Jiang Ya looked at the ashen-faced Gu Yue Ye beside him, his heart feeling somewhat pleased.
This old man had forced him to bring him here. Jiang Ya only had rank one cultivation and was a junior. He was naturally inferior to Guyue Ye, thus he had no choice but to bring him here.
Now that he had lost face, Jiang Ya was rather envious of Fang Yuan's carefreeness.
Guyue Ye really wanted to slap Fang Yuan countless times and teach this arrogant junior a lesson. But for the vitality leaf, he could only swallow his anger and said: "Little friend Fang Yuan, you can't say that. You are still young and don't understand the importance of connections. There will always be times when you need help from others. Think about it, if you come to me for help in the future and I treat you the same way, how would you feel? "
"Bullsh * t connections!" Fang Yuan sneered in disdain.
The so-called unity was only because everyone was weak.
Connections were indeed necessary on Earth. After all, there would be no qualitative difference between people in terms of strength. But this world was a world where cultivation was possible, it was fundamentally different.
Connections were just an accessory to strength. As long as one was strong, connections would follow.
Those who pursued connections would definitely need help from others.
There was no need for connections — as long as one was strong enough, anything could be easily obtained. If not given, they would just snatch and kill, why would there be a need for connections?
Fang Yuan naturally would not take the initiative to spread these demonic thoughts.
But since he had already been disturbed, there was no harm in doing this business.
Thus, he said: "It's not that I can't sell it to you. One vitality leaf for sixty-eight pieces of Yuan stone. How many do you want? "
"Eh!" Guyue Ye was shocked by this seller and hurriedly said: "Little friend Fang Yuan Ye, your price is too expensive."
Fang Yuan snorted: "You don't have to buy it if you think it's too expensive. There are vitality leaves in the resources provided by the clan. You can also exchange for them with battle merits. "
Guyue Ye smiled bitterly: "How would I not know this? However, the Vitality Leaves in the supplies were all sold to those who had connections. Medicine Hall Elder Guyue Yao Ji is covering the sky with one hand, how can I interfere? Little friend Fang Yuan, why don't you do me a favor? I will definitely repay you in the future. In my opinion, sixty Yuan stone is a fair price. "
"I never expect anything in return. You've wasted enough of my time. Seventy Yuan stone. If you don't want to buy it, you can leave, "Fang Yuan replied.
Guyue Ye was so angry that he stomped his feet. "Little friend Fang Yuan, how can you do business like this?"
Fang Yuan chuckled. "Times have changed. It's now seventy-two Yuan stone. Every time you speak, I'll waste some time. If I'm unhappy, I'll raise the price. I hope you know what to do next. "
Hearing this, Guyue Ye's face revealed an extremely angry expression. He wanted to say something, but no matter how many times he opened his mouth, no words came out.
His old face alternated between green and red. Seeing this, Jiang Ya, who was beside him, secretly laughed.
Finally, Guyue Ye gritted his teeth and said: "Fine, I'll buy it. I need five vitality leaves."
"You can give the Yuan stone to Jiang Ya now. As for the vitality leaves, you can go get them from him three days later. "Fang Yuan said.
These words were too much. Exchanging money and goods was the most basic of fairness.
But Guyue Ye still paid the money and gave Jiang Ya several bags of Yuan stone on the spot.
His movements were faintly trembling. This was not much of his savings. He had lived frugally for a long time. But now, it was being exploited by an unscrupulous and unscrupulous merchant!
In the end, he walked out of the bamboo house with endless depression and depression.
"Lord Fang Yuan, you are truly taking revenge in such a manner! But I'm afraid you've offended Guyue Ye badly. This old man, when he was young, he would definitely take revenge. I'm afraid he won't let this go. "Outside the door, Jiang Ya said carefully.
"Let him be. Those who take advantage of their seniority will eventually be eliminated by the clan." Fang Yuan opened the door, and Jiang Ya quickly handed over the bags of money in his hands.
To fight against the wolf tide, the clan would have to expend a large amount of resources. With less resources, the huge organization would not be able to sustain itself, and would naturally have to lay people off.
These old fellows were wasting precious resources if they were alive, and were destined to be eliminated.
Eliminating the old and weak from the wolf pack was equivalent to driving these crippled wolves out. In human society, it would not be so obvious. Evil deeds would always be covered with a layer of light. Thus, these old Gu Masters were recruited.
So what if Guyue Ye saw through this world?
Being in the system, being in the pugilistic world, he had no choice.
The clan relied on the righteousness of protecting the clan to recruit them and make them sacrifice themselves. Who would dare to disobey?
There was a saying on Earth, 'if the monarch wants the minister to die, the minister has no choice but to die.' They could not even control their own life and death, but there would always be countless people fighting to be ministers. This was the charm and cruelty of the system.
"After the past wolf tides, how many of those old Gu Masters survived? This Guyue Ye, don't mention five vitality leaves, even if you gave him fifty, he might not be able to live. "Fang Yuan stood at the door, laughing coldly.
Jiang Ya heard this tone, and his heart could not help but feel a chill.
He felt that Fang Yuan had a kind of aura, icy cold, like the howling north wind, suppressing him so much that he did not dare to raise his head.
Fang Yuan looked at Jiang Ya, his eyes deep and dark, continuing, "From now on, unless there is a fixed time, you are not to look for me! If you go against this, you will have to bear the consequences. Letting you sell the vitality leaves on my behalf is just giving your brother face. But face is given by others, and also thrown away by yourself. You have to take care of yourself. "
Jiang Ya listened to Fang Yuan's reprimand, not daring to make a sound. Thinking of Guyue Ye's miserable state, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Also, from now on, the price of the vitality leaves will be raised to seventy Yuan stone per piece." Fang Yuan continued.
"Seventy Yuan stone?!" Jiang Ya swallowed a mouthful of saliva in shock, his eyes shining, as if he had seen the rolling Yuan stone.
But he still had some lingering fear, and said carefully, "Lord Fang Yuan, raising the price like this, will others think that we are profiting from the war? Won't there be a little suspicion of taking advantage of the situation? If we do this, we might incur the wrath of the masses. "
"Wrath of the masses? Hmph, so what if it is. Just do what I tell you to do, what's with all this nonsense. If someone wants to cause trouble, just say that I am selling the vitality leaves. "Fang Yuan snorted coldly.
"Yes, yes, yes." Jiang Ya quickly nodded. Fang Yuan's words were exactly what he wanted, and he was prepared to do so.
He was only a Rank one minor character, and could not offend too many people. He had already done so earlier, pushing all the trouble to Fang Yuan.
A minor character also had a minor character's survival wisdom, and Fang Yuan was naturally well aware of Jiang Ya's thoughts.
But with different cultivation and different periods, Fang Yuan would have a different lifestyle.
After using that red steel Relic Gu, he would be Rank two peak stage, close to Rank three. He could be considered to have started to grow, and with this strength, his life would be different.
Previously, he needed to keep a low profile, but now he needed to be strong.
Only by being strong could he obtain the greatest benefits.
As for this Jiang Ya, he still had some value. He had some thoughts, but as long as they did not infringe upon Fang Yuan's interests, he could completely tolerate it.
Even if he revealed some unimportant trump cards, it was no big deal.
During peaceful times, those higher-ups had nothing to do, and there might be some trouble. But with the wolf tide now, who could care about these minor details?
After the wolf tide, it was uncertain if the Guyue village could still exist.
…
Half a month later.
The lightning wolves surged like the tide, and the Gu Masters retreated step by step.
"Xiong Yuan Zhen, you have to hold on! The Guyue village is not far away. "Xiong Jiao Man looked at the clansmen on the ground, her eyes red as she shouted loudly.
"Big sister, I can't do it anymore. I have something in my heart that I want to say to you … "Xiong Yuan Zhen was on the verge of death, his injuries were severe, and his face was full of death.
"Alright, say it!" Xiong Jiao Man sobbed. She knew that although this Xiong Yuan Zhen was usually a man of few words, he had a crush on her. At this moment, she also knew what Xiong Yuan Zhen wanted to say to her.
But Xiong Yuan Zhen opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not say the words "I like you".
He died, dying from excessive blood loss, and his injuries were too severe to heal.
His body was full of wounds, all caused by the lightning wolves' bites. The most terrifying and fatal wound was on his chest, extending from his right shoulder to his navel — this was caused by a bold lightning wolf.
"Big sister, the situation is bad, another bold lightning wolf pack is coming!" The investigative Gu Master shouted, his voice filled with fear.
Xiong Jiao Man's crying stopped, and she put down Xiong Yuan Zhen. She was the group leader, her group members needed her!
The dead were gone, but the living still had to face this cruel world.
"This group of damned wolf pups, there's no end to them!" Xiong Jiao Man cursed fiercely. Her body was hot, her face was beautiful, and her vulgarities had a unique charm.
Listening to her words, the others couldn't help but feel at peace.
Xiong Jiao Man cursed as she observed.
The result of her observation made her feel discouraged. She could kill one bold lightning wolf pack, and if there were two, she could kill her way out. But now there were four bold lightning wolf packs, and the most sensible method was to retreat into the valley behind them, and activate the Signal Gu, waiting for reinforcements.
"Retreat into the valley." Xiong Jiao Man shouted as she mobilized the two giant bears to bring up the rear.
These two giant bears had been raised by her to be fat and healthy. One brown, one black, their fur smooth and shiny, but their bodies were full of wounds.
When Xiong Jiao Man's group of seven successfully retreated into the valley, only one of the two giant bears was left. The black one had killed tens of lightning wolves, and was finally exhausted, and was drowned by the lightning wolf pack.
A Gu worm shot out from the bear's corpse, and returned to Xiong Jiao Man's hands.
This was the Bear Enslavement Gu.
It could be planted on a bear, and allow the Gu Master to control the giant bear.
Of course, this type of bear could only be an ordinary beast. The Bear Enslavement Gu was only a Rank two Gu worm, and could not enslave a bear king.
If it could enslave a bear king, it would be strong. Because a bear king, even the lowest hundred beast king, would have hundreds of wild bears as subordinates.
If a Gu Master could enslave a beast king, it would mean that they have a beast group to control.
"Now we just have to wait for reinforcements. But I hope they can come soon! "Xiong Jiao Man breathed heavily, sighing.
They retreated into the valley, and their defensive area was greatly reduced, and the pressure from the wolf pack immediately decreased. But they also lost their path of retreat, and the blood and continuous battles would attract more and more wolf packs.
Thus, the crisis was not over.
"Hey." Right at this moment, a voice came from the cliff above them.
Everyone quickly looked up, and saw a young man standing above.
"It's him …"
"Guyue Fang Yuan!"
The seven Gu Masters of Xiong village were first roused, and then their faces showed a complex expression. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
