Chapter 1348: Chapter 1448: Inertial Thinking

This time, even Ye Fei couldn’t quite tell whether this beautiful, dominant senior aunt was teasing him or genuinely interested, because there was no sign of the previous distance or teasing in her eyes—instead, there was a hint of admiration.

But Ye Fei didn’t need to figure it out. He half-joked, “That’s okay. For beauties like Senior Aunt Lianhua and Senior Aunt Musnow, I’m open to any opportunity. As for Xueqi, I can handle her just fine. So, are the two of you considering it?”

“Ugh! Why are you two dragging me into this?” He Musnow’s face turned bright red. Ye Fei’s words involuntarily brought back all the memories from last night.

Ye Lianhua was also starting to feel a bit overwhelmed by Ye Fei’s brazenness.

Her face turned a little red, and she didn’t dare to continue. But she didn’t want to back down either.

So, right in front of Ye Fei, she took out a storage ring and handed it to He Musnow, saying, “Junior sister, there are a million spirit stones in here. It should be enough for both of our materials. Take it first.”

He Musnow didn’t hesitate to accept it.

Since she was in charge of all the business in Central City, Ye Lianhua was essentially the financial minister of the entire Cuiyan Sect.

And helping a Great Perfection cultivator enhance their strength was a matter for the entire sect, so it was only right to use the funds from here.

After giving the ring to He Musnow, Ye Lianhua turned to Ye Fei and asked with a teasing smile, “Young nephew, do you need one too?”

Faced with the teasing look from his senior aunt, Ye Fei’s sense of masculinity instantly flared up. He shook his head and said, “No, I don’t need one. I’m not buying anything. I don’t need money.”

As soon as he said that, Ye Fei felt like his heart was bleeding.

That was a generous offer from the wealthy senior aunt.

Even if it wasn’t as much as what she gave to He Musnow, it should be at least a tenth of it, right?

That’s a hundred thousand spirit stones! And he knew the purchasing power of spirit stones.

A bottle of ten pills that could quickly boost the cultivation of a Foundation Establishment cultivator only cost ten spirit stones, and those for the Soul Infant stage were only a hundred or so.

With a hundred thousand spirit stones, he could buy so much! Most importantly, these pills could also help warriors enhance their strength.

On Earth, most of the women were at these two cultivation levels. With these pills and dual cultivation with him, wouldn’t their progress be even faster?

And even if he didn’t buy pills, spirit stones could directly provide spiritual energy.

Even cultivators in the True Emptiness Realm needed this stuff to increase their cultivation energy. For Earth, where spiritual energy was scarce, it was a strategic resource.

Ye Fei, who had just refused at least a hundred thousand spirit stones for the sake of his pride, was still feeling a bit downcast after they left the Cuiyan Sect’s residence and got back to the main street.

Ye Fei had always been seen as incredibly capable, with no apparent flaws other than being a bit of a ladies’ man.

When people were around him, they couldn’t help but feel a mix of trust, admiration, and a bit of pressure. But this slightly childish behavior of his now made He Musnow feel that he was even more approachable and adorable.

“Junior nephew,” He Musnow called Ye Fei, mimicking Ye Lianhua’s tone, and laughed, “Are you regretting it? Don’t worry. I have some personal savings. How about you take some first?”

“No way!” Ye Fei shook his head firmly. “A man has to rely on himself!”

“Alright, my little man, what are you planning to…” He Musnow teased, mimicking Ye Lianhua, but she blushed furiously halfway through her sentence and couldn’t continue because of a certain word.

Ye Fei, however, seemed not to notice, and said resolutely, “Worst comes to worst, I’ll just sell one set of the Ten-Thousand-Calamity Stone equipment. After all, we have plenty of it.”

Seeing that Ye Fei didn’t notice her slip of the tongue, He Musnow breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt a pang of disappointment deep down. She gathered her thoughts and said, “But what if it falls into the hands of our enemies?”

“Yeah, that’s what I’m worried about too, which is why I can’t make up my mind,” Ye Fei said with a troubled expression.

He Musnow naturally didn’t want these exclusive Cuiyan Sect equipments to spread around, but seeing Ye Fei’s distressed look, she felt a bit heartbroken.

She thought for a moment and said, “You could sell just one piece. That way, it wouldn’t have a significant impact.”

Ye Fei’s eyes lit up. He took a step forward, grabbed the beautiful senior aunt, and hugged her tightly, planting a kiss on her pretty cheek. He laughed heartily, “Right! Why didn’t I think of that? You’re so smart, Senior Aunt!”

“What are you doing?” He Musnow was startled. She struggled and looked around.

Fortunately, they were on the premises of the Cuiyan Sect’s office, with no shops or people around. She breathed a sigh of relief but still scolded with a red face, “Are you crazy? What if someone sees us?”

Ye Fei didn’t show any embarrassment at all. He chuckled and said, “So, Senior Aunt means it’s okay as long as no one sees us?”

“You…” He Musnow was both embarrassed and furious. She tried to put on a stern face and said, “I’m your senior aunt. If you keep acting so improperly, I’ll be mad at you!”

Ye Fei, however, was unafraid. He still laughed and said, “You are my senior aunt, but you just said I’m your man.”

“That was a slip of the tongue, just a slip!” He Musnow emphasized, then quickly turned and walked away, muttering, “I’m not talking to you anymore!”

“Senior Aunt, your man is going to sell something first. See you later!” Ye Fei shouted, which made He Musnow cover her ears and run away as fast as she could.

After the beautiful senior aunt left, Ye Fei didn’t follow her immediately. Instead, he took out a chest plate made of Ten-Thousand-Calamity Stone, split it in half with his great sword, and then cut it into a palm-sized heart guard.

He stopped there because even just a chest plate could be very useful in the wrong hands, while a heart guard was much less risky and still valuable.

The reason Ye Fei hadn’t thought of selling the equipment piece by piece before wasn’t because he had become less clever in the True Emptiness Realm. It was because, from the beginning, he hadn’t considered it a valuable item.

Even after making over a thousand sets specifically for the Cuiyan Sect, his mindset hadn’t changed. Subconsciously, he believed that only a complete set could be of any use.

It wasn’t until He Musnow reminded him that Ye Fei suddenly realized that although these items were common in the Cuiyan Sect, they were still unimaginable treasures to everyone else in the True Emptiness Realm.

Even a small heart guard was incredibly valuable, as evidenced by the reaction of his beautiful master when she first saw the heart guard.
