Qin Wushuang opened both of his hands:
You see, I did say that there is no one I cannot make connections with.

Qin Wushuang stood up with a laugh and he did not care about the girls pouting lips. Instead, he threw out a piece of gold banknote extravagantly:
Each of you can have a share, you guys split it up yourselves. After the business, we will meet again if time permits, ha ha ha.

These girls were partially cute and loved money much more. When they saw the gold banknote, they forgot about Qin Wushuang and went to split the money with joy.
Qin Wushuang said to Little Cui:
Stop glaring, you will have yours, and it’s much more than theirs.

This way, Little Cui face turned to joy:
I knew that Young Master Wui is the most generous.

Qin Wushuang laughed:
Lead the way.

With extreme joy, Little Cui lead the way in the front. She twisted her little waist and shook her butt like a flower to show her happiness.
She walked outside a luxurious suite and Little Cui knocked softly:
Master Zhu, Young Master Wu is here.

A hoarse voice came from inside:
Let him come in.


Yes.

Little Cui turned her head and said:
Young Master Wu, Master Zhu is asking you to go in.

Qin Wushuang did not hesitate. He already sensed that the person inside the suite would not pose any threat to him, and he did not seem very hostile.
Instantly, he opened the door and walked in. Little Cui also walked in and poured drinks for these two smartly.
That Zhu Yun had a head shaped like a leopard, and his expression appeared extremely swift and fierce. Especially in between his eyes, there was a deep scar that made his expression appear even more fierce.

Sit.

After sizing Qin Wushuang up for a moment, Zhu Yun spoke.
Qin Wushuang smiled leisurely and sat down. He did not rush to speak and only looked at Zhu Yun while wearing the trace of a polite smile on the corner of his mouth.

Your surname is Wu?
Zhu Yun asked straightforwardly.

Yes, Master Zhu, you can call me Young Master Wu, or Little Wu. The name is not important.


Oh? What is important?
Zhu Yun looked at Qin Wushuang carefully with a somewhat inspecting eyes.

What is important is whether you would be interested in hearing some of my sincere words.

Zhu Yun was not easy to win over as he spoke with a cold tone:
There have been hundreds and thousands of business people who have wanted to make a connection with me. Do you know why I want to see you?


Why?
Qin Wushuang heard his unfriendly tone and became alert.

It’s simple, when Little Cui came over, she immediately praised you all over the place. Even if I am not interested in your business, I want to see you in person.

Little Cui could not help but to feel somewhat worried when she heard the strangeness from Zhu Yun’s tone. She had lost all color in her face.
Qin Wushuang still remained calm:
Ha ha, it seems that Master Zhu is not interested in my business. If that’s the case, I will not disturb you. Instead, I will contact others to make this deal successful. It would ensure that they hold a high position and great wealth.

Zhu Yun smiled coldly and said:
A lifetime of great wealth and high position? How is this of value? How is it worthy in my eyes. I am not interested.


Then I don’t know, what are you interested in?
Qin Wushuang asked with a smile.
Zhu Yun said angrily:
I don’t need to tell you. Even if told you, how would you, a little businessman be worthy?

Qin Wushuang said with a smile:
I could make a guess.


Oh?
Zhu Yun laughed,
Guess.


Master Zhu should be interested in training at the Nine Palace Faction and becoming their Core disciple. It’s much better than wandering around in the secular world waiting for the death, yes or no?

Qin Wushuang had simply thrown out a major bomb. He knew that this Zhu Yun would not be moved by normal benefits.
He had simply exposed his secret. Only this way, he could grab Zhu Yun’s attention. Indeed, as soon as he spoke the words, Zhu Yun’s expression darkened and his eyes became sharp. He started to size Qin Wushuang up seriously. His expression appeared as if he was interrogating a criminal.
Qin Wushuang acted at ease. He was not scared that Zhu Yun was acting with such fierceness. If Zhu Yun was as mistrustful as Zhang Baidang, he would be more worried.
Suddenly, Zhu Yun waved his hand and said to Little Cui:
Leave.

Little Cui desired to escape this place when she saw the intense atmosphere between these two. She answered and was about to walk out.
Suddenly, Zhu Yun said:
Do not say anything unnecessary when you go out, or else, you know the consequences…

Little Cui immediately nodded with a ashen face:
I will not speak a word.

After Little Cui had gone out, she carefully closed the door and left hurriedly.
Zhu Yun glared at Qin Wushuang and after a while, he said:
It seems that you do not intend to do simple business with me.

Qin Wushuang said with determination:
It’s for business, but a risk free one. After this business succeeds, there will be endless benefits.

Zhu Yun had become interested in his words:
What does it have to do with the Nine Palace Faction?


Of course, it has nothing to do with the Nine Palace. However, currently, it seems that Master Zhu is not even in the Upper Sky, right?
Qin Wushuang’s eyes were like a torch and had seen through this Zhu Yun, inside and out.
Zhu Yun sighed and did not deny it. Indeed, he was only at the peak of the Pre-Sky Realm. Although his strength was above average in the imperial capital, he was not in the Upper Sky, not to mention the Middle Stage.
And under Zhang Baidang, he was only an ordinary disciple. Although he held a good social standing, most times, he was only borrowing his teacher’s name. Or else, those young masters and young nobleman in the imperial capital would not be respectful to him, a warrior at the peak of the Pre-Sky Realm.

Mister, just speak your intention, don’t try to beat around the bush.
Zhu Yun said unhappily.

Great!
Qin Wushuang clapped the desk,
I will stop equivocating. I must tell you that when I travelled from the Sky Travel Empire, I want to sell a top confidential secret to someone that understands this value.


What news?


This is not an ordinary piece of news. After you have finished listening, if you are not interested, you must never tell it to a third party. Or else, I will not tell you.
Qin Wushuang pretended to show off this deceitful trick and appeared as if he truly had something. Naturally, since this Zhu Yun was at the peak of the Pre-Sky Realm, he could not see through Qin Wushuang. At this moment, he had completely fallen into Qin Wushuang’s trap.

Tell me quickly, I am not some big mouthed old lady. Besides, your non-capital business is not easy to make with anyone else in this imperial capital.
Invisibly, Zhu Yun had put a hat of respect on himself to show his position at the imperial capital.
Qin Wushuang smiled and said:
I see. That’s the reason when I feel that you would be a very good partner when I heard about you from Little Cui.


Yes, at least you know the situation.
Zhu Yun’s tone softened,
Tell me, what business.


Ok, this business comes from one of the countries in the East, was it the Vermillion or something? Regarding which country, I don’t know. However, this news is one hundred percent reliable. This country is one of the major alchemy sects in the Sky Travel Empire and they had ordered a batch of supreme quality pills. There are a few dozen of Initial Stage Pill at the supreme quality, and about ten Middle Stage Pill of the supreme quality. I heard that there are one to three Advanced Stage pills at the supreme quality! And this batch of pills will be transported in about half a month after I left the Sky Travel Empire. They will be escorted in a low profile back to the East. And the imperial capital of the Red Dragon is a place they must pass!

Qin Wushuang’s serious words had made Zhu Yun’s heart pump.
Especially when he heard the words of
Initial Stage Pill at the Supreme Quality
, his entire face had almost become twisted and appeared extremely fierce. His throat moved up and down and asked in a low voice:
Are you sure this information is hundred percent accurate?


If there is a mistake, I would rather give my life to you!

This way, Zhu Yun seventy percent believed him . In the territory of the Red Dragon, this outsider would rather promise with his head, this thing might not be one hundred percent believable, but not far from it.

Are there more information?
There was a trace of fanaticsm in Zhu Yun’s eyes.

Yes!
Qin Wushuang continued to make up the story,
The one escorting these pills all keep a low-profile and excels in disguise. They are not very strong but all at the Upper Sky level. There are about three to four people.


What do you mean? We will make a non-capital business and loot them directly?
Zhu Yun asked with a smile.

Not us, it’s you guys.
Qin Wushuang said with a smile,
I am only responsible for selling you the information, and don’t have the strength to rob these Upper Sky warriors. However, Master Zhu, since you have the Nine Palace connection, you can assemble a group of elite warriors. You don’t need much, as long as you have five Initial Stage warriors, you will succeed. If there are any Middle Stage warriors, with my accurate information, you will absolutely not lose.


Middle Stage warrior?
Zhu Yun became silent. Among the people he knew, only his teacher, Zhang Baidang was at the Middle Stage. Did he need to ask his teacher? He would not be able to make the promise.
After all, Zhu Yun was only a rather ordinary disciple to Zhang Baidang.
Qin Wushuang noticed the hesitation in this Zhu Yun as he continued to fan the flames:
Master Zhu, whether you succeed or not, it depends on your instant thought. If it does not work, I will go ask others. Time is limited, those escorting the pills will come in these three or five days. The more you delay, the less the chance to succeed. I don’t ask for much, I will only ask to receive a small portion of each set of pills.

After a moment of hesitation, finally, Zhu Yun gave in to his greed. He thought about those benefits of that Initial Stage Pill at the supreme quality, if he could contribute, how could his teacher not give him one?
This person also said that there were about ten Middle Stage Upper Sky pills. There were even Advanced Stage pills. He could persuade his teacher to come out with that Advanced Stage pill.
Zhu Yun knew that his teacher also needed the stimulation from such a miraculous pill since he had stopped at the Middle Stage. With this pill, he would have the hope of pursuing that Advanced Stage!
When he thought there, Zhu Yun could not help but ask:
Mister, are you sure there are Advanced Stage pill of the supreme quality?


Most likely, I wouldn’t dare to say with absolute certainty.
Qin Wushuang deliberately took a step back to show less certainty in his tone. This way, it would be much easier for his words to be believable.
