The Mysterious Merman
With Ye Fei's current strength, even if it was a sneak attack, he wouldn't be hit by a little girl's spirit melon skin. He turned sideways and bent his waist, dodging the black shadow.
However, while Ye Fei dodged, Third Master Shang, who had rushed over after hearing the news, felt a cool sensation on his head. A piece of spirit melon skin had been placed on his head.
Third Master Shang's smiling face instantly darkened. He looked at Ye Fei with a bitter expression and asked, "Young man, why did you dodge?"
Realizing that he had gotten himself into trouble, Shang Luo was so scared that he quickly stuck out his tongue. He also hurriedly turned the tables and asked, "That's right, why did you hide? I know, you deliberately schemed against my Third Uncle!"
"What, Luoluo is telling the truth? Young man, how dare you set up Third Master Shang!" Third Master Shang was furious. He glared at Ye Fei as if he wanted to eat him alive.
Ye Fei wanted to vomit blood. Shangluo was indeed ruthless. She was the one who had caused the trouble, yet she could still shift the blame to someone else so righteously.
"Third Master Shang, please don't misunderstand. I'm here to look for the spirit eye. It's very important to me. "Ye Fei's expression became serious.
Third Master Shang was no longer the Mad Warrior King. He nodded at Ye Fei's words. Of course, he understood that this was Shangluo's fault. He was just unlucky to be standing behind Ye Fei.
After removing the spirit melon skin from his head, Third Master Shang asked, "By the way, I heard that you destroyed the Blood Demon Sect. Many young Martial Kings have left for Zhong Province. Why haven't you left yet?"
Ye Fei smiled bitterly and said, "I do want to leave, but I have been entrusted by someone to help an old man find his lost Spiritual Eye."
"Eh, that spirit eye belonged to your friend. You actually know a Spirit Eye Master. But this Spirit Eye Master is really unlucky. His most precious spirit eye was dug out by someone else. He even set up the Merchant Alliance." Third Master Shang was very depressed.
Ye Fei couldn't help but be curious. "Third Master, what's going on? By the way, why are you still in North Sea?"
Ye Fei hadn't heard any news about Shangluo for a few years. He thought that Shangluo had already returned to Zhongzhou. He was very surprised to meet them here, and now it was related to the spiritual eye.
Hearing this, Shangluo's eyes widened again. She angrily said, "Isn't it because your Demon Emperor Master is too hateful? He gave me all kinds of ingredients for the Face Retaining Pill, causing me to run around until my legs are broken these past few years!"
Shangluo was very depressed.
As it turned out, the reason why she had disappeared for the past few years was not because she had left the Central Continent, but because she was anxious to refine the miraculous Face Retaining Pill.
As for why Shangluo was so eager to find the materials for the Face Retaining Pill at such a young age, Ye Fei could also understand why he did not hesitate to waste his cultivation time and ran around outside for several years.
After all, as a woman, if she could maintain the appearance of a seventeen-year-old, she would definitely not wait until she was seventeen and a half. This was also the reason why Shangluo was so diligent.
After Third Master Shang's explanation, Ye Fei realized that Shangluo was not just being diligent. In order to make the Face Retaining Pill reappear in the Tianwu Continent, Shangluo had exploded with great enthusiasm. In three years, she had collected dozens of precious ingredients needed to refine the Face Retaining Pill.
With the current scarcity of resources in the Northern Region, even the Four Great Nations might not be able to collect all of these ingredients in three years.
From this, it could be seen that Shangluo had exploded with astonishing enthusiasm and perseverance for the sake of the Face Retaining Pill. Under the spur of this perseverance, several managers of the merchant alliance had been forced from the realm of Martial Revered to the realm of Martial King by Shangluo. With great difficulty, they had finally collected most of the ingredients.
Only the last ingredient was very special. It required the Deep Sea Spiritual Pearl. Such a treasure could only be found in the deep sea and was extremely rare. The merchant alliance had spent a year before they coincidentally met the legendary mermen in this sea region.
The mermen told the merchant alliance that they had the Deep Sea Spiritual Pearl in their hands, but the merchant alliance had to take out a large number of spirit stones to exchange for it. With the merchant alliance's wealth, of course, they took out a large number of spirit stones without hesitation and bought the Deep Sea Spiritual Pearl from the mermen.
However, before they could claim credit from Third Master Shang, Shangluo had discovered the flaw. The Deep Sea Spiritual Pearl was actually fake. Not only had the mermen tricked the merchant alliance, they had also cheated a total of two hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
This was also the reason why Ye Fei had seen a group of Martial Kings working as boatmen. With the mistakes they had made, other powers would have killed them to vent their anger. Shangluo had only asked them to work as boatmen to vent their anger. This was already very kind of them.
…
After saying all this and knowing Ye Fei's intention, Third Master Shang was not stingy. He took out the spiritual eye and said, "Young man, this is the spiritual eye. We have no use for it anyway. Since it belongs to your friend, you can have it."
"Thank you, Third Master Shang!"
Ye Fei was delighted. He thought to himself that Third Master Shang was indeed forthright and generous. He was indeed a good man.
When Ye Fei and Third Master Shang were talking, Shangluo acted out of character and actually listened quietly.
She listened silently at the side. This was clearly not in line with Miss Shang's usual shrewdness.
It was only when Third Master Shang took out the spiritual eye that was the fake spiritual pearl that she wanted to give to Ye Fei that she saw that Ye Fei seemed to be very interested in the spiritual eye.
Only then did Shangluo's eldest sister's eyes turn into gold, sparkling brightly. Her white hand was a step ahead, reaching out as well.
She grabbed and let go.
Ye Fei looked on in shock. The spiritual eye that was supposed to be in his hand had turned into the spiritual melon that Shangluo often ate, and the spiritual eye was now in Shangluo's hand.
Ye Fei was suddenly furious. He really wanted to beat up Shangluo for ruining his plans. "I wanted the spiritual eye. Why did you give me the spiritual melon?"
"That's right, Luoluo. We have no use for this spiritual eye." Third Master Shang was also puzzled.
Shang Luo looked at Third Master Shang speechlessly and said, "Third Uncle, have you forgotten what the Shang Clan does for a living? We are merchants. I spent two hundred thousand spiritual stones to buy this spiritual eye. How could I give it away for free?"
Third Master Shang slapped his forehead and said in frustration, "That's right. This spiritual eye cheated us of two hundred thousand spiritual stones. It's not right to give it to this young man for free."
"Not right my ass! Third Master Shang, what happened to being a hero? Didn't you say that money is nothing to you? "Ye Fei really wanted to grab Shangluo and give him a good beating.
How could he forget that Third Master Shang was a generous man? Shangluo was an unscrupulous businessman!
Ye Fei had no choice but to say to Shangluo, "Shangluo, this spiritual eye concerns the safety of the entire Northern Region. You can't take advantage of this opportunity to rob us, right?"
"Hmph, you said it was so serious. Who knows if it's true or not?" Shangluo obviously did not believe Ye Fei.
Ye Fei felt depressed. Why was it that no one believed him when he spoke the truth? However, after thinking about it, he realized that a single spiritual eye was related to the safety of the Northern Region. If he hadn't seen the stone door with his own eyes, Ye Fei would not have believed it.
"You can't expect me to compensate you with two hundred thousand spiritual stones, right? I can't afford that." Ye Fei spread his hands helplessly.
"Don't worry, I won't extort you. You can have the spiritual eye if you want, but you have to help me deal with those mermaids."
