Li Shen did not answer the question, but continued on his own:

"I'll pay off the thousand spirit stones for her, on the condition that you let my friend leave first, hand over the spirit contract to me, and promise not to harass her again in the future."

Upon hearing this, Liu Rou's heart tightened. Although she had learned from Lin Xiaoxiao that Li Shen was a guest talisman master, it had not been long since then.

Cultivation requires spirit stones everywhere, so how could I ask him to help me pay back this thousand!

Liu Rou was about to refuse when she met Li Shen's suggestive look, so she had no choice but to swallow her words.

"Fellow Daoist, I just calculated it again carefully, and the spirit stones, including interest, should amount to 1,200."

The scarred man's words were clearly intended to provoke a confrontation.

Li Shen, with an expression that showed he didn't care about spirit stones, simply uttered two words:

"Can."

Seeing how generous the other party was, the four of them were taken aback, and then they began to secretly plot in secret.

"Boss, looks like we've met a romantic. How about we take this opportunity to squeeze some more money out of him?"

The monk with the pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks made the suggestion.

The other two agreed, since they outnumbered the other side and weren't afraid of things turning sour.

The scarred man hesitated for a moment, then asked in a cold voice:

"Release her first. What if you have some special magic and manage to escape with her?"

"How about I come and replace her?"

Li Shen quickly provided a solution.

The four discussed the matter telepathically. After a moment, the scarred man nodded and instructed the weasel-faced cultivator:

"Take the person over there, be careful."

After saying that, the scarred man took out a light gold talisman and held it between his fingers. As long as Li Shen made any move, this first-tier sword talisman in his hand would be released instantly.

The other two took out their magical artifacts and stared intently at Li Shen.

The sharp-mouthed monk in charge of escorting her held a dark red dagger against Liu Rou's throat, advancing step by step.

Li Shen made no unnecessary movements and walked directly into the obvious encirclement of the three.

run?

He never intended to.

Seeing Li Shen surrounded by his accomplices, the sharp-mouthed cultivator grinned maliciously and shoved Liu Rou forward.

"You bitch, get out of here."

After saying that, the sharp-mouthed monk turned around and completed the last piece of the puzzle in the encirclement.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, you should go back first. I'll be back in a bit."

Li Shen looked up and said in a calm and even voice.

"Can……"

Liu Rou's face was filled with complex emotions. She hadn't moved an inch, and had just uttered a single word when Li Shen interrupted her loudly:

"Fellow Daoist Liu, rest assured, these four fellow Daoists do not seem to be untrustworthy people, I believe they will not make things difficult for me."

Seeing Li Shen's calm expression, Liu Rou bit her lip and turned to leave.

"Fellow Daoist Li, please be careful."

These words were transmitted by Liu Rou before she left.

Li Shen was stunned upon hearing this, and suddenly felt as if he were still communicating with cavemen.

He immediately decided that once this matter was resolved, he would find an opportunity to learn the art of telepathy.

Returning to the present moment, Li Shen's eyes turned cold again.

"Fellow Daoists, let's continue our discussion about spirit stones."

After saying that, Li Shen pointed to the spirit contract in the scarred man's hand.

The scarred man paused for a moment, then suggested:

"I greatly admire your willingness to help your friend out of this predicament. How about this: if you are willing to join my Wild Wolf Gang, this debt can be reduced by half?"

"Oh?"

Li Shen let out a soft question, raised an eyebrow slightly, then breathed a sigh of relief, scratched his head, and chuckled:

"That's fine. To be honest, it's a bit difficult to pay back 1,200 spirit stones. I knew you four fellow cultivators didn't seem like the type to make things difficult for others. Lead the way."

The scarred man's eyes darted around, and his expression softened slightly.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed sensible. Our Wild Wolf Gang is in dire need of a loyal and righteous person like you."

Even so, Li Shen was still deliberately surrounded by the four men. Apart from the scarred man, the other three men never put away their magical artifacts.

On the way, the scarred man asked Li Shen his name, and Li Shen answered truthfully.

There's nothing to hide about the corpse.

Then Li Shen asked the other person's name and status in the Wild Wolf Gang.

The cultivator standing to his left quickly chimed in, beaming with pride:

"My boss, Liu Poshan, is the second-in-command of the Wild Wolf Gang. Kid, you're lucky to have joined our Wild Wolf Gang. You're in for a treat from now on."

Li Shen showed a slight look of surprise on his face, and immediately cupped his hands and said:

"So you're the second-in-command. My apologies for not recognizing you sooner. In that case, it's just my good fortune."

Liu Poshan listened to this and couldn't help but feel a pang of regret for the talent, but it was quickly overwhelmed by murderous intent.

Between a fat sheep and a henchman, he wanted the fat sheep more.

So the group left the outer city of the market and came to the outskirts. After walking a long way, they stopped in a deserted and desolate area.

"Why aren't you leaving?"

As soon as Li Shen finished speaking, he sensed killing intent surging from all directions.

Why did the performance stop here?

He scoffed inwardly.

Liu Poshan slowly said:

"Fellow Daoist Li, since you intend to join the Wild Wolf Gang, my three brothers have been following me for a long time and are considered your seniors. This time, we have saved you a lot of spirit stones, so why not share some with them so that we can take care of you in the future?"

Li Shen paused for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening. He quickly took out a bag and handed it to Liu Poshan, smiling as he said:

"Thank you for the advice, Second Master. Please help me divide up the spirit stones in this bag."

After saying this, Liu Poshan frowned, probed the contents with his spiritual energy, and found only five spirit stones. He immediately flew into a rage:

"You dare to play me!"

"Sorry, I have too many spirit stones, I'm too lazy to count them!"

Li Shen snorted coldly, then summoned a palm-sized, buzzing swarm of insects. With a thought, the swarm exploded and spread in all directions.

"What is that?!"

The four people fled in panic.

A flash of inspiration appeared at Li Shen's fingertips. At the same time, he summoned a golden shield talisman to protect himself, and a small black banner appeared in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, a gray shadow slowly emerged from it, gradually growing larger until it completely blocked out the moonlight and filled in the darkness.

A terrifying aura swept over us.

Apart from Liu Poshan, the other three Wild Wolf Gang cultivators were so frightened that they couldn't think straight.

Liu Poshan immediately regretted his actions. Knowing he was no match for Liu, he prepared to flee.

But Li Shen had no intention of giving him that chance.

He released the seven-colored python, giving a mother and daughter the opportunity to perform together.

Five jet-black throwing knives sliced ​​through the night and attacked Liu Poshan with a thought.

Liu Poshan immediately summoned a black shield magic weapon to defend himself, while simultaneously using a golden talisman.

The talisman transformed into four or five small golden swords that collided directly with the black flying knife, producing a crisp sound of metal clashing.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Shen used the Yin Soul Escape technique to quickly close the distance.

He took out a large, ghost-headed sword, and with a sudden burst of strength, hurled it out.

The broadsword spun in the air and struck Liu Poshan's shield squarely.

The shield was undamaged. Just as Liu Poshan was secretly pleased and wanted to take the opportunity to escape, Li Shen had already used the Wind Shadow Step to arrive behind him a step ahead.

In an instant, Liu Poshan felt a chill between his brows, as if a cold wind had passed through him, and the world seemed to turn upside down.

The other three were also captured by the Soul Slave, the Seven-Colored Python, and the Soul-Devouring Ant.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the wilderness returned to silence, with only the night breeze blowing gently.
