"..."
Li Junfei looked at Yin Yang with an expression that suggested he was looking at an idiot.
"Are you kidding me? If I dismantled it, wouldn't you kill me? Do you think I'm a child?"
"I can wait for Zhang Wei to arrive, and then you can dismantle it for me. I can give you whatever you want. What do you want? Money? Power? I can satisfy you with anything."
Yin Yang was not angered by Li Junfei's words. He realized the problem with his own statement.
But he didn't care.
More than Li Junfei's words, he cared more about the figurine Zhang Wei had given Li Junfei.
"Huh?"
Li Junfei thought he misheard and looked at Yin Yang strangely.
Is this guy really Wei Ge's enemy? He even wants to wait for Wei Ge to come. Is he planning to use me as a hostage? But he can't get close to me. Could it be that this guy isn't afraid of Wei Ge? That would mean... he's a Zhen Guo level?!
Thinking of Yin Yang's strength.
Li Junfei's scalp tingled. After staying with Zhang Wei for so long, even as an ordinary person, he had been influenced and knew what Zhen Guo level meant. They were existences that could shake Great Xia with a stomp. Now, he was right in front of him and plotting against him.
Just as Li Junfei was startled.
Yin Yang seemed to have understood Li Junfei's thoughts, took a small step back, and created distance between them.
"I won't hurt you. I'm looking for Zhang Wei. Of course, I also want to see the magical artifact in your hand. If you're willing to dismantle it for me to see, I can give you money."
As he spoke, Yin Yang took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his pocket, looking like tens of thousands. Then he picked up his phone and asked.
"What's your bank account number? I'll transfer the money to you now. How much do you want? 100,000? No, 100,000 is too little. That's blasphemy to the magical artifact in your hand. How about 5 million? Still not right. Forget it, you name your price."
Yin Yang frowned, somewhat unsure of the price. The magical artifact in Li Junfei's hand was unprecedented. Made with the cheapest materials, it produced a magical artifact far exceeding its value. It was definitely a rare treasure.
Li Junfei was stunned. He looked at the cash in Yin Yang's hand and then at Yin Yang's serious expression, his face becoming even stranger.
"Holy crap, are you serious?"
"What's your bank account number? How about I transfer 10 million to you first?"
Yin Yang looked up at Li Junfei, not planning to explain further. He wanted to prove it with action.
"I won't sell it. This is a treasure that is very important to me. I won't sell it for any amount of money. It's a priceless treasure."
Li Junfei shook his head and refused, even though he was indeed tempted.
"Hmm?"
Yin Yang was stunned for a moment, somewhat surprised by Li Junfei's action. He only had eyes for the magical artifact, but that didn't mean he lacked basic common sense. 10 million was an astronomical sum for an ordinary person, especially for a college student. Judging by Li Junfei's attire, he didn't seem wealthy.
Yet, this person refused him.
Involuntarily.
A rare smile appeared on Yin Yang's usually expressionless face. He nodded and praised.
"It seems you also understand magical artifacts. You are very good. This magical artifact has great value. In my opinion, although its power is only at the Ghost King level, its refinement itself is a priceless treasure to me."
Mentioning the magical artifact.
Yin Yang's expression instantly changed. Whether it was because he had finally met someone who understood its value, or to pass the time until Zhang Wei arrived, or seeing Li Junfei's eager expression, he began to talk enthusiastically about the magical artifact to Li Junfei.
...
On the other side.
In the backyard of Zhang Wei's ancestral home.
With two thuds.
Zhang Wei and the Fengmen Zombie jumped out of the pond.
"Zhang Wei, what's wrong? Why did you come up halfway? You're much calmer than me."
The Fengmen Zombie spoke, his tone seemingly calm, but his excited expression clearly indicated his emotional state was not calm, but abnormally agitated.
Not long ago, Zhang Wei and the Fengmen Zombie had jumped into the backyard pond together, wanting to see if there was any craftsmanship related to the Dragon Locking Well. And upon looking, they had indeed discovered information about the Dragon Locking Well. At the bottom of the pond, in addition to the well-digging techniques, a concealed stone also had information about the Dragon Locking Well inscribed on it.
To be precise.
It was the manufacturing notes for the Dragon Locking Well.
The ancestors who created the Dragon Locking Well back then indeed had the habit of continuing to write the notes of each family head. They inscribed some information about the Dragon Locking Well at the bottom of the pond, including where the things inside the Dragon Locking Well were located and what mechanisms were inside. They had a general idea.
In response.
Zhang Wei and the Fengmen Zombie were overjoyed. Especially the Fengmen Zombie, who had pursued the Dragon Locking Well his entire life. Even after death and becoming a zombie, he couldn't break free from the Dragon Locking Well. Now that he had learned some information about it, the Fengmen Zombie was extremely excited.
If it weren't for being in the water, the Fengmen Zombie would have joyfully shouted.
Just as the Fengmen Zombie was about to call Zhang Wei to examine the inscribed notes on the stone in the pond with him.
Zhang Wei seemed to sense something, looked up at the surface of the pond, and then, without even looking at the notes, rushed to the surface of the pond.
The Fengmen Zombie was surprised, not understanding why Zhang Wei wasn't looking. But despite his curiosity and excitement, he still followed closely behind, catching up to Zhang Wei and emerging from the pond.
"I'm not calm at all. Grandfather, I can't wait to take the stone up and examine it, but there's still one thing I need to do right now."
"What is it? Is it more important than looking at our ancestors' notes on the Dragon Locking Well?"
The Fengmen Zombie instinctively asked.
"Yes."
Zhang Wei replied casually, his gaze fell upon him, and then he said.
"The Sen Luo Division has come looking for me."
[Ding! Fengmen Zombie's expression changes... What?! The Sen Luo Division has come looking for me?! Oh no, have I been discovered by Sen Luo?!]

The Fengmen Zombie suddenly looked around vigilantly.
"Where? Are they on their way? Zhang Wei, how do you know? Do you know who is coming? Is it Sen Luo? Or other high-ranking officials? Should I take action?"
"They are not here. They are going to find my friend. The magical artifact I gave my friend triggered a warning. I sensed it just now. As for help, you don't need to. Because the person coming is Yin Yang."
"Hmm? Yin Yang?!"
The Fengmen Zombie's pupils dilated.
At this moment.
Zhang Wei did not hesitate and said directly.
"Grandfather, let's put the matter of the stone notes aside for now. I'm going to meet Yin Yang. I cannot let my friend be in danger."
"I'll go with you."
The Fengmen Zombie stepped forward, intending to go with Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei was his descendant, the hope he saw for revitalizing the family. Even if he died, he couldn't let Zhang Wei be harmed.
Zhang Wei understood his intention.
"Grandfather, you go and get the stone notes first, to prevent them from being taken away by someone else. I can handle Yin Yang."
"But..."
The Fengmen Zombie spoke with concern. He knew Yin Yang's strength. This was a Zhen Guo level expert who had even killed a Zhen Guo level expert. His strength was not to be underestimated, let alone his artifact refining skills. The magical artifacts he possessed were enough to make a country rich.
Zhang Wei waved his hand. With the system points enhancement, he could know the situation with Li Junfei. He said slowly.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I have a way to handle it. Besides, Yin Yang won't kill me for now."
Fengmen Zombie: "??????"
[Ding! Fengmen Zombie... Huh?]
