Chapter 831 - Using Carrot and Stick Treatment (2/2)
“Are they also cultivators?” asked Spectre.
“They are,” answered Tang Xiu.
Spectre was speechless, and the anger on his face slowly subsided. He then turned to look at Ammos and Ammosai twitching on the floor, and said desperately, “I’ll agree to follow you, but I also know a Chinese saying that an Emperor never lacks hungry soldiers. What benefits can you give me?”
The jade bottle in Tang Xiu’s hands instantly entered the Four Divisions Array and floated in front of Spectre as he slowly said, “There are two medicinal pills inside this. You can increase your strength, even if you only take one of them. Of course, you’ll have to learn an Immortal cultivation technique before you can take these medicinal pills. But I’ll teach you a set of Immortal cultivation techniques and turn you into an immortal cultivator.”
“I can also become an immortal cultivator?” Spectre stared at Tang Xiu dumbfoundedly with disbelief in his eyes.
“Nothing is impossible in my eyes.” Tang Xiu nodded and continued, “Once you become an immortal cultivator and work hard in your cultivation, with the aid of medicinal pills, let alone just surpassing your current strength, it won’t be a problem for you to reach the state where you are 10 million times more powerful than currently.”
“I agree!” said Spectre with excitement.
He might be a prisoner here, but his identity in this prison was very special—even the highest-ranking official in this prison wouldn’t dare to offend him. Thus, he could leave this place easily if he wanted to do so, despite him being guilty of his crime and sentenced here. Even if he didn’t want to be detained here, there were only a few people in the world who could catch him.
Hence, that was why he was angry and unwilling to be intimidated! Yet, being tempted with such benefits gave him ecstasy.
He was never short on money, nor was he lacking in glory over the years. He had his own way to earn if he so wished to, and he had countless women if he wanted them. But today, the desire of becoming stronger filled his heart. Despite being coerced right now, he was given a chance at a great opportunity.
“I… We agree too.”
Ammos’s distorted complexion, who was still convulsing on the floor, suddenly lifted, as he difficulty squeezed out those words that stiffly came out of his throat. Although Ammosai didn’t speak, he also chose to agree.
Tang Xiu smiled lightly in response and waved to retract back the two blue crystals. After the two brothers gradually recovered and calmed down, he removed the Four Divisions Array that trapped Spectre inside. Then he turned back to sit on the previous chair said, “I already read all the information on you all. The three of you should be the strongest inmates in labor camp in 1319. However, what I want to build is an army of cultivators and I’ll need a lot of men. The objective of my arrival to Tel Aviv this time is to bring out at least 100 prisoners with decent strength from this place.”
“Over 100 men?” Spectre was astounded and perplexedly said, “Do you perhaps want to cause a prison break?”
“Not really. I’ve always believed that things that can be solved with money never require the use of violence and force.” Tang Xiu shook his head. “Besides, my arrival here is a very secretive issue, so I don’t want any outsiders to investigate it. So, I’ll just have to spend some money to buy you out.”
“That’s impossible!” Spectre shook his head and said, “Even if Augustino values money like his life, he wouldn’t dare to sell so many convicts at the same time.”
“He wouldn’t dare indeed, but that’s not true of Gus Gilles and Sander.” Tang Xiu sneered, “As long as the criminal charge of selling prisoners is placed on Augustino, Sander’s official position will not only increase, but he and Gus Gilles can also earn a huge fortune.”
“Is this your plan?” asked Spectre while squinting his eyes.
“That’s right.” Tang Xiu nodded.
“There are a lot of ability users around Augustino from what I’ve found out.” Spectre shook his head and said, “He’s also quite a powerful man himself. Although he’s a bit weaker than me, not many can stand up to fight him. You will first need to kill that Augustino fellow. But since I already chose to follow you, I’ll eliminate those ability users around him!”
“I’ll send two people to help you later since he’s a tough guy,” said Tang Xiu indifferently. “As for our next move, I still need to stay in this prison to secretly pick the prisoners worthy of my purchase. You three can tell me if you have suggestions or those who you can recommend.”
“Alright.” Spectre nodded.
The two brothers, Ammos and Ammosai, exchanged glances and nodded in unison. They had just suffered from inhuman torture and were heavily injured at this time, so they were self-aware of their condition and didn’t promise to help solve the ability users around Augustino.
Tang Xiu took out two Holy Healing pills and threw them to the brothers and said, “Take these and your injuries will recover in a short time. Also, I’ll grant you each another medicinal pill, but you’ll take that pill after you learn a set of Immortal cultivation techniques from me in the future!”
“Thank you…”
“Call me Boss starting today onward,” said Tang Xiu.
“Thank you, Boss,” said the duo again.
Tang Xiu lightly smiled. However, he did not feel relieved to accept them like this, so he demanded the three men not to resist as he cast a Restriction Art seal on their bodies and fully controlled their lives.
At this time, hundreds of prisoners in nearby cells had heard the noises from the cell no. 1. Although many of them were secretly surprised that someone would provoke that fiendish devil inside that cell, none of them actually moved to take a look.
However, the five people in the opposite cell no. 18 knew that the one who entered the cell was Tang Xiu. But what shocked them the most was that the screams were not from Tang Xiu, but the two brothers in the cell no. 2.
