As he stood in the empty courtyard, Su Ming's gaze fell on the tightly shut door of the second house. He walked towards the door without any hesitation and pushed it open.
The instant the door was pushed open, Su Ming heard a muffled growl. Soon after, a green figure lifted his arms and charged towards him. A presence that exuded a murderous aura of death came crashing into his face.
A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes, but his expression remained the same. He had dared to destroy this person's plans when his level of cultivation was not as high as this person's. Now that his level of cultivation was much higher than this person's, and the person was still weakened. It was night time as well. There was no way Su Ming would be afraid. The moment the green figure closed in, Su Ming lifted his right foot and stomped on the ground!
The 160 blood veins on his body erupted forth and turned into a strong pressure. He did not retreat. With that pressure alone, he forced his way towards the green figure.
The green figure was shaken by Su Ming's Qi and collapsed. It turned into green sparkles that spread out, causing the originally dark room to be illuminated by the green light.
Wu Sen's hair was a mess and his face was pale. He sat cross-legged in the house and glared at Su Ming. Blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth. It was clear that the moment Su Ming closed in, he had forcefully cast a Berserker Art. Yet this Art could not do anything to Su Ming. Instead, when the Berserker Art was broken, Wu Sen was injured.
"Mo Su!" Wu Sen's eyes were filled with unwillingness and madness as he growled.
Su Ming's expression was calm. He did not mind Wu Sen's madness. He walked into the house and looked at Wu Sen coldly when he was a few dozen feet away from him.
"Looks like you're really weak. Even the followers who provided you with the blood at the center of your brows are nowhere to be seen," Su Ming said slowly. His voice was neither fast nor slow.
Veins popped up on Wu Sen's face. There was also anguish on his face. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he was immediately shocked. He could only hear the sound, but he could not feel any presence of Qi. It was as if the door had opened on its own without anyone pushing it.
However, he felt a clear sense of danger, especially when the door to the house he was in was pushed open. That feeling instantly reached its peak, and only then did he cast his Berserker Art without caring about anything else. However, his Berserker Art failed. Just as he was about to rush out of the house, he saw the face of the person outside the door.
After he saw who it was, he gave up on rushing out, because the person who had arrived was Mo Su. It was the Mo Su that he was extremely suspicious of, but did not dare to provoke!
Being on the same level as Ye Wang had allowed him to personally witness what it meant to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. Facing such a blazing sun, Wu Sen could only feel bitter. However, Wu Sen was not stupid. On the contrary, he was extremely intelligent. He could vaguely guess the purpose of the other party's visit, but he did not dare to believe it.
"You stole my Corpse Qi Origin Blood, causing me to weaken at every moment. With my status and the pressure I've exerted on them in the past, once they find out that I'm weak, it won't do me any good!" Wu Sen closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes once again, the veins on his face had disappeared, and his expression had returned to normal.
When Su Ming saw how Wu Sen recovered so quickly and how he no longer had the anger and unwillingness to admit defeat, how he did not hide anything in his words, and how he spoke about how weak he was, it made Su Ming admire this person slightly.
"I have offended you greatly regarding what happened before. I hope you won't mind, brother Mo." As Wu Sen spoke, he stood up and bowed towards Su Ming.
Su Ming's expression remained the same, but his impression of Wu Sen had become much deeper. He looked at Wu Sen, and Wu Sen looked back at him. The two of them stared at each other for a long time before Su Ming suddenly smiled.
"It does save me a lot of trouble when I'm dealing with smart people. Name your price."
Wu Sen forced down his excitement. He had long since lost the desire to cause trouble for Su Ming. In his mind, he no longer had the right to do so. His level of cultivation was not as high as Su Ming's, and his reputation was also not as great. Based on his analysis, there was a high possibility that Su Ming would soon be taken in by the Elder and be trained in Wind Stream Tribe. He did not want to continue being enemies with this sort of person.
His only hope now was to retrieve his Blood of Corpses so that he could recover his power as soon as possible. After all, the second stage of the test would be tomorrow. This was incredibly important to him.
"Brother Mo, what do you want? I only have one Berserker Vessel, but it's a gift from the elder to my Berserker Art. I can't use it to trade … "Wu Sen hesitated for a moment before he spoke. To him, the Blood of Corpses was much more important than the Berserker Vessel, but he did not dare use it to trade. After all, all Berserker Vessels belonged to the tribe, not to him.
"I don't want a Berserker Vessel. Let's trade with stone coins. 5,000 stone coins, and I'll give this to you!" As Su Ming spoke, he took out the small bottle from his bosom. The moonlight threads on the bottle disappeared the moment he touched it. No one saw it.
Wu Sen's heart pounded against his chest as he stared at the small bottle. Yet when he heard Su Ming's words, he smiled bitterly.
"Brother Mo, I … I only have 3,000 stone coins …"
Su Ming did not speak. He only looked at Wu Sen quietly. After a while, he placed the small bottle back into his bosom without a word and spoke slowly.
"If that's the case, then you can come and find me when you have enough stone coins."
Wu Sen immediately became anxious. If he could get his hands on the Blood of Corpses tonight, then he would still have hope the next day. If he could not get it today, then his chances in the second stage would plummet.
Besides, he did not know how to find this mysterious Mo Su. If he left, then even if he had enough stone coins, it would still be difficult for him to get his Blood of Corpses back.
"Wait … Brother Mo, what do you think? Wait here for a while. I'll go gather the stone coins now. I'll definitely come back in at most two hours. Can … can you wait for me for two hours?" Wu Sen quickly said.
Su Ming frowned. He cast a glance at Wu Sen, then ignored him and turned around to leave. It was impossible for him to wait here like an idiot. It did not matter whether Wu Sen had other thoughts or not. Su Ming would still be cautious.
"Brother Mo, wait! I really only have 3,300 stone coins. How about this? I'll add this as well. What do you think? " Wu Sen panicked. He quickly took a few steps forward, then gritted his teeth and brought out a wooden box from a corner of the house.
He was reluctant to part with the box right before Su Ming's eyes. He opened the box and saw a purple Seven Leaf Grass in the wooden box.
The leaves were very strange. Each leaf had seven branches, and they were arranged in an orderly fashion. At first glance, it was hard not to feel that the leaves were in a mess.
"This Seven Hearts Grass is incredibly rare. I obtained it by accident. It's worth thousands of stone coins!" Wu Sen looked at Su Ming and handed the item over.
The moment Su Ming saw the herb, his heart immediately raced. Once he took it over, he looked at it carefully and was certain that it was one of the two herbs he had never seen before in the creation of South Asunder!
Without batting an eyelid, Su Ming closed the wooden box and looked at Wu Sen as if he was hesitating.
Wu Sen was incredibly nervous. After a long while, when he saw Su Ming nod his head, he could not hide the excitement on his face. He quickly brought out enough white stone coins that were worth 100 stone coins and placed them into a bag before handing it over to Su Ming respectfully.
Su Ming checked it. Once he was certain that there were no mistakes, he brought out the small bottle and handed it over to Wu Sen.
"Your Blood of Corpses is very valuable. Don't lose it again." Su Ming looked at him profoundly before he turned around and walked out of the room. He sank into the moonlight and disappeared into the darkness.
Wu Sen held onto the small bottle and watched Su Ming leave. His expression kept changing. After a long while, he let out a long sigh and completely gave up on the idea of causing trouble for Su Ming.
In the lodgings of Dark Mountain Tribe, Su Ming looked at the 30 something white stone coins in his hands. He was filled with excitement. He had never had so much money before. As he looked at the stone coins that were glowing with a white light, Su Ming could not help but pick them up one by one and look at them continuously. The feeling of obtaining such a large amount of money was almost the same as when he was the center of attention.
His pockets were almost empty, but now he had so many stone coins. It made Su Ming feel as if he was rich. After all, this was the most money he had right now.
'If Lei Chen knew that I had so many stone coins, he would definitely be dumbfounded and in disbelief.' A hint of pride appeared on Su Ming's face. More importantly, he felt as if he had obtained this large amount of money for free. He did not have to pay too much for it. This was completely different from the time he sold a Scattering Dust for 100 stone coins.
'Wu Sen is still rich. As the prodigy of Wind Stream Tribe, it's understandable that he would have so much money. But after the trade with me, he probably won't have much left.' Su Ming did not believe that Wu Sen only had so many stone coins, but he believed that there should not be much left.
Su Ming had already thought about the consequences. First of all, his level of cultivation had to be higher than Wu Sen's. That way, even if he ran into Mo Su during the day, it would not be a problem. More importantly, Wu Sen did not know that Mo Su was Su Ming, so he would not be able to find him. If that was the case, then as long as Su Ming's identity was not exposed, he would be safe.
Also, whether Wu Sen would dare to cause trouble for him was a problem. There was even a possibility that Wu Sen would endure it and not provoke him. After all, Wu Sen was not an idiot. He knew when to advance and when to retreat.
