Chapter 2087: Exchange!
Upon hearing these words, the far-off Ye Cheng, which had just calmed down, immediately erupted in anger again:
"What did you say?"
"Fire Phoenix Feather?"
"You really dare to ask for far too much!"
"That is the Holy Object of my Ye Family, what kind of fool’s dream are you having!"
Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.
"So, does such an item truly exist?"
Zhou Yu’s heart had already started to excite.
He had long intended to use the Simurgh Feather to refine a Magic Artifact, but just the Simurgh Feather alone was clearly somewhat weak. If he could obtain the Fire Phoenix Feather, it would be entirely different.
The power of the Magic Artifact refined in the future would at least double!
Upon hearing these words, Ye Cheng’s face stiffened, and then turned ugly.
He didn’t expect to be tricked by Zhou Yu.
He really was angered to the point of being muddled.
And Zhou Yu continued to speak:
"My requests are simple, just one Fire Phoenix Feather in exchange for the True Dragon Blood, and I won’t need the favor from your Ye Family!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling’s expression also became ugly.
The Fire Phoenix Feather is of major importance, and she simply can’t make the decision.
Ye Cheng then angrily declared:
"That’s impossible!"
"The significance of the Fire Phoenix Feather to my Ye Family is beyond what you can imagine."
"Just one Fire Phoenix Feather means potentially having another top-tier genius in my Ye Family!"
"Do you understand?"
Zhou Yu said calmly:
"So, in comparison, the True Dragon Blood indeed does not seem as important as the Fire Phoenix Feather!"
"In that case, let’s drop the matter!"
"You..." Ye Cheng was so angry he was left speechless.
In truth, he was well aware that the importance of the True Dragon Blood to his Ye Family was definitely not inferior to the Fire Phoenix True Blood.
It might even be more so in certain aspects!
Yet, for his Ye Family to hand over the Fire Phoenix Feather, it was more painful to him than death.
At this moment, Ye Ling took a deep breath and spoke:
"Brother Zhou, may I ask, why do you insist on the Fire Phoenix Feather?"
Zhou Yu replied calmly:
"I need the feather of a Fire Attribute Divine Beast to refine a Magic Treasure!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling asked again:
"Can’t it be exchanged for something else?"
Zhou Yu thought for a moment and replied:
"Other things would also be acceptable."
"If you have Nine Heavens Nectar, Jade Flower Spirit Ginseng, or a Tribulation Crossing Pill, that would work as well!"
Upon hearing these words, Ye Cheng was furious.
"What kind of joke are you making?"
"If you could bring out these divine objects, I’d even give you ten Fire Phoenix Feathers..."
At this point, he suddenly realized something and swallowed the rest of his words.
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"It seems your Ye Family has quite a few Fire Phoenix Feathers."
"Exchanging just one seems lacking."
Ye Ling immediately spoke:
"Brother Zhou, I agree to one Fire Phoenix Feather."
Having said that, she looked at Ye Cheng.
"Uncle, let’s go with my decision this time."
Ye Cheng clenched his fist, eyes full of reluctance, but ultimately acquiesced to Ye Ling’s words.
He touched the Storage Ring, and then a Jade Box appeared in his hand.
Ye Cheng snorted coldly, tossed the Jade Box to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu originally thought that even if they agreed, he would have to go to the Ye Family to retrieve it.
Unexpectedly, Ye Cheng actually carried one on him?
Zhou Yu immediately received the Jade Box and opened it to take a look.
Sure enough, inside lay a feather as red as fire.
Even covered in dense talisman sealings, it could not stop the rich fire attribute waves flowing inside.
Zhou Yu closed the Jade Box, looking on with a curious gaze.
"Why do you carry this item with you?"
Ye Cheng snorted coldly.
"What does this have to do with you?"
Ye Ling quickly interjected:
"Brother Zhou, this matter is an absolute secret of my Ye Family, though you should be able to guess."
"It relates to my uncle’s dealings with the Withered Water Wood Clan."
"However, pardon me for being unable to disclose more detailed information."
Zhou Yu nodded.
"No problem, I was merely curious."
"Then this True Dragon Blood is yours."
With that, he waved his hand.
A batch of True Dragon Blood flew towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling immediately reached out to catch it and then looked down.
In her hand appeared a basketball-sized blood sphere with a Dragon shadow rolling inside it.
"True Dragon Blood!"
Ye Ling’s eyes couldn’t help but reveal a hint of ecstatic excitement.
"Wonderful!"
Ye Cheng also moved closer to gaze at the True Dragon Blood in Ye Ling’s hand, equally ecstatic!
After confirming there was no mistake, Ye Ling put away the True Dragon Blood.
She then looked at Zhou Yu.
"Brother Zhou, regardless, our current mission is finally completed."
"You and I can be considered life-and-death friends."
"I have a tiny presumptuous request."
"Please Brother Zhou consider it."
Zhou Yu hesitated and asked:
"What?"
Ye Ling spoke:
"Brother Zhou, in assisting me this time, you’ve offended the Long Family."
"Knowing them, they won’t ever let you go."
"Why not accompany me back to Ye Family? I guarantee, my father will have you as a sacrificial official, just beneath him in stature, with access to all the Ye Family’s resources and manpower!"
With these words, even Ye Cheng surprisingly didn’t retort.
He was angry earlier entirely because of the True Dragon Blood.
Now that the matter was resolved.
Putting aside all emotion, Zhou Yu’s demonstrated talent and strength surpassed anyone in the Ye Family.
Recruiting such a figure into Ye Family would definitely be a remarkable boon.
However, Zhou Yu resolutely refused.
"Sorry, Ye Dao Friend, I don’t plan to return to Fengyuan City."
"In fact, before taking this mission, I had already planned."
"After this journey, I will remain here for other important matters."
Upon hearing these words, Ye Ling’s eyes instantly revealed disappointment.
However, she didn’t continue to persuade him, understanding well that Zhou Yu’s personality meant once he decided something, he would not easily change his mind.
"That’s really unfortunate."
"Brother Zhou, nonetheless, I, Ye Ling, will never forget your life-saving grace."
"If you need anything in the future, feel free to contact me anytime."
Zhou Yu nodded.
"Alright."
Ye Ling suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, there is one more thing!"
"The Golden Palace Clan’s Xiao Baifeng, did you suppress her, Brother Zhou?"
"She possesses the purest blood of the Golden Palace Clan and is a core genius; having her could mean continuous trouble."
"Why not let me handle it and find a suitable time to release her, ensuring the Golden Palace Clan won’t bother you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu thought it over.
Indeed.
After all, the Golden Palace Clan is also a top-ranked Demon Clan; since he has already offended the Long Family, there is no need to anger the Golden Palace Clan as well.
Zhou Yu immediately waved his hand, and Xiao Baifeng appeared before Ye Ling.
She was still unconscious, entirely unaware.
Ye Ling lifted Xiao Baifeng, then effortlessly stored her in a Magic Artifact.
After finishing this, Zhou Yu immediately bid farewell.
"This matter is over!"
"Until next time!"
Having said that, Zhou Yu’s figure turned into a black streak, heading toward the distant sky.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Cheng finally unclenched his reluctant fist.
"That kid ran fast; if it had been a bit later, experts from the family arriving would surely have stopped him!"
Ye Ling gave Ye Cheng a pointed look.
"Uncle, absolutely don’t underestimate him."
"You’ve seen the consequence of the Long Family underestimating him!"
"I have a feeling, even if family experts arrived, they might not be able to hold him."
Ye Cheng pursed his lips, evidently somewhat in disagreement, but said nothing further.
Afterward, the two headed straight to Baijian Canyon, disappearing in Baijian Canyon in the blink of an eye...
