Chapter 70
Everyone who followed Xiao Li knew that he was a vicious person, but this scene still hurt them deeply.
They couldn't say they were brothers who had been through thick and thin together. Their relationship with Xiao Li was only one of interests. They couldn't accept Xiao Li's treatment and were afraid that they would be the next ones to be dragged to take the blame.
Xiao Li was a very good person and he noticed something was wrong at the first moment.
He was not at all panicked. Instead, he turned around and said to those who wanted to back out, "You need to think clearly. Do you want to continue to help Xiao, or go back empty-handed?"
When it comes to profit, Xiao Li doesn't believe that these desperate criminals will not risk their lives for him.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, those who had been wavering began to waver again.
Yes, without the help of the Xiao family, they would not be able to break through their cultivation and would die sooner or later.
It would be better to give it a try. With so many people helping the young master of the Xiao family to obtain the treasure, he can break through the barrier of cultivation by himself. The risk is much smaller.
Xiao Li raised the corner of his mouth and said to the trapped Leng Qingqiu, "I, Xiao, am not one to resort to violence. If you are willing to give me the Fire Crystal Core, I will ensure that you can leave safely."
Leng Qingqiu glanced at Ye Lan behind him, and Ye Lan's scalp tingled under his stare.
【Hey, how come this fire has burned my head again. 】
You can't betray me.
Ye Lan was speechless. Weren't these people looking for trouble with the traitor? Why were they bringing up the Fire Crystal Core again?
He had no recollection of what happened after he killed the Fire Lion. He only heard Leng Qingqiu's emotionless voice coldly say, "Fire Crystal Core? I don't have one."
Xiao Li's face, which was still smiling one second ago, turned bloodthirsty the next. "You don't have it? How is that possible? We've been tracking you with a compass, how could we be wrong! If you don't want to take it out, don't blame me for taking action!"
"What are you waiting for! Go!" Xiao Li gave the order.
The people behind him all used their best skills, and all the fancy attacks came towards Leng Qingqiu.
Leng Qingqiu made a move, and the dragon on his wrist flew out from his wrist. It cooperated with Leng Qingqiu's sword and directly broke the trap set by Hao Wen.
"Hahaha, with your mediocre skills, you still want to trap my master? What are you thinking about?" The dragon changed its shape and opened its big mouth to mock the group of people.
In an instant, the small body of the dragon turned into a huge size in front of the crowd.
The people behind Xiao Li immediately lost their attention. They were only cultivators in the Golden Core stage and there was no way they could defeat the dragon that had become a real dragon!
"Brother Xiao, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the enemy is too strong, and I, our cultivation is not enough!"
"Yes, yes, Brother Xiao. How can we fight like this?"
Xiao Li's face turned pale. He originally wanted to kill someone and steal the treasure, but he really didn't expect that this person actually had a backup plan.
What about Jiaolong? It is just one step away from transforming into a true dragon. One step makes a world of difference!
"What are you afraid of? It's just a flood dragon, not a real dragon! There are so many of us, how can we be afraid of this beast?"
The dragon's beard stood up in anger. "Beast? You actually called me a beast? You are the beast, and your whole family are beasts. Since your mouth stinks so much, then I, Grandpa, will help you rinse your mouth!"
The dragon always thought that he was a proud being, but he was scolded as soon as he made a majestic appearance.
Its murderous intention has already arisen, and today is destined to be a restless day.
