"Jade pendant?"

Xiao Zhan frowned and subconsciously clenched the space ring in his hand. The joints of his fingers turned slightly white due to the force.

Although he didn't know what the jade pendant was, it was passed down from his ancestors and carried the family's history and heritage, so deep down he was extremely reluctant to hand it over.

And the mysterious person in front of him specifically asked for the jade pendant, which is enough to show that this thing is by no means simple.

"What if I don't want to give you the jade pendant?"

There was a hint of firmness and stubbornness in Xiao Zhan's voice, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Tian, ​​as if he was guarding the most precious treasure.

Lin Tian raised the corner of his mouth. His so-called unwillingness to hand over the jade pendant was simply because the price was not enough.

Lin Tian believed that as long as there was enough benefit, he would hand it over.

Of course, the main reason is that this thing is an extremely important item that concerns the fate of the entire plane.

Once you try to snatch it by force, it will definitely attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao, which will make the other party hand it over voluntarily, and the process will be much easier.

"Patriarch Xiao, please think carefully. If you are unwilling, then the trouble your Xiao family is facing now will be difficult to overcome."

Lin Tian's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it carried an invisible pressure.

"Also, your son has recently encountered some problems in his cultivation and seems to be in urgent need of money to solve them. But does your Xiao family still have any money?"

"Of course, if you are willing to give me the jade pendant, I can give you a generous reward."

"1000 million gold coins, what do you think?"

Lin Tian's voice rang out in the slightly dim room, carrying a kind of seductive magic.

"Ten...Ten million..."

Xiao Zhan swallowed, his hands trembled slightly, and a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal flashed in his eyes.

"I know that your Xiao family's annual net profit is only about 1000 gold coins. 100 million gold coins is nearly years of income."

Lin Tian's slightly bewitching words echoed in Xiao Zhan's ears like a spell.

Xiao Zhan almost agreed, but his responsibility as the head of the clan made him hold on to this last bottom line.

"This belongs to my clan, I will never..." But before Xiao Zhan could finish his words, Lin Tian spoke again.

"What if we add another 100 bottles of foundation-building spirit fluid and Qi-gathering pills?"

"This~" Xiao Zhan took a deep breath, his voice stuttering, and he seemed to be frozen in place.

If he could really get those things, the Xiao family would definitely become a powerful family in a short period of time, which made him feel a little shaken.

However, Xiao Zhan's rationality was not broken, which made him still shake his head, but the amplitude was much smaller.

"This belongs to my clan... I..."

Seeing that the other party still wanted to refuse, Lin Tian couldn't help but smile crookedly, and the smile looked a little weird under the candlelight.

"Isn't that enough? What if we add ten Three-Striped Green Spirit Pills and one Douling Pill?"

"Your current strength is not far from the peak of the Grand Fighter Master, right? By the time you take the Fighting Spirit Pill, your Xiao family will also have a Fighting Spirit-level expert."

Lin Tian's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it hit Xiao Zhan's heart like a heavy hammer.

"This is the final price I can offer. If Patriarch Xiao is still unwilling, then I can only go to the Great Elder and the others."

Lin Tian's eyes became sharp, as if threatening Xiao Zhan.

"I think... they would be very interested."

"you!"

Xiao Zhan, who was originally very excited about the items proposed by Lin Tian, ​​became gloomy in an instant after hearing the following words, like a dark cloud.

After all, competition within the clan has always been there, and the Great Elder has always coveted the position of clan leader.

If the person in front of him really went to find the Great Elder and gave these things to him, then he would definitely be able to take away his position as the patriarch.

By then, the jade pendant will fall into the hands of the Great Elder, which is not what Xiao Zhan wants to see.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Zhan made a decision that went against his ancestors.

"How do I know whether what you said is true or false?" There was a hint of hesitation and doubt in Xiao Zhan's voice.

Seeing Xiao Zhan like this, Lin Tian knew that the other party had taken the bait.

So without hesitation, he waved his hand, and all the gold coins and pills that he had just promised appeared on the table.

In an instant, a unique and rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire room, the smell was mellow and charming.

Even the bottleneck that Xiao Zhan had broken through a few days ago seemed to loosen a little at this moment, causing the fighting spirit in his body to begin to stir.

"The pills are right here. Some of them you may recognize, and some you may not. Anyway, if you want them, you can take them away now."

"But you have to give me the jade token. Otherwise, once the Great Elder and the others come, I will have no choice but to cooperate with him."

Xiao Zhan clenched his fists, veins bulged on his forehead, and the pill in front of him really blinded his eyes.

Except for the Douling Pill he didn't recognize, he had seen all the others.

At the same time, the fragrance of the elixir also attracted the attention of the other three elders in the clan.

Seeing that the other party was coming towards this side, Xiao Zhan gritted his teeth and decisively took out the jade token from the space ring.

"I'll give you the thing. I hope you won't regret it." There was a hint of reluctance and helplessness in Xiao Zhan's voice.

"Don't worry, I'm a very honest person." Lin Tian took the jade pendant and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

The space behind him cracked directly, and a deep and dark space crack appeared behind him, and Lin Tian also disappeared in the room.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhan's face turned pale for a moment, as if all the blood had been lost.

"Carelessly opening up space, the other party... is actually a Dou Zun-level expert."

Fortunately, I agreed to him, otherwise if he killed me, the jade token would also belong to him.

However, the other party is so strong and is willing to trade with me, which also shows his sincerity.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan excitedly collected all the pills and the space ring containing gold coins in front of him.

Just at this moment, the door was kicked open and the three elders rushed in hurriedly.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Zhan frowned and stared at them angrily, his eyes seemed to be able to spit fire.

"What are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?" Xiao Zhan's voice exploded like thunder.

The Great Elder smelled the medicinal fragrance in the air and stared at Xiao Zhan suspiciously, his eyes rolling around.

"Chief, what's that smell in your room? What were you doing just now?" The Great Elder's voice was full of suspicion.

"What? Do I need to report to you about what I do?" Xiao Zhan's face became even uglier, and his expression seemed to be able to eat people.

A hint of gloom flashed across the Great Elder's eyes, and then he smiled and shook his head.

"That's not the case. It's just that the Xiao family is in a difficult financial situation right now. If the patriarch has any solution, please try."

There was a hint of flattery in the elder's tone, but it also gave people the feeling that he had ill intentions.

With a bang, Xiao Zhan slapped the table hard, and the table shook a few times. He stared at the elder with a serious expression.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Xiao Zhan's voice was full of majesty.

"I dare not, but the two major families are pressing us hard, and we still owe them money, so we want the clan leader to come up with a solution. After all, you have already used that pill."

The Great Elder lowered his head, a hint of unwillingness in his voice.

"Hmph! I understand. There's no need for you to say anything more. You can go back first. I will take care of the money issue and give them an answer tomorrow." Xiao Zhan waved his hand with a look of impatience.

The three elders looked at each other, and seeing that they could not get anything out of each other, they could only leave in shame, their backs looking a little embarrassed.
