The Azure Sword God
Negotiating

Deathly Forest

Jian Chen who hit the tree trunk slowly stabilized his body. He endured the pain in his back, even though his body was strong, it would still hurt. His gaze was still fixed on Xin Yuan who was looking at him with a look of disbelief. He raised the corner of his lips as he had guessed that the previous attack was the strongest attack Xin Yuan had.

“It seems you have the power. Do you still have any more powerful techniques? If yes, then do not hesitate to take it out.” Jian Chen grinned as he pointed the Azure Sword towards Xin Yuan who was kneeling on one leg on one of the tree branches.

Hearing what Jian Chen said, Xin Yuan put on a dark face like the charred butt of a frying pan. The previous attack was the strongest technique he had. If the opponent managed to forcefully defeat his technique, then it was certain that he could not possibly win. He still remembered about Jian Chen and Xiao Yu fighting him along with Xin Yan when he was in Texas City.

“Don't be a fucking cocky!” Xian Yuan roared furiously. He still did not want to let go of Mythril because it could improve the quality of his Birth Weapon. He immediately pulled the bowstring and fired an arrow of qi while jumping on top of another tree branch.

Staring at that, Jian Chen only snorted. He immediately moved as well to get closer, he realized that he would not be able to injure Xin Yuan if their distance was very far. The Flying slash he used could definitely be avoided by Xin Yuan so he had to cover the distance in order for his attack using the qi blade to hit the target unavoidably.

To Xiao Yu, staring at Jian Chen who had moved was directly attacking towards Xin Yan who was currently staring at Jian Chen with a grim face as well.

“I'm your opponent!” Xiao Yu who had taken out his wings immediately shot towards where Xin Yan was.

“Damn it!” Xin Yan roared furiously and instantly shot an arrow of qi towards Xiao Yu which shot out at high speed amongst the trees.

The sraing! The sraing! The sraing!

Jian Chen continuously launched flying slashes towards Xin Yuan who had recovered the condition of his right arm that was originally trembling from enduring the pain of launching the strongest technique he had.

Although Xin Yuan's current body was exhausted, he would not be that easily defeated by Jian Chen. As long as his physical strength was not depleted, he could not possibly lose even though he might not win as well against Jian Chen.

Jian Chen who had originally deliberately provoked Xin Yuan's anger also felt helpless. In order to defeat Xin Yuan, he also learned that he had to force Xin Yuan to exhaust his physical strength. Otherwise, he would also not benefit at all.

However, Jian Chen was very confident that if the fight continued, victory would fall in his hands as his physical strength as well as stamina were far superior to Xin Yuan's. Even so, to make someone as strong as Xin Yuan exhausted, it was certain to take all day.

Jian Chen who was currently launching slashes flew continuously towards Xin Yuan thinking whether he should let Hui-Ying fight. But he instantly put aside his thoughts about it because Hui-Ying's speed would not be able to make him dodge the attacks from Xin Yuan constantly.

“Is there no other way?” Inner Xin Yuan who was staring at Jian Chen continued to dodge his attacks grew even more frustrated. He also realized that Jian Chen's physical strength and stamina were higher than him so that sooner or later he would lose.

“Bokah! Let's negotiate! This fight means absolutely nothing!” The haughty Xin Yuan for the first time even tried to negotiate.

Jian Chen who wanted to launch a flying slash attack once again instantly came to a halt.

“What do you want?” Jian Chen asked as he placed the Azure Sword in his hand.

“You must know that not if Mythril was able to improve the quality of the Birth Weapon. The amount needed for Mythril who was there for one increase was two pieces. The number of Mythril stones was ten. What if we do a truce and split the Mythril stone?” Xin Yuan asked after making up his mind.

Xin Yan who heard that did not try to restrain her twin brother from negotiating because she knew that she also could not win the fight against Xiao Yu.

“Oh? Alright. The number of Mythril stones there were 10 pieces. We will take six.” Jian Chen instantly made his proposal as well.

“Do you not know too much shame?” Xin Yuan cussed Jian Chen into a pig for being too greedy and his appetite too great. The reason he did not agree, of course because one Mythril fruit can also be sold at a high price.

“Partments 50-50!” xin Yuan said again.

“Why should I receive 50-50? If the fight continues, we will win. I just gave you a face and gave you four pieces. Don't push yourself too much. After all, we have three.” said Jian Chen pointing towards Hui-Ying shamelessly.

Xin Yuan's lips trembled violently when he saw Jian Chen count the little tiger that was inside his clothes.

“Accept or not? If not, then I will accompany you until you are exhausted. I can do this all day and at that very moment, I will harvest all the Mythril stones for myself.” Jian Chen said.

Xin Yuan and Xin Yan gnashed their teeth to the point of sounding out. To deal with someone like Jian Chen, they could be insane.

Xin Yuan did not speak and moved towards where the Mythril stone was located. Jian Chen also moved as he would not release the stone.

It was already a kindness according to Jian Chen as he gave the four pieces of Mythril stones to Xin Yuan and Xin Yan.

When he reached the Mythril stone, Xin Yuan took out four pieces and jumped straight into a tree branch a fair distance away.

Xin Yuan just stared at Jian Chen taking the six pieces with red eyes but he did not try to stop him. He is someone who has high self-esteem and is not the type of person who reneges on his promises. And this was also true for someone like Jian Chen.

“Alright, thank you for doing business. If you do this from the beginning, then we don't have to fight it out.” Jian Chen grinned as he stored the six Mythril stones.

Xin Yuan could only stare at Jian Chen with a deathly gaze. If such a gaze could kill someone, then Jian Chen would die a thousand times.

“I'll remember this. Brother, let's go!” Shouted Xin Yuan and instantly darted among the trees followed by Xin Yan who was staring at Xiao Yu with a murderous gaze for a while.

Jian Chen only grinned as he stared at the departure of the Xin brothers. The reason he agreed to give four pieces, was because he was completely unwilling to waste time against troublesome enemies like Xin Yuan and Xin Yan.
