Ying Shiyi scrutinized the young man before her, his bewildered eyes filled with deep confusion.

Blood, full.

Status: Full.

Shadow Armor, okay.

Where did the counterattack come from?

Old Lan remained calm, as if he were used to it.

"Resolved?"

Ye Bai nodded. "One."

As he spoke, some prismatic fragments emerged from his shadow, covered in a layer of frost.

"The shattered Abyss Pearl has been sealed away and is the most valuable collectible on the body of the Demon God of War."

Old Lan turned his head away; just looking at the fragments a few times was a considerable burden for him.

Shadow Eleven stared at the fragments and spoke.

“I saw Ice Spike, the demon god of war of the Fifth Abyss, once on the battlefield of the Abyss twenty-one years ago when he was being chased by Xu Qingfeng.”

"I think I heard someone praising me."

Xu Qingfeng walked in triumphantly, but his expression froze when he saw the ice crystal fragments on the ground.

"This Abyss Pearl looks so familiar, where did it come from?"

Ye Bai: "Just slaughtered, Old Xu, do you want some?"

Xu Qingfeng then noticed that there was a young man in the room!

The opponent was completely covered in shadow armor, making it impossible to see their face, not to mention there was a specially made lone wolf mask behind the shadow armor.

but!

At this very moment, in the Stitched Abyss dimension, the young man who could appear before Shadow Eleven and Elder Lan...

There is only one answer if all these conditions are met!

Asura!!

Xu Qingfeng instinctively wanted to go forward and greet him, but then felt that his behavior would be too offensive, and even couldn't help but take two steps back to ensure Xiu Luo's safety.

He even ignored the trivial matter of Shura calling him Old Xu.

"Ah...you...me"

Xu Qingfeng stammered for a moment, finally managing to calm himself down.

May I have it?

The fragments of the Abyss Bead from the Demon God of War are perfect for forging equipment and weapons.

Xu Qingfeng specializes in wind and space magic, and the Abyss Beads of Ice Spikes can trap enemies and absorb damage, which is a good compensation for him.

The fragments of the Abyss Pearl before him, in terms of both grade and attributes, were quite to Xu Qingfeng's liking.

If the price is right, buying it will guarantee a profit.

"sure!"

Ye Bai nodded. "With money, there's nothing to worry about."

"Come on, let's talk about the price."

If Xue Meng were there, he would only say one word to Xu Qingfeng:

"run!"

If a qualifier were to be added before this word, Xue Meng would prefer it to be:

"Run at full speed!"

Do not approach the Asura, or you will suffer misfortune!

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

Some people may be destined to face misfortune.

The naive Xu Qingfeng, like a lamb, willingly walked into the embrace of a hungry wolf.

Strictly speaking, Ye Bai is very fair in business.

He would never earn nine cents if he could earn an extra dollar.

Facing a wealthy patron, Ye Bai introduced,

"Although these Abyss Beads came from the ninth-tier War God Ice Spike, they are flawed in their grade and can be considered at most a seventh-tier War God."

"Wait, Ice Spike has become a ninth-tier War God?"

Xu Qingfeng looked surprised.

"The last time we fought, he was only a sixth-tier War God. It's only been twenty-one years!"

The evolution of abyssal monsters differs from that of humans.

Some monsters are born with the rank of a demon god, such as [Feng Qi].

Some monsters remain stagnant in strength throughout their lives, like [Feng Qi].

What makes a legend a legend is that it easily accomplishes what ordinary monsters cannot.

In response to Xu Qingfeng's question, Ye Bai nodded.

"Most likely, he gained some insights after fighting you and went back to break through."

Xu Qingfeng's face darkened, his expression becoming inscrutable.

This dark history must not be spread!

He, a dignified ninth-tier wind-elemental war god, failed to kill a sixth-tier demon war god, and after the opponent escaped, he even broke through to a higher level?!

If this gets out, wouldn't Xu Qingfeng become a disgrace to the ninth-level War God?

No, absolutely not!

Xu Qingfeng waved his hand.

"I'll take all these fragments. Name your price!"

Ye Bai was waiting to hear those words!

"Look, this fragment is of excellent quality and texture. The last time a fragment of the same grade of Abyss Bead was traded at the Myriad Things Pavilion, it cost 800 War God Merits..."

"This one has a transaction record of 650 War God Merits. I'll give you a discount and sell it to you for 645."

"Take a look at this. I wouldn't have sold it if you hadn't asked. It's 888, a fixed price. You'll make money, and so will I!"

"......"

The price offered by Shura was really fair.

Xu Qingfeng has been famous for many years, and he is not a fool who can be slaughtered at will.

Every time Shura made a price offer, it was precisely at the highest point of the goods' value!

Logically speaking, even the most experienced businessman can make mistakes in business.

However, Shura has a keen eye and a masterful grasp of pricing, a skill that can be described as unparalleled!

Xu Qingfeng felt that many of the fragments were not worth it, even if they only added 5 more points of War God Merit.

As luck would have it, Shura's offer hit the nail on the head for Xu Qingfeng!

I can't bring myself to haggle.

If we don't haggle, it doesn't seem like there's any problem.

After quoting the prices of all the fragments, Ye Bai concluded,

"A bunch of Abyss Pearl fragments, totaling 3453.8 War God Merit Points, rounded down to 3453.5 War God Merit Points."

Would you like to pay by card or cash?

Xu Qingfeng could accept this price.

"Swipe your card."
