Chapter 1296 - 1296: Agree on Benefits Sharing

"Little Comrade, I wonder what the other building plan is..."

"That's the plan of the Dark Crescent Secret Force's main headquarters. It's located in the imperial prison outside the city, which was abandoned decades ago," Zheng-Fu explained briefly. He thought this was enough to make everyone understand and could analyze further by themselves.

Umm!

"So, they have their headquarters there. No wonder we haven't been able to find them."

"Imperial prison!? But that place is sealed off. Why are they there?"

"There must be someone in the administration who is cooperating with them."

"Yes, that's right. Everyone knows that the imperial prison has been a forbidden place since the beginning."

"Little Comrade, is it true that they are located there?" Sang-Huan asked again to confirm.

Although Zheng-Fu's answer was shocking and unbelievable, Sang-Huan thought that this was very possible. The rule prohibiting outsiders from entering the imperial prison had been in place for a long time, and no one paid any attention to it at the moment.

"Whether you believe me or not is up to you. I have told you what I should tell you, and what to do next is up to you… However, if you're going to explore there, I suggest you prepare yourself well because they've set up many tactical formation spell nets to welcome uninvited outsiders."

Zheng-Fu did not confirm. If they wanted more certainty, they would have to find out the truth themselves. But of course, he did not forget to warn them of the dangers of the spell nets and the other tactical formations that the assassin force had inscribed at the entrance and other places, which he had marked on the plan floating in the middle of the hall.

Umm!

"We thank you very much. With these building plans, we'll be able to easily destroy the Men Clan and Dark Crescent Secret Force from this world. By the way, how much... of a share do you want from this job?"

Of course, every action would have benefits and compensation. And they were not the ones who carried out the whole plan but had Zheng-Fu's cooperation and initial arrangement. Therefore, Guan-Hong-Ian had to ask Zheng-Fu about this matter.

"As for the share, I'll take everything that belongs to the Dark Crescent Secret Force and some of the Men Clan. The rest, you can take them all!"

Of course, Zheng-Fu was not a saint or a benefactor who did things for others for free. He also wanted a share, especially all the resources that the Dark Crescent Secret Force possessed. Because he had invested a lot of effort in eliminating that assassin force. And he asked for some of the Men Clan's as compensation for causing them to fall into such chaos.

Hah!

"Isn't it too much?"

"That's right! We're the ones who are going to take action, but you are just waiting to reap the benefits. At least we should get something from eliminating the Dark Crescent Secret Force!"

Yes!!!

That's right!!!

When the elders of the two clans heard Zheng-Fu's answer, their greed made them feel dissatisfied. They thought that they should also get a share from eliminating the Dark Crescent Secret Force. Everyone knew that the Dark Crescent Secret Force had been around for decades, so it must have accumulated a lot of valuable treasures and items.

You guys!!!

Hearing their elders say that, the two clan leaders' faces immediately became solemn. They did not expect their clan members to show such greed.

"You guys can think whatever you want. But let me tell you this: even without the help of your clans, I alone can wipe out the Men Clan and the Dark Crescent Secret Force. And if that were the case, you would have received nothing but the losses that they had caused you. And... who said I would let you deal with the Dark Crescent Secret Force?"

Hah?!

"Little Comrade, what do you mean by that?"

"I have already said it clearly; don't you understand? Well, I'll make it clear again! I'm the one who will wipe out the Dark Crescent Secret Force. So, what's wrong with me saying that I'll take all their resources and treasures for myself?"

Oh!!!

When everyone heard that, they instantly understood, and the people who were showing greed and accusing Zheng-Fu of being selfish turned red in embarrassment. They wanted to hide their heads in the ground or get out of there right away.

All right!

"In that case, as Guan Clan Leader, I must apologize to you on behalf of these elders. I'll punish them appropriately later. By the way, when will we start?" Guan-Hong-Ian quickly interjected to prevent the atmosphere from becoming more awkward and asked about the date and time of the operation instead.

"You can start tomorrow. As for today, I'd like you all to stay quiet and take care of the consequences of the two of you meeting today. I can feel that many people are hiding around your clan area. I believe you know who they are."

Umm…

"Thank you, Little Comrade, for reminding us. I have already prepared an excuse. Because today I came here not only to discuss an important plan, but I also want to ask Younger Brother Hong-Ian's son how he feels about my youngest daughter!"

Hah!

Brother Huan!

Uncle!

Both Guan-Hong-Ian and Guan-Yong were quite shocked when they heard that. Especially Guan-Yong, who was even more shocked than his father. He had never revealed this matter to anyone. And he believed that Sang-Huan's daughter had not told anyone either. Both of them were afraid that their clans would not accept their relationship.

Xiao-Yong!

Of course, Guan-Hong-Ian was a little dissatisfied about this. But it was not because his son was in a relationship with Sang-Huan's daughter. He was dissatisfied that his son did not tell him about this, and it turned out to be such a shameful and unethical thing.

Father... I...

"I really love Sister Bi-Diao, Father. But I'm afraid that if I tell you..., you and the clan won't allow the two of us to be in a relationship. Because Sister Bi-Diao is already engaged to someone, so..."

Oops!

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

"Father!? Uncle!?"

However, at that moment, Sang-Huan and Guan-Hong-Ian burst into uncontrollable laughter, filled with happiness. They were greatly amused when they heard Guan-Yong's words just now.

Hmm!

"It's my fault for not telling you earlier. Actually, Niece Bi-Diao's fiancée is you, my son!"

Hah?!

"That's right! We've arranged for you two to be engaged since childhood, and we never expected that you would secretly be in a relationship without knowing that you were already fiancée. Ha ha ha!"

Ah!

When Guan-Yong heard the truth, he blushed and did not know what to do. He did not know whether to laugh with joy or cry. All this time, he had been hiding his relationship with the Guan Clan Leader's daughter, even though they were already engaged.

"Then, erm, ... did Sister Bi-Diao know about this, sir, Uncle Huan?" asked Guan-Yong. He tried to suppress his emotions before asking Sang-Huan with great anticipation and enthusiasm.

"She doesn't know yet. And today, she was very distressed when she found out that I'm going to her fiancé's clan to discuss a wedding date for her," Sang-Huan replied to Guan-Yong as he smiled at the corner of his mouth to hold back his laughter.

Hmm!

"Younger Brother Yong, since we're going to be related as a family, I'll take you to see her to tell her the truth myself. I believe she'll be very happy," Sang-Long said with excitement and joy. He had just found out about this as well. When he knew who his younger sister's mysterious fiancé was, he could not help but smile happily. Guan-Yong was a good-natured and trustworthy person. If it were someone else and he were in this situation, he would have been angry and caused trouble for the other party. Therefore, to strengthen their relationship, he volunteered to personally take Guan-Yong to meet his younger sister.

"Thank you, Brother Long, for supporting me!" Guan-Yong said excitedly. He felt happier than on any other day.

"Since everything is settled, I have to take my leave. I still have a lot of work to do. When I have any news, I'll immediately inform you guys. As for the method of communication, you can contact me through this communication jade!"

Flop!

Blop!

"We understood. We thank you very much for everything you have done, Little Comrade. When we have a chance later, let's have a drink together."

"Sure. I thank you all as well!"

Whooooosh!

Hah!!!

As soon as Zheng-Fu finished speaking, his figure instantly disappeared from everyone's sight without a trace, just like when he came. Although the two clan leaders had been keeping a close watch on Zheng-Fu, they still could not see how and where he disappeared. It was as if Zheng-Fu had never existed before, or the person talking to them was just an illusion.

"What a strong young man! He came and went without a trace. His concealment skill must be very high. Or else he must be..."

"A Half-step to Deity Stage master!"

Hah!

Hearing the words 'Half-step to Deity Stage', everyone was stunned. Some were even trembling with fear, especially those who were arguing with Zheng-Fu about the benefits of dealing with the two big powers.

"I'm not sure if he's in the Half-step to Deity Stage, but I cannot sense his true energy level. Sometimes it's weak, sometimes it's strong. It's very difficult to tell for sure. I think Brother Huan must feel the same way as I do."

Guan-Hong-Ian also could not tell for sure whether Zheng-Fu was a Half-step to Deity Stage master. Because he could not sense Zheng-Fu's true energy at all. Not only could he not sense Zheng-Fu's energy, but his life force was also undetectable. It was as if the person he was talking to was not a person but a soulless body.

"That's right, but what I'm sure of is that we should absolutely not provoke this young man; otherwise, our clan might face disaster. Take the current Men Clan, for example, I believe that they might have done something or several things that displeased him, so they're facing those disasters."

What about the Dark Crescent Secret Force?

"It might be the same. So, I must warn my Sang Clan members to try their best not to do anything to displease him."

Umm!

"If it's really like what Brother Huan said, then I must also instruct my clan members!"

The two clan leaders had the same opinion; they had to be very strict in this matter.
