“Leader Yun!”
Xiao Jianghu laughed. “I am Xiao Wuyi, of the General Commerce League. I formally apologize to Leader Yun.”
A bark of laughter escaped Yun Yang as well. “Respectable Chief, you’re too polite. Your status is very significant. You’re supposed to be more cautious when you’re out and about. No such thing as apologizing for it. It is I, this junior, who is offensive.”
Xiao Jianghu - no, Xiao Wuyi - cackled and grabbed Yun Yang’s hand to shake it continuously in an incredibly warm manner, saying, “It’s still my fault for hiding my identity from Leader Yun; it’s a sign of insincerity to my partner… Don’t be offended, Brother Yun. This is honestly my fault.”
Yun Yang refused the apology ceaselessly, but Xiao Wuyi was still pulling his hand, and continued to say, “I know, too, that the duration between this and the last transaction is too short and the resources we collected exceeded Brother Yun’s expectations, so much so that it has troubled you… I deeply regret it as well.”
He said sincerely, “However, it’s a crucial point of time to the General Commerce League now. Our wish for millenniums could perhaps be fulfilled in the Celestial Luck Banner contest this time around… Fighting for the upper-class Celestial Luck Banner has always been the shared aspiration of hundreds of thousands of people in the league. It’s a wish that we can only bear in our hearts in the past but it’s so close, almost within our grasps now. We’re really reluctant to let it go when we’re only one step away… Don’t worry, Brother Yun. Whether it’s a success or not this time, you’ll be the decision-maker of when the next entry to the Spirit’s Grave will be. We will not doubt you. This is an exception that’ll never happen again!”
Yun Yang chuckled bitterly and sighed, “Since you’ve said so, Chief, of course, I’ll do my best to complete this task at hand first… sigh…”
A rather distressed sigh still exalted Yun Yang’s lips as he spoke.
“You’re easygoing, Brother Yun,” Xiao Wuyi chortled.
With a stretch of his hand, a gently glowing box made of amethyst appeared on his palm. He thrust 7it into Yun Yang’s grip swiftly and said, “Brother Yun, this is a core belonging to a Teal Bear Daemon General that I’ve gotten by chance back then. I’ve had it for a long time, but I’ve never used it. As a recipient of Brother Yun’s generosity today, I’ll give this to you as a sign of my sincerity. Don’t you dare reject me, Brother Yun. It’s nothing big, but it’s my expression of goodwill.”
The core of a Daemon General?
Behind the men, Zhang Changgong, Li Yixin, Lang Fantian, and Feng Guohai were distinctly moved when they heard it.
The Daemon Soldier, Daemon Guard, Daemon General… It would be the Daemon King after that! A Daemon General’s level of ability was similar to a human of the Saint-level; however, if a human Saint and a Daemon General fought head to head, there was no doubt the former would lose.
This was because the Yao race possessed an innate mystical power that humankind did not. Once they used the mystical power, it could escalate their capability to twenty percent and more.
As for the Daemon General’s core, it was a scarce treasure that a martial artist could only wish for.
The Yao race fighters were courageous creatures. Even when they failed to win a battle, they would self-detonate at the final moment to make the last attempt in harming their enemy. They would never let their opponent go easily. Said core was the core sitting on Xiao Wuyi’s palm.
It could be said that getting a Yao core was more about luck. As for the core of a Daemon General, one must have significant luck as well as an amazing capability. The core could increase a cultivator’s cultivation base by a few hundred years. It was truly a rare gem!
Now, Xiao Wuyi was actually giving it to Yun Yang, citing that he had no use for it?
The gift was too valuable. It was not a mere expression of sentiment anymore. Yun Yang was stunned by the sudden gesture as well, refusing repeatedly, “This - How can this be… You’re too courteous…”
Xiao Wuyi slapped the box into Yun Yang’s hand insistently and feigned anger. “If Brother Yun doesn’t accept it, you are insulting my crude present - it is akin to looking down upon my, Xiao Wuyi’s sentiment!”
Gripping the box that contained the Yao core tightly, Yun Yang replied, “This… This is really too courteous… It’s - it’s too… This younger brother… this younger brother can only… cough - receive it with a humble heart.”
Lang Fantian rolled his eyes, Feng Guohai coughed while Zhang Changgong wore a smile feeling amused.
This tactic of their Chief was usually useful once he humbled his status and cast it no matter which martial artist it was. Today, however, it did not seem so effective against this fellow!
How could they know about Yun Yang’s background and past experience? With how Yun Yang was, forget a Yao core - even if they were to dish the General Commerce League to him, he would at most say “Ah… how embarrassed I am…” and accept it without remorse or shame.
As for being bought from then on… cough, the Chief better not think about something like that. He would only be wasting his effort and hurting his head.
In spite of this, Chief Xiao’s apology and gift checked the boxes. Yun Yang was beaming as he invited them. “Chief, my other honorable guests, come here…”
He invited the group to the Central Peak’s hall. In the field of the hall, nineteen young children were cultivating and practicing wholeheartedly; not one of them noticed that there was a group of outsiders observing them.
Xiao Wuyi took a quick glance before turning a blind eye to them. To him, the young ones seemed to be talented and could be nurtured, but that was all there was to them. He had no idea that these children were waste material grade kind of talents just a few months ago…
Regardless, the group was occupied with only one thing - the Spirit’s Grave!
This was the most important matter. Everything else came second. This was all that filled their hearts and minds as they anticipated feverishly.
Yun Yang accepted the heaven and earth treasure as well as the mystical steels from Lang Fantian. Although it was previously mentioned that this exchange was made on the market price of nine hundred thousand upper-class spiritual jade pieces, Yun Yang could not help complaining when he actually saw what he had gotten, “It isn’t much different from the last time…”
It was a delightful surprise when he had received these items the last time, but he was now quite stumped to see the same items again.
“A lot of items from this batch of resources are repeats from the last time,” Yun Yang said helplessly, “Strictly speaking, this is a big disadvantage.”
“Hmm, young brother, what exactly do you mean to say?” asked Xiao Wuyi.
Yun Yang answered, “I know that the league is doing this in order to maximize the chances of obtaining the Qi of vitality. You’ve thought a lot about this and exerted much effort but even when this is the case and the quality of the goods is the same, I’m afraid the senior inside will still be dissatisfied. What if the senior asks if I’ve gotten this many items at once but have divided them into two entries? How am I supposed to argue? Do you think he’ll believe me even when I tell the truth?”
He chuckled humorlessly. “Once this feeling takes form, the barrier will be there unavoidably even if the senior may not get angry. If he were to modify the rules of exchange… it would be a whole lot of trouble to both me and the league.”
“Brother Yun is right. We’ve taken this for granted this time,” Xiao Wuyi replied in shock.
He turned to issue an order, “Change it to another batch.”
Lang Fantian looked anguished. Could everything be changed just because you said so? If only it was so easy!
