Chapter 58: Blackmailing Wu Yuan
Muxue did not speak, but glanced at Wu Yuan with disdain, then turned to look at Xiao Zhan: "Uncle Xiao Zhan, the chief of the Xiao clan in Wutan City, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
"Girl, if you have something to say, you might as well say it!"
Xiao Zhan spoke frankly and thought to himself, "This girl is from the Blood Blade Mercenary Group. If she stands up to speak at this time, she may want to ask herself to come forward to persuade Wu Yuan and hand over Yu Lao while compensating them."
Although Xiao Zhan also felt that Mr. Yu really deserved to die, at this time, there were more important things that required Wu Yuan's help, so he would not speak for Muxue.
When Muxue heard Xiao Zhan's words, she was not surprised at all. Instead, she smiled slightly, then took out a green jade plaque and said softly: "Uncle Xiao Zhan, I wonder if this can help me speak?"
Xiao Zhan was about to refuse, but when he saw the jade token in Muxue's hand, his pupils narrowed in vain, and the words he was about to refuse were stuck in his throat.
His Adam's apple twitched, and after swallowing hard, Xiao Zhan asked cautiously: "Dare you ask me the girl's name?"
"Muxue!"
Muxue didn't hide anything, she directly said her name and looked at Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan lowered his head and muttered the word "Muxue" several times. He seemed to have remembered something. A trace of horror flashed in the corner of his eyes and he asked cautiously: "May I ask Miss Mu, who are the heads of the Mu family, Mu Chen, and the girl?"
relation."
"Uncle Xiao Zhan, you don't have to worry about this. All you need to do is recognize the brand in my hand."
Muxue's tone was indifferent, and after speaking, she walked straight to an open space next to her.
After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Zhan realized what he was doing and hurriedly ran to catch up with Muxue: "Miss Mu, Xiao Zhan was reckless."
After the two of them walked to the open space, they started whispering in low voices.
Although he couldn't hear what Muxue said, he could see Xiao Zhan nodding uncontrollably.
Not long after, when the two returned again, Xiao Zhan's attitude had changed tremendously, and he said directly to Wu Yuan in a cold voice: "Boss Wu, I think this matter is indeed something you Xuanjitang did wrong, so
I also think that the Blood Blade Mercenary Group should be compensated and Mr. Yu should be handed over to them."
"Chief Xiao, this..."
Wu Yuan hesitated to speak, and his heart began to get excited, "Is it possible that this little girl has some special identity?
I seemed to have heard what brand they were talking about just now?”
He still had some impressions of Muxue. When Muxue and Lin Fan went to Xuanji Hall to buy the Phantom Grass, she was a bit delicate and arrogant.
But at that time, Lin Fan gave people the impression that he was a poor boy, and Muxue was with Lin Fan, so Wu Yuan didn't pay much attention.
"I'll give Boss Wu half a stick of incense time to think about it."
Xiao Zhan clasped his hands behind his back and reminded again: "But Boss Wu must be cautious."
This seems to be a well-intentioned sentence, but it is not difficult to hear the unkindness in the words.
The meaning of the words is also very obvious, but there are some reminders in the words.
"Boss Wu, don't believe what they say. They must have deceived Patriarch Xiao with their sweet words."
Cold sweat broke out on Mr. Yu's forehead, and he fell to his knees with a plop, looking pitiful.
"Shut up, I have my own sense of discretion."
Wu Yuan glared at Mr. Yu fiercely, then frowned and began to think.
At the same time, everyone in the Blood Blade Mercenary Group was also confused. Although they knew that Xiao Zhan's change in attitude at this time must be related to Muxue, they didn't know why.
However, Xiao Zhan is indeed speaking for the Blood Blade Mercenary Group at this time, which is good news.
Lin Fan knew everything the moment Muxue took out the jade token.
He had already figured out Muxue's identity, and the jade token he took out at this time must be something to prove his identity.
That was the Mu family, one of the three major families in the Gamma Empire. It was not comparable to the Xiao family in Wutan City. Xiao Zhan needed to choose a good friend between the Mu family and Xuanji Hall. This seemed to be a no-brainer.
things.
It's just that Lin Fan doesn't understand why Muxue exposed his identity at this time. Is it just to help the Blood Blade Mercenary Group?
However, since Muxue chose to do this, she must have her reasons, and Lin Fan would save trouble.
Half a stick of incense passed in an instant, and Xiao Zhan asked sharply again: "I wonder what Boss Wu is thinking about it?"
"Forget it, now that Chief Xiao has spoken, I, Xuanjitang, are willing to compensate the Blood Blade Mercenary Group 10,000 gold coins, and I will also give this old man to them!"
After weighing the pros and cons, the cunning Wu Yuan still chose to compromise.
He had already heard that Mr. Yu was lying, but as a businessman, he regarded interests as extremely important. How could he make compensation? His previous words were just a cover-up.
At this time, the Xiao clan leader had compromised. He, the owner of a medicine shop, could not afford to waste money.
Mr. Yu was kneeling on the ground, his face extremely cold. Naturally, he could see what Wu Yuan could see. Before, he was still feeling lucky to meet Xiao Zhan halfway, but now, Xiao Zhan's defection has changed the outcome.
"Although staying in Xuanji Hall will inevitably lead to death, it is better than falling into the hands of the Blood Blade Mercenary Group.
After such a commotion, the Blood Blade Mercenary Group will definitely not let themselves die easily."
The more he thought about this, the colder Mr. Yu's face became.
"Boss Wu really..."
"go to hell!"
Just when Xiao Zhang was about to praise Wu Yuanshi for his general appearance, Yu Lao suddenly burst out and rushed towards Muxue ferociously.
But before he could get close to Muxue, a lion's roar sounded, and then, a huge red lion's head suddenly slammed towards Mr. Yu.
"boom!"
There was a thunderous explosion that made everyone's ears go numb.
With one blow, Mr. Yu fell to the ground and fainted.
The person who rescued Muxue was naturally Xiao Zhan. How could a great fighter with such strength allow a fighter to successfully attack under his nose?
After glancing at Mr. Yu who fell to the ground, Xiao Zhan turned to look at Muxue: "Miss Mu, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, thank you Uncle Xiao Zhan."
Muxue smiled slightly, and then added: "But I was frightened just now, and I need 20,000 gold coins as compensation for mental damage."
"this..."
Xiao Zhan was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Boss Wu has already made a concession and is willing to compensate for 10,000 gold coins.
Moreover, Xiao Zhan does have a request from Xuanji Hall, and he cannot go too far.
What happened before, whether it was to compensate or hand over Mr. Yu, was reasonable, but now asking for 20,000 gold coins in mental damages is obviously a bit unreasonable.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Zhan whispered: "Miss Mu, are these 20,000 gold coins too much?"
"Is it much? I don't think so. Does Uncle Xiao Zhan think I'm not even worth 20,000 gold coins?" Muxue asked.
In desperation, Xiao Zhan gritted his teeth, turned around and said, "Boss Wu, Miss Mu needs 20,000 gold coins as compensation for mental damage, look!"
"Blackmail, this is clearly blackmail. Could it be that Patriarch Xiao wants to fool around with a little girl?"
Wu Yuanqi gritted his teeth, then pointed at Mr. Yu on the ground and said: He is no longer a member of our Xuanji Hall. Everything he has done has nothing to do with our Xuanji Hall. Take him away and kill him or cut him into pieces.
