The luxurious office was covered with huge floor-to-ceiling windows. It was evening and the sun shone proudly into the room, dyeing the carpet the most noble color in the world.
Bai Chimian was wearing gorgeous ethnic costumes, his long white hair was tied up with a red rope, and there were two thick dark circles under his eyes on his handsome face. The depressing atmosphere around him clearly showed his mood at the moment.
Those mentally ill guys had been fighting outside for so long, and it had little effect on those low-level mutants, but as a tenth-level mutant, he could naturally sense their movements.
But he is not stupid, and he certainly won't be stupid enough to join them in a fight. That is what brainless people like to do.
But he really didn't expect that they could fight for seven days!
Seven full days!
I haven’t slept well in seven days!
Bai Chimian was already on the verge of collapse. After waiting for them to calm down, he was about to catch up on some sleep when he was delayed by an uninvited guest.
Bai Zhao, who brought the people in, silently shrank into the shadow of the corner. After making sure that the young master would not remember him for a while, he watched the show while mourning for the blond and blue-eyed people in front of him.
Hehe, these people really know how to pick the right time~
"Hello, Mr. Bai, I am Lloyd from the Orlov family in the Northern District. Please, please forgive us for interrupting you this time."
Lloyd was so frightened by Bai Chimian's low mood that he stuttered when speaking.
He had never suffered this kind of suffering when he was with Huo Xiao before.
Although Huo Xiaoshao is stronger, he is not the type of person who likes to be tortured by coercion. If he doesn't like someone, he will start beating them up directly, or simply stop associating with them.
In addition, the other party regarded him as a creditor, so Lloyd did not feel the suppression of the super high-level mutant at all.
But the person in front of me is different.
Before he even opened his mouth, he felt that he was inferior to the other person, and now he almost didn't dare to breathe in front of the other person.
Bai Chimian let out a sarcastic smile. "No forgiveness. If you feel it's intrusive, then don't bother me."
He didn't really want to chase people away, he was just being rude.
Lloyd had heard of Bai Chimian's temper, so even after being criticized, he continued with a good temper, "Mr. Bai, we are here to discuss cooperation sincerely. Why don't you first listen to what we want to cooperate on? Regardless of whether the cooperation is successful or not, as a token of our sincerity, we will give you a ninth-level beast core."
As he said this, he asked the person next to him to open the gift box he brought with him, and inside was a dark red beast core.
Bai Chimian: "..."
After hearing Lloyd's words, Bai Chimian didn't even bother to mock him. He raised his chin slightly with a strange expression and glanced at the top of their heads, "Ninth level?"
Lloyd nodded immediately. Although he felt a little strange about the other person's wandering eyes, he felt relieved in his heart.
This is the ninth-level beast core that they had obtained with great difficulty. Even though Bai Chimian is now at the tenth level, the value brought by the beast core above the eighth level is something that no family or force would refuse.
Sure enough, Bai Chimian relented, "Then tell me."
Bai Zhao, who was hiding in the corner, could hear the indifference in his young master's tone, but he didn't immediately guess why the young master suddenly agreed.
Lloyd seized the opportunity to quickly project the information he had brought. "This is some of Huo Xiao and Han Zi's recent actions. You can take a look."
Even before watching the content of the video, Bai Chimian's face showed a hint of annoyance just by hearing the names of these two people.
The culprits that made you unable to sleep for seven days!
It would be strange if he had a good face.
However, Lloyd misunderstood and thought Bai Chimian disliked them because of the Contract Master issue. This was the effect he wanted. "Mr. Bai, I believe you have heard about what's going on between them recently. The two of them are now incompatible. As far as I know, even Jiang Lingrui has gotten involved in their fight in recent days. These videos and photos can't be fake."
Bai Chimian remained noncommittal. His obsession with his image forced him to stifle a yawn. "...What do you want to do?"
"Mr. Bai is a smart man. You know that our three districts already have a small population, and now we have just merged into the United City. We don't have much say in the United City. Our situation is very awkward. In order to survive, we have to put in more effort."
Lloyd's words were rather vague. Even if there were only a few people left in the three major districts, it would not be as he said.
It's simply that they feel suppressed by Jiang Lingrui and can no longer be in charge of the entire region as they did before.
If Chen Qian's family were still the same as before, they might not dare to have such thoughts.
But now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that both Bai Chimian and Han Zi are acting independently. Although the Huo family does not get involved, they are definitely not surrendering.
Even if Jiang Lingrui was in charge of the entire United City, he would not be able to command these people.
Lloyd originally just wanted to use Huo Xiao to create some false commotion to alienate them, but before he could put in any effort, Huo Xiao and the other three actually started fighting.
It was the kind where they kidnapped people and then beat them to death.
Originally Lloyd was planning to go to the Huo family, but now with such a good opportunity, he decisively chose to cooperate with Bai Chimian. Only when the water becomes more and more muddy will they have a chance.
Seeing that Bai Chimian didn't show any signs of abnormality, Lloyd continued, "From what I know, Jiang Lingrui is a support type. His combat power is simply not enough to convince the crowd, and many people want to squeeze him out. Han Zi, you also know how crazy the things he did were. Many strong members of the Mutant Association died at his hands. And Huo Xiao is a man who relies solely on brute force and has no brains to deal with these things.
The entire United Cities, that is, you, are absolutely worthy of being the ruler of the United Cities, both in terms of strength and ability.
Mr. Bai, as long as you are willing, our entire Orlov family is at your disposal.
I wonder if you are interested in this cooperation?"
Bai Chimian raised his eyebrows slightly, "You said it so blatantly, aren't you afraid that I will tell Jiang Lingrui?"
Lloyd smiled appropriately. "Mr. Bai, I heard there's an old saying here: 'Even if a deal fails, friendship remains.' I believe you won't do that for the sake of this beast core, right?"
Besides, since we dare to come, we must be well prepared."
Bai Chimian seemed to be choked by his words, his expression becoming increasingly strange. "I agree to the cooperation you mentioned. Bai Zhao, go and discuss the follow-up cooperation with this... oh, Mr. Lloyd of the Orlov family."
His attitude was too casual, as if he was just dismissing anyone.
Bai Zhao walked out from the background and said respectfully, "Okay, Master."
Lloyd finally lost his temper. Several people around him were also angry because of Bai Chimian's attitude. One of them even wanted to attack directly, but was stopped by Lloyd. "Mr. Bai, I don't think what I want to discuss with you is a trivial matter that can be handled casually by a servant, right?"
