78: Subdue Xu Xu! The opportunity to annihilate the Misty Phoenix Clan!

"Become my slave?"

Su Lie's eyelid twitched, and his heart couldn't help but stir.

If he could really take in a Mist Phoenix Bird.

Not only would he possess a flying mount.

He could also gain more Mist intelligence from Xuxu.

It was simply killing multiple birds with one stone.

Xuxu's eyes darted around, and her consciousness gradually recovered: "Mhm! As long as you believe me, I am your slave right now!"

Her mind became active.

She secretly pondered.

If she could delay until Nanny returned.

Su Lie would surely die!

The only problem now was.

How to keep Su Lie here.

RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

At this moment, violent rumbling sounds came from between heaven and earth.

In the darkness far away, streaks of golden brilliance and black lightning were colliding.

"That is... Nanny really started fighting with the Mountain God!"

Xuxu's heart sank upon seeing it: "Oh no! This battle will last at least seven days and seven nights before they stop! I can't stall for that long!"

"However!"

"If Elder Sister Qiqi could return..."

Thinking of this.

She felt much more at ease.

Su Lie did not know what Xuxu was thinking. He looked at the movement at the edge of the world far away and pushed Xuxu with his hand: "Hurry up and lead the way!"

Xuxu couldn't help but slow her pace.

Buzz!

Seeing that Xuxu was not being compliant, Su Lie slightly retracted the machete in his hand, and the blade once again cut Xuxu's throat.

This time the blade cut into the flesh, touching the throat bone.

Xuxu felt her life draining away, realizing that Su Lie was even more ruthless than she had imagined, and quickly sped up her pace.

Soon.

She led Su Lie to the center of the nest, and when she walked through the treasury door.

Su Lie, who was holding her hostage, followed her inside.

In the blink of an eye.

Su Lie arrived in a treasury filled with all sorts of gold, silver, and jewels.

Su Lie was delighted to see this and said to Xuxu: "Take me to get the god-level items and materials you have collected!"

"Uh... Little Elder Brother! Do you misunderstand something about the treasury?"

Xuxu was stunned and couldn't help but say: "Isn't a treasury meant to hold gold, silver, and jewels?"

"What use are these things to me! I want Mist materials, items, and resources!"

Su Lie was also stunned for a moment. He thought Xuxu was being dishonest and swung the machete again.

The machete cut open Xuxu's windpipe; she could no longer answer with her voice.

Xuxu trembled in fright, her eyes full of Fear. She quickly replied through Spirit: "Little Elder Brother! I really didn't lie!"

"The Mist items and god-tier materials you want are all in Nanny's storage equipment. She distributes these resources based on merit and rank!"

"The treasury of my Mist Phoenix Clan only collects gold, silver, and jewels! These are our most precious food!"

She even swore a Mist oath.

After hearing this, Su Lie hardened his heart: "In that case, I can't keep you alive!"

He did not want Nanny of the Phoenix Bird to know through Xuxu that he had plundered their treasury.

Saying this.

He exerted force again.

The machete swiftly sliced through half of Xuxu's head.

Xuxu froze in place, terrified. She urgently transmitted through Spirit: "Don't kill me! I am willing to offer my True Spirit to become your pet!"

In her haste, a gentle ball of light condensed on her brow.

Inside the ball of light, a Mist Phoenix Bird was nervously looking at Su Lie.

At this moment.

A prompt appeared before Su Lie's eyes.

[Buzz!]

[The Mist Phoenix Bird Xuxu offers her True Spirit to you and swears to the Mist, hoping to become your pet!]

[Do you accept the opponent's surrender?]

"This is... a genuine prompt from the mist rule!"

Only now did Su Lie realize the difference between the rewards he had just received and the current prompt.

Previously, there was only a prompt but no sound.

But now, there was not only a prompt but also a sound.

This sound was upright and peaceful yet carried a chill.

"I had become accustomed to these things and ignored the details!"

Su Lie understood what he had overlooked.

It was precisely because he often received rewards from the mist rule that he overlooked the details of these rewards.

So much so that when he saw a reward prompt, he assumed it was a prompt from the mist rule.

He also thought of.

Earlier.

The Mountain God had also warned him in the same way.

At that time, he had not distinguished between the two.

Now, having suffered a loss, he learned a lesson.

He was now alert!

At the same time.

He also concluded that even if an item similar to the stone of friendship was Strengthened into a red god-tier item.

It was not necessarily something beneficial to him.

It could also be a trap!

Thinking of this.

Su Lie immediately looked at Xuxu, and he solemnly replied: "Yes!"

Buzz!

The next second, Xuxu's True Spirit flew into Su Lie's glabella.

By receiving this True Spirit, Su Lie also received some information about controlling the True Spirit.

Through this True Spirit, he could hear Xuxu's thoughts, discern whether Xuxu was lying, make Xuxu 100% Loyal to him, control her life and death, and engage in ultra-long-distance Mental Communication with Xuxu.

At this moment.

Only then did Su Lie retrieve the machete. While questioning Xuxu, he manipulated the ruyi pouch to collect the gold, silver, and jewels filling the treasury: "Speak! What have you been hiding?"

Xuxu's wound was healing at a visible speed.

She quickly knelt on the ground: "Master! Everything I said just now was true! Only I, Qiqi, and Nanny are left in my clan!"

"There really are only gold, silver, and jewels in the treasury!"

"The rest of the wealth is all in Nanny's storage equipment!"

She spoke earnestly.

Su Lie nodded after hearing this, confirming through Xuxu's True Spirit that these were all true words.

Immediately, he asked again: "Can this nest and treasury be moved away?"

"This is the Shelter of the Mist Phoenix Clan. If it could be moved, we would have left here long ago!"

Xuxu was stunned. She hadn't expected Su Lie's appetite to be so immense that he wanted to steal her home as well.

This made her feel somewhat regretful!

If she had known they were like this, she would have stopped Nanny's plan no matter what.

At this moment.

Su Lie had just finished collecting all the gold, silver, and jewels from the treasury.

The ruyi pouch was completely full.

Only then did Su Lie lead Xuxu out of the treasury.

After the two returned to the outer nest.

Su Lie took out the machete again. He planned to use the Skill Enchantment: Red Flame, using the machete as a match to set this nest ablaze and eliminate the evil in his heart.

This startled Xuxu.

She quickly knelt on the ground: "Master spare me! Master spare me! I am willing to help Master capture Nanny and Qiqi! I know of a poison that restrains our Mist Phoenix Clan!"

"As long as we come into contact with this poison, we will immediately drop dead!"

"This poison is in the Giant Tree Forest!"

After hearing this.

Su Lie's eyes flashed, and he asked curiously: "Since you know it might kill you, why do you keep it?"

"This is a Cold Spring, containing cold poison! Nanny wanted to fill it in, but the cost was too great, so she could only use a hidden item to conceal it! I know where it is!"

Xuxu tremblingly revealed a great secret concerning the survival of her clan.

Su Lie was overjoyed after hearing this: "Good! Good! Good! Quickly take me there! Later, I will set your nest on fire! That will summon the old monster and the little beast back. Then, you will frame the Mountain God for everything and splash the Cold Spring water onto them!"

"After this succeeds!"

"I can spare your life and let you be a pet under my command!"
