A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Seeing this, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction...

"Now that's what you call sincerity..."

"Wouldn't it be better if he were this sensible earlier?"

After saying that, he waved his hand and collected all the storage bags and spirit-replenishing pills on the ground, putting them all into one of the storage bags and then into his pocket...

Vendor: ???

The merchants were heartbroken and could only watch helplessly as Ye Chen took away all their possessions...

They were the ones who originally planned to ambush and rob people, but they ended up being robbed instead...

What kind of situation is this...?

Lin Ningxue and Lin Wanli, who were standing to the side, were stunned. Their gazes towards Ye Chen instantly filled with respect...

They genuinely hadn't expected Ye Chen to do something like this; they thought he just wanted to retrieve his spirit-replenishing pills, but they never imagined he would rob them all...

No wonder he stood there without saying a word; he was waiting for these people to hand over their storage bags on their own...

If they refuse to behave themselves, Ye Chen will naturally step in to help them do so...

Ye Chen put away his storage bag, and as he looked up, he was met with the resentful gazes of the merchants...

Seeing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly...

"What... you're not happy about it?"

"If you don't want to give it to me, I can return it to you..."

"I never force others to do anything..."

"At worst... I'll just kill you all and dump you in the woods..."

As he spoke, he made a gesture as if to take out a storage bag...

Vendor: ???

The vendors were completely terrified...

Who the hell would dare to disagree?

He wouldn't force him anymore, but he was going to kill someone...

In the instant they realized what was happening, they frantically waved their hands at Ye Chen, creating afterimages as they did so...

"No, no, no... I'd love to, I'd love to..."

"Don't worry, senior brother, I'm not forcing you at all. You can take this storage bag..."

"Don't kill me, I don't want the storage bag anymore..."

......

The men cried out and begged for mercy; they dared not utter the slightest complaint.

This is going to be fatal!

Hearing what they said, Ye Chen was finally satisfied. He turned to look at Lin Ningxue and Lin Wanli beside him and greeted them.

"let's go..."

After saying that, he walked towards the mountain path ahead...

Seeing this, Lin Ningxue and Lin Wanli followed...

Only after the three figures had walked far away and disappeared from sight did the vendors collapse to the ground in fright. Their hearts, which had been pounding in their chests, finally relaxed, though their faces showed a mixture of fear and relief...

"It's over, everything's ruined..."

"Now not only are the pills gone, but the spirit stones are gone too..."

"Where did these ruthless individuals come from...? Are there such powerful disciples in the outer sect?"

"That guy who made the move earlier...could he really be the sword fanatic Lin Wanli?"

"Why am I so unlucky to run into them..."

......

The group looked utterly dejected, their spirits at rock bottom...

He intended to make a fortune by hyping up the Spirit Replenishing Pill, but instead of earning spirit stones, he lost his entire fortune...

They didn't even seriously injure him...

On the fork in the road not far away...

Lin Wanli suddenly stopped and looked at Ye Chen with a reluctant expression.

"Senior brother, I'll head back now. I'll come to Tianling Peak to find you again tomorrow..."

His cave dwelling wasn't on Tianling Peak, so it wasn't on the way at this time...

If it weren't so late, he would have liked to ask Ye Chen for some pointers on swordsmanship...

After all, under Ye Chen's guidance, his swordsmanship had indeed become stronger.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen and Lin Ningxue also stopped, turned to look at Lin Wanli, and nodded slightly.

"OK..."

Ye Chen responded, then reached into his robes and took out a Rank 6 Spirit Replenishing Pill, handing it over...

"You deserve a lot of credit for tonight's haul. I won't share the spirit stones and pills we just stole with you; here, take this pill..."

If Lin Wanli hadn't led him to the black market, he wouldn't have gained so many spirit stones and pills. He should really thank him...

Moreover, when they were robbed on the road, it was Lin Wanli who stepped in and resolved the trouble, thus obtaining these spirit stones, pills, and even some magical artifacts...

If we're talking about dividing the spoils, Lin Wanli definitely deserves a share, but Ye Chen is offering a sixth-grade Spirit-Replenishing Pill as a substitute...

"this..."

Lin Wanli initially wanted to wave his hand in refusal, after all, he could never repay the kindness of Ye Chen in instructing him in swordsmanship, and it was just a small favor...

The moment he saw the sixth-grade spirit-replenishing pill, his soul seemed to be stolen away; his eyes were fixed on the pill, unable to look away...

"Senior brother, since you're going to give it to me, then I won't stand on ceremony..."

As if afraid Ye Chen would change his mind, Lin Wanli hurriedly and with a smile reached out to take the sixth-grade spirit-replenishing pill, carefully placing it into his pocket...

He felt he had struck gold, since all those spirit stones and pills combined couldn't even buy a single Rank 6 Spirit Replenishing Pill. Ye Chen also felt he had made a profit, as these Spirit Replenishing Pills could be refined into thousands of Rank 6 Spirit Replenishing Pills...

Ye Chen took out a sixth-grade spirit-replenishing pill from his pocket, turned around and handed it to Lin Ningxue...

"Junior sister, this one is for you..."

Lin Ningxue was taken aback, somewhat surprised.

"Senior brother, I don't think I need to?"

"I wasn't much help tonight; it was Senior Brother Lin who did all the work..."

"This pill is far too precious..."

She quickly waved her hand, embarrassed to accept it.

Ye Chen smiled at her and handed her the sixth-grade spirit-replenishing pill...

"Keep it...didn't you help sell the pills before?"

"You deserve it..."

Although Lin Ningxue didn't participate in the fight, she accompanied the group the whole way. Everyone should get a share of the spoils; there shouldn't be favoritism. Besides, Lin Ningxue didn't slack off at all when selling the Spirit-Replenishing Pills...

"this..."

"Thank you so much, senior brother!"

Seeing Ye Chen say this, Lin Ningxue stopped refusing, reached out and took the pill, looking at Ye Chen with gratitude.

Lin Wanli, standing to the side, was somewhat shocked upon seeing this...

Who exactly is this senior brother? How does he have so many Rank 6 pills?

Even the scions of prestigious families within the sects weren't as extravagant as him...

"Let's go..."

"It's getting late, let's head back to Tianling Peak..."

Ye Chen greeted Lin Ningxue.

"Senior brother, junior sister Lin, see you tomorrow..."

Lin Wanli looked at the two of them and said, wishing he could travel with them...

I'm thinking of going to Tianling Peak tomorrow to snatch a cave dwelling, so I can live with my senior brothers and sisters...

My junior sister's cooking is so delicious! I can definitely keep mooching meals from her in the future...
