Zhou Huaijin was frowning, and he frowned even more deeply when he heard that Xuan Lin had a business deal to discuss with him. He did not trust Xuan Lin at all, let alone enough to talk about a deal with him. Also, Zhou Huaijin did not think that Xuan Lin had anything serious to speak with him about.
Zhou Huaijin did not give any order yet, so Xuan Lin kept staring at Zhou Huaijin as if telling him that he would regret not saying yes.
A while later, Zhou Huaijin waved at Fu Bao and the others.
Fu Bao and others left the room.
Zhou Huaijin still showed no expression, but looked at Xuan Lin with a clear look on his face. "Now we are alone, you can say what you need to."
Xuan Lin smiled and showed a very calm expression. He knew that no matter how unwilling Lord Huai looked, he was still willing to have a talk with him.
It had come to his attention the moment he stepped into the mansion – Lord Huai’s Mansion was definitely much better constructed than that of Lord Ling’s Mansion, which meant that Lord Huai used to be favored by the King. So that proved what he had investigated right – Lord Huai was suddenly disgraced, and that made him very uncomfortable. After all, he used to be the one closest to the
He was confident that what he had offered could not only move the King, but also this man in front of him.

He grew up in the court and knew that what imperial children cared about most of all was whether they were able to get the throne. They tended to be willing to give up everything just for that throne. Therefore Xuan Lin was very confident.
He believed that he was able to get what he wanted most.
He took a sip of the tea calmly and said, "I believe that Lord Huai will definitely be interested in the deal, since your father accepted it without hesitation."
"I have numerous magical monsters, and you should know that those magical monsters are more powerful than human beings. Your father has gotten five from me in exchange for a princess, and I can give you ten of the same magical monsters," Xuan Lin said, sounding generous.
Having said this, he took a look at Zhou Huaijin, who was still expressionless. He did not seem to be that interested in the magical monsters and the power those magical monsters possessed.
Xuan Lin’s face changed. Then he thought that it was only because Lord Huai had not met any magical monsters, thus not being aware of how powerful they were. So he added instantly, "Ten magical monsters are even more powerful than one well-trained troop. If you have ten magical monsters in your hands, then, Lord Huai, it basically means that you are in control of a strong army! Your land is very powerful already, I know, but I attended your banquet yesterday and found that it is not that peaceful inside your country either. You should get hold of those magical monsters, Lord Huai!"
Ten magical monsters were as powerful as one powerful army!
Zhou Huaijin finally showed some expression on his face.
Xuan Lin was telling the truth about this. Fu Bao saw those big animals and they were indeed ferocious. If those animals were available everywhere, then Zhou Huaijin just could not imagine what would happen between the four countries.
However, what he could not understand was why Xuan Lin was trying to reach a deal with him. So he asked curiously, "What do you want from me?"
