"Youngster, you've just come to the Dark Demon Forest, right?" A sturdy man in his thirties looked at Ling Han with a smile.

"Yes." Ling Han nodded. This could be seen at a glance, unlike other people who had a strong "earthy smell" on their bodies, which was caused by being exposed to the sun and dew at night in the forest.

The sturdy man snickered, stretched out his hand, and said, "Here, everything depends on a transaction. If you want to ask a question, you have to give them something in return."

"How much?" Ling Han asked indifferently. His wallet was now bulging again, so he was naturally indifferent to Origin Crystals.

"One Origin Crystal." The sturdy man raised a finger.

One question required one Origin Crystal.

Ling Han didn't mind. As long as he could find Crimson Red Chilling Ice Grass, he wouldn't feel heartache even if he had to pay a million Origin Crystals. He immediately took out an Origin Crystal and handed it over.

The sturdy man took the Origin Crystal and snickered.

"It's time to answer the question." Ling Han knocked on the table.

"All right." The sturdy man nodded, and said, "I don't know."

Ling Han's gaze immediately sharpened, and he said, "Are you messing with me?"

"Youngster, I'm teaching you a lesson. When you're outside, you have to be more careful. Don't trust people easily!" The sturdy man laughed loudly, not the slightest bit worried that Ling Han would make a move on him.

Because this was the territory of the Gale Demon Clan, if Ling Han dared to make a move here, he'd be chased out at best, or killed at worst. Otherwise, this place wouldn't have become a safe haven.

It was said that in a stronghold like this, there were even many vicious and wanted criminals who were chased by forces like the Winter Moon Sect and the Beast Emperor Sect, fleeing to this place. However, they didn't dare to make a move in the stronghold, which showed how deep the four great forces' tyranny was in people's hearts.

Ling Han took his arrogance into his eyes, and with a casual swipe, ten ginsengs instantly appeared on the table. Each root was as thick as a child's arm, and the roots were twisted like dragons.

Hiss!

When everyone saw it, they all stared with wide eyes. These were at least two or three hundred years old treasured ginsengs! There were such treasured ginsengs in the Dark Demon Forest, but they needed to go deep into the forest's core because it was too dangerous there. Usually, not to mention people entering, even demonic beasts were very rare, so there were a lot of spirit herbs, and their medicinal ages were astonishing.

Such treasured ginsengs could be sold for a few dozen Origin Crystals, which was definitely more than enough. Ten of them would be worth a few hundred Origin Crystals, which was a very large fortune. If Spiritual Ocean Tier warriors didn't steal or rob, they would need to spend dozens of years to refine them.

All of a sudden, everyone's breathing quickened and their eyes turned red, wanting nothing more than to snatch them.

Ling Han smiled faintly, pointed at the brawny man just now, and said, "Whoever kills him for me, these ginsengs will belong to him."

Instantly, everyone's eyes were fixed on that brawny man.

This person was only at the second layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, and for a late stage Spiritual Ocean Tier martial artist, killing him might not be as easy as flipping one's hand, but it wouldn't be too difficult either. Just lifting a finger and earning a few hundred Origin Crystals, where else could they find such a good business?

Moreover, what kind of great tonic was a hundred-year-old ginseng? Martial artists like them usually fought with humans and beasts, inevitably leaving behind internal injuries that normal healing medicinal pills couldn't touch. Only such a great tonic could completely heal them.

Such a treasure could only be encountered, not sought.

"Youngster, fighting isn't allowed in the stronghold," someone said.

Ling Han smiled, and said, "No matter, you guys just keep watch. Although I'll be leaving soon, I'll leave ten ginsengs with the stronghold master. Whoever kills him can go find the stronghold master to collect them. Now, everyone can be at ease, right? "

"Alright."

"Alright."

Everyone nodded. There were indeed people in the stronghold that would issue missions and ask for help, but if it was done through the Gust Demon Hall, it was inevitable that they'd get a cut. Thus, everyone hoped that the brawny man would leave the stronghold as soon as possible, quickly kill him, and then directly find Ling Han to collect the reward. This way, they wouldn't have to get a cut from the Gust Demon Hall.

The brawny man's face turned green. He didn't expect that he'd be tricked to death by Ling Han just because he cheated a piece of Origin Crystal. He hurriedly took out that piece of Origin Crystal and threw it at Ling Han as if it was a hot potato. "I don't want your Origin Crystal, quickly take back the reward."

Which family's second generation was this, actually wasting a treasured ginseng like this? Did your mother know you were so awesome?

Ling Han didn't catch it, and said, "Take it, you can just go order a good coffin."

The brawny man was so scared that he was about to cry. He only wanted to take advantage of Ling Han, but who would've thought that he would attract a fatal disaster? He hurriedly knelt down in front of Ling Han, and said, "Young Master, I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me."

"You really have to know your mistake," Ling Han said with a smile.

"I really have to know …" The brawny man continuously waved his hand and slapped himself. Each slap was very forceful, and even blood came out.

Ling Han nodded, and said, "All right, this reward is canceled."

Ling Han was indifferent, and said, "The reward just now is canceled, and replaced with a new one. Whoever can tell me where in the forest there is a place where cold and heat intersect, these ten treasured ginsengs will belong to him. "

"Really?" Everyone's expression changed back to one of pleasant surprise.

Ling Han nodded, and said, "Of course it's true. However, if anyone treats me like an idiot and randomly spits out a place, then I don't mind putting a reward on him."

Everyone sucked in their teeth. Just now, that brawny man only tricked Ling Han of a piece of Origin Crystal, and the latter took out ten treasured ginsengs to put a bounty on his head. If he tricked Ling Han of ten treasured ginsengs, then how much would the latter offer as a reward?

This kind of spoiled brat was really scary — rich, willful …

For a moment, everyone was silent. Some people wanted to fool him, but were scared stiff.

"Young Master, I know of a place that meets your requirements." After a while, someone spoke up. He mentioned a place in the northwestern part of the Dark Demon Forest, and even attached a map to Ling Han, indicating the location.

Ling Han inquired in detail, but was very disappointed, because that place was indeed intertwined with cold and heat, but it was far from what he wanted. However, he still gave the other ten treasured ginsengs to establish his credibility.

"Does anyone else know of such a place? One piece of information in exchange for ten treasured ginsengs." Ling Han waved his hand, and took out another ten hundred-year-old ginsengs. Anyways, these things were like cabbages to him.

Someone indeed received a reward, which instantly made the others excited. Even some onlookers were eager to give it a try.

It didn't matter if they didn't know, couldn't they go and find out?

"I'll stay here for two days. If there's any news, come find me." Ling Han threw down these words and left the restaurant, paying to rent a "guest room."

Cell phone reading was more refreshing.
