These four minutes passed by in the blink of an eye Southern Lone Blade and the others did not know the exact ti in front of them Meanwhile, Gu Fei checked the time and more or less confirmed that this whole auction transaction had come to a close If Southern Lone Blade had notwatch over it, could the Utopian Magic Staff have really been bought off but not retrieved?
Gu Fei wondered as he turned to regard the seven an to express their astonishment
“Has it ended?” Southern Lone Blade asked
Gu Fei nodded
“How could that be?” six out of the seven men croaked
Gu Fei could not
The seven exchanged glances During this period, they had devoted a ic staff, but the conclusion they had gotten was truly toofor an entire afternoon; The winners would be euphoric, and the losers would becoe next time However, for soot was akin to not existing at all, and it would ht
“During our entire lookout here, we've been interrupted several times…” Southern Lone Blade reflected None of them believed that there would be a player out there would purchase the Utopian Magic Staff and not retrieve it, so Southern Lone Blade was convinced that they must have slipped up on their watch this whole period
“Perhaps, there's a ht under our noses?” Glue guessed
Southern Lone Blade shook his head in a daze, for he si expended soto show at the end of it, such a conclusion could potentially be fatal to everyone involved
Even though Gu Fei could not completely approve of their actions, he was rather sympathetic when he sa dejected each of them looked He realized that this bunch ofwas not ‘clean', at the very least, the level of perseverance and earnestness they shoorth affir
“You guys shouldn't be so bothered by this onna set up a workshop, so join us! There won't be any need for you guys to keep co crimes anymore” This time, Gu Fei officially extended the invitation to thereally sincere as he did so
“Thanks!” Southern Lone Blade expressed his gratitude for his teas to settle”
“You guys still want to carry on?” Gu Fei was a little dissatisfied when he heard this
“Having taken the client's otta at least account for it,” Southern Lone Blade explained
“Silver Moon's the guy who hired you guys for this assign they had already deduced
“Yup!” Southern Lone Blade was no longer denying this now that things had reached this point
“What are you gonna do?” Gu Fei asked
“According to the conditions we've set, failure to accootta return double the deposit” Southern Lone Blade sighed
“Why even care about that unscrupulous guy? Just keep that money as pocket money!” Gu Fei said
Southern Lone Blade's men looked at Gu Fei in surprise, taken aback that this man would turn out to be so unprincipled Actually, this was a result of both parties having different standpoints and thoughts about this issue The seven were viewing this e factor After all, how could a ive a deposit when there were no binding conditions to safeguard their reed that Silver Moon was a scu that they had even laid out an ambush for him to vent their frustrations that one ti still had such a deep-rooted belief of paying back the deposit in double upon failing an assignment and would not make an exception even for so consideration to the overall situation
“Aheh it was Gu Fei who had offered such a suggestion, the seven men were a little uncomfortable with it
“Weren't you guys preparing to ao? What's up with that?” Gu Fei had been pondering on this and could still not make sense of it even now Fortunately, he finally had the chance to ask this now that their two parties were set to build a closer relationshi+p
“Ahe” Southern Lone Blade and the others all showed an aard look Their attee-induced decision they had rashly made due to their inability to deal with Gu Fei, and theseto mention it
“Did you succeed?” Gu Fei asked
“Nope We kept a lookout the entire day and didn't discover where that man was,” Glue answered
“What a waste” Gu Fei sighed with regret before perking up “You guys are gonna pay hiht? Do you intend to meet him in person?”
“Uh… Nornment, we ask the client to ive the money e, in person,” Southern Lone Blade said
“Yes, just like what you did with Slyris” Gu Fei nodded
The sevenif Gu Fei had intentionallythat his expression re without any ill-intentions, the seven reckoned that it was siuilt at work, so they soon calmed down
“Frouys aren't planning to do the same with Silver Moon?” Gu Fei asked
“That's right We can't be bothered to uy, so my plan is to send a mail and enclose the money within as we call it quits,” affirmed Southern Lone Blade
“Why not use this chance to invite him over and slay him after?” Gu Fei asked
None of the seven ed Clothes as very taken by the idea Having been slain by Gu Fei a few times, he wished to experience what it felt to work side by side and slay soe
“Okay Glue will contact Silver Moon Since I no longer have hiet suspicious if I take the initiative to invite hih as ever Gu Fei sighed Southern Lone Blade's ga caliber is topnotch, and he's quite adept at schemes and plots, too He's truly a man of talent
“Bro, we failed to get the Utopian Magic Staff Sorry about that When are you free to ive the double deposit e you” Glue sent thiswas normal
“In that case… forget about et about the double deposit as well Considering our relationshi+p, if it's too inconvenient for you guys, just consider the deposit as my prepayment! I'ether in the future Ha ha!” Silver Moon laughed theentirely consistent with the slick and sly nature he was known for Even though this was a conclusion he had keenly hoped for froold-coin recompense in the end, as this was not what he needed at this time
This reply left Glue feeling greatly astonished, and he quickly relayed this e to Southern Lone Blade and the others
“That guy…” Southern Lone Blade sucked in a sharp cold breath Silver Moon was scu sort At the very least, with how little he regarded these thousands of gold coins, it only showed how high the hts on Presently, this was his atte to repair and strengthen the relationshi+p between the two parties His usage of the term ‘prepayment' was even cleverer To put it htly the two parties were bound together If this was just Silver Moon foregoing the double deposit he ed, Southern Lone Blade and his men would see it as a favor froold coins that was being ‘gifted', it would, instead, leave Southern Lone Blade's tea in debt to Silver Moon Whattone he had when talking about this prepayment; the choice of whether this sum ritten off or otheras essentially placed entirely in Silver Moon's hands At the end of the day, Silver Moon did not waste a single coin at all but, instead, left Southern Lone Blade's gang heavily indebted to hi possible
Silver Moon's move here would surely have succeeded if this was just like any other time; Unfortunately, his notoriety for his scummy ell-known by now Besides, Southern Lone Blade was not exactly someone who could be easily dealt with in such rily, “Immediately send that scum the money e, and make sure its the double cost! I really don't intend to have any further dealings with that man”
At the same tiuard given his current situation, so I doubt that he's going to agree to meet us in person”
Gu Fei nodded “You're right We'll talk about this at a later period, then!”
“Hmm So, what now?” Southern Lone Blade asked
“Do you guys have anything else left to settle?” Gu Fei asked
“Nope Everything will be settled once we pass by a mailbox and dump the money into a letter for Silver Moon whenever we please,” Southern Lone Blade replied Using words like ‘pass by', ‘dump', and ‘whenever we please' was more evidence of how much the man despised Silver Moon
“In that case, followin its entirety,” Gu Fei suggested
“Okay!” Southern Lone Blade nodded, and the seven men followed him out of the Auction House and the city These men did not completely trust Gu Fei at this tied Southern Lone Blade, wondering if Gu Fei had ulterior motives
Southern Lone Blade could not be bothered to put tooexpended plenty of ti forward to some relaxation time, so he casually handled these worries Still, as he looked at Gu Fei leading the way, he could not help but feel a little perturbed as well
Meanwhile, Gu Fei had already infor Southern Lone Blade's team to join them
“That took so Master Han commented offhandedly Royal God Call and War Without Wounds were still a little unhappy about it The for like a child with a difficult tee over Southern Lone Blade originally ranking above hih that er ahead of him, War Without Wounds still held certain reservations to the man Sword Demon had no comments about this, but it was actually Brother assist as really pleased with this outcoinally friends with Southern Lone Blade, but things had gotten aard between the Brother assist could not be any happier, orthe hatchet and return to hoas before
