"There is no one called Dark Blade here." The beauty standing at the wine counter smiled politely: "There is a type of wine called Dark Night Temptation, do you want a cup?"
"Ask him to come out, now!" Yue Yang grabbed another gold coin and placed it on the counter.
"There is really no such person … … I also want to earn your gold coins, but I'm sorry." The beauty returned the gesture.
"My patience is limited." Yue Yang's gaze was very serious.
"Customer, I'm sorry, please allow me to serve you!" A half-bald old man stood at the side. He reached out his hand and patted the beauty's shoulder, hinting for her to leave as soon as possible. Then, he took over her original position and asked with a face full of smiles: "Dear customer, she is new here and doesn't know anything. If you want to ask for news of Dark Blade, I will tell you a piece of unfortunate news. Dark Blade is already dead. "
"How did he die?" Yue Yang asked.
"A month ago, Dark Blade received news of a secret treasure. He told his best friend, but who knew that his best friend betrayed him and secretly spread the news of the secret treasure. A strong mercenary group found Dark Blade and escorted him to the location of the secret treasure. Along the way, they met even more adventurers. It turned out that his greedy friend sold the news to a few mercenary groups. In the end, before they could get the secret treasure, a few mercenary groups started to fight, and in the end, they even lured the strong Dragon Hunters. The Dragon Hunters took advantage of the fact that both sides were injured and captured them in one fell swoop. Including Dark Blade and his friends, everyone was annihilated. As for the news of the secret treasure, because of Dark Blade's death, no one knows anymore … … "The half-bald old man sighed:" Many people think that this is a conspiracy deliberately spread by the Dragon Hunters. They deceived Dark Blade and let him bring the news back. In the end, it caused the mercenary groups that coveted the secret treasure to fight, and they took the opportunity to take advantage of it. "
"Is it really like that?" Yue Yang smiled faintly.
"This matter, everyone in the Pagoda Ancient City knows about it. At that time, our Silver Horn Mercenary Group also had a meeting, but the leader felt that there was something fishy about it and gave up on the treasure hunt. Later on, it was proven that it was indeed so." The half-bald old man's words were very convincing. The events, process, and contradictions were almost impeccable, but Yue Yang did not believe a word of it.
The closer the description was to the truth, the more fake it was.
There was no need to read detective novels to know this. Just by watching TV, one would know that a guy who looked like a good guy on the surface was definitely a bad guy.
Of course, Yue Yang believed that the main reason why the half-bald old man lied to him was because of his senses. As a powerful Innate Ranker, his senses were extremely sharp. Yue Yang already knew that this old man was going to spout a bunch of lies before he even opened his mouth.
On the other hand, the Outsider beauty didn't dare to speak casually because she wasn't used to lying. She was afraid that Yue Yang would see through her lies and expose her.
Her clumsiness was in stark contrast to the old man's slickness.
If Dark Blade was really dead, this old man shouldn't be sighing. Instead, he should be happy, a kind of gloating happiness. Then, he would brag about it vividly and make this topic the laughingstock of the tavern.
Therefore, the calmer this old man acted, the more abnormal the matter was.
"Is Dark Blade really dead?" Yue Yang finally asked.
"The one who collected his body was my nephew. Although Dark Blade wasn't my friend, he never owed me money for drinks. In fact, he was a good customer." The half-bald old man pretended to bemoan the state of the universe and pity the fate of mankind. He did not know that in the world of the Hua Xia Dynasty, there was a character in a novel called Yue Buqun. This character told the readers not to easily trust others, especially a species called 'gentleman'.
"Let him come back to life and appear in front of me as soon as possible." Yue Yang took out another gold coin and placed it in front of the half-bald old man.
"But he's really dead …" The half-bald old man's gaze turned slightly cold. He didn't expect that after talking for so long, the other party still wasn't moved and stubbornly believed that Dark Blade was still alive.
"In ten minutes, if he doesn't appear, I will burn down this tavern." Yue Yang said as if it was a matter of course.
"Brat, are you looking for death?"
Behind Yue Yang, a tall and sturdy man with a round waist stood. He patted Yue Yang's shoulder with his big, furry hands and shouted sternly, "Get the hell out of here right now! Don't ever appear in Tower Gu ever again! Otherwise, I will beat your dog legs! Why don't you ask around, is this a place where you can behave atrociously? Even if Captain Taurus isn't here, this friend of his will not let others behave atrociously in his territory! "
The customers in the tavern also denounced Yue Yang along with the burly man.
One by one, they stood up and began cursing loudly.
Some were even prepared to roll up their sleeves and rush forward to beat up Yue Yang.
The half-bald old man hurriedly pretended to be a good person. "Everyone, don't be angry. It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! Thank you everyone for your praise of our Silver Bull Horn. But we open a tavern to do business, not to cause trouble, but to make a fortune. Everyone, calm down. Come come come, serve wine to the customers. This round is on me. " Turning around, he smiled at Yue Yang. "This esteemed customer, please don't be angry. We understand that you are anxious to find Dark Blade, but he is really dead. If you don't believe me, I can get someone to bring you to see his grave. Everyone here can also prove that Dark Blade has already been dead for half a month. His corpse has already rotted! "
The customers laughed loudly. "Idiot, only coming to look for treasures now. If there were really treasures, would we still be waiting for a fool like you?"
Another person mocked, "Luckily he came late. Otherwise, if he met the Dragon Hunters, he would probably pee his pants on the spot … Boasting shamelessly, a mere Level Six Elder wants to behave atrociously here. Do you want me to die of laughter?"
Standing behind Yue Yang was a tall and sturdy bear clan man with a loud and clear voice. He was overjoyed: "Did you guys hear that? Just now, when he said that he would burn this Silver Bull Horn Tavern, he almost scared me to death! This brat must not have woken up yet. Even in his dreams, he would never have thought that this Silver Horn Tavern was actually opened by the strongest Innate Ranker, the Ox Tribe Warrior, Silver Horn. Brat, you want to behave atrociously in the Innate Ranker's territory? Are you even an Innate Ranker? Why, did you pee your pants in fright? Touch your crotch. Little bird, don't be scared. Is it still there? Ahahaha! "
"Boring."
Yue Yang shook his head.
He casually threw a punch behind him, nonchalantly.
It was as if a bored friend of the tavern was chasing away a fly.
Although the burly man from the Bear Tribe was laughing wildly, he was already prepared. He reacted in an instant. His huge fist retaliated with an explosive force, smashing towards Yue Yang's back. He knew that a fight was inevitable. Although he was laughing arrogantly on the surface, he was secretly on guard. Seeing that it was real, he immediately counterattacked.
It wasn't just him. The other customers also felt that under such ridicule, even if the masked brat had a good temper, he wouldn't be able to take it. All of them held their cups and watched the show.
Some of them were even prepared to give the masked brat a flying kick after the man from the Bear Tribe defeated him to vent their anger.
Just when everyone was prepared to see Yue Yang suffer, the situation changed beyond their expectations.
The moment the huge fist smashed into Yue Yang's back.
Yue Yang's hand hit the chin of the man from the Bear Tribe one-tenth of a second earlier …
Immediately, the bear tribe man shot up into the sky like a rocket. His huge body shot straight to the roof, smashing through the second floor with a boom, then smashing through the third and fourth floor, as well as the roof of the fifth floor, flying dozens of meters into the sky. Ten seconds later, the man from the Bear Tribe fell down. He fell back into the hole he had created and accurately landed in front of Yue Yang.
The wooden floor on the ground was completely shattered. Wood chips flew everywhere.
The entire Silver Horn Tavern was shaking. The windows were broken, and the mud and dust were rustling down.
The customers who were squatting on the long benches to watch the show were all turned into clay puppets. Many of them poured the wine in their hands onto their chests or pants, but they didn't notice it at all.
Everyone's eyes were wide open, just like toads that had been stepped on … Even though the truth was right in front of their eyes, they couldn't believe that it was true. A Level 7 Advanced Overlord was sent flying by a Level 6 Beginner [Elder] with a single punch, and even fainted on the spot. Was this even possible? If it was the other way around, it wouldn't be possible.
That half-bald old man was so scared that he shivered. He quietly hid in the wine cabinet and prepared to sneak away.
"Come out and lead the way. If I can't see Dark Blade in ten minutes, I can guarantee that this Silver Horn Tavern and everyone here will evaporate in the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower." Yue Yang knocked on the counter, scaring the half-bald old man into sticking his head out.
"Bang!" The half-bald old man was so flustered that his head hit the edge of the cabinet. He didn't dare to cry out in pain and quickly led the way.
Five minutes later, Yue Yang finally saw Dark Blade.
He was a skinny thief with an extremely ordinary appearance. If he was thrown into the crowd, it would be like throwing a grain of sand into a sandpit. He would definitely not be found. Of course, his looks weren't enough to be a celebrity, but to be a thief, his looks were practically a cheat code. People like thieves and assassins didn't need to be handsome. The more ordinary they were, the more battle power they could unleash, and the higher their chances of survival.
There were a few other people standing with Dark Blade. There were three men of different races, two dwarves, a half-naked Ox-head Warrior with a golden belt, and a skinny old scholar.
The half-bald old man introduced these people. They were the leader of the Taurus Mercenary Group, Taurus, the think-tank Sage Ba Gu, and the five core members of the elite group.
Yue Yang only glanced at the leader of the Taurus Mercenary Group.
This guy had the strength of a Lesser Innate, but it was difficult for him to enter Yue Yang's eyes. The skinny scholar Sage Ba Gu, on the other hand, was sized up by Yue Yang. This old fellow was also a Lesser Innate, but his brain structure was different from the leader of the Taurus Mercenary Group. It was worth Yue Yang looking at him for a second more. The two dwarves were Level 7 [Overlord], but they were probably very strong. The axes they were holding were actually made of black gold. Of course, Yue Yang was curious about them because he had never seen dwarves before.
The three men of different races were Wolf Tribe Warriors with bulging muscles. They were extremely tall, and they didn't wear shoes. Their sharp claws extended out. It seemed like they were agile warriors who were good at running.
"This is Dark Blade …" The half-bald old man first introduced the thief to Yue Yang, then bowed to the leader of the Taurus Mercenary Group: "I'm sorry, leader, I really couldn't stop this esteemed guest."
"It's alright, it's good to have one more person join the treasure hunt." The leader of the Taurus Mercenary Group signaled the skinny thief to come forward: "Tell this friend about the situation first, maybe we can cooperate. The Evil Dragon Lair isn't something that we, the Taurus Mercenary Group, can set our sights on. We need more helpers, but they must be friends who are sincere in searching for treasures. "
"Is this how you treat a friend who is sincere in searching for treasures?" Yue Yang didn't look at the thief. Instead, he walked to the front of a Wolf Tribe Warrior: "You are the real Dark Blade, right?"
Yue Yang's words shocked everyone.
Even Sage Ba Gu, who was originally calm and collected, looked at Yue Yang in shock, as if he wanted to get to know this masked man again.
