"No, if it's not used for weapon crafting, then where else can it be used?"

Ye Ran's words,

This only confused everyone more.

He also chimed in with his best wishes:

"The spring stone from this ancient spring of life is one of the core gems for a superior healing staff; its quality is so high that it's even qualified to be used as a catalyst for a divine artifact..."

"Besides, if you use the spring stone for cultivation, to be honest, it is far less efficient than those less effective life springs."

After a pause, he added:

"It would be a waste to use this material elsewhere instead of forging weapons."

Because the son inherited the father's business,

Zhu Hao is also a very good weapon refiner.

As a weapon refiner, what I find most unacceptable is having top-tier materials wasted.

Even though the item has already been given to someone else, I shouldn't interfere.

However, out of professional ethics, he couldn't help but mention it.

Ye Ran nodded in response to Zhu Hao's words.

“Brother Zhu is right, these are indeed excellent materials for refining weapons, but I do have other uses for them.”

Hearing Ye Ran insist on her own ideas...

Zhu Hao sighed slightly and waved his hand: "Whatever. Anyway, the things are yours."

Subsequently,

He said to Le Enjing:

"I hope you will use the other treasures for weapon crafting. If that's not possible, you can ask me to forge them for you through the Holy Flame Alliance. That way, at least you won't waste them."

Le Enjing nodded: "Don't worry, I can assure you of that."

Subsequently,

Zhu Hao glanced at Ye Ran again.

He sighed helplessly and said softly:

"Please open this space for me. I can't stand seeing my treasure go to waste."

"Brother Zhu, are you so sure I'd waste this treasure?" Just as Zhu Hao was about to leave...

Ye Ran's voice came again.

Zhu Hao turned her head and looked at Ye Ran:

"Ye Ran, although you may have some experience in teaching, it is like a mountain to climb in a different field. When it comes to weapon forging, none of you here understand its value better than I do."

"What if I really maximize its value in other areas?" Ye Ran countered.

"That's impossible!!" Zhu Hao said firmly.

Ye Ran looked at Zhu Hao and said earnestly:

"Want to gamble?"

Ye Ran had already understood everything that had happened.

Zhu Hao is practically a wealthy and powerful God of Wealth.

At this moment, if we don't try to squeeze more money out of him...

Once you miss this opportunity, you won't find another one.

Zhu Hao frowned upon hearing Ye Ran's words.

He sensed Ye Ran's challenge to his professionalism.

In a short time,

Ye Ran's words ignited the stubbornness of the fire-type ability user.

He looked at Ye Ran: "Tell me, what are we betting on?"

Ye Ran lifted the spring stone from the ancient spring of life.

A rich vitality permeates the hazy green light emanating from it.

Ye Ran looked at the stone and said:

"Let's bet on the armor you're wearing."

Upon hearing this,

Everyone was stunned.

Goodness, what a huge appetite!

A small bet, and he ended up taking a divine artifact from someone?!

Even Zhu Hao instinctively covered her body at this moment, frowning as she said:

"Ye Ran, this joke is not funny. You're betting this artifact on a bet. Aren't you making a mountain out of a molehill?"

Are you kidding me?

This magical artifact is one of my most prized possessions...

Ye Ran shook his head: "Brother Zhu, rest assured, I am well aware of the importance of the divine artifact. I don't want your divine artifact."

Then, he looked at Zhu Hao and held up one finger:

"Brother Zhu, if I succeed, I'll lend you your armor for a month."

Listening to Ye Ran's explanation,

Zhu Hao then lowered his hand, looking at Ye Ran with a puzzled expression: "Why did you lend me your armor for a month?"

Ye Ran shook his head: "You don't need to know about Brother Zhu. So, how about it, are you in or not?"

After thinking for a long time, Zhu Hao finally spoke:

"And what about you? What if you lose?"

Ye Ran looked at Zhu Hao and said earnestly:

"If I lose, I will help you repair the cracks in your path."

Upon hearing this,

Zhu Hao was utterly shocked. He stared intently at Ye Ran, his brows furrowed.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Ye Ran calmly replied:

Whether you know it or not, only you, Brother Zhu, know best.

Ye Ran did not continue speaking.

I just silently watched and wished him well.

Although Ye Ran didn't speak.

However, Zhu Hao sensed that Ye Ran's eyes were flashing with a divine light that seemed to pierce through time and space.

He had nowhere to hide in front of Ye Ran.

"If the Great Dao is truly flawless, given Brother Zhu's status, there's no need for him to specifically seek out Sister Beiyuan."

Ye Ran stared intently at Zhu Hao.

"I don't believe that Zhu Zhushi's son is a reckless and pleasure-seeking person."

Ye Ran's words,

aggressive

Each sentence pierced the heart of Zhu Xin.

After a few words,

Zhu Hao, unsteady on his feet and looking dazed, took a half-step back.

He looked at Ye Ran, completely baffled.

At this moment, the pressure Ye Ran exerted on him was no less than that of his father, Zhu Duanjin...

"Who...who are you???"
