2941 Selling himself for money (1)

The traveling merchant’s words were like a bolt of lightning on a clear day, causing the surroundings to instantly become silent.

“What are you saying?

The guard of the treasure vault opened his eyes wide, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears, or that the traveling merchant in front of him was a madman.

The bounty target that countless cultivators could not find had actually appeared at the entrance of the treasure vault headquarters of his own accord. It was unbelievable just thinking about it.

Not only the guarding cultivators, but the cultivators nearby also had similar thoughts.

“I said, I’m Yingluo.”

When the traveling merchant heard this, he was about to reveal his identity again. However, just as he opened his mouth, he heard a loud shout behind him.

you damn liar! How dare you cheat in the treasure vault? I’ll kill you!

Then, a cold ray of light shot out from the crowd and went straight for the head of the traveling merchant.

The speed of the attack was fast and urgent, clearly wanting to kill him.

“Impudent!”

The Guardian cultivator, who had just confirmed it out of shock, immediately roared in anger, but he was secretly regretting it.

He was an idiot for not taking decisive measures immediately to send the traveling merchant to a safe place.

Regardless of whether he was the bounty target or not, he had already become the enemy’s must-kill target, and his situation had become extremely dangerous.

However, the speed of the cold light was extremely fast, and the attack was extremely sudden. It was obvious that he was a step too slow to intercept it.

The traveling merchants sensed the danger and panicked. They subconsciously put up a protective barrier.

Only cultivators could do this, and the onlookers were even more certain that the identity of a traveling merchant was just a disguise.

At this moment, the enemy’s sneak attack broke through the barrier and went straight for the traveling merchant’s vital point. It was too late to Dodge.

“I’m going to die!”

The traveling merchant’s eyes flashed with a hint of despair.

He had persevered to the last step, but he was actually ambushed by the enemy. As expected, man’s plans were not as good as God’s plans.

“Don’t worry, you won’t die.”

A voice rang out, dispelling the boundless fear.

The traveling merchant was stunned for a moment, and then he was pleasantly surprised to find that the enemy’s weapon was suspended in front of him.

It was only an inch, but the cold air was aggressive.

“Pfft!”

With a soft sound, this valuable magic weapon suddenly exploded into dust.

The fatal crisis was resolved in an instant. It was so fast that no one could react in time.

At this moment, not only the traveling merchants heaved a sigh of relief, but the guarding cultivators of the treasure vault were also the same.

If the target of the bounty died at the entrance because of them, it would be hard to absolve themselves of the blame.

In fact, the main reason was that he didn’t expect someone to be so crazy as to dare to guard the entrance of the treasure vault and intercept the bounty target.

This was not only provoking the treasure vault, but also provoking Tang Zhen. He was simply crazily courting death!

“Catch that sneak attacker!”

The guarding cultivator of the treasure vault roared and rushed to the attacker, only to find that the other party had a strange smile.

In the blink of an eye, a loud sound was heard.

“BOOM!”

This cultivator chose to self-destruct after failing to assassinate him. It was obvious that he didn’t want to leave any clues behind.

The nearby cultivators were both angry and anxious. Under such circumstances, they were afraid that they would be implicated.

Sure enough, in the next moment, countless cultivators flew out of the treasure vault and surrounded the cultivators who were watching.

“Don’t resist and obediently accept the inspection. If there’s nothing wrong with you, we’ll naturally let you go!

If anyone dares to resist, don’t blame this old master for being impolite!”

The first elder of the Treasury had a dark expression on his face as he looked around with a fierce gaze.

He looked like he was going to eat someone.

Assassinating a suspected bounty target at the entrance of the treasure vault’s headquarters was simply the greatest provocation to the treasure vault!

What would outsiders think if this matter was spread?

If the traveling merchants were really the targets of the bounty and were ambushed and killed, it would be like the sky had collapsed.

The first elder did not dare to imagine to what extent Tang Zhen would be furious and what kind of anger the treasure vault would bear.

Fortunately, the worst situation didn’t happen. Tang Zhen had already saved the traveling merchant the moment the accident happened.

The first elder turned around and saw that the traveling merchant who was still in shock was currently pretending to be calm as he stood in front of Tang Zhen.

“You’re the one who stored more than a dozen items in the treasure vault, and these two round beads are among them?”

Tang Zhen looked at the traveling merchant and asked in an indifferent tone. He waved his hand and displayed a scene.

Those were two round balls that flickered with different lusters. They were the two origin soul treasures that Tang Zhen had found earlier.

The traveling merchant nodded his head. This was indeed the item that he had stored, and it was impossible to deny it.

you were the one who used the access token to bring the cultivators of the thousand feet peak into the secret realm of the ruins, and then escaped halfway through the teleportation? ”

“That’s right.”

you were able to avoid the pursuit of countless cultivators because of this mask on your face. It can completely shield your aura and turn you into an ordinary person without any flaws.

The traveling merchant’s face revealed a hint of surprise, but he still nodded his head lightly.

“Yes, Your Excellency.”

“If you’re patient enough, you can continue hiding. Due to some special reasons, even I can’t accurately lock onto your position.

What is the reason that made you give up on hiding and appear before me?”

This was the most crucial question. Tang Zhen hoped that this young cultivator in front of him would be able to give him a satisfactory answer.

The traveling merchant helplessly smiled and replied to Tang Zhen,”I know what kind of situation I’m facing. Although I can temporarily hide it, I’ll be exposed one day.

For the treasures that were piled up like a mountain, even if it took a hundred years, there would definitely be cultivators who would continue to search for them.

But I can’t wait that long, because I still have to improve my strength and take revenge for my sect.

If I wait a hundred years, I will become a good-for-nothing with no chance of revenge!”

The traveling merchant had a bitter smile on his face. He had been under too much pressure recently and was on the verge of a complete breakdown.

On the way to the Treasury, he hesitated more than once, but in the end, he chose to continue.

Because he knew in his heart that he had no way out.

The pursuit from the thousand feet peak had already caused him to be in a constant state of anxiety. The reward order issued by Tang Zhen was truly unbearable, as if the sky had collapsed.

“Your Excellency must have your purpose in issuing the bounty, and it’s likely to be related to my exploration.

After all, apart from that, a small cultivator like me really doesn’t deserve the attention of an important person like you.

Especially when I heard that this matter was related to the Treasury, I was even more certain of my speculation.

Therefore, I’ve decided to take the initiative and provide you with the information you want.

I’ve sent myself to your door. Does this mean that I can receive the treasures you’re offering?”

Tang Zhen smiled and nodded when he saw the traveling merchant’s face that was filled with anticipation.

“That’s right, I can leave it to you.”

The traveling merchant bowed and thanked Tang Zhen after hearing this. After which, he continued to ask, allow me to ask again. Can I use the secrets I know to exchange for a condition? ”

Tang Zhen shook his head and said to the traveling merchant,”Since you’ve accepted the reward, it means that you’ve given yourself to me, and your role has changed.

You’ve been exchanged for my bounty, and your life is in my hands. Under such circumstances, do you think I’ll give you the chance to make conditions?

Or do you think that you can keep the secret in front of me with your own ability?”

“So you’re saying that since I can’t get the reward, I can’t keep my secret?”

The traveling merchant asked Tang Zhen after taking a deep breath.

“The treasure is yours, no one can take it away from you, but it’s your own problem if you can protect it.

Answer me honestly and I won’t make things difficult for you. This is my promise to you.”
