He could only tremblingly pull out a Storage Pouch from his bosom, place it on the table, and push it towards Su Bai.
"Inside are the matters our boss wishes to discuss with you. Please give us a response."
After pushing the Storage Pouch towards Su Bai,
he sat up rigidly, awaiting Su Bai's reply, as if also awaiting the arrival of death.
After Su Bai rinsed her mouth with tea,
she glanced at the Storage Pouch.
After confirming there were no Restrictions on it,
she then extended her Divine Sense into it.
Then she paused.
What first caught her eye were two piles of Spirit Stones.
One pile was Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and the other was Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
Three thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones and five hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
What a grand gesture.
Then there was a Jade Slip containing information.
It was the message Shan Xiao wanted to convey to Su Bai.
The general meaning was:
He hoped Su Bai would accept these Spirit Stones, and that in the future, both parties should try not to meet.
Even if they did meet, he hoped she would hold back appropriately, so there would be a chance for future cooperation.
After retracting her Divine Sense,
Su Bai looked at the person opposite her.
The person opposite was already nervously wiping cold sweat from his forehead.
In his heart, he had prayed to every powerful being he could think of.
Su Bai looked at the other party, her eyes already filled with Killing Intent, and spoke coldly:
"These are only enough to buy your life."
"Just for daring to follow me today, and even sitting in front of me, in my eyes, you are already a dead man."
"Get lost."
After Su Bai softly uttered these words,
especially after hearing Su Bai tell him to get lost,
he felt as if he had received a great pardon, so nervous that he limped a little as he walked.
He hurriedly ran downstairs.
Su Bai, meanwhile, directly tucked the Storage Pouch from the table into her waist, then paid the bill and left.
She then went to the Patrol Team as usual, and began patrolling with her team members.
As for the Cultivator from Night Shan Xiao, after leaving the market,
he returned directly to his lair.
He described Su Bai's behavior in the restaurant earlier to Shan Xiao.
"Boss, the other party accepted the Storage Pouch, but her attitude seemed..."
"This Old Man naturally knows, this Su Bai is a bit troublesome."
Shan Xiao tilted his head and twisted his neck.
Su Bai accepted the Spirit Stones, but her attitude remained ambiguous.
She let his subordinate go, but she took the Spirit Stones.
This indicated that Su Bai was not a pedantic person and could be reasoned with.
However, Su Bai's Killing Intent was also real.
"Hmph ~ But accepting the Spirit Stones means there's still room for negotiation. It just means she has a bigger appetite, and this Old Man has seen it before."
Shan Xiao had Cultivated for decades, acting as an enforcer for many families as a robber cultivators; he had seen all kinds of people.
Su Bai's identity had naturally been investigated and clarified over a few months.
She came from a Spiritual Farmer background, was a Loose Cultivator in Purple Bamboo Immortal Market, and later came to Ebony Island with Xu Changge.
Although she rarely moved around outside,
judging from the limited number of times she had fought, her actual combat ability was not low.
"Next time, this Old Man will go personally to talk."
Shan Xiao thought about Su Bai's words again.
He felt that Su Bai probably thought he was looking down on her by only sending a small minion.
Hence her anger.
So next time, Shan Xiao himself would go.
As for danger, Shan Xiao was naturally not afraid. He was at Qi Refining Peak, and had attempted to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment in his early years. Although he failed, his strength was not comparable to that of an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator.
Even facing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he was confident he could exchange a few moves.
While Shan Xiao was thinking about opening a channel with Su Bai, the manager of the Patrol Team, to facilitate their future actions,
Su Bai, after completing her patrol mission, did not return to her Danfu Pavilion.
Instead, she went directly to find Xu Changge.
