Eh?
Young Master Liu, where are you going?
You lost the bet, hurry up and pay my master!"
Just then, Hu Miao suddenly called out.
Everyone looked over, only to see Young Master Liu and his subordinates actually trying to slip away amidst the confusion.
Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei stepped forward and blocked Young Master Liu's path.
"Young Master Liu, one hundred thousand superior-grade Spirit Crystals."
Ye Yunfei said calmly.
"Kid, you dare ask my young master for Spirit Crystals!
My young master is the eldest son of Zixia Gate!"
One of the attendants flew into a rage.
"I don't care who he is.
Hand over the Spirit Crystals."
Ye Yunfei said calmly.
"Kid, get lost if you don't want to die!
There will be no good outcome if you dare provoke me!"
Young Master Liu roared angrily.
"Hmph!
One who bets must accept the consequences! The young master of measly Zixia Gate lost the bet right in front of us, and now you think you can just renege?
I'm here today. Let's see who dares to welch!"
At that moment, a slightly plump elder snorted coldly and spoke up.
"Elder Zhuo of Tianxuan Sacred Land!"
Young Master Liu's gaze shifted over, and he couldn't help but feel a shock.
Forget about him, even his father, the Zixia Gate Master, would have to treat this Elder Zhuo with the utmost respect and not show the slightest discourtesy upon arrival.
Thus, he took out the spatial ring from before and tossed it to Ye Yunfei, then turned to leave.
"Wait.
I remember you emphasizing earlier: it was 'get out', not 'walk out'.
Please get out now."
Ye Yunfei said coldly.
"Kid, you dare make me get out?"
Young Master Liu halted his steps and turned to glare furiously at Ye Yunfei.
"Get out!
Otherwise, you won't leave this place today."
Ye Yunfei said calmly.
"Get out!
Don't make a fool of yourself here any longer!"
Elder Zhuo of Tianxuan Sacred Land snorted coldly.
Young Master Liu's face flushed red, then turned pale. He wanted to rage but didn't dare.
Because this Elder Zhuo of Tianxuan Sacred Land was someone their Zixia Gate couldn't afford to provoke.
In the end, under the watchful eyes of everyone, this Young Master Liu rolled out on the ground like a gourd.
After rolling out through the courtyard gate, he turned his head and shot a vicious glare at Ye Yunfei before leaving.
"Young friend, don't worry. If this Young Master Liu dares come back for revenge, you just have to mention my name. I guarantee he won't dare bother you!"
Elder Zhuo stepped forward enthusiastically and said to Ye Yunfei.
"Thank you, senior."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Young friend, you are truly something else. You casually picked a ghost-gnawed stone and managed to cut out an ancient life form!
I'm very interested in this little fellow. Sell it to me!"
Elder Zhuo said with a smile.
So he wanted the little dragon!
The crowd came to their senses and finally understood why he had stepped in to help Ye Yunfei just now!
"Young friend, name your price! Name any price! I'm willing to pay a sky-high price to buy it!"
"Young friend, I'm Elder Tong of Jiuhua Sacred Land. If you sell this little dragon to me, from now on, you'll be an honored guest of our Jiuhua Sacred Land.
In the entire Northern Wastelands, no one would dare provoke you!"
...
Immediately, the others around all voiced out one after another, wanting to buy the little golden dragon.
Everyone knew that an ancient life form cut from within a crystal stone must be exceptionally precious.
"Young friend, I hail from Sacred Land. I'm Elder Pang of Tianji Sect. If you sell this golden dragon to me, you can name a sky-high price!
Moreover, our Tianji Sect will owe you a favor."
Suddenly, a grey-robed elder spoke up.
As he spoke, a powerful aura of spiritual energy pressure was deliberately or inadvertently revealed.
An Elder of Tianji Sect!
A Soul Formation Realm expert!
Immediately, the people around gasped in shock.
Tianji Sect was a renowned name throughout the Xuanhuang Star Domain, and an Elder of Tianji Sect held an extremely high status.
Moreover, this grey-robed elder was clearly a Soul Formation Realm expert!
"An Elder from Tianji Sect. Coming to Northern Wastelands... he must be here for me!"
Ye Yunfei glanced at Elder Pang, a thought stirring in his heart.
"Young man, I am the Deputy Patriarch of Bihai Divine Church. If you sell me this little dragon, I can teach you one of the secret techniques of our Bihai Divine Church!"
A palace-dressed beautiful woman stepped forward and said to Ye Yunfei.
An illusory image of a vast blue sea materialized behind her, releasing an astonishing aura of energy pressure.
Yet another Soul Formation Realm expert!
"Young man, I am the Divine Sword Child, the Grand Elder of Heavenly Sword Sect. If you sell me this little dragon, I will not only give you a satisfactory price, but also teach you one of the brilliant swordsmanship techniques of Heavenly Sword Sect."
A short elder said clearly. In that moment, wave after wave of sharp sword radiance erupted from his body, tearing and sizzling through the surrounding space.
Another Soul Formation Realm expert!
Following that, several more Soul Formation Realm experts stepped forward one after another, declaring their identities and wanting to buy the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm in Ye Yunfei's hand.
The crowd looked at these Soul Formation Realm experts appearing one after another, utterly astounded.
Although everyone knew that anyone who could enter this inner courtyard was no ordinary person,
but who could have imagined there would be so many Soul Formation Realm experts gathered here!
"Young friend, our Dahuang Stone Field is willing to offer fifty million superior-grade Spirit Crystals to repurchase that little golden dragon. How about it?"
At this time, the elder who had been meditating in the corner of the courtyard also walked over and said to Ye Yunfei.
Upon hearing this elder's words, everyone present gasped sharply.
Fifty million superior-grade Spirit Crystals—this was already an absolutely staggering price.
For a moment, everyone in the courtyard looked at Ye Yunfei.
"Everyone, I apologize.
I feel I have a connection with this little dragon, so I currently do not intend to sell it."
Ye Yunfei spoke up.
What a joke. The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm belonged to an ancient relic beast; once it fully matured in the future, it would certainly be a supreme powerhouse.
How could Ye Yunfei sell it off?
"Hu Miao, let's go!"
After saying that, Ye Yunfei turned and left.
"Young friend, my sincerity is genuine!
Sell it to me!"
"Young man, don't leave yet! We can discuss this properly!"
...
Seeing Ye Yunfei leaving, the crowd called out one after another.
However, Ye Yunfei led Hu Miao away without looking back as he exited the inner courtyard.
Only, Ye Yunfei detected at least a dozen powerful strands of Soul Power tightly locking onto him.
Clearly, over a dozen experts were using their Soul Power to track him.
Among them were several Soul Formation Realm experts!
Ye Yunfei knew these experts had failed to buy it openly and were now planning to take it by force!
Ye Yunfei gave a cold smile.
With his current strength and hidden cards, even when facing Soul Formation Realm experts, Ye Yunfei had the confidence to retreat unscathed, so he simply wasn't afraid.
"Master, are we still gambling on stones?"
Hu Miao asked.
"Not for now. Let's go."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and said.
Thus, Ye Yunfei took Hu Miao and directly left Dahuang Stone Field.
The moment they left Dahuang Stone Field, Ye Yunfei noticed quite a few people secretly following him.
Remaining impassive, Ye Yunfei took Hu Miao wandering about.
"Kid, stop right there!"
When Ye Yunfei walked into a relatively secluded street, suddenly a large group of people swarmed up, surrounding Ye Yunfei and Hu Miao.
Leading them was none other than Young Master Liu of Zixia Gate!
"Kid!
Now let's see who's left to help you!
How dare you offend our young master! You're dead!
That beauty beside you will also become our young master's plaything!"
An attendant beside Young Master Liu laughed malevolently.
"Kid, you dared make me lose face publicly. I want your life!"
Young Master Liu glared at Ye Yunfei through gritted teeth.
The yellow-robed elder also followed beside Young Master Liu, watching Ye Yunfei with a cold smile.
"Go!
Kill this kid with random blades!"
Young Master Liu waved his hand.
Immediately, five or six people brandishing sabers and swords rushed at Ye Yunfei.
"Since you're looking for death, I'll grant your wish."
Ye Yunfei said indifferently, then pointed a finger.
Whoosh whoosh...
Five spiritual swords shot out simultaneously, whirling forward to slaughter.
Ah ah...
Wherever the five spiritual swords passed, one person after another was sliced into pieces. In the blink of an eye, apart from Young Master Liu and the yellow-robed elder, all the others were completely annihilated!
"Kid, you dare kill people of our Zixia Gate!
Offer your life up!"
The yellow-robed elder was both shocked and enraged. He took a step forward, and a torrential aura of spiritual energy pressure gushed out.
He was a Primordial Soul Realm early stage expert!
Puff!
A black flash zipped past, directly piercing through this yellow-robed elder's heart.
"You..."
The yellow-robed elder's body stiffened, his movements halting as he stared at Ye Yunfei with an incredulous gaze.
The next moment, his body slowly slumped downward.
"Y-you... you actually killed my men!"
Young Master Liu stared at Ye Yunfei with a horrified gaze, backing away continuously.
Ye Yunfei killed too quickly, and too decisively, making him utterly terrified!
"Now, it's your turn."
Ye Yunfei's indifferent gaze fixed on Young Master Liu as he said calmly.
"You wouldn't dare!
My father is the Zixia Gate Master. If you dare touch a single hair on me..."
Meeting Ye Yunfei's icy gaze, Young Master Liu's scalp went numb with cold. Steeling himself, he roared.
Puff!
A flash of black light arrived in an instant, piercing through the space between his eyebrows.
Young Master Liu's body was lifted and thrown backward. When he landed, he was already a corpse.
"Who killed my son?!"
An illusory figure rushed out from Young Master Liu's head—a middle-aged man with an imposing face.
This was a strand of Soul Power imprint.
"I did."
Ye Yunfei said calmly.
That middle-aged man stared fiercely at Ye Yunfei, raging mad, wanting to say something.
But before he could even speak.
Puff!
Ye Yunfei unleashed the Heavenly Soul Sword, instantly shattering this phantom.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
Just then, Ye Yunfei's expression changed slightly. Under the perception of his Soul Power, he found over a dozen figures emitting sharp auras heading toward his location.
Among them were several Soul Formation Realm experts!
The experts from within the inner courtyard of Dahuang Stone Field had arrived!
"Hu Miao, let's go!"
Ye Yunfei swung his sleeve, sweeping up Hu Miao, took a single step through space, and vanished.
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh...*
Over a dozen figures with sharp auras arrived one after another, landing at the very spot where Ye Yunfei had just killed.
"Strange. That kid was right here just now, gone in the blink of an eye!"
"He killed so many people in such a short time, and there was even an early-stage Primordial Soul Realm expert among them. Looks like that kid is no ordinary person!"
...
The dozen or so experts released their Soul Power, searching for Ye Yunfei's whereabouts.
But they found nothing.
