With a crackling sound, the ice in the air was instantly shattered by the Blood Drinking Sword and fell to the ground.
The fox demon clan chief, who was hiding somewhere, was not surprised at all by Liu Xiaoyuan's fighting prowess. Instead, he continued to ask, "Liu Xiaoyuan, I'll ask you one more time, where did you get this Blood Drinking Sword from? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Upon hearing the question posed by the patriarch of the fox demon clan, Liu Xiaoyuan knew that this matter was probably not so simple. The fact that the patriarch of the fox demon clan was so concerned about the Blood Drinking Sword meant that she knew about it and might have even seen someone use it before.
"I obtained the Blood Drinking Sword during a fortuitous encounter," Liu Xiaoyuan told a little lie.
Liu Xiaoyuan suspected that the fox demon clan leader knew the previous owner of the Blood Drinking Sword, and they might even have been close. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Liu Xiaoyuan decided to lie.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the patriarch of the fox demon clan immediately asked, "Quickly, tell me, where did you see this Blood Drinking Sword?"
Liu Xiaoyuan thought to himself, if he made up a place and asked this woman to take him there, wouldn't his lie be exposed? At that time, with his cultivation level, he would not be able to contend with her at all, so he must not reveal the name of the place.
“At the time, I didn’t know where it was. I only knew that I fell off a cliff and then walked into a cave. In the cave, I found a skeleton. I couldn’t bear to see the skeleton exposed in the cave, so I used my magic weapon to make a hole and buried the skeleton.”
"Right after I buried the other party's remains, the Blood Drinking Sword emerged from the ground, and I took it in my hand, making it my magic weapon."
Liu Xiaoyuan was quite skilled at making up lies; he could come up with them on the spot, and regardless of whether the other party believed him or not, that's what Liu Xiaoyuan said.
Of course, when Liu Xiaoyuan was making up this lie, he was also gambling that the person holding the Blood Drinking Sword might not be an enemy of the fox demon clan's patriarch.
If it were an enemy, wouldn't the patriarch of the fox demon clan be furious and seek revenge on Liu Xiaoyuan if he heard that Liu Xiaoyuan had buried the other's remains?
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan could only hope that his guess was correct, and that the patriarch of the fox demon clan had a very good relationship with the person who had previously wielded the Blood Drinking Sword.
After finishing his lie, Liu Xiaoyuan stood still, quietly waiting for the fox demon clan leader to speak.
Seeing that the patriarch of the fox demon clan hadn't spoken for a long time, Liu Xiaoyuan became a little worried. Could it be that he had really guessed wrong and that the patriarch of the fox demon clan had a grudge against the person who had wielded the Blood Drinking Sword before?
"Are you telling the truth?" Just as Liu Xiaoyuan was feeling uneasy, the voice of the fox demon clan chief rang out once again.
Hearing the question, Liu Xiaoyuan felt relieved. Now he was certain that the other party had a good relationship with the person who had previously wielded the Blood Drinking Sword.
If the relationship is bad, the patriarch of the fox demon clan won't waste words with you; he can just slap you away.
"Of course it's the truth, why would I lie to you?" Liu Xiaoyuan said without blinking.
"Can you give me this Blood Drinking Sword? I'll exchange it for other magical treasures," the fox demon clan chief asked in a negotiating tone.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan knew he was in trouble; the fox demon clan leader had his eye on his Blood Drinking Sword.
If Liu Xiaoyuan had known this would happen, he should have taken out the Flying Cloud Sword instead of the Blood Drinking Sword.
"Sorry, the Blood Drinking Sword is my magic weapon, I cannot exchange it!" Liu Xiaoyuan said firmly. Damn it, the Blood Drinking Sword was a system reward, it's a valuable item, how could I exchange it for other magic weapons?
Seeing that Liu Xiaoyuan was unwilling, the other party's voice turned cold again, and he said directly, "What if I insist on getting the Blood Drinking Sword from you?"
Liu Xiaoyuan took the Blood Drinking Sword in his hand and said loudly, "If you really want the Blood Drinking Sword, you'll have to kill me!"
Even at this point, Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't afraid anymore. Damn it, with the God-level Invincible System in his hands, what was there to be afraid of?
Besides, even if you're scared, it won't help. Do you think the other party will let you go?
Furthermore, the fox demon clan leader's endless chatter is actually a waste of breath; he has no intention of actually taking action. If he truly intended to fight, he would have acted directly instead of engaging in such pointless chatter.
"You're courting death!" The patriarch of the fox demon clan once again used the same trick, causing the surrounding temperature to drop to freezing point again, and the surrounding space instantly froze.
Liu Xiaoyuan's body was instantly frozen by the ice, and he couldn't move at all.
After being frozen by the ice, Liu Xiaoyuan only felt a slight chill creeping into his body, making him feel cold to the bone.
"It's so cold!" Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but shiver, but once his body was frozen solid, he couldn't move at all.
"Boy, I'll give you one more chance. Trade the Blood Drinking Sword to me!" the fox demon clan chief said once again.
"Dream on!" Liu Xiaoyuan immediately summoned a sword immortal in the late Nascent Soul stage through the God-level Invincible System. As soon as the sword immortal in the late Nascent Soul stage was summoned, his aura suddenly increased.
As soon as the sword immortal in the late Nascent Soul stage possessed him, the ice block that had been freezing Liu Xiaoyuan snapped and fell to the ground.
"Disappear!" Liu Xiaoyuan shouted, and the Blood Drinking Sword, leaving afterimages, instantly cut away all the ice in the room.
"You're actually a sword immortal at the late Nascent Soul stage?" the patriarch of the fox demon clan said in surprise.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Is this how your fox demon clan plunders and seizes things?"
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's question, the patriarch of the fox demon clan sighed and said, "So be it, so be it."
Then, the patriarch of the fox demon clan continued, "Please reconsider the cooperation I proposed earlier."
Liu Xiaoyuan knew what kind of cooperation the fox demon clan chief was proposing: accepting the fox demon clan's cultivation resources in exchange for helping them refine pills in the future.
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "I still have the same condition: you give me Su Xue, and I will refine pills for you whenever I have time."
The patriarch of the fox demon clan said without hesitation, "No, this condition is absolutely unacceptable."
Liu Xiaoyuan spread his hands and said, "Since it won't work, then we can't reach an agreement on this matter, and there's no need to continue discussing it."
As Liu Xiaoyuan spoke, he was about to walk out.
"Wait!" the patriarch of the fox demon clan suddenly called out.
Liu Xiaoyuan stopped and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"I hope you will reconsider what I said. This matter is beneficial to both you and our fox demon clan!" the fox demon clan chief pleaded in the end.
