Chapter 777: Chapter 775, What reward do you want?

Cai Jin scrutinized the letter in his hand, the suspicion in his eyes growing more obvious. After all, could a mere letter resolve his impending doom?

This was something he found difficult to understand.

The reason being that the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses had long reached a non-aggression pact with the Imperial Court.

That is to say, as long as they did nothing outrageous, the government would leave them be, allowing their existence.

Apart from the government, who else could destroy Heifeng Stockade?

The Four Great Sects?

Alright.

The Four Great Sects could indeed easily wipe them out, but as long as they did not offend the Four Great Sects, there was no reason for them to act against them!

”The contents inside will make the Great Leader Cai doubtful, so I suggest you refrain from opening the letter,” Xu Wendong added.

Cai Jin immediately released his soul force, and upon seeing the contents, his face changed instantly, and his eyes emitted immense anger, ”Where did you acquire this letter?”

As Xu Wendong had mentioned, he couldn’t believe what was inside. He couldn’t believe his brother dared to rob the Elixir Sect’s supplies.

This was simply courting disaster for himself!

Xu Wendong said, ”It was given to me by Wang Qian from the Chen Escort Agency. He asked me to hand it to the Second Leader, also saying that the Second Leader could give me a lifetime of glory.”

”I pondered that even if Heifeng Stockade wanted to rob the Elixir Sect’s supplies, this letter shouldn’t be given to the Second Leader.” At this, Xu Wendong laughed.

The facts proved he had gambled correctly.

It was not Cai Jin’s intention to loot the Elixir Sect’s supplies.

In other words, it was Guan He’s own idea.

However, none of this mattered. What was crucial was that if Guan He did rob the Elixir Sect’s supplies, the Elixir Sect would definitely blame Heifeng Stockade.

When the time came, Heifeng Stockade would face certain destruction.

Cai Jin looked at Xu Wendong.

This time.

His expression became serious; he hadn’t expected this fellow to have such a deep scheming mind, daring to risk his life infiltrating Heifeng Stockade.

Initially, they thought Xu Wendong had walked into a trap.

But the facts proved.

This guy had extraordinary skills, his actions astounding and perplexing.

Not to mention anything else, merely his deep scheming and courage were unmatched by ordinary people.

”Having spoken to this point, I won’t hide it from the Great Leader Cai,” Xu Wendong said. ”Yao Tian was hunting me mainly because I killed Xu Qinglin.”

”Yes, Xu Qinglin was my father’s murderer; after killing him, I obtained his magic artifact. Yao Tian, under the pretense of seeking revenge for Xu Qinglin, wanted to seize that artifact.”

Cai Jin realized, ”So that’s how it is!”

Xu Wendong continued, ”If the Great Leader Cai does not believe the contents of the letter, you could find a brother the Second Leader does not know to pass this letter to him.”

Cai Jin changed the subject, ”What reward do you want?”

Xu Wendong thought for a moment, ”If possible, let me send the Second Leader on his way!”

Cai Jin gave a deep and meaningful smile, ”I thought you would seize the opportunity to ask for some benefits. You could have done so, after all, you saved my Heifeng Stockade; as long as you speak, I, Cai Jin, will do my best to fulfill your request.”

Xu Wendong shook his head, ”I did this mainly because I didn’t want the daughter of the Chen Escort Agency to die because of someone’s scheme.”

He knew he could definitely ask for some cultivation resources.

But tonight, his main purpose was to save Chen Xi’s life; he hadn’t thought of anything else.

Cai Jin extended an olive branch, ”Although I don’t know what connection you have with the daughter of the Chen Escort Agency, Cai can see that Young Master Xu is a man of feeling and integrity. I don’t know if Young Master Xu would be willing to become the Second Leader of my Heifeng Stockade?”

A genius of the Foundation Establishment stage, with a magic artifact, he appreciated such talent greatly.

Xu Wendong couldn’t help but say, ”Isn’t the Great Leader Cai doubtful of the letter’s authenticity?”

Guan He had not yet been dealt with, yet he was recruiting himself as the Second Leader of Heifeng Stockade. This move left Xu Wendong a little confused.

Cai Jin forced a smile, ”If it had been a year ago, I would certainly have doubted it. I couldn’t believe the second brother would do such a thing.”

”But now, with the worldly Age of Dharma Decline having ended, he could completely plunder the Elixir Sect’s herbs and then leave the Minor World, with the sky being broad and birds flying high!” At this, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

He and Guan He had been brothers for decades, knowing that he was selfish and greedy, so doing such a thing seemed within reason?

Xu Wendong said, ”I appreciate the Great Leader Cai’s kindness, but being young and restless, I don’t have the notion of settling down just yet. Perhaps a few decades from now, I will choose a mountain to retire. By then, the first place I’d consider would be Heifeng Stockade.”

Cai Jin did not force him, saying, ”The position of the Second Leader of my Heifeng Stockade will always be available to you!” With that, he took out an invisibility talisman, allowing Xu Wendong to leave the stockade.

Xu Wendong did not stand on ceremony either, wearing the invisibility talisman to leave Heifeng Stockade.

He successfully left Heifeng Stockade, hurriedly reaching the place where the Chen Escort Agency was stationed.

Although previously injured, he had consumed a healing elixir on his way, and his wounds had thoroughly healed.

Yet, being slapped by someone left him extremely angry.

After all, he had never suffered such humiliation!

”You...”

Seeing Xu Wendong return, Wang Qian gasped, almost believing he had seen a ghost.

After all, he and Guan He had agreed long ago that upon his passing through Heifeng Stockade, someone would be dispatched to inform him.

For caution’s sake, Guan He would eliminate the messenger.

If that were the case.

Xu Wendong shouldn’t have been able to come back alive!

Before he could react, Chen Xi approached with a porcelain bottle in hand, ”I heard Young Master Xu had a stomach ache. This is an elixir unique to the Chen Family that can cure abdominal discomfort.”

”Thank you, Miss.” Xu Wendong expressed his gratitude.

Though he had been slapped by Guan He earlier, thinking he could save this kind-hearted, beautiful woman made it all worth it.

Night gradually deepened.

The world was cloaked in darkness.

The members of the escort agency gradually fell into slumber.

Only the gentle breeze and the calls of unknown insects echoed in the world.

Xu Wendong lay quietly on the grass, unable to sleep, for he knew an epic battle lay ahead.

Sure enough.

At midnight, he sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching from the southeast.

It made him involuntarily open his eyes, his heart racing.

Moments later.

Guan He appeared beside the camp like a ghost, followed by four experts in the Foundation Establishment Stage. All five were dressed in night clothes, masks covering their faces, wielding sharp longswords.

They first inspected the goods on the cart, confirming they were fresh herbs being transported to the Elixir Sect, then quietly approached Chen Xi and the others.

At this moment, Xu Wendong stretched lazily and stood up, yawning, ”Second Leader, wandering around at night, doing such sneaky deeds?”

”Xu Wendong?” Guan He’s pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes full of shock, ”What are you doing here?”
