Chapter 106: Harmony

  After the Golden Horned Wolf's death, its fur is no longer as hard as steel needles like when it was alive, but instead becomes extremely soft and smooth. If this fur were made into a luxurious coat to wear on one's body, ordinary knives and swords would find it difficult to cause harm. The flesh and bones of the Golden Horned Wolf are also a delicacy sought after by various wine houses in the Dragon Continent, you know, Golden Horned Wolves are not commonly seen. Some wolf packs with thousands of Iron Claw Wolves may not necessarily be able to find a Golden Horned Wolf King.

  Bai Hua looked at Xia Yan, whose face was expressionless but whose eyes were shining brightly, and then looked at the more than 100 mercenaries. In his heart, he was also speculating that if these mercenaries made a move against Xia Yan to snatch the Golden Horn, he and his few men would inevitably stand together with Xia Yan to fight against them.

  "Over a hundred people, their strength is much stronger than the robbers encountered outside the forest of evil. The leader of this group, his strength is probably already at the peak of later generations. Hopefully, these mercenaries won't really engage in combat with Xia Yan." Bai Hua's eyebrows were furrowed, and he didn't want both sides to actually fight either.

  Bai Hua knew that Xia Yan would absolutely not compromise and give up the Golden Horn just because the other side had more people.

  "Xia Yan, are you alright?" Bai Dui's slender and soft body jumped to Xia Yan's side in a few steps, pulling on Xia Yan's arm to examine him carefully. Her lively eyes rolled around non-stop until she saw that Xia Yan was uninjured, then patted her full and soft chest and let out a sigh of relief.

  Xia Yan's eyes looked at Bai Rui, smiled and said: "I'm fine."

  Xia Yan turned to the leader of the mercenary group after finishing his sentence to Bai Rui, no matter what, the other side had more than a hundred people. Xia Yan had just killed the Golden Wolf and consumed a lot of internal energy, he didn't want to provoke another conflict either, especially with Bai Hua and others around, nor could he escape by relying on his incomparable speed.

  "Is the captain interested in the body of the Golden Wolf?" Xia Yan's eyes flashed, and a smile appeared on his face as he asked.

  That team leader was slightly stunned, and then a smile spread across his face: "This brother's name seems to be Xia Yan? I'm Gao Da, Brother Xia Yan, would you be willing to sell us the corpse of this Wolf King?"

  Gao Da heard Bai Hua and others who had just passed by, calling out Xia Yan's name.

  If Xia Yan's strength wasn't that strong, Gao Da might have been able to snatch the Golden Horn from Xia Yan's hands. However, now that he saw Xia Yan kill the Golden Wolf King, he couldn't help but consider more options.

  Gao Da also thought about it and realized that even if he himself were to fight, he wouldn't be able to single-handedly kill the Golden Wolf King. In other words, Xia Yan's strength must be above his own. If they were to engage in a fierce battle, their side would definitely suffer heavy casualties. More importantly, if Xia Yan were to focus on escaping, it was likely that no one would be able to catch up to him.

  So, after careful consideration, Gada decided not to take the risk. Moreover, the other side had more than a dozen mercenaries, and earlier Gada had also seen the strength displayed by Bai Hua and others during their battle, these people's moves were all very ruthless, obviously they were all experienced old hands.

  When Gao Da asked this, Xia Yan nodded and his eyes softened as he said: "If Captain Gao Da is willing to offer a suitable price, I will sell you the corpse of the Wolf King."

  In fact, after Xia Yan obtained the Golden Horn, he had no interest in the Wolf King's corpse. Even if he was interested, it would be impossible for him to carry the Wolf King's corpse to find the Pipa Grass.

  "Heh heh, that's easy to say, but I wonder how many gold coins Xia Yan brothers want?" Gao Da's face sank slightly, and he asked with a stiff smile.

  Xia Yan deliberately hesitated for a moment before saying: "Then it's a fixed price, how about one gold coin?"

  "A gold coin?"

  "A gold coin?"

  Everyone present thought they had misheard!

  Is the fur of a Golden Wolf worth thousands of gold coins? But Xia Yan only wants one gold coin?

  Zhang Long was even more puzzled and shouted directly: "Xia Yan brothers, did you say it wrong? Is it one thousand gold coins?"

  Actually, one thousand gold coins is a low price.

  Bai Hua glared at Zhang Long, who immediately looked wronged and pouted, rubbing his forehead and no longer speaking.

  "Xia Yan hopes to achieve the goal of reconciling the conflicts between the two sides by doing so." Bai Rui walked to Bai Hua's side, raised an eyebrow and whispered.

  Bai Hua looked at Bai Rui, nodded and said in a low voice: "That's right, Xia Yan brother's brain is really clever, he can think of so many things in such a short time."

  Hahaha~

  Gao Da was stunned at first, but soon reacted and burst out laughing.

  "Alright brother Xia Yan, you're indeed a good friend. Let's do it at the price you mentioned." Gao Da said as he took out a gold coin from his body and personally handed it over to Xia Yan.

  Xia Yan reached out and took the gold coins, deftly putting them into his money bag.

  Gao Da turned around and waved his hand at the several mercenaries behind him. Those mercenaries immediately moved forward with expressionless faces and quickly carried away the corpse of Jin Jiao Lang Wang.

  "Summer words brothers, then we will take our leave first! In the future, if there is a chance, I must invite Summer words brothers to have a drink." Gao Da said in a low voice and slightly made a fist at Xia Yan.

  "Definitely!" Xia Yan also made a fist and said.

  Gao Dali led more than a hundred mercenaries, and in just a few breaths, they all retreated. These mercenaries were well-trained and had good discipline. In this sinful forest, they were also very familiar with nature, apparently often acting here.

  The mercenaries who had reached an agreement all retreated, and Xia Yan finally let out a sigh of relief. Being able to avoid conflict was the best outcome.

  Xia Yan looked at Bai Hua and Bai Rui again, and said lightly, "Are you both alright?"

  Her gaze shifted to others, seeing each and every one of them covered in blood, Xia Yan's heart was slightly moved.

  Only thirty miles into the forest, they encountered such a danger that almost destroyed the entire team, showing how treacherous the forest was. If luck wasn't on their side, death could come at any moment.

  "We're fine, just some mercenary brothers..." Bai Hua's face darkened, and he let out a sigh.

  The Lu family's children, their faces have already become much rosier, but now they no longer have the same arrogant attitude as before. The disdain they originally showed towards mercenaries is completely gone now. If it weren't for these mercenaries, they would have all died without even leaving behind bones.

  That Lu family's young lady, who was quite pretty, when looking at Xia Yan again, already didn't just have that little bit of liking, but also more respect, adoration, shyness and so on.

  Xia Yan not only looks handsome, but also has such great strength. Thinking of Xia Yan's magnificent sword that saved her from the wolf's mouth, Miss Lu's heart beats rapidly and is extremely moved.

  "Mr. Xia Yan, thank you so much for your help. If it weren't for you, we would have all been killed by the Iron Claw Wolf's deadly jaws." A young member of the Lu family stepped forward a few steps and bowed to Xia Yan.

  Xia Yan glanced at the young master of the Lu family, and although he didn't have a good impression of these young masters and misses, he also didn't have any particularly bad feelings. It was just a chance encounter, and he had saved the young master of the Lu family mainly because of the value of Bai Hua and the others, as well as that Golden-Horned Wolf King. If it weren't for this, Xia Yan might not have intervened even if he had encountered this situation.

  "You don't have to be polite, if you want to thank someone, thank Bai Hua and Bai Xue instead!" Xia Yan said with a wave of his hand.

  "Yes, yes, yes!" The young master of the Lu family replied in unison, "When we return to Baiqing City, we will definitely thank you again."

  "But now we don't want to continue practicing anymore, and we want to return to White Qing City as soon as possible. Why don't we head back now?" Lu's family disciple turned around and said to the crowd in a deliberating tone.

  This time of tempering, they will probably never forget for the rest of their lives. They grew up in a family and had never seen blood from childhood to adulthood, but this first experience was so brutal and crazy that it would have a great impact on them.
