Chapter 821 Bluffing
It was for this reason that he just deliberately said that he was not Xuanjizi, and hinted at the origin of destiny to test it.
After he broke through the Spirit Sea Realm that day, he had guessed based on the various abnormalities of the origin of destiny in his body.
He believed that there should be some connection between the origin of destiny, his mysterious metal, and the mysterious woman.
It was because of some unknown connection that the origin of destiny was used by him to help him break through to the Spirit Sea Realm.
If he did not have the mysterious metal, he would not be able to truly refine the origin of destiny even if he got it, and could only suppress the origin of destiny in the sea of qi.
So he speculated that in the underground palace that day, in addition to him and the mysterious woman, Lu Gong, who also got the origin of destiny, should not be able to refine the origin of destiny.
If the Xuanjizi in front of him was really Lu Gong pretending to be him, it would be impossible for him not to react when he heard him hint at the origin of destiny.
Sure enough, the shock that flashed in this person's eyes just now was very telling.
This person... is Lu Gong!
Lu Gong probably captured him not only for the Daolong Fruit, but also for the small part of the destiny origin he got!
"Haha, I think you know what I am talking about!"
"Did you capture me just for the Daolong Fruit?" Duan Qing suppressed the shock in his heart and said calmly.
"A Daolong Fruit? You are so arrogant!"
"Yes, you have a real dragon fruit, so you naturally don't like the Daolong Fruit, which is a first-level thing!" Lu Gong answered irrelevantly and didn't respond to Duan Qing's words at all.
"The real dragon fruit on me doesn't belong to you!" Duan Qing didn't expose Lu Gong, and simply followed Lu Gong's words.
Now the four of them are still alive because Lu Gong pretended to be Xuanjizi and was not exposed.
Once he revealed Lu Gong's true identity, Lu Gong's purpose of framing Xuanjizi would fail, and Lu Gong would definitely kill him to silence him.
He could certainly bluff and threaten Lu Gong with the method of refining the destiny origin to save his life temporarily, but Wu Wen and the other two would not survive!
Hearing Duan Qing admit that the True Dragon Fruit was on him, Lu Gong's eyes lit up.
"Boy, hand over the things!" Lu Gong threatened fiercely.
What he said was not limited to the True Dragon Fruit, but also the Origin of Destiny and the method of refining the Origin of Destiny.
"The things are in my storage device. If you dare to touch a hair of mine, I will immediately destroy the storage device on my body and let the things flow into the space turbulence!"
"If you are confident that you can kill me before I destroy the storage device, then just do it!"
Duan Qing was not afraid of Lu Gong's threats at all, but threatened Lu Gong with destroying the storage device.
If he wanted, he could use the burning power of Suzaku Transformation at any time to melt all the storage devices on his body.
Lu Gong stared at Duan Qing, as if thinking about the possibility of killing Duan Qing in seconds.
True Dragon Fruit, Origin of Destiny, and the method of refining the Origin of Destiny, these three things are all things he can't afford to lose.
Even if he was more than 50% sure that he could kill Duan Qing before he destroyed the storage device, he didn't dare to gamble.
Losing any one of them would be a huge loss.
While Lu Gong was hesitating, Wu Wen and the other two looked at Duan Qing in surprise.
Even Wu Wen, who betrayed Duan Qing, only guessed that the True Dragon Fruit was on Duan Qing and couldn't be sure.
Now Duan Qing said this, which undoubtedly admitted that the True Dragon Fruit was on him.
What surprised the three people even more was that Duan Qing had the True Dragon Fruit as a bargaining chip, and he didn't want to exchange himself to leave, but to use it as a threat to ensure that Xuanjizi didn't attack them!
Among them, Wu Wen, in particular, looked at Duan Qing with a surprised and complicated look, with mixed feelings in his heart.
"Boy, tell me a condition, what do you want to hand over what I want?" After a long silence, Lu Gong finally compromised.
Duan Qing glanced at Wu Wen and the other two: "Let them go first!"
In fact, it's not that he didn't want to threaten Lu Gong to let him go, but he knew that Lu Gong would never agree to let him leave.
He had guessed that Lu Gong was pretending to be Xuanjizi, and Lu Gong knew it very well. In order to ensure that the matter would not be leaked, he would never let him go easily.
Even if he handed over all the three things that Lu Gong wanted, Lu Gong would not let him go. He knew this very well.
What's more, his destiny origin had been absorbed by the mysterious metal, and the method of refining the destiny origin was also related to the mysterious metal.
Considering that it was impossible for him to hand over the mysterious metal to Lu Gong, the only thing he could really use as a bargaining chip with Lu Gong was the real dragon fruit.
This was also the reason why he directly admitted that the real dragon fruit was on him.
As for letting Wu Wen and the other two leave first, it was naturally to let the three of them leave and spread the news of his arrest.
Although Wu Wen's betrayal made him completely disappointed in Wu Wen, he didn't have much good feelings for Tang Tuo and Gongsun Long.
But there was no other way at the moment, he could only think of a way to spread the news as much as possible.
Facing such a powerful person like Lu Gong, he and his men had no chance of winning even if they joined forces.
If he wants to get out, he can only hope to be rescued.
"Haha, you are dreaming!"
"You want me to let the three of them go without any words, do you think I am a three-year-old child!"
As if he saw through Duan Qing's thoughts, Lu Gong flatly rejected Duan Qing's request.
Tang Tuo saw that Lu Gong, who was pretending to be Xuanjizi, did not seem to have the intention of letting them go, and he could not help but get anxious: "Senior Xuan, you just swore a solemn oath and promised to let me go!"
Lu Gong turned his head and glared at Tang Tuo: "My oath only said that I would let you go, but I didn't say when!"
"And I also said later that I would let you go after dealing with the others. Now I haven't finished yet!"
Tang Tuo's mind was blank and his face was ashen.
He really didn't expect that Xuanjizi, as the leader of a sect, would find a loophole in the oath!
Lu Gong retracted his gaze from Tang Tuo and looked at Duan Qing again: "How about this, kid, you hand over the real dragon fruit to me first, and I will let him and the other two leave, how about it?"
What he meant was that he wanted Duan Qing to express his opinion first.
Duan Qing shook his head: "If the senior doesn't let me go, I won't hand over anything!"
Among the three things that Lu Gong wanted, the only thing he could really use as a bargaining chip was the real dragon fruit. If he really handed over the real dragon fruit first, he would have no bargaining chips in his hand!
"Humph, what do you want?" Lu Gong shouted sternly.
"Senior, let him go first, we'll talk about other things later!"
"Anyway, the things are on me, are you afraid that I'll run away?" Duan Qing looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Lu Gong's face was uncertain, and he didn't agree or refuse.
Lu Gong didn't speak, and the others were also silent, not daring to say the first half of the sentence.
For a while, there were only a few people breathing in the closed space, and it was so quiet that it was scary.
