Dong Yingxue, however, saw hope in Lin Feng.
"Sir, what conditions do you require to exchange your fever talisman and qi replenishing talisman with me?"
Dong Yingxue gazed at Lin Feng eagerly, her dewy eyes perpetually clouded with a faint melancholy.
"Apologies, I greatly dislike your friend. He doesn't trust me and has slandered me, so I cannot exchange talismans with you."
Lin Feng was not one to be trifled with. Would he easily agree just because Dong Yingxue was beautiful?
"Boy, you dislike me, but I don't dislike you? What do you think you are, to speak of me!"
He Yu, though blustering, was inwardly timid. As the young master of the He family, no one in the capital dared disrespect him.
Clearly, this charlatan selling talismans had no idea who he was, or he would have long since been terrified into apologizing and begging on his knees!
"He Yu, stop talking!"
Dong Yingxue spoke with displeasure, quickly distancing herself from He Yu. "Sir, I'm not familiar with him. What he says does not represent me. I believe you."
"Therefore, please give me a chance. As long as your talismans are as powerful as you say, I will agree to any conditions!"
He Yu's resentment intensified when Dong Yingxue spoke like this.
He had already blacklisted Lin Feng and vowed to make him pay when the opportunity arose.
"Very well. First, tell me what good things you have on you. If I find them agreeable, I can give you a chance to exchange."
Lin Feng's heart finally softened. He could see Dong Yingxue's sincerity.
"I, the good things I have on me?"
Dong Yingxue was taken aback by Lin Feng's question. She looked herself over from head to toe.
Finally, she removed the heirloom hanging around her neck.
"This pendant was passed down to me by my grandfather before he passed away. Do you think this will do?"
Dong Yingxue handed the heirloom to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng took it. The pendant still held Dong Yingxue's warmth and faint scent.
"Yingxue, are you insane? That's your family heirloom, and you're trading it for his worthless talismans?"
He Yu had not intended to speak, but he truly couldn't stand Dong Yingxue's foolish actions.
"You don't need to concern yourself with my affairs. If you find it disagreeable, you can stay away from me."
Dong Yingxue was immensely annoyed by He Yu's incessant buzzing.
Compared to her mother's illness, what was a family heirloom?
"Fine, I won't interfere! Do as you please."
He Yu was furious. He was trying to be helpful, but why didn't Dong Yingxue understand? He was done for!
Lin Feng had no interest in dealing with He Yu. He examined the pendant in his hand, finding its origin somewhat inscrutable.
The pendant was about the size of his palm, heavy in his hand. Its surface was covered in rust, and the patterns on it were blurred.
What made it extraordinary was its material.
It wasn't iron, nor was it cast from gold. Through the rust, a blood-red hue could be seen beneath, indicating a metal he had never encountered before.
"Miss Dong, does this pendant have any special origin?"
Lin Feng inquired. Since it was a family heirloom, it was surely not ordinary.
Dong Yingxue pondered for a moment and then said, "I'm not entirely sure. I only heard my grandfather say that this pendant was made from a stone, something called Butian Stone."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng's mind buzzed.
Good heavens, this pendant was made from Butian Stone.
Wasn't Butian Stone the very stone Nuwa used to mend the sky?
This Butian Stone was one of the things he and Duan Liang had been searching for, along with the Kaitian Brush!
"Alright, I can exchange with you."
Lin Feng suppressed his excitement and elation, quickly stowing the pendant into his storage bag.
Then, he took out two sheets of yellow paper, wrote a fever talisman and a qi replenishing talisman, and handed them to Dong Yingxue.
"How do I use these two talismans?"
Dong Yingxue took the yellow talismans and quickly asked.
"It's simple. Just point them at the patient and shout 'Ji'!"
Lin Feng smiled, feeling like he had taken great advantage of Dong Yingxue. To assuage his conscience, Lin Feng casually wrote a few more talismans for her.
"Miss Dong, consider these as complimentary gifts. The method of use is to point them at someone and shout 'Ji'."
"Thank you so much. What kind of talismans are these?"
Dong Yingxue wasn't very knowledgeable about talismans and feared mixing them up.
"This is the Pervert Talisman, this one is the Five Thunder Talisman, and this is the Simp Talisman..."
Lin Feng introduced them one by one, briefly explaining their effects.
"Ah? The Pervert Talisman can actually make someone a pervert?"
Dong Yingxue found this function rather unbelievable.
He Yu couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Yingxue, I told you he was a liar. The fever talisman is one thing, but now he has a Pervert Talisman and a Simp Talisman. What, if he uses it on me, will I become a pervert and a simp?"
"You'll know if you try!"
"Miss Dong, you can grant him his wish!"
Lin Feng sneered.
Dong Yingxue nodded, took out the Pervert Talisman, pointed it at He Yu, and softly shouted 'Ji'!
*Crack!*
He Yu, who had been laughing uncontrollably, was as if struck by some force.
His laughter froze, and under Dong Yingxue's puzzled gaze, he suddenly let out a sinister laugh.
His smile was wicked, and his eyes leered at Dong Yingxue like a wolf eyeing a lamb.
"He Yu, what are you doing?"
Dong Yingxue felt uneasy under He Yu's gaze.
"Haha, little lady, I've been wanting you for a long time. Your stockings are so sexy, they must smell wonderful. Take them off quickly and let me smell them."
"Oh, I can't stand it anymore! Take off your shoes too, I want to smell them all, they must be fragrant!"
As He Yu spoke, he lunged at Dong Yingxue like a ravenous dog, frenzied.
He not only wanted to take off Dong Yingxue's stockings but also her leather boots.
"Are you a pervert!"
Unable to tolerate He Yu's lewd words, Dong Yingxue raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face.
"Wow, I love it! Hit me harder, it's so stimulating!"
He Yu, instead of being angered by the slap, became even more bestial.
"Pervert!"
Dong Yingxue couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him hard in the groin.
*Ouch!*
He Yu cried out in pain and curled up on the ground, writhing.
"See? My Pervert Talisman works quite well. Now you should believe me."
Lin Feng smiled faintly, as practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.
Dong Yingxue suddenly remembered that she had used the Pervert Talisman on He Yu and realized, "Yes, your Pervert Talisman seems truly powerful!"
With that, Dong Yingxue looked at the fever talisman and qi replenishing talisman in her hands, her confidence growing.
"Master, I'll take my leave now. If my mother's ALS is cured, I will certainly reward you handsomely."
Eager to verify the efficacy of the fever talisman and qi replenishing talisman, Dong Yingxue hurried away from the black market.
He Yu, on the other hand, was still stuck in his perverted episode.
At this moment, He Yu Ning, He Yu Qing, and Ji Bo Xiao ambled over after their stroll.
"He Yu, why are you here?"
He Yu Ning saw He Yu curled up on the ground and asked with a frown.
"Sister Yu Ning, I'm so perverted. I really want to smell your stockings. Give them to me!"
He Yu saw He Yu Ning, who was also wearing stockings, and licked his lips, his eyes glowing.
