“What?”
Everyone present looked at Ye Yunfei in astonishment.
Someone actually dared to provoke Gan Hao so openly!
“Now there will be a show to watch,” someone couldn't help but whisper.
“Well? Do you sell or not? What’s the total price?” Ye Yunfei asked again.
“This young master...” The young woman looked at Ye Yunfei, momentarily at a loss for words.
Of course, she was extremely willing to sell, but with Gan Hao right here, it would be hard to complete the transaction.
“Kid, are you looking for death!” Gan Hao flew into a rage.
All along, relying on the influence of the Eastern Barrens Gan Family and the fearsome reputation of his elder brother, Gan Hui, he had been able to move through the Eastern Barrens quite freely.
Most powers and martial artists, once they heard his origins, wouldn’t dare to provoke him.
“Young man, what is your background?” The old man’s face darkened. He fixed a stern gaze on Ye Yunfei and demanded an answer.
He wanted to clarify Ye Yunfei’s origins first.
“I come from a minor kingdom. I don’t have any noteworthy background,” Ye Yunfei replied indifferently.
No noteworthy background?
To have no background yet dare to provoke Gan Hao—wasn’t that seeking death?
The crowd around them wore strange expressions upon hearing Ye Yunfei’s words.
“Hah, so it’s a lowlife who doesn’t know his own insignificance. Kill him directly!” Gan Hao barked.
“Heh heh, an ant-like creature dares to challenge our Gan Family. Kid, remember in your next life—there are existences in this world you cannot afford to provoke,” the old man sneered, taking a step forward and releasing his energy pressure.
Rumble...
Tidal waves of Spiritual Power surged towards Ye Yunfei with violent force.
This was an expert of the early-stage Heavenly Sea Realm!
The spectators at the side were frightened and retreated one after another.
Whizz, whizz…
Ye Yunfei directly unleashed the Puppet Soul Thread Secret Art. Ten Soul Threads shot forth, instantly piercing into the old man’s soul sea, winding towards his Soul Body.
“How is this possible!”
At that moment, the old man’s Soul Body felt an intense threat, and his head instantly erupted in severe pain. Shocked and furious, he staggered back repeatedly.
The strength of Ye Yunfei’s Soul Power already surpassed that of most Heavenly Sea Realm experts. Now, utilizing the Puppet Soul Thread Secret Art—which doubled its power—dealing with an early-stage Heavenly Sea Realm expert was naturally quite easy.
What’s going on?
The onlookers found the old man’s behavior very odd.
“Young Master, there is something strange about this kid. If we fight, I’m not sure I’ll gain the upper hand,” the old man transmitted to Gan Hao.
“How is that possible! This guy is only at the Dao Transformation Realm. To you, he is like an ant. How could you possibly not be able to defeat him?” Gan Hao found it hard to believe.
“Young Master, I suspect this kid possesses a powerful Soul Power type artifact. He just used that Soul Power artifact to attack me. Let us retreat for now and find another opportunity to deal with him,” the old man said.
The old man simply couldn't believe that a kid at the Dao Transformation Realm could use soul techniques to stand against him. He was convinced Ye Yunfei must possess a Soul Power type artifact.
“So you’re saying, this kid possesses a Soul Power type artifact that even you find difficult to handle?” Gan Hao’s heart stirred upon hearing this.
“Absolutely,” the old man nodded.
“Kid, just you wait and see.”
Gan Hao took a deep look at Ye Yunfei and spoke coldly.
Then he turned and left with the old man.
What’s going on?
Gan Hao was willing to let it go just like that?
The crowd of onlookers was dumbfounded and rather bewildered.
“How much for all these items? Name your price.”
Ye Yunfei looked at the sister and brother.
“This young master, I’ll sell all these items to you for one million Low-Grade Law Crystals. Primarily, this treasure is valuable. The other items aren’t worth much, consider them a gift to you, young master,” the young woman said hurriedly, overjoyed to see Gan Hao leave.
If it weren’t for Ye Yunfei, this treasure would have likely been taken by Gan Hao already. She felt immensely grateful to Ye Yunfei.
“No, in fact, the most valuable are these pieces of wood. How about this? I’ll give you ten million Law Crystals.”
Ye Yunfei spoke, taking out a spatial ring and handing it to the young woman.
What?!
Everyone around was completely stunned.
In fact, the price of a Low-Grade Heaven’s Path Treasure in the Eastern Barrens was generally just over two million Low-Grade Law Crystals. For Ye Yunfei to offer ten million Law Crystals at once was already far beyond its value.
Could those black wooden blocks really be that valuable?
“Young Master, these wooden blocks were left behind by our ancestors. They’ve been lying unused in a corner of the storeroom. We brother and sister only brought them out to sell because we’ve reached the end of our rope. They’re probably not worth much. Young Master, I’ll only take one million Law Crystals from you,” the young woman was taken aback and declined.
“No. I say they’re worth it, so they are.”
Ye Yunfei waved a hand. The spatial ring floated before the young woman. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he swept up all the items from the stall, turned, and walked away.
“Ruan Chan thanks the young master for your immense kindness!”
The young woman called out loudly towards Ye Yunfei’s receding back.
Some time later...
Ye Yunfei arrived before a massive palace. On the plaque above its entrance were engraved two large characters: 'Pill Hall.'
“Halt! This is Zidan Valley's important grounds. Unauthorized persons are strictly prohibited from entering!”
As soon as Ye Yunfei arrived in front of this Pill Hall, several guards rushed forward, shouting angrily.
“Send someone out who can actually make decisions.”
Ye Yunfei stood with his hands clasped behind his back, speaking indifferently.
“Kid, it seems you are tired of living!”
Seeing Ye Yunfei’s youthful appearance and unremarkable cultivation level, yet hearing him speak such words, the guards were enraged. They took him for a greenhorn who didn’t know his own limits. One of them threw a punch towards Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei flicked his sleeve.
Thump, thump...
All the guards were sent flying.
“If you don’t want to die, go call someone. Now!”
Ye Yunfei glared and shouted.
The terrified guards scrambled into the palace.
“Kid, who are you? Why do you come to our Zidan Valley’s territory to cause trouble? Do you truly not regard our Zidan Valley in your eyes?”
Soon, a middle-aged man charged out. As soon as he saw Ye Yunfei, he demanded sternly.
“This is a visiting card. Deliver it to your Zidan Valley’s higher-ups. Tell them the Senior Brother of Yan Country’s Ziwei Sect has come.”
Ye Yunfei raised his hand and sent a jade slip hovering before the middle-aged man, then turned to leave.
Ye Yunfei was following the principle of courtesy before force—first clearly stating his identity and presenting the visiting card. Soon, he would be able to discern Zidan Valley's current stance towards Ziwei Sect.
“Ziwei Sect Senior Brother?
“Kid, halt! Make yourself clear!”
Hearing the words “Ziwei Sect,” the middle-aged man’s expression changed. Then he stretched out a hand, grasping towards Ye Yunfei like lightning.
Ye Yunfei flicked his sleeve backward.
Boom!
The middle-aged man only felt an overwhelmingly fearsome energy surge forth, slamming into him and sending him flying. He landed some distance away, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
This middle-aged man was merely at the late-stage Fate Decree Realm. He couldn't withstand a single flick of Ye Yunfei’s sleeve!
