Chapter 280 Alliance Hehehe
At the banquet, they saw the God of Annihilation, a young man of extraordinary bearing, surrounded by many nobles and merchants seeking his protection.
His appearance made the atmosphere of the banquet even more lively, and his presence was undoubtedly the focus of the banquet.
Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling knew they had to approach cautiously, avoiding unnecessary attention. Dressed in formal banquet attire, they blended in with the guests, trying their best to remain inconspicuous.
Their eyes were alert as they observed their surroundings, searching for the right opportunity.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the banquet, they stealthily approached Lord Annihilation. At this time, the sounds of music, conversation, and laughter mingled together, providing cover for their actions.
Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling moved with lightness and speed, weaving through the crowd like shadows, gradually approaching Wanmie Shenjun.
As they approached the God of Annihilation, Yun Muhan gently patted his shoulder, drawing his attention. The God of Annihilation turned around, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
When Wanmie Shenjun saw the divine sword, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. The sword's aura was extremely similar to the Undying Sword Technique he cultivated. This resonance made him immediately realize the importance of Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling.
He knew that this sword was more than just a weapon; it might contain the secrets of the Undying Sword Technique, and might even be closely connected to his cultivation and destiny.
"Come with me, let's find a quiet place to talk," the God of Annihilation said in a low voice, his voice exuding an unquestionable authority.
He led them away from the banquet and into a private room, away from the noise of the event, an ideal place for conversation.
The God of Annihilation cut straight to the point: "Let's talk! How much do you want in exchange for handing over this sword?"
His intuition revealed his high regard for the sword and his willingness to pay the price for it.
As a powerful being at the Divine Lord Realm, he was accustomed to directness and efficiency, and to him, the value of this sword far exceeded any amount of money.
The Complete Annihilation God was very direct. He did not ask Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling for their names or other details, because in his opinion, even a person in the Divine Tribulation Realm would look down on someone in the Divine Transformation Realm, let alone someone in the Divine Lord Realm with such a huge gap.
Dugu Jianling held his head high with arrogance, his voice filled with pride: "Do you know... what kind of sword this is? How could I be bought with money?"
"One million amethysts."
Dugu Jianling: "I agree."
Yun Muhan had been observing the aura of the God-Slaying Lord and discovered that he had already cultivated the Undying Sword Technique to the second level. Only now did he realize that Dugu Jianling was a greedy bastard.
Yun Muhan quickly reprimanded Dugu Jianling: "Can you please stop being so shameless?"
He then quickly turned to the God of Destruction and respectfully said, "This is a divine artifact—the Undying Divine Sword. This junior does not ask for money, treasures, or pills; I only hope that senior can lend a hand."
"Make a move? Killing a few people is easy."
Hearing Wan Mie Shenjun's nonchalant reply, Yun Muhan felt slightly relieved, but he also knew that things wouldn't be that simple. He continued, "It's not just about killing a few people, but about stopping a conspiracy that could cause turmoil across the continent."
A hint of interest flashed in the eyes of the God of Annihilation, and he gestured for Yun Muhan to continue.
Yun Muhan then told Wanmie Shenjun in detail about the "Shadow Moon Society's" plans and the intelligence they possessed, including their desire for the secrets of the "Star Tower" and their covetousness for the resources of the Central Continent.
After listening to Yun Muhan's account, Wanmie Shenjun remained silent for a while before slowly speaking: "This matter is indeed of utmost importance. If the 'Shadow Moon Society's' ambitions succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable. You have done a good job in bringing this message to me."
Although Dugu Jianling was somewhat embarrassed by the money transaction just now, he said seriously, "We are not doing this for money, but for the peace of Zhongzhou."
The God of Annihilation nodded, his gaze lingering on the Undying Divine Sword for a moment before he said, "I accept this sword. In exchange, I will help you stop the Shadowmoon Society's conspiracy. But remember, this is not just your business, but the business of the entire Central Continent."
“Senior is very powerful. Since you are willing to take action, Zhongzhou will be safe. However... I am worried about the Shadow Moon Society behind the scenes.”
The gaze of the God of Annihilation was sharp as a knife; he had clearly realized the meaning behind Yun Muhan's unfinished words. Although the Shadow Moon Society's actions were rampant, they could not have such ambition and power without the support of a larger force.
“Your concerns are not without merit,” said the Divine Lord of Annihilation in a deep voice. “If there is indeed a Divine Lord-level force controlling the ‘Shadow Moon Society,’ then this struggle will be a contest between Divine Lords.”
Yun Muhan nodded. Although he was only at the Nascent Soul stage, his wisdom and courage were no less than any Divine Lord. "This junior understands that a contest between Divine Lords is beyond my reach, but I am willing to do my best to contribute to the peace of Zhongzhou."
The God of Annihilation expressed his appreciation for Yun Muhan's attitude. "It's good that you have such determination, but battles at the God of Annihilation level are not child's play. What you and your companions need to do is assist me while protecting yourselves."
Although Dugu Jianling valued money somewhat, he cared even more about the safety of Zhongzhou. "What should we do?"
After pondering for a while, the God of Annihilation slowly said, "First, I need more intelligence. The 'Shadowmoon Society's' operations involve multiple levels, and I need to know their specific plans and the supporters behind them."
Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling nodded. They knew that intelligence was key to this struggle. They decided to use their connections and resources to gather more information about the "Shadow Moon Society."
