Red Phoenix

Lu Benwei looked at him calmly and smiled faintly. “You won’t.”

Zhuo Quan’s lips twitched when he heard that. “Are you so sure?”

“Of course.” Lu Benwei took a sip of tea unhurriedly and heaved a sigh of relief. “Because you also want the Pegasus Mercenary Corps to be eliminated. Unfortunately, your identity doesn’t allow you to do so.”

Zhuo Quan was surprised, and his mouth was slightly agape. “How did you know?”

“The reason why the Pegasus Mercenary Corps is so lawless is because an extremely large force is supporting them. Otherwise, on the first day the Pegasus Mercenary Corps caused trouble in Jiao City, you’d have sent people to chase them out.”

As soon as he said this, the little mouth of the woman opened wide. “Darn Hongyi, why didn’t I think of this?”

Lu Benwei nodded slightly and looked at Zhuo Quan. “That’s why you really need someone like me to come forward and clear out the Pegasus Mercenary Corps. That way, the power behind the Pegasus Mercenary Corps will not blame you.”

Zhuo Quan’s lips twitched. Lu Benwei could simply read his mind.

“What do you want to do?”

Lu Benwei’s lips curled up.

Zhuo Quan gasped when he heard that. His heart started to ache, and he had a feeling that he was going to bleed.

“Whatever you need, as long as it’s not too much, I can satisfy you.”

Lu Benwei smiled faintly. “It’s very simple. 100,000 catties of red pearls.”

“100,000 catties?!”

Not only Zhuo Quan, but even Ji Han also felt that Lu Benwei was asking for too much.

“I remember that the annual trading volume of the red pearls in Jiao City is only about a million catties, right? You want to take one-tenth of the amount just by opening your mouth?” Ji Han said in disbelief.

Lu Benwei rolled his eyes at her speechlessly. “Shut up. Who are you with?”

Ji Han stuck out her tongue and shut her mouth. Zhuo Quan frowned. “Brother Lu, with such a large transaction volume, even if you sell it, it will arouse suspicion. I’m afraid that I’ll still offend the power behind the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.”

“Who said I was going to sell it? Can’t I use it myself?” Lu Benwei asked.

He had only just learned that the red pearl could extract a liquid of the Red Phoenix’s true blood, which had the effect of cleansing the marrow and strengthening the strength and physique.

Most importantly, the true blood of the Red Phoenix could purify the power of the bloodline. It could allow the origin bloodline to sublimate to the extreme and become the true origin bloodline.

This was why Lu Benwei needed a large number of red pearls.

Zhuo Quan was shocked to the extreme.

“Brother Lu, it’s true that the red pearl can refine the Red Phoenix’s true blood, but you have to know that the bloodline power in the Red Phoenix’s true blood is extremely pure. Ordinary bloodlines can only withstand one drop. Every ten thousand catties of red pearls can be refined into one drop of Red Phoenix’s true blood. Are you going to use the rest?” Zhuo Quan asked in shock.

“What else can I do?” Lu Benwei raised his eyebrows.

Zhuo Quan was shocked by Lu Benwei again. He did not know what to say.

“If Brother Lu really needs it, I can think of a way,” Zhuo Quan took a deep breath and said, “However, 100,000 catties of red pearls are indeed a little difficult.”

“Then there’s nothing to talk about.” Lu Benwei spread out his hands and leaned back in his chair.

“However, I can get you 70,000 catties first. I’ll need some time to give you the remaining 30,000.” Zhuo Quan gulped.

“And I have a condition,” Zhuo Quan said after a pause.

Lu Benwei raised a hand, signaling Zhuo Quan to continue. This was originally a transaction, and Lu Benwei could not just take everything.

“There are a total of six team leaders of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps in Jiao City. I need to ensure that four of them are killed,” Zhuo Quan said solemnly.

Lu Benwei pondered for a moment. “The latter condition isn’t possible. I need to wait for my friend.”

“No!”

Zhuo Quan gritted his teeth, his face full of secrecy.

“I have already made a concession.” “What’s there to be afraid of? Does Master Zhuo know some inside information?” Lu Benwei rubbed his chin.

Zhuo Quan’s lips twitched. “In short, the power behind the Pegasus Mercenary Corps isn’t something you can afford to offend.”

“Then I can agree to your conditions, but I want to know who’s behind the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.” Lu Benwei started to bargain.

Zhuo Quan shuddered. “You, what do you want?”

“If the other party is like the Pegasus Mercenary Corps, domineering and committing crimes, I don’t mind eliminating them,” Lu Benwei said calmly with a deep gaze.

Zhuo Quan almost fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth twitching. “Who’s this person?”

Lu Benwei smiled faintly and saw through Zhuo Quan’s thoughts. “Don’t doubt my identity. I’m just a nobody.”

“Alright, since you insist, I’ll divide the forces of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps and the northern wilderness for you.” Zhuo Quan heaved a sigh of relief and admitted defeat in front of Lu Benwei.

“I think you should know that the Pegasus Mercenary Corps robbed houses in the outskirts of the northern wilderness like locusts. They were looking for something.”

Lu Benwei nodded slowly. He had heard about this from Ji Han.

“They are helping a party to find a medicinal herb.”

“Is it the Red Phoenix divine medicine?” Ji Han suddenly said.

“Yes!” Zhuo Quan admitted.

Lu Benwei frowned. “Red Phoenix’s true blood and Red Phoenix divine medicine. What does the northern wilderness have to do with Red Phoenix?” action

He knew that the Red Phoenix was an extremely powerful ferocious monster. There were also legends about it in the Dragon Kingdom.

According to legend, the Red Phoenix was even larger than the giant roc. When it spread its wings, it could cover the world. When it flew in the sky, it could rain fire and evaporate the great swamp.

There were even rumors that the Red Phoenix could burn the entire ground to ashes when it was angry, and it was extremely terrifying.

“Brother Lu, have you never been to the northern wilderness before?” Zhuo Quan frowned and asked in surprise.

“Yes, as I said, I’m a nameless soldier who has traveled the four seas and came from the east.” Lu Benwei was on guard.

Zhuo Quan replied, “Oh, no wonder. I’ve never heard of the legends of the northern wilderness.”

Then, he squinted his eyes and asked, “Brother Lu, have you noticed the environment of the northern wilderness?”

Lu Benwei nodded. At this point, Lu Benwei suddenly thought of something and shuddered.
