Seeing Li Xuan's unmoved look, Gan Wangdao raised his thumb and said, "Oh, I can't scare you. Forget it, I'll just get to the point with you."
"Please tell me." Li Xuan knew that the real conversation had just begun.
"The Imperial College needs a killer, and you are one of the suitable candidates." Gan Wangdao was indeed very direct, and said something that surprised Li Xuan.
"Let me be the killer?" Li Xuan was stunned for a moment and then understood.
For a person like him with questionable origins, strange and incomprehensible abilities, he is the most suitable person to be a killer.
Whether it succeeds or fails, the Imperial College can find many ways to make it never exist.
Li Xuan felt unhappy about being taken advantage of, but he was also a little curious. If the Imperial College wanted to kill someone, it could just do it directly, so why did it need to find a killer.
Unless...unless the identity of the person that the Imperial College wants to kill is unusual, and there are not many such people in the entire Spring and Autumn Empire.
"Can I refuse?" Li Xuan did not refuse directly. At the moment, the two parties were just like buying vegetables at the vegetable market, and a bargaining process was still needed.
If the other party can offer a price that makes Li Xuan feel satisfied, he doesn't mind being used once.
"Of course you can say no, but if the Imperial College and the Blood Drop Killers both dislike someone, you can imagine the consequences." Gan Wangdao said leisurely.
"Don't scare me. What I want to know now is how much I will be paid." Li Xuan retorted unceremoniously. He was not afraid of Gan Wangdao's threats. If he was angered, he would directly kill Gan Wangdao and then
If he escapes to another country, no matter how powerful the Imperial Academy is, he will not be able to catch him.
"Of course the reward is very generous. Whether you want money, secret skills, beauty, or even power, we can provide it." Gan Wangdao said.
Li Xuan rolled his eyes: "If you are willing to provide me with some spell materials, I can consider working for you."
"You don't even know who you want to kill, so you dare to agree?" Gan Wangdao asked strangely.
Li Xuan chuckled: "Wanyan or the Du family?"
Gan Wangdao's expression changed, and it was clear that Li Xuan's words had hit his mark.
Wanyan is the surname of the royal family, and Du is the surname of the national master. No matter which one is assassinated, it will be a shocking incident that shakes the entire Moon Shadow Realm.
"How did you guess it?" Gan Wangdao's face turned a little pale, which was very unusual for a Confucian scholar. The only explanation is that he was really surprised.
"There are only a few people in the entire Spring and Autumn Empire who cannot be dealt with by the Imperial College and can only assassinate secretly. If you think about it for a while, you will have an answer." Li Xuan said with a smile, and he unconsciously resurfaced.
That devilish smile made Gan Wangdao look even more unfathomable in his eyes.
Gan Wangdao's face turned blue and white. He was also a smart man, otherwise how could he become a Confucian scholar.
Probably because he was a fan of the authorities, he only realized the flaw in his words after listening to Li Xuan's words.
"It doesn't matter if you guessed it..." Gan Wangdao said, "But now you can't help but say it."
"In that case, just listen to my terms, otherwise I don't mind having a life-and-death battle with you first." Li Xuan said lazily, leaning on the carriage of the carriage.
Gan Wangdao realized more and more that he didn't understand Li Xuan anymore. Although he sent people to collect a lot of information about Li Xuan, when he really got to know each other, he realized that the young man in front of him seemed to be hiding more secrets.
"Tell me what you want, I believe the Imperial College can definitely meet your request." Gan Wangdao's plan originally included the option of killing people and silencing them, but seeing Li Xuan's performance, he quietly changed his plan. He had already made up his mind:
Li Xuan is the killer he needs.
"Ten high-quality shadow stones, ten high-quality flame stones, ten dead grasses, and a dragon shadow gem." Li Xuan slowly put forward his conditions.
The first three magic materials are actually the contents of the transaction between Li Xuan and Simade. With the help of the Imperial Academy, collecting these things is a piece of cake.
The last dragon shadow gem is the most important part of the conditions.
"The first three materials are easy to handle and I can give them to you at any time. However, the production of Dragon Shadow gems is quite rare and extremely valuable. I can't decide." Gan Wangdao hesitated.
"If it wasn't valuable, I wouldn't trade it. Don't you think those two are worth a Dragon Shadow Gem?" Li Xuan laughed.
Gan Wangdao pondered for a moment: "I can promise you the first three items within my authority. As for the Dragon Shadow Gem, I will contact the above and try my best to meet your requirements."
"Then I'll wait for your good news." Li Xuan said.
Gan Wangdao stared into Li Xuan's eyes: "I hope our conversation will not reach the ears of a third person, otherwise both you and I will be dead."
Li Xuan glanced at Gan Wangdao and didn't even bother to respond to him. He just knocked lightly on the carriage and the carriage stopped.
Gan Wangdao got out of the car and quickly disappeared into the night. After he left, the carriage restarted and headed straight for Jixia College.
In the carriage, Li Xuan folded his arms across his chest and lay on his back on the floor of the carriage. Countless unformed thoughts passed through his mind, but he could not form a complete train of thought.
But one thing he knew clearly was that the Spring and Autumn Empire was about to fall into chaos...
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Jixia College. Li Xuan got out of the carriage and sat directly at the driver's seat, while Ma Li disappeared in a very sensible manner.
After a while, just as the moon climbed over the treetops, Yao Lin and Bai Ziwei appeared at the gate of the college. They saw Li Xuan sitting on the luxury carriage and waving to them. The two women covered their mouths, but they could not hide their anger.
The smile on the face.
The two girls were obviously dressed up carefully tonight. Bai Ziwei was wearing a long red dress with a few shining gems on her chest and a circle of lace around her waist. Under the moonlight, she looked like a girl.
A graceful princess.
The long skirt fit perfectly and highlighted her curvy figure. Her slim waist could kill a man's eyes.
To be honest, Bai Ziwei doesn't dress up too elaborately on weekdays. She relies entirely on her natural beauty to attract men's attention. Now she dresses up a little and she is astonishing, which is really a feast for Li Xuan's eyes.
Yao Lin's dress also shocked Li Xuan. After seeing her for a few days, she actually changed her hair style and cut her short hair. However, Li Xuan had to admit that Yao Lin with short hair was more sassy and made her look more cool.
The lively and cheerful temperament is a perfect foil.
