Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 641: Chapter 35: Intimidation

The Ten Old Man, as the gang’s representatives of the Six Continents, have quite a significant power, and they’ve offended many people who wish to see them dead.

If it weren’t for the importance of the Yukexin Auction, the Ten Old Man would not gather together. To them, the annual Yukexin Auction is not just about earning money.

The division of their territories, the stability of their governed areas, the attitude of the V5 Organization, and many other matters need face-to-face discussions. The Yukexin Auction is merely an excuse for a gathering.

At this moment, on the second floor of the ancient castle, in a conference room.

The conference room was somewhat dimly lit, with only a single candle burning on the center of a round table. The Ten Old Man around the table were hidden in darkness.

”The auction house is destroyed, 1265 of our subordinates dead, 131 guests dead, and as for others, we temporarily can’t count.”

Pa, one of the Ten Old Man slammed the file in his hand onto the conference table.

”Bick, is this the result of the daily security efforts you claimed worth five Eternal Crystal Stones?”

”Ha, security? That guy indulges himself every day at Yukexin. He’s only protecting Bick’s daughter, fully ’protecting’ her in bed.”

”Tch, that bastard is a robber, I...”

Sizzle~

A metallic wire contraction sound was heard. The talking Ten Old Man stopped mid-sentence, lips trembling, as blood sprayed from his neck. The moment he dared to move, his head would be cut off.

”Enemies...”

A Ten Old Man who smelt the blood just about to shout had his voice halted as the conference room lights switched on, filling the formerly dim room with brightness.

”With lights on, you guys having a candlelit dinner?”

Su Xiao walked to the conference table, smiling as he glanced around at the Ten Old Man. With the Eye of the Apostle’s light gold equipment, he had already found their location.

”You are... Bai Ye?!”

”How did you find this place?”

The Ten Old Man were taken aback, a fear engulfed them; days ago they could act tough through a monitor, but a few meters apart now, they all chose silence.

”What did you just... say?”

Su Xiao looked at the previously arrogant Ten Old Man, the Boundary Line’s fine wire biting into his flesh, distorting his old face with pain, and soaking his expensive clothes in blood.

”Bai Ye, the effort you put in during the day, thank you.”

Bick, the father of Black Mary, who had negotiated with Su Xiao, spoke up.

Bick went to the door and then returned with two Soul Crystals (Medium) in his hand.

”This is compensation for his inappropriate words.”

The two Soul Crystals (Medium) were placed before Su Xiao. He glanced at Bick, then at the Ten Old Man.

He withdrew the Boundary Line, and the blood droplets flung off it slowly fell, as Su Xiao picked up the two Soul Crystals.

Seated at the conference table, Su Xiao lit a cigarette.

”Bai Ye, about the auction house?”

As Bick spoke, the Ten Old Man strangled before stood up and left, murmuring ’this madman’ at the door.

The other Ten Old Man laughed coldly; this guy was the leader of the Phantom Beast Leech. After Leech’s death, his status severely declined. If he didn’t find someone to replace Leech after this auction, his position among the Ten Old Man would need a change.

The departing Ten Old Man was of little interest to the remaining nine who turned to Su Xiao.

”It’s a member of the Spider, I fought with him. Rest assured, I won’t take your benefit for nothing.”

Su Xiao picked up a square box beside his foot, opened it, and took out Feitan’s head from within, placing the head on the conference table. The nine Ten Old Man, as mafia leaders, were naturally not fazed by a head.

”Is this one of the Spider?”

”Yes.”

Su Xiao tossed a piece of skin with the Spider tattoo onto the conference table.

”Remember the small sun from before?”

Su Xiao looked at Bick, who had a relative voice of authority among the Ten Old Man.

”A strong impression.”

”This was manifested by this guy, named Feitan, a psychic with transformation telekinesis ability, Troupe Number 2. As for his strength, you’ve seen the devastation of the auction.”

Listening to Su Xiao’s words, Bick’s brows furrowed, and the other Ten Old Man discussed amongst themselves.

The current situation was somewhat out of the Ten Old Man’s control, and they weren’t stupid. Considering the auction’s destruction power in the battle, they might not be a match for the Troupe.

”It truly is the Spider, so their prior appearance wasn’t just a rumor.”

”Already sent people to handle it, but...”

A Ten Old Man sighed.

”Bai Ye, shouldn’t you be able to deal with the Spider?”

Bick’s question made the other Ten Old Man’s eyes light up, indeed, the head on the table spoke volumes. They’ve got a trump card.

”No.”

Su Xiao flatly refused.

”Based on my understanding, there are a total of 13 members in the Spider, Feitan isn’t the strongest, now 12 remain, which means I have 12 more enemies to face. As for the Phantom Beasts, ha~”

While speaking, Su Xiao tapped the table with his fingers, pondering what to do next.

The main task was to participate in the auction, yet with the auction venue destroyed, the main task became somewhat bizarre.

The main task hadn’t failed; meaning, the auction could continue. Whether the Ten Old Man held the goods or the Troupe did, they would continue the auction.

So no worry on the main task, plus the reward isn’t too generous, so the difficulty isn’t too high either.

”Bai Ye, regarding the remuneration...”

Bick wore a pained expression. Five Soul Crystals (Medium) per day was already making them ten suffer losses, any more would border harm, better to hire Zoldyck Family assassins.

”If you want me to deal with the Phantom Troupe, fine, no need to increase the pay, but it must be paid in full at once.”

Hearing this, several Ten Old Man’s hearts went cold simultaneously; Bick thought secretly, one would have to be a fool to pay in full at once.

”Ha ha, don’t joke with us, we...”

”Do I look like I’m joking?”

Su Xiao blew a puff of blue smoke; the Ten Old Man could die at any time, missteps could ruin him financially.

”What about... paying half the deposit first?”

Bick tentatively offered, while the other Ten Old Man immediately opposed.

”No way! Pay half deposit? Too much.”

”How is it possible.”

A Ten Old Man stood up, feeling chilled all over. Not only because of the Phantom Troupe’s threat, but the madman before him seemed more dangerous.

”Half the deposit?”

Su Xiao displayed contemplation; according to previous agreements, the Ten Old Man was to pay him 65 Soul Crystals, and now had paid 15, excluding the two just given.

That meant they still owed Su Xiao 50 Soul Crystals, and he had to protect the auction until September 10th.

Despite the auction hall’s ruin, it wasn’t Su Xiao’s doing, it was Feitan’s contrivance.

There were still many auction venues in Yukexin suitable replacements, and handling the deceased guests was up to the Ten Old Man’s force.

”Pay me 30 Eternal Crystal Stones at once, the remaining 20 by September 10.”

The Ten Old Man exchanged glances, hesitating.

The reason for Su Xiao demanding advance Soul Crystals is to prevent the Ten Old Man from being assassinated, considering someone was arriving soon.

”Fine, consider the 30 stones a deposit.”

Bick gritted his teeth and agreed, having even given away his daughter as a bed warmer, what’s ’money’ in comparison, survival is the priority now.
