CHAPTER 257: CHAPTER 166: WHO REALLY GOT THE ADVANTAGE?_2

It’s just an embryo!

In the future, Li Yunjing will continue to upgrade this "Five Dragon Wheel," and the higher-tier materials needed later will require even more spirit stones!

Even in future trades, it won’t be low grade spirit stones but middle grade spirit stones!

"So? Do you have the spirit stones or not? If you don’t, don’t waste my time!"

Li Yunjing had just hesitated for a moment, and this Steward Wei Fan was already impatient to drive him away.

Seeing Wei Fan’s impatient expression, Li Yunjing’s face darkened.

Yang Wenzheng, such a fair and tender little boy who spoke softly, how did he end up with such a brutish teacher?

Needing something from him, Li Yunjing could only suppress the anger in his heart.

It was at this moment that Li Yunjing realized the importance of having a skill.

"If I have the time, I must learn artifact refining! I don’t want to keep enduring this kind of frustration!"

Li Yunjing cursed silently in his heart.

"I have! I don’t have enough spirit stones, but I have good items to trade!"

Gritting his teeth, Li Yunjing had come this far, there was no turning back now, he was determined to refine this "Five Dragon Wheel."

Even if it meant paying a higher price!

"Good items? Let me see."

Hearing Li Yunjing say he had good items, Wei Fan’s expression immediately brightened.

As an artifact refiner, top-quality materials were his favorite.

Seeing Wei Fan’s delighted look, Li Yunjing wished he could punch him twice.

"Steward Wei Fan, please look!"

Li Yunjing didn’t hesitate and took out a "Hundred Treasures Pouch" again. With a shake, a few dull thuds followed. Seventy-six three-foot-long turtle shells fell to the ground.

In an instant, they almost filled up Wei Fan’s artifact refining room!

"Damn!"

Wei Fan couldn’t help but curse. In a flash, he appeared beside Li Yunjing, picking up two turtle shells from the ground to examine them.

Even Yang Wenzheng was stunned. He directly tossed the "Starlight Stone" to Li Yunjing and also bent down to scrutinize the turtle shells.

"Good stuff! Did you kill a mid-tier second-tier Black Tortoise?"

When Wei Fan looked at Li Yunjing again, his expression had changed, and he seemed a bit incredulous.

"Brother Li, you’re this fierce?"

Hearing his teacher’s words, Yang Wenzheng also curiously asked.

He found it hard to believe!

Was Li Yunjing really that strong?

"Yeah! Luckily, I killed it! Steward Wei Fan, how many spirit stones do you think these things can be worth?"

Li Yunjing asked with a cheeky grin.

Now do you see how awesome I am?

"Sigh! These are all good items! They can cover all the costs! And you even have some left over! So, how should I go about keeping all these turtle shells?"

Wei Fan didn’t hesitate and directly expressed his desire to keep everything.

"Uh..."

Li Yunjing was taken aback by this straightforward artifact refiner!

Not holding back at all!

You want it all?

I was planning to use these turtle shells for practice!

How big is your face?

"Li Yunjing! I see you have a piece of Profound Jade Inner Armor? How about I upgrade it to a low grade spiritual artifact?"

Wei Fan glanced at Li Yunjing a few times and said in a deep voice, "You don’t have to pay spirit stones or contribution points. Give me the embryo of the ’Five Dragon Wheel,’ and I’ll upgrade your Profound Jade Inner Armor!"

Wei Fan’s words made Li Yunjing somewhat tempted.

Gaining a spiritual artifact would significantly boost his power, and it seemed like a good deal!

After thinking it over, Li Yunjing gritted his teeth and said, "My Gale Boots also need to be upgraded to a low grade spiritual artifact!"

"Hey! You’re quite greedy! Do you know what a low grade spiritual artifact is? Do you know how many spirit stones one costs?"

Wei Fan’s face turned dark, clearly displeased with how Li Yunjing was pushing his luck.

Wei Fan’s mouth didn’t stop, firing off like a machine gun about the difficulties of artifact refining, the expensive materials, the labor costs, his effort...

He went on for a full quarter-hour before stopping to take a drink because he was thirsty.

Li Yunjing saw the steward pick up a gourd and guzzle several large mouthfuls of spiritual spring water.

"Steward Wei Fan! I’ll add another 10,000 contribution points! That’s my bottom line. If you don’t agree, I’ll just sell these turtle shells and gather enough materials to refine the ’Five Dragon Wheel’ myself!"

Seeing that Wei Fan seemed ready to continue his barrage, Li Yunjing quickly interrupted with his final offer.

In matters of interest, Li Yunjing wasn’t backing down.

"Alright kid! I’ll take all your materials!"

Wei Fan’s eyes widened in anger, looking like an agitated Zhang Fei.

Wei Fan was unhappy with Li Yunjing’s haggling, still insisting that everything Li Yunjing brought should be included.

"Okay, but my Gale Boots must be upgraded with the Celestial Thunder Stone to include the Thunder Escape Technique!"

Li Yunjing’s eyes were red; this was his everything!

Getting stripped clean by Wei Fan!

His heart bled, deeply unsatisfied with Wei Fan’s offer.

He made one more demand.

The "Thunder Escape Technique" was a high-level tier two divine technique.

If Wei Fan refined it into the Gale Boots, the spiritual artifact would be formidable!

This was non-negotiable for Li Yunjing!

Only this way could it be worth all his sacrifices!

The two glared at each other, neither willing to step back!

"Damn! You should just join the sect’s trading house from the Seven Star Palace and become a shopkeeper!"

After a long while, Wei Fan cursed, then nodded begrudgingly, saying in a deep voice, "Deal!"

"Hehe! Thank you, Steward Wei Fan! I know you’re doing me a favor, and I really appreciate it!"
