhi True Fire is enough to burn this little thing to death!"
"Elder Heaven Ancestor, you scared me to death!" Xiao Chen threw out the Samadhi True Fire. In an instant, the Desert Parasitic Scorpion was surrounded by the Samadhi True Fire. After struggling for a bit, it turned into a wisp of green smoke. The stone also stopped moving. Other than a little black on the surface, it was completely unharmed!
Xiao Chen walked over and picked up the spirit stone. After wiping it clean, it was as good as new.
