Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

If the middle-aged man in the Tang suit could hear Da Huang's telepathic message right now, he would definitely be so angry that he would get up again.

He, a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining, was actually defeated by a dog. Where can you even begin to reason with him?

He never imagined, even in his death, that this penniless mongrel, with nothing but a collar, would be able to control hidden weapons...

Where did the main hidden weapons come from? How could this happen?

No, he was unwilling to accept it—

But life doesn't offer second chances; once you've failed, you've failed.

It was his fate to be defeated by Da Huang.

Dahuang is, after all, a dog cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and has even consumed the inner core of a giant snake and various other pills.

Its strength is beyond doubt.

Ye Chen had already arrived in the courtyard. He already knew about everything that had just happened.

The reason he didn't take action himself was simply to see how much progress Da Huang had made during this period.

It was quite eye-catching, somewhat beyond Ye Chen's expectations.

Big Yellow acted decisively; the dog was ruthless and didn't talk much.

He swiftly and decisively defeated his opponent without uttering a single wasted word.

Of course, the main problem is that it can't talk.

It seems that being bad at speaking has its advantages.

Experts often die from talking too much, and here's a typical example right here.

Upon seeing Ye Chen emerge, Da Huang couldn't resist sending a telepathic message to boast, "Master, that guy was acting suspiciously; he was clearly no good. I took care of him in self-defense!"

"Not bad, you've improved. Your movements were clean and efficient. Keep practicing, but don't be arrogant or complacent. This is a reward for your meritorious service in protecting the courtyard!"

Ye Chen casually tossed a Profound Origin Golden Pill to it.

Big Yellow Teeth came out and took the Xuan Yuan Golden Pill, putting it into the Sumeru Needle Bag.

"Thank you, Master. Master, what should we do with this guy? Should I dig a hole and bury him?" Big Yellow asked eagerly.

Like lackeys, they vowed to serve Ye Chen faithfully for the rest of their lives.

Ye Chen ignored the dog and stepped forward to take the black box from the middle-aged man in the Tang suit.

The black box did indeed exude a faint aura of danger.

Spirit-Breaking Needles? Specifically designed for cultivators?

It looked like a decent hidden weapon; even he sensed a faint danger from it.

If you're caught off guard and get hit by this thing, you're probably in for a rough time!

Those below the Foundation Establishment stage are unlikely to escape unscathed; even Foundation Establishment cultivators will probably have to put in some effort to deal with it.

Ye Chen checked the trading system and was surprised to find that this thing could actually be traded.

Tradeable item: Breaking Formation Bow.

Gather spiritual energy into arrows, capable of piercing through countless formations!

Even a brief introduction speaks volumes!

The Spirit-Breaking Needle is clearly a one-time use item, at least for him.

Disposable items are convenient, but they can be inconvenient to reuse later.

This Breaking Formation Bow is a weapon that can be reused.

Comparing the two, the Breaking Formation Bow is better; any normal person knows which to choose!

Not bad, that's a good start. A new day, new achievements.

Ye Chen quickly dealt with the situation, then glanced at a property surveillance camera not far away. With a wave of his hand, a film on the camera was blown away, and the camera returned to normal.

That's right, Ye Chen blocked the surveillance camera just now, mainly to prevent any trouble from happening.

If the security guards see this, they'll be so scared they'll call the police.

In the security room, a middle-aged security guard stared at the monitor screen with some doubt: "Xiao Xu, there seems to be a problem with the security cameras in Mr. Ye's area. Could you take the manager to take a look? Mr. Ye usually treats his men well, so we can't let any thieves break in."

"Alright, if there really is such a blind thief, I'll break his legs!"

"Oh wait, it's fine now. It seems to be back to normal. It was probably blocked by something!"

"Forget it, to be on the safe side, I'll take some men over to check it out, just in case it's just some petty thief's trick!" Xiao Xu said thoughtfully.

"Okay, then go and do it!"

A moment later, Xiao Xu, accompanied by two security guards, patrolled to the front of Ye Chen's villa.

Seeing that Ye Chen was drinking tea in the courtyard and seemed to be doing nothing, they were relieved.

"Good morning, Mr. Ye!" Xiao Xu greeted Ye Chen with a smile.

"Good morning, patrolling so early!" Ye Chen waved.

"Oh, the security camera might have been blocked by something, so we came over to check it out!" Xiao Xu explained.

"You guys are quite meticulous in your work. Why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?" Ye Chi gave a thumbs up.

"No, we need to continue our patrol. Mr. Ye, we'll be leaving now!" Xiao Xu and his men prepared to depart.

"Wait a minute, someone brought me a few packs of cigarettes. I haven't smoked them myself, so you can take them back and share them with the guys!"

As Ye Chen spoke, he picked up a red bag, stood up, and walked out, stuffing the red bag into Xiao Xu's hand.

"Uh, Mr. Ye, this isn't quite right!" Xiao Xu hesitated.

"I didn't smoke it, it's just a waste to leave it there. Take it and divide it up, stop dawdling!" Ye Chen waved his hand.

"Well, then I'll thank Mr. Ye on behalf of my brothers!" Xiao Xu grinned.

"We'll be leaving now. Please feel free to contact us if you need anything, Mr. Ye!"

Ye Chen nodded and watched them leave.

These security guards are paying close attention to his family now; they only stayed a short while before they came knocking, thinking the security camera was broken.

With this security, ordinary thieves really can't get close to his house.

Even if you get close, you'll probably be spotted by security very quickly.

Of course, even without security guards, with Big Yellow at home, let alone thieves, even cultivators can't get close.

A cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining was killed off without a word.

However, this incident also shows that it's always good to have a good relationship with the security department.

At the very least, people will pay more attention to your family's affairs.

It's true that being a security guard is their job, and patrolling is their job responsibility, but let's make things a little more humane, so that everyone can benefit!

In the afternoon, Ye Chen traded away the Formation-Breaking Bow.

This is one of the few weapons available in the trading system.

Ye Chen stared at the ruler-shaped object in his hand, completely bewildered. Damn, he wasn't very well-educated; don't try to fool him!

What kind of bow is this long? At the very least, it should have the shape of a bow, right?

What about the bowstring?

The ruler-shaped object is about 30 centimeters long, silver in color, and slightly curved on both sides, somewhat resembling the middle section of a recurve bow handle.

Could it be broken and need to be pieced together?

Ye Chen said that he came from the countryside and felt a bit cheated.

However, to be fair, the bow handle is quite heavy, probably weighing three to five pounds, I don't know what material it's made of.

Ye Chen observed for a moment and then began to try to focus his attention on spiritual energy.

Since it's a weapon, it might change if spiritual energy is injected into it.

As Ye Chen had predicted, the ruler-shaped object in his hand changed after he injected spiritual energy into it.

Two bow-shaped pieces extend from both sides of the ruler-shaped object. They are also entirely silver, but they are not solid; they are translucent.

Even the bowstring was translucent, as if it were a manifestation of spiritual energy!
