"Your Highness Xiao Han, it was all a misunderstanding before. Our Gu Bang family has always been friendly and would very much welcome Your Highness to visit us."
Before Black Crow could dart into the skeleton soldiers' defensive line and escape with Xiao Han, White Leopard glanced at the group of thugs, a look of disdain in his eyes, and then respectfully addressed Xiao Han.
Then, he took out a heavy money bag from his pocket.
"Here are three hundred silver coins, please accept them."
Under the increasingly stunned gazes of the crowd, the white leopard laughed, his menacing single-line scar making him appear fierce and grotesque.
At the same time, he took out another bag of money: "These are the silver shells that His Highness dropped, not a single one is missing."
"I killed your people, and you're going to pay me?"
Xiao Han was taken aback. He looked at the white leopard as if he were looking at a silly goose.
But soon, Xiao Han's eyes were overwhelmed by the light emanating from a bag of silver shells...
Black Crow, on the other hand, smiled.
Although the necromancer possessed formidable strength, it was the Third Miss who orchestrated things behind the scenes, cultivating Xiao Han's mysterious image and influencing Hruuf's decision.
"Am I hallucinating? Is this all fake?!"
The kobold who was the first to join them looked bewildered, while the group of thugs felt inexplicably heartbroken.
No one expected that the Gu Bang family would actually mend their relationship with Xiao Han and treat him as an honored guest.
And they missed an opportunity to follow the little fox!
"Your Highness, if it is convenient, please come and sit at our Amethyst Manor. I have already ordered the guards to prepare a feast."
Bai Bao laughed, feeling a strange pang of heartache when he saw the bag of silver shells Xiao Han was holding.
In this operation, Khrushchev invested a sum of money (by withholding White Leopard's salary) in an effort to repair his relationship with Xiao Han.
He wasn't afraid of a half-step gold-level necromancer, after all, his family wasn't without top experts. He was just wary of the mysterious background behind this little fox.
According to inquiries, there was no information about this little fox in the surrounding cities; it seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
Because of the mystery surrounding them, and because their relationship wasn't at the point of no return, the family's high-ranking members, after weighing the pros and cons, chose to bury the hatchet.
Therefore, he sent out the culprit who put Xiao Han on the assassination list—Bai Bao—to personally compensate the little fox, showing his sincerity.
In any case, the new recruits will replace White Leopard's position, so even if it means sacrificing White Leopard's life, it's still worth it.
"Ahem, it's too early for that."
Xiao Han shook his head and gestured for a skeleton soldier to take the bag of silver shells: "I felt the sincerity of the Gu Bang family. They are indeed friendly and kind, which is refreshing."
Feeling the heavy weight in the bag, Xiao Han smiled, confirming that the white leopard hadn't deliberately lured him in to attack.
Upon hearing this, the white leopard smiled, pleased with the other party's sensible manner.
"By the way, are these all your private slaves?"
Xiao Han pointed to a group of gray rats and asked.
"Yes, Your Highness the Little Fox, we will try our best to meet your needs," the white leopard replied.
"Could you give me this slave?" Xiao Han asked, pointing to Bai Ya.
The white leopard's lips twitched slightly as he looked nervously at the gray rat holding a piece of bread. Then he laughed and said, "Oh, my dear friend, of course! Not just one, but ten or even a hundred, no problem at all."
It's just the lowest level of "haze," timid, with very little potential, and its value is like roadside weeds.
"I have always been kind to others, gentle and easy-going, and friendly, and I strive to be a law-abiding citizen."
With Bai Bao's permission, Xiao Han squeezed the money pouch and smiled, "Thank you for the Gu Bang family's help. You won't regret this decision in the future."
"Alright, then from now on, Your Highness Xiao Han is our friend."
White Leopard replied, not forgetting the necromancer whose mental power erupted like a volcano.
But that terrifyingly powerful undead expert was loyal to the smiling Xiao Han in front of him, and coupled with his achievements in attacking and killing Ster and Shadow Leopard, he was indeed no ordinary person.
Most importantly, the other person's age!
He looks only fourteen years old, yet he was able to kill a Silver-rank Shadow Leopard, which is truly terrifying to think about.
"Ahem, well, His Highness Xiao Han has been hired as a steward of the Tulip Family and assigned to the Third City Management Guard Team."
As the two sides colluded and discussed further cooperation, Black Crow took out his job application and waved it smugly in front of White Leopard.
If he doesn't step forward soon, the little fox, who's lost his mind from the shock of the silver shell, will almost be dragged into the Gubang family's camp. When he goes back, Natasha will give him a severe scolding.
"Hey, when did I..."
"Oh, Xiao Han, didn't you know? Joining the Dark Raven Guild is like entering the review period of the city management guard team, and you can be officially appointed at any time."
Black Crow patted Xiao Han on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up: "Congratulations, Xiao Han, on successfully breaking through the encirclement of hundreds of people. You're treating us to dinner tonight!"
"Is that so?" Xiao Han asked, startled and suspicious.
"That's a real shame."
The white leopard, who was discussing how to kill the weasel and let the little fox take over, looked annoyed and regretful.
The Tulip family, focused on commercial interests, made their move, and the Little Fox was snatched up first.
However, now that relations have been repaired, excessive flattery would only belittle the Gu Bang family, and there is no rush to uncover Xiao Han's secret.
"Mission successful."
On the high platform, Blood Raven retrieved the crossbow that could pierce armor, a magical rune flashing as it was absorbed into his soul.
If White Leopard harbored murderous intent and forcefully killed Xiao Han, he would shoot White Leopard immediately beforehand, then escort Xiao Han to the Dark Raven Guild, completely drawing him into the Tulip family's... no, the Third Miss's camp.
