Tu Nian tried to persuade Yu Wen a thousand times, and his words were almost completely effective. In the end, he stopped being jealous. The two of them followed the curvy woman into the Misty Rain Pavilion, passed through a stone wall that was enchanted with a magic array, and saw Jin Nanfeng and an old acquaintance in an exquisitely decorated house.
"Oh, it's really you."
Liu Yuzhi, dressed in a cool outfit, leaned sideways on the soft chair and smiled at Tu Nian from afar, "I was wondering why Chi Chi fell into your hands during the competition. Little girl, you must have discussed this with my Chi Chi in advance."
She spoke lightly, but each word was filled with danger. Tu Nian's eyebrows twitched slightly, not knowing if she had heard it wrong. She always felt that in the deepest part of the danger, there was an inexplicable hint of teasing.
“This woman…”
"Senior Liu, what are you talking about?"
During the competition, Liu Yuzhi was dressed smartly and looked like a restrained Yuanying master.
Now she has put on this high-slit, hip-hugging thin skirt that outlines her figure and reveals the dark pink gauze lining underneath the skirt. The outline of her thighs is vaguely visible, and she looks like a willow swaying in the wind, extremely charming, showing Yanyu's usual beauty tattoo style to the fullest.
Holding down Yuwen Yiyi, who was about to explode, Tu Nian forcibly dragged her to a seat. His expression remained calm as he replied, "Let's not even mention that Yu Chi didn't know my identity at the time. We only became familiar with each other after the duel. Even if we had known each other all along, we would never dare to do something like this."
"But speaking of Chi Chi, I do have something I want to ask."
Tu Nian half-closed his eyelids as he spoke, looking coldly at Liu Yuzhi, "It's been so long since Chi Chi returned to Yanyu, even the most difficult mission should have been completed by now. We specifically requested her to come, where is she now?"
Liu Yuzhi just smiled without saying a word, her pair of lavender eyes seemed to be locked on Tu Nian. Tu Nian also looked at her without blinking. She was confronting her, but also trying to find out where the teasing came from.
The atmosphere in the room froze for a moment. Tu Nian looked at Liu Yuzhi's meaningful smile and felt uneasy in his heart.
After a moment's silence, Jin Nanfeng said calmly, "We're here to discuss a deal, so we don't have time for idle chatter. If Miss Liu is asking this question for Yanyu, you can exchange it for information of equal value. If it's just a personal impulse, it's better to wait until the deal is done before asking."
There was no need to release pressure or use a warning tone. Jin Nanfeng simply said these words, but to Liu Yuzhi's ears, they sounded absolutely majestic.
This is the terrifying aspect of the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Yu Wen Yi Yi listened and watched silently, her admiration for Jin Nan Feng almost overflowing from her eyes. Tu Nian was originally concentrating on playing a psychological game with Liu Yuzhi, but her palm was suddenly pinched tightly by her ten slender fingers. It was so painful that it directly ruined her concentration.
"Master Jin is right."
Liu Yuzhi lowered her eyes and looked away. When she spoke again, her words and actions were much more restrained, and the inexplicable teasing in her voice also disappeared. Tu Nian took in her reaction and wondered for a moment if he was too sensitive.
"The girl who contacted you said that you wanted to inquire about the sudden death of a direct descendant of the Gong family, as well as the recent appearance of a group of yellow-eyed, strong men in black."
Liu Yuzhi said, "The second piece of news is just a matter of price, so let's not discuss it for now. The first piece of news is quite special and must follow the rules of Yanyu."
She lit a stick of incense, half the length of ordinary incense, and placed it in the unusual incense burner in front of them. She pointed at the incense and said, "Before this stick of incense burns out, you need to offer a price that matches the news. Otherwise, this news will have nothing to do with you forever."
This rule was too unpopular. Yu Wenyi had never heard of it before and angrily slammed the table, "What a joke! Did you just say to start this? You should have at least informed me in advance!"
Liu Yuzhi chuckled and said, "This is the rule of my Yanyu. If you feel there is something wrong, you don't have to commit yourself to this small business of Yanyu."
Although Jin Nanfeng was not anxious, he frowned as well. "What is the standard for judging the price that Miss Liu mentioned?"
Liu Yuzhi frowned and said, "That's hard to say. But I've been dealing in Misty Rain Information for so many years, I won't default on my debts. It's still early, so why don't you guys make an offer first? If the price is right, the information will naturally be yours."
"Ah Nian, she's clearly playing tricks on me!"
Yu Wen said this one by one, looking at Tu Nian angrily, but Tu Nian's attitude was not as anxious as her and Jin Nanfeng. Instead, he seemed to be thinking about something, as if he had some plans.
"What did you think of?" Jin Nanfeng asked her.
Tu Nian didn't answer, but instead looked at Liu Yuzhi. "Since you said it's an equal exchange, does that mean that as long as my price is high enough, I can buy it along with the other information?"
Liu Yuzhi curled her lips in contempt and said with a smile: "That's natural."
"Well then, you heard it now."
As Tu Nian spoke, the first wisp of ash fell from the burning incense stick, and then her voice rang out without a second's delay: "Within the Bihai Gate, there is a divine artifact that is about to be unveiled."
The room was silent. The three of them looked at Tu Nian at the same time, each with varying degrees of surprise on their faces.
Liu Yuzhi's reaction strongly indicated that this news was either new information that Yanyu had never heard of, or even she did not have the authority to know it.
There's a magical artifact in the blue sea! Or is it about to be released?!
"Tu Nian, you can't talk about this kind of thing casually." Jin Nanfeng reminded in a deep voice.
Immediately, Liu Yuzhi narrowed her eyes dangerously. "Dear guests, we at Yanyu have always been honest in our dealings. Accordingly, we never accept dishonest customers. If anyone deliberately uses false information to deceive us, we, the girls at Yanyu, will not be easily bullied."
"Since I dare to give this information, I can naturally confirm its authenticity. Besides, shouldn't you consider distinguishing the authenticity of the information?"
Tu Nian shrugged as he spoke, "Your Yanyu news is valuable, so it's understandable that there are more rules. We understand."
"But once words are spoken, they are like spilled water. You have heard the price I offered, and you have already accepted it. If you want to deny it, I will not let you leave this door with this secret unless you can provide irrefutable evidence."
After deliberately glancing at the incense stick that had burned less than a fifth of its original length, Tu Nian raised his gaze to Liu Yuzhi again, "So instead of worrying about whether the news is true or not, Miss Liu, you should think about what kind of news you can exchange with me before this incense stick burns out."
No one present had expected that the "price" hidden by Tu Nian would be so explosive. Jin Nanfeng was silent and Yu Wen was shocked, while Liu Yuzhi was in endless entanglement.
After thinking for a long time, Liu Yuzhi finally said, "I'm really sorry, I need to consult the headmaster about this matter."
"Don't ask for instructions."
He stood up to stop her from leaving the room, and then stood between her and the formation. He smiled lightly and said, "Miss Liu, please ask Sect Leader Nan to come over."
