“Humph! It’s not that easy to help this kid buy a Spirit Weapon and then help the Asura Palace grab some resources at the Desolate Ancient World. I had a look around. This Dragon Spirit Spear is the only top-grade Spirit Weapon here.” Jian Xing laughed and said, “if you have the ability, then offer a higher price, or else I will take it. My cousin, Jian Kuang, is in the late Energy Burst Realm. He is also good with the spear. With this Dragon Spirit Spear, he can shine at the Desolate Ancient World. He might even be noticed by the elders of the Main Peak.”
Hearing this, Jian Kuang held his hands across his chest, and said with a face full of pride, “I heard the Asura Palace has not participated in the Desolate Ancient World trials in the last 50 years. It was rare for them to accept a disciple this year. As Ye Mo is only in the early Heaven’s Gate Realm, he will just be a bystander if he goes to the trials.” Jian Kuang walked over to Ye Mo and coldly said, “You’re just a martial artist in the late Heaven’s Gate Realm after all.”
Ye Mo responded icily, “if I possessed the Dragon Spirit Spear, then I could defeat you.”
“That’s right Ye Mo. If you had the Dragon Spirit Spear, you could defeat him after one month of training,” Miao Miao immediately shouted. She waved her hands and the price of the Dragon Spirit Spear changed to 30,000 Merits.
“Unfortunately, you won’t get the opportunity,” said Jian Xing as he increased the price to 35,000 Merits.
“What? You increased it to 35,000 Merits?” Ye Mo asked while pretending to be surprised.
He looked at Miao Miao begging, “Sister, you must buy this Dragon Spirit Spear for me.”
Miao Miao thought Ye Mo really wanted this Spirit Weapon. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mao Mao has 20,000 Merits. Wait for me to find him. The Asura Palace won’t lose to anyone.” As she said this, Miao Miao waved her slim fingers. The Dragon Spirit Spear’s price changed to 40,000.
“Ha Ha, 50,000. Do you need to find another Asura Palace disciple to collect more Merits?” Jian Xing said as he waved his fingers again with arrogance. The Dragon Spirit Pear’s price changed to 50,000 Merits.
“How could he have so many Merits?” Miao Miao anxiously asked. She was doubtful Jian Xing could take out that many merits at once as he was just an average disciple.
“Sister Miao Miao, I think this Brother is determined to win the Dragon Spirit Spear. Let’s stop arguing with him over it. I’ll settle for the next best thing, a mid-grade Spirit Weapon,” Ye Mo said as he put his arms around Miao Miao, signaling her to leave.
“But!” Miao Miao was still hesitating. Top-grade Spirit Weapons were much stronger than mid-grade Spirit Weapons. Ye Mo had already lost in terms of his realm. He couldn’t lose in weapons too.
“Miao Miao, if I bought this weapon, what do you think Ye Mo’s chances are at competing for the resources at the Desolate Ancient World?” Provoked Jian Xing, as he purposely irritated Miao Miao.
“Humph!” Miao Miao snorted coldly, as she waved her fingers again. The price became 55,000 Merits. However, just as the price changed, Jian Xing immediately increased the price to 60,000 Merits. Going back and forth, Jian Xing then increased the price to 80,000 Merits.
Watching this scene, Ye Mo could not help but frown. Miao Miao had a straightforward character and found it difficult to accept defeat. As the Asura Palace had not accepted a disciple in 50 years, of course they would pay extra attention to the Desolate Ancient World trials.
“This Jian Xing is taking advantage of Miao Miao’s temperament. He wants to cheat Sister of her Merits”. Thinking this, Ye Mo immediately stopped Miao Miao and said, “Sister Miao Miao, I need to tell you something.”
“What is it? Don’t worry, the Asura Palace won’t let anyone take this Dragon Spirit Spear,” said Miao Miao energetically.
Ye Mo pulled Miao Miao to the side and told her softly, “Sister Miao Miao, this weapon I have on my back is not an average weapon. It is a Bejeweled Weapon. It only looks normal because the weapon’s spirit was damaged.”
“What? A Bejeweled Weapon?” Miao Miao said with surprise. Then she angrily asked, “why did you ask me to help you buy a Spirit Weapon then?”
“I’m pretty sure I was always telling you not to buy,” Ye Mo said with a bitter smile.
“This...” Miao Miao looked embarrassed, realising that what Ye Mo said was right.
“I’m afraid the Asura Palace won’t have 80,000 Merits even if we combined all of the Brothers’ and Sisters’ Merit Cards. This weapon, I’ll let you have it.” Miao Miao laughed. She then reminded Jian Xing, “if you don’t hand over 80,000 Merits, then you won’t be able to leave the Spirit Treasure Hall.”
“What? You don’t want it anymore?” Jian Xing asked in surprise. His face changed color as he said, “you should know that without a top-grade Spirit Weapon, Ye Mo would have no hope in fighting for resources at the Desolate Ancient World.”
“Ye Mo, we should go. Let’s look for other weapons. To spend 80,000 Merits on a top-grade Spirit Weapon, I’m afraid the Asura Palace doesn’t have such deep pockets,” Miao Miao said as she put her arm around Ye Mo’s shoulder, swaying as they left. Miao Miao was half a body shorter than Ye Mo, so both of their postures looked quite strange. However, the more they were like this, the more furious Jian Xing became.
“Cousin, you should have stopped at 75,000 Merits,” said Jian Kuang, his face looking ashen. Blue veins began popping from anger.
“Impossible, I know Miao Miao’s character. Last time, she spent 10 times the amount to compete for a rank four pill. How come she held back this time?” Jian Xing said in surprise.
“It must be that Ye Mo. He said something to her,” Jian Kuang said without any restraint.
“If she’s that easily convinced, then she’s not the Miao Miao I know,” Jian Xing said as his face darkened.
“Cousin, what do we do with this weapon? I think we should let it go. A mid-grade Magic Weapon spear is enough. We don’t need to spend 80,000 Merits,” Jian Kuang said.
“If we don’t exchange for this Dragon Spirit Spear then it would be impossible for me to leave the Spirit Treasure Hall. This place itself is a top-grade weapon. If I leave, it will attack me. Go call the other disciples over. See if they can put together 80,000 Merits for me,” Jian Xing said as he gritted his teeth.
“Yes!” Jian Kuang left the Spirit Treasure Hall.
“Ye Mo, I won’t let it go like this. I will kill you at the Desolate Ancient World.”
After a short while, Jian Kuang brought more than ten Heavenly Palace’s disciples with him to the Spirit Treasure Hall. They were able to put together 80,000 Merits, taking the Dragon Spirit Spear.
Watching this group of more than 10 disciples walk out of the Spirit Treasure Hall, Mia Miao held her stomach as she laughed on the ground.
“Haha, did you see Jian Xing’s face? It was as red as a monkey’s butt,” Miao Miao said while laughing.
“Hehe.” Ye Mo smiled, then turned his gaze to one side. He saw a transparent bottle filled with black liquid. The energy fluctuations the bottle emitted surprised Ye Mo.
The Magical Treasures surrounding this bottle of fluid were all repelled because it emitted powerful and overbearing fluctuations.
Although Ye Mo did not approach it, he could, however, still feel the overbearing energy emitting from this bottle.
Ye Mo slowly walked over, staring at the bottle of liquid.
“The Blood of Asura!”
