Chapter 1583: Chapter 643: A Pair of Shameless Lovers

Ye Lingyue spoke, and Lady Dan Yu’s expression changed.

She didn’t expect that the Senluo Ghost Fruit King of Chen Mu and Yue Mei was obtained in this way.

"You fools, that Senluo Ghost Fruit King is stolen property."

Lady Dan Yu slammed the table, and the tea table along with the surrounding furnishings instantly turned to powder. Ye Lingyue felt a surge of Primordial Power flowing like a tidal wave.

She leaped up and shielded Guangzi.

Even so, Ye Lingyue felt her blood surging through her body, as if receiving a heavy blow to her front, causing her to stagger slightly.

Not daring to be careless, she quickly mobilized the Power of Heaven and Earth within her to barely dispel the frightening Primordial Power released by Lady Dan Yu.

Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but click her tongue, realizing that this seemingly harmless Lady Dan Yu was actually a formidable Great Divine Power Realm expert.

The Exotic Treasures Pavilion has rules for receiving items: stolen or robbed items are not accepted, neither are burdensome or decrepit items, nor tomb-raided items.

When Chen Mu and Yue Mei came to her, they were very clear that the Senluo Ghost Fruit King was obtained from some ruins.

Lady Dan Yu naturally considered it an ownerless item and offered a high amount of Merit Points.

But little did she know, it was this astonishing amount of Merit Points that tempted Chen Mu and Yue Mei into secretly harming Ye Liuyun.

In her anger, Lady Dan Yu came to her senses, only then noticing that the furnishings in the elegant room had been reduced to rubble due to her outburst.

Looking at Ye Lingyue and Guangzi, Lady Dan Yu felt a bit embarrassed.

"Captain Ye, I ask for your forgiveness. In my moment of anger, my behavior was out of line. Please pardon me."

"I’m afraid this is just the lady’s true nature,"

Guangzi saw his sister’s face changing colors, knowing she had been implicated, and responded with irritation.

Lady Dan Yu laughed awkwardly twice. In her youth, she had been quite hot-tempered, but over the years of managing the Exotic Treasures Pavilion, her temper had subsided a lot. However, today, due to the excitement, she accidentally revealed her true character to these juniors, which embarrassed her somewhat.

She coughed a few times, then looked at Ye Lingyue, only to see her complexion had returned to normal, which surprised her and further confirmed Ye Lingyue’s uncommon strength.

"Captain Ye, I truly sympathize with your sister’s situation, but what’s done is done. Even if I believe your words, the Senluo Ghost Fruit King has been sold, and Chen Mu and Yue Mei have already received one million Merit Points and left Senluo Wanxiang City. Retrieving those Merit Points to avenge your sister is likely impossible."

One million Merit Points!

Ye Lingyue and Guangzi were both stunned by this staggering number.

Though they knew the Senluo Ghost Fruit King would be highly valuable, Ye Lingyue never imagined it would reach such an amount.

This amount of Merit Points was enough to elevate Chen Mu, Yue Mei, and their team to become a First-tier Team.

"Judging by your expressions, do you think one million Merit Points is a lot? Actually not. The Senluo Ghost Fruit King was appraised by me personally, and if fully matured, its value wouldn’t be less than a million. You must know that any Demon General who consumes the Ghost Fruit King has the chance to become a Demon King. And if the two major Demon Kings obtained a matured Ghost Fruit King, they could break through and become a Demon Emperor. A Demon Emperor’s Merit Points far exceed a million. Any First-tier Team or city holding the Senluo Ghost Fruit King can attract demon beasts in unlimited numbers. So, this one million Merit Points is well worth it."

Lady Dan Yu is indeed a shrewd businesswoman.

When she saw the Senluo Ghost King, she already knew its value was astonishing.

She outwardly remained calm and informed Chen Mu and Yue Mei that the Ghost Fruit King was indeed a Senluo Ghost Fruit.

The million Merit Points price was actually just for an ordinary Senluo Ghost Fruit, not the matchless Ghost Fruit King.

Though Chen Mu and Yue Mei hailed from prestigious backgrounds, they knew nothing about the Ghost Beast Clan. After learning that the Senluo Ghost Fruit King was valued at a million Merit Points, they were overcome with ecstatic excitement.

They sold the Ghost Fruit King immediately and later attacked Ye Liuyun.

They thought this matter would remain unknown, but because Ye Liuyun miraculously survived, the truth was exposed.

"Chen Mu and Yue Mei, I will account for them myself. What I want to investigate right now is the whereabouts of the Senluo Ghost Fruit King. By rights, it was my cousin who discovered it."

Ye Lingyue stared directly at Lady Dan Yu.

"Captain Ye, you are making things difficult for me. You should know that whoever could afford to buy the Senluo Ghost Fruit King is definitely not an ordinary person. Even with your Infinite Black Diamond Card, given your current strength, it’s best not to provoke them," Lady Dan Yu advised kindly.

"Lady Dan Yu, you might as well name your price. What will it take for you to tell me the whereabouts of the Senluo Ghost Fruit King?"

Ye Lingyue took out the Infinite Black Diamond Card, seeing that Lady Dan Yu still had room for negotiation; otherwise, she would have sent them away already.

"Captain Ye, the last thing I lack is Merit Points. You can see for yourself, my cultivation also doesn’t allow participation in the Jiu Provinces Hunting. However, this matter isn’t entirely without room for discussion. Captain Ye, as long as you tell me who your master is, I will tell you the whereabouts of the Ghost Fruit King," Lady Dan Yu suddenly switched her tone.

Reveal Master Zi’s identity?

Ye Lingyue hesitated.

What is Master Zi’s identity, if not the Lord of Lonely Moon Sea, holder of the Black Fire? Beyond these, she really didn’t know who Master Zi was.

Lady Dan Yu’s cautiousness towards her was due to Master Zi providing the Infinite Black Diamond Card.

If they knew Master Zi was just an introverted, miserly, tight-lipped person, the image she had created of having a powerful backer would shatter.

Resolutely unable to disclose Master Zi’s identity, Ye Lingyue silently chanted in her heart.

"Lady Dan Yu, I’m afraid I cannot comply with your request. My master doesn’t like others knowing anything about him. Aside from this, you can propose any other condition."

Ye Lingyue’s words left Lady Dan Yu somewhat disappointed, but she was not disheartened.

"In that case, I can show Captain Ye a favor. Just produce an item, whether it’s a Spiritual Artifact, Elixir Pills, or Martial Arts, anything that catches my eye, and in exchange, I’ll tell Captain Ye the whereabouts of the Senluo Ghost Fruit King."

Lady Dan Yu, being a businesswoman, immediately devised another plan when one objective seemed unattainable.

She spoke and her beautiful eyes fixed on the Heaven and Earth Bracelet on Ye Lingyue’s hand.

Ye Lingyue had nothing particularly valuable on her, and if anything could catch Lady Dan Yu’s eye, it was only the Heaven and Earth Bracelet on her hand.

Ye Lingyue could clearly see Lady Dan Yu’s intent; it seemed she wanted the Heaven and Earth Bracelet.
