344: Chapter 344: Negotiating Terms 344: Chapter 344: Negotiating Terms Soon, he arrived at the hotel’s top floor.
“I need to see the boss,” he said urgently.
But several subordinates stopped him.
“The boss is inside discussing official business with the City Lord; there shall be no disturbances.
Whatever you have can wait till later.”
Lin Long frowned.
City Lord, damn City Lord, nothing but a toy woman that Sha Bao keeps.
But he didn’t dare to disturb; Sha Bao had a violently irritable temper, big issue or small, if he was in the mood you wouldn’t want to bother him, because he would cut you down without question.
He could only wait at the door.
…
Ti went by quickly.
Lin Long vanished and never returned, while the table full of dishes that Xiao Zhan had ordered was served first.
Xiao Zhan swept the area with his Perception, finding it odd that they hadn’t been poisoned.
Glancing at the dishes, they had the full package of looks, scent, and taste; worthy of the gang leader’s personal kitchen, the standard was indeed quite good.
Well then, no need to stand on ceremony.
The two started eating leisurely.
Soon, the two had almost finished their al, but at this ti, Lin Long still hadn’t co down.
Instead, more and more diners were gathering around, but to call them diners at this mont seed inappropriate; spectators would be a more fitting term.
Xiao Zhan leisurely sipped on his wine.
Although Sha Bao hadn’t co down, in Xiao Zhan’s Perception, soone had been watching them from the top floor of the hotel for a long ti.
It was a bald hulk with a scorpion tattoo on his head, his muscles well-developed and his limbs sturdy.
He was casually standing there with a cigarette in his mouth, his relaxed posture exuding a lion-like latent power.
A Fourth Grade aura.
Beside him stood Lin Long.
If nothing unexpected, this bald man should be Sha Bao.
“Boss, are you going to go down to see him?” Lin Long couldn’t help but ask, as Sha Bao had been standing there for a while.
Sha Bao didn’t answer him, instead, his gaze kept spinning around Ye Youlong, with a lascivious glint flickering in his eyes.
A cigarette was clutched in his mouth, and one hand kept touching his chin back and forth.
“What a pri beauty.”
A voice of admiration.
Then he asked, “Do you know what their strength is?”
“I don’t know, but they can block bullets and co out unscathed.”
“Don’t show off your ignorance as intelligence,” Sha Bao snorted coldly.
Blocking bullets was nothing; it wasn’t any high-level skill.
“However, this young lad’s boldness in choosing the Life and Death Contract, especially with such a beautiful woman, indicates he must have so skills.”
After pondering for a mont, Sha Bao decided to go down and take a look.
“Since a beauty ca visiting, it’s only proper for to go down and see.
Otherwise, the beauty would feel so neglected.”
His top floor was only the fourth floor; soon, he arrived in front of Xiao Zhan.
He unceremoniously sat across from Xiao Zhan.
“Young man, is the al to your liking?”
“Not bad,” Xiao Zhan responded nonchalantly, without even lifting his head to look at him.
This extrely arrogant deanor instantly irked Sha Bao’s already volatile temper, but considering the beauty present, he still held back.
“Young man, to co to Nansha City alone and dare to eat the als prepared by our Nansha Gang, you really have quite the guts.”
“It’s alright,” Xiao Zhan continued indifferently, adding, “I’m not alone, I have my wife with .”
At the ntion of the word ‘wife,’ Sha Bao’s eyes imdiately lit up, and he glanced at Ye Youlong twice.
“I heard you’ve got sothing you need help with?”
“If you can help, that would be best.”
“Humph, there’s nothing I can’t do in Nansha City.
Tell , who are you looking for, a man or a woman?”
“Woman from the Longxia Federation, they’re characterized by their beauty but lack combat prowess,” Xiao Zhan said.
After a pause, he added, “Not as beautiful as my wife, though.”
Upon hearing this, a movent stirred in the depths of Sha Bao’s eyes.
A woman as beautiful as Ye Youlong?
Then she was a must-have for Sha Bao.
His face took on an air of difficulty, “A woman, and a beautiful one at that, with no combat abilities.
Are you sure she can survive a night in the Southern Barbarian Land?”
“I’m not sure, which is why I need you to find her,” Xiao Zhan replied.
Liu Xin had been kidnapped for several days now, and neither Xiao Zhan nor Qin Wanfeng knew whether she was dead or alive.
“What’s her na?”
“Liu Xin.”
Xiao Zhan was not afraid to reveal her real na.
First, without a real na, even if soone could find her, they would not be able to recognize her.
Second, if the other party knew of Liu Xin and pretended not to, Xiao Zhan was confident he could discern it from their subtle facial expressions.
Unfortunately, Sha Bao’s expression inford Xiao Zhan that he had never heard the na before.
“So, can you find her or not?” Xiao Zhan asked again.
“Of course, I can find anyone in the Southern Barbarian Land.
There’s no one that Sha Bao can’t locate, it’s just…”
“How much?” Xiao Zhan cut in directly, as things that could be resolved with money were not a problem.
Sha Bao did not rush to na his price, instead, he took a roundabout approach, “Is this Liu Xin woman important to you?”
“That’s none of your concern.
Your only job is to find her and inform .”
“Alright.”
Sha Bao clapped his hands, having intended to gather more information, which would have made negotiating better terms easier.
But Xiao Zhan’s attitude clearly left him little room to maneuver.
So he got straight to the point, “Finding her is not an issue, but you have to give what I want.
Money is useless to .”
“What do you want?”
“I want…
her!”
Sha Bao pointed unabashedly at Ye Youlong, his gaze unrestrained, “Just let your woman stay with while I search for Liu Xin, and I’ll agree to help you find her!”
Such an unscrupulous deal.
And if he doesn’t find her, she’ll just have to keep him company indefinitely?
A cold edge ford in the corners of Xiao Zhan’s eyes; those familiar with him would know he was already harboring a killing intent.
His grip on Ye Youlong’s hand tightened, as her murderous intent was even greater than his.
In her heart, she belonged to Xiao Zhan, and anyone else’s defilent was an invasion of her – and an insult to Xiao Zhan!
Only the death of the other could resolve this!
Xiao Zhan’s gaze moved behind Sha Bao, becoming even colder, as he asked, “Who is the Vice Gang Leader of Nansha Gang?”
No one answered.
They didn’t even grasp why Xiao Zhan was asking this question.
Xiao Zhan’s eyes swept the crowd again, “What, such a big gang and you don’t even have a Vice Gang Leader?”
“It’s .”
A lean man stepped forward from the crowd.
“Bang!”
The mont he stepped out.
An explosion rang out, a mist of blood suddenly burst in front of everyone!
The crowd panicked, frozen in place, not knowing what had occurred.
Blood mist, where did that co from?
It wasn’t until the mist dissipated that they realized Sha Bao, who had just been sitting across from Xiao Zhan, had vanished into thin air.
In his place, only trails of splattered blood remained.
