The reason why Qin Cheng asked Xiong Qingyu to cooperate was that he had his own plan and needed the other party's help to realize it.

On the other hand, it was also because Qin Cheng knew Xiong Qingyu.

The opponent is very talented and powerful, but has an arrogant personality, is not afraid of the majesty of the strong, and is even a bit rebellious.

If he threatened to deal with the old man, someone else might immediately change his attitude and chase him away, but facing Xiong Qingyu instead would arouse his interest and he would definitely not reject him immediately.

Of course, being able to arouse the other party's interest and convincing the other party are completely different things.

Next, Qin Cheng wants to recruit the other party to join the gang, and also gives Xiong Qingyu a reason that he can't refuse.

"Okay, then let's have a heart-to-heart talk."

Xiong Qingyu groaned in displeasure at being guessed by Qin Cheng again.

"Do you know what will happen to us if we fail to deal with that old man?"

"Of course we know that we may be like the Jiao Clan monks and have no chance to participate in it." Qin Cheng said.

"Then you still want to take the risk?"

"Because this is the only way." Qin Cheng said straightforwardly.

"The princess thinks that if we follow the old man's rules, how many chances will we have to leave the city? Or how many chances will the monks here have?"

"How many?"

"The answer is zero! This road is completely unfeasible." Qin Cheng said.

Seeing Qin Cheng's vow, Xiong Qingyu frowned.

When everyone was desperately looking for a way in the ancient city, Qin Cheng said that this road was a dead end and would have no results at all?

Where did Qin Cheng get his confidence?

"Tell me about it."

Xiong Qingyu's appetite was a little whetted.

"It's actually very simple. There's no need to speculate. Looking at it in the past two days, even the prince of the Jiao clan feels desperate. He would rather try to use force than continue to search. This is very illustrative of the problem."

Seeing Xiong Qingyu's curiosity aroused, Qin Cheng smiled.

"Because when searching for something, there are always some clues, but in the past two days, no matter what the monk came up with, he got the same curses. The old man did not provide any valuable information, so everyone was confused.

There is no direction."

"There is no direction, which means there is no path. But this is second to none. After all, as long as you hit it too many times, you can still get it out."

"But the biggest problem is that only 30 people can participate in the attempt every day, and they take turns to obtain qualifications. There are already hundreds of people here. How long does it take to take a round?"

"Even if you have a clue, it will take seven or eight days before your next attempt. However, two ancient cities have already been opened, which proves that the assessment time Xingzun left for me is not that long at all."

Hearing this, Xiong Qingyu narrowed his eyes.

"Your words are too absolute. What the old man said is destiny. Are you convinced that no one has this destiny? You can find the only correct one from thousands of options?"

"Daoyuan? What was the road boundary chosen that day?" Qin Cheng asked back.

"Of course he is the heir." Xiong Qingyu said subconsciously.

"This is the biggest problem." Qin Cheng said with twinkling eyes.

"The person Xingzun chooses here is his successor. He chooses the best one from among countless geniuses!"

"As a follower of the Star Lord, this old man chose a monk with whom he has a predestined relationship. If predestined relationship can represent everything, don't you think this is putting the cart before the horse and is too weird?"

Xiong Qingyu's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. Qin Cheng's words seemed to have opened up some acupoints. She suddenly found the reason for some things that she thought were weird before.

Indeed, whether it is this weird ancient city or that weird old man.

The purpose of the existence of these people and the earth is to select the successor of Venerable Xinghe.

But now, the old man's test is to choose someone with whom he is destined. If fate can determine the inheritance, then why should they come to the test.

Especially when Xingzun said before that the next step is a competition of strength.

This is indeed a bit strange.

"Even if what you say does make sense, it's just another guess." After a moment of silence, Xiong Qingyu said.

Although everything is a bit strange, who knows if there is a reason that they don't know.

"But now, I really want to know your plan."

Qin Cheng also smiled slightly.

He knew that it was impossible to persuade Xiong Qingyu based on speculation.

If the other party is easily persuaded and has no ideas of his own, it is impossible for him to become the heir to the Bear King.

The key is to look at the plan.

Next, Qin Cheng discussed his thoughts with Xiong Qingyu.

"With this plan of yours, I am the first person to be in danger. If it fails, our Bear Clan will suffer even greater losses."

But after finishing speaking, Xiong Qingyu's expression flickered for a few times. Instead of getting excited, he was a little disappointed and frowned.

"Even if it really succeeds, what you said may not come true. I, the Bear Clan, may take risks to participate, but it will be in vain."

"Since we have a heart-to-heart relationship, to be honest, I don't want to participate in this plan," Xiong Qingyu finally said.

It's not that there is anything wrong with the Qincheng plan, but that the old man once promised that the winning side can leave the city, but this is the biggest problem with the cooperation between the two parties.

It may happen that although the plan is successful, Qin Cheng takes all the benefits and gains nothing for himself.

If the plan fails, you will definitely be unlucky.

"You're right." Qin Cheng said bluntly.

"This is not a fair sale. Therefore, I can give this thing to you."

With a wave of his hand, Qin Cheng placed a scroll on the table.

"This is the leather scroll I gave you before." Xiong Qingyu raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, considering that the Bear Clan may suffer losses, as long as you decide to participate, I can give this scroll to you. If my plan fails, both of us will be punished, but you can harvest the scroll." Qin Cheng said.

"If it succeeds and you don't get what you want, in addition to this scroll, we will have one for each of the two little statues."

"In other words, if you take out the scroll, I will gain something whether I win or lose."

Xiong Qingyu's expression changed.

If you win the bet, you can get the statuette, the scroll, and one of the opportunities to leave the city. If you lose the bet, you can at least get the scroll back.

Although the purpose of the leather scroll is not clear yet, Xiong Qingyu understands that this item will definitely come in handy.

This was a sure-profit deal, and Qin Cheng's previous speculation about the rules also made her a little tempted.

"That's right, eldest princess, it's very late, I need to know your choice now." Qin Cheng said.

Xiong Qingyu stared at the scroll and tapped the table with his slender fingers.

"You have already taken out this thing, I think I have no reason to refuse."

After a moment, Xiong Qingyu raised his head and met Qin Cheng's eyes, smiling slightly.

"Elder Princess, your choice is correct." Qin Cheng also smiled.

With Xiong Qingyu joining in, his plan will be complete.
