The condition that Xia Pingan had just proposed was a condition that the Judgment Army might accept after thinking about it for an entire night.
If he had reported all the Holy Springs from the One-Sun Realm to the Nine-Sun Realm plus a few hundred thousand gold coins, which would make the Judgment Army feel the pinch, this deal would not have been possible.
If he had reported too little, it would not match the value of this information.
A member of the Blood Demon Church hidden in Shangjing City in exchange for a few Holy Springs and 20,000 gold coins. Xia Pingan believed that the higher-ups would want to try this price after they knew about it. Even if they were cheated in the end, the loss would not be great.
Lan Wuwei was not an idiot. He was in charge of contacting Xia Pingan in the Shadow Squad, which also proved his ability.
When Xia Pingan mentioned the Illusory Child and the information related to the crown prince and the Blood Demon Church, a thought flashed through Lan Wuwei's mind. Could it be that Xia Pingan had integrated with the Illusory Child's realm pearl and then …
However, this thought only flashed through his mind and was immediately rejected by Lan Wuwei.
Even if Xia Pingan had integrated with the Illusory Child's realm pearl, there was an expert beside the crown prince, and the Illusory Child could not get close to him. Furthermore, the crown prince should have arrived in the underground city a few days ago. At that time, Xia Pingan had not obtained the Illusory Child's realm pearl. Therefore, this information could not have been discovered by Xia Pingan …
Furthermore, even if Xia Pingan could summon the Illusory Child, the Illusory Child did not have the ability to actively identify the identity of a member of the Blood Demon Church. Xia Pingan could not have immediately found a member of the Blood Demon Church after integrating with the realm pearl.
If a member of the Blood Demon Church could be found so easily, there would definitely be no place for them in the entire Shangjing City.
In summary, the information that Xia Pingan brought was of great value and had to be taken seriously.
"The resources required for the condition you just mentioned have already exceeded the upper limit of the resources I can mobilize with my authority. I also have those Holy Springs in my pawnshop. I have to ask my superiors for advice!" Lan Wuwei said immediately.
"Okay!" Xia Pingan nodded.
"If the higher-ups agree, how will the exchange be carried out?"
"Give me the item, and I'll give it to that person. That person will tell me the information, and I'll send the information back!"
"You'll be the middleman?"
"Yes, that person doesn't seem to want to have direct contact with the Judgement Army. I guess it's because I'm too weak, so he's more at ease with me."
"How do you find that person?"
"I can't find him. As long as I leave this place, he will come and find me!"
"Wait here for a moment …" After Lan Wuwei finished speaking, he left the room through the secret passage, leaving Xia Pingan in the room.
Xia Pingan waited patiently in the room.
…
After leaving the Xiang room, Lan Wuwei came to his study through the secret passage. He took out a brush and ink and wrote quickly. Soon, he had written a piece of paper, rolled it up, and put it in a small bamboo tube.
After doing this, Lan Wuwei pushed open the window of the study. Mist flashed in his hand, and a dark green egg was summoned. In the blink of an eye, the egg broke open, and a dark green bird came out of the egg. It stood on his palm and jumped around. The dark green bird ate the eggshell, and its body grew in the wind. It became the size of a sparrow. Its whole body was dark green, and it was very agile.
Lan Wuwei picked up the small bamboo tube in his hand. The dark green bird swallowed the small bamboo tube and flapped its wings, making a slight buzzing sound. With a buzz, it flew out of the window of the study as fast as lightning and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After leaving the study, Lan Wuwei continued to the front hall of the pawnshop.
More than forty minutes later, a customer came to the Fearless House. That customer said that he wanted to pawn his family heirloom. Lan Wuwei led the customer to another secret room. Less than a minute after the customer left, Lan Wuwei appeared in the Xiang room again and saw Xia Pingan.
Lan Wuwei moved his hand and a small wooden box appeared in his hand. He placed the box on the table in front of Xia Pingan.
"Everything is here!"
Xia Pingan opened the box and took a look. There were four bottles of different radiance in the box. The contents of the four bottles were the Holy Spring from the One-Sun Realm to the Four-Sun Realm. In addition to these four bottles, there were twenty gold notes with a face value of one thousand each in the alley.
Xia Pingan nodded and put the box into his spatial warehouse.
"After that person takes the items and completes the transaction, I'll come to you again …"
"You can tell that person that the Blood Demon Church is our mortal enemy. We don't care who he is or how he obtained the information. As long as the information he provides is accurate and can help us eliminate the members of the Blood Demon Church hiding in Shang Jing City and the Great Shang Nation, we can continue this transaction in the future!"
"Okay!" Xia Pingan nodded and put on his wig again. After fixing his beard, he left the secret room.
Twenty thousand gold coins and four Holy Springs were in his hands!
As long as he grasped the key information and could make use of the situation reasonably, everything was that simple. The wealth and resources that ordinary people could not hope to obtain in their lifetime came just like that.
Xia Pingan walked out of the Fearless House and came to the alley outside. Everything was normal in the alley. There were not many people. Only the entrance of the brothel with red lanterns hanging in the distance was still lively.
This was not a transaction between the mysterious person and the Judgement Army, but between Xia Pingan and the Judgement Army.
The Judgement Army had become Xia Pingan's information channel.
Was the transaction completed?
Of course not!
If everything was so easy and the transaction was completed, it would be an insult to the ability of the Judgement Army and the intelligence of the big shots above.
A mysterious person who knew the whereabouts of His Highness the Crown Prince and the secrets of the Shang Nation, as well as the hidden members of the Blood Demon Church in Shang Jing City. It was impossible for the big shots not to dig that person out.
Although the item was in his hands, he could not use it now.
Although everything was normal and Xia Pingan did not find anything unusual, Xia Pingan knew that he must have been targeted by the experts of the Judgement Army.
Xia Pingan walked to the other side of the box just like how he came. However, with a thought, the lively and cute Child of Fortune wearing a red dudou suddenly appeared beside him.
The Child of Fortune first jumped onto Xia Pingan's shoulder and looked around. In the next second, the Child of Fortune's figure flashed and disappeared from Xia Pingan's shoulder. The Child of Fortune jumped into the shadow of a park not far from the alley. He sat on a person's head in the shadow of the void and pointed below his butt.
There was nothing under the Child of Fortune's butt. There was no one at all, but Xia Pingan's heart jumped slightly. He knew that the Child of Fortune had found a person who could be invisible.
Invisibility without any aura. This ability was too abnormal.
Xia Pingan continued to walk outside.
In the next second, the Child of Fortune jumped up from the ground and appeared in the sky. Xia Pingan's perspective suddenly appeared in the sky.
A gray goshawk was hovering in the sky thousands of meters above the ground. Its sharp eyes looked down at the city below. The Child of Fortune was riding on the back of the gray goshawk. He once again pointed at the head of the gray goshawk. It was also following him.
Such goshawks could be seen in the sky of Shang Jing City at any time. Moreover, there were a lot of them. They would not attract attention at all.
When Xia Pingan walked out of the Hundred Spirits Alley, the Child of Fortune jumped onto the back of an unremarkable warrior on the street. That warrior was about 300 meters away from Xia Pingan. He was hanging on the street, following Xia Pingan from afar.
Wherever Xia Pingan went, the downtrodden warrior would follow. The transparent person without any aura would also follow. The grey goshawk in the sky would also fly high above.
If it wasn't for the Child of Fortune, Xia Pingan would not have noticed that he was being watched by so many pairs of eyes.
In the night, Xia Pingan was like a vagrant. He walked through half of Shang Jing City on his feet. After a few hours, he finally arrived at the southern outskirts of Shang Jing City, where there were not many people. He crawled under a bridge and skillfully found a shelter from the wind. He picked up a dirty and tattered quilt from the ground and covered himself with it. Then, he fell asleep.
It was very normal for a wanted criminal who could not expose his identity to become a vagrant and sleep under a bridge.
As for those pairs of eyes staring at him, let them stare.
Xia Pingan was a vagrant under the bridge for two days. On the morning of the third day, Xia Pingan once again came to the Fearless House.
In the same secret room, Xia Pingan took out the wooden box that Lan Wuwei gave him two days ago and placed it in front of Lan Wuwei.
"Everything is inside. It hasn't been touched!"
"What do you mean? Did you not complete the deal?" Lan Wuwei asked with a frown.
"As I said before, that person probably doesn't want to deal with the Judgement Army, so he chose to use me to make a deal with the Judgement Army because my strength is low, which makes people feel at ease. It has already been two days, and that person hasn't appeared again. But this morning, I suddenly heard a voice in my ear. That person said that he didn't like the three pairs of eyes staring at me, so this deal is off. It seems that the higher-ups don't trust me and sent people to follow me to find that person. The people sent by the higher-ups were probably discovered by that person, so I really can't complete this deal. If that person thinks that I'm plotting against him, wouldn't I be courting death? Please find someone else!" Xia Pingan's expression was cold.
Lan Wuwei was obviously flustered. He hurriedly stopped Xia Pingan and said, "Don't be agitated, don't be agitated. I really didn't know that someone was following you. It's probably an arrangement made by the higher-ups out of concern for your safety. Wait here for a moment, I'll go and confirm it!"
Xia Pingan waited in the room. After more than half an hour, Lan Wuwei came in again with a guilty look. "Ahem, ahem, the higher-ups have withdrawn all the people protecting you. They won't send people to follow you anymore. This time, that person should be able to make a deal with you without any worries …"
