He left the Eternal Tower with Ye Menglong.
Ye Bai did not settle in the Eternal Core City, but returned to his own private space first.
"Fool, I'm back!"
Ye Bai was in a very good mood after successfully reclaiming the thirty-first floor.
On the thirty-first floor, I completed Ye Menglong's nine reincarnations, which took quite a bit of time, more than five hours in total.
With only one hour left, it's too rushed to complete the challenges.
In the past, Ye Bai would have given it a try.
The Eternal Tower is now occupied by the minions of the most powerful demon god, increasing the difficulty of clearing the level by more than tenfold.
Even on the thirty-first level, Ye Bai had to pay Huo Tianyi to let him pass easily in the end.
Otherwise, Ye Menglong might really have failed in all nine lifetimes, falling at the final hurdle and completely perishing in the simulated world.
The foolish master, who arrived upon hearing the news, had a frosty face and an unfriendly expression.
"Shura, don't forget what you promised me."
Ye Bai was furious.
"What are you saying? Do you think I'm the kind of person who would go back on my word?!"
The foolish master sneered.
"First, you might change your mind. Second, it's hard for you to believe you're a human being."
Ye Bai didn't take the foolish master's offensive words to heart.
You can't win a fight, and calling someone an idiot doesn't give you any sense of accomplishment. What else can you do?
The Foolish Master emphasized,
"We agreed beforehand that the things we got from the Tower Spirit would be split 30/70."
"I know, I know."
Ye Bai pointed at Ye Menglong and said,
"My apprentice gets an extra piece of equipment, how should we divide it?"
As Ye Bai spoke, he gave Ye Menglong a wink.
Ye Menglong understood immediately; the Dream Master was about to exploit a bug again.
He removed all the equipment from the Qiankun Ring and took out the Qiankun Ring alone.
It's called the Universe Ring, but it's actually just a broken steel wire. Even a foolish master wouldn't want it if it were given away for free!
"Shura..."
The foolish master, gritting his teeth in anger, suddenly realized something.
She took out a cleaver and said seriously,
"Show your apprentice a 30/70 split!"
Judging from the idiot's tone, he's preparing for a physical dismantling.
"What a ruthless demon!"
Ye Bai rolled his eyes and finally gave in.
For his business with Tarling to last, the Foolish Master, as an intermediary, is very important.
Moreover, this is only the first time.
There are still eighteen more floors ahead, plenty of opportunities to scam fools!
Ye Bai asked Ye Menglong to take out the pendant from the Qiankun Ring.
"A total of nine SS-grade equipment pieces, plus my good-for-nothing apprentice."
Ye Bai pondered,
"We'll split it 30/70. My third brother will get the seven SS-grade pieces of equipment, and the remaining 30% will be ours."
The foolish master nodded slightly.
This was agreed upon beforehand, so she naturally agreed.
"The remaining 30% wasn't originally planned to be divided."
Ye Bai waved his hand.
"They didn't say it was a 10/10 split! I'll take the loss and get 10%!"
The Foolish Master raised his boning knife once more, preparing to dismember Ye Menglong into eight pieces.
Sharpening knives, ready to pounce on cattle and horses—that's the essence of it.
Even if it's a 10/0 split, the idiot master will force a 50/50 split.
"Put down the knife and let's reason this out!"
Seeing that the 10-0 solution failed, Ye Bai proposed another plan.
"Fool, look! My apprentice works for me and even has to do odd jobs for the Tower Spirit. You can't just take that away from him, can you?"
The foolish master is asking for an exorbitant price.
Give me those two SS-grade equipment!
"One item at most!"
"Just one piece!"
Ultimately, the two reached a revenue-sharing agreement.
Seven SS-grade equipment pieces went to Xiaoyao, one to Master Shazi, and one to Ye Bai.
Ye Menglong kept only the Qiankun Ring in his hand.
A question mark slowly rose above Ye Menglong's head.
Is something wrong?
Seeing Ye Menglong's confusion, the Foolish Master chuckled.
"Your master calculates things this way; you'll understand later."
Ye Bai's generosity in dividing the spoils was certainly not due to a sudden change of heart.
To do business with Tarling, you need a middleman.
The middleman chosen by the Tower Spirit was the Pavilion of All Things, while Ye Bai chose the Foolish Master.
Choosing Wanwuge is to ensure fair and just transactions!
Ye Bai chose the foolish master to prevent the tower spirit from defaulting on its debts, so that there would be someone to collect the debt.
After putting away the seven SS-grade equipment pieces, Ye Bai looked at Ye Menglong and said seriously.
"I will give these equipment to my third brother, who is also your savior, through the Wanwu Pavilion."
Ye Menglong nodded and did not raise any objections.
I have no way to repay the life-saving grace.
What are a few pieces of equipment anyway?
"Of course, Wanwu Pavilion values fairness and impartiality in its transactions, just like I do."
Ye Bai continued to explain,
"These items will be priced clearly once they enter the Wanwu Pavilion. You can buy them back when you have more money in the future."
After thinking for a moment, Ye Bai added,
"I will speak with Zhao Qian and make sure that these equipment will not be sold to the public for at least a year."
Ye Menglong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sighed inwardly.
"The Dream Master is afraid that I will neglect my cultivation and waste my days, so he is using this incident to encourage me!"
Ye Menglong clenched his fists, making up his mind.
"I can't let the Dream Master down. I'll buy all of this equipment back within six months, no, within three months!"
The Foolish Master could tell from Ye Menglong's expression that he had misunderstood.
The foolish master pointed out incisively,
"Tch, your master is just stingy, he doesn't have that many ideas."
Seven SS-grade equipment pieces, put together, are worth no more than 50,000 War God Merits!
