"We want to see Xiao Qi." The old man didn't pay attention to Dean's words: "Hand him over or I'll make you die miserably!"
Dean didn't care about the old man's words. But the old man's accent was different from the common language of the giant wall but it wasn't difficult to understand. He calmly said: "I said you don't need to worry. Your Xiao Qi is in a very safe place. Of course, if something happens to me then he may not be safe."
"You dare to threaten me?!" The old man's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He took a step forward and the murderous intent rushed towards Dean like a tide. It seemed that as long as Dean said the word 'no' he would immediately attack!
The murderous intent was breathtaking and chilling.
But he quickly restored his calmness: "This is my bargaining chip. I hope we can talk peacefully. After all, our goal is the same. My goal is to destroy the inner wall and become the king here. You are from another giant wall. You came here to snatch the God's corpse. The people of the inner wall besieged you and made you lose a lot of people.
"Since we have the same goal why don't we sit down and talk?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at the stooped elder. This person was clearly their leader, the dominator rank expert.
The old man narrowed his eyes as he saw that Dean wasn't scared by him: "Talk to me? Do you think you are worthy? Do you really think that I won't dare to kill you because you have Xiao Qi in your hand? "
"You can take my life at any time." Dean calmly said: "I'm willing to use my life to exchange for your comrade. But I can tell you that if something happens to me then your comrade Xiao Qi will die. You don't need to think about capturing me to torture me. First of all, I don't know the specific location. Secondly, if I tell you the location then I will lose my bargaining chip and die without a doubt. Since that's the case, how could I possibly relent? "
He spoke very objectively and clearly. There was no fear in his expression. This was a negotiation where both sides had misgivings, and he was trying to find the initiative.
"Despicable brat!"
"Big Brother, let me kill him. Little Seven was actually captured. How shameful. It's better to let him die!"
"That's right, big brother, kill him!"
The others immediately called out.
Dean was shocked when he heard their words. His blood seemed to gush out a bit of cold air. Was his guess wrong? That black-robed youth was not an important member in their hearts?
Thinking of this, he glanced at the lion head beside him and prepared to activate the mechanism of the temple.
However, at the next moment, he suddenly felt alarmed. 'Wait, if they really want to kill me, they don't need to say so much. They could directly attack me. Any one of them could easily kill me. After all, I'm just a pioneer. Additionally, some of them are perceptive pioneers, so they could probably sense my real strength.'
Could it be that he was trying to trick her?
'No, they might be asking the leader. After all, the price of doing so is to sacrifice one of their members.'
His heart was cold again, but he still held a glimmer of hope, waiting for the old man to give a response.
"OK!" The hunchbacked old man didn't even blink. His gaze was cold as he said, "I wanted Seven to stay here just in case, but since he is so useless, he deserves to die. You shall be buried with Seven. I will kill everyone here!" After that, he lifted his foot. His footsteps were light, but with each step, the killing intent of his body rose a bit. By the time he reached the stairs in front of Dean, the killing intent had filled the entire Temple, making it difficult for people to breathe.
Dean's face was slightly pale. Although he had prepared a backup plan, it was still very difficult to escape from the hands of a dominator and five inner desolate level powerhouses. This was a gamble for him, but now he had bet on the wrong person!
His heart was beating like crazy. He hadn't felt this kind of crisis for a long time. But this time, he knew that no one could help him, and there was no possibility of a miracle. Even if the wall lord suddenly came back and killed all the intruders, he would also be killed in the blink of an eye. He could only rely on himself, he could only fight with everything he had!
"In that case, let's die together!" Dean fiercely gritted his teeth. His face showed a trace of ferociousness. He was forced to a dead end. There was only killing intent and strong hatred left in his heart!
He didn't know what he hated. Perhaps it was the invaders in front of him, or perhaps it was the people of the inner wall, or perhaps it was his powerless and weak self, or perhaps it was the fate that didn't care about him … At this moment, killing intent and hatred intertwined. He was ready to fight to the death!
Just when he was ready to fight to the death, the stooped old man suddenly stopped. The killing intent in his eyes slowly converged. He deeply looked at Dean. From the previous expression of Dean, the old man knew that the worst situation would appear if he continued to force it. So he could only stop. But in this way, their cards would be exposed in front of Dean.
Thinking of this, the killing intent in his heart was restrained.
Dean saw that the old man suddenly converged his killing intent. The idea of activating the mechanism immediately stopped. His eyes changed, and he said coldly, "Don't you want to kill me? Why don't you do it? Are you afraid of an ordinary pioneer like me? "
The stooped old man coldly said, "Although Little Seven is useless, your cheap life is not enough to exchange for him. I will let you live for a few more breaths."
Hearing the old man's words, Dean was relieved. It seemed that they deliberately blackmailed him. Fortunately, he didn't surrender, so they failed.
And the price of this failure was to expose their trump cards.
He had to say that they had a lot of options, but they chose the most risky one. Since their cards were obviously in the hands of others, it was undoubtedly the worst idea to use intimidation to find out the enemy's flaws.
"No wonder a Sovereign and eight Inner Desolate Realm experts ended up in such a sorry state after fighting over a divine casket." Dean despised their IQ, but he didn't relax his vigilance. After all, this might be the reason why they despised him. If it were other pioneers, they would inevitably be afraid. If it weren't for the fact that he had experienced too many life and death situations, most of them would have surrendered or turned around to escape.
"Since you want to talk to me, I hope you can keep your mouth clean. I don't want to talk to a dog." Dean sat back in his seat. At this moment, he had the upper hand. Not only was it a test, but it also strengthened his confidence and power. However, he couldn't push them too far.
The stooped old man's eyes narrowed, and a slight killing intent flashed through his eyes. But he still endured it. He moved to the chair next to him and sat down. He said in a cold voice, "You will release Little Seven if we kill all the masters in the inner wall?"
"Yes." Dean nodded.
"Well, what if you go back on your words?" The burly man next to him looked at Dean.
Dean glanced at him and said, "If I go back on my words, it means that I can't hand over your Little Seven. Then what reason do you have not to kill me?"
The burly man's face turned red as he heard the rhetorical question. Indeed, if Dean couldn't hand over Little Seven then he would die. No excuse could save his life.
"We have to take a look at Little Seven to determine his safety." The graceful woman said to Dean.
Dean indifferently said: "Impossible. We have spent a lot of effort to catch your Little Seven. How can we let you meet him? Wouldn't it be the same as giving my head to you?"
The graceful woman was about to open her mouth, but the stooped old man raised his hand to stop her. He stared at Dean: "Aren't you afraid that we will kill all the masters in the inner wall? Then we will pick up Little Seven and then kill you?"
Dean had expected such a question: "Of course I am afraid. So after I confirm that you have killed all the masters in the inner wall I will let my people send Little Seven to you. I will hide for a period of time. I believe that all of you have come from the other giant wall and don't want to stay in this strange land. After all, if the wall lord comes back then none of you will be able to escape."
"What a cunning boy!" The stooped old man thought. Dean's method was indeed feasible. If he hid then they might not be able to find him for a while. After all, this was the opponent's home ground and the geographical environment was familiar. Moreover the opponent didn't need to hide inside the giant wall as he could hide in a large area outside the giant wall. It was almost impossible to find Dean in this vast area with their speed. The only way was to wait for him but it would double the danger for them.
"In that case, how can we be sure that you will fulfill your promise?" The stooped old man stared at Dean: "If you hide and don't return Little Seven then we won't be able to do anything to you."
Dean shook his head and sighed: "If I don't return Little Seven to you then wouldn't it be the same as tying you tigers to the same cage as me?"
The stooped old man's face changed as he heard this.
The graceful woman, the burly man and the others had a big reaction. Their faces changed on the spot, and they looked at Dean in anger.
Dean deliberately spoke vaguely as he didn't directly point out his own guess. But through the reaction of several people he knew that his guess was right. Little Seven was an important part of their return!
Moreover from his previous words he had probed that these people didn't come from the Kingdom of God but from the other giant wall!
This information was of great significance to him. After all, these were two different natures. If they came from the Kingdom of God then it meant that the giant wall of Sylvia has been secretly suppressed by the Kingdom of God. In the future it would definitely be a place of trouble. It was a good idea to leave as soon as possible. If they came from other giant wall then there would be a lot of problems and information. But at this moment there was no need to repeat them one by one.
"You!" The burly man clenched his fists as he stared at Dean: "What did you do to Little Seven? What did he say to you?"
The old man's face was gloomy. He knew that even if Xiao Qi didn't say anything, their performance was enough for Dean to get the answer. In this way, the other side was holding their lifeline. They had almost no advantage in this negotiation. Even if they were powerful and could easily pinch Dean to death like an ant, but at this moment, the other side was the master. He could control the lives of all of them!
"I have said what I have to say." Dean calmed down: "Kill all the masters of the inner wall and then leave the giant wall. I will return Little Seven to you. After all I want the dominion of the giant wall and you want the God's coffin. This is a win-win deal. Speaking of this I am a bit curious. What do you want the God's coffin for? Can you tell me?"
"In your dreams!" The burly man stared at Dean.
The stooped old man narrowed his eyes as he stared at Dean: "Don't you know the role of God's corpse?"
"What is the role of a corpse? Is it worth for you to come all the way here to snatch it?" Dean showed a more interested expression: "If you are willing, you might as well tell me about it."
"Aren't you a member of the Devil family?" The stooped old man asked.
"If I was then I would have been removed a long time ago." Dean asked: "So the secret of the God's corpse is only known by the Devil family?"
The stooped old man looked at him for a moment but didn't say anything. He signaled the fatty to release Riley: "If you don't hand over Little Seven after I finish my business then the consequences will be more serious than you can imagine."
He spoke in a calm tone but the killing intent in his voice was chilling.
Dean felt the strong murderous intent hidden in his weather-beaten eyes. He nodded slightly: "I won't let you down. I hope you won't let me down. We have talked for so long but I haven't asked your names yet."
"I don't need to know your names." The stooped old man turned and left.
"Well, you are going to die anyway." The burly man sneered as he caught up with the old man.
"It's interesting that there are traitors who collude with foreign enemies …"
No longer reluctant to stay, they glanced at Dean with a disdainful expression and turned to leave.
Dean quietly looked at their backs as they left the Temple. He looked at Riley: "Inform Neuss of the second base. Tell him to come back and manage the affairs here. I'm going to the inner wall."
