After stepping onto the flat ground, Cheng Fugui waved his hand again, and the torches on the wall lit up automatically, thoroughly illuminating the secret chamber!
This was a huge secret chamber, over a hundred square meters in size and several meters high. At first glance, it seemed quite empty, with only some tables, chairs, and wooden boxes. The wooden boxes were extremely crude, and the gaps between the exposed wooden boards revealed that they contained food, medicine, clothing, and water—basic necessities for life.
"Ah, this turns out to be one of Cheng Fugui's secret shelters! If something terrifying happens and his own strength can't resist it, he and his family would hide in this magically reinforced chamber to avoid disaster!" Yun Mo understood this and knew that such a secret chamber couldn't have just one exit. If it were blocked, wouldn't that be disastrous? "There must be a secret passage! A fox has many dens!" Yun Mo cursed in his heart. "We need to act quickly; if these two old foxes escape into the secret passage, it will be much harder to get them out!"
Yun Mo's eyes darkened as he pondered how to strike successfully in one blow.
Venturing deep into the enemy's camp was like entering a tiger's den to catch a tiger. Danger could come at any moment! But Yun Mo was even more aware that if he delayed, with the wealth of these two old men, they could hire a high-level expert like Ling Feng to hunt him down, which would be even more dangerous! People can be bought, it just depends on the price you offer. If Cheng Fugui were willing to spend a fortune, it would be a big problem for him!
Therefore, despite his severe neck injury, Yun Mo insisted on resolving this matter as soon as possible, otherwise, it would only complicate things!
Yun Mo's judgment was correct. These people wouldn't let him go. If he didn't come tonight, tomorrow there would definitely be a Tianyun expert tracking and hunting him, which would be extremely dangerous!
"Every cultivator has their own ultimate skills and trump cards. What if someone like Shangguan Huo has a hidden ability to instantly see through disguises or a long-distance tracking technique? Huo can hide his trump card, but can't others do the same?"
Yun Mo didn't dare to take any more risks, so he had to come!
The three of them sat down on the chairs. Cheng Fugui smiled and said, "Captain Wen, you can now tell me what the big matter is. I assure you, this place is absolutely safe, and no one else will hear a word we say!" He then looked at Yun Mo with bright eyes.
"Haha, this place is indeed very suitable!" Yun Mo agreed softly, then moved closer to Cheng Fugui and whispered, "Last month, my commander obtained information from another cultivator about a secret place. It's said to be the secret cave of a fallen great cultivator, which must contain many treasures! No one else knows about this yet, but the value of such a cultivator's cave, I believe, is well understood by both Manager Cheng and Manager Zhou, right?"
Cheng Fugui and Zhou Quan exchanged a glance! "It's indeed a treasure trove!" Both of their eyes were filled with excitement.
"Originally, my commander planned to lead us a few subordinates to secretly excavate the treasure next week, but unfortunately, he was suddenly attacked and died in the training ground, so the matter was delayed! However, only I and another captain know about it. After discussing, we thought it would be better to go and retrieve the treasure ourselves. But with just the two of us, we feel a bit weak. If we invite other high-level commanders to cooperate, we fear they might turn on us after the job is done! After much consideration, we believe that with our cultivation levels, we have a good chance of success with some high-level equipment, so I thought of Manager Cheng.
I believe Manager Cheng has considerable wealth. I want to cooperate with you. You can provide us with 100 million gold coins to support us, and we can buy a batch of high-level weapons to have the confidence to seek the treasure!
You see, the cave of a great cultivator is extremely dangerous. Without high-level protective armor and weapons, going in is a death sentence.
So, I came to visit Manager Cheng under the commander's name, hoping to cooperate with you!"
After finishing, Yun Mo fell silent and quietly watched the two men, whose eyes were flashing with excitement. He sneered inwardly.
Cheng Fugui was tempted!
But he knew he couldn't show too much eagerness. He also knew that Captain Wen wouldn't dare to deceive him! "You still need to develop in Purple Leaf City; how could you run away after taking the money? If you leaked the information, you would have nowhere to hide in the entire empire!"
So, he judged that this was real. He also knew that the other party wouldn't reveal the location for safety reasons!
"May I ask how you plan to cooperate?"
After exchanging a glance with Zhou Quan, Cheng Fugui asked Yun Mo quietly. This was about discussing the split.
Yun Mo chuckled and extended his hand.
Cheng Fugui also reached out and held Yun Mo's hand, their palms hidden by their sleeves.
In the Wisteria Empire, the way of doing business was the same as in Yun Mo's previous life with cattle and horse traders! They used hand gestures to indicate their prices, hidden by their sleeves so others couldn't see. This was a good way to negotiate!
Now, the two of them were using this method to discuss the split after the job was done!
Yun Mo slightly bent his thumb and pointed at Cheng Fugui's palm with his index finger. This meant 70-30.
Cheng Fugui's eyebrows barely twitched, clearly dissatisfied, but he knew the price wasn't too low. He was just providing the money to buy equipment, while the others were risking their lives. Keeping 70% was reasonable!
But he was still not fully satisfied. Greed was his nature, so he countered.
He hooked Yun Mo's palm with his little finger, indicating that he wanted an additional 10%, making it 60-40.
Yun Mo showed some displeasure, his face darkening as if he was deep in thought.
Then, Yun Mo flicked his middle finger, indicating that he could only add 5%, no more!
Cheng Fugui laughed inwardly and made a very happy gesture of agreement!
Actually, when he said he wanted an additional 10%, it was to give the other party room to counter. Yun Mo's counteroffer was exactly what he considered reasonable, so he agreed happily. "If this succeeds, it will be a huge turnaround. Even if it fails, it's just a loss of 100 million gold coins, which Cheng Fugui can afford!"
Yun Mo was also very happy. He sensed that this was the moment Cheng Fugui was most relaxed and happy, especially since his hand was still in Yun Mo's grasp!
In an instant, Yun Mo's aura changed, becoming extremely sharp and terrifying!
An invisible current seemed to stir in the secret chamber, making their clothes flutter loudly. Yun Mo had locked onto Cheng Fugui with all his focus, and this power transformed into a terrifying killing intent! At this moment, the Wen Junlai in Cheng Fugui's eyes turned into a bloodthirsty demon, and Yun Mo's spirit and energy had merged with his full internal power, filling the entire chamber with his killing intent!
The entire space seemed to congeal, and all these changes happened in an instant, catching everyone off guard!
Cheng Fugui roared and tried to pull his hand out of Yun Mo's grasp and retreat! His heart was pounding violently, and the sense of danger almost made him lose his soul!
Right at this moment, Yun Mo made his move!
