Ye Lin turned to Li Youwei and said.
"No, wait a little longer. We'll leave after everyone else is gone."
Li Youwei shook her head. Ye Lin walked to the window and looked at the people standing below.
These people seemed to be standing still, but in reality, they would occasionally look up at Box No. 3.
They weren't trying to rob it; after all, how could someone who could produce such a large quantity of Spirit Stones be a simple person?
Their goal was to meet the wealthy individual inside Box No. 3.
If they could make friends, that would naturally be even better.
Seeing this, Ye Lin nodded and sat down on a reclining chair nearby.
"That's fine."
If they went out now, they would definitely be surrounded by the crowd, and it would be incredibly troublesome to be stared at like monkeys.
Time passed bit by bit, and the young people below shook their heads and left one after another.
Thus, how could they not understand in their hearts that the person didn't want to see them?
Staying there any longer would just be a waste of time.
It would be futile.
After the figures had left, Ye Lin and Li Youwei turned around and walked out of the box.
"Where are you going now?"
Li Youwei turned to look at Ye Lin.
As for the little green snake, she had already put it into her Beast Taming Bag.
"Back to the inn, to Cultivate in seclusion, and wait for Divine Sword City to open."
Ye Lin stated his thoughts.
"Ah? That's really boring. Do you want to come play with me?"
Hearing Ye Lin's answer, Li Youwei's face was filled with disappointment.
This person was too boring.
Life was meant for playing; what kind of life was it if you didn't play?
Cultivating every day, only to be killed in the end, that was too boring.
"I just heard that there's a great treasure rumored to have appeared ten thousand miles outside the city. Do you want to go take a look?"
Li Youwei walked in front of Ye Lin, blocking his path, and said with a face full of anticipation.
"I'm quite curious, you've been by my side this whole time, when did you receive this news?"
"And why haven't I heard about it?"
Looking at Li Youwei in front of him, Ye Lin said with interest.
The woman in front of him had been inseparable from him since entering the auction house until now, so how did she receive the news?
"You don't need to worry about that, just tell me if you're going or not?"
"And I heard that this time's treasure is a Profound Rank High-Grade Fig, have you heard of Figs?"
"As long as you consume it, it can cleanse the Divine Soul, making the Divine Soul stronger and purer."
"Moreover, the effect is far more than that; the Fig also has the effect of enhancing the Divine Soul."
"How about it? Are you tempted?"
After Li Youwei finished speaking, Ye Lin was tempted.
Treasures that enhance the Divine Soul are extremely precious.
And the Fig sounds like it's of no low grade.
Any treasure that can enhance the Divine Soul will have a price far exceeding treasures of the same grade.
After all, treasures that can increase the Divine Soul are, firstly, precious, and secondly, extremely rare.
"Where is it? I hope you're not lying to me."
"How could that be? This young lady never lies."
Li Youwei raised her head, her face full of pride.
In her entire life, she had never lied to anyone; she didn't know how to lie.
"Since that's the case, let's go."
Seeing this, Ye Lin could only follow behind Li Youwei.
It didn't matter if this girl was lying to him; if she was, it would just be a small waste of time.
The two walked out of the city before stepping on their Flying Swords and flying into the distance.
After all, flying freely within the city was not allowed.
Once discovered, one would be expelled from the city.
The further they went, Ye Lin noticed more and more people ahead.
Upon reaching a mountain peak, a large tree grew on the peak, and on the tree hung eight white, jade-like fruits.
And in the surrounding air, three figures were seated cross-legged.
One was a young man in white clothes, one was a clean-faced Little Monk wearing a monk's robe on his upper body, and the other was a chubby little fellow whose face was almost indistinguishable due to his fatness.
These three figures formed a triangular encirclement around the mountain peak.
The terrifying Golden Core Peak aura emanating from these three figures forced back the vast majority of people.
Below, many figures stood, their eyes resolute.
The Fig grew between heaven and earth, belonging to no single power or person; they, of course, also wanted a piece of the pie.
"Benefactor, it's already full, please retreat."
After Ye Lin and Li Youwei arrived, the Little Monk put his palms together, looked at the two, and said with a smile.
His voice was gentle, making people feel as comfortable as a gentle breeze caressing their faces.
"Full? There are a full eight Figs, and there are only three of you? What, do you want to monopolize the Figs?"
Hearing the Little Monk's words, Li Youwei stood on her long sword, hands on her hips, her face full of anger.
"Benefactor, this item is fated with me, please retreat."
After the Little Monk finished speaking, a terrifying aura burst forth from his entire body, pressing directly towards Li Youwei.
Upon feeling this terrifying aura, Li Youwei's face turned pale, and her body swayed.
The next moment, a hand rested on her shoulder, and the suffocating aura she had just felt immediately vanished.
Turning to look, Ye Lin was standing behind her.
"Ye Lin, hit him for me."
Li Youwei, her face full of grievance, pointed at the Little Monk and said to Ye Lin.
Since she was little, when had she ever suffered such grievance?
"Monk, bullying a little girl who only has Foundation Establishment Peak strength with your Golden Core Peak strength, I'm afraid that's not very honorable, is it?"
Ye Lin said with a smile.
And Li Youwei, hearing this, silently looked down at herself, infuriated, where was she small?
"Benefactor, retreat."
The Little Monk's face was already smiling as he spoke. The next moment, that aura intensified.
And in the surrounding heaven and earth, gusts of Kuang Feng also subtly began to blow.
Ye Lin, however, did not retreat in the slightest, still maintaining a smile.
The two were secretly engaged in a contest.
On the surface, it looked calm, but in reality, it was extremely perilous.
If either of them retreated first, their Dao Heart would be damaged.
And seeing Ye Lin, who hadn't moved at all, the Little Monk's expression also changed.
This was... encountering a tough opponent.
"Benefactor, please."
The next moment, the terrifying aura instantly disappeared, and the Little Monk, with a smile, retreated to the side. The original three-person encirclement of the mountain peak had now become five people.
"Benefactor, this Little Monk is Wu Xin. May I ask your esteemed name?"
Wu Xin put his palms together, sat cross-legged in mid-air, bowed to Ye Lin, and said with a smile.
After the previous contest, Ye Lin's strength had already gained his recognition.
Although he couldn't see Ye Lin's Cultivation Realm, based solely on that contest, Ye Lin must also be at the Golden Core Peak Cultivation.
"Ye Lin."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he stood on his long sword, looking at the Fig on the distant mountain peak.
"Ye Lin, why didn't you hit him? He bullied me so much just now."
Li Youwei looked at Ye Lin with a face full of anger.
And Ye Lin just smiled slightly, saying that in the end, she was still a child.
"It's best to forgive when you can. He's already made a concession, and he didn't harm you."
Ye Lin said with a smile, but Li Youwei still glared angrily at Wu Xin in the distance.
"Little Monk, you just wait. I remember what happened just now. When the time comes, I'll have my sister teach you a lesson, and I guarantee she'll beat you until you're looking for your teeth all over the ground."
"Then this Little Monk awaits."
Wu Xin didn't take Li Youwei's threat to heart at all.
She was just a little girl. His original intention was just to force her back; he didn't intend to kill her in the slightest.
It was also fortunate that he didn't intend to kill her, otherwise, Ye Lin would not have let him off easily.
Li Youwei was very much to his liking, and moreover, the Spirit Stones she lent him were not a small sum, and since Li Youwei trusted him, he also considered Li Youwei a friend.
If you try to kill his friend, then you must die too.
