Yang Haoran gazed at the five demonic pills floating in mid-air, and with just a slight sense of them, he was certain that all five were high-grade demonic pills worthy of a great demon.
The only difference was that the power fluctuations emitted by the five pills varied in strength due to the differing abilities of their previous owners. However, it was clear that all five were indeed high-grade demonic pills.
"These five pills may vary in strength, but they are undoubtedly all high-grade demonic pills. I hope Yang Divine Envoy won't be too picky," Fair Young Man said with a smile.
"Heh heh, you're worrying too much. I'm not particular about these things. As long as they're high-grade demonic pills, they're all good."
Yang Haoran smiled and snapped his fingers, causing the five pills to suddenly disappear and be stored in his independent space.
Fair Young Man didn't show any signs of regret as he watched Yang Haoran collect the pills. Instead, he turned his gaze to Bai Xue, his eyes shining with excitent.
The reason he hadn't arrived earlier was that he wanted to wait until Yang Haoran had finished fighting the two great demons, and then swoop in to take advantage of the situation. However, he hadn't expected the battle to end so quickly, and his plan to take advantage of the situation had fallen through, leaving him feeling sowhat disappointed.
Apart from his disappointnt, he also had so doubts. Earlier, he had sensed three streams of demonic energy, but after the battle, one of them hadn't dissipated. With these doubts in mind, he followed Master Wu and the others as they left, bringing Ye Zhiqiu and the woman with him. He wanted to figure out what was going on and find an opportunity to obtain the two great demons' pills and corpses from Yang Haoran.
As they ascended the mountain, he was stunned by his first glance at Bai Xue. Whether human or demon, he had never seen anyone as breathtakingly beautiful as her. At that mont, he had only one thought: he had to get his hands on this demonic woman no matter what.
He hadn't acted imdiately because he had sensed that Yang Haoran's relationship with the demonic woman was unusual. If he had made a move on her, Yang Haoran would definitely have intervened. So, he had restrained his impulses and instead looked for an opportunity to talk to Yang Haoran alone, hoping that Yang Haoran wouldn't interfere.
Initially, he had offered to trade for the two great demons' pills and corpses, but that was just an act. His true intention was Bai Xue, and the trade was just a pretext.
On their way up the mountain, he had specifically asked Ye Zhiqiu about Yang Haoran, wanting to be prepared. Ye Zhiqiu had only replied with four words: "He's only interested in benefits."
Although Ye Zhiqiu's response was simple and direct, it had left Fair Young Man very satisfied.
In his view, people who were only interested in benefits were the easiest to manipulate, so he thought it wouldn't be difficult to get the two great demons' corpses from Yang Haoran.
After seeing Bai Xue, the two great demons' corpses had beco less important. His main target had shifted to her, and seeing Yang Haoran's good relationship with her, he had initially felt so trouble. However, recalling Ye Zhiqiu's evaluation of Yang Haoran, he thought the matter shouldn't be as difficult as he had imagined, and Yang Haoran could be manipulated.
Under his self-assured performance, he believed Yang Haoran was walking right into his trap, and he was getting closer to his goal.
Only, he hadn't expected Yang Haoran to be even more greedy than he had imagined, asking for ten high-grade demonic pills as a reward for his help.
At that mont, he was shocked, but his heart was still filled with joy. As Yang Haoran had said, Bai Xue's value was far more than ten high-grade demonic pills. In his mind, he could already imagine the imnse profit he would make by selling her after he was done with her.
Fair Young Man's thoughts were simple: he would keep Bai Xue for himself first, and when he was tired of her, he would sell her at a high price. Compared to this, paying Yang Haoran ten high-grade demonic pills was a small price to pay.
Although ten high-grade demonic pills were a significant amount for many demon hunters, his family didn't lack such resources.
Moreover, even if he promised to pay Yang Haoran, once the deal was done, Yang Haoran would no longer have any value to him. Whether he paid the remaining amount or not would be up to him, and he didn't believe Yang Haoran had the courage to co to his house to demand paynt.
Fair Young Man thought he was very clever, having calculated everything perfectly. So, he appeared very happy, especially when he looked at Bai Xue, his heart racing uncontrollably with excitent. However, there was one thing he hadn't calculated, because he had never thought such a thing would happen to him.
"Yang Divine Envoy, you've already received the demonic pill, isn't it ti to get to work now?"
Suppressing the excitent and impulse in his heart, Fair Young Man reluctantly shifted his gaze from Bai Xue's body to Yang Haoran.
"Heh heh, of course, I'll take your money and help you eliminate the disaster. Don't worry, I won't just take the money without doing anything. That would ruin my reputation."
Yang Haoran smiled and opened his heaven soul.
As the heaven soul opened, a powerful energy fluctuation burst out from his body, and a mass of Yin Qi rolled around him.
Feeling such a powerful energy fluctuation, Fair Young Man was shocked. He hadn't expected Yang Haoran's strength to be so formidable. During Yang Haoran's previous battle with the Cat Demon, he hadn't sensed Yang Haoran releasing such a terrifying energy fluctuation.
He couldn't have sensed it, because when Yang Haoran opened his heaven soul, he was also within a restriction barrier. How could he have sensed it?
Yang Haoran's strength exceeded his imagination, and he instinctively felt sothing was off. Before he could figure out where this feeling ca from, Yang Haoran spoke up.
"Stabilize the barrier first, the one you set up is about to collapse!"
Yang Haoran hadn't attacked the barrier, but simply opening his heaven soul had caused the sudden surge in energy fluctuation, which made the barrier surrounding them appear with dense cracks, on the verge of shattering.
In the past, if a barrier broke, it would just break, no big deal. But now, Fair Young Man was shocked by Yang Haoran's formidable strength, and Yang Haoran's sudden reminder caught him off guard. He didn't even have ti to think, and hastily mobilized the star spiritual power within him, pouring a large amount into the barrier.
With the massive infusion of star spiritual power, the originally crumbling barrier gradually stabilized, and the dense cracks quickly healed.
As the barrier stabilized, Fair Young Man's brain finally reacted. He continued to pour star spiritual power into the barrier with both hands, but his mind suddenly thought of a question: Why did Yang Haoran want him to protect the barrier and not let it break?
Was it to avoid startling the snake in the grass?
Thinking this, Fair Young Man felt it was possible. Yang Haoran had just said that with his help, they would be absolutely safe. It seed Yang Haoran was preparing to catch Bai Xue off guard, and then quickly capture her alive.
After all, the two were friends, and Bai Xue would never have dread that Yang Haoran would suddenly attack her. When the ti ca, she would be so shocked that her reaction would be slow.
In this way, even if Bai Xue had a way to save her life or seek help, it would be useless, because she wouldn't have ti to use those thods.
Able to think this through in such a short ti, Fair Young Man felt proud of his cleverness and had so self-satisfaction.
"Heh heh, if I'm not mistaken, Yang Divine Envoy is planning to catch her off guard, right?"
Fair Young Man poured star spiritual power into the barrier while speaking to Yang Haoran.
Yang Haoran smiled and nodded in response, giving a affirmative answer.
"That's right, I do plan to catch soone off guard. It's just that its not 'her' but 'him'."
This sentence left Fair Young Man bewildered. He didn't understand what Yang Haoran ant, when suddenly a black light flashed in the Yin Qi beside Yang Haoran. Then, he felt a chill in his waist, and the barrier suddenly shattered.
Fair Young Man had been facing Yang Haoran directly, even when pouring star spiritual power into the barrier. The distance between them was very close, so they could see each other's every move, even every expression, very clearly.
However, Yang Haoran hadn't made any move, and his expression hadn't changed, but the black light that flashed by had been caught by Fair Young Man's eyes.
What was this sudden black light, he didn't have ti to think. Why had the stable barrier suddenly shattered, he also didn't understand. And what did Yang Haoran's previous sentence an, he was even more unclear.
One second later, he understood, but his consciousness beca blurry.
He opened his eyes wide, his expression terrified, staring fixedly at Yang Haoran.
He wanted to say sothing, but his mouth had just barely moved when a burst of fresh blood suddenly sprayed out from his waist.
