"Sir, what is this?"
The two women cast him puzzled looks.
"Fighting the Landlord!"
"This...this is Fighting the Landlord?"
"What else?"
The two women's delicate bodies shuddered.
They suddenly froze on the spot, with incredulous expressions on their faces.
After reacting, they were so embarrassed they could barely restrain themselves, the corners of their mouths twitching. Only now did they realize they had completely misunderstood the meaning of "Fighting the Landlord".
"What should we do now?"
Mao Yun'er blinked at Yao Ling'er. After all, the two would now prosper and decline together.
"Let's...fight the landlord with the sir first!"
Yao Ling'er felt very complicated inside, gritting her teeth as she spoke. They would have to find another opportunity for anything else, since the three of them were alone in the room together now. There would definitely be a chance.
Yi Feng quickly taught the two women the rules of Fighting the Landlord.
"No problems, right?" Yi Feng asked.
"No, no problems."
The two women felt extremely complicated inside, but could only nod their heads.
"But just fighting like this with no stakes would be boring," Yi Feng stroked his chin and said, "How about this - we each put up an item as a wager. At the end, whoever has the higher score wins everything."
"Of course, a little wager is fun but a big one hurts. The stakes should have some value, but not be too expensive either. I'll wager this dagger of mine, my favorite one!"
When Yi Feng slapped the dagger down on the table, Yao Ling'er's eyes nearly bulged out.
This...
Was this his idea of something with "some value" but "not too expensive"?
Yao Ling'er gasped. She didn't recognize the grade of this dagger, but she knew it had to be at least a Sacred weapon.
This immediately made her drool with desire.
But when she thought of how she didn't have anything close to this grade to wager in response, she became troubled.
After hesitating for a very, very long time, she took out the twin blades that Xuan Wu had gifted her, equal in grade to the Heaven Shaking Stone, from her storage ring.
Of course, these were also the most precious items she currently possessed, and even the most precious items of the entire Profound Martial Sect currently.
"Sir, may I wager these? Yao Ling'er asked nervously, afraid Yi Feng would look down on the twin blades and refuse.
"About the same will do."
Yi Feng said with a smile. After all, the twin blades looked quite exquisite too, truly meeting his requirement of not too bad and not too expensive.
Yi Feng's agreement allowed Yao Ling'er to breathe a sigh of relief.
Thinking that she could use her twin blades to win Yi Feng's dagger, which was at least Sacred grade, made her blood boil with excitement.
Meanwhile, Mao Yun'er looked at Yi Feng's dagger and Yao Ling'er's twin blades, also feeling troubled.
As the pearl of the Merchant Alliance, her eyes were far better than ordinary people's from a young age.
She could tell that neither item was ordinary, so she definitely couldn't take out anything too inferior. But in terms of things of comparable level, the only thing she had was...
Gritting her teeth, she took out an engraved copper piece from her bosom and placed it on the table, softly asking, "May I wager this?"
Yi Feng glanced at it and nodded, naturally no problem.
But Yao Ling'er's eyes flashed with surprise as she looked strangely at Mao Yun'er. This copper piece seemed to be the key to some secret realm! She hadn't expected Mao Yun'er to be able to take out something like this.
But on further thought, it made sense for a large merchant alliance to have some nice treasures, since cultivators would often visit mundane merchant alliances to hunt for treasures.
Even better this way. If she really won, not only would she obtain that dagger not inferior to Sacred grade, but also the key to a secret realm. Even if she didn't accomplish her original goal tonight, it wouldn't be a wasted night!
Yao Ling'er secretly licked her red lips.
Mao Yun'er also had plans in mind.
Although she could tell Yi Feng's dagger was extraordinary, she didn't know its specific value. But at least Yao Ling'er's curved blades were nice items.
As for her copper piece, although she knew it was extremely precious, she didn't know its specific use. Using it as a wager, if she could win both the dagger and the twin blades, it would bring their Merchant Alliance a huge profit.
Before completing her father's task, an unexpected gain wouldn't be bad either!

+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet."
