Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 483: 483: If I Give You Face, You Should Take It

Chapter 483: Chapter 483: If I Give You Face, You Should Take It
There’s an old saying, “Don’t slap a smiling face.”

The Elder truly was giving Jiang Xiaobai a lot of face, so much so that he wasn’t quite sure how to react.

After all, he was someone who had killed people at the Demon Mountain, so why was the Elder of Demon Mountain treating him so well now?

Anyone could see that something fishy was going on!

However, Jiang Xiaobai did believe the Elder when he claimed people in the Northern State feared him. After all, along his journey, those who knew of him dare not provoke him.

This was making things rather awkward for Jiang Xiaobai.

No matter how much Jiang Xiaobai tried to provoke him, the Elder maintained his attitude. Could it be that the Demon Mountain really didn’t want to cause trouble with him?

Not just Jiang Xiaobai, but Ao Yan and the others also felt that something was off.

Even though they were expressing fear towards Jiang Xiaobai verbally, their attitude seemed a bit too good, didn’t it?

So good that it raised suspicions.

After all, anyone could understand the logic – if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes, cracking a grin at the Elder, “Stop talking for a moment, let me guess what you’re planning.”

“Could it be that you guys are afraid I’m going to cause problems for you? Hmm, there’s no doubt about that, I’ve been itching to stir up trouble. If I don’t have some fun, I just don’t feel right.”

“So you guys are behaving like this because you don’t want me to cause trouble. You’re trying to appease me, right?”

“Of course, you might really be afraid of me, but I find it hard to believe – even I’m just in the Dividing the gods period, while you guys are in the Fusion period at least, are you scared of me?”

“Clearly, that’s impossible, so there can only be one truth!”

“You guys don’t want me to go to the City of Tianyu, because something very important is happening there. So it’s decided then, guys, let’s go take a trip to the City of Tianyu!”

The moment these words were uttered, the Elder was completely dumbfounded!

What on earth did these seemingly unrelated statements mean?

What was this Jiang Xiaobai aiming at?

But when he realized Jiang Xiaobai was indeed setting out for the City of Tianyu, the Elder got anxious!

That was absolutely not an option!

Without thinking, he blurted out: “Wait, Brother Jiang, let’s talk it out, you mustn’t go down the path of causing trouble!”

Jiang Xiaobai nearly tripped.

It was indeed the Elder’s astonishing statement that caused this. However, he also couldn’t help but smirk.

After all this talk, he could tell there was really something wrong with the City of Tianyu based on the Elder’s reactions!

But of course, he didn’t intend to stir up trouble, creating a life-or-death situation.

There was no need for that.

All he wanted to do now was to ask about the whereabouts of the ancient clan and see if he could learn any news about Huseng. Also, he wouldn’t say no to any additional benefits.

The reason he was being so inflammatory was to heighten the tension.

“Oh, I see. So there really is something important happening in the City of Tianyu.”

“Tut tut tut, you should understand my nature by now. When something like this comes up, I do stir up trouble.”

Jiang Xiaobai said, chuckling.

The Elder’s facial expression instantly stiffened and he looked extremely awkward.

From behind, those who had long detested Jiang Xiaobai finally couldn’t hold back anymore.

“Damn it, are you looking for death, Jiang Xiaobai?”

“You’re nothing more than a dog, do you think killing the ancient clan has made you invincible? I’ll have you know that exterminating you would only take me a moment!”

“Jiang Xiaobai, I’m warning you, don’t push your luck. We’re giving you face, don’t act so cocky!”

The crowd yelled in fury.

At this, Jiang Xiaobai’s face broke into a smile, his hand clutching the rainbow sword. Behind him, Ao Yan and others also stood up, their weapons appearing in their hands as they coldly glared at the crowd.

Seeing his actions, the Elder knew something was wrong. Damn it, this was all Jiang Xiaobai’s scheme!

Ever since Jiang Xiaobai showed up, they’d been dancing to his tune!

This was all because of these good-for-nothings who screwed everything up!

“Enough, all of you shut up!”

With a roar, the crowd finally quieted down. However, the fury in their eyes towards Jiang Xiaobai only intensified.

It seemed that they could start fighting at any moment.

The Elder was rather displeased, but there was nothing he could do. They had to pacify Jiang Xiaobai no matter what.

If they decided to start a fight with Jiang Xiaobai now, if they couldn’t take him down, they’d be in big trouble!

Demon Mountain was indeed similar to an intelligence gathering group, and they had conducted research on Jiang Xiaobai after his previous actions.

They discovered that Jiang Xiaobai was extraordinary and, even more so, that he had a great powerhouse backing him!

Others might not know about the God of War’s Hall, but they at Demon Mountain did!

They understood the consequences of offending Jiang Xiaobai and provoking the great master behind him!

Besides, Jiang Xiaobai himself was incredibly powerful, and his tactics were endless. Whoever became his enemy would surely have a miserable time!

If they couldn’t eliminate Jiang Xiaobai right at the beginning, their Demon Lord would surely be furious!

If the Demon Lord found out about this, they would all be doomed.

This is why even if it cost him money, the Elder had to get this matter taken care of!

“Ahem, Brother Jiang, let’s have a civil discussion, no need for weapons. We’re not looking to be your enemies!”

The Elder chuckled: “How about this, let’s each take a step back. Tell me why you’re looking for us at Demon Mountain and if there’s any way I can help you. Also, here are ten billion spirit stones, for your trouble!”

The crowd, including Jiang Xiaobai, was astonished by his tactics.

Jiang Xiaobai was scratching his head, feeling that these guys were being a bit too agreeable. They didn’t even retaliate, could they really endure this?

Were they truly adopting the mentality of ninja turtles?

But if someone offered a gift and you didn’t accept it, you’d be a fool. So, Jiang Xiaobai gladly accepted the ten billion spirit stones!

“Since the Elder has said so, I would be impolite if I didn’t accept.”

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled: “I won’t hide it, first, where is the ancient clan, second, where is the headquarters of Xuanmen, and third, not a question, but a request, another ten billion spirit stones.”

“Otherwise, you guys should prepare for some turmoil in the City of Tianyu.”

Jiang Xiaobai’s words left the Elder and the others with twitching corners of their mouth.

This was clearly a threat!

The Elder was so angry that his clenched fists trembled. In the end, he could only hold it in!

He couldn’t mess up the task assigned by the Demon Lord.

“Fine, another ten billion, no problem!”

The Elder almost gnashed his teeth while squeezing out these words.

“However, Jiang Xiaobai, once we’ve given you what you asked for, you can’t go back on your word. If you mess with Demon Mountain again, it’ll be crossing the line and we will fight you to the death!”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded: “Not a problem, you can always trust me.”

Snort!

One of the Demon Mountain powerhouses couldn’t help but sneer: “You, trustworthy?”

“Don’t I? Use your little piggy brain and think back, when have I ever broken my word?”

At this, everyone’s face changed.

Hiss, it seemed like he really hadn’t!
