The man glanced at Xu Hao, stood up, and said with a smile, "Dear Mr. Xu, don't get excited. I'm Jefferson, a minor leader from the world's third-largest assassin organization, the Black Shadow Organization. I would like to discuss a business deal with you."

Xu Hao extended his hand, and the chair Jefferson had just been sitting on was immediately summoned to Xu Hao through telekinesis. He sat down and said calmly, "What kind of business? Go ahead, let's see if I'm interested."

Jefferson's expression changed slightly. He had seen Grandmaster experts from Huaya perform telekinesis before, but never as naturally and skillfully as Xu Hao.

Xu Hao didn't choose to directly telekinetically retrieve Anthony. Not to mention that Anthony was shackled to a stone pillar with chains; even if he wasn't, the moment Xu Hao pulled Anthony towards him, these people would undoubtedly open fire without hesitation. If Anthony got shot, things would become complicated.

Therefore, Xu Hao chose to sit down and see what tricks these people intended to play.

Jefferson composed himself and said, "I know that you have two Immortal Bones with you. We're willing to let you name your price. We know you have money, but we're offering a price high enough that you can't refuse! Not a hundred or two hundred billion in Huaya Currency—even thousands of billions, we can afford!"

Upon hearing that Jefferson wanted to buy his Immortal Bones, Xu Hao laughed and said, "Interesting. You're part of an assassin organization, bringing so many people. I thought you'd attack me and take the Immortal Bones by force. I didn't expect you to negotiate first."

Jefferson immediately said with pride, "Although we are an assassin organization, we have principles! We always prefer diplomacy before force. Only when we can't buy something, or the price far exceeds our expectations, do we resort to force."

"Interesting."

Xu Hao smiled slightly, "You have such principles. Should I praise you then?"

"Haha, that's not necessary, as long as you can give us those two Immortal Bones and withdraw from the competition for them. Then, I will release Anthony, and you can leave safely," Jefferson said with a smile. Enjoying the story? Discover more on *.

He felt there was still hope to negotiate with Xu Hao. After all, no matter how rich someone is, they never have too much money.

Exchanging several hundred billions or trillions for an Immortal Bone, such a price is high enough to tempt anyone.

Xu Hao sneered, "You're dreaming. I don't love money. Money, to me, is just a string of numbers. Why would I sell my Immortal Bones for a mere bit of money? Do you take me for a fool?!"

"Mr. Xu, aren't you going to reconsider? You should know, opportunities like this are rare! With your talent, you could reach a higher realm in no time. By then, the Immortal Bones will become trivial, and even if you want to sell them, you won't get a good price," Jefferson advised.

Although his words held disdain for Xu Hao, he had to admit that avoiding a fight with a Grandmaster-level expert would prevent huge losses.

"Do you think I'm as foolish as you are? There's no way I'm selling the Immortal Bones, and I must rescue Anthony. No one can stop me today," Xu Hao stood up from the chair, saying coldly.

Not to mention, he had already discovered some secrets of the Immortal Bones. The stronger the master of the same Immortal Bones, the more powerful the abilities they can unleash.

Moreover, Immortal Bones with the same attributes can be merged and elevated, making their power even stronger.

Such good things can't be exchanged merely for secular money!

Jefferson had grossly underestimated the situation!

However, Xu Hao was also secretly astonished that the Black Shadow Organization, the world's third-largest assassin organization, was also involved, making the situation all the more intriguing.

With the appearance of the Immortal Bones, and in a remote country like Myanmar, all kinds of global powers could step in and get involved.

Thanks to Myanmar's lenient policies and weak power.

Seeing that Xu Hao wouldn't yield no matter what and didn't give him any room to negotiate, Jefferson knew Xu Hao was determined not to sell and was willing to fight to the end.

He said coldly, "Mr. Xu, I know you're powerful, but don't forget that I'm confident enough to be speaking with you here! You're here to rescue Anthony, right? But if you can't save him, how will you face your girlfriend Anna? She might hate you for it, wouldn't she?"

Xu Hao gave him a cold stare and said, "You don't need to threaten me. With the people you brought today, you're nowhere near capable of doing anything to me."

Even though Jefferson had mastery at the Great Perfection level, he was insignificant in front of Xu Hao, who could easily kill him with a single move.
