Chapter 91 A Transaction

"There must be some kind of deal between Xu Ruhu and Jie Lei."

Duan Rong paced back and forth, thinking silently.

Duan Rong suddenly thought of why the prison break happened at the dawn before the Taiyi Sect's envoy arrived.

He originally thought that this was a good time to free Lei Ka. He could suddenly break into the prison while Shen Yanliu was away and the envoy of Taiyi Sect had not arrived yet. In that way, the county government's search would inevitably be hindered and there would be chaos. The more chaotic it was, the safer he would be!
But now it seems that the truth may not be so!
"Their deal was only reached on the last day!" Duan Rong suddenly stopped and said, "Someone made a concession!"

"Because if the deal is not concluded, once the imperial envoy arrives, everything will be too late..."

Duan Rong muttered to himself as he paced back again!
"But, in this transaction, what did Xu Ruhu give to make Jie Lei willing to take such a big risk?"

Duan Rong suddenly stopped behind the shabby door of the dormitory. His forehead almost touched the back of the door, but Duan Rong seemed to be unaware of it. He murmured to himself, "Jie Lei, what did you get that made you take such a big risk?"

Duan Rong stood there for a long time without moving. Xie Lei's gloomy face and his back that looked like a clothes rack flashed before Duan Rong's eyes...

"Is it silver?"

Duan Rong immediately shook his head.

Xie Daohan is the chief constable in charge of criminal justice in a county. The profits he makes are so huge that it is definitely not something that an ordinary person can imagine.

Xie Daohan never married and had no children. The next generation of their Xie family only had Xie Lei, the only son. Xie Daohan treated him as his own son and poured almost all his resources into Xie Lei!
Moreover, Xie Lei himself also worked in the government office. After all, Xie Daohan was his nephew, and he gave him a lot of power. Xie Lei himself probably made a lot of money!
He has neither a shortage of money nor a shortage of resources for cultivation!
"What on earth could that be? What could make him take such a big risk?"

Duan Rong's eyes suddenly lit up. "It must be something that can change his fate!"

Duan Rong turned around and continued to pace in the cramped dormitory. Although he himself did not feel it, his steps were getting faster and faster!
"Something that changes your destiny?"

"What is it?"

Duan Rong suddenly stood there, his expression changed. "Change fate? Cultivate talent? Is it the soul technique!?"

"It must be the soul technique!"

"Xu Ruhu has... Taiyi Sect's... spiritual magic!" Duan Rong clenched his fists unconsciously!
A strong mixture of fear and excitement surged in his heart!
It has been several days since I devoured the tree spirit, but there has been no obvious change in my mental strength!

He was still not sure whether this path of devouring the tree spirit would work!
Moreover, the devouring failed and the relevant area of the spiritual consciousness space was saturated. He had not studied it thoroughly what this sentence meant, and only had some preliminary guesses!

In this situation, the clue of the soul technique suddenly appeared in front of him. How could Duan Rong not be tempted?
If the method of devouring the tree spirit is not feasible, the current clue of the soul technique can be regarded as an opportunity for him.

It's just that this opportunity is a bit hot...

Moreover, this opportunity will not wait for him, because once the limelight has passed, Xie Lei will probably transfer Xu Ruhu away.

But... now... he is still not sure whether swallowing the tree spirit... can work?
This incident was like a huge storm. In the eye of the storm at the center were Jie Lei and Xu Ruhu. But outside the storm were Jie Daohan, Taiyi Sect's imperial envoy, Shen Yanliu, and even further outside, the high-level officials of Taiyi Sect would be involved. After all, it was a spiritual art!
None of these beings are people he can afford to offend!

However, since it is an opportunity, it is not just about risks!

There must still be a chance, right? His biggest chance of winning is that he already knows that it was Jie Lei who kidnapped Xu Ruhu and hid Xu Ruhu in his own home!

But, no one knew that he knew!

Although anyone on the outskirts of this huge storm could kill him, but he might not be able to kill the two people in the eye of the storm. Couldn't he give it a try?
As long as he steps into the eye of the storm, it will have nothing to do with the people outside for the time being. It will just be a battle between the three of them in the eye of the storm.

Although Xu Ruhu is not sure, but fighting against Jie Daohan should be at the true Qi realm!
However, he had been locked up in the dungeon for more than a month, and his collarbone was pierced by a heavy torture instrument. He was so seriously injured that he was like a sick tiger!
And Jie Lei is the second level of the Inner Breath Realm! The same realm as him!
Moreover, once Duan Rong stepped into the eye of the storm, he would be able to secretly observe their actions, but they would have no idea of Duan Rong's existence at all!

The first move is on your side!
If you can plan properly, you still have a chance of winning!

Duan Rong sat in front of the bed and used a brush to paint on a piece of paper...

On that piece of paper, he listed every person involved in the incident and used intricate arrows to indicate the relationships between them!

Deducing the various circumstances before and after the incident!

Duan Rong looked at the densely packed words written in tiny calligraphy, the fear still did not disappear from his heart, he was still in a struggle between his conscience and his desires!

Duan Rong's thumb and index finger began to rub repeatedly...

Duan Rong's eyes suddenly hardened, he spread out the paper in front of him and said, "Let's do it! I'm not afraid of anything!"

Duan Rong finally made up his mind because if he backed down and didn't do it, if half a month later, the method of devouring the tree spirit was confirmed to have failed, he would have no room for maneuver!

At that time, he will definitely regret it and twist his thigh!

Because Xu Ruhu might have been transferred to somewhere else by Jie Lei already!

Whatever he wanted to do, it was too late!

Once Duan Rong decided to do it, he began to work out a detailed and thorough plan.

Although a lot of information is uncertain, resulting in the inability to truly deduce the details of many actions, even so, he can first develop a compatible framework and then adjust the fault tolerance based on the actual situation during the action.

Duan Rong kept scribbling and writing, filling up three pages of paper. The action plan was like an upside-down tree, constantly branching out. Every possible situation would lead to a new action plan.

It took Duan Rong nearly two hours to deduce this action plan!

The moment he deduced it, Duan Rong crumpled up the three pages of paper into a ball, poured his internal energy into his palms, clapped his hands together, and directly turned the action plan into dust!
Duan Rong opened the window, threw the paper scraps out, and then closed the window. There were a lot of paper scraps scattered around his bed and on the floor, but Duan Rong's eyes were cold. He just ignored it and pushed the door open and left the dormitory!
The action plan is not for anyone to see, not even for yourself!

Duan Rong simply clarified his ideas by writing an action plan.

Now that the ideas have been clarified, why keep the waste paper?
