Chapter 155 ends, communicating with Liu Lei

Seeing that their offensive had begun to show results, Hong Huang and Ling Qingyue looked at each other with understanding, as if they had a tacit understanding that needed no words, and then they started their exquisite cooperation that was seamless and perfect once again.

Ling Qingyue smiled and added sincerely to City Lord Liu, "Please rest assured, City Lord Liu! This batch of pills has undergone rigorous scrutiny, from the selection of materials to the refining process to the final quality control. Their quality is absolutely impeccable. Furthermore, for someone like you who has such deep ties to the Demon Blood Cult, we will definitely prioritize you and provide you with the highest level of assistance and support."

At this time, Hong Huang, standing by, took over the conversation, his face also filled with an enthusiastic smile, and continued, "Not only that, City Lord Liu, I have great news to tell you! The Demon Blood Cult has now mastered a new and mysterious method. It is said that through this method, a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage can successfully break through to the Spirit Transformation stage in just one month. Just think about it, if many members of your family, City Lord Liu, can successfully advance through this method, then your family's strength will be greatly improved, becoming even more powerful!"

However, although Liu Lei's face was blooming with a smile as bright and beautiful as a spring flower, he was actually very clear in his heart - although what the two people said in front of him sounded extremely tempting, the real information contained in it was probably incomplete.

Take the example of the Nascent Soul breaking through to the Incarnation Stage. Even if one can achieve the goal in a short period of time using this method, the cultivator who eventually succeeds in breaking through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage will most likely be no different from oneself, and is merely a pseudo-Spiritual Transformation with a false name. The so-called advantage is nothing more than that the breakthrough speed is slightly faster than before.

"I never expected that your sect would give us such tremendous assistance and support. As a reciprocal exchange, we must provide even more abundant resources than last time. Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the sincere heart that your sect has given to our Liu family?" City Lord Liu said solemnly.

"Hahahahaha, it's a great honor for our Demon Blood Cult that City Lord Liu has such an idea! Recently, in order to fully devote ourselves to the research and development of these rare items, our sect has expended a huge amount of manpower, material resources, financial resources, and other precious resources. If we can be grateful for City Lord Liu's generous help at this moment, it would be like a timely rain after a long drought, a timely help!"

Hong Huang responded with a big smile on his face, but the other three people present knew very well in their minds how much truth there was in his words. After all, this was just an excuse he used to ask Liu Lei for more benefits.

Liu Lei nodded slightly, then pondered for a moment before continuing, "Since that's the case, after careful consideration, we've decided to provide your sect with 50 high-quality spirit stones, the essence and blood of over 100 exotic creatures, and 5 kilograms of refined iron. We hope these supplies will help your sect achieve further breakthroughs and development in related fields."

After hearing Liu Lei's words, Hong Huang and Ling Qingyue couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but they were both experienced people in the world, so they naturally would not easily show this surprise. After all, for supplies that only needed to be collected once a month, the amount provided by Liu Lei this time was enough to equal the amount provided in the past for a full five months. This undoubtedly meant that their mission this time had been exceeded.

Hong Huang smiled and said, "Since City Lord Liu is so generous and hospitable, we will not refuse. The Demon Blood Church will remember this kindness. If there is an opportunity in the future, we will repay City Lord Liu for his kindness today."

Liu Lei also laughed heartily and responded, "You two envoys are too polite! This city lord is merely showing his hospitality. Although I would still like to have a chat with you all, I am unfortunately busy with many trivial matters in the city and cannot spare the time. I can only take my leave first. However, the two envoys are welcome to take advantage of this time to wander around Jigui City and have fun. When night falls, this city lord will definitely host a banquet to see you off."

At this time, Ling Qingyue was about to decline the dinner invitation, but before she could say anything, Hong Huang on the side suddenly reached out and gently pinched her arm. Ling Qingyue was slightly stunned, and instantly understood Hong Huang's intention, so she stopped talking and nodded to Liu Lei to express her gratitude.

"Thank you City Lord Liu for your generous help. We will always remember your kindness today. Well, let's say goodbye now and see each other again when night falls." Hong Huang said sincerely, then waved his hand lightly and pulled up Ling Qingyue beside him. The figures of the two became blurred in an instant and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving Liu Lei sitting alone on the spacious and magnificent main throne.

After Hong Huang and Ling Qingyue left, Liu Lei's face, which had previously held a hint of a smile, suddenly darkened. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "I never thought I, a cultivator at the Spiritualization Stage, would have to be so servile and subservient to these two mere Golden Core Stage juniors. It's truly a great shame and humiliation! Demon Blood Sect, you damned fellows, just wait! One day, I, Liu Lei, will break free from your bondage and control!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly extended his right hand and swung it fiercely at the chair beneath him. A powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted, and in an instant, the intricately carved sandalwood chair gave a heart-pounding cracking sound and then shattered into pieces, sending wood chips flying everywhere. Liu Lei slowly stood up, his eyes wide with anger as he gazed at the wreckage on the ground, his anger still lingering.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down a bit, and then shouted, "Come here! Replace this broken chair immediately. Remember, before I come back next time, this place must be restored to its original state, as neat and tidy as it was this morning! If there's even the slightest mistake, I won't forgive you!"

As his order was given, several servants hurried over, began to clean up the scene, and prepared to replace new seats.

"What happened to you just now? Why didn't you leave earlier? Are you worried about the young man holding the heavy sword at the banquet yesterday?" Ling Qingyue asked with an unhappy look on her face.

"In a few days, Jigui City will elect a new city lord. Don't you want to stay and take a look?"

"How did you know?"

"Don't worry about that. As for why I have to meet with Liu Lei tonight, you will know when the time comes."
