"Times have changed. We didn't expect this place to be so dangerous. Many of our preparations went to waste. I'm sure the Alliance Royals didn't expect this either, right?"
The white-haired old man did not get angry. With his hands behind his back, he said indifferently, "Now that the variables have increased, if we fight on our own, we will end up with nothing. If we are not careful, we might even fall here."
The mercenary lady frowned and after some hesitation, she sighed, "But how are you going to work together? How are you going to split the loot? "
"After the Demon Condor drinks the blood, it will open the door. You can take 60% of the loot and we will only take 40%. How about that?"
The old man had a plan in mind and he said sincerely.
The mercenary lady was surprised and she looked at the old man in surprise, "That's it?"
"No, I have an additional condition. I want him!"
The old man pointed at Ding Yu who was still gesticulating like he was possessed.
The mercenary lady's pupils shrunk and she shook her head firmly, "No, that man is ours!"
"You …."
The old man was enraged and he said coldly, "Princess Helena, don't push your luck."
"You can take 60% and we will take 40%. That man belongs to us."
Helena remained unfazed as she replied in a calm voice.
"The man belongs to us and we only want 20% of the loot. You can have the 80%!"
The old man took a deep breath and said while suppressing the anger in his heart.
Helena was tempted and after some thought, she nodded, "Deal. But you will have to clean up the unsightly people."
The Daoist frowned and when he was about to say something, he was stopped by Helena with a shake of her head.
"Isn't that a little inappropriate?"
The Caucasian old man glanced over at Tian Xuanzi and frowned as he said in fear.
"Then let's do it the other way around. We want the man and he will be in charge of cleaning up the place. We will only take 20% of the loot!"
Helena said calmly but she was sneering in her heart. She knew very well how difficult it was to deal with Tian Xuanzi. She only said that because she wanted to make a concession.
She was sure that the Wind God would take the bait. Unlike the Imperial Alliance, the Descendants of God Organization's desire for useful people was far greater than their desire for treasures.
Although the Wind God was not young anymore, he had only started his career a few years ago. Thus, he didn't know that the old man in front of him was Tian Xuanzi, the man who once turned the western Martial World upside down.
The Wind God glanced at Helena in bewilderment. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, and said, "Alright, we'll take 20%. We'll be responsible for clearing the area, and the person will belong to us!"
"This … Alright, since Lord Wind God is so sincere, then it's a deal."
Helena smiled happily and when she thought about how the Descendants of God Organization would go up against Tian Xuanzi, no matter who won or lost, the Royal Family Alliance would be the final winner.
The Wind God frowned as he couldn't figure out what this woman from the Royal Family Alliance was thinking. But since they had already reached an agreement, there was no turning back. This time, the Descendants of God Organization sent out two Celestial Qi Practitioners and a King Kong. He didn't believe that they couldn't deal with this old man.
Though they spoke softly, Tian Xuanzi heard them loud and clear and he was enraged. It seemed like he had been too low profile for the past twenty years. These western brats really forgot about the pain after their wounds were healed. He hadn't even gone to look for trouble with them and they were already trying to harm him.
Even if his grandma could tolerate it, his uncle couldn't. Tian Xuanzi pretended to be ignorant but he was secretly waiting for the Wind God to make his move. Then, he would teach them an unforgettable lesson.
Krong!
The Wind God was also a strong-willed man. Although he noticed that Helena's smile didn't seem to be friendly, he wouldn't go back on his words since they had already reached an agreement. He signaled the middle-aged lady with his eyes and just as they were about to surround Tian Xuanzi, a sudden change occurred. As a strong aura spread out, a loud clap of thunder caused them to look up in shock.
At this moment, the statue was shining with a flickering luster, emitting a terrifying aura that made people's hearts palpitate. Ding Ning, who had been gesturing something, was sent flying backward by this terrifying aura. He fell out of the square and into the distant fog, disappearing without a trace.
In the gray fog, the rumbling of thunder could be heard and terrifying lightning bolts danced around the square. It was as if doomsday had arrived and the ground outside of the square was bombarded by the lightning bolts.
"Haha, this man is dead for sure. But, you can't blame me. Wind God, you won't go back on your words, will you?"
Helena was indeed an ambitious and ruthless woman. Even in the face of this terrifying heavenly might, she was still able to chuckle with schadenfreude.
The Wind God's face turned green and he clenched his fists tightly. He glanced at Helena and his lips moved for a long time but no words came out.
I've miscalculated! I didn't expect the statue to be so strong that it could blast that man away and even summon a sea of lightning.
When he thought about the plan he proposed, he felt disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly. But he couldn't bring himself to go back on his words. He humphed coldly and said, "I don't have the habit of going back on my words!"
"That's good, that's good. I knew that the Wind God is a man of his words. Sigh, the Royal Family Alliance is really lucky this time."
Helena laughed even more happily and she even patted her chest exaggeratedly. Her happy expression made the veins on the Wind God's forehead bulge and he turned his head away, ignoring her.
The Rain God silently glanced at Helena but didn't say a word. He seemed to be following the Wind God's lead.
Along with that sudden clap of thunder, the martial artists who were killing each other were also awakened. Their bloodthirsty and ruthless eyes quickly regained clarity and they all stopped fighting. They looked at each other in dismay and saw the horror in each other's eyes.
"Amitabha, I've sinned, I've sinned!"
The little monk from the Hidden Sky Temple chanted the name of Buddha. He had a compassionate expression on his face as he sat cross-legged among the corpses on the ground. He put his palms together and softly chanted the Rebirth Mantra to release the souls of the dead.
Zhu Gu frowned and looked in the direction that Ding Ning had disappeared. Looking at the sea of lightning that filled the sky, a complex expression appeared on his face for the first time. He couldn't believe that his mortal enemy had died like this. But the truth was right in front of him. No one could escape from this terrifying sea of lightning.
The Vajra King and Rachel looked at each other and saw the bitterness and determination in each other's eyes. Although they were well aware of each other's feelings, they could still pretend to be ignorant and enjoy the rare moment of warmth together. But now that their camps had been divided, there was no reason for them to stay together anymore, so they returned to their respective camps.
The determined young man looked at the ground full of broken limbs and flesh and smelled the strong smell of blood. His face couldn't help but turn pale. He suppressed the churning in his stomach and walked to a clean and deserted corner. He closed his eyes and said nothing. It seemed that he was adjusting his mood after the massacre.
The dark and thin Indian monk also chose a deserted place and stared blankly at the raging sea of lightning in the distance. No one knew what he was thinking.
There were about a hundred surviving mercenaries. Ruhr was lucky enough to survive. He led the mercenaries to Helena's back, took out some medicine, and started to treat her wounds.
There were also dozens of ordinary people who looked like ordinary people who walked behind the Wind God and the beautiful middle-aged woman and revealed their identities.
Jiang Wuhui also stopped hiding. He brought the awakened Yan Tong and Green Bamboo and walked to Tian Xuanzi's side with a shameful expression. He bowed and stood beside Tian Xuanzi after Tian Xuanzi waved his hand nonchalantly.
After the little monk was done, he looked around and walked to Tian Xuanzi. He bowed respectfully with his palms pressed together, "Greetings, Senior Tian Xuanzi!"
Tian Xuanzi looked at him with praise and nodded, "Not bad, little guy. How is your teacher?"
"My teacher is fine, thank you for your concern!"
Wu Xiang answered respectfully.
Putting aside the small talk between the two, after eliminating those who were not strong enough, everyone's position was clear for the first time.
Other than the saber wielding young man, the dark and thin monk, and Zhu Gu who were lone wolves, the others were divided into three camps.
On the surface, the Alliance of Imperials had the most people and was the strongest; the Descendants of God was second; and the Divine Continent ancient martial artists led by Tian Xuanzi had the least number of people and were the weakest.
But in reality, be it the Alliance of Imperials or the Descendants of God, none of them dared to underestimate Tian Xuanzi and the others.
Especially after Diamond King revealed Tian Xuanzi's identity, Wind God's intestines turned green with regret. He looked at Helena with anger and hatred in his eyes. This despicable woman! How dare she set him up to provoke Tian Xuanzi!
Although he had already reached an agreement with Helena, he changed his mind after knowing Tian Xuanzi's identity. Even if he had to go back on his word, he would never provoke Tian Xuanzi.
It was not that he was afraid of Tian Xuanzi, but Tian Xuanzi's identity was just too special. The Tianji Pavilion was aloof from worldly affairs, they never meddled in the Jianghu but they were not a sect that would be bullied by anyone. He was here to earn money for the organization, not to cause trouble for the organization.
Furthermore, the situation had changed and the situation had far exceeded everyone's expectations. Of course, he didn't want to cause any trouble.
Helena was not in the mood to argue with him. Although the Alliance of Imperials was wealthy and had many Jianghu experts under their command, they still did not have the power to go against the Tianji Pavilion. If they continued to fan the flames and angered Tian Xuanzi, the Alliance of Imperials and the Descendants of God, they would be in danger.
As for the agreement, it was just empty words. In the face of profit, all promises were worthless. In the end, strength was the only thing that mattered.
Thus, Helena was very frustrated. This was not the first time the Alliance of Imperials and the Descendants of God had entered this place. Although they had lost quite a number of people in the past few times, they still managed to figure out the rules of this place.
As long as they used the blood sacrifice, they would be able to enter the Outer Mausoleum's underground palace and survive the armored monster's attack for a certain amount of time. After that, the door of the central palace would open automatically and they would be transported to the Golem Square. As long as someone was able to learn the Demonic Runes, those with weak willpower would lose their minds and kill each other. After the golem absorbed the blood, the second door would open automatically.
The reason why the Alliance of Imperials wanted to rope in the Kravitz Family was because the Kravitz Family was an archaeologist family on the surface, but they were actually tomb raiding and artifact trading. With their professional knowledge of tomb raiding, they might be able to play a role in the treasure hunt. Secondly, they wanted to use the Kravitz Family's name to avoid exposing the Alliance of Imperials. Thirdly, they wanted to use the Kravitz Family's mercenaries and archaeologists as blood sacrifices to open the door.
But now, it seemed like everything had undergone an unknown change. The underground palace of the outer mausoleum had been blown up and automatically activated the second layer of the tactical formation. Although they had successfully arrived at the Magic Statue Square, now that the magic statue was enraged, no one dared to say if it would automatically open the second door like last time.
