Purgatory Artist-Chapter 192: The Evil God’s Deal

The voice went silent.

After a while, it spoke in annoyance: 「No, I'd rather kill that human and take his soul than give you the 'Flawless Dragon's Spine'.」

Liu Ping laughed and shook his head: "Let us be honest with each other, what are your concerns?"

The voice didn't answer.

Liu Ping continued: "Then let me guess, first of all, you've been emphasizing the importance of souls, so what you need is souls."

「Go on.」 the voice said.

"Secondly, you don't want to see our God gain a powerful dragon helper, after all, in Evernight, no one would want someone who knows about their existence to become strong." Liu Ping said.

The voice praised: 「What a clever fellow, no wonder your God sent you here to make a secret deal.」

"Are there any other reasons?" Liu Ping asked.

「That's about it, I don't want your God to become too powerful, after all, our relationship is only temporary, no one knows what it will do in the future.」 the voice spoke with a bit of caution.

Liu Ping laughed and said: "I can help you resolve this concern."

「You? Resolve it? 」the voice asked.

"People often say that when you and your business partner achieve a win-win situation, it will increase your trust in each other." Liu Ping said.

「What do you mean?」 the voice asked.

"I'll make a bold guess, souls are very important to you, if you can obtain souls, it will help you gain even more power." Liu Ping said.

「Of course!」 the voice said.

"And our God wants to obtain the loyalty of a dragon, I don't want to hide this from you, since you've already guessed it." Liu Ping said.

「That's right, although the 'Flawless Dragon's Spine' is precious, only dragons can use it, your God definitely only has one use for it.」 the voice said.

Liu Ping clapped his hands and said: "Done."

「What do you mean?」 the voice asked.

Liu Ping said: "Other than the treasures from before, I'll also pay you some souls to offset your concerns."

That voice let out a few heavy panting sounds as it impatiently said, 「Souls, I'll get souls, and your God will get the 'Flawless Dragon's Spine'?」

"Exactly, this is a perfect win-win situation!" Liu Ping said.

He turned around and glanced at each of the Evil God's believers.

One, two, three ...

There were fifteen of them in total.

Fifteen souls.

「Then, how many souls is your master willing to pay?」 the voice asked.

"Four." Liu Ping said.

「No! The power gained from devouring four souls is nothing compared to your master gaining the loyalty of a dragon! That's not fair!」The voice said.

"How many do you want?" Liu Ping asked.

"Thirteen! At least thirteen of them! "the voice said.

Liu Ping looked troubled. He paced back and forth in the snow as if he was deep in thought.

After a while.

The voice couldn't help but say,「Listen, if your master really wants the 'Flawless Dragon Spine', he will have to give me thirteen souls! I only want souls. I don't want anything else! 」

Liu Ping suddenly stopped in his tracks and said, "You may have noticed that my master has prepared a total of 15 souls for this transaction. I am his representative and I am here to complete this transaction with you."

The voice said, 「I can see that you have a total of 15 souls behind you.」

"Listen," Liu Ping interrupted it and said, "If you choose the souls, I can give you all 15 souls. However, you have to return me 50% of the treasures that I paid just now!"

The voice shouted, 「50%! You cunning fellow, why don't you just rob me! 」

Liu Ping shouted, "You said that you would rather have the souls!"

The voice suddenly raised its voice and said, 「But that is a huge fortune. You can't just ask for 50% of it!」

"Forty-five percent! I will only take back 45%. The remaining 55% and 15 souls will be exchanged for a 'Flawless Dragon Spine'! "Liu Ping said.

「At most, I will give you 30%!」 The voice said.

"40%!" Liu Ping said.

「35%!」 The voice insisted.

"40%. If you don't agree, then forget it. I will bring all these souls back. We can find other people to buy the Dragon Spine!" Liu Ping turned around and was about to leave.

「Deal! Don't go. 40%, 40%! 」The voice shouted behind him.

Only then did Liu Ping stop.

"How do you want to collect the souls?" He asked.

「Just place them on my Runic Magic Circle.」 the voice said.

Liu Ping casually threw out a card.

Bang!

Andrea appeared quietly and said softly, "Down!"

An inexplicable aura was emitted from her body.

The 15 believers instantly felt their limbs go numb. They felt dizzy and collapsed on the ground.

Dragon's Aura!

As a Level 40 Dragon, her strength was 10 levels higher than the Demon King Zhao Chanyi. How could these believers resist her?

Andrea waved her hand.

The believers were unable to fight back and were directly placed on the Runic Magic Circle.

The voice suddenly said, 「Aren't you afraid that I will take away these souls and not give you the 'Flawless Dragon Spine'?」

Liu Ping looked relaxed and smiled. "Our God is about to take over an entire human empire. When that time comes, we will have as many souls as we want. I guess ..."

"Between you and us, there will be more opportunities for cooperation. There is also a wider range of common interests. There is no need to ruin the huge business in the future for just 15 souls."

"Or ..."

His voice became playful. "The only thought in your mind is to wage war against my God and offend this Dragon beside me who is destined to reach the peak?"

As soon as he said that.

Andrea looked at the rhombus-shaped Runic Magic Circle and softly said, "I can roughly sense the energy waves from its body ..."

She didn't continue.

Liu Ping gave her a look of approval.

Of course, even if it ran away, he didn't lose anything. He even killed 15 Evil God believers and stopped their assassination attempt.

But if he could find a 'Flawless Dragon Spine' for Andrea, why not?

The voice went silent for a few moments.

「Young man, what is your name?」 it asked.

"Qian Zhouwen. I have a younger brother called Qian Wuzhou. We work together for our Lord." Liu Ping said.

「You don't seem to care about the fate of your companions at all?」 it probed.

"I am only loyal to my God. They are the same. So offering their souls to for our Lord is their fate. I guess they are all happy about it." Liu Ping spoke with a gentle tone as if he was talking about something that was only natural.

The voice went silent again for a few moments before continuing: 「I used to think that evil creatures were more cruel than humans, but from now on, I think that humans are crazier than evil creatures.」

"Thank you for your praise. I'm only working for my Lord, this isn't much at all." Liu Ping replied.

The voice sighed: 「Seems like I'll have to be like the Nine-Winged Fallen God and find a few subordinates like you to work for me. I look forward to working with you in the future.」

A flash of light appeared from the rhombus-shaped Runic Magic Circle.

A Card appeared out of thin air in front of Liu Ping's eyes.

The Card depicted a crystal-clear long spine. It was extremely large and was submerged in a deep blue sea.

Liu Ping received the Card.

Lines of blazing words quickly appeared:

[Flawless Dragon Spine]

[This is a one-in-a-million dragon's spine. Only the purest and noblest dragons would leave behind such a dragon's spine when their souls dissipated. It proves that the entire process of its existence was noble and flawless.]

[The Divine Artifact of the Dragon race]

I got it!

Liu Ping kept his breathing steady. Just as he was about to put the card away, he saw another card flying towards him.

This card was filled with all sorts of treasures.

It was the wealth that the 15 believers brought with them.

In exchange for this entity's help once.

But now, that help no longer existed. Instead, it was a flawless Dragon Spine and 40% of it.

「This is 40% of the items from before. I've already given you the Dragon Spine and the treasures, do we have a deal?」 the voice asked.

"Deal." Liu Ping nodded.

In an instant, the 15 Evil God believers all howled in pain.

Their bodies turned into shadows, frantically trying to dodge, but they couldn't escape from the rhombus-shaped Runic Magic Circle no matter what.

From inside the Runic Magic Circle, a giant tongue full of vertical pupils reached out. With a light lick, all the souls were glued to the surface of the tongue.

No matter how much the souls struggled, they couldn't escape from the tongue.

The vertical pupils on the tongue began to move, evaluating Liu Ping.

Liu Ping smiled warmly and nodded at the vertical pupils.

Judging from his expression, it was as if he was enjoying an elegant and wonderful performance.

Under his gaze.

The giant tongue slowly retracted back into the Runic Magic Circle.

w.

Until the other party disappeared, Liu Ping kept the two Cards and bowed towards the Runic Magic Circle.

"It's a pleasure to work with you. I hope that you and my Lord can work together to create a glorious career."

「Go, I look forward to you taking down that human empire. I wish you all the best.」 the voice said.

"Thank you for your blessings. I'll bring your blessings to my Lord." Liu Ping bowed again.

He pulled the white cloth that covered the Runic Magic Circle over and covered it again.

Snowflakes continued to fall.

The snow covered the sky, the north wind roared, creating a pure white landscape.

Everything was covered by the snow. It was as if the deal that happened just now never happened.

Liu Ping brought Andrea out of the leeward forest.
