A Level Two Golden Immortal Realm cultivator from the Void Merchant Guild was besieged by three Divine Race cultivators. He struggled to defend himself, and some of the wounds on his body had been burned by the Holy Light.
Another first-rank Gold Immortal was cleaved on the shoulder by a second-rank Gold Immortal of the Divine Race. His entire arm was almost severed, and golden blood spurted out.
Seeing this, Wu Yuan’s eyes flashed with worry.
He knew that if they continued fighting like this, they would not be able to last long.
But he couldn’t back down.
Because David is still in the tomb.
If he retreated now, David would face attacks from more than thirty members of the Divine Race when he reappeared, and he would definitely die.
With David’s death, all his plans failed miserably.
Wu Yuan gritted his teeth and swung the Dark Abyss Sword fiercely, releasing a dark golden sword aura that slashed towards Yan Huo.
Yan Huo dodged to the side, and the golden spear stabbed towards Wu Yuan’s chest.
Wu Yuan didn’t have time to dodge and was hit by a spear in his left rib, leaving a fairly deep blood stain.
The silver-white armor was torn, and dark red blood spurted from the wound, dripping onto the ground.
He backed away quickly, widening the distance between himself and the flames.
Yan Huo did not give chase. Instead, he stopped, looked at Wu Yuan, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
“President Wu, you won’t last much longer. Your troops are almost at their limits. If you know what’s best for you, surrender, and I might consider giving you a quick death.”
Wu Yuan gritted his teeth, his golden-red eyes bloodshot.
He turned his head and glanced towards the entrance of the stone tomb.
The stone gate remained tightly closed, and David had not yet appeared.
He glanced at the battlefield again.
Five cultivators from the Void Merchant Guild had fallen, and the rest were all injured, their combat power greatly reduced.
Although the Protoss also lost seven or eight people, they still had more than twenty people left, giving them a clear advantage.
Under these conditions, they really couldn’t hold on any longer.
Wu Yuan took a deep breath, stuck the Dark Abyss Sword into the ground, placed his hand on the hilt, and stared at the flames.
“Vice Palace Master Yan, let us discuss some terms.”
Yan Huo raised his eyebrows. “What are the conditions?”
“Let’s stop this bickering.” Wu Yuan’s voice was calm. “If we both suffer heavy losses, no one will benefit. Let’s sit down and talk, then divide the resources here fairly.”
Yanhuo was silent for a moment, then smiled.
“Equally divided? Your Void Merchant Guild only has around a dozen people, while our Divine Race has over thirty people. Why should we divide them evenly?”
Wu Yuan shook his head. “Vice Palace Master Yan, that’s not how you calculate it. You outnumber us, but you’re all injured.”
There are more of us than you, but we have David. David alone is as strong as twenty of you. Do you think you can win if it really comes down to one-on-one combat?
Yan Huo’s expression changed slightly.
David.
He almost forgot about this person.
In the Desert of the Fallen God, David finished off Yan Po, a peak level three Gold Immortal, with a single slash of the sword.
In the Northern Chasm, David wiped out a group of people from the Hall of Light and eliminated an elder of the Hall of Light who was a level four Gold Immortal.
David then led three hundred Qingyun Cave disciples to destroy the Bright Palace in one day, and personally finished off the Holy Light Heavenly Venerate, a fifth-level Golden Immortal.
This young man, who was at the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm, could not be judged by ordinary standards.
If David emerged from the tomb now and joined the battle, the Protoss might not win.
Yanhu was silent for a long time.
His fingers gently stroked the spear, and his golden-red eyes gleamed with a thoughtful light.
“Where’s David?” he finally asked. “Where is he?”
Wu Yuan pointed at the stone tomb, “Inside. An elder from the Taoist sect is talking to him.”
“Talk?” Yan Huo frowned. “What are you talking about?”
“I don’t know.”
Wu Yuan shook his head. “But I know one thing: David will be much stronger when he comes out. He’s been inside for half an hour, and his cultivation has probably already reached a breakthrough. If he comes out to help us, not a single member of your god race will escape.”
Yan Huo’s expression became increasingly serious.
He knew that Wu Yuan was not trying to scare him.
“How do you want to divide it?” Yan Huo asked.
Wu Yuan smiled. “It’s simple. The resources in the tomb will be divided equally between our Void Merchant Guild and your Divine Race.”
David’s share comes from his own share.
Our Void Chamber of Commerce prioritizes business and profits.
It is now clear that teaming up with your Protoss race is more profitable. Therefore, we have chosen to work together.
Yan Huo looked at Wu Yuan, his red-gold eyes filled with suspicion.
“President Wu, you were just fighting to the death with me a moment ago, and now suddenly you want to cooperate. Do you think I will believe you?”
Wu Yuan took out a silver-white token from his pocket. The front of the token is engraved with the logo of the Void Merchant Guild, and the back is engraved with the four words “Honesty is the foundation”.
“Vice Palace Master Yan, I, Wu Yuan, swear in the name of the Void Merchant Guild that everything I said above is true. If there is even a single lie, may the reputation of the Void Merchant Guild be destroyed throughout the heavens and the universe, may my cultivation be completely destroyed, and may I die a terrible death.”
Void Merchant Guild’s reputation.
Among the various universes, the Void Merchant Guild enjoyed the best reputation.
They keep their promises and never break their commitments. If members of the Void Merchant Guild took an oath in the name of the guild, it meant they were telling the truth.
Because the reputation of the Void Merchant Guild is more valuable than anyone’s life.
