In truth, when the black-robed old man appeared, Chu Chen felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It was as if he had seen this old man and this voice somewhere before. However, he couldn't recall where he had seen him before.
When the black-robed old man steered the boat to the bank of the River Styx and revealed his signature treacherous smile, a thought suddenly flashed through Chu Chen's mind.
Duan Xiong! This black-robed old man, one of the top ten evil experts who had steered the boat across the River Styx, was actually the guide that Chu Chen had met when he first entered the Flaming Pit Secret Realm, the super profiteer who was trying his best to scam people out of their money!
When the top ten experts opened the Yin Mountain Secret Realm, they were all shrouded in thick black demonic Qi. Most of their faces were hidden in the darkness, so Chu Chen didn't recognize him. Now that he was in front of everyone, Chu Chen recognized him at first glance when he revealed his greedy, profiteering look.
After all, the old fatty with unfathomable cultivation had left a deep impression on him. There were very few people like him who were greedy to the point of making one's hair stand on end despite having such a strong cultivation.
This guy … this guy was actually one of the top ten evil experts? He actually had such a background and background?
Chu Chen was thoroughly shocked.
Duan Xiong's fat face carried the standard smile of a profiteer. He steered the boat unhurriedly across the River Styx and arrived at the bank.
Seeing that this mysterious top ten evil experts had indeed come specially to guide them across the river, all the evil cultivators were in an uproar.
"This is great! This senior is really here to guide us across the river!"
"Senior is so benevolent! Not only did you painstakingly open the Yin Mountain Secret Realm, but you also came to help us when we couldn't cross the river. You're truly a blessing to the younger generation of the evil path! "
"Senior, you're …"
Seeing the evil cultivators praising Duan Xiong so much that they were almost praising him as a savior, Chu Chen's mouth twitched slightly.
He knew this fatty all too well. With his personality, he definitely wouldn't let people cross the river for free. He would probably make a huge profit.
Unexpectedly, Duan Xiong, who came to the shore, turned a blind eye to the compliments of the people around him. His gaze quickly scanned the crowd as soon as he came up, as if he was deliberately looking for something.
Chu Chen was slightly surprised. Could it be that this fatty recognized me?
However, Chu Chen quickly dismissed that thought. of it.
Now that he appeared in front of everyone in the form of an eagle clone, his aura and energy fluctuations were as different as heaven and earth..... Duan Xiong's spiritual sense, no matter how sharp his spiritual perception was, there was no way he could discover him.
Duan Xiong frowned slightly and quickly swept his gaze over the crowd.
When his gaze landed on Chu Chen, his eyes suddenly lit up. This scene made Chu Chen's heart clench slightly.
"Hey, little girl, your bird looks pretty good. Give it to me. I'll send you across the River Styx." Duan Xiong tried his best to squeeze out a friendly smile on his chubby face, but his slightly squinted triangular eyes seemed to be harboring evil intentions no matter how one looked at it.
Ling Xuan was expressionless. Her face that was as cold as a thousand-year-old ice did not have the slightest bit of expression. Even her eyes were like a piece of black ice, without the slightest ripple. She completely ignored the old man's words.
"Hehe, little girl, you don't know, right? My boat isn't for just anyone." Duan Xiong's temper was very good. He wasn't angry at Ling Xuan's complete disregard of him. Instead, he chuckled and said, "If you want to ride my boat, everyone has to pay me at least 30 million mid-grade spirit stones. Not a single one less!"
Heh, here it comes!
Chu Chen's lips curled up slightly. This old fatty who only cared about money didn't disappoint him. He wouldn't miss out on any opportunity to make money.
However, after hearing his words, the surrounding evil cultivators all frowned.
Thirty million mid-grade spirit stones was equivalent to three hundred million ordinary spirit stones. This was a sky-high price even for the elites of the Corrupt Path.
Seeing the stunned expressions on everyone's faces, Duan Xiong's lips curled up slightly. He waved his hand at Ling Xuan and said, "No matter how expensive a bird is, it's not worth 300 million spirit stones, little girl. This time, I'll give you a chance to use this bird to offset the cost of the boat. Just this once. "
After hearing Duan Xiong's words, Ling Xuan didn't have any reaction. The surrounding cultivators were already discussing with envy.
"300 million spirit stones, this price is really …"
"Bullshit, do you think 300 million spirit stones is more important than your life? With that much money, you can directly take the boat and cross the river safely. If you don't have the money, you'll just lose your life in the River Styx! "
"That's true, but 300 million spirit stones is really too … Even with our status, we can't easily take it out."
"I'm really envious of that little girl. Her pet was actually chosen by this powerful senior. 300 million spirit stones for a bird, heh … This is really a good deal. "
Seeing that most of the people's gazes were focused on her, Ling Xuan's gaze became even colder. She frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "I'm not riding your boat."
Eh?
Everyone was slightly stunned. This little girl is actually unwilling? That's 300 million spirit stones! She can use a pet bird to exchange for a chance, and she doesn't want it? This girl is too stupid!
Duan Xiong's face also revealed a trace of surprise. He glanced at Ling Xuan indifferently and suddenly laughed. "Hehe … Little girl, you should think about it carefully. You've seen how difficult it is to cross the River Styx. Don't miss this opportunity. "
"Yeah, this is an exchange worth 300 million spirit stones. This little girl actually doesn't agree. She really doesn't know how to behave."
"In the end, she's still young. She doesn't know how to lower her head. With her competitive spirit, she missed a good opportunity."
"Sigh, if I had known, I would've raised a silver eagle as a pet. That's 300 million spirit stones …"
… …
Sighs sounded from the surroundings. Ling Xuan simply closed her eyes and ignored the heated discussion around her.
Seeing this, Duan Xiong could only helplessly shake his head and wave his hand at the crowd. "Alright, I'm sure you all heard what I said just now. The boat fee is 300 million spirit stones per person. If you want to board, come over. If you have money, pay up. If you don't, sign a contract. I'll ask you for it in the future. "
Everyone's eyelids twitched violently.
Lowering your head, you let go of such a good opportunity because of your competitive spirit. "
"Sigh, if I had known, I would've raised a silver eagle as a pet. That's 300 million spirit stones …"
… …
Sighs sounded from the surroundings. Ling Xuan simply closed her eyes and ignored the heated discussion around her.
Seeing this, Duan Xiong could only helplessly shake his head and wave his hand at the crowd. "Alright, I'm sure you all heard what I said just now. The boat fee is 300 million spirit stones per person. If you want to board, come over. If you have money, pay up. If you don't, sign a contract. I'll ask you for it in the future. "
