In the end, Xu Qun could only helplessly shout loudly in the direction of the Star Lord and Li Yu, whom he had offended:
"Lord Li Yuxing! As long as you save us, the Changsheng Sect is willing to unconditionally help you achieve immortality!"
The scene fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes followed Xu Qun's gaze to the young man in the distance.
Lu Fan quickly avoided eye contact and stood to Li Yu's side.
Li Yu!
Star Lord?
Even Ye Lingxiao, who was about to take action, was taken aback upon hearing this and turned to look at Li Yu.
Ye Lingxiao had naturally heard of this name, but he never expected that Li Yu, the former hero of Zhongzhou, would not only be a city lord like him, but also a star lord of Zhongzhou! It was because he had been staying in Ningcheng that he was somewhat ignorant and underestimated Li Yu.
If it really is the rumored Li Yu, with Li Yang and Changsheng Sect joining forces, the gathering of so many people in Ningcheng is extremely disadvantageous for him.
Seeing Ye Lingxiao looking over, Li Yu quickly raised her hand and gestured for him to continue, clearly indicating that she did not intend to interfere.
Xu Qun felt a chill in his heart, instantly realizing that his suggestion held no appeal for Li Yu.
Seeing Ye Lingxiao turn back, Xu Qun's mind raced. Noticing the enormous sea beast Li Yu was carrying behind him, he suddenly realized something and shouted urgently again:
"I know where the Deepsea Watchers are!"
"I can find sea monsters! I also know white crows! I know so much more..."
Xu Qun kept shouting, fearing he would never have another chance to speak. He hoped that if he could say even one piece of information that Li Yu would be interested in, he would not die today!
Just as Ye Lingxiao's attack was about to land, Li Yu suddenly walked over, slowly bent down, and looked at Xu Qun with eyes as sharp as knives:
"What did you just say? White Crow?"
Xu Qun immediately saw a glimmer of hope, as if grasping at the last straw, and pointed at the sea beast, replying:
"It's Bai Ya! That sea beast was given to our Changsheng Sect by Bai Ya!"
Li Yu narrowed his eyes, recalling the teleportation ability Bai Ya had used when she escaped.
Although the intelligence from Zhongzhou says that Bai Ya is in Shishan, if the other party keeps escaping, even if he has the Golden Eyes, it will take a lot of time to track down Bai Ya. If he can use Xu Qun's identity as a partner of the Changsheng Sect to lure Bai Ya here, it will definitely save a lot of trouble.
"I hate liars the most, especially those who try to lie to me," Li Yu warned coldly.
"You'd better tell the truth, or else..."
"It's the truth! I'm telling the truth!" Xu Qun assured him repeatedly, afraid that Li Yu would turn around and leave.
Seeing Li Yu intervene, Ye Lingxiao frowned and questioned:
"Li Yu, if you want to interfere, don't blame me for not giving you face."
Li Yu turned to look at Ye Lingxiao, a strange smile playing on her lips:
"Lord Ye, please don't be impatient. I'm only interested in this person. As for the rest of the Changsheng Sect members, you can kill or torture them as you please. I won't interfere."
These words sank Xu Qun's heart to the bottom. He never expected that Li Yu only intended to save him.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other elders from the Longevity Sect also instantly darkened.
In the past, they were willing to pay any price in pursuit of immortality, let alone the chance to survive.
In order to survive, they would be willing to betray the Changsheng Sect even now.
Some elderly people, unwilling to sit idly by and wait for their fate, immediately followed Xu Qun's example and shouted at Li Yu:
"I also have value; I know the secret to immortality!!"
Li Yu remained unmoved and continued to control Xu Qun using golden energy threads.
"I don't want to die! Lord Li Yu, I'm willing to agree to all your conditions!" another old man shouted.
Li Yu didn't turn around, but instead grabbed Xu Qun, who was tied up.
"I have money!" came another shout.
Just as Li Yu was about to turn and leave, she suddenly froze on the spot!
Li Yu slowly turned around: "How much money do you have?"
"......"
An eerie silence instantly fell over the scene.
Not only the person who spoke, but everyone present stared at Li Yu in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe their ears.
A dignified Central Plains Star Lord and Kangcheng City Lord, how could someone of such status possibly value such material possessions and petty gains?
The old man from the Longevity Sect who had spoken paused for a few seconds before reacting and hurriedly replied, "Very... a lot! I have a lot of money!" He dared not give a specific amount, fearing that he might say too little and displease Li Yu.
Seeing that Li Yu reacted to the money, the other elderly men nearby hurriedly joined in, shouting:
"I have money too!"
"I have it too, I can give you all my possessions."
"I have a very valuable treasure!"
More and more people from the Longevity Sect started shouting.
Upon hearing this, Li Yu became even more excited, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Looks like I've had quite an unexpected windfall today," Li Yu murmured to himself.
Lu Fan, who was walking up behind, overheard this and couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You're really planning to take their money?"
"Why not?" Li Yu shrugged.
Kangcheng is still developing and needs funds. These old guys must have a lot of valuable things on them, and they're willing to give them all up to survive.
Li Yang, looking thoughtfully at Li Yu from a distance, suddenly had a new idea in his mind.
Seeing Li Yu's repeated obstruction, Ye Lingxiao's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the last bit of patience in his heart was completely exhausted.
He even felt that Li Yu was deliberately putting on an act in front of him, and that every time she tried to stop him, it was like a carefully choreographed play.
"This farce should end!" Ye Lingxiao snorted impatiently. "Rescuing people from Ningcheng won't be that simple."
After seeing Li Yu's stance clearly, Ye Lingxiao decided to no longer hold back.
