Dai Xuan winced inwardly when he heard the high asking price.
If Jiao Jun really killed Ye Chen this time, he would demand one-fifth of the Dai family's property.
If the so - called second senior brother mentioned by Xu Mu asked for an even higher price, how much would he want?
Could it be half of the Dai family's property?
"Brother Xu Mu, I remember Jiao Jun is your fourth senior brother. What about your third senior brother? Why are you directly introducing your second senior brother to me?"
Dai Xuan said.
He thought that, in comparison, the third senior brother should be cheaper than the second senior brother.
"To be honest, I don't have a third senior brother. I only have a third senior sister, and she definitely won't come."
Xu Mu explained with a smile.
He thought he should drain the Dai family as soon as possible. After all, people weren't stupid and definitely wouldn't give him so many opportunities.
Maybe after paying once more, they would start looking for others.
"I see."
Dai Xuan nodded slightly.
"I think you'd better forget it. Ye Chen is too powerful. You should go and apologize to him and see if he can forgive you."
Xu Mu continued to create a sense of crisis for them.
"How is that possible?"
Just from the way Ye Chen looked this morning, Dai Feiying knew that he would never let the Dai family off.
"Then you figure it out on your own. For example, you can look for people on the Death List or invite experts from other sects."
After saying that, Xu Mu got up from the sofa. "I'm leaving."
"Wait! What's the cultivation level of your second senior brother?"
Dai Feiying immediately asked.
The top three experts on the Death List were indeed unfathomable, but to invite them to take action, it wasn't about money.
It was about top - grade natural treasures. The most precious thing the Dai family had was a seventh - grade natural treasure.
Maybe those experts wouldn't even look at it.
As for sects, he didn't know anyone.
The only sect he was familiar with was the one he used to belong to.
To invite someone above the Grandmaster level, he felt that the entire assets of the Dai family wouldn't be enough.
"I'm not sure either. Anyway, he must be stronger than the fourth senior brother."
Xu Mu replied without hesitation.
Dai Feiying thought for a moment and then said, "How about you call and ask now? Let us have an idea."
"My second senior brother generally doesn't answer the phone. I'll send him a message. If he calls back, I'll inform you."
Xu Mu walked towards the door. Before leaving, he didn't forget to threaten them again, "The fourth senior brother told me that Ye Chen said he would kill you first. As long as you have the Dai family's bloodline, none of you will be spared. You should be careful these days."
After saying that, Xu Mu opened the door and left.
This time, Dai Xuan didn't even follow him out. He slumped on the sofa as if he was completely exhausted.
Dai Dongyang and Dai Wenlin also looked extremely pale.
They regretted it deeply now. Why did the Dai family threaten Ye Chen when he opened a company in Yang City?
Now they were hated by him, and their lives were in danger.
"Grandpa! What should we do?"
Dai Dongyang asked with a pale face.
"How should I know!"
Dai Feiying clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles turned white. "Now we can only wait for Xu Mu. I have to say, the Zhengde Faxie Sect is really powerful. Maybe his second senior brother can really kill Ye Chen."
Just then, Dai Xuan's phone vibrated.
He looked at the call and immediately answered it, pressing the speakerphone. "Brother Xu Mu, what's up?"
"I think you'd better find someone else to help. My second senior brother replied to the message. His asking price, you definitely won't agree to it."
Xu Mu's voice came from the other end.
"Tell us first. How much does he want?"
Dai Feiying bent over and said loudly.
"To get him to take action, you need to pay 150 billion first. After killing Ye Chen, you need to pay another 50 billion, or give two ninth - grade natural treasures or a kind of divine medicine."
Everyone present felt their breathing become rapid when they heard Xu Mu's voice.
150 billion. Who would have so much cash on hand?
Even if you deposited this money in the bank, with an annual interest rate of 3%, you could get more than ten million a day.
To raise so much money, they could only sell their assets.
But if they sold so many assets, it would cause a systemic panic, and the assets would become less and less valuable.
Dai Xuan looked at Dai Feiying. "Dad, what should we do?"
"Brother Xu Mu, the Dai family holds controlling stakes in many companies. We're willing to transfer the companies to your second senior brother. What do you think?"
Dai Feiying thought for a while and said.
Hearing this, Dai Xuan nodded secretly. If they did it this way, they wouldn't lose so much.
"I'll ask again, but I think he probably won't agree. He's a cultivator. What does he need a company for?"
After saying that, Xu Mu hung up the phone.
Dai Feiying took a deep breath and slumped on the sofa.
...
Xu Mu had already gotten in the car. The Dai family was quite smart, planning to transfer the companies.
However, he wasn't stupid either. Whether to use the companies to offset the money depended on the profitability of the companies.
If they were some useless companies, Xu Mu definitely wouldn't agree.
On his way back, Xu Mu suddenly received a call from Jiang Huihui.
"Huihui, what's up?"
"Where are you now? I'll come to you."
Jiang Huihui said on the other end.
Xu Mu smiled and said, "I'll come to you. I'm just in Yang City."
"Great. I'm right at the entrance of the Yang City Sanitation Department."
Jiang Huihui was speaking over there.
Xu Mu hung up the phone and immediately drove there. When he arrived, from afar, he saw a beautiful woman in casual clothes with her hair casually scattered.
When Jiang Huihui saw Xu Mu, she immediately got into the car and sat in the passenger seat.
"What's the matter?"
Xu Mu turned the car around and left there.
"Two things, and they're both good news."
As Jiang Huihui spoke, she blew a bubble. "First, I checked the comprehensive score ranking. According to the scores, I'm currently ranked tenth."
"Are you going to be the team leader?"
Xu Mu was also a bit surprised and delighted.
"It's not that simple. It mainly depends on the final competition. However, as long as I can rank in the top ten, I'll be recorded in the files by the higher - ups. In the future, if I want to become a council member, this will all be a plus."
Jiang Huihui leaned back on the seat. "Thanks to you."
[Favorability + 20]
She knew that almost all of these score - adding projects recently were thanks to Xu Mu's help.
Especially the capture of the elder of the Yin - Yang Sect and that member of the Jiuli Tribe last time.
After the capture, she found out that this elder was at the Grandmaster level.
Obviously, she didn't contribute much, but in the end, she was credited with a great achievement.
"You're being polite. We're all on the same side."
Xu Mu smiled and glanced at Jiang Huihui. "Wasn't there another good thing?"
"Recently, the Sanitation Department discovered a new relic. This time, the higher - ups rewarded it to me, and I can go in for exploration first."
Jiang Huihui showed a faint smile.
Xu Mu nodded. There was also a record of this in the plot.
First of all, the people who search for relics generally have a low cultivation level. Since Longguo is so vast, if only high - level experts were to search for relics, the efficiency would be very low because there are few high - level experts.
So the Sanitation Department uses a wide - net approach to search for relics.
After finding them, they will notify the Sanitation Department, and the Sanitation Department will reward these newly discovered relics to those with meritorious deeds.
Few people know about the relics that haven't been recorded by the Sanitation Department, so there's a high probability that there are treasures inside.
And these cleaners who go in to look for treasures can also familiarize themselves with the environment inside and report it back to the Sanitation Department later. It's a win - win situation.
However, this is all the ideal state, and there are still many uncertain factors.

He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter.

So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all."
