Why am I a villain and still have my own jokes?

As the saying goes, if you don't enter a tiger's den, you will not find a tiger's son.

Although Ling Yao felt that sneaking into the Temple of the God King with his own identity was tantamount to running into the tiger's den in a tiger's skin.

But before there was the temptation of real benefits (he was very poor in the sect after changing Chengying Sword), and then there was another big tiger, Qu Qianling, threatening him from behind... Cough, I can't let the uncle hear these words.

In any case, Ling Yao finally gave in, and took Xiao Lantiao, who didn't know that he was almost abandoned, and followed the attendants of the God King Temple to meet the priest Lang Yue.

Although the uncle didn't like him very much, he wouldn't stand by and die when he was working hard for her.

So compared to yesterday, at least now he still has Qu Qianling behind him, he has more confidence than before, and he has a retreat to save his life.

But the moment he saw Lang Yue in the God King Temple, Ling Yao still retreated in his heart.

Good guy, isn't this the same priest standing behind Da Xikang who was also the Skybreaker!Not to mention full of momentum, what a smiling tiger!

But fortunately, Ling Yao's expression management is still passable, after all, he didn't make a fool of himself in front of others.

Moreover, now that Lang Yue wants to ask him and win him over, he can't show his timidity first.

For some reason, this ice python that temporarily obeyed his orders is his best bargaining chip in this "negotiation"!

……

The attendant who came in to pour tea pushed the door out and sighed with relief.

After the young man entered the room, he had already talked with Priest Lang Yue for two hours.

This is also the fifth time he went in to change the tea.

But every time he enters the door, the two people who are "talking and laughing happily" will close their mouths tightly at the same time, watching him replace with new tea, fill the teacup, and then leave with a plate...

The attendant expressed a lot of pressure.

He has served this lord Lang Yue for many years, even when this lord first entered the Temple of the God King, he was already the other party's attendant.

But he had never seen this lord chatting with other people for so long—even when Lang Yue was the high priest, he had never talked with those tribal leaders like this.

He also probably knew the purpose of the lord's recruitment of this young man - because he was worthy of being recruited by the Temple of the King of Gods, and Lord Lang Yue wanted to be his first introducer and win him under his command.

Although this lord was forced to step back from the position of high priest, he never gave up his ambition to climb to the top again.

Presumably, he regarded this young man as the best opportunity for him to return to the top.

So it is reasonable to be so solemn.

But... this time is too long.

If he hadn't gone in to change the tea, knowing that these two people had been sitting on the roof talking all the time, he would have wondered if Master Lang suddenly changed his sexuality and became interested in the handsome young man.

This is not because Lang Yue's negotiating ability has declined, or that the majesty he once appointed as the high priest has declined with the passage of time.

It was his opponent, who was stronger than expected.

That young man not only has the capital to be wooed, but also knows how to use this precious "wealth"; and he will use the best words to exchange for the greatest benefit without angering Lang Yue.

It would be best if such a powerful person could be brought over, but just in case...

squeak-

The door was pushed open.

"Why are you still here!" Lang Yue asked loudly, frowning.

"Yes... I'm sorry, my lord! I was distracted! I'm very sorry!"

The attendant quickly knelt down and fell on the ground.

Fortunately, the reception room has already set up a soundproof restriction, even if he stands outside the door, it is impossible to overhear their conversation.So he didn't have to worry that Lang Yue would doubt him.

"Hmph. Forget it this time. Don't make an exception! By the way, hurry up and tell the kitchen staff to prepare! This Lord Yao Lin will stay at the Temple of God for dinner tonight."

"Oh, Lord Lang is so polite, I am really terrified."

The young man smiled and waved his hand.

"How can that be done! You are a distinguished guest of our God King Temple now, so naturally you have to treat yourself well! With your ability, let alone paying respects to your lord, it is no problem to grant you the position of priest directly!"

"Hey! I just received the grace of heaven, how can I compare to the priests? Lord Lang, don't underestimate yourself! But since the invitation is invited, I dare not refuse. This meal, I would like to thank you for the hospitality." .”

Attendant: ...Is the content of your conversations so terrible?Even the priests from heaven can talk?Luckily I didn't hear it!

A blue cloth head popped out of the young man's turban, making a "hissing" sound.

"Hahahaha, of course, I will not treat Master Binglan badly!"

Lang Yue suddenly let out a hearty laugh.

The attendant glanced at the blue cloth head, and when he took a closer look, he realized that it was actually a snake-like monster!

Moreover, with his Danyang-level strength, he couldn't detect the true nature of this snake—it meant that the other party was at least above the fifth rank!

Being able to get along so closely with the fifth-order snake-like monsters, even faintly obeys orders.No wonder Mr. Lang Yue is so eager to recruit this person!

The attendant seemed to have finally come to his senses, he buckled his head on the ground again, and took his orders.

After four hours of "friendly exchanges", Ling Yao finally dispelled Lang Yue's initial doubts about his identity as an "outsider" with his sharp tongue - or pretended not to doubt anymore;

Then, he showed off his position and attitude in front of Lang Yue, and gave the other party a reassurance that "the other party is not a spy that other people in Shenwang Temple have already recruited";

Then it is the stage where the two sides discuss "interests" and "benefits", test each other's bottom line, and show off each other's chips and muscles.

In the end, after more than two hours and a tug-of-war where the author omitted more than [-] words, the two foxes finally reached a preliminary consensus:

Ling Yao will not join Shenwang Temple, will not sign contracts and documents, and will not stand in line on the surface; but he will be "recommended" by Lang Yue to the sight of everyone in Shenwang Temple, and will stand by Lang in various major events. Yue's side increased his bargaining chips and voice.

And Lang Yue will also use his status to provide maximum convenience for Ling Yao's activities in Shenwang Temple.

This "negotiation" is undoubtedly wonderful.

But now everything is still only verbal and has not yet been implemented. The two people have not yet been tied to a chariot, so these "consensus" ultimately depend on whether the two parties can implement them.

Uh... To put it bluntly, it's just a negotiation. If you don't sign a contract, it may be useless at a critical moment.

Of course, this is already the limit of Ling Yao's ability.After all, he hasn't paid anything yet, so how can an old fox be expected to invest a lot in him when he has nothing to gain?

So in general, Ling Yao is quite satisfied with the outcome of this exhausting negotiation.

It's just... really tiring.

Don't look at him and this old man chatting with food and soup with gusto, often chatting with cold sweat down the back, all supported by a fake smile.

After all, he is an air-breaker from the enemy camp!

However, it is not yet time for him to retreat.

Lang Yue stayed him for dinner and took him to visit the Temple of the King of God, just to complete the task of serving as an "introducer".

And he can also take this opportunity to investigate the internal structure of the Temple of the God King and find out the location of the so-called "Holy Spring".

He also knew it was risky, but what could he do?If you don't help the uncle with work, you will die if you go back!

awful.

I don't know what kind of grudge the master master has against himself, but why did he ask the master master to take care of him?It's obviously here to mess things up, woo woo woo!

Lang Yue enthusiastically took him around the Temple of the King of Gods—of course, it was impossible for him to see holy springs and other forbidden places.

However, Ling Yao can use this to outline the general structure of the palaces in his mind.With his current strength in the raw phase, it is not difficult to remember it with a photographic memory.

And then... Lang Yue took him to meet the high priest, Da Xikang.

Although it is said that an ugly daughter-in-law also needs to see her parents-in-law (what kind of metaphor is this), but in the God King Temple, Lang Yue took him to meet Da Xikang, and naturally saw Nan Rong and Qiu...

To be honest, Ling Yao still felt quite embarrassed.

There was no need for Lang Yue and Ling Yao to make more introductions. Da Xikang saw the ice python who trusted Ling Yao and even obeyed at a glance.

Moreover, the high priest was obviously sharp-eyed, and he could see the specialness of this ice python at a glance-it should have the strength of the seventh level, and after recovery, it would have the capital to transform into a dragon.

This might... be the one with the most potential among the existing snake monsters in Rukawa.

No wonder Lang Yue brought this person to the priests to claim credit.This is to take the credit of introducing this person, win over contacts, slowly accumulate, and then compete with myself.

But... Da Xikang's face didn't change, and his smile was even more kind and gentle:

"With such ability, you must be the envoy chosen by Lord Snake Spirit. To have such a young talent join the Temple of the God King is the grace of the Heavenly Snake Spirit, and it is our honor. We welcome it very much."

After saying that, he stroked his chest with his hands, bending down to salute Ling Yao!

——Did Lang Yue think that with this ability, he could make a comeback and regain the position of high priest from him?

——That guy didn't know what he missed after staying in the position of high priest for so many years.

——He doesn't care about his small actions at all, because now he has already been favored by the snake spirit, invincible, reborn, and seeking eternal life...

Seeing this, the other priests saluted with the same gesture even though they didn't know the truth.

The young man suddenly became terrified, and bowed respectfully.

On the contrary, Lang Yue, who was quite ready to ask for credit before, did not expect Da Xikang to beat him up in this way, implying that he disrespected the envoy of Lord Snake Spirit, and made him unable to step down!

It's a pity that now he is a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis, he can't tell what he is suffering, so he can only pretend that he doesn't understand, and salute Ling Yao like everyone else.

But... Among the priests, there is naturally one who will not be willing.

"It's him! It's him who coaxed the snake and killed Gu Mingtai, the priest candidate! How could he be the envoy of Master Snake Spirit? He is not from Rukawa at all! He is clearly a liar!"

All eyes immediately turned to the short figure standing behind Da Xikang.

Nanrong and Qiu were quite out of breath at the moment.

Although he couldn't read Ling Yao's "memory", from the memory of "Han Hanlin", he could more or less deduce that this "Yao Lin" was actually from Changling Jianmen.

Who didn't know that Changling Jianmen had a knot with the former high priest Lang Yue?

He deliberately concealed this point, and only stabbed Lang Yue to the fact that Ling Yao can drive snakes, so that Lang Yue wanted to buy Ling Yao, but when he investigated the other party, he would find out the truth, so he used a knife to kill people and get rid of Ling Yao .

But now, Lang Yue personally recommended Ling Yao to the teacher.

Things didn't develop as he imagined at all!

And the teacher actually gave him such a high courtesy!Can he not be angry?

However, just when Nanrong and Qiu were about to say something, Ling Yao's eyes widened with a look of surprise:

"Huh? It's you? Are you from the Temple of the God King? Ah, no, are you actually a priest?"

Da Xikang didn't turn his head at first, but now he looked at Nanrong and Qiu:

"He Qiu, you knew him before?"

"I……"

Nanrong and Qiu were caught off guard by this turning point, and when they were about to defend themselves, Ling Yao took the lead:

"It's my fault! I met this lord outside the God King Temple earlier, and the lord seemed to be quite critical of me, so it was because of Na Gu Mingtai.

"At that time, I didn't know the identity of this lord. I just thought it was a child who was an orphan from some tribe. I just took him to the Temple of the God King on the way. I was so rude on the way, and I hope you will forgive me!"

After all, Ling Yao bowed deeply again.

Nanrong and Qiu:? ? ?What? ? ?Was that so? ? ?Are you really guilty of your "faux"? !

You said it so seriously, I, the client, almost believed it!
