Lu Fan bent down to pick up the Yang Stone from the ground, looked at it, and then casually tossed it to Li Yu behind him.

Li Yu reached out and took the Yang Stone, looking puzzled.

Looking at the Yang Stone, which had become like an ordinary stone, Li Yu activated his Qi Cyclone and injected a little of his energy into it.

After the dim Yang Stone in his hand was replenished, it instantly regained some of its luster and once again emitted a faint heat and Yang energy.

As a surge of yang energy suddenly returned to Li Yu's body through the vortex, it immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction from the Nightmare Beast and the little infant spirit in his spiritual sea. They immediately expressed their emotions, and Li Yu felt a faint sense of rejection coming from his body.

Li Yu then realized why he hadn't seen a single ghost near Ningcheng.

Moreover, after he entered Ningcheng, the usually talkative Nightmare Beast remained silent. Not only did the Nightmare Beast stop talking, but even the little infant spirits that loved to run around stopped coming out.

It turns out it's all related to this stone in Ningcheng.

Judging from the dislike and extreme aversion conveyed by the Nightmare Beast infant spirit, it was clear that it strongly resisted the Yang Stone.

Although the yang energy in the yang stone is not enough to instantly destroy a ghost, it can easily cause the ghost intense discomfort.

After examining the Yang Stone, Li Yu casually tossed it back to him.

Lu Fan caught the Yang Stone, then paused for a moment before throwing it back.

"Here you go, consider it a thank you gift for coming to save me."

Li Yu took the Yang Stone and replied with a smile:

"I didn't even lift a finger, so you should keep this fee for your trouble."

Such an important item was being tossed back and forth between the two of them, and Li Yang, who had been silent all along, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Just as Li Yu was about to throw the Yang Stone back again, Li Yang flashed between Li Yu and Lu Fan, bowed slightly to them, and spoke first:

"Lord Li Yuxing, Lord Lu Fanxing, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

"Lord of Liyang City, you're too kind," Lu Fan replied politely.

Li Yu was much more casual and said directly, "Lord Liyang, you secretly made connections with the Seventh Regiment and deliberately let them pass through Kangcheng. It seems you've had your eye on Kangcheng for a long time."

"If I'm not mistaken, the new road connecting Yangcheng and Kangcheng should be almost finished."

"I wouldn't dare." Li Yang smiled slightly: "It was just that during the process of teaching formations, I developed a mutual respect with the men of Commander Li Yu's Seventh Regiment, so I wanted to find them a place to belong."

Li Yu didn't press for more information, but instead deliberately tossed the Yang Stone in her hand around casually.

He knew that Li Yang had come all the way from Yangcheng, so far away, clearly for this thing in his hands.

As expected, Li Yang's gaze was fixed on the Yang Stone that Li Yu had casually tossed into the air.

Li Yang was already quite familiar with the two star lords, so he stopped hiding his intentions and spoke directly:

"Since the two star lords don't care about this Yang Stone, why don't you give it to me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu grabbed the Yang Stone that had been thrown up and turned to look at Lu Fan, who also looked at her at the same time.

Back in Yangcheng, Li Yang had taken great care of the two of them, treating them with the highest level of hospitality. It could be said that Li Yang had treated them exceptionally well, leaving no room for complaint.

Li Yu knew that although the stone was magical, it was completely useless to someone like him who dealt with ghosts all day long, and it was obviously inappropriate to bring it back to Kangcheng.

If Lu Fan doesn't want it either, returning it to Li Yang isn't out of the question.

Lu Fan also looked at Yang Shi. From the fragments of information he had gathered from the Ye family, he knew that this stone had long belonged to Yangcheng and was considered the city's most prized possession. If Li Yu didn't want it, it would be perfectly reasonable for it to return to Li Yang.

Seeing the two hesitate, Li Yang, who was standing in the middle, immediately added: "Of course, if it weren't for the two Star Lords' intervention, I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy for me to get the Yang Stone back. How about Yang Cheng pays for it? Or if the two Star Lords have any other conditions, please feel free to mention them."

Li Yang's attitude was unusually serious, and his words were extremely gentle and respectful. Coupled with the three of them's previous interactions in Yangcheng, it made it difficult for Li Yu and Lu Fan to refuse.

Lu Fan stated directly: "This stone now belongs to Li Yu, so it's up to him to decide. You can talk to him."

Li Yang turned to look at Li Yu, who, without saying a word, tossed the Yang Stone in her hand to Li Yang.

"Since Yangcheng needs it, then this stone is yours!"

Song Qingyi, who was standing to the side, and the people from the Changsheng Sect who were not far away were all dumbfounded and stunned, their eyes wide open.

Such a precious Ningcheng Yang Stone seemed to have become a hot potato, passing from one person to another, and was eventually given away casually!

Li Yang caught the Yang Stone that Li Yu threw to him and gripped it tightly in his hand.

The energy within his body resonated instantly with the Yang Stone, causing it to vibrate and hum.

Yang City's lost Yang Stone has finally returned to his hands, and Li Yang is filled with excitement.

Although Li Yu said she was giving it to him, he naturally couldn't take the Yang Stone for nothing, and immediately assured her:

"If you two star lords have any needs in the future, just let me know, and I, Li Yang, will definitely do my utmost to help you."

"Even if Yangcheng bought this Yang Stone, it's worth... fifty million Zhongzhou coins!"

"Fifty million!??" Li Yu, who had just taken a step, suddenly turned around and froze in place.

He didn't have the ability to activate his dual pupils, but a strange glint flashed in his eyes as he looked at Li Yang with a face full of doubt.

Seeing Li Yu's intense reaction, and considering his previous observations, Li Yang became even more certain of his judgment.

He has completely identified Li Yu's biggest "weakness"!

"It's fifty million!" Li Yang said with absolute certainty, smiling faintly before continuing:
