Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 127: Thirty Thousand Spirit Stones

"Everyone, please calm down!"

Xu Mu suddenly stepped forward, standing between the two parties.

"Who are you? You have no right to speak here!" The person in the pointed black robe said coldly.

He naturally sensed that Xu Mu was at the Foundation Building stage. The reason he said that was just to provoke him intentionally.

Before they came here, they had already found out that Whale Luo Chen was dead, and another powerful Shen Gai had also left. It could be said that the Whale Sea Gang was like a fish on a chopping board, waiting to be manipulated by them.

What they needed to do now was to find someone to establish their dominance and make the Whale Sea Gang obedient.

The mid-stage Qi Refining Xu Mu in front of them was very suitable for this.

"Step aside, Elder Xu Mu of the Whale Sea Gang!"

Xu Mu remained polite and did not show any signs of anger.

"Get out of the way!"

The person in the pointed black robe was clearly looking for trouble. Seeing that Xu Mu wasn't provoked into making the first move, he simply controlled the corpse puppet to attack first.

After all, the Iron Corpse Gang had never been known for being reasonable.

Roar!

The two corpse puppets let out a low roar. Sharp, poisonous fingertips emerged from under their long sleeves, ready to attack. Xu Mu swiftly moved in front of them, reaching out with both hands and pressing down on their shoulders.

Crackling!

Golden lightning flickered, and the two corpse puppets were enveloped in blue smoke, unable to move.

"Lightning technique!"

The person in the pointed black robe's expression changed, immediately shaking the bell.

Ding ling ling!

The sound of the bell was piercing, and the two corpse puppets' aura surged. Unfortunately, under Xu Mu's control, they still couldn't move an inch.

"Senior He!"

The person in the pointed black robe's pupils contracted, quickly looking at the person in the wide-faced black robe beside him.

The person in the wide-faced black robe's expression tensed, raising his right hand to shake the bell. But Xu Mu suddenly stopped, taking the initiative to step back.

"Why rush to take action, sir? We haven't said we won't agree!" Xu Mu clasped his hands together, gently twisting them, with a smiling expression on his face.

The person in the wide-faced black robe stopped his movements, looking at Xu Mu with a wary expression.

He didn't expect that Xu Mu's cultivation technique would actually be of the thunder attribute, and he seemed to have considerable strength, easily suppressing the two fourth-stage corpse puppets with just a flick of his finger.

The thunder attribute was the bane of their corpse puppets.

If a fight really broke out, they wouldn't necessarily gain much advantage.

After all, there was also Xu Yi Ren and over a hundred Qi Refining cultivators beside them.

"You truly have impressive methods!" The person in the pointed black robe said coldly, pulling the two corpse puppets behind him.

Although he acted ruthlessly, he was not a reckless person.

Reckless people couldn't survive in this world.

His dominance was built upon his strength. When his strength was insufficient, being too domineering would be suicidal.

"You flatter me!" Xu Mu smiled and cupped his hands.

"Joining the Iron Corpse Gang is not a small matter. I wonder if the two of you can give us a few days to consider."

Xu Mu appeared very easygoing.

The two black-robed individuals glanced at each other and nodded.

Since they were temporarily subdued, they could only agree.

Of course, they weren't really agreeing, it was just a temporary measure.

"Alright! We'll give you half a month to consider. We hope you can make a clear decision!"

After saying that, the two of them were about to turn and leave, but Xu Mu once again stood in front of them.

"What's the matter? Do you want to fight?!"

The expressions of the two black-robed individuals turned cold.

They weren't really afraid of Xu Mu, they just didn't want to cause too much damage to the other party.

"Both of them killed someone and just left like that, it's unacceptable!" Xu Mu said lightly.

"What do you want to do then?" The broad-faced black-robed man's gaze flickered, he waved his sleeve and said coldly.

In a situation where their strength was unknown, he didn't want to conflict with the other party.

After all, there were internal struggles within the Iron Corpse Gang as well. If they suffered too much loss because of Xu Mu, even if they managed to take down the Whaling Sea Gang, it would not be worth it.

"We should at least give some compensation!" Xu Mu smiled.

"Just a few Qi Refining stage cultivators, if they die, they die! To dare ask for compensation, he really has some nerve!" The sharp-faced black-robed man's gaze turned fierce.

Xu Mu ignored him and looked at the broad-faced black-robed man.

The broad-faced black-robed man fell silent for a moment before speaking, "How much do you want?"

"Thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"..."

The expressions of the two men instantly turned ugly.

This amount felt like tit for tat, an eye for an eye.

"Senior He!" The sharp-faced black-robed man's bell jingled, and the two reanimated corpses behind him moved forward, clearly ready to take action.

However, the broad-faced black-robed man reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder, then transmitted his voice, "This person dares to ask for such a large sum, his strength is probably not simple. Let's give it to him for now, call for reinforcements later, and after we kill him, the spirit stones will still be ours!"

The sharp-faced black-robed man's gaze flickered, he nodded. After all, Xu Mu's act of subduing the two reanimated corpses earlier had been too shocking, making him hesitant to act rashly.

Before having absolute certainty, it was not a bad idea to spend a few spirit stones to calm things down.

The two men each took out one hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones and threw them on the ground before turning and leaving.

This time, Xu Mu did not stop them.

After the two men left, Xu Yi hurriedly approached with a worried expression.

"Will this offend them too much? I suspect they will seek revenge with others!"

"Remove the word 'suspect'."

Xu Mu turned his head and glanced at Xu Yi, his expression calm.

"Then why did you provoke them? Could it be..." Xu Yi widened her eyes.

Could it be that he really believed her words and was planning to eliminate the Iron Corpse Gang?

When she said those words earlier, there had been an element of joking, like a woman playfully wanting the stars in the sky. She didn't really think Xu Mu could eliminate the Iron Corpse Gang.

In her consciousness, Xu Mu's strength was definitely not weak.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to subdue Yang Wanshou and the others in just one day, let alone resolve Shen Gai unscathed.

All of this, even the former Whale Fall Chen couldn't have done it.

However, there was still a considerable gap between this level of strength and eliminating the Iron Corpse Gang.

"Xu Lang, you must not take it seriously. I was just joking back then."

Xu Yi hurriedly tried to persuade him.

"I will contact the other factions now. As long as we work together, the Iron Corpse Gang will definitely not dare to act recklessly. If necessary, we can return the spirit stones to them! If things really get out of hand, the two of us can escape together!"

"Haha!"

Seeing Xu Yi's nervous appearance, he couldn't help but laugh.

It seemed that this woman really had him in her heart. The position of gang leader that had been so hard to come by, she was willing to give up so easily.

"Rest assured, it's just a small trouble. I will handle it! We don't necessarily have to eliminate the Iron Corpse Gang!"

"You go and reassure the gang members, I'll be back soon."

After speaking, Xu Mu turned and left, not waiting for her to try to persuade him. His figure disappeared without a trace.

"Xu Lang wouldn't really go after them and kill them, but if he does, the Iron Corpse Gang will be even less likely to let it go." Xu Yi frowned, not understanding what Xu Mu was thinking.

If he really wanted to take action, it would have been better if they had acted together just now.

If they caught up and killed the other party now, the Iron Corpse Gang would definitely suspect them.

At that time, it would truly be a fight to the death. The surrounding factions would not be able to stand up for them anymore.

What Xu Yi didn't know was that Xu Mu, who had left, had no intention of pursuing the two men. Instead, he headed towards the market managed by the Iron Corpse Gang.
