"Uncle Luo Ming finally told me the truth about what happened back then this afternoon..."
Jiang Shishan looked up at the night sky, took a deep breath, and began, "My father, Jiang Feng, was on a mission at the Brad base when he was ambushed by his own people... He fell into a trap set by the Brad base's Blood Clan, was branded with a blood seal... and became their puppet, slaughtering the people of the City of Arcane..."
"Helpless, my father had to ask Uncle Luo Ming to kill him..."
"And the one who ambushed him was Mei You... and Tuo Sui, one of the Five Arcane Prodigies of today..."
"This is also why Uncle Luo Ming has been stopping me from investigating for over twenty years. The enemy is too powerful..."
After speaking, Jiang Shishan took out the blood letter that Luo Ming had given him that afternoon. The dark red script was a little messy, but he recognized it...
"Regarding the Brad base, I've already avenged you... As for Tuo Sui, I'll kill him if I get the chance!"
"Anyway, that guy wanted to kill me last time at the ancient ruins..."
At this moment, Ye Feng looked at the tallest building in the distance, glowing with a dim yellow light, and muttered.
"Avenged me?"
"Yes, the Blood Clan of the Brad base, including the Blood Ancestor and the Ten Blood Guards, are all dead..."
"Holy crap, really?"
...
The next day,
Ye Feng decided to do something relaxing, as he had received a lot of information yesterday and his mind was a bit cluttered.
So, after breakfast, Ye Feng went to a rather bustling area and set up a stall.
Of course, what Ye Feng sold was not ordinary. He was selling his self-made arcane energy firearms, arcane talismans, and some ordinary handguns and bullets.
"Hey, you miner, why aren't you mining and come here to sell things?"
"Damn it, what kind of world is this, even miners are selling things? Selling themselves?"
"That small table and chairs... just a few pieces of wood and sticks... so new, made today?"
"Holy crap, a miner is actually selling arcane energy firearms at a stall?"
"Damn, arcane talismans too? They look so crude..."
...
Ye Feng, dressed in a miner's outfit, quickly attracted the attention of the crowd.
"Well... let's try our luck~"
Seeing more and more people gathering, Ye Feng took out a blackboard and wrote on it with white porcelain clay, "Professional help to overcome tribulation fire, special prices! Full refund if you fail!"
"Kid, you're not old, how do you have so many good things?"
"Your miner uniform... with so much material, did you steal it from the mine?"
"I can testify, this was stolen from our mine, the foreman is looking for it!"
...
Among the onlookers, three fierce-looking bald men shouted and pushed their way through the crowd, coming to Ye Feng. As they shouted, one of the one-eyed bald men had already reached out to grab the arcane energy firearm on Ye Feng's table.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out. It was Ye Feng's Glock 18 firing, hitting the one-eyed bald man's hand that was reaching for the arcane primary stone.
"Ah!"
The one-eyed bald man screamed and clutched his bleeding hand. The other two bald men were about to make a move, but they suddenly stopped.
Because Ye Feng was aiming his gun at their heads. One of them was an arcane energy pistol, but its barrel was as wide as a shotgun...
"Little... kid, you... you dare to shoot here... this is Anle Street..."
The one-eyed bald man gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Ye Feng.
"Anle Street? What's that?"
Ye Feng frowned slightly. "I don't know about Anle Street... My master told me to come here and set up a stall to sell things, and he'd give me a commission... He said he'd handle any problems!"
"You..."
As soon as he said this, the faces of the three bald men changed.
Just now, the three of them saw that Ye Feng's arcane energy fluctuation was only at Silver Intermediate, so they hatched a plan to rob him. They didn't expect him to have someone backing him up...
"Scram!"
Ye Feng glared at the three bald men, his index fingers on the triggers of both guns tightening slightly.
"Young hero, spare us!"
"We're leaving now!"
The three bald men were immediately terrified and begged for mercy as they left.
...
"Little boss, how much are your arcane energy firearms and arcane talismans?"
After the three bald men left, a middle-aged man walked up and asked Ye Feng.
"Oh, only arcane primary stones, nothing else!"
Ye Feng replied quickly. As his strength increased, he needed to consume more arcane primary stones. The arcane primary stones he had hoarded were running out, but he had quite a lot of arcane coins...
"Are these arcane talismans powerful?"
"Of course!"
"Little boss, why is your arcane energy firearm shaped so strangely?"
...
"This is too expensive..."
...
Facing the questions from the crowd, Ye Feng answered quickly.
Soon, a small pile of arcane primary stones appeared on the ground next to Ye Feng's stall.
"Little boss, what does your blackboard say about 'professional help to overcome tribulation fire, special prices...'?"
A burly man carrying a wolf-tooth club pointed to the blackboard next to the stall and asked doubtfully.
"I'm not too sure. My master told me to write it, saying that those who understand will understand, and those who don't, it's useless to explain~"
Ye Feng waved his hand slightly.
"Young man, I think I've seen something similar somewhere..."
"Me too!"
"I remember, on the way to the City of Arcane before, I saw a Hummer with a banner that said something like thirty years of traditional Chinese medicine, ancestral heritage... it also mentioned helping to overcome tribulation fire..."
"I have an impression of that too..."
"What is this tribulation fire? A disease? A shamanistic ritual?"
...
Several adventurers looked at what Ye Feng had written on the blackboard and discussed it animatedly.
"Oh, right, my master also told me that if I successfully introduce a customer to him, I'll get 500 arcane coins!"
Ye Feng pondered for a moment, pointed to the white text on the blackboard, and said.
"Holy crap, 500 arcane coins?"
"Is that true?"
"A fortune, unbelievable!"
"Little boss, are you serious?"
...
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, the crowd exploded.
"Of course, it's true!"
Ye Feng nodded very seriously. "My master is very capable and never speaks carelessly!"
"I'll be here for a few days, so anyone you know, introduce them quickly!"
He paused and said again.
"Holy crap, let's go, quickly post the message!"
"But we don't even know what tribulation fire is?"
"Who cares, let's post the message first. I want a 2% commission..."
...
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, more than half of the crowd dispersed, rushing to post the message and intending to take advantage of the opportunity to earn some money.
Afterward, Ye Feng wrote some pricing information on the blackboard, then took out a rattan chair and leisurely lay on it to sunbathe...
