"Phew!"
Even Old Man Wu couldn't help but gasp.
He looked up and gave Yi Feng a meaningful glance. In his eyes, Yi Feng taking out the Fire Pearl was like responding to his doubts.
It was as if saying, I can easily take out a Fire Pearl, but what about you?
Yi Feng noticed Old Man Wu's gaze and nodded at him with a smile, showing a conciliatory attitude. After all, he had effortlessly won this game of chess.
Sure enough.
Seeing this, Old Man Wu was certain Yi Feng was just as he had imagined.
He looked at the chessboard. Yes, he had lost at chess, but that was not what he cared about. The two of them had risen above the chess game to another level of competition.
He had to admit, he had never expected Yi Feng to be able to produce a Fire Pearl.
The Fire Pearl's value was higher than he could have imagined.
Matching its value were the Water Pearl, Earth Pearl, Metal Pearl, and Wood Pearl. Together, these five pearls could form the Great Infinite Pearl, instantly transforming an ordinary mortal who had never cultivated into a saint.
Legend had it that a supreme master in the North Sea had gathered the other four pearls, only lacking the Fire Pearl.
Yet unexpectedly, this Fire Pearl was here...
If he took this pearl to exchange with that master who happened to lack only the Fire Pearl, he could almost exchange it for treasures countless times the value of this pearl.
But he didn't.
Why?
With his cultivation level, it was unlikely he didn't know about this.
That meant that knowing he could exchange the Fire Pearl for something of much greater value, he chose not to make the exchange. This showed that he didn't actually need things dozens of times more valuable than the Fire Pearl that much.
He might even look down on them...
This person's cultivation is unfathomable, and his schemes are even more formidable than I imagined!
Old Man Wu looked at Yi Feng and made this judgment in his heart.
It seemed like he had only taken out a Fire Pearl, but the value it represented was far more than just one Fire Pearl!
That meant if he wanted to gain the upper hand in this contest, he would have to take out a treasure several times more valuable than the Fire Pearl.
No wonder, no wonder he was so confident.
However...
You seem to have underestimated me too!
A sharp gleam flashed in Old Man Wu's eagle eyes. He really did have such an item.
"Brother Yi, take a look at this for me," he said. With a wave of his hand, a seven-toothed rake appeared.
Seeing the rake that had suddenly materialized in his hand, Yi Feng was unsurprised. He figured the old man had just come back from farming in the fields and happened to have it with him.
The rake was probably not very functional anymore. Knowing he did some ironwork on the side, the old man had called him over to take a look. Since he'd asked, Yi Feng casually took it and examined it closely.
Seeing Yi Feng's studying expression, Old Man Wu smiled smugly.
This seven-toothed holy rake looked dull and lackluster with no highlights, but it was actually a divine artifact passed down from ancient times. It had the grade of a holy relic. Even though it was damaged, if spirit energy was used to activate it, it could still exert one-tenth of the power of a holy relic.
A holy relic.
The stuff of legends.
Even slightly damaged, its value was in no way comparable to a mere Fire Pearl.
And Yi Feng, with his cultivation level, would surely be able to discern this.
So at this moment, he could already envision Yi Feng's shocked expression when his jaw dropped.
To be fair, he had spent his entire life's savings and nearly lost half his life to obtain this seven-toothed holy rake. So no matter how astonished Yi Feng was next, it would be well deserved.
g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
