Chapter 226: Secret Agent
Going back to the night before, that was the night when the second stage of the Yan Shen Empire’s Gu Dao Convention ended.
That was also the night when Fang Yuan and Bai Yao had a conversation in the small garden.
At that time, in a secret room in the Zhang clan’s residence in the Yan Shen Empire’s capital, the clan heads of the Zhao clan, Qi clan, Wang clan, and Mu clan had gathered here for a secret meeting as well.
At the end of the meeting, when the heads of the four clans saw the True Demon Heart Binding Gu in the hands of clan head Zhang Huan, the shock in their eyes was not concealed at all, so the Wang clan head quickly asked.
“This… clan head Zhang Huan, if I am not mistaken, the True Demon Heart Binding Gu in your hands should be from the Gu Demon Sect, right?””Read more on newn0vel/org”
“That’s right, I did not expect your eyesight to be so good. This is a top secret Gu worm from the Gu Demon Sect!”
After the explanation from Zhang Huan, everyone finally understood the usage of this True Demon Heart Binding Gu worm.
And it was also after Zhang Huan finished explaining his request and asked everyone to agree.
The clan heads of the four great clans were not fools. This Zhang Huan asked them to do such a dangerous thing, but he himself did not really give anything, and all of this was just empty promises.
But all of this could only be fulfilled after the mission was completed.
Hence, the Wang clan head continued.
“Then clan head Zhang Huan, we request that the Gu Demon Sect provide a certain amount of help when we take action! If we encounter any danger during the operation, we will definitely need the help of the Gu Demon Sect.”
“Hahahaha, alright, alright, no problem. I can make the decision for this small matter myself, I will get them to help you guys out.”
Zhang Huan laughed out loud.
“Sigh, clan head Zhang Huan, you are wrong! We do not mean to let the Gu Demon Sect interfere during the operation. Why bother them with such a small matter? We can do it!”
The Wang clan head looked at the Zhang clan head with a hint.
“Oh, clan head Wang, then I am a little confused. What do you mean?”
Zhang Huan was stunned for a moment before he asked.
“Of course, it is to provide us with something that can help us increase our efficiency to complete the mission!”
The Wang clan head continued to speak. At the same time, his hand gently patted the table, while his eyes were staring at the True Demon Heart Binding Gu in clan head Zhang Huan’s hand.
At this time, he finally heard the strange tone in the Wang clan head’s voice, and he followed the Wang clan head’s gaze and saw that it was the True Demon Heart Binding Gu in his hand.
“Oh hahaha, I understand what you mean, I understand, I understand everything!”
Zhang Huan extended his right index finger, pointing at the Wang clan head as he said with a smile.
“You just want some special Gu worms from the Gu Demon Sect to help you complete your mission!”
Zhang Huan asked with a raised tone.
“Er…yeah, yes, that’s it!”
The Wang clan head was embarrassed at first, but after a moment of hesitation, he admitted it.
“Hahahahaha, so that’s the case. Let me ask, do you all have the same idea?”
Zhang Huan looked at the Zhao clan, Qi clan, and Mu clan heads and asked.
The heads of the other clans looked at each other and nodded their heads.
“Yes, we need a guarantee!”
It was not just the profits that could be obtained after this investment. Those things were not important.
“You and I both know that those benefits only have a one-time use and cannot last long. So, let me speak my mind. Compared to the profits after this activity, I value the friendship between my clan and the Gu Demon Sect more! ”
“If I can use this opportunity to deepen the cooperation with the Gu Demon Sect, then I can represent our Wang clan to sign the agreement here!
“No! I can even swear a poison oath to the True Demon Heart Binding Gu.
“My Wang clan is okay with not taking any of the benefits from this operation. I can donate all of them to the Gu Demon Sect just to obtain the Gu Demon Sect’s friendship!”
The Wang clan head looked at everyone present and said confidently.
“Oh, I never knew that the Wang clan head actually values the Gu Demon Sect’s friendship so much! I underestimated you previously!”
Zhang Huan also spoke as if he had just gotten to know the Wang clan head.
At this moment, the other three clan heads of the Zhao clan, Qi clan, and Mu clan looked at each other, but they were unable to make up their minds after a long time.
Although they wanted to maintain their relationship and friendship with the Gu Demon Sect, and even wanted to develop further, their own clans were facing all sorts of problems.
They could not allow themselves to personally promise the benefits of the entire clan here. It was not that they did not want to do so, but reality did not allow them to do so.
The three of them hesitated for a while, but in the end, they did not make up their minds.
At this time, Zhang Huan, who was sitting at the head of the table, saw through everyone’s expressions and made a decision in his heart.
“Alright, thank you for thinking so highly of me, then my Zhang clan will definitely not mistreat you, and will not let you give up your clan’s manpower and resources for nothing, and only take a verbal promise from me.”
“How about this, since everyone has already agreed to my request, then in order to help everyone, I will also make a firm decision, and at the same time show the importance that the Gu Demon Sect and I place on this operation. I will provide you with two special Gu worms.”
“With these, I can guarantee that you will be able to gather the strength of everyone in your clan!”
“You can make them completely listen to your orders. If you make them go east, they will not dare to go west. If you make them go forward, they will not dare to go backwards.”
“Oh, I wonder what Gu worm you are talking about, clan head Zhang Huan? Take it out and let us have an eye-opening experience!”
The Zhao clan head seemed to have just found his position. He quickly regained his senses and said.
“Come, everyone, please take a look!”
Zhang Huan clenched his right fist, and the True Demon Heart Binding Gu that was still in his palm disappeared!
And when his right hand opened again, there were four blood-red Gu worms that looked like teacups.
“These are the Blood Refined Killing Intent Mother Gu that I personally requested from the Gu Demon Sect’s saintess Bai Yao. There are four of them, one for each of the four clan heads.”
Following that, the four clan heads of the Zhao clan, Qi clan, Wang clan, and Mu clan each took a Gu worm and examined it carefully.
This blood-red teacup-like Gu worm was only the size of an infant’s fist. The lid of the teacup could be opened, and inside the teacup was a blood-red tea leaf that looked like it had dried up.
“Forgive our poor eyesight, what is this thing? We have never seen it before!”
The Wang clan head looked at the Blood Refined Killing Intent Gu in his hand and said to Zhang Huan.
