Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl - Chapter 623
Chapter 623: Chapter 623: Huo Shuyu’s Method
Jiang Xiaobai knew that this Huo Shuyu was not simple. She must have recognized the usefulness of this crystal.
And this crystal was surely exceptional!
As he had thought, Huo Shuyu spoke again.
“This object is extremely precious, no wonder the people of the Sky Clearing Tower want to seize it.”
“If it were up to me, I would spare no expense to get my hands on it.”
Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes, “Well, why don’t you tell us, what’s so great about this thing?”
“It can open a secret territory, and within it, there are countless resources and treasures!”
“Once every ten years, thousands of these crystals appear out of nowhere. No one knows how they appear, but with one crystal, you can enter an extremely terrifying secret territory.”
“Resources within are innumerable. The only regret is that each crystal can only allow one person to enter.”
While saying all this, Huo Shuyu continually sighed.
Her eyes were full of desire for this crystal. It was evident that she wanted to take the crystal for herself.
Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes slightly.
What was his purpose for coming here?
Wasn’t it for power and resources?
Now that he knew about this, could he simply give it up?
Although Huo Shuyu is attractive, with an exceptional figure,
The moment Jiang Xiaobai saw Huo Shuyu, he knew he had lost himself!
And he had not even hesitated!
But after all, the two of them did not have many intersections.
If this special crystal caused a desire in Huo Shuyu to rise,
Jiang Xiaobai would not mind making a move.
Anyway, we are just acquaintances passing each other on the journey. If you can snatch it, why can’t I?
But then, something unexpected happened. Huo Shuyu actually threw the crystal to him.
Jiang Xiaobai was startled.
“Since you know about this thing, and it’s powerful, you don’t want it?”
Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow, this was indeed a bit surprising.
However, Huo Shuyu was indifferent and shook her head.
“I might want it, but that doesn’t mean I’m about to obtain it in this way, unless the boss decides to give it to me.”
After all, the only reason they’re on this trip in the first place is because of White Cat; without him, they wouldn’t even know about the crystal.
Upon hearing these words, White Cat furrowed his brow.
He naturally knows that having this thing in hand is like a ticking time bomb, evidence by the two attempted assassinations so far.
Even worse, the Sky Clearing Tower has appeared!
They simply cannot contend with the Sky Clearing Tower; anyone targeted by them is essentially a dead man walking.
You can’t say you’re at the peak of the Late Integration Stage, even if you are in the peak of crossing the tribulation stage, you would still die!
Only those who have truly witnessed the methods of the Sky Clearing Tower can understand how powerful they really are!
In any case, White Cat seems to have given up.
He would absolutely not involve himself with the Sky Clearing Tower, and he would definitely not go ahead and let his brethren continue the suicide mission!
“Or else, we could leave this stone here, and then run.”
White Cat turned his gaze towards the crowd.
Everyone thought for a second, then one by one nodded. But just then, Huo Shuyu suddenly interjected.
“Impossible.”
“If we leave it here, we’ll just die. This crystal has too many strings attached, the Sky Clearing Tower wouldn’t let us live knowing what we know.”
When Huo Shuyu finished speaking, everyone’s faces were as gray as death.
They’re done for, this time it’s really over!
They didn’t have a plan.
“Are we really going to just wait for the people from the Sky Clearing Tower to knock on our door, and put us to death?”
“Why don’t we escape now, perhaps the Sky Clearing Tower doesn’t yet know what’s going on here.”
The red-haired man gritted his teeth, unwilling to give up.
No one wanted to die.
But then they saw Huo Shuyu shake her head, “I know enough about the Sky Clearing Tower to know that the prey they target cannot escape, unless…”
Upon hearing the last part, White Cat and the others felt a glimmer of hope.
Could it be that Huo Shuyu has a solution?
“Unless we find a force that even the Sky Clearing Tower cannot contend with to back us, only then will the Sky Clearing Tower not make a move.”
Huo Shuyu said lightly.
As a result, everyone’s faces turned black. This simple principle, they all already knew!
But the problem was, where were they to find such a force?
Who would be willing to take them in?
If they could find powerful backing in the first place, why would they come to Bright Moon City and run a long wind darts league?
“Don’t worry, I happen to know just such a force that doesn’t regard the Sky Clearing Tower in the slightest.”
Huo Shuyu smiled.
This was Jiang Xiaobai’s first time seeing her smile. When she smiled, she was a completely different person than before!
That smile could totally melt a massive iceberg!
And White Cat and the others were stunned, their hearts twisting.
Cupping his chest, White Cat struggled to stand up.
“I’ll say this, how come I never noticed that you have such a knack for teasing?”
“Hahahaha!”
Huo Shuyu laughed again, completely different from her previous iceberg demeanor.
Jiang Xiaobai was quite taken aback, trying to understand what this woman’s personality was like.
When she didn’t speak, she seemed like an iceberg, and now, when she laughs, she’s like a crazy person.
“Settle down, I can get you out of here. In exchange, you give me this crystal.”
Huo Shuyu finally revealed her intentions.
But even without thinking, Jiang Xiaobai knew that someone, would not be offering help without expecting something in return.
As for Huo Shuyu’s requirement, White Cat immediately agreed.
It’s a joke. Right now, he’s just trying to survive. No matter how powerful this crystal is, it’s no longer within his domain.
You could say that as soon as he touches it, he will die!
And a horrific death at that.
Afterwards, Huo Shuyu turned to Jiang Xiaobai. Without hesitation, Jiang Xiaobai tossed the crystal to her.
“A good trade-off, let’s go explore together.”
Huo Shuyu raised an eyebrow and showed a surprised expression, “I didn’t expect you to be this capable. You aren’t tempted under such a temptation?”
“Of course I’m tempted, but, you may have underestimated me, Mr. Jiang.”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled.
“Good, but this journey will definitely not be peaceful, Jiang Bai, your strength is not bad, probably no less than mine, lend a hand when we get in trouble on the way.”
“If I have an opportunity to get another crystal, I’ll give it to you.”
Huo Shuyu spoke indifferently, once again regaining her icy demeanor.
At this, Jiang Xiaobai rolled his eyes. This woman, changes her face too quickly. Why does she seem so similar to his nominal master Gu Ning?
Anyway, the group needed to get moving now.
Under Huo Shuyu’s guidance, everyone planned to head east.
Xuanling State is vast, and the so-called Iron Cavalry Dynasty is far from the only one.
There are many such dynasties, and when the Iron Cavalry Dynasty is really hard pressed, it’s nothing but a middle to lower grade dynasty.
There are many more powerful than they are.
On the way, White Cat and the others were initially on high alert, but because of Jiang Xiaobai’s action, he didn’t even have time to stay on guard.
Because Jiang Xiaobai kept pestering White Cat, trying to understand Huo Shuyu’s situation.
And White Cat told him everything he knew.
After hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai furrowed his brows immediately.
He felt that something was off about this woman.
