Chapter 412: Chapter 280 Conspiracy and Successful Deal_2

"Can’t afford it, can you..."

Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes and rubbed his fingertips, suddenly asking in a cold voice, "Fate Weaver, with your insight, could the four of us together possibly kill those two, directly snatch what they have."

As the words fell, there was silence.

Perhaps it was due to surprise, or perhaps because they were considering the feasibility of the suggestion, but for a moment, all four were steeped in silence.

It’s unknown how much time passed,

"The risk is too great."

The always silent Yi Kui laughed out loud, glancing at Qin Yuan, "Qin Yuan, you should have seen how powerful the high-grade specters are. Second Grade Primordial won’t be weaker than them. If you want to die, don’t drag this official down with you; this official hasn’t enjoyed enough of life yet."

Upon saying that,

Yi Kui cast a sidelong glance at Bai Muxi, licked her red lips with the tip of her tongue, chuckled, and her chest gently quivered:

"As for not being able to afford it, that’s not the case. There’s no man that isn’t lecherous, Fate Weaver my lord, perhaps you could stoop to..."

"Yi Kui!"

Li Xing’s eyes, filled with fierce killing intent, looked over, his brows furrowing, "What do you mean by that?"

Yi Kui didn’t pay any attention to Li Xing, her figure swaying as she stood up, and with a bending smile, she said:

"A Second Grade Primordial man should meet your standards, right, Fate Weaver? With your unparalleled beauty, offering to remove your veil as a gesture should be able to bring them closer to us."

Li Xing narrowed his eyes:

"Shut up. Why don’t you go do it yourself?"

Yi Kui crossed her arms over her chest, her laugh ringing clear:

"This official does have an interest in experiencing a Primordial powerhouse, but the customs of the Upper Realm are likely different from ours here beneath the earth. With the body of a fallen woman, those from the Upper Realm probably would not take a second glance at me."

As she spoke,

she walked up to Li Xing, bent down, gazed at his stern face, and asked, word by word:

"Moreover, Li Xing, the Fate Weaver has not yet spoken. Why are you so anxious?"

Then,

as if suddenly remembering something, her mouth parted slightly and with a gentle cover of her lips with her hand, she feigned surprise while glancing at Li Xing:

"Ah, I almost forgot, the four of us grew up together, and Li Xing, you seemed to have adored the Fate Weaver since we were young, heh... If you wanted to remove our Fate Weaver’s veil, then go ahead and break through to Primordial yourself.

"Li Xing, with a catastrophe of clan extermination looming, powerless possessiveness is truly laughable."

"........"

Li Xing’s eyes were turbulent with murderous intent, his fists clenched, and Origin Qi swirling around him.

Watching the two about to argue again, Bai Muxi’s voice was very faint:

"Although the man is the one in charge, the one with the Primordial cultivation is actually that woman."

Li Xing exhaled a sigh of relief upon hearing this, while Yi Kui clicked her tongue lightly:

"How boring. This official is quite curious to see the Fate Weaver without her veil..."

"Indeed, this young master is also curious."

"....."

Suddenly, silence befell them.

All four’s pupils shrank, and turning around at the sound, they saw a man and a woman slowly walking into the stone hall.

The man, adorned in brocade robes, walked forward with hands behind his back, while the woman in a black robe followed at his side, hand on her waist blade.

Their steps echoed in the vast hall, as casual as if returning to their own home, with the man leisurely surveying the stone hall.

Eventually,

they crossed the stairs, arrived at the altar, and Xu Yuan smiled as he took in the four people present:

"Although I had some suspicions, the relationships within this Underground Palace are indeed complicated. However, indulging in desires is not a good habit for cultivation."

"......"

No one responded.

The four strongest from the Underground City looked warily at the two unexpected visitors.

Even Bai Muxi was completely unaware of how long these two had been there, or how much of their secretive discussion they had heard.

After a moment of quiet,

Yi Kui was the first to speak up, slightly lowering her chest covering,

"Very messy, you say? With your esteemed status, you must have seen quite a lot, haven’t you?"

Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow and turned his gaze towards the wealthy and generous Underground Palace Great Grandmaster, curling the corners of his mouth:

"The way you say it, seems like you’re quite familiar with the outside world?"

"This little woman has spent her life in this Underground Palace, naturally unaware of the outside world."

Yi Kui’s voice took on a thread of weakness, like that of a little girl, and gently spoke, "However, Yi Kui is very familiar with an old saying, ’food and sex are human nature.’ In a position of power, one naturally enjoys the present."

At her words, Xu Yuan took an interested look at the woman, and when his gaze swept over, Yi Kui directly laughed heartily, thrusting forward her quivering fullness.

In rueful amusement, Xu Yuan let out a breath:

"I’m not averse to your personality; if you can make it out alive, you could serve as a Guest Elder in my household."

Yi Kui’s eyes flickered, her lips parted slightly:

"Just... a Guest Elder?"

Xu Yuan glanced at her, then asked with a smile:

"Auntie, besides being a Guest Elder, what else do you want? If you wish to warm my bed, I’m afraid you’ll be killed before you even get in the door."

Saying that, he glanced at the Princess beside him.

Li Qingyan gave a cold snort with a stern expression.

"....." Yi Kui.

Xu Yuan let out a breath, smiling:

"Just joking. A Guest Elder in my Prime Minister’s Mansion would likely have a better deal compared to those in your Underground Palace. If you’re interested, we can chat privately."

With that, Xu Yuan no longer paid any heed to Yi Kui, whose eyes were veiled with contemplation, and instead glanced at the man named Qin Yuan, his voice slightly cold:

"As for you... if you want to try killing us, now is your chance."

"...."

Upon their gaze meeting, Qin Yuan chose to straightforwardly lower his head and feign death.

Xu Yuan shook his head, bored, and looked towards Bai Muxi at the forefront, motioning with his mouth at Qin Yuan as if to suggest he explain.

Bai Muxi slowly stood up, walked closer, drew her sleeves together, and gave a polite bow, not hurriedly:

"Young master, please forgive Qin Yuan’s rudeness."

Xu Yuan’s eyes held a strange amusement as he spoke:

"We’ve come here with sincerity to cooperate, yet behind our backs, you plotted to murder the two of us. If apologies are to be made, shouldn’t there be some genuine sincerity?"
