Chapter 515 (2/2)

It was not that he was cold blooded, but if it wasn't for the chaos caused by the crowd which this woman was part of, the a.s.sa.s.sin wouldn't have had the chance to attempt to a.s.sa.s.sinate him. Of course, he was still highly grateful for what this woman did, so he repaid her with something else.

He told Du Xuanhao, ”Big Brother Du, look after her for me. Keep her alive.”

”Don't worry, she will be fine,” said Du Xuanhao with a nod.

Xiang Shaoyun then walked toward the three lumps of mincemeat and started looking for clues, trying to ascertain if these were members of the Rat a.s.sa.s.sins as well. Unfortunately, not much was left of the three, and they did not have any items on them that could reveal any clues.

Xiang Shaoyun did not bother wasting too much time on them. Instead, he went to the old man at the contribution platform and bowed, ”Thank you, lord, for helping this kid.”

He had already known that this was no ordinary old man from the incident with the four representatives from the academies. The person who stopped the disturbance when he was comprehending the Contribution Stele and the person who had killed the a.s.sa.s.sins was most likely this same old man as well. Thus, he had to properly voice his grat.i.tude.

The old man raised his murky eyes and said, ”You don't have to thank me. I am merely unwilling to see a genius of our race die an early death. If you really want to thank me, cultivate hard and kill more devils in the future.”

”This kid will remember that!” Xiang Shaoyun said solemnly. After a slight pause, he looked behind and yelled at Han Pojun, ”Big Brother Han, come over here.”

Han Pojun did not know why Xiang Shaoyun was calling for him, but he still went over. Naturally, Du Xuanhao went with him as well.

”What do you need, Young Master Xiang?” Han Pojun asked.

”You must have seen the contribution exchange catalog as well, right? There's a blood coc.o.o.n stone in there—” Xiang Shaoyun started speaking but was interrupted by Han Pojun before he could finish.

”Yes, I know that. But it's too expensive. I can't afford it. I'll just have to wait patiently and see if an opportunity will present itself for me to get it in the future.”

Han Pojun had a.s.sumed that Xiang Shaoyun was only notifying him that a blood coc.o.o.n stone was available for sale in the catalog. That was why he hadn't bothered to wait until Xiang Shaoyun was done talking. If he had enough contribution points and devil cores, he would have purchased the blood coc.o.o.n stone long ago. There was no point in taking the risk to get it from the Devil Domain instead.

Xiang Shaoyun smiled. ”Big Brother Han, let me finish. I am planning to purchase the blood coc.o.o.n stone for you to thank you for your help.”

”Do you even know how much it costs?” Han Pojun asked.

”500 million contribution points and 30 sovereign-grade devil cores,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”That's right. The contribution points aren't the hardest to get. Time is all you need. But the 30 sovereign-grade devil cores can only be gathered by Sovereigns,” said Han Pojun with a sigh. ”Young Master Xiang, thank you for the goodwill, but forget about this for now.”
