Gu Qijue is very interested in E-Tier Energy Stones.

Energy is a hard currency at any time.

Not to mention E-Tier Energy Stones, even some top-tier F-Tier Energy Ores, or a large quantity of regular F-Tier Energy Ores, he has an interest.

An Ning seeking cooperation with Gu Qijue is the right choice.

Others may have thoughts about E-Tier Energy Stones, but most wouldn't dare to snatch food from the mouth of the Blood River Mercenary Corps.

Gu Qijue is different; he has always been a bold guy.

Not only dare to snatch food, but he also dares to pull teeth from the tiger's mouth.

An Ning was a bit nervous at the moment.

She was worried that Gu Qijue would sell her out, which would be trouble.

But her worries were obviously unnecessary.

Gu Qijue quickly transmitted via Spiritual Power: "Tell me about the specific situation of the E-Tier Energy Ore."

An Ning hesitated slightly at the words but quickly replied:

"I saw two Energy Ore Veins, both of E-Tier."

"But during my reconnaissance, the Blood River Mercenary Corps noticed my presence."

"So now they're intercepting us here while they speed up the mining of the E-Tier Energy Ore."

"The approximate coordinates of those two Energy Ores are..."

An Ning spoke sincerely, succinctly describing the Energy Ore's specific situation to Gu Qijue.

Gu Qijue was already interested in the Energy Ore, so after An Ning finished, he suggested an idea.

"Let's negotiate directly with the Blood River Mercenary Corps, have them give us fifty percent of the benefits, then I'll take forty percent, and you'll take ten percent."

An Ning nearly fainted hearing Gu Qijue's suggestion.

Not because Gu Qijue gave her only ten percent of the benefits, but because he actually wanted to share the cake with the Blood River Mercenary Corps.

It's obvious that the Blood River Mercenary Corps wouldn't share their interests.

What's even more despairing for An Ning happened right then.

Gu Qijue actually stepped out and started communicating with the mercenaries of the Blood River Mercenary Corps.

The mercenaries of the Blood River Mercenary Corps were only wondering if their ears had a problem.

Because Gu Qijue said, "I want fifty percent of the benefits from your sealed area."

Bai Beifeng heard this and seriously glared at Gu Qijue for a few moments.

He wanted to determine whether Gu Qijue was teasing him or had gone mad.

After all, Gu Qijue's behavior was no different from going to the Imperial Bank and saying he wants half of the money in the vault.

However, Bai Beifeng, after a moment of thought, nodded and said, "Alright, come with me."

Someone had seen the situation in the sealed area earlier, though he wasn't sure if that person was Gu Qijue, yet Gu Qijue was clearly suspicious.

Dealing with Gu Qijue was no trouble.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Gu Qijue left with Bai Beifeng.

However, everyone understands that the Blood River Mercenary Corps is not easy to deal with.

After Gu Qijue left with Bai Beifeng, he certainly faced trouble.

In the crowd, An Ning was a bit anxious.

She was worried that once the Blood River Mercenary Corps tortured Gu Qijue, he wouldn't withstand the pressure and sell her out.

She now only had three options left.

Either gamble that Gu Qijue would not betray her.

Or seek other partners to escape together.

Or go all the way in and see what Gu Qijue is really up to.

According to her observations, Gu Qijue was undoubtedly a sane person.

Moreover, Gu Qijue's expression was somewhat playful when he was talking to Bai Beifeng.

It was as if he was completely unbothered by Bai Beifeng, having full confidence.

There's only one possibility: Gu Qijue is a deep and unfathomable master, not taking the Blood River Mercenary Corps seriously.

If that were the case, all of Gu Qijue's bizarre behavior would make sense.

Because he was teasing others from beginning to end, seeming a bit abnormal.

This all sounds complex, but An Ning sorted out these logics within three or four breaths.

So now what she needs to do is make the final decision!

She decided to gamble that Gu Qijue is a master who can handle the Blood River Mercenary Corps.

The reason for not gambling on the other two options is, of course, because even if she wins, there's no extra benefit.

Also, she had a special life-saving card; even if the gamble failed, her life would not be in danger.

However, the treasure would be consumed, leaving her with one less significant guarantee for future actions.

Thinking of this, before Gu Qijue completely walked away, An Ning stepped out and said:

"I'm his accomplice; I want to go with him for the benefits."

Bai Beifeng and Gu Qijue had not walked far.

So Bai Beifeng showed deep confusion and perplexity.

He really didn't understand what Gu Qijue and An Ning were thinking.

After all, the Blood River Mercenary Corps had a notorious reputation.

No matter what Gu Qijue and An Ning wanted, under Blood River Mercenary Corps's territory, their life and death were under absolute control.

Gu Qijue showed a look of interest.

An Ning's judgment was correct.

He followed Bai Beifeng, intending to make a big move.

It's just unexpected that An Ning actually dared to follow.

There are two possibilities: one is An Ning isn't a very smart woman.

The other is An Ning is a remarkably clever woman.

The other party caught clues to discern his reality and intentions.

The real situation remains unknown.

While Gu Qijue was musing over these matters, An Ning was already brought along.

Seeing Gu Qijue's relaxed and casual expression made An Ning more convinced her judgment was correct.

Though not knowing who Gu Qijue was, he was undoubtedly a master.

More likely, Gu Qijue was a master with a great reputation, otherwise, he wouldn't need to disguise.

Bai Beifeng didn't realize that he was bringing a King Yama back to camp.

Comfortably, he brought Gu Qijue and An Ning back to camp and reported to the leader, He Xue.

He Xue was the party leader of Blood River Mercenary Corps, a powerful entity at the Peak of F Tier.

Years ago, he reversed his name and then founded the renowned Blood River Mercenary Corps.

He Xue had a very burly figure, standing with a majestic presence.

His weapon was quite distinctive, being a Double-Headed Wolf Fang Club.

He came to Gu Qijue and An Ning and asked, "You want fifty percent of the benefits?"

An Ning didn't dare respond, but Gu Qijue casually said, "Yes, we want fifty percent."

He Xue heard this and chuckled, replying, "Do you know what benefits are here?"

Gu Qijue continued to speak casually, "There are two E-Tier Energy Ore Veins here."

Upon hearing this response, He Xue stopped laughing, and his face became stern.
