"Scum, but I don't hate him. Every man for himself, right? Hehe, let him go and let him fend for himself, "the merchant said with a smile.
The merchant said with a smile. The two strong men who were holding Raas down slowly let go of him. Raas lay on the ground weakly. With a ding, the merchant threw his wallet in front of him.
"Let's go, we have a big deal."
When he heard this, he hurriedly got up and said to the merchant's back, "I've told you everything, where's the ten thousand dollars?"
Hearing this, the four bodyguards turned around in surprise. This young man's greed was far beyond their imagination. They didn't expect him to dare to ask for money in this situation. He was really someone who valued money more than his life.
The merchant slowly turned around and looked at the young man with contempt.
"You still want money? Heh, think about it carefully. "
After a cold snort, he left with his men without looking back, leaving Raas alone on the ground.
But soon, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile. He wiped the dirt off his face, picked up the money on the ground and stood up.
Although he was still young and hadn't seen much of the world, to every resident of Stone, the merchant was the stranger they were most familiar with. Therefore, Raas knew that this group of suspicious merchants had a strange characteristic, which was that they would often be suspicious of things that were easily known, but if it was through some small channels that were not easy to obtain, they would often believe it without a doubt.
Moreover, not many people would believe the information that came out of a young man's mouth so easily. But if it was a big merchant who used special methods to pry information out of a young man's mouth, then no one would doubt it.
The Demon King, who was far away in the forest, saw all of this. He couldn't help but admire the young man's courage and strategy. He was a useful talent who dared to use such a method to solve his problem.
The Demon King smiled. With a little training, he would definitely be an outstanding person.
The big merchant hurriedly returned. Although the merchants pretended not to care, they were all secretly observing. They all knew that the big merchant began to pack his things as soon as he returned. He only stayed for a day and hurriedly left with his convoy the next day.
It was unknown which bodyguard leaked the news, but some merchants knew about the tunnel and the trading city. Of course, they also knew that there was a need for slaves.
Thus, a large number of merchants left the City of Trade.
The earlier the news was known, the more valuable it was. Four or five days after the first batch of merchants left, almost all of the merchants knew about this.
However, it was already too late. If they took action now, they would only be able to drink the leftover soup. However, since there were benefits, the merchants would take action.
At this moment, a new force started by bandits was slowly developing in the ancient city of Stone. They plundered a large portion of the ancient city's inheritance and recruited soldiers and horses. Soon, they built a camp on a mountain at the border between Stone and the Liska Empire.
They had an obvious characteristic, which was that they would wear a scarf embroidered with an eagle around their neck. They called themselves the Eagle Regiment, and under the banner of opposing Kalis' oppression of the people, they expanded.
The leader of the Eagle Regiment was called Balor. He had a valiant and battle-ready team. Moreover, in the eyes of his subordinates, he was very strategic and had defeated the Liska Empire's army many times. Perhaps it was because of this that this person called Balor began to pay attention to the temporary market outside the ancient city of Stone. If they could control that place, then their profits would be much more than robbing. Moreover, it would be like an endless river. It was simply an inexhaustible gold mine.
Balor was very wary of the men in black from Akas, so he sent out a spy to investigate and find out more about them.
This spy definitely could not be like a thief. He could not attract the attention of the men in black and be able to secretly infiltrate the enemy's ranks.
Very quickly, Balor chose his ideal candidate. An original resident of the ancient city of Stone, a youth who was not even 16 years old. Yi Qi. Why him? Coincidence, everything was a coincidence. When he sneaked to the temporary market, he was accidentally caught by Balor's subordinates …
At this moment, a youth dressed in rags appeared in the temporary market. He was holding the items he had picked up from the ruins. As usual, he was exchanging them for money with the merchants while looking for Raas and Selina. However, he had been here for a few days and had not seen the two of them. He had started to feel disheartened.
However, at this moment, he noticed that the merchants' movements were a little strange. Out of curiosity, he also went over to take a look. In the end, he discovered that his close friend, Raas, had actually been secretly taken away by four strong men.
Thus, he secretly followed them.
"I sold my sister."
Raas' voice came from not far away. Yi Qi's eyes widened, his face full of shock. However, very quickly, a haze appeared, and he finally left.
…
At this moment, a long convoy of carriages arrived at the bustling Ufa Great Forest. This was the convoy that the Demon King had sent out without any guards. Now that it had returned safe and sound, Hala felt that it was very inconceivable.
Furthermore, she discovered that the convoy was actually full of things. However, they were all strange instruments and a huge gem.
What did Master want these things for?
Hala could not understand. The things that Master wanted were often not things that a little demon like her could understand. This was also the reason why Hala worshipped the Demon King.
Just as she was counting the goods unloaded from the carriage, a woman in white alighted. Hala could not help but frown when she saw the other party.
"Why are you here?"
The Empress stretched and took a breath of fresh air, then said slowly, "Why can't I be here?"
Hala did not want to pay attention to the other party, but the Empress' attitude made her somewhat unhappy. She then raised her head and put her right hand on her waist, asking, "Does Master know that you've returned? I heard that your mission was to help Master guard his new territory, but I did not receive any news that you would return. "
Hearing this, the Empress' expression changed. She then snorted and crossed her arms in front of her chest, saying, "So what if he knows? So what if he doesn't? I can come and go as I wish. What can he do about it?"
"Ah! Master, why are you here? "
Hala suddenly said. The Empress was so frightened that she immediately unclasped her hands and hurriedly looked around. Where was the Demon King's shadow? This damned rabbit was playing with her!
The Empress frowned and glared at Hala, who was covering her mouth and snickering, "You! You dare lie to me? Do you think I won't tie you up? "
"Ah! Master! You're here. "
Hala suddenly looked behind the Empress with a serious expression, then lowered her head.
"Hmph, you still want to lie to me? Do you think I'm so easy to fool?" The Empress grabbed one of Hala's ears and said, "Stop pretending, raise your head!"
However, at this moment, a hand pressed down on the Empress's head. The Empress trembled and felt a terrifying force turning her head bit by bit.
After turning her head, she saw that the Demon King was really behind her. The Empress' panicked face slowly revealed an awkward smile, saying,
"Hey, hehe, I, I'm back."
