‘That is so much money…’
The Dark Evil Spirit was lost in thoughts. He had been working so hard for his entire life, dancing between life and death, but all the money he had earned in his life was less than only seven hundred purple spirit coins.
After the money he spent for living, all he had saved was no more than ninety purple spirit coins.
Well, he only had eighty-nine purple spirit coins.
What about his young master?
Casually and playfully, his young master took out five blocks of metals… and sold them for over eight hundred and ninety thousand purple spirit coins!
Eighty-nine coins in one lifetime.
One day, in an auction—eight hundred and ninety thousand!
What did that mean?
Ten thousand times!
The Dark Evil Spirit was in tears.
He thought about how Ye Xiao spent his money earlier. When Ye Xiao was spending his money, he thought it was extravagant. Now he knew that he was just being narrow-minded and short-sighted. He should know better about living. Money was nothing when it came to enjoying life. He could spend as much as he wanted to make life easier, as long as he could earn enough!
The Dark Evil Spirit felt that he had lived such a miserable life. He didn’t even live as well as dogs…
“After the auction, my views of the world changed. All I can do is to stay under the shining lights of my young master!”
The Dark Evil Spirit showed a dark face and said that in a sorrowful voice.
Ye Xiao laughed.
“What do you have in mind about the fight tomorrow?” Ye Xiao looked at the Dark Evil Spirit.
The Dark Evil Spirit sighed and said, “Master, that Bai Long is a capable man.”
Ye Xiao threw up his eyebrows and said, “Oh? What do you mean?”
“I mean we should make him our man.” The Dark Evil Spirit sincerely said. “There are only two people under your command; Qiu Luo and me. Qiu Luo can reach level four of the Divinity Origin Stage after a full recovery, which means he is even more powerful than me. However, he is not at the moment. Now he is only at level four of the Faery Origin Stage. He still needs a long time to recover.”
“He can’t fully recover within a short time.”
“Besides, because of Qiu Luo, we have messed with the Grey Parasol Sword Sect.” The Dark Evil Spirit said, “We won’t be able to defend ourselves when the Grey Parasol Sword Sect attacks. After all, you can’t get help from your family clan at the moment. We are too much weaker than the Grey Parasol Sword Sect… We need new blood. We need somebody powerful.
“The problem is that we are not good enough to attract the truly powerful cultivators yet…”
“Other than the Grey Parasol Sword Sect thing, we also need people to help us on the business of the Monarch’s Hall. We need a lot of people. Bai Long is actually a good guy.
“Back to the days, Bai Long messed with some wrong guy, and he got poisoned and was hunted for a long way. When he was about to get caught, Sun Shaoping’s father, Sun Yunzhu saved his life by helping him escape. When Bai Long recovered, he took revenge and then decided to return the favor.”
“Sun Yunzhu said that he only wanted a peaceful life, but a man without a good guard was always in danger.”
“That was why Bai Long became his guard and protect his entire family. In fact, he was returning the favor to Sun.”
“Bai Long was at level two of the Divinity Origin Stage. How would he be a guard of a useless level seven Faery Origin Stage man? Bai Long is a bit inflexible, but he is a grateful man. It won’t be easy to ask him to leave Sun.”
The Dark Evil Spirit chuckled.
“I saw how Sun Shaoping treated Bai Long. I don’t think he wants to serve that mean master, does he?” Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up.
“He doesn’t.” The Dark Evil Spirit said with a smile, “It is a stupid story… Sun Shaoping and his father bully the weak and fear the strong. They never mess with those who were more powerful than them. Since Bai Long became their guard, he had never actually seen anything serious happen. There was no chance for him to show his incredible capability. Sun Yunzhu thought that he was only an ordinary cultivator he saved. For him, Bai Yun was just a man who had nowhere to go and turned out to be a loyal man… That is all…”
“Bai Long in their house is just the head of all guards, which won’t bring him any benefit.”
“I heard Sun Shaoping speaking your name. I thought he knew quite much about you. He actually wanted to bet on the fight between you and Bai Long. I thought he might be quite well-informed. Is he not?” Ye Xiao asked in shock.
“No, he isn’t. You were wrong. I fought Bai Long once. We roughly have the same power. If either of us wants to defeat the other, we have to try to kill each other. Sun Shaoping must have heard about my name from Bai Long. He thought I was weak. That’s all.” The Dark Evil Spirit said.
“Well… Does it mean that Sun never really knew Bai Long, and they never see him as their brother or trusted man?” Ye Xiao seemed to be curious.
“That’s right.” The Dark Evil Spirit said, “Otherwise, why would Sun Yunzhu let Bai Long stay with his stupid son… In fact, it can be easily told from how Sun Shaoping neglects Bai Long.”
The Dark Evil Spirit sounded a little happy somehow.
He saw it clearly. Ye Xiao kept protecting him, standing on his side, and it truly made Bai Long jealous.
It was true that there was always a better life to live!
‘Humph! You don’t get along well with your masters! Blame yourself!’
“I will think about it…” Ye Xiao said, “If we can have him on our side…”
Suddenly, he seemed to be touched
Something was moving inside the Boundless Space.
‘Is it Erhuo? Or is it the golden hawk?’
The Dark Evil Spirit was still talking, and suddenly…
“Meow…”
The Dark Evil Spirit saw a fluffy cute little animal appear on Ye Xiao’s shoulder.
The cat had a pair of big round eyes, staring at the Dark Evil Spirit.
It was so adorable.
The Dark Evil Spirit was so happy to see it!
