Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter Thirty-Four Cooperation

Just as Sikong Xuan was in a dilemma, he heard Bai Ke's offer and felt as if a pie had fallen from the sky.

This young master Tian Ce suddenly appeared, and no one knows his origins. Now it is said that his fellow disciples will come out to travel in the future. Could it be that that great power is about to reappear in the martial world?

Was this Young Master Tian Ce merely paving the way? Thinking of this, Sikong Xuan couldn't help but think of Bai Ke's unfathomable cultivation level.

If even a single person who went ahead to scout has such a high level of cultivation, what kind of extraordinary power in the martial world could have such a profound foundation?

The thought that such a powerful force would ask him to take care of a young disciple who was about to go out for training left Sikong Xuan somewhat bewildered.

Seeing that Young Master Tian Ce was staring at him with a smile, as if he wouldn't leave until he agreed, Si Kong Xuan felt a headache coming on.

"This matter is of great importance, young master, please do not joke... Since we are fellow disciples, the Shennong Clan should lend a helping hand out of both courtesy and reason. Please explain your true intentions!"

After thinking it over, Sikong Xuan felt it was better to ask clearly. Bai Ke's request was unbelievably simple to him, so he intuitively felt that there must be some other deeper meaning behind it.

"Furthermore..." Sikong Xuan licked his lips, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"I'm not afraid of offending you, young master. I've been through the wringer myself. It's just a fight, nothing serious."

Since the man and woman who left recently had such status, the little kid from Wanjie Valley can only attract Zhong Wanchou, which my Shennong Gang can handle.

"But if that man is truly the heir of the Prince of Zhennan, and his father, Duan Zhengchun, leads his men to attack, then with their combined forces, my Shennong Gang would be no match for him."

"At this time, young master, you want my Shennong Gang to attack the Wuliang Sword Sect? Isn't that..." Sikong Xuan said with some righteous indignation.

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Bai Ke, only to see Bai Ke still staring at him with a half-smile, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Chief Sikong, there's no need for that. Since I, Bai, have made this suggestion, I will certainly help your gang resolve the Duan family's future troubles."

"Moreover..." Bai Ke then looked at Sikong Xuan with a smile and said, "Isn't Chief Sikong saying this because he wants to know my true purpose?"

"Young master, I was just..." Sikong Xuan hurriedly explained upon seeing this, but Bai Ke waved his hand to interrupt his explanation, and then said:

"Very well, today I will make things clear to you, so that you won't be suspicious all the time and needlessly ruin our relationship."

Bai Ke leaned lazily against a tree by the roadside, casually picked a leaf, poured spiritual energy into it, and shot it towards the bushes in the distance.

Then a "rip" sound came, and a neat crack appeared in the bushes. The crack was bottomless and looked frightening.

"How is it?" Bai Ke glanced at Sikong Xuan, who was still incredulous, and the latter finally came to his senses.

"Incredible skill! Incredible skill! Young master, are you perhaps a banished immortal descended to earth? How can you possess such profound cultivation at such a young age?"

As soon as he said it, Sikong Xuan knew something was wrong. Just as he was about to explain, Bai Ke waved his hand to indicate that it was alright, and then quieted down to wait for what was to come.

Bai Ke added, "There are no immortals here; we are merely fools on the path of cultivation!"

"To be honest, my sect is hidden in a sparsely populated place. Recently, my master felt that the world was in turmoil, so he ordered us to come here to train and uphold the righteous path."

However, we have been cultivating since childhood and are lacking in worldly wisdom. As the master's first disciple, I should share his burdens, so I came ahead of him.

I observe that Wuliang Mountain is a place where the wind gathers and the energy is concentrated, and the feng shui is excellent. I intend to build a separate residence here as a place for my junior brothers and sisters to enter the world.

However, the Wuliang Sword Sect's constant obstruction is truly hateful, and it has also angered my brother Duan Yu. Furthermore, they have a grudge against your sect!

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we joined forces to eliminate it? Afterwards, the entire Wuliang Mountain area would belong to the Shennong Gang, and I would only take a piece of land in the back mountain to build my villa. What does Gang Leader Sikong think?

Bai Ke's words combined kindness and threats, first demonstrating his profound skills, then appealing to his emotions and offering benefits, which greatly moved Sikong Xuan.

"Is what you say true, young master?" Sikong Xuan asked Bai Ke hesitantly.

"I never lie!" Bai Ke said righteously, then looked at Sikong Xuan.

"Before I left, my master gave me an antidote pill that can cure all kinds of rare poisons and insect worms. I heard that Chief Sikong has been tormented by the Life and Death Talisman for a long time?"

Upon hearing this, Sikong Xuan's expression of struggle deepened, but he still did not nod. Seeing that he still refused to agree to his suggestion, Bai Ke became somewhat impatient.

He felt that the conditions he offered were already generous enough. If it weren't for not wanting to cause big trouble, why would he have waited so long for the Shennong Gang's reply? He could have taken over Wuliang Mountain all by himself.

But after I go back, I don't know how long it will be before I can return. I really need someone trustworthy to take care of this place for me.

Seeing the slight impatience on Bai Ke's face, Sikong Xuan hurriedly said, "Young Master, please don't blame me for being slow, but this matter is of great importance!"

"Shennong helped Meng's ancestors never abandoned him. They have overcome many difficulties and faced the danger of destruction many times. It is thanks to the unity of the people that they have been able to overcome the difficulties together."

Now, Young Master wants Shennong Gang to join forces with you to occupy this vast area of ​​Wuliang Mountain. To be honest, if these words hadn't come from Young Master's mouth, Sikong would never have considered it.

"Since Sikong is the leader of a gang, he naturally has to consider the interests of my Shennong Gang members. Everything else is negotiable. Sikong only has one question for you, young master!"

After saying that, Sikong Xuan stared intently into Bai Ke's eyes, "Why is it my Shennong Gang?"

Bai Ke looked at the serious-looking bearded man in front of him and felt a headache coming on. How could he say that his Shennong Gang was the closest to the spatial rift and therefore easier to guard?

"Very well, I cannot say more. I can only tell you that I received a gift from your Shennong Gang ancestors and had an opportunity in that treasure vault."

Originally, I only planned to stay here for two months before finding another place to engage with the world. However, since I have received this opportunity from your Shennong Gang's predecessors, it is not appropriate to leave now.

"So, young master, you intend to give my Shennong Gang a piece of Wuliang Mountain?" Sikong Xuan's trembling voice interrupted Bai Ke's rambling.

“Exactly!” Bai Ke’s expression hardened, and he replied solemnly.

Seeing that Bai Ke didn't seem to be faking it, Sikong Xuan finally felt relieved. Then he muttered to himself, wondering what kind of benefit Bai Ke had received to give him such a large part of the Wuliang Mountain Range.

However, since Bai Ke has already obtained those benefits, I can only dream about it and focus on securing Wuliang Mountain, which is about to be mine.

Thinking of this, Sikong Xuan no longer hesitated and immediately made an agreement with Bai Ke that after Bai Ke dealt with Zuo Zimu and the others, he would immediately send people to seize the Wuliang Mountains.
