"Hurry up! Hurry up! All the patrons here are Thunder Tribulation Experts. What are you few Soul Severing cultivators doing here? Do you think you can afford Royal Grade Spirit Pills? Can you produce the materials to refine Royal Grade Spirit Pills?"
A Fire Cloud Sect disciple, seeing Zheng Yi and the others lingering in front of the Royal Grade Spirit Pill counter, looked impatient and issued an eviction order to them.
If Zheng Yi and the others were Thunder Tribulation Experts, that Fire Cloud Sect disciple would have been very enthusiastic. However, to him, Soul Severing Martial Artists were re ants, so he had no reason to be polite and directly drove them away.
"We’re here to exchange for King Grade Spirit Pills..."
Zheng Yi said with a forced smile.
The Royal Grade Spirit Pills were beyond their reach both financially and in material terms, so they had to settle for less.
Though the Fire Cloud Sect disciple was only a Core Disciple, his cultivation level was in the Thunder Tribulation Realm, giving him the confidence to look down on Zheng Yi. Zheng Yi did not dare to offend him.
Yang i and Fang Yun both darkened in expression, knowing that their trip to Red Maple City would not yield any Royal Grade Spirit Pills.
Zheng Yi, using up all his cultivation resources, exchanged for a few bottles of mid-grade King Pill and handed them to Fang Yun, smiling bitterly, "Let’s treat Brother Fang’s injuries first, and worry about other matters later!"
Yang i sighed, "That’s all we can do. Let’s head back!"
As the three of them were about to leave, a few Thunder Tribulation Experts hurriedly ca in from outside the shop, the leader being a burly, bearded man with a second-level Thunder Tribulation Realm.
"Lei Zheng, why are you here?"
A Fire Cloud Sect disciple, seeing the bearded man, quickly stood up and asked with a smile.
The man called Lei Zheng replied, "I’m here on so business, just happened to pass by and thought I’d co in for a look... Hehe, Brother Li, your Fire Cloud Sect’s business hasn’t been very good lately, has it?"
Lei Zheng and the Fire Cloud Sect disciple had known each other for years and were close friends. He ca here this ti to see if there was anything noteworthy.
This Lei Zheng was the Thunder Tribulation Expert Fang Bai had t at the Arena in Red Maple City.
Recently, Lei Zheng had done quite a few things for Fang Bai and had received many benefits from Fang Bai.
After Fang Bai entrusted Lei Zheng and Yun Yan to issue a bounty order for searching relatives, Lei Zheng was energized, running around the city every day with a gang of friends, inquiring about relevant information.
If he could find one or two of Fang Bai’s relatives or friends listed in the bounty, he could not only gain benefits from Fang Bai but also earn his gratitude. It was a win-win situation, so Lei Zheng was full of enthusiasm, using his connections to help.
In fact, it wasn’t just Lei Zheng. Many powerful individuals with connections in Red Maple City had already started moving, all wanting to be the first to find Fang Bai’s relatives or friends, fearing they’d fall behind.
Even so disciples of the Fire Cloud Sect, tempted by the generous bounty promised by Fang Bai, secretly contacted external powerhouses, using the vast network of the Fire Cloud Sect to search around, hoping to get a share of the rewards.
The Fire Cloud Sect disciple Lei Zheng called "Brother Li" was nad Li Mao. He had kept in touch with Lei Zheng, and they were currently working together to find Fang Bai’s relatives and friends.
"You three, aren’t you leaving quickly? Don’t stand here getting in the way!"
Seeing that Zheng Yi and the others had not yet left, Li Mao said with a stern face.
Zheng Yi and the others did not dare to stay and turned to leave imdiately.
As Lei Zheng entered the shop earlier, he glanced at Yang i and Fang Yun, thinking they looked sowhat familiar. It wasn’t until they turned to leave that a light bulb went off in his head. He rembered the description of the facial features of Fang Bai’s relatives and friends from the bounty order; these two perfectly matched.
In excitent, his heart raced, and he called out, "Wait, you three!"
Zheng Yi, Yang i, and Fang Yun stopped in their tracks and turned around, looking at Lei Zheng approaching with so confusion, feeling a bit tense.
Lei Zheng, being at the second level of the Thunder Tribulation Realm, was like an insurmountable mountain in their eyes, a power that could easily crush them. Now that such a powerhouse called out to them, they wondered what his intentions were.
"I am Lei Zheng. May I ask your nas?"
Lei Zheng stopped in front of Yang i and Fang Yun, clasped his hands in a fist-salute, slightly bowed, and asked with a smile.
A dignified second-level Thunder Tribulation Expert speaking so humbly to them, even with a smile, left Yang i and Fang Yun sowhat at a loss.
Even Lei Zheng’s friend Li Mao was bewildered, not understanding what had gotten into Lei Zheng.
"Junior Yang i."
"Junior Fang Yun."
Seeing that Lei Zheng seed to have no hostility but rather a friendly deanor, Yang i and Fang Yun quickly responded.
Although Lei Zheng was about the sa age as Yang i, his cultivation was far superior, so it was only natural for Yang i to address herself as a junior.
As for Fang Yun, being much younger than Lei Zheng and having a significantly lower cultivation level, she also naturally addressed herself as a junior.
Upon hearing the nas "Yang i" and "Fang Yun," Lei Zheng’s mind buzzed, and he was instantly enveloped in happiness, feeling ecstatic.
Lei Zheng clearly rembered that the bounty order issued by the Senior Fang, Fang Bai, ntioned that his mother and sister were nad Yang i and Fang Yun.
Moreover, the facial features of these two won in front of him closely matched those described in the bounty. If they were indeed the ones he was looking for, he could claim two rewards and gain a significant favor from Senior Fang.
"I don’t deserve such addresses!"
Eager to please and ingratiate himself with Fang Bai, Lei Zheng was convinced these two were Fang Bai’s mother and sister and quickly said, "Please, just call by my na! You can even call Little Lei!"
Yang i and Fang Yun exchanged puzzled glances, not knowing why this powerhouse had transford from initially dismissive to now overwhelmingly enthusiastic.
"Do you know Fang Bai, Senior Fang?"
To finally confirm Yang i and Fang Yun’s identities and avoid any mistakes, Lei Zheng asked softly.
Upon hearing the words "Fang Bai," Yang i was stunned.
However, Fang Yun cried out, "You... Brother Lei Zheng, do you know my younger brother?"
Hearing Fang Yun’s words, Lei Zheng was overwheld with excitent, looked up, and laughed heartily, saying, "Know him! Of course, I know him! Senior Fang and I... are very good friends!"
"Fang Bai... my son, where is he right now?"
Yang i snapped out of her daze when she heard news about her son, and her eyes imdiately turned red. If she hadn’t been holding her unconscious husband, Fang Gang, she might have already rushed forward to grab Lei Zheng’s shoulders and loudly demanded answers.
Zheng Yi previously thought Fang Gang and his wife only had a daughter, Fang Yun. Now he learned they also had a son nad Fang Bai. And judging by Lei Zheng’s tone, their son seed to be quite extraordinary. While surprised, Zheng Yi also thought it was a good thing.
