Chapter 766: Chapter 570: You Are Not Qualified to Negotiate Terms with Me_2

"Xiao Cui, you summoned me here in the middle of the night. What has happened?"

"I’ve been discovered. Today, Big Bull came back with a young man. He was wearing a snow fur coat, and his cultivation level was so high, that just one glance from him made me break out in a cold sweat and threw my breathing into chaos!"

"Furthermore, he’s extremely interested in our origins. I fear it may interfere with Honorable Master’s plans, so I urgently called everyone here!"

Xiao Cui relayed the gist of the matter in one breath, and the seven people looked at each other with an incredibly grave expression.

"Why would the young master from Ice Cold City come to this backward Snow Cold Town? Besides, the fact that he discovered you but didn’t strike immediately indicates that his mission isn’t us. I suggest we avoid provoking him!"

Among the seven, a purple-haired woman stepped forward and analyzed the situation calmly.

"Zi Yan has a point. I believe we should report this matter to Honorable Master and let her decide our next course of action. We better not act recklessly!"

As soon as Zi Yan finished speaking, someone immediately agreed, because if what Xiao Cui said was true, then none of the eight present were a match for Wang Yang!

Even if the eight of them joined forces, they wouldn’t stand a chance.

They looked at each other and nodded in unison. As they were about to leave, a man’s voice suddenly echoed in their ears!

"I would like to meet this Honorable Master you speak of. May I join you on this journey?"

The eight women turned around abruptly, only to see that at some point, Wang Yang had appeared at the top of the stairs, his lips curved in a mocking smile!

Shock was evident on the faces of the eight women; Wang Yang’s presence had obviously been unnoticed for a while.

None of them had detected him!

"Art of Disguise, a natural Technique of the Demon Race. Although I do not know the grievance between you, I will not interfere, you just need to have one person lead the way!"

With their secret exposed in a single sentence, the eight women instantly became guarded, except Zi Yan who stepped forward and performed a deep curtsey toward Wang Yang, smiling as she spoke.

"I am willing to guide the young master!"

"Good!"

Wang Yang nodded, stepping forward. From the moment he saw Xiao Cui, he had spotted the clues, clearly a display of the Demon Race’s natural Technique,

Disguise Technique, illusion into human form.

To take on human form with this Technique, there’s no need for Refinement or shapeshifting.

Nor is there a need to break through to the Divine Realm—however, maintaining human form requires fresh blood!

This was why Wang Yang initially sensed the smell of blood on the hunter!

If the hunter returned with new prey, it could be sustained, but without it, the hunter’s own blood would be needed!

This fact became apparent from the fact that the hunter was still alive—if human blood was constantly needed, the hunter certainly wouldn’t have survived to this day.

Zi Yan led Wang Yang out of the inn, winding through the streets of Snow Cold Town. After making several turns, they suddenly stopped in front of a shop.

The shop was already closed tight, Zi Yan approached and knocked softly, whispering,

"Zi Yan urgently requests to see Honorable Master!"

Wang Yang was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected the hiding place of the Snow Wolf Tribe to be within Snow Cold Town rather than in the Snow Mountain!

"Creak!"

Moments later, the shop door slowly opened, and a seductive female voice emanated from within.

"Please come in, young master!"

In Wang Yang’s Sea of Consciousness, the voice kept echoing, disturbing his peace of mind.

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, Wang Yang stepped into the shop, his Spiritual Power surged, instantly dispersing the enchanting voice within his Sea of Consciousness!

"Eh?"

The woman let out a light gasp of surprise, seemingly not expecting the seductive voice to have no effect on Wang Yang.

"Zi Yan, you did well. Go back now!"

"Yes, Honorable Master!"

After bowing to the shop, Zi Yan turned and left.

"Please come in, young master!"

Wang Yang walked into the shop, and as the door closed behind him, the place was instantly lit by lamplight.

"May I know the purpose of the young master’s visit so late?"

A young woman asked in a gentle voice not far from Wang Yang.

The young woman—a vision in a pink dress, her fair skin partly visible, her exquisite face flawless.

But Wang Yang knew that this face was nothing more than a skin; from the previous probing, it was clear that this woman had at least centuries of Cultivation Level!

"The lady’s hospitality is truly quite unique."

Wang Yang didn’t answer the woman’s question, instead he casually found a chair to sit on, his gaze mocking as he looked at the woman.

"Hehe, your magnanimity is remarkable, Sir. A humble person like me fails to recognize a great one. For any abruptness, I hope you will forgive me!"

"Let’s skip the pleasantries. I’ve come here for something that belongs to you!"

Wang Yang waved his hand dismissively, not bothering with small talk, and got straight to the point.

"Please speak, Sir!"

"I want your Shape-shifting Mask!"

"What!"

As soon as Wang Yang’s words fell, the woman lost her composure, unintentionally letting out a cry of surprise, as if she couldn’t believe her own ears!

The Shape-shifting Mask was equivalent to the Life-bound Magic Weapon of the Snow Wolf Tribe and did not require blood to maintain; it only needed Spiritual Power to be activated to change one’s appearance.

As a Life-bound Magic Weapon, it required the nurturing of Spiritual Power over many years, and with the woman’s Cultivation Level, she had likely nurtured it for at least several centuries - how could she easily give it to someone else?

"Are you joking with me, Sir?"

The woman’s complexion drastically changed, her previous playfulness gone, as murderous intent erupted, her voice chillingly cold.

"I advise you to think carefully! Such a big plan in place, surely there’s support from a major figure in Ice Cold City behind you. You think you can tamper with the Snow Wolf Coats and deceive the eyes of the Royal Palace? Give me the mask, and I’ll spare your life!"

"Exactly who are you?"

The woman was thoroughly panicked; the secrets Wang Yang mentioned were known by no more than a handful of people!

"Your savior! Over the years, the Snow Wolf Tribe has been nearly wiped out by the Human Race. Your desire to turn the tables is not wrong, but you’ve allied with the wrong partner. Even if you took control of every hunter in Snow Cold Town!"

"You could carve curses on the Snow Wolf Coats and gain control of the Prestigious Nobility of Ice Cold City, but do you really think you can contend with the Royal Palace? It’s like striking a stone with an egg!"

From start to finish, every single word spoken by Wang Yang resonated in the woman’s Sea of Consciousness like thunder, echoing incessantly.

Of course, all of this was conjecture by Wang Yang, but judging by the woman’s reaction, this speculation was not far from the truth and was very close to the reality.

The Snow Wolf Tribe used the Art of Disguise but did not maintain the Technique with the blood of hunters, indicating they had other schemes.

And the only thing related to hunters was the Snow Wolf Coats!

Connecting the dots was not difficult.

Of course, all this was inextricably linked to Wang Yang’s Peerless Divine Consciousness. In other words, apart from Wang Yang, no one else could detect these clues!

"Why should I believe you?"

"It seems I’ve talked too much, letting you think I’m too easygoing, forgetting about our ranks! You are not in a position to negotiate terms with me!"

A hint of coldness flashed in Wang Yang’s eyes as his figure suddenly vanished from the spot. The woman, not expecting Wang Yang to strike out of the blue, hurriedly channeled her Spiritual Power to resist!

But at such close range, the woman couldn’t dodge, and Wang Yang’s fingers, like hooks, tightly clamped around her throat!

Leaping thunder sparks danced at his fingertips, infiltrating the woman’s body, instantly shattering the Spiritual Power she had just activated!

"Celestial Thunder!"

Struggling to breathe, the woman gritted her teeth and said with bitterness.

"Your Cultivation Level is only at the Divine Realm, how could you possibly wield the Power of celestial Thunder? Why can your Spiritual Power suppress my Earth Immortal Realm demonic power?"

"Ready to consider my words now?"

The woman nodded, Wang Yang’s strength completely surpassed her expectations. She had thought that her Cultivation Level of the Earth Immortal Realm would perfectly suppress Wang Yang’s Divine Realm.

However, a brief clash made the woman realize she had no capacity to fight back at all!

Despite her Thousand-Year Cultivation, the Snow Wolves were not strong in combat and, among their peers, they were also at a disadvantage!

Compared to a Thousand-Year Tree Demon that absorbed the Force of Resentful Spirits, their power was as different as heaven and earth!

Wang Yang loosened his grip, his figure flashed back to his original seat, crossing his arms over his chest, waiting for the woman’s response.

"I can give you the mask, Sir, but I need you to promise me one condition!"

Wang Yang’s words echoed in the woman’s ears, and after much deliberation, she secretly made a decision in her heart.

To abandon her previous plan and cooperate with Wang Yang!

But Wang Yang’s domineering approach had completely exceeded the woman’s expectations.

Yet, the next moment, a cold voice followed,

"I’ve said before, you are not in a position to negotiate terms with me!"
