For three days, Tan Xiu stayed in the prison and met with the prisoners. After learning about them, he finally drew up a list of 100 prisoners. However, after recalling Yuan Ye's request, he finally decided to pick some more. In any case, he had to make a big move this time. It didn't make much of a difference whether he picked 100 or 200 prisoners out of a prison of 1,000 or 2,000 prisoners.
The subsequent selection of prisoners was much faster. On the fifth day after he entered the prison, he had finalized a list of 200 prisoners.
In cell 000018, Tan Xiu read the list in his hand and then looked up. His eyes swept over Old Anji, Emily, Katu, and Saptanshu in the cell before finally landing on Zhang Xiaohua and lightly asked, "Have you thought it through? Do you want to go back with me? "
Zhang Xiaohua still looked as indifferent as ever. Even though he learned that Tan Xiu wanted to buy 200 prisoners from the prison, he was only a bit surprised. He gently raised his hand to push the frame of his glasses and calmly said, "There's no difference between going out and staying here for me. I've already gotten used to living here, so why should I go out? "
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment. He then shook his head and said, "It's really a pity that your heart is dead at such a young age. I won't force you since you don't want to go out. "
Zhang Xiaohua didn't speak again and his eyes fell back on the book in front of him.
A disdainful look appeared on Saptanshu's face and he shouted, "I think he's out of his mind, Boss. He doesn't enjoy the outside world and wants to stay here to suffer. I think he's just a fool."
A cold glint flashed in Zhang Xiaohua's eyes. A dazzling white light shot out from his fingers and instantly pierced Saptanshu's right shoulder.
"Ouch … My arm!"
Saptanshu screamed and instantly covered his shoulder with his left hand. He could clearly feel the stinging pain. He could no longer lift his right arm and even lost all feeling in his entire arm.
A glint flashed in Tan Xiu's eyes. He just sensed a True Essence fluctuation coming from Zhang Xiaohua.
Cultivators?
Tan Xiu narrowed his eyes and quickly grabbed Saptanshu's right arm. As his fingers moved, a sharp silver needle shot out from his right arm and was caught between Tan Xiu's fingers.
"Are you a martial cultivator?"
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Tan Xiu in surprise. He then smiled and said, "I didn't realize that you're also from Huaxia. Since he can even subdue specters, he should also be a cultivator. "
Tan Xiu took a step forward and appeared in front of Zhang Xiaohua in an instant. As his fingers suddenly extended toward Zhang Xiaohua, the two of them exchanged dozens of blows in an instant.
"Don't move."
Tan Xiu growled. When he finally sealed Zhang Xiaohua's arms, he pressed his fingers on his shoulder. As the Chaotic Energy surged into Zhang Xiaohua's body, Tan Xiu's eyes revealed a look of surprise.
"Golden Glaze Body? Half-step Golden Core? "
The moment Tan Xiu released Zhang Xiaohua's arms, he spat out this sentence with a solemn expression.
Zhang Xiaohua's expression suddenly changed. The moment his arms regained their ability to move, his figure flashed seven or eight meters away. With his back against the wall, he stared at Tan Xiu and said, "Who the hell are you? How can you see through my physique and strength? "
"I once met a guy with a Golden Glaze Body," said Tan Xiu. "But it's a pity that he died in the hands of some terrifying existence before he could grow up. As for your cultivation, it's just a joke in my opinion, even though you're only a step away from breaking through to the Golden Core Stage. "
Having said that …
A jade bottle appeared in Tan Xiu's hand out of thin air and he spoke again with a faint smile, "This is the Nascent Breaker Pill I refined. It's the best auxiliary pill for a Nascent Soul cultivator to break through to the Spirit Formation Stage. If you're willing to submit to me, leave this place with me and work for me in the future, this Nascent Breaker Pill is yours. "
Zhang Xiaohua was aghast. He stared at the jade bottle and his body slightly trembled. He hadn't even reached the Golden Core Stage, let alone the Nascent Soul Stage and the Spirit Formation Stage. But the appearance of this Nascent Breaker Pill still set off a huge wave inside his heart.
"Who the hell are you?"
Zhang Xiaohua struggled to move his eyes away from the jade bottle and looked at Tan Xiu.
"You don't need to know who I am," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "At least you don't need to know for now. You just need to know that it'll be easy for you to break through to the Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, or even the Spirit Formation Stage if you follow me. It's not impossible for you to ascend to the Immortal World in the future if you have the aptitude. "
"Ascend to the Immortal World?"
Zhang Xiaohua exclaimed in alarm and immediately shouted, "That's impossible. Who on Earth can ascend to the Immortal World? I don't think there's even a Nascent Soul cultivator, no? "
"That's your ignorance." Tan Xiu sneered. "I don't know who your Master is, but I can tell you clearly that there's nothing impossible in this world as long as I, Tan Xiu, am here."
Huff, huff …
Zhang Xiaohua's breathing turned a lot more rapid and numerous thoughts churned inside his mind. Although he had nothing to worry about now and was disheartened by the death of his last family member, Tang Xiu's description made him see a little bit of a goal, a hope that he could make progress.
After a long while …
Zhang Xiaohua took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "Last question. Why do you want to buy so many prisoners? "
"To form an army of cultivators," answered Tan Xiu.
Hiss …
Despite his tenacious mind, Zhang Xiaohua was still scared by Tan Xiu's answer. Forming an army of cultivators? What kind of joke was that? It was already extremely difficult for a cultivator to have a good cultivation level. How many resources would it take to form an army of cultivators? Even if all the resources on Earth were added up, it wouldn't be enough to provide for all the members of an army of cultivators, right?
"I'll go with you."
After Zhang Xiaohua spat out those words, his entire body instantly relaxed.
Tan Xiu paced a few steps forward and said in a deep voice, "If you want to go with me, your life must be under my control from today onwards. But I can give you a chance to regain your freedom. If your cultivation can reach the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage in this life, I'll give you your freedom. "
"A Perfected Golden Immortal?"
Zhang Xiaohua shook his head and let out a self-deprecating smile.
Perfected Golden Immortals were only existences in legends. At the very least, it was impossible for such a powerful Immortal to appear in this space. The promise made by this future Boss of his was really funny.
Late at night.
The electric iron gate of labor camp 1319 slowly opened as two bulletproof SUVs drove out from the inside. Tan Xiu, who was wearing a prison guard uniform, was sitting in the back seat of the second car with the prison's Deputy Warden, Gus Gilles, standing next to him.
"You've arranged everything?"
Gus Gilles felt restless and turned to look at Tan Xiu.
Tan Xiu nodded with a faint smile and said, "Don't worry! I think Spectre, Jin Shi, and Xue Sha can deal with Augustino's subordinates. They'll come out with Augustino in half an hour at most. On the other hand, I'm a little worried about whether the people you arranged will be able to successfully bring the prisoners out. "
"All the forged documents are stamped with Augustino's private and official seal," said Gus Gilles decisively. "Even the other powerful figures in the camp won't dare to stop them easily. Once we receive the news that Augustino has been taken out of labor camp 1319, my people will immediately bring the 200 prisoners out. But the money … "
Tan Xiu crooked his finger and said, "Give me the computer."
Gus Gilles handed the computer he had prepared earlier to Tan Xiu. After booting it up, he opened the transfer software and said, "I've told you my account number. You can absolutely take away all the people inside as long as I receive the money."
Tan Xiu let out a faint smile and quickly entered the account number. Then, he transferred 400 million dollars to Gus Gilles's Swiss bank account. After the transfer was successful, he closed the laptop and said, "The money has been transferred to your account. You can check it now."
Gus Gilles made a phone call and confirmed that the money had been transferred to his account. He immediately nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's been a pleasure working with you. But aren't you afraid of an accident by transferring the money to me before dealing with Augustino? "
"Do you dare to covet my money?" asked Tan Xiu with a smile.
Gus Gilles shuddered inwardly. He immediately shook his head and said, "To tell you the truth, I don't dare."
"Don't worry!" Tan Xiu chuckled. "Augustino is just an insignificant nobody in my opinion. If we have a good cooperation this time, I think we'll have many more chances to cooperate in the future. At the very least, your prison should have a lot of death quotas every year, right? If you take good care of those prisoners and reduce the number of abnormal deaths, this quota will be the basis of our deal. "
"I understand," said Gus Gilles without hesitation. * * *
Labor camp 1319, the Warden's lounge.
Augustino had already fallen asleep, and his very loyal ability user subordinate was quietly leaning against the door, drowsily. Nearby, there were also two of Augustino's trusted subordinates, who were holding guns and standing guard.
Puff! Puff!
With a flash of blood, two black shadows wrapped around the necks of the two strong men and silently reaped their lives. In the next moment, two dazzling sword lights tore the dark space and instantly appeared between the eyebrows and throat of the ability user.
"Enemy attack?"
The ability user's complexion drastically changed. Just as his figure suddenly dodged to the side, a big hand as hard as an iron clamp grabbed his neck. There was even a wind blade circling around that ability user's neck, constantly circling around.
"Who are you?"
Spectre let out a grim smile. He didn't answer the man's question at all and directly snapped his neck. As he threw the dead body to Jin Shi, who quickly rushed over, the wind blade easily cut the door open.
