After Ye Liuyun left, another scream reverberated from within Nuanxiang Pavilion.
It was the dancer who returned and discovered the corpse of the third Vajra.
By then, Hua Xiangyuan realized that Ye Liuyun had taken out more than one Vajra guard that night.
The more Hua Xiangyuan thought about it, the more curious she beca. How did Ye Liuyun know about this secret matter that she was not aware of? And he managed to accomplish it without making a sound.
This only made her more eager to cooperate with Ye Liuyun. So she once again inquired Ye Liuyun.
This ti, Ye Liuyun replied. However, he only said: "You play your guqin, I'll drink my wine, we won't disturb each other!"
"I want to talk about cooperation with you!" This ti, Hua Xiangyuan directly stated her intention.
"What can you give ?" Ye Liuyun asked directly.
"I can help you kill Xuan Yuanyu!" Hua Xiangyuan said.
Yet, Ye Liuyun responded sarcastically, "Who said I wanted to kill Xuan Yuanyu?"
"How else do you explain those Vajras?" Hua Xiangyuan refused to believe.
"What does it have to do with ?" Ye Liuyun retorted.
"You…" Hua Xiangyuan was speechless. Seeing Ye Liuyun's denial, she found it impossible to continue the conversation.
After that, no matter what she said, Ye Liuyun paid no more attention to her. He imdiately burned the Sound Transmission Talisman.
He felt that this woman might have set her sights on He Lianqiang and Xuan Yuanyu, and she might have bigger plots behind. Therefore, he thought it was better to keep a distance from her.
After his cultivation, Ye Liuyun left the royal mansion as usual before dinner, heading for Mystique Mart.
At this point, the royal city was already shook.
Three out of the Eight Vajras had died. Such a thing had never happened before.
Over the past two days, five have died. All their deaths were similar in cause, except for the sixth Vajra, who was killed by He Lianqiang's guard.
If the murderer wasn't targeting Xuan Yuanyu, no one would believe it.
Xuan Yuanling had long received the news and knew that Ye Liuyun would co today, so she was waiting for him.
However, when Xuan Yuanling t Ye Liuyun this ti, she suppressed her curiosity and asked directly, "Which type of Alora Crystals do you want?"
"Two of the Powers of Heaven and Earth, two of the Powers of Space, and two of the Powers of Fla," Ye Liuyun said straight away.
"Are you cultivating those powers? Or are they for soone else?" Xuan Yuanling couldn't help blurting out the question.
She felt it was quite extravagant for Ye Liuyun to give such a large piece of Alora Crystals to others.
Ye Liuyun just smiled, "You're asking too many questions."
"You... okay, keep waiting!" Xuan Yuanling, a bit annoyed, stomped her foot and went to get the Alora Crystals for Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun was right. Xuan Yuanling was indeed overstepping her bounds. As to how to use the crystals, Ye Liuyun didn't need to heed her advice.
After receiving the Alora Crystals, Ye Liuyun didn't hang around. He left Mystique Mart, heading once again to the tavern to gather information.
After eating, in order to avoid attracting attention, he had to go to Nuanxiang Pavilion again.
However, this ti he rented a private room, rushing to start his cultivation.
But before he had been cultivating for long, soone knocked on the door.
"Is it that Demon here again?" Ye Liuyun thought to himself and opened the door.
Sure enough, it was Hua Xiangyuan and her maid standing at the door.
Without a word, Ye Liuyun closed the door imdiately. Not wanting to be involved with them.
"Master Ye..."
Hua Xiangyuan couldn't even finish her greeting before Ye Liuyun closed the door on her, almost making her mad with frustration.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of knocking turned into the sound of banging.
Helpless, Ye Liuyun had to open the door again, but he blocked the entrance with his body, not intending to let Hua Xiangyuan enter.
"Do I disgust you that much, Mr. Ye? Even as one of the four great beauties of the royal city, you aren't even interested in hearing out?"
Hua Xiangyuan, her eyes filled with unshed tears, looked at Ye Liuyun. Naturally, she added an illusion to her words.
"If you cast another illusion on , I'll shut the door." Ye Liuyun declared bluntly.
"Fine!" Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangyuan imdiately discontinued her illusion, it was useless against him anyway.
But she leaned in closer. As Ye Liuyun recoiled, she took the opportunity to step into Ye Liuyun's room.
Ye Liuyun sighed without trying to stop them from entering the house.
"Master Ye," Hua Xiangyuan said with a smirk, "I just wanted to have a talk with you. Why are you behaving as if it's so big deal? If we couldn't co to terms, I wouldn't bother you anymore."
"Between you and , there's nothing to talk about at all. We are just not on the sa wavelength." Ye Liuyun said helplessly.
"What if I keep you company with so drinks? Anyway, you are alone tonight. I can be your company!" Hua Xiangyuan made the proposal without considering his feelings.
With that, she gave her maid a signal with her eyes.
The maid arranged the food and drinks on the table, then she gently withdrew from the room, closing the door behind her.
"Master Ye, please." Hua Xiangyuan gestured for him to take a seat.
Seeing he couldn't avoid her, Ye Liuyun thought it might be better to just make it clear with her. So he, too, sat down and poured himself a glass of wine.
Hua Xiangyuan took the wine glass and poured herself a drink, then raised her glass and toasted Ye Liuyun, "Congratulations, Master Ye, on your splendid victory!"
Ye Liuyun clinked glasses with her and directly drank it down.
The toast of Hua Xiangyuan was, in his view, not erroneous. He really did co out victorious.
"I don't know what your goal is, but honestly, I'm just a hired killer! So, we are not the sa." Ye Liuyun put down his wine glass and tried explaining to Hua Xiangyuan.
"An assassin?" Hua Xiangyuan asked, refilling Ye Liuyun's glass.
"Not a professional one, just earning resources." Ye Liuyun clarified.
"What if I offer you money in exchange for your services?" Hua Xiangyuan inquired.
"You're free to na your price as well!" Ye Liuyun said straightforwardly.
"Oh? What were the prices for the Eight Vajra, for instance?" Hua Xiangyuan showed interest.
Taking out a large fla Alora Crystal, Ye Liuyun answered, "One of them was worth two crystals of this size."
The example was given to Hua Xiangyuan so she could assess the value. If a bodyguard was that expensive, hiring soone to kill He Lianqiang, or Xuan Yuanyu, would surely be extravagantly priced.
If she couldn't afford it, she would stop bothering him in the future.
"For the head of Xuan Yuanyu, I'll offer you a hundred crystals of this size!" Hua Xiangyuan didn't hesitate and made her offer directly.
Ye Liuyun paused for a mont, then retorted, "Do you think I will agree just by your word?"
Unexpectedly, Hua Xiangyuan imdiately took out twenty large crystals of various attributes.
"Consider these as a down paynt, okay?" Hua Xiangyuan firmly declared.
"You were serious?" Ye Liuyun was rather taken aback.
"I have a younger sister, not yet of age, who was injured by Xuan Yuanyu! Her cultivation has greatly diminished, and she has lost... lost the chance to improve. So, I am determined to seek revenge no matter the cost.
However, my own strength is too weak to be a match for Xuan Yuanyu. His cultivation perhaps has reached the fourth level."
Hua Xiangyuan explained to Ye Liuyun.
"Xuan Yuanyu is indeed in the initial stage of the fourth level." Ye Liuyun stated confidently.
"But you said that your sister has lost her chance to transform?" Ye Liuyun asked further.
