The ruins were in chaos, filled with surging crowds and deafening noise. The area around him was extremely noisy, with a cacophony of sounds blending together, making everyone’s ears ring and feel numb.
Even so, every face was filled with immense excitement, even overwhelming emotion.
Even so, the soldier’s voice was still loud enough to make the vendor frown.
The vendor just nodded, agreeing to sell the item to Lu Yu.
Moreover, he had already reached out his hand toward the bargaining warrior to take the item back.
At this moment, the other party actually spoke up again to agree with the quote.
The warrior, who had been haggling all along, suddenly started rummaging through his storage bead, then took out a large number of Spirit Star Beads to trade with the stall owner.
The vendor said angrily, “Hey you, is this how you act? I told you half to death that I don’t negotiate prices, and you didn’t buy it. Now that I’ve agreed to sell it to someone else, you want to pay again. What’s that all about?”
The soldier curled his lip and said, “What’s so bad about it? I bought the item, and I didn’t short you a single penny. If you haven’t lost anything, where’s the problem?”
As he spoke, the soldier tightened his grip on the item in his hand and deliberately cast a provocative glance at Lu Yu, saying, “Friend, when it comes to buying something, there should always be a rule of first come, first served, right?”
The vendor became even more furious: “I already said from the beginning that I won’t sell, yet you kept holding the item and haggling anyway. Now someone else wants it, and you suddenly come to pay. Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble?”
“I’ve already paid for the money and bought the item; how come I’m still looking for trouble?” the soldier smiled and said, “Friend, I’ve already bought this item.”
As he spoke, the warrior threw down a large pile of storage pearls and said, “I don’t have enough Grade 1 Star Spirit Stones, so I’ll use some Grade 9 Star Spirit Stones to make up the difference.”
The soldier didn’t even wait for the vendor’s response and tried to take the items and leave.
“Stop right there,” the vendor said, stepping forward and grabbing the item from the soldier’s hand. “I’ve already agreed to sell this to that other customer. If you’re interested, you can buy something else, but don’t even think about this one.”
The warrior squinted his eyes and said, “Agreed? I don’t recall hearing that. All I heard was him saying, ‘I want it.’ But I never heard you say yes. Boss, don’t you have any professional ethics? How can you take back something you’ve already sold?”
The vendor was somewhat angry. The person in front of him was practically pestering him relentlessly, with a stubborn attitude that made him so annoyed he felt like punching someone.
“Damn it, it’s my stuff, and what business is it of yours who I want to sell it to?” The vendor’s eyes flared with anger as he coldly said, “Take your money and go. Not a single item of mine will be sold to you anymore.”
The vendor was really impatient now, handing the item to Lu Yu and saying, “Friend, pay now and it’s yours.”
Lu Yu nodded and said, “Okay.”
Lu Yu was very straightforward. He quickly counted out the Blue Planet Souls and Evolution Liquids and handed them to the stall owner. As for the ten billion star spirit stones, he directly used level-nine star spirit stones to replace them, which could save time on the transaction.
The stall owner watched Lu Yu take out items from the void and couldn’t help but light up with excitement. He said, “Friend, this should be a storage space ability!”
The stall owner had vaguely heard that this storage space was extremely convenient and remarkably spacious.
The only problem is that it’s too rare.
Apart from a few individuals in the Demon Hunting Plains who were rewarded for breaking records, it seems that only during the battle in the Crimson Flame Territory did many people receive rewards of storage space.
That battle was truly a clash of powers; only those who were extraordinary could ultimately obtain the storage space.
This person is very young but already has a storage space. Either he has broken records, or his strength is already remarkably impressive.
The vendor squinted for a long time, but finally could not determine which category this person belonged to.
He gave up.
After completing the transaction, Lu Yu briefly examined the items and then chose to leave.
The bargaining warrior kept staring at Lu Yu until he disappeared into the crowd. Only then did he turn to the vendor, fixing him with a cold gaze. “Friend,” he said in a chilling tone, “do you have any idea how much you’ve cost me? That item was extremely important to me, and you just sold it to someone else.”
“This is my item, and it’s none of your business whom I sell it to,” the stall owner said coldly. “Friend, I appreciate straightforwardness. If you hadn’t haggled, this item would already be yours. Anyone who recognizes its value will agree it’s worth every penny.”
The conversation between the two was drowned out by the surrounding noise.
At this moment, in the direction of the ruins’ entrance, a group of nearly ten people rushed forward in haste.
“Chen Long, did you manage to buy it?” The leader, sweating profusely, kept rubbing his hands together excitedly. “That item is extremely important; our future depends entirely on it.”
The soldier who was called out immediately replied in an annoyed tone: “Buy what? It’s already been taken by someone else!”
“What?” Upon hearing this, the faces of more than ten people immediately turned uneasy.
“What exactly is going on here?”
Chen Long pointed angrily at the vendor and said, “I was just talking about the price, and this guy refused. He insisted on selling the item to someone else.”
“Who? Who is it?” More than ten people all became furious.
“We dare to snatch things from those with bloodshot eyes.” Dozens of people’s eyes suddenly changed color, the bloody redness was chilling and terrifying.
They looked around, trying to figure out who had bought the item.
Many people felt their hair stand on end, as if a chill were emanating from their very bones.
These people are not ordinary at all.
Blood Eyes—the group of humans who first resorted to cannibalism to survive at the dawn of the apocalypse—became synonymous with demons for a period of time.
Then they fell silent for a period of time.
People thought they had disappeared or gone to remote places where they no longer wished to associate with ordinary people.
But when they saw those pairs of eyes, they were all startled.
The bloodshot eyes returned.
The killing intent and the chilling coldness emanating from these people had become even more intense.
“I’ve seen that man before. Good heavens, is he the Blood Eye?” Someone in the crowd whispered in low tones. The leader of the Blood Eye group, his voice trembling, replied, “He’s terrifying. Our organization has hired him for several operations before. I never expected he would actually be the Blood Eye!”
One of the newly arrived dozen or so Blood Eyes was particularly strong, standing out as their leader.
His name is Zuo Haiyan, a madman who, once engaged in battle, fights with the ferocity of a wild beast.
Many teams had invited this person to join before forming their groups, because aside from his craziness, his physical strength was truly terrifying.
He has a defense power of seven hundred, yet he can block attacks from third-stage humanoid creatures.
Not long ago, this person saw him leading a team of dozens to surround and kill seven two-stage black wolves and dozens of one-stage black wolves.
Lu Haiyan alone killed a fourth-stage black wolf. At this time, anyone capable of fighting a fourth-stage humanoid alone was certainly no weakling.
He had heard of this name before.
The vendor could not help but shrink his head, his face turning deathly pale.
Chen Long snarled with a sinister grin, “Now you’re scared, huh? Damn it, earlier I told you to sell, but you refused. What’s the use of being scared now?”
“Alright, stop talking to him. You must have seen that man before. Go find him now.” The leader grabbed Chen Long and pulled him into the crowd.
Many people made way, not wanting to get involved with the bloodshot eyes.
Moreover, the Blood Eyes clearly did not want to associate with these people. They walked through the crowd without even glancing at those around them, displaying extreme arrogance.
At this moment, someone in the crowd quickly turned their head and immediately ran towards Lu Yu to kindly inform him.
At this moment, Lu Yu had already walked quite far. Besides this one item that was worth his effort, he hadn’t encountered anything else worth buying.
At times, Lu Yu couldn’t help but sigh bitterly with a wry smile.
It’s not that these things are bad; it’s just that compared to what he already has, they are far inferior.
Holding a half-star artifact in hand, and with the King’s Sacred Bone on his body enhancing his maximum lifespan by six thousand years, how could such a person be comparable to anything else?
Therefore, there were some good things that he couldn’t appreciate, even though they were right in front of him.
Just as he was wandering around, he was suddenly grabbed by a young boy, about sixteen or seventeen years old.
“Uncle, run quickly,” the young boy said anxiously. “Earlier, you took some people’s belongings, and now more than ten of them have come; they’re about to attack.”
A man beside Lu Yu chuckled, “Kid, don’t you know fighting is forbidden here? Even those people wouldn’t dare to start trouble now. With two star weapons hanging above, anyone who causes trouble will be wiped out in an instant.”
“Thank you for the reminder, but I don’t plan to leave here for now. If they want to come, let them come,” Lu Yu said with a smile, handing the boy a piece of starlight candy before continuing to stroll through the crowd.
The youth was only at level eight. He stared blankly at the Starlight Essence in his hand.
Who exactly is this person? They sure are generous with their money.
Xing Hua! This is the most important treasure for humans below the ninth level. This uncle must be really rich to have given you a piece of Xing Hua.
By the time the boy realized what had happened, Lu Yu had already disappeared into the crowd.
Lu Yu wasn’t afraid of those people, but he also didn’t want to be disturbed during this period.
Therefore, Lu Yu crossed over the ruins and walked onto another street.
He could hear someone continuously roaring behind him.
Lu Yu acted as if he had heard nothing at all. He weaved through the crowd, planning to spend three days searching to see if he could find the best items available.
An middle-aged man stood in front of a stall with several young people in their twenties. He shouted loudly, “Evolution Liquid! I have the method for refining Evolution Liquid here. Who wants to buy!”
A young man nearby kept shouting, “Come and have a look, everyone! This is the method we found for refining the evolution liquid.”
These people were energetically shouting to attract customers.
However, no one around stopped; at most, someone would turn their head to glance at the group, then shake their head in disdain and walk away.
A vendor nearby, growing impatient with the group, said, “Hey, could you guys stop shouting? Even if you’re trying to scam people for money, at least come up with a better method. You’re really telling me you haven’t even tricked anyone before?”
“Haha, Let’s try a different approach. If you really had a method to refine Evolution Liquid, you wouldn’t be selling it here. If you could refine it yourself, within a year your financial power wouldn’t be a bit weaker than Lu Yu’s from Fanggang.”
A group of people were all talking at once, which made several young people’s faces turn red.
One person shouted loudly, “Seriously, we really do sell the refining method. It’s just that it’s too complicated and requires a large amount of rare materials, which is why we can’t afford to refine it ourselves.”
One person said, “Come on, even if you really need money, what’s there to worry about as long as you still have the recipe?”
Some people laughed mockingly, not believing the words of these few people at all.
At this moment, Lu Yu walked up to these people and asked, “What was the refining method you mentioned earlier? How do you plan to sell it?”
