Listening to Selro's words of gratitude, Xiao Chen curled his lips. This guy... is actually not as simple as he seems.

If Selro was really simple, he would have been killed by other [Sons of Darkness] long ago, and it would have been even more impossible for him to join forces with him last time to kill an enemy and reduce a competitor!

However, he was too lazy to expose it. There was nothing wrong in being a smart person as long as it did not affect his own interests.

"Xiao Chen, the value of the Black Blood Wand is now difficult to measure. The Dark Church has almost no items of the same value. Even if there are, I cannot own them."

Selro looked at Xiao Chen and said seriously.

"I said, no need, we are friends, I'll give it to you."

Xiao Chen shook his head. Thinking of the inheritance of the Three Emperors and the Wolf King's Order, he really wasn't very interested in the Black Blood Wand anymore.

"Xiao Chen, did you just... have the thought of killing me?"

Selro asked suddenly while stroking the black blood wand.

"hehe."

Xiao Chen smiled, knowing that this guy was a smart man.

"Yes, but after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. After all, we are friends... No matter how important the Black Blood Wand is, it is still a dead object, and friends are rare, right?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Selro looked at him deeply, then nodded: "Yes, we are friends... Xiao Chen, I recognize our friendship."

"Me too."

Xiao Chen smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"hehe."

Selro also stretched out his right hand and shook it with Xiao Chen.

"Actually, I didn't lie to you just now. I haven't told anyone about the news of the Black Blood Wand yet. One of the reasons is because you are a friend I recognize."

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded. He had used Selro several times, and Selro was also used by him.

Because from the beginning, Selro had been keeping an eye on him, and felt that if he wanted to find the Black Blood Wand, he had to start with him.

The result was... Selro saw the Black Blood Wand.

From this we can see that Selro is a smart man, or at least a capable man!

"The Black Blood Wand is now of great importance. If my father and the people of the Dark Church knew about this, they would do whatever it takes to get it back... Especially the lineage of the Great Elder. They already suspect you, so they will naturally not let go of this opportunity."

Selro looked at Xiao Chen and said.

"Of course, I also have my own concerns. Once the Great Elders find out what happened at that time, I will be in a lot of trouble."

"Um."

Xiao Chen nodded, thinking that this time Selro must be telling the truth.

"Give."

Selro handed the Black Blood Wand back to Xiao Chen.

"Um?"

Xiao Chen looked at Selro's actions and was a little surprised.

"You keep it for now. When I think of something to exchange for the Black Blood Wand, I'll come back to you to exchange it... At least, I know that the Black Blood Wand is with you."

Selro said to Xiao Chen.

"The most important thing is that the Black Blood Wand is not suitable to be shown at the moment. Even if I take it out... there are too many people watching me. If the Black Blood Wand is with me, I'm afraid it will be discovered! So, I'll leave it with you first. I'll find you when I need it."

"good."

Xiao Chen heard Selro say this and took the Black Blood Wand.

"Serro, aren't you afraid that I won't give it to you?"

"No."

Selro shook his head.

"The Black Blood Wand is not very useful in your hands. It can only be a weapon... With the Xuanyuan Sword, you have no shortage of weapons."

"hehe."

Xiao Chen smiled and put the black blood wand back into the plastic bag.

Selro looked at Xiao Chen's actions, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Couldn't he just keep the Black Blood Wand properly?

"Who would have thought that the Black Blood Wand would be packed in such a black plastic bag, don't you think?"

Xiao Chen put the black plastic bag aside and said to Selro.

Selro was startled, then nodded: "That's right."

"Haha, so, if even you didn't think of it, no one else would think of it either."

Xiao Chen said as he picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"Xiao Chen, you just said that you heard the secret of the Black Blood Wand from the Holy See of Light. Is that true?"

Selro is more concerned about this.

"No, it's your reaction that makes me suspicious."

Xiao Chen shook his head, too lazy to lie to Selro anymore.

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Selro smiled bitterly. It turned out that he had overreacted just now.

But at the same time, he also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was no problem with the core leaders of the Dark Church.

Otherwise, this matter will be serious.

"Tell me about what happened this time."

Xiao Chen looked at Selro with a serious expression.

"How much Hua Jin did you bring with you?"

"I brought thirteen of them, plus John and the others, there are twenty of them in total!"

Selro said to Xiao Chen.

"Of course, most of them are in the middle stage of Hua Jin, and there are only four who have reached the great perfection of Hua Jin... Do you know the strength of the Holy See of Light?"

"I don't know either, but it won't be too strong."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Haha, it seems that your status in the Dark Church has been improved again. Can you mobilize twenty masters of Huajin?"

"The Holy See of Light has so many experts here, there must be some important deployment. I came here this time to find out, otherwise there would not be so many experts in Huajin."

Selro said in a deep voice.

"I do know something about what you're talking about. They have a test base here, but I don't know where it is."

Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and handed one to Selro.

"Base? What kind of base?"

Selro asked hurriedly.

"An experiment that can improve strength... However, it probably hasn't been successful yet."

Xiao Chen lit a cigarette and said.

"Improve your strength?"

Selro frowned.

"I have received such news before. The Holy See of Light has had such a goal. I didn't expect that they would establish such a base in China... Is Obisco in charge?"

"That should be the case. They have cooperated with the Duanmu family."

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Serro, I only have one request when dealing with the Holy See of Light this time."

"What, tell me."

"Obisco, we must leave him alive."

Xiao Chen said seriously.

"He, I am useful."

Selro looked at Xiao Chen, but didn't ask what it was for. He nodded and said, "Okay, that's no problem. Besides him?"

"No more, please deal with the others as you wish."

Xiao Chen shook his head.

"Have you found out the whereabouts of the masters of the Holy See of Light?"

Selro asked.

"Not yet, wait for my news."

Xiao Chen took a puff of his cigarette.

"This time... I will make you achieve great success."

“…”

Selro didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy... asked him to be a thug, but kept asking him to make contributions.

After chatting for a while, the two prepared to leave.

"By the way, I heard... you now have the strength of a half-step innate?"

Selro asked, thinking of something.

"What did John and the others say?"

Xiao Chen smiled.

"Not really. I have been following you. Although I am not in China, I know your recent situation."

Selro shook his head.

"Of course, John told me about it after I got here."

Hearing Selro's words, Xiao Chen's eyelids twitched a few times, and he became much more serious: "Selro, I have a very serious question to ask you. You must answer me honestly, okay?"

"ah?"

Selro was a little frightened by Xiao Chen's serious look.

"Whatever your question is, ask it and I will answer you honestly."

"You...are you not gay? Is your sexual orientation normal?"

Xiao Chen looked at Selro and asked seriously.

“…”

Selro was speechless. He really didn't expect Xiao Chen to ask this question.

"Of course not, I am a normal person, just like you, I only like women, and I like beautiful women!"

"Sure?"

Xiao Chen asked again.

"Yes, sure!"

Selro nodded.

"Oh, then I feel relieved."

Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought you were not normal and had some idea about me. You scared me!"

“…”

Selro rolled his eyes and asked, "Who would have that kind of thought about you?"

"It's good that you don't have any thoughts. Don't pay attention to me for no reason in the future. It's easy to be misunderstood."

Xiao Chen said to Serlo.

"I'm just paying attention to you. I don't have as many thoughts as you do... I have a lot of women. How could I be interested in men?"

Serro stressed that he felt insulted as well.

"Yeah, that's good. We can discuss women more... I'm better at this."

Xiao Chen grinned.

Selro shook his head helplessly. It was not a good feeling to be misunderstood by others. It was even worse to be misunderstood in this aspect!

"Selro, do you want to have dinner together tonight?"

Xiao Chen asked Selro.

"No, let's talk about it tomorrow. I have something else to do."

Selro shook his head.

"John and the others also had other missions before, I want to know some of them."

"Okay, we can contact each other by phone anytime."

Xiao Chen nodded when he heard Selro say this.

"good."

Selro agreed, and the two left the cafe.

After Selro got in the car and left, Xiao Chen looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he put the Black Blood Wand into the bone ring.

In the bone ring, no one except him can take the Black Blood Wand away. Even if the Dark Church comes out in full force, it is impossible to take it away.

However, since he had promised Selro, he had no intention of taking it for himself.

"It's like a hen turning into a phoenix. In the blink of an eye... she has become awesome."

Xiao Chen muttered, this thing is almost the same as a person, who knows when someone will become awesome!

With his hands in his pockets, he strolled back to the hotel across the street.

He felt that he gained a lot from this meeting.

First, he knew the secret of the Black Blood Wand, and second, he and Selro had a frank and honest chat!

In the past, the two claimed to be friends, but in fact they had their own calculations.

Now, they are real friends.

Just as he was chatting with Bai Ye and the others, his cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Xiao Chen, the warriors will be sent to the base tonight. Aren't you going to send someone? You can send them over now."

Duanmu Qing's voice came from the receiver.

Hearing Duanmu Qing's words, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed: "Okay, I'll send the person over in a moment!"
