The Great Saint of the Western Yu looked at the Old Elder with a cold smile, "So, are you here to invite me to take action together?"
"That's right," the Old Elder replied, looking at the Great Saint of the Western Yu. "If I were to act, there would be no reason for it, and it would easily attract the attention of other forces. Especially if the King of the Northern Heavens from Yong Nation truly has some cooperation with that person. If I act directly, it would definitely provoke the attention of Yong Nation, and they might intervene under the pretext of offending the Komodo Beast Clan. At that point, things would become extremely difficult for me."
"But if you act, it's different. You are the leader of the dark faction of the Black Dragon Society, and also the Second-in-Command of the Black Dragon Society. It is only natural for you to seek revenge for the Saint of the City Dragon; no one would doubt anything. I only need to assist you in secret, and at that time, killing that brat will be a piece of cake."
The Old Elder’s gaze was sharp, emanating a cold light.
The Great Saint of the Western Yu scoffed, "Ha, after all these years, you really haven't changed at all. You're still the same, a typical person who wants to be a mistress while pretending to be virtuous."
The Old Elder's expression remained indifferent, “How is my plan? If there are no objections, I will set off immediately to make arrangements. It's better sooner than later.”
“Is it just the two of us on this matter?” The Great Saint of the Western Yu frowned.
“Is that not enough?” The Old Elder sneered, “Western Yu, you can hide from others, but can you hide from me? Back then, you gained quite a bit from that arrangement. With your current cultivation level, I’m afraid you've already touched that realm, right?”
“Hmm?”
The Great Saint of the Western Yu suddenly looked over, his eyes icy, but he quickly smiled again, “Same to you.”
“However, I still need to find an additional helper.” The Great Saint of the Western Yu said coldly.
“An additional helper?” The Old Elder frowned.
“Yes, I need to find a chaos-level assassin from Heaven Beyond Heaven to act with us, but you will have to cover the expenses,” the Great Saint of the Western Yu said solemnly.
The Old Elder's face was filled with anger, “A chaos-level assassin from Heaven Beyond Heaven is extremely expensive. Not to mention asking him to deal with that Qin Chen, this person has already made a name for himself in the Southern Cosmic Sea. Given Heaven Beyond Heaven’s character, hiring a chaos-level assassin to deal with Qin Chen would require at least 100 million Emperor Crystals. Why waste that money?”
The Great Saint of the Western Yu coldly snorted, “Hmph, can you be certain that we can easily kill that Qin Chen?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“That Qin Chen's origins are mysterious, and he has the direct support of the Komodo Beast Clan by his side. Who knows what other means he has hidden? Spending 100 million is expensive, but at least we would have someone to take the lead and bear the blame. If anything happens, we can use this person as a scapegoat. How advantageous is that?”
“With our strength, can that Qin Chen really turn the world upside down?” The Old Elder’s expression was grim.
“Just buying insurance. If you are unwilling, then just leave. I can pretend today’s events never happened.”
The Old Elder hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, “Fine, I agree, but it needs to be under your name.”
“Rest assured, I know you don’t like to show your face,” the Great Saint of the Western Yu chuckled coldly.
“Then you should immediately arrange it. I will send you the 100 million Emperor Crystals as soon as possible.”
The Old Elder coldly snorted and, with a bang, his figure had already dissipated.
Once the Old Elder left, the Great Saint of the Western Yu squinted, “This old fellow is becoming increasingly formidable.”
He looked up at the distant cosmic starry sky, “A mysteriously appearing powerhouse, interesting. Let’s weigh exactly how capable this person is.”
