Chapter 849 The Weight of a Saint
"Compensation? He still wants us to compensate?"

Hu Wen moved quickly and escaped from the crater in a few steps, feeling a little unbelievable.

Is there any mistake?

But soon, he thought of something.

Previously, two boundary breakers in the newly developed area sent back important information. They were attacked by the mysterious ghosts, but were rescued by the Ou family.

Hu Wen actually knew that the massacre of the boundary breakers in the newly developed area was definitely arranged by the Lu family.

But at his position, although the Boundary Breakers were an important force, he simply acquiesced and ignored them for the sake of internal harmony.

He even knew the information brought back by Xuan Gui!

Later, the entire newly developed area was replaced by the direct descendants of the Lu family, and Hu Wen did not ask about it.

Although he didn't know that the old man from the Lu family wanted to play it this way, he was clear that the other party wanted to try to break through to the Saint level.

There is less interference in the newly developed area, so just let him go.

But I never expected that such a thing would happen!
"Xuan Gui! Assassin's League!"

Hu Wen cursed in his heart, but at this moment he felt helpless.

The best way to deal with the situation now is to stay alive and protect yourself!

You can only talk if you are still alive!
"The Ou family... I don't think so..."

Hu Wen thought in his heart.

Although he had never met Ou Sheng, he could judge that this person was probably not him.

It's not a problem of ability, but the other party is too reckless!

If two saints appeared in Dilong City, they would either fight among themselves or work together to confront the outside world.

The possibility of a saint hiding in secret is very small, unless the situation is that everyone trusts each other very much and is planning something big.

"If there are two saints, then the sphere of influence of Dilong City will definitely be expanded, and we will be able to obtain a lot of hidden benefits. The situation in Tianlong Province should not be hidden..."

Wild Saint?
It's really an unfamiliar term...

"You didn't send spies in advance, come here to explore in person, and rashly enter various worlds without collecting intelligence? The Death God World is even a world of forced compression. This is too rare..."

Saints are so precious, how can they take such a risk? Even I, or even an ordinary disaster level, would not do this!
The abyss has endless possibilities, and there are so many bloody examples before us. People who live long enough should understand the awareness of risks!

Hu Wen kept thinking in his mind, trying to find new clues.

But at this moment, a jade talisman on his body suddenly broke, which made Hu Wen's face change. He immediately took out another copper lock and hung it on his body!

"Damn it! They already know!"

Hu Wen's face looked extremely ugly, which was a hint that he had just been subjected to a powerful divination!
Only fragments of the same world would have such a reaction.

Obviously, I just received the news not long ago, and even though the newly developed area was infiltrated like a sieve, the other party also got the information soon after.

But starting to divine on this fragment now can only be said to be too fast!
"As expected, they have arranged people to lurk here and wait for an opportunity to strike. Fortunately, I am alert. I am afraid I cannot go back now..."

Hu Wen's face changed for a moment, and then he immediately headed towards the nearest debris.

Although the opponent could not break his anti-divination, when this powerful divination was disturbed, he would definitely understand that he was still in the fragments!
As a quasi-saint, he can almost stay in the abyss for a long time!

Now, the only remaining response is to run to the nearest other development area first, and then teleport to the nearest development area of ​​a certain enemy, so that their divination can interfere with their anti-divination aura, and carry out the final deterrence...

"Alas, after all, I am still not strong enough..."

Hu Wen thought of something, his face was uncertain, and then he picked up the cross-border communication and said in a deep voice

"Arrange Xi'er as the family representative to go to the new development area and discuss compensation with the saint... We will give him whatever he wants!"

What does the promise that Lu Laogui sold have to do with me?
If you three want it, just come and get it!
Now, this is the only possible way to break the impasse. They have already divined themselves, and it is obvious that they want to cut the grass and root it out...

……

On the outskirts of Bianliang, Tao Yu killed Lu Sen and saved billions of lives in the fragments, although only he knew about it.

But Dalfin, who had just defected, took the initiative to combine Tao Yu's speculation about killing Lu Sen, put forward the process, and publicized it extensively.

Although Dalfin is still suffering from the backlash of the Abyss Contract, his strength has fallen to the catastrophic level.

But the restrictions that Lu Sen placed on him had been lifted by Tao Yu.

Well, then it was changed to Tao Yu's...

"...You have seen the celestial phenomena before, and the red rays are the same. There are also many places in the Song Dynasty where altars are being built, so it was the saint's intervention that saved your lives! Otherwise, the entire fragment, whether it is the natives or the pioneers, will become a sacrifice for the promotion of the Lusen demon!"

Dalfin continued to narrate what had happened with all his might, and with the strength he still had left, millions of people in Bianliang could hear his voice.

Because of the previous astronomical phenomena, this convincing power is still very high.

Many people are immersed in fear and panic.

It felt really terrible to be on the verge of life and death without knowing anything.

And for those who understand, they know in their hearts that no matter whether it is true or not, what the saint said must be "correct"!
There is no saint in the entire Jibing City. The ancestor of the Lu family who originally stood at the top of Jibing City was also killed. Now this saint is the sky of the Song Dynasty!
The pioneers of the settlement were also all honest and no one had any complaints.

This level of change is no longer something they can control.

Even if you are a boundary breaker, you can't be involved in such issues!
Wayne, who had brought Tao Yu and the others here before, still felt like he was in a dream at this moment.

I thought he had brought a disaster-level figure, and judging by the situation, he had been ambushed, but now it turns out he is a saint!
In other words, both the disaster-level and saint-level beings can easily kill him. From his senses, the difference is not that big.

The same was true for several boundary breakers who had chatted with him before.

I don't feel anything special about the huge gap. What I'm more worried about is the changes in my own and my family's interests.

And they also knew that things had probably changed in Jibing City, or at least in the newly developed area.

“I don’t know if he is the saint of Dilong City.”

"I don't know. Alas, when the saint goes on tour, all the interests in the newly developed areas must be given up immediately."

"That's right, the Lu family is finished..."

"Goddess Yan Xin hasn't appeared recently."

"Who knows if he went to serve the saint?"

"What? A being so high and mighty should not indulge in such low-level interests."

"That's right, Goddess Yan Xin is also very capable, I'm afraid she will be kept for important purposes...

"..."

……

"Ah~, it's broken..."

Yan Xin was indescribable, with her slender arms supporting the ground and a dazed look in her eyes.

Tao Yu casually threw a cheongsam and covered her with it.

"As compensation for the damage you caused to my castle, change it and come with me to meet the guests later."

Tao Yu's tone was very casual. No matter how badly Yan Xin was, she was still a disaster in Jibing City. It would be more convenient to keep her around to deal with the upcoming negotiations and to provide some information reminders.

The ancestor of the Lu family wrote so many blank checks in exchange for some help in becoming a saint. Although the three families were not suckers and did not give any really good things, they still gave a lot of gifts.

Now I am sure that he will want to force it to be fulfilled...

-

In the extreme ice gathering area outside Bianliang, the transmission device is also a top priority for protection.

However, after the incident here, apart from a few people who took the opportunity to escape when the chaos started on the teleportation device side, no other pioneers have come from the other side until now.

As a newly developed area of ​​Jibing City, its development is not yet mature. Except for the old development area of ​​Jibing City which relies on the price advantage of the same civilization fire, there are definitely few people who would waste money to come here.

When something like this happens here, I'm afraid it will be quiet for a long time until the problem is figured out.

The order of the gathering place is now temporarily coordinated by the seriously injured Dalfin.

However, the situation of the pioneers is different from that of the indigenous people. Most pioneers still have to return to the human world regularly to reduce this pollution.

Now that there is a follower, it is useless to simply use coercive means at the gathering place.

Many people have seen the bad situation and have fled back to the real world to wait and see. The pioneers who have stayed behind temporarily are either seeking wealth and fame in danger, or have received intelligence gathering missions in the real world.

To say that they were all spies might be an exaggeration, but to say that 70% of them were spies was probably an understatement.

However, due to the characteristics of the Ice City, a saint here can only conduct reconnaissance at most. All the tasks assigned by Dalfin are still completed honestly, so the stability of the entire development area is still ensured.

zizi~
As the transmission device flashed, a beautiful woman in white clothes, wearing a white veil and looking like an immortal, appeared on the device.

The warning lights flashed, indicating that the person coming was very powerful.

The pioneer who was slacking off nearby also saluted when he saw the newcomer and said with a stammer and nervousness:
"Meet Miss Xi'er."

Although he was only temporarily arranged here and was only a mid-level partner, he still knew about Miss Xier, who was very famous in the city.

Together with Lady Yan Xin, they are known as the two extremely cold beauties. Their talent, gifts, background, strength and looks are perfect. They are the objects of admiration and dream lovers of countless pioneers.

"Are you the only one guarding here?"

Xier frowned when she saw that there was only an ordinary pioneer guarding the teleportation device.

"Many big shots have already returned to the world or left. I am just here to take a look. With the saint in charge, nothing will go wrong."

The guard said with an apologetic smile.

"Ms. Xi'er."

At this moment, a voice was faintly heard in the distance, and Dalfin floated down and appeared on the scene.

This made Xier look back at him and feel the aura of decay on him.

Dalfin, who was originally stronger than himself, is now obviously seriously injured.

"It seems that you took the initiative to betray the ancestor of the Lu family, and what you said is true." Xier nodded to Dalfin as a greeting.

"He who does evil will perish by his own evil deeds. He has gone too far."

Dalfin sighed and then made a gesture of invitation.

"Let's go, you should be here on behalf of Elder Hu, let's go talk to the saint."

However, at this moment, the transmission device flashed again, buzzing~
After a series of flashes, three figures appeared one after another soon!

"Oh, it's just in time."

The man, wearing a tight space suit-like outfit and with a sci-fi lens on his right eye, reached out and touched the lens and said with a smile.

"It's time to catch up."

A man dressed in black and looking ordinary stood with his hands behind his back and spoke in a calm tone. His eyes swept across the scene and finally landed on Xier and Darfen.

"Oh, what a coincidence."

The last one was a burly barbarian with bare chest, revealing his torn muscles. He carried a giant axe as tall as a person on his shoulder. He had a carefree look on his face and looked at Xier with unscrupulous eyes, full of aggression.

The three figures have completely different attire styles, and even based on the flashing lights of the teleportation devices, it can be seen that they are pioneers from three different places!
They clearly came from three different places, but they arrived at almost the same time, right after Xier. To call this a coincidence would be too much of a stretch!

"Are you spying on me?"

Xier turned around and gave the three of them a cold look. It must be that someone knew that she was using the teleportation device and then used cross-border communication to notify them instantly!
"Woman, don't feel so good about yourself. Do you think you are worthy of being monitored by someone in Jibing City?"

The man with sci-fi glasses smiled casually.

"We are just monitoring the transmission here. It doesn't matter who you are."

The man in black tights also had a look of indifference.

"Haha, I do want to monitor you. I know you, Miss Xier, right? Jibing City obviously has no future, so you might as well just follow me."

The burly barbarian laughed loudly, raised his eyebrows and trembled his muscles in a mean manner, with a provocative and teasing look clearly on his face.

Then he seemed to have thought of something, and quickly covered his mouth with his palm as big as a palm fan, then fanned it and laughed.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm a rough man and not very good at speaking. If I'm offended... please bear with me, haha."

It is obvious that the three of them came here to target Xier or Jibingcheng, and their malicious intentions are quite obvious.

"Everyone, since you are here, let's go to see the saint together and avoid unnecessary verbal disputes."

Darfin saw that Xi'er's face was a little red, so he spoke at the right time.

The three of them were all sarcastic and sneered at Xi'er, not giving her any respect at all. But when it was Dalfin's turn to speak, they all nodded politely.

"Good work."

"Mr. Dalfin is now following the Saint."

"The future is limitless."

Even though Dalfin was a traitor, he was now weak and had obviously suffered backlash.

But the attitudes of several people were quite good.

It can be said that the relationships between the parties have now been revealed.

The three major forces that were stalking Jibing City had obviously reached some kind of tacit understanding and started to cooperate!
The one being suppressed is the Jibing City, which is currently the weakest persimmon...

-

The interior of the Ice Castle has been rearranged to be very gorgeous, with a red carpet extending all the way on the ground, and armor and torch lights on both sides.

Finally, led by Dalfin, the group arrived at a hall.

At this time, Tao Yu rested his head on Helibel's chest, letting Yan Xinwei, who was wearing a black slim cheongsam, eat the fruit next to him, with a somewhat lazy expression on his face.

Seeing Tao Yu's scene, the pioneers except Dalfin were stunned.

There are only a few saints who have this kind of interest or hobby.

But most of the time, saints can do whatever they want.
So even though they saw this rare phenomenon, everyone looked respectful.

They were all considered to be at a disaster level in front of others, but at this moment, they all bowed in unison to greet Tao Yu.
"I've seen the saint."

Tao Yu waved his hand casually, and Yan Xin next to him stopped holding the fruit in her hand and knelt down obediently, waiting to be ordered.

Tao Yu slightly raised his upper body, put his arms casually on his knees and looked at the few people.

"Are you all here to negotiate terms? Since you are all here, tell us what you are going to do and let me know your sincerity."

Tao Yu didn't engage in such nonsense and spoke in a calm tone.

The other party would send a disaster-level person here just to show their importance, and it is impossible that they were sent here to die.

The disaster-level officials themselves belong to the top of their respective forces. With authorization, they have their own discretion in many matters and can do what they see fit.

After hearing Tao Yu's words, the man with the sci-fi glasses took the lead and bowed.
"I am Ize Joels, the head of the public relations department of the Joels Group of the Endless Sea. I came here to congratulate the Saint on taking over the new gathering place, and also to discuss the distribution of interests in Jibing City with the Saint. All three of us have the same intention. The deceased old man of the Lu family has already sold a lot of interests in Jibing City to us at the beginning..."

Tao Yu nodded when he heard this, his eyes stopped on the other person, and then said with interest

"I haven't been to the Endless Sea yet. I heard that it is at the edge of the world, it is boundless, and the outside is connected to the abyss. There are countless powerful people there?"

Tao Yu had also read information about the Endless Sea in the records of the Sun family. It was said to be on the edge of the world. Because the fire of civilization was not dense, there were many powerful abyss monsters in the huge span between them!
For example, the edge of the main world map has already caused the main world to lose its sphere...

Moreover, a lot of information about the path to becoming a god comes from the Endless Sea, which is also home to far more powerful people than those in the inland.

The risks and crises over there are greater, but the rewards given by the world's will are also greater.

The Nephi world also needs to cross the Endless Sea to interact with this world.

"The Endless Sea is indeed full of powerful people. Only those who possess the Sainthood are qualified to take root in the Endless Sea. However, our Joels Group is only a logistics group closest to the coast. We mainly provide consulting services for some powerful people who want to cross the sea..."

Ize Joels smiled and started talking about the company's business.

To some extent, these saints who are curious about the Endless Sea are their high-quality customers.

"Oh, if that's the case, then why are you so interested in Jibing City?"

"The ice crystal ore in Jibing City can enhance the communication with weapons. If a large amount of ice crystal ore is smelted and purified, it can even help to communicate with holy objects. This kind of goods is very popular even in the Endless Sea."

If there weren't enough benefits, even if there were no saints in Jibing City, it wouldn't attract attention.

If some catastrophic damage is caused, it can cause considerable damage.

Wars usually result in losses for both sides.

Tao Yu already knew about the ice crystal mine, but for now, it could only be sold for money, so he didn't care much about it.

Now seeing the slightly excited tone of Yize, the disaster-level person, when he spoke of this, I also thought that for ordinary disaster-level people, it might not be so easy to communicate with the holy objects!
Many catastrophic-level warriors who accidentally obtain holy objects will have them rot in their hands due to mismatch.

However, most of the people he met who possessed holy objects were gifted people. Even the old man from the Lu family who had taken a detour had achieved resonance with the holy objects.

Now it seems that the thing is worth even more.

After all, for large forces, simply selling willpower is really not worth such a big fuss, but they will definitely not have too much of this kind of good thing that can increase their foundation and be circulated and digested internally...

"It is true that you should try not to judge others by yourself. People are different from each other."

Tao Yu muttered to himself, then glanced at everyone and said

"Since the value is so high, are you here to ask me to give up the ice crystal mine? The things promised by the dead Lu family have nothing to do with me. He is already dead. Besides, if you want to take them by force, these things may be destroyed and contaminated..."

The teleportation fee is very expensive, and the teleportation fee for saints is even more expensive!
However, this is a teleportation under the same civilization fire. If you just want to go to the old development area of ​​Jibing City, there will be a big discount.

Although Tao Yu had never thought about it before, now that he thinks about it, it is not impossible if there are enough benefits.

At this time, the man in black robe also bowed and said
"You are a saint, so you are naturally qualified to have a share. For us, a conflict would be a loss for all, so we must all take a step back and jointly gain the benefits of the ice crystal mine. As for the other businesses of Jibing City, the four of us will take 40% together, and each company can take 10%. This will also prevent Jibing City from jumping off the cliff."

Tao Yu didn't need to do anything extra. Just because the saint was on a tour and unexpectedly came here and intervened, it was already tacitly acknowledged that Tao Yu had a share.

You can get your own benefits without bloodshed!

What was being discussed at this time was only the attitude towards Jibing City, so that all parties could reach a tacit understanding.

In terms of strength alone, the three major forces with saints have an absolute crushing advantage over Jibing City.

The reason why I didn't take forceful action is that I would just break the bottles and jars and get a mess, which is meaningless!
Now they just want to give Jibing City a way out, take out the most precious minerals, and take some commission from other businesses.

This kind of commission can be considered as protection fee to some extent!

If we can negotiate it out, there is naturally no need to fight.

Several people openly discussed the division of Jibing City in front of Xier without considering their opinions at all.

It seems that as long as the decision is made here, she just comes here to wait for the results and notification!
Looking at Yan Xin who was massaging Tao Yu's feet, Xi'er couldn't help but speak up.
"Your Majesty, Xi'er has something to say."

"Well, tell me."

Tao Yu waved his hand casually, and the man in the black robe and tights shut up obediently, not daring to say anything more, and lowered his head respectfully.

Although he is at the disaster level, he dare not act rashly in front of a saint!

Treat him with courtesy, this was the instruction he received this time!

"My Jibing City is now unable to defend the ice crystal mine. It is natural to hand it over due to lack of strength. Even if it is other harvests of willpower, we are willing to give up 50% of the net profit. However, we want all parties to sign a contract not to harm my ancestor..."

After seeing that they were already having a pleasant conversation on the spot, Xier realized that there was no way to contact them privately in advance, so she simply showed her sincerity.

You want 40%? We can give you 50%!

But we need safety! Commitment!
In this kind of power struggle, it is almost a default practice to eradicate the root of the problem, and to prevent the losers from giving birth to stronger ones again.

If the ancestor of the Lu family had become a saint before, it would be fine and it would be an equal conversation.

But now the Jibing City is like a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

Well, in order to avoid trouble, even if they are appeased in the early stage, some catastrophic "disappearances" and even quasi-saint "disappearances" are almost inevitable!

The internal strife of forces in Xingyao City will lead to the suppression of the emergence of new saints. For a colonized city like this, castration is almost certain...
