"Oh~"

Nailuo Yi responded absent-mindedly. She was holding a high-tech communicator in her hand.

"Sister-in-law, what are you up to again."

After Huangfen saw the communicator in his sister-in-law's hand, he felt something was wrong in his heart.

"Do I need to report to you what I do?"

Nailuo Yi looked at Huangfen. After Huangfen stared at her for a few seconds, he looked away.

Nailuo Yi threw the communicator in her hand onto the table and got up to leave. A holographic projection was mapped on the communicator, which was a document, Su Xiao's document.

"Shadow of Extinction, what kind of profession is this?"

Huangfen flipped through the document. Soon, he noticed a more important piece of information.

In the Xuemen adventure group, Stan, Huangfen, and Nailuo Yi are at the top of the pyramid. Stan is at the core position. He is the core of Xuemen. Important team materials are all with him. Huangfen manages the adventure groups under Xuemen, so he has been staying in the Third Tier, spending a great price to suppress his tier, just to facilitate the management of subordinate adventure groups and recruit potential newcomers.

As for Nailuo Yi, she is the 'eyes' and 'dark blade' of Xuemen. Intelligence, dealing with members who betrayed Xuemen, etc., are all handled by her.

From the perspective of the interest chain, even if Nailuo Yi cuckolded Stan, Stan cannot get rid of her. The Xuemen adventure group was established by these three people, so all three have an inseparable relationship with Xuemen. One move affects the whole body.

The news that Huangfen is about to go to war with Su Xiao soon spread within Xuemen. As the second-in-command of Xuemen, Huangfen certainly has many supporters.

After reading Su Xiao's document, Huangfen sent a message to Stan, but he was surprised to find that Stan was already in the arena.

Stan can only fight in the Fourth Tier Arena, but this doesn't mean he can't watch the Third Tier arena. He came to the arena this time to find the Heifan Chamber of Commerce.

Not only Stan, but some key crew members of Xuemen also found the Heifan Chamber of Commerce, and Nailuo Yi also found them.

The competition will start in an hour. Huangfen is not dragging time. He wants to slaughter the black merchants once. In Huangfen's view, Su Xiao's strength is strong, but most of his killing moves are biased towards close combat. According to Huangfen's estimation, he has a 70% chance of defeating Su Xiao.

The black merchants actually don't favor Su Xiao either. After Stan, Nailuo Yi, and others came to the door, they were forced to open the book. The set odds were: Huangfen 1 to 0.7, Su Xiao 1 to 1.2.

These odds made the people of Xuemen very unhappy, but they forced the Heifan Chamber of Commerce to open the book. Regarding the odds, they couldn't say much. Even a rabbit bites when it's anxious, not to mention the Heifan Chamber of Commerce is not a rabbit.

In the end, Stan bet 800,000 Paradise Coins on Huangfen to win, Nailuo Yi 400,000 Paradise Coins, Huangfen bought 280,000 Paradise Coins for himself, Tieshu 170,000 Paradise Coins, plus the bets of other members of Xuemen, the total number of Paradise Coins exceeded 2 million.

If Huangfen wins, Xuemen makes a profit. If he loses, the loss in Paradise Coins is nothing. The people of Xuemen are not brain-damaged. It's just an arena match. They can't bet the team's important resources on it.

Just after the black merchants accepted the bets from Xuemen, an 'Erha' found them and wanted to place a bet.

Initially, the black merchants refused. Being forced to open the book already made them very unhappy. Now an Erha also wants to bet?

But 5 minutes later, the Heifan Chamber of Commerce agreed to the bet, accepting a bet of 400,000 Paradise Coins + 10 Soul Crystals (Large).

The black merchants know who placed this bet. 400,000 Paradise Coins is nothing to the black merchants, but those 10 Soul Crystals (Large) made the black merchants panic a bit.

If Su Xiao wins, according to the 1 to 1.2 odds, the black merchants would have to take out 480,000 Paradise Coins + 12 Soul Crystals (Large). The Paradise Coins are within the acceptable range, but the Soul Crystals (Large) are unacceptable.

Originally, the black merchants didn't want to accept this bet, but unfortunately, those 10 Soul Crystals (Large) were too tempting. These guys are not saints; they are a group of guys who will do anything for profit.

Arena, in the lounge, Su Xiao has adjusted his state. The competition will start in 17 minutes. At this moment, he received a prompt from the arena.

The content of the prompt is very simple. Huangfen requested that the upcoming competition be set to semi-public mode, and the venue be the Hall of Blazing Sun.

The so-called semi-public mode means it is not open to outsiders. Only those invited by Su Xiao and Huangfen are qualified to watch the battle.

Huangfen's arena ranking is higher than Su Xiao's, so he can prioritize choosing the arena scene and mode, and Su Xiao can modify either one of them.

The scene Huangfen chose is the Hall of Blazing Sun, and the mode is semi-public. Su Xiao can only change one of them.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao chose to change the scene. The scene was changed to the Death Swamp.

The mode and scene of the competition were finalized. In Huangfen's lounge, when he saw the scene of the Death Swamp, his face didn't look very good.

The water vapor in the swamp is very heavy, and there is mud everywhere. He would rather fight on an ice field than fight the enemy here.

But the mode and venue were both proposed by him, and Su Xiao has one modification right. This is the rule of the arena.

Time passed slowly. When there were only ten minutes left before the competition started, the Death Swamp scene was simulated.

This is a swamp with a diameter of half a kilometer. The swamp is very flat. Most locations are dry land. Occasionally, you can see a few mud pits. Compared to these visible mud pits, those hidden swamps are more difficult to deal with.

After the scene was generated, a circle of energy shields appeared around the venue, wrapping the Death Swamp inside. Outside the energy shield was a circle of spectator seats.

Dozens of figures appeared in the spectator seats. These people sat down in the spectator seats in order. The one sitting in the center was of course Stan.

Iron-blooded, cold, strong, this is Stan's first impression on people. The scar on his face is extremely conspicuous. For some reason, Stan has not removed this scar since entering Reincarnation Paradise until now.

Beside Stan was his wife Nailuo Yi, and beside her were team key members like Tieshu and Huiyanqiang.

Tieshu and Huiyanqiang are both key members of Xuemen, ranking below Huangfen. One of them is a Fourth Tier blast tank (Tieshu), and the other is a long-range gunman (Huiyanqiang). It is said that Huiyanqiang once relied on the rifle in his hand to kill a Fourth Tier deputy tank in two shots, with full firepower.

"Boss, that kid is really tenacious. Last time our people didn't get rid of him in the Holy Grail World."

Huiyanqiang leaned on the seat, his expression lazy.

"Don't underestimate him. Developing four attributes at the same time is indeed not very good in the early stage, but once he survives to the Third Tier or above, there is no one easy to deal with."

Nailuo Yi spoke. Huiyanqiang opened his mouth, wanting to answer, but didn't dare to answer. For a time, the spectator seats became quiet.

"How long are you going to throw a tantrum?"

Stan, who had been silent, broke the dead silence.

"I'm throwing a tantrum?"

Nailuo Yi looked at Stan sideways.

"After causing such a shameful thing, don't you have any guilt?"

"Heh."

Nailuo Yi sneered.

"Then you tell me, when you killed my brother, what were you thinking? Where is your guilt?"
