Chapter 548: Suspicious Formation Reveals the Secret
"Haha, the beast soul beads you gave me last time are really useful."
"Especially the one that sealed the remaining soul of [Red Nine Head], it is really extraordinary. Lan Yuchang was just a mortal who was a little stronger and knew some martial arts."
"But after absorbing it, his combat power increased dramatically. Our ordinary Divine Transformation cultivators are no match for him when we spar with him."
"According to Lan Yuchang, this was even though he himself had reservations."
"If he lets go and fights, tut tut ..."
Li Fan spoke without restraint or reservation, and talked incessantly.
When Xiaoqing heard the name [Chi Jiutou], her expression changed slightly.
Then I heard from Li Fan that someone had been able to withstand the Nine-headed Bird's tremendous violence and successfully absorbed the beast soul bead.
Her body trembled slightly, and she blurted out, "Impossible! How can a mortal withstand the murderous aura of that guy..."
Li Fan decisively showed an unhappy look on his face: "You are surprised by what you have never seen. Our Federation of All Worlds has many talented people. What kind of extraordinary people don't we have?"
"Just because your empire can't find a suitable candidate doesn't mean we can't."
"You don't think that just because you traded with us once, you can be compared with us, right?"
Li Fan was like a rookie who had just started out. He said whatever he wanted to say directly and had no idea what "euphemism" meant.
He said with disdain: "We, the Federation of All Worlds, are doing business with you in order to help you."
"There are so many small worlds around Xuanhuang Realm, your family is not a big deal."
"It is you who need the help of the Federation of All Worlds, not us who need you."
…
When Xiaoqing heard Li Fan's extremely unpleasant words, her face turned extremely ugly.
But in the end she held back and didn't lose her temper.
Li Fan kept talking, but found that the other party did not respond. Perhaps he felt that it was boring, so he stopped halfway.
Xiaoqing looked at Li Fan with some hostility.
However, after this incident, she no longer had any doubts about Li Fan's identity.
She continued the previous topic and asked softly, "Fellow Daoist, since everyone thinks that the transaction is beneficial to both parties, why did you make the decision to terminate it so suddenly?"
Li Fan sighed and told the truth: "It was really due to force majeure."
He leaned forward slightly, came closer, and whispered, "According to our intelligence, a war is likely to break out between the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association in the near future."
"You know, the time when a war is about to break out is often the most tense time for both sides."
"As the saying goes, before you can stop the internal troubles, you must first stop the external troubles. If the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance finds any trace of our Ten Thousand Worlds Federation at this time, they might concentrate their forces to wipe us out before fighting the Five Elders in order to eliminate the internal troubles."
Li Fan shook his head, not feeling embarrassed at all: "To be honest, although we have always used the slogan of counterattacking the world of immortal cultivation, our organization is still a little behind the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association. We cannot deny this."
"I still need to accumulate more strength, so I can only avoid the limelight for now."
Suddenly, Li Fan's face became a little excited again: "What's more, this is a rare opportunity. The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association haven't fought each other for many years."
"This war will surely be unprecedented in terms of scale and brutality. They will fight each other, while we will hide in the dark and fish in troubled waters."
"Maybe I can even take advantage of the situation and get some benefits."
Xiaoqing looked at Li Fan's complacent look, but in her heart she was somewhat skeptical about the so-called "imminent war" he mentioned.
The Empire also has its own sources of intelligence.
Over the years, although there are not many law thieves, they are spread all over the Xuanhuang Realm.
During the time that Xiaoqing returned to the world of immortal cultivation, she has already made contact with most of them.
Because of their existence, Xiaoqing actually has some understanding of the current situation in the Xuanhuang Realm.
As the saying goes, a strong wind starts from a small reed.
There must be a reason for the outbreak of war, right?
If the next war is really as brutal as the other side says.
Then we should be able to find some signs of war breaking out now.
"Maybe they missed some details..."
When Xiaoqing fell into deep thought, Li Fan didn't care at all what she thought.
Instead, he shamelessly asked Xiaoqing for the "Beast Soul Pearl".
"Oh, my brothers are all very jealous when I came here this time. They insisted that I bring some local specialties back with me."
"Master Qing, Master Qing."
"Anyway, your Empire has as many of these as you want, so just give me some. I can report back later."
Looking at Li Fan's playful face, Xiao Qing almost laughed out of anger.
But there is no need to bother with such people.
Xiao Qing thought so, took out two beast soul beads equivalent to the strength of a golden elixir, and handed them over.
And the other party was still not satisfied and kept asking for more.
This time Xiaoqing didn't tolerate it anymore and directly ordered them to leave.
"I really don't have any beast soul beads with me, so please go back, fellow Taoist!"
Li Fan's expression changed very quickly.
He was calling Xiaoqing "Great Master" just now, but when he heard Xiaoqing say that, his face immediately turned gloomy.
With a cold snort, he flew away without even saying hello.
"How come there are still people like this in the Federation of All Worlds?"
"If it were in our empire, he would have been thrown to feed the world-shattering whales long ago!"
Xiaoqing was so angry that her teeth were itching.
"It's still the same fellow Taoist from last time."
She recalled the previous transaction process where both parties were very satisfied with each other.
The subsequent handover of materials was also handled very properly.
"It's a pity that the person must be busy and can't get away." Xiaoqing thought with some regret.
Retracting her thoughts, she began to contact the empire's spies and inquired whether there was anything unusual in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance recently.
Are there any signs that war is about to break out?
Soon, replies came from his spell thieves.
Everything was the same as usual, and there was no news of war at all.
Now it was Xiaoqing's turn to be unsure.
"Is it true or false?"
——
Just when the Imperial Saint Master was feeling a little troubled, He Zhenghao had already counted the money until his hands cramped.
With a big smile on his face, every time he received a contribution transfer, he would record it truthfully and reply to the creditor very responsibly.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Qin, the contribution points have been received. Just wait for your fortune!"
"Brother Wei, I have written down your 10,000 contribution points. I know you saved this by selling everything you have. It's the same for everyone. Don't worry, is it possible that the secret envoy will let you down?"
