“Deal!”

Bai Lingling agreed to it without hesitation.

One thousand xuan coins wasn’t a small amount. A bronze level sect’s income would only be about 10,000 xuan coins a year, but she agreed to it without any hesitation. This meant that she didn’t put this amount of money in her eyes!

Ouyang Ye’s eyes darkened as he said, “Kid, you…”

Before he could finish speaking, Bai Lingling yelled, “Ouyang Ye, shut your mouth! If you say another word, you can scram out of our group! I will make you suffer dearly if you dare to piss off this young miss! Freaking hell! I don’t understand how you can keep causing so much trouble for us! If I weren’t giving Uncle Hong some face, I would have already kicked you out a long time ago!”

It was fine if she wasn’t mad. But once she was mad, no one would be able to stop her.

Bai Lingling belonged to the fiery, explosive type of girls.

She looked like those quiet and gentle types that would like to cause some mischief now and then. But once she was angry, no one could stop her on her warpath. Ouyang Ye also was feeling rage inside his heart. He was extremely unhappy but didn’t dare to say a peep. He just narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Tian, “Kid, you just wait for this daddy…”

Luo Tian was stunned by what he saw, as he never expected Bai Lingling’s character to be this fiery.

His impression of her had changed.

The reason why Luo Tian agreed to accompany them wasn’t because of money. Even though money was very important, Luo Tian felt that leveling up some more was even more important. If he wanted to enter further into the depths of the Martial Mountain, there was no way he could protect himself without enhancing his abilities. He couldn’t even get past the Spotted Giant Tiger these past few days, and there are definitely much stronger demonic beasts waiting for him further in.

The only solution he had was to level up!

Once his levels go up, he won’t be afraid of entering deeper locations.

Luo Tian’s desire was piqued when he heard Bai Lingling talk about zombies inside an ancient cave. When he heard those keywords, his heart shook, and he said to himself, “Could this be the ideal place for me to grind experience?”

Luo Tian’s heart was immediately moved by it!

He took large strides over to the group and didn’t fall into any deep holes.

Ouyang Ye’s eyes darkened as he said softly to himself, “So there’s no more traps around.”

Luo Tian heard it and sneered, “Of course there isn’t. That’s why I was calling you out as gutless. You are basically a scaredy cat!”

Ouyang Ye’s expression turned to rage as he shouted, “You… Kid, it looks like you are tired of living! Since there are no traps around here, I want to see…”

Bai Lingling widened her eyes with killing intent as she looked at Ouyang Ye. “What do you want to see?! Ouyang Ye, you want to keep acting insolent?! If he dies, you can forget about taking a single step into the Bai family for the rest of your life!”

“Huh?”

“Little Sister Ling, I, I, I…” Ouyang Ye started panicking.

Luo Tian’s heart skipped a beat before saying to himself, “Bai family? Could it be the same Bai family from the Towering Cloud City?”

He didn’t bother to think too much about it and looked at Bai Lingling’s angry expression. He then chuckled, “Have you become interested in me that quickly? Is it because I’m too cool looking? You must have been charmed by my handsome looks, right?”

Bai Lingling’s line of sight switched over to Luo Tian. She looked at him from head to toe, then back up to his face before saying coldly, ”I don’t see anything handsome about you. If a savage barbarian is considered handsome, then these demonic beasts in the mountains are also considered cute!”

Bai Xiong patted Luo Tian’s shoulder, “Brother, if we didn’t meet you in the day and instead met you during the night, we would think we had encountered a ghost.”

Luo Tian’s entire body was covered in leaves and dirt.

This was the costume that Luo Tian personally designed for himself. Even his face was covered in black colored mud. Not to mention being handsome, just his aura and smell belonged to a special class of stinkiness.

Luo Tian laughed awkwardly, “I am someone who likes to get the money first. If you guys don’t give it to me afterward, wouldn’t I be losing out big time?”

“But the most important thing of all is that I don’t like this guy. If he does anything underhanded behind my back, I will immediately leave the group. I will not be giving you guys any money back, either. I really don’t want to die in there with you all.”

He wasn’t afraid of Ouyang Ye, but he had no idea about anything inside this ancient cave.

What if Ouyang Ye stabs him in the back while they are fighting?

It is much better to talk about this subject first so that Ouyang Ye would be more apprehensive to act.

Bai Xiong shook his head like a rattledrum before giving Ouyang Ye a good look.

Ouyang Ye hated Luo Tian’s guts and wanted to kill him right there. So, even if he had the money on him, there was no way he was going to take it out at a time like this. He immediately said, “I don’t have any money on me.”

Bai Lingling said embarrassedly, “I don’t have that much money on me either. Take this 100 xuan coins first, and I will give you the rest after we leave the mountain. Is that okay?”

“No way!” Luo Tian immediately refused.

He wasn’t going to leave the mountain unless he found the Lunar Crescent Valley. Leaving to go collect some money was not worth it.

One thousand xuan coins were not that much, but meat on a mosquito’s leg was still meat.

Moreover, the items in the store system were all purchased with xuan coins, so xuan coins were still rather important to him.

Bai Lingling revealed a troubled look before reluctantly bringing out a delicate-looking bracelet. She handed it over and said, “This bracelet can be placed in your care for now. It is worth at least ten thousand xuan coins, so you’re okay with this kind of arrangement, right?”

“This is something mother left you before she died! You cannot give it to him!” Bai Xiong instantly shouted.

Ouyang Ye’s face changed as he immediately regretted his actions. If he had known this would happen, he would’ve taken out a thousand xuan coins so that Bai Lingling would be grateful to him. Now, she was forced to take out a memento from her deceased mother. This…

Ouyang Ye cannot mention he had money at such a time like this, or else Bai Lingling would despise him even more.

Bai Lingling said with a faint smile, “Big brother, it’s fine. I’m just giving it to him as collateral and not gifting it to him.”

She then turned to Luo Tian and said, “You better listen up – this is the most precious item I have on me. If you break it, I will definitely not spare you!”

Bai Lingling placed the bracelet in Luo Tian’s hand after saying that.

Luo Tian secretly jumped in shock when he used his system to observe it. “Damn! This is something good!”

He was different from others.

He could use the system to analyze items so he could easily tell if something was good or not. The bracelet in his hand was glowing in his eyes. A spiritual artifact that can glow? That meant this thing was definitely not ordinary!

Luo Tian couldn’t hold back and looked up its characteristics.

Item: Phoenix Bloodshed Bracelet

Grade: Divine (sealed)

Description: This item is made from the blood of a Phoenix, containing the power of the Phoenix Nirvana Nine Heavenly Flames. It requires the essence blood of a Phoenix to unlock the seal.

Description 2: This item has a one-in-ten-thousand chance of triggering the power of the Phoenix Nirvana Nine Heavenly Flames.

“Damn!”

“It’s a divine artifact again! My luck is a bit too good, isn’t it?” Luo Tian felt excited as he didn’t expect to randomly get his hands on another divine artifact. This was something even more awesome than the Heavenly Plume Shield from the Heaven’s Destiny Set.

One thousand xuan coins? The price of this Phoenix Bloodshed Bracelet was probably worth over ten million xuan coins!

Luo Tian didn’t reveal what he was feeling. From the way Bai Lingling looked, Luo Tian could tell they didn’t know how powerful this Phoenix Bloodshed Bracelet was. They were only treating it as a memento.

“Okay!”

“We shall rest here for half an hour before entering the ancient cave.”
