He slowly followed behind the young man, walking down one corridor after another, up one step after another, and the two gradually left the place where the crowd was dense.
The direction the young man was heading in was a quiet passage that almost no one had passed through. Even the fluorescent stones on the wall used for illumination had been damaged.
Tang Zhen did not know what part of Black Rock City this was. However, it was very obvious that this place was suitable for some secret matters.
For example, discussing the cooperation between the two of them.
Tang Zhen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the young man who was still slowly walking forward. He steadily stopped his footsteps.
Then, with a half-smile on his face, he saw that the young man in Black named Xiao Rui had also slowly stopped in his tracks.
“Why aren’t you following me?”
The young man turned his head around and faced Tang Zhen’s position as his cold and indifferent voice softly sounded.
At the same time, his hand was already on the hilt of his sword. Although he only had a level one cultivation, the young man’s hand was very steady and strong.
Tang Zhen believed that after this sword was pulled out, it would definitely be as fast as lightning and full of strength.
From the looks of it, this young man was very talented in the cultivation of the martial path. However, Tang Zhen was more interested in how this young man had discovered him and when had he discovered him?
Tang Zhen didn’t remove the quantum stealth light curtain. Instead, he asked with an interested tone,”Not bad, you can actually detect my existence! As far as I know, only a horde leader can find me. You’re only a rank 1 cultivator, how did you do it?”
The young man’s tone was cold as he replied in a disdainful tone, ” “Why should I tell you?”
“Why? this is a problem. Let me think about it.”
Tang Zhen’s words paused for a moment before continuing, because I can help you realize your dream. What do you think of that answer? ”
The teenager’s eyes moved and he continued to say in a mocking tone, ” hehe, my dream. I’ve said that I want to be the governor of Black Rock City. Can you help me with that? ”
that depends on what price you can pay. However, I guess your dream is not as simple as becoming the governor of Black Rock City, right? ”
The young man shook his head gently and slowly loosened his grip on the sword hilt. He stared at Tang Zhen’s position for a long time before he faintly opened his mouth and said,”When did you enter my house, and what’s your purpose?”
Tang Zhen became even more interested when he heard this. It seemed like the young man had already discovered him when he had just returned home.
Of course, this was only his guess. If the young man had really discovered him at that time, then the conversation between him and his sister would not have been so simple.
Or it could be said that the conversation between the siblings was actually deliberately said for Tang Zhen to hear.
Tang Zhen didn’t believe that this young man had such a terrifying thought process. Therefore, he guessed that he had given himself away when he followed the young man out.
This guy was probably trying to trick him. What an interesting little guy!
Tang Zhen looked at the young man in silence, waiting for him to say the answer. Moreover, Tang Zhen was certain that the young man would definitely say it.
This was actually a method, using some secrets to exchange for mutual trust. This way, after knowing each other’s secrets, they would no longer be completely hostile to each other, and there would be a basis for cooperation.
As expected, after seeing Tang Zhen fall silent, the young man’s eyes trembled as he took the initiative to speak,”I’ve been able to sense some invisible elements in the air since I was young. They are usually arranged together in a very regular pattern, but once disturbed, they will instantly become a mess.
When I left the room, I realized that something was wrong with my back. There was a chaotic elemental energy following me. However, I can’t see anything unusual with my naked eye, so I’m sure that there’s a guy who can make himself invisible and is following me from far behind.”
After the young man said these words in an indifferent tone, he looked at Tang Zhen, tell me, tell me your purpose. What’s the reason for you to set your eyes on an unknown nobody like me? ”
The young man’s eyes were stubborn and calm, but it could not hide the slight trembling of his arms in his sleeves.
After all, he was only a teenager. It was inevitable that he would be a little scared when he encountered such a thing that was beyond his common sense. For this young man to be able to do this much was already very good.
A person with such a temperament definitely had the potential to become a formidable character.
After knowing the reason why he was discovered, Tang Zhen did not intend to beat around the bush with the young man and directly said,”I want to work with you, be it cultivation resources, weapons, or even martial arts manuals, as long as you need it, I can provide it to you.”
The young man’s eyes moved. He lowered his head and was silent for a moment. Only then did he raise his head and look at Tang Zhen. There was a trace of determination in his eyes.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Since you want to cooperate and give me these things, what price do I have to pay? ”
Very good, you are indeed a young man who understands the situation. I like it!
Tang Zhen smiled and said,”I need all the information about Black Rock City. Whether it’s public or secret, I want it all.” And as long as you can provide valuable secret information, I can even pay you extra!”
“What do you mean by valuable information? be more specific!”
“For example, the location of the treasure vault, the information of the building foundation, the information of the cultivators in Black Rock City, and so on. I need all of this information.”
The black-clothed youth was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Tang Zhen with a cold and shocked expression, as if he was looking at an ambitious conspirator who wanted to overturn the city.
At this moment, the young man’s heart began to hesitate.
Tang Zhen’s words were like a demonic voice as they softly sounded in his ear,”Think about your dead parents, think about your sister who works hard for you all day, think about the enemy who killed your father and lived a life of luxury, and think about the classmate who bullied you and his Lackey, Yingluo.”
“Shut up, don’t say anymore!”
The young man’s eyes were crimson red. His wild beast-like eyes had condensed into needles as he stared intently at Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen did not bother about the young man who was about to explode. He merely continued to ask,”So, what do you think? Let me remind you, my patience is limited!”
There was silence and more silence. Finally, the young man said, ” “I’ll work with you, but you have to show me your sincerity first, right?”
“Very good, then tell me, Yingluo, what do you want?”
Tang Zhen was just like a devil that could lure one into the abyss. In the end, the young man obediently offered his soul.
“Brain beads, I want at least a thousand brain beads!”
The young man’s words caused Tang Zhen’s heart to Twitch. Damn it, could it be that this bastard could see through my storage space? how did he know that I only had a thousand brain beads left?
These brain beads were specially left behind by Tang Zhen in order to guard against unexpected needs. He didn’t expect that they would come in handy at this time!
There was naturally no room for hesitation at this moment. He had to let the young man see his rich and overbearing side. Therefore, Tang Zhen did not hesitate to wave his hand. Immediately after, a leather bag appeared in the young man’s hand out of thin air.
Feeling the heavy feeling of the leather bag in his hand and personally witnessing the process of the leather bag appearing out of thin air, the young man’s pupils shrank to the size of a needle tip. He had already regarded Tang Zhen as a super expert with terrifying strength.
At this moment, the young man even felt some regret. He should not have agreed to cooperate with Tang Zhen. However, when he thought of the various humiliations and unwillingness he had experienced in the past, the young man’s originally wavering thoughts became firm again.
He opened the bag and took a look. It was indeed a genuine Level-1 brainball. To the young man at this moment, this was a huge sum of money!
“I’ll come back to you in a month’s time. At that time, you’ll have to give me all the information you’ve collected. If you complete the mission well, the reward I can give you will definitely be beyond your imagination!”
After saying this, Tang Zhen directly activated the teleportation.
After instantly being unable to sense Tang Zhen’s existence, the young man was once again shocked. After a moment of silence, the young man gritted his teeth and turned around to leave.
Ten minutes later, Tang Zhen once again appeared on the same spot. However, an inexplicable smile was lifted on the corner of his mouth.
