Hearing Iron Head Monk’s words.
Neither Zhao Shi nor Lu Yidao made any comnt, rely nodding noncommittally.
To them, the idea of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old Innate Martial King—this kind of rumor was simply unbelievable and they had no inclination to believe it.
After all, they were already in their forties or fifties and had been cultivating for decades, yet their cultivation level barely reached Hidden Energy.
If such a young Innate Martial King appeared, how would they even face themselves? How could they save face?
Ye Fei, standing to the side, rely smiled faintly.
They were busy discussing Ye Fei, yet they didn’t realize that Yang Ye Fei himself was right before them—what short-sighted fools!
If Ye Fei’s true identity were revealed, just what sort of expressions would they wear?
After chatting for a while, the topic veered back to the Martial Arts Conference.
However, all three of them were rather tight-lipped, and despite circling around the topic for a long ti, no substantial information erged. Lu Yidao furrowed his brow first, and looking at Ye Fei, casually asked, "Brother Ye, is it? What are you looking to exchange for at this Martial Arts Conference?"
"Naturally, for what I need to cultivate," Ye Fei replied with a slight smile.
What you need to cultivate? Isn’t that the sa for everyone!
Lu Yidao rolled his eyes in exasperation, feeling like talking to Ye Fei was entirely fruitless. Yet, at that very mont, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Shi’s body subtly swaying, sparking suspicion within him.
"Why does Zhao Shi seem suddenly nervous? Could it be he’s afraid I’ll uncover what this kid is carrying with him?"
Thinking this, Lu Yidao grew increasingly certain of his speculation!
With his understanding of Zhao Shi, he knew full well that despite his na suggesting honesty, Zhao Shi was actually exceedingly shrewd and worldly-wise!
Put plainly, Zhao Shi only interacted with people who were useful to him, never forming any kind of friendship based on sentint or age difference!
Unless the young man before them—Ye Fei—had sothing Zhao Shi desperately needed. Furthermore, given the Shangguan Family’s strict command that no disturbances occur during dayti at the Martial Arts Conference, Zhao Shi had likely feigned camaraderie to travel alongside Ye Fei, all for the sake of Ye Fei’s possessions!
Once Lu Yidao sorted out his thoughts, he couldn’t help but chuckle and imdiately asked Ye Fei with a sly grin, "Brother Ye, there are plenty of top-notch masters at this Martial Arts Conference. If what you’re trading is an average item, you won’t be able to get much from it. So, what are you planning to exchange this ti, Brother Ye?"
"Pills," Ye Fei replied with a smile.
Given Ye Fei’s intelligence, how could he not see through Lu Yidao’s motives.
However, Ye Fei’s purpose at the Martial Arts Conference was always to exchange resources and accelerate his cultivation.
He had no intention of waiting several days for the main trading session to begin. After all, for Ye Fei, ti was as precious as life itself.
Thus, since Lu Yidao had asked, Ye Fei had no qualms about stating it outright.
As long as the Vitality Pill ca to light, he was sure the things he needed would naturally co to him.
"Pills?"
Hearing Ye Fei’s reply, a flash of light unmistakably flickered in Lu Yidao’s eyes, while Zhao Shi instantly clenched his teeth.
But in their current setting, Zhao Shi was utterly helpless to prevent Ye Fei from speaking. Otherwise, alarming the Shangguan Family’s guards would be tantamount to seeking his own death!
Seeing Zhao Shi’s reaction, Lu Yidao beca even more convinced and imdiately chuckled, "Brother Ye, could you let see your pills? If they’re indeed extraordinary, feel free to na your terms!"
"Very well!"
Ye Fei smoothly reached into his pocket and pulled out a small vial containing the Vitality Pill.
As the vial’s lid remained sealed, the pill’s fragrance did not yet perate the air. However, Ye Fei’s actions nevertheless drew the attention of many people around him.
Their gazes, however, were tinged with mockery and ridicule.
Lu Yidao and the others’ conversation had not been concealed, so many bystanders had overheard every word clearly.
The crowd knew that Lu Yidao and company were deliberately setting Ye Fei up.
After all, in the many years the Martial Arts Conference had been held, there were countless tales of inexperienced young cultivators being cruelly conned due to their lack of worldly experience!
This ti, it was simply Ye Fei’s turn.
Even so, the onlookers didn’t seem intent on ddling.
Firstly, because Ye Fei was already "claid" as Zhao Shi and Lu Yidao’s prey, others would find it inappropriate to intervene.
Secondly, the crowd didn’t fully understand the backstory and thus couldn’t determine the quality of the pills Ye Fei possessed.
Judging by Ye Fei’s youth, they naturally assud the pills weren’t anything special.
After all, in their view, who wouldn’t treasure valuable items with the utmost care?
How could soone like Ye Fei nonchalantly store it in a small vial and casually carry it in his pocket?
Even Lu Yidao shared a similar sentint to the crowd and promptly asked, "Brother Ye, is this the pill you’re talking about? What grade is it? Mid-grade?"
"It should be top-grade," Ye Fei replied with a smile.
Though the Vitality Pill held little real value to Ye Fei now—even to the point of being unnecessary—it was nevertheless crafted using the Soul-controlling Demon’s exclusive Void Alchemy Technique.
Its grade was undoubtedly top-grade!
"What? Top-grade? Brother Ye, surely you jest!"
Lu Yidao furrowed his brows in disdain upon hearing Ye Fei’s claim.
Even though he had witnessed Zhao Shi’s obvious apprehension, he still refused to believe that what Ye Fei held could be a top-grade pill!
After all, top-grade pills were exceedingly rare, sothing only an Alchemy Grandmaster could produce!
Considering Ye Fei’s age, Lu Yidao instantly dismissed the idea that Ye Fei could be an Alchemy Grandmaster himself. As for the possibility of soone backing Ye Fei, Lu Yidao similarly dismissed it without hesitation.
The status of an Alchemy Grandmaster was exceptionally revered; there were only a handful scattered throughout China!
If Ye Fei were truly supported by an Alchemy Grandmaster, why would he even need to attend the Martial Arts Conference?
The surrounding crowd shared Lu Yidao’s skepticism, treating Ye Fei’s claim as a re joke.
So even shook their heads, laughing, "Young people these days! Always so full of boastful talk. Top-grade pill? Would a re child even possess such a thing?"
"Indeed, having a mid-grade pill would already be impressive!"
"Haha, maybe he just got lucky sowhere and stumbled upon a mid-grade pill out of sheer chance."
Only Zhao Shi subtly exhaled a breath of relief upon hearing the crowd’s remarks.
He had caught wind of the Vitality Pill’s potent aroma before—if it wasn’t top-grade, it was certainly close!
Therefore, in his opinion, it was better that no one believed Ye Fei. Otherwise, where would his opportunity lie!
But at that exact mont, Ye Fei rely smiled faintly and uncapped the vial.
In an instant, the room was flooded with a rich dicinal fragrance, abruptly silencing the previously noisy atmosphere.
The crowd didn’t just stare—they fixed their gazes intently on the small vial in Ye Fei’s hand, rendered speechless by the shock!
"What... what kind of fragrance is this? It’s so potent! I feel like just slling it has loosened my realm!"
"Such powerful efficacy! Could it really be a top-grade pill?"
"Where is it? I want to trade for it! I want it!"
In monts, the entire Shangguan Family hall erupted with fervor, all because of Ye Fei’s Vitality Pill...
