There were three stalks of withered grass and two palm-sized stones on the stall.
Moreover, with his eyesight, he could tell that they were just ordinary stones and weeds. They were completely useless.
"Why would someone sell these things?"
Wutian mumbled. He was afraid that he had made a mistake. He squatted on the ground and picked up a stone. He observed it carefully and found that it was indeed an ordinary stone.
Then, he put down the stone and picked up a stalk of withered grass. He sniffed it and found that it had a rotten smell.
Wutian looked up at the young man and asked curiously, "Does anyone want these things?"
The young man in black did not speak throughout the entire process. He chuckled and said, "Your grandfather is fishing. Those who are willing to take the bait, like you."
"Get lost!"
Wutian's face darkened. He put down the grass and got up to leave.
"Wait, brother."
The young man in black hurriedly called out.
"What's the matter?"
Wutian raised his eyebrows.
The young man in black smiled apologetically and said, "Brother, I think you've misunderstood. My name is Ni Yeye. I'm not your grandfather."
Wutian's brows relaxed when he heard that.
However, he did not continue to pay attention to Ni Yeye and strode away.
He could not help but laugh in his heart. What were this person's parents thinking? How could they give him such a strange name?
…
"What a strong murderous aura. It doesn't seem like he's here to find an old friend, but more like he's here to seek revenge. Looks like he's not an ordinary madman. Interesting!"
The young man in black stared at Wutian's back as a glint flashed in his eyes. He ignored the stall and quickly chased after him. He called out, "Brother, wait."
"You're not done?"
Wutian frowned and teleported. In the next instant, he appeared on a crowded street.
"I won't be able to find him now!"
Wutian mumbled. He looked around and walked toward a shop.
"Brother, I'm not a ferocious beast. Do you have to run so fast?"
However, he had just taken a step when that familiar voice rang in his ears again.
"How is this possible?"
Wutian was greatly alarmed. He turned his head and saw the black-clothed youth standing to the side. His eyes were filled with helplessness and resentment as he looked at him.
"He actually caught up. In other words, his speed is not inferior to mine. But why can't I sense the slightest bit of aura from him? Could it be that he's hiding his strength?"
Wutian cursed in his heart. He looked the young man up and down, but the result was the same.
"Hehe."
The black-clothed youth smiled mischievously and said, "My insignificant strength is nothing to spy on. You, on the other hand, are obviously very strong, but you don't emit any aura at all. How strange!"
The young man was curious.
Wutian said expressionlessly, "What's the matter?"
Naturally, he couldn't tell this person that his cultivation had been blocked by the Divine Miracle of Zhan Luo.
Moreover, the black-clothed youth gave him a very mysterious feeling. Since it was his first time in Xiyu City, it was best to keep some distance from him.
The black-clothed youth pouted and said, "Don't be so cold. Actually, I'm here to show you the way, but you have to pay me."
"No need."
Wutian directly refused.
The black-clothed youth hurriedly said, "Don't, I really don't have any bad intentions. I just want to earn some essence to support my family."
"Support your family?"
Wutian was taken aback and couldn't help but look at the young man again.
In the end, he discovered that he couldn't tell the young man's age.
As a result, the young man's mysteriousness in his heart increased another step.
"Goodbye."
Wutian dropped a sentence and was about to teleport again.
Unexpectedly, the black-clothed youth threw himself to the ground and hugged his thigh. He blinked his eyes and a few drops of tears fell down.
Then, he cried sadly, "Big Brother, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone behind your back to play with Little Sister Xiao He next door. I shouldn't have given her the gift you gave me. Big Brother, I apologize to you. Please forgive my ignorance. Please don't abandon me …"
The sudden scene petrified Wutian on the spot.
The surrounding crowd also turned their curious gazes over at the first moment.
After coming back to his senses, Wutian's forehead was immediately covered with a row of black lines. He said angrily, "What do you want to do?"
"Big Brother, I'm really wrong. Please don't abandon me."
The black-clothed youth raised his head and looked at Wutian with teary eyes. His eyes were full of pleading. Coupled with his thin body, he looked particularly miserable.
"I say, you're abandoning your biological brother for such a small matter. Are you still human?"
"That's right. He has already apologized to you. Why are you still so calculative?"
"They're siblings from the same mother. How could you abandon him so cruelly? You're worse than a beast."
"…"
The surrounding people began to fight for justice for the black-clothed youth. They glared at Wutian and scolded him with righteous indignation.
Wutian's frown deepened.
After the incident with You Hanyun, his mood was already very bad. Now that the black-clothed youth was making trouble, he was even more irritated.
Taking a deep breath, Wutian said expressionlessly, "Lead the way."
He had to compromise.
Firstly, killing was prohibited in the city.
Secondly, if he continued to make trouble, this matter would definitely escalate. At that time, it would not benefit him at all.
Hearing that, the black-clothed youth immediately smiled and wiped the tears on his face. He questioned, "Big Brother, you really won't abandon me?"
Wutian's gaze turned cold and a trace of killing intent flashed past.
The black-clothed youth's pupils constricted. He knew that he had gone overboard. He smiled embarrassedly and cupped his fists to the surrounding crowd. "Thank you, everyone. Ni Yeye is eternally grateful."
"F * ck, I'm your grandfather!"
"What an uneducated bastard. We just helped you and now you're taking advantage of us. You deserve to be abandoned by your big brother!"
"Ptui ptui ptui! I must have been blind to speak up for you. If it were me, I would have strangled such an uneducated child like you to death. "
"That's right. You have no respect for your elders. You're arrogant and rude. It's intolerable if you're not abandoned!"
The black-clothed youth's words of gratitude caused the crowd to rage on the spot. He was drowned in saliva!
Wutian's expression was cold, but his eyes were filled with schadenfreude.
"Oh, my mood … Dad, Mom, why did you give me such a painful name …"
The black-clothed youth lamented in his heart. As if his buttocks were on fire, he quickly led Wutian away from this place.
Soon, the two arrived in front of a restaurant. The black-clothed youth looked back. Seeing that no one was chasing them, he patted his chest and sighed in relief.
Then, he looked at Wutian and laughed. "Brother, I've made a fool of myself."
Wutian coldly said, "Speak frankly. Why do you insist on following me? We don't seem to know each other."
The black-clothed youth's expression turned serious. "I really only want the essence."
Wutian looked at him deeply and did not continue to ask.
Because he knew that no matter how he asked, it would be useless. He asked, "Where is the Ji Family?"
The black-clothed youth stretched out his hand and laughed. "Give me the essence first."
Wutian asked, "How much do you want?"
Rubbing his head, the black-clothed youth pondered for a while. Then, he stretched out a finger. "Ten million."
Wutian's lips curled. He sneered. "Do I look like an idiot to you?"
The black-clothed youth shook his head and laughed. "No, you don't look like an idiot. On the contrary, you're very smart. It shouldn't be difficult for you to understand that this ten million reward contains many things, such as certain information."
The youth's lips curled and his eyes flashed with the brilliance of wisdom. He gave Wutian the feeling that he was not a youth at all. Instead, he was more like a scheming old antique.
Wutian stared at the youth. His eyes flickered. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Deal."
After a long, long time, he spat out two cold words.
Then, he took out an empty mustard seed bag. But at this moment, the black-clothed youth stretched out his hand and stopped Wutian's next move.
The youth looked around with shifty eyes and whispered, "Brother, we can't reveal our wealth. Let's find a secret place or a restaurant and get a small private room. It won't be too late for you to give it to me."
Wutian nodded, but his eyes flashed with a touch of light.
"Let's go!"
The black-clothed youth yelled and happily led the way in front of him.
Wutian silently followed behind. Looking at the black-clothed youth, he was very confused.
He really couldn't figure out if this person was really after the essence or if he had other motives.
"You better not scheme against me, or else …"
Wutian's eyes flashed with killing intent!
The two walked for an hour and entered a restaurant called Ji Yue Lou.
The black-clothed youth walked to the counter and shouted, "Waiter, give me the private room on the east side by the window."
Hearing that there were guests, the waiter was initially welcoming them with a smile. But when he saw that it was the black-clothed youth, his smile disappeared and was replaced with disgust. Frowning, he said, "What are you doing here again?"
The black-clothed youth stood on his tiptoes and said arrogantly, "Nonsense, of course I'm here to drink. And I want monkey wine. Furthermore, it has to be 10,000 years old."
"Monkey wine!"
Wutian's heart skipped a beat.
"10,000 years old monkey wine."
The waiter raised his brows and looked at the black-clothed youth. He said disdainfully, "Sure, but take out the essence first."
"Kid, I advise you not to look down on people today. Because today, I've brought a rich man." The black-clothed youth pointed at Wutian behind him and said with a smile.
"Rich man?"
The waiter sized up Wutian and said indifferently, "Your appearance and clothes are passable. But whether you're rich or not, it's not up to your mouth to say. You'll have to prove it with your hands."
Wutian could tell that there was some conflict between the black-clothed youth and the waiter.
"How much essence does a jar of 10,000 years old monkey wine need?"
To be honest, he also had a strong interest in this monkey wine. He wanted to see if there was any difference between it and the monkey wine in the Star Realm.
"You don't even know the price. Seems like you're another bumpkin."
The waiter's eyes were immediately filled with disdain and he completely lost interest. He lowered his head and said indifferently, "100,000 essence per jar."
"So low?"
Wutian was stunned.
According to his understanding, monkey wine was far more expensive than that.
Take the monkey wine that he sealed in the Star Realm as an example. Even if he was offered tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of essence, he would not sell it.
