"That's indeed not a good thing. Many people want to kill Lan Jing precisely because they have their eyes on what she has. Now that I've managed to get rid of Lan Jing after so much difficulty, yet I didn't get anything from her, others might not believe me if I tell them," Xia Fei muttered to himself.
Old Man Dustfloat sighed. "There's a rumor that Lan Jing was a traitor from some mysterious universe who stole her master's treasures and fled to the Alpha Universe to seek refuge. This rumor may not be credible, but many people have personally seen Lan Jing use powerful treasures to kill. Your grandfather is an example. He obtained many good things from Lan Jing. You should know this better than anyone."
Xia Fei nodded. The Peacock Blue he had was brought from the outside by Lan Jing, as well as the Primal Chaos and the Beast Spirit Codex. These were enough to prove that the rumor was true.
Thinking of this, Xia Fei recalled what Lan Jing had said before she died. There was more than one Cosmic Gate, and these gates would open sooner or later, connecting the countless universes into one. When that time came, the experts of the various universes would erupt, creating an incredibly chaotic situation.
Xia Fei was also concerned about the whereabouts of the other four Divine Armaments.
Xia Fei furrowed his brows. It seemed that even if he went to another universe, he would not be able to escape from the entanglement of trouble.
Dustfloat did not know about the other four Divine Armaments and thought that Xia Fei was worried about him.
Thus, he smiled and said, "There's no one in the Alpha Universe that can threaten me. The reason I said it's a little troublesome is because there are more than one wanderer like Lan Jing out there. These fellows often grasp mysterious powers that we don't understand, and they're very powerful.
"It won't take long for news of Lan Jing's death to spread throughout the universe. If some wanderer hears that I killed Lan Jing and thinks that all her treasures are in my hands, they might launch a surprise attack. After all, I'm the most suspicious of the four, which is why I'm a little worried. You don't have to worry. In truth, this old man still has a foundation. Anyone who wants to deal with me will have to first consider if they're strong enough."
Xia Fei understood what Dustfloat meant. He was afraid of trouble. If the rumor spread, everyone would want to cut a piece of Dustfloat's flesh. If that happened, he would not need to do anything else all day. Just dealing with these flies would be enough to annoy him to death.
"No matter what, this storm is finally over. Lan Jing is dead and it is a great thing for both you and the Extreme Light Race. What are your plans next?" Fuchen asked.
This adorable old man seemed to care a little too much about Xia Fei. Even though he had been dragged into this mess by Xia Fei, he had no intention of leaving. Instead, he was still making plans for Xia Fei's future.
"Three things," Xia Fei said in a deep voice. "First, I want to rebuild the academy. Second, I want to get rid of the renegade ghosts."
Fuchen nodded and said, "That isn't a bad idea. The Aurora Race is still related to you and they aren't considered bad people. It's just that their personalities are too lousy and they are resigned to adversity. Even I don't like them. If you can change their habits, it will be considered as doing a good deed for the race."
"As for the renegade ghosts and the others, there's no need to worry. In any case, the Law Realm is still safe for now. You just need to establish a connection with them and know their movements at any time. What's the last thing?"
Xia Fei's eyes suddenly revealed a hint of fanaticism as he said in a deep voice, "I'm going to that place for a while. Now."
"Where is it?" Fuchen asked curiously.
"Bluecrystal's lair, the place where my grandfather obtained the Immemorial Mystical Armament," Xia Fei whispered. "We have to be fast. I believe that the various factions have already begun to move in search of the legacy left behind by Bluecrystal."
Celestial Treasures Bank, Garde Branch.
Bao Xiuzhu was very surprised that Xia Fei had come to look for her so quickly. Just a few hours ago, she was still worried about the battle outside the city.
"Are you alright?" Bao Xiuzhu blurted out when she saw Xia Fei.
Bao Xiuzhu blushed the moment she said it. She and Xia Fei only had business dealings at most, so these words were too ambiguous and did not seem like something she should have asked.
Xia Fei pretended not to hear her, taking out a list from his bosom and handing it to Bao Xiuzhu. "I need a few things at the last minute, so I'll have to ask Miss Bao for help."
Bao Xiuzhu smiled as she took the list. After taking a closer look, her expression could not help but change.
"You need so many basic soul tools?"
Xia Fei smiled. His eyes swept across the two sides as he whispered, "Miss, you misunderstand. How could Xia Fei know how to create soul tools? Isn't it because my master wants them?"
Bao Xiuzhu came to a realization and hurriedly said, "That's right. Xiuzhu was confused for a moment."
Bao Xiuzhu truly felt that there was something wrong with her. This business lady, who had been nurtured by her family since she was young, was not calm at all today. Xia Fei had already said that Bao Xiuzhu should keep her secret, yet she had actually blurted out Xia Fei's identity. Such a mistake would have been unimaginable in the past.
"Ever since the last time, I've transferred a batch of fairly good quality goods from the headquarters. There's a total of a hundred of them, and they'll be arriving tomorrow. I'll bring them all out for you to choose personally. As for the rest, I'll be able to prepare them all by this afternoon."
Xia Fei nodded, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you. Don't worry; I'm a man of my word. This time, my master plans on bringing out three soul tools. One of them will be given to Tong Jinliang, which is something we've already agreed upon. As for the other two, I can make the decision on my own and leave them to your Celestial Treasures Bank to handle."
Bao Xiuzhu was slightly taken aback. Her eyes immediately lit up as she appeared very excited.
The soul tool that Xia Fei was talking about was no ordinary soul tool but a healing-type soul tool!
In order to get a healing-type soul tool for free, Tong Jinliang had not hesitated to fall out with Blue Crystal and take a huge risk to help Xia Fei. This was enough to show how tempting a healing-type soul tool was.
Now that Xia Fei had opened his mouth to give Bao Xiuzhu two healing-type soul tools, he was definitely giving her a lot of face!
At this crucial moment when she was vying for the position of chairman of Celestial Treasures Bank, Bao Xiuzhu being able to get her hands on two rare healing-type soul tools would be of great help to her in the future! These were healing-type soul tools, after all! How many businesses would fight to get their hands on them? Money was secondary. Any businessman with real foresight would understand the value of these soul tools.
If they were to use these rare soul tools to make friends with important people in the universe, they would gain both weight and face. Others might not be able to get their hands on healing-type soul tools, but Celestial Treasures Bank could. This would invisibly widen the gap between them and the other three major trading firms!
Generous gift. What Xia Fei was giving out was definitely a generous gift! Bao Xiuzhu was so excited that she could barely speak.
Gritting her teeth, Bao Xiuzhu said, "As for the Evernight class small speedy multifunction warship on the list, I have a new idea."
Xia Fei curiously asked, "Oh? Is there something wrong with this warship?"
Xia Fei knew about warships. He had already checked the list of warships currently on sale in the Alpha Universe. The Evernight class was the best choice given his current financial resources. The warship was not big, but it was extremely fast, and its electronic equipment was also top-notch.
Those top-notch warships easily cost billions, and Xia Fei could not afford a price of tens of billions. Even if he received a hundred million pearls from Ye Yun for treatment, Xia Fei would only have about 105 million or so in cash on hand. It was impossible for him to buy those top-notch warships.
Bao Xiuzhu turned on the super-miniature multifunction device hidden in her bracelet, and the screen quickly rose. On it was a strange-looking diamond-shaped warship.
Xia Fei sighed and helplessly said, "Miss Bao, you're not messing with me, are you? Who doesn't know that this is the famous Diamond Star class speedy warship of the Alpha Universe? I can't afford this thing. Besides, even if I hand over the order, it will take at least fifteen years to complete. Even if I have the financial resources, the time doesn't allow it. "
Bao Xiuzhu shook her head and solemnly said, "This warship belongs to our Treasure Sky Store. I want to give this warship to you."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. He smiled and asked, "You're giving me a Diamond Star class warship? That's a big joke. Not to mention the long construction period of this warship, just the warship itself is worth more than ten billion! Moreover, this is the smallest model and the price of the lowest configuration. No matter how I look at it, your warship doesn't look like a low-configuration version. I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it for less than twenty billion pearls. "
"It's really for you. Including this order, our Treasure Sky Store will not take a single cent from you," Bao Xiuzhu said very seriously.
Xia Fei shrugged, took out a cigarette, and lit it. He sternly asked, "There's no such thing as a free lunch in the sky. Speak. What's your goal?"
These words were too direct, and Bao Xiuzhu felt a chill in her heart. There was nothing she could do about it. Xia Fei's ability to think was obvious. Xia Fei would never believe that Bao Xiuzhu would give him a priceless speedy warship without any ulterior motives.
Gritting her teeth, Bao Xiuzhu softly said, "I hope that when you sell a healing type soul artifact in the future, you'll think of our Treasure Sky Store."
Xia Fei had never been a pretentious person. Since he was willing to make this deal, and there was nothing to lose for him, he very readily agreed to it.
Soon, Xia Fei would set off for Aquamarine's lair in search of the legacy this old demoness had left behind. A top-class speedy warship would of course be of great help to him, so he had no reason to refuse.
After Xia Fei left, Bao Xiuzhu silently returned to the secret room in the backyard of Treasure Sky Store.
"Grandfather," Bao Xiuzhu softly called.
The old man who was drinking tea by himself in the room was the current patriarch of Treasure Sky Store, Bao Fengshan.
Bao Fengshan had a smile on his face as he had Bao Xiuzhu sit down beside him. "You did well. I saw it all."
Bao Xiuzhu was taken aback. She asked in confusion, "You don't blame me for giving Xia Fei your Treasure Mountain?"
"Actually, I do care a little." Bao Fengshan sighed and smiled. "After all, my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather had the Treasure Mountain custom-made. It's a unique existence in the universe. Come to think of it, this Xia Fei is truly infuriating, actually thinking that my ship is worth twenty billion.
"Still, you did well. To be able to form a relationship with a healing-type soul master with a limitless future is worth far more to our Treasure Sky Store than ten Diamond Star warships …"
At this point, Bao Fengshan's eyes widened. No matter what, he could not continue. His face was filled with fear! Even Bao Xiuzhu nearly cried out.
At some point, Xia Fei had appeared in the room like a ghost, standing in a dark corner with half a cigarette in his hand.
Bao Xiuzhu paled in fright. Xia Fei had said that she was not allowed to tell anyone that the healing-type soul master was Xia Fei, but she could not help but tell her grandfather. This was a huge taboo for Xia Fei!
Without saying a word, Xia Fei appeared like a ghost and disappeared like a ghost.
