Chapter 818 Ye Fox, say something!
"Ye Fox, you damn fool, explain yourself clearly! What do you mean?!"
"Your coordinates! I'll be there right away!"
"You stay right there and don't move!"
"Ye Fox, say something!"
Roars erupted from the communication device, the terrifying sound waves shaking the surrounding snow and causing it to scatter.
Ye Nanxiao squatted to one side, looking at the communication soul tool that had fallen into the snow, and pondered whether to add a restriction to the communication soul tool, a restriction that varies from person to person, since some people's voices are just too loud.
For example, the head of Mingdetang is not tall but has a loud voice!
"Ye Fox! Ye Fox, say something!"
"You swindler! You swindler!"
Jing Hongchen, on the other end of the communication soul tool, was grinding his teeth to dust. What did Ye Huli, that cunning merchant, mean by getting the goods but expecting people to figure it out themselves?
Ye Nanxiao squatted down and waited for a while until the communication soul tool stopped vibrating before taking it back and saying, "Hall Master, listen to me, don't be anxious, don't be anxious."
Jing Hongchen took a deep breath. He knew that Ye Nanxiao wouldn't have called him if he were unreliable, and that Ye Nanxiao's words now meant he was probably trying to trick him again.
"You unscrupulous merchant! Tell me! What kind of soul tool have you set your sights on this old man's possession this time?" Jing Hongchen said through gritted teeth.
Ye Nanxiao felt that Jing Hongchen seemed to have some misunderstanding about him. Was he a greedy and unscrupulous merchant?
I strictly adhered to the labor contract! I put in exactly what I could earn!
"Master, I think you've misunderstood! That's not what I was talking about!" Ye Nanxiao said seriously.
"I'll give you another level nine soul tool as payment! Consider it the final settlement of your commission!" Jing Hongchen said.
"No, Master, please listen to me first."
"Two at most! One more! No more than that! They were all made by my own hands!"
Jing Hongchen gripped the communication device in his hand and stared wide-eyed.
Ye Nanxiao paused for a moment. This old fox, Jing Hongchen, actually raised the price on his own initiative?
Something's not quite right.
Although he coveted those two soul tools, Jing Hongchen had truly misunderstood him this time.
"Master, what I really wanted to say was that the Crimson Toad King gave me a portion of its origin and essence blood. I think that should be enough. If it's not enough, that Crimson Toad King has over 50,000 years of cultivation. You can handle that yourself." Ye Nanxiao finished speaking quickly and waited for Jing Hongchen's response.
Jing Hongchen pondered in silence. Ye Nanxiao was right. Meng Hongchen's current condition was definitely not capable of withstanding a 50,000-year-old soul ring, let alone a primordial soul beast.
"As for the source, can Meng'er dispel the ice poison controlling her body?" Jing Hongchen asked.
"Theoretically speaking, there is no problem. The source and essence blood are both infused with the power essence of the Crimson Toad King. By following the guidance of that power to control the ice poison, the ice poison of the Crimson Toad can be controlled. This is what the Crimson Toad King told me," Ye Nanxiao replied.
Jing Hongchen hummed in agreement. Since Ye Nanxiao was able to obtain the origin and essence blood from that Crimson Toad Emperor, and also receive verbal explanations, there shouldn't be any problems.
"So, where are you now? I'll send someone to meet you," Jing Hongchen said.
"What's wrong? Such a big matter, why don't you come in person?" Ye Nanxiao raised an eyebrow. Could it be that this old fox doesn't trust him?
Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen immediately had a bad feeling. "I am currently His Majesty's attendant; how could I possibly escape Mingdu?"
"That's a pity. I was hoping to meet the hall master, have a chat, and maybe even see if I could buy a level nine soul tool at cost price." Ye Nanxiao smiled. With his relationship with Jing Hongchen, he had just solved such a big problem for him—the ice poison in Meng Hongchen's body.
Buying a level-nine soul tool from Mingde Hall at cost price isn't unreasonable, is it?
"Tsk, you want to chat with me, kid? I bet it's not a chat, but you really want to force me to give you a level nine soul tool, right?" Jing Hongchen scoffed at Ye Nanxiao's claim of buying the soul tool at cost price.
Once the price drops for Ye Nanxiao, there's no going back up; it's no wonder the price is going to fall below that level.
"Alright, where does the hall master want to meet with the people?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Jing Hongchen put down the phone briefly, raised his hand and thought for a moment. It seemed that there were only a few cities near the far north.
It would take a lot of time for our own people to get there, and besides, Xu Tianran has now issued a series of orders from the shadows, so our people certainly can't just fly straight there in a swagger.
However, if it's a horse-drawn carriage, it needs to be registered. Once registered, information will be entered into the system, and Xu Tianran will definitely know what he's doing.
He wasn't afraid that Xu Tianran would find out he was seeking the antidote for Zhu Qingbing's toad poison; he was afraid that Xu Tianran would find out he was secretly maintaining contact and cooperation with Ye Nanxiao.
After listening to the communication soul tool for a long time without receiving a response, Ye Nanxiao thought for a moment and understood what Jing Hongchen was worried about.
"Master, since we can't get out of Mingdu, why don't we wait for me to return? Compared to traveling overland from Mingdu to the far north, it would take at least half a month."
"You think you can get back quickly? Let me tell you, the airspace within the Empire's borders is now under control. Even I, this old man, don't have the face to take off in front of those scoundrels!"
Jing Hongchen had a headache. Although he was still the head of Mingde Hall and enjoyed a great reputation, he was nothing in front of the army. Moreover, Mingde Hall was no longer his personal fiefdom.
In the past, he could have relied on Mingde Hall to supply soul tools to the military's high-ranking officers and enjoy a certain prestige in the military.
The Crimson Toad King, whom I've always longed for, has now been obtained, along with its essence and blood, but it's far away in the far north.
How could Jing Hongchen not be anxious?
"That's naturally my skill, Hall Master, you don't need to worry. We've cooperated many times, when have you ever seen me fail?" Ye Nanxiao said with some pride.
Jing Hongchen, who was on the other end of the communication, curled her lips and thought to herself, "This shrewd merchant is indeed very capable, otherwise his beloved granddaughter wouldn't be so concerned about him. It's a pity that he has a good appearance but not a smart one. He's always thinking about swindling people."
"Nanxiao, since you've said so, then I'll wait for your good news in Mingdu?" Jing Hongchen asked.
"Master, why play games with me? Merchants don't get up early for nothing." Ye Nanxiao's lips curled up slightly.
"Tsk, you shrewd businessman! Tell me! What do you want!" Jing Hongchen said angrily.
Ye Nanxiao paused for a moment, then said, "I need to know the situation in Mingdu."
The latest novel is first published here!
Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen almost blurted out the word "refuse," but he managed to hold it back.
He released his soul power, carefully sensing his surroundings. Then he set up two box-shaped soul tools inlaid with round jade stones. After confirming several times that no one was around, he asked in a low voice, "Nanxiao, your soul communication should be encrypted, right?"
"Please speak, Master. Any product from Aodu is guaranteed to be of the highest quality. No one in this world has ever been able to hack into my communications!" Ye Nanxiao said proudly.
The communication soul tool was created by him and Xuan Ziwen. Even the communication lines and signal devices are unique in the world. Even if someone could obtain Xuan Ziwen's previous information on communication, they would not think of the communication lines.
Jing Hongchen closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and whispered several words: "Sky, the whole city, undercurrents, Starry Sky Douluo!"
After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the communication line. He knew that Ye Nanxiao had understood.
Two minutes later, Ye Nanxiao's voice came again: "Thank you, Hall Master. Please wait for good news."
"Hmph, you cunning merchant... Never mind, I look forward to seeing you in Mingdu," Jing Hongchen sighed.
The communication device fell silent, and Ye Nanxiao put it away.
"Starry Sky Douluo, Ye Yulin, this is going to be a bit troublesome."
Ye Nanxiao stood on the floating ice, his body low to the ground, and flew quickly.
In his plan, the Starry Sky Douluo, known as the "Father of High-Altitude Soul Guidance Devices," was also on the recruitment list, and was one of the top few.
According to the original world's course, Ye Yulin shouldn't have made a move in Mingdu. Instead, she should have only made her move after Xu Tianran had fully initiated the war.
"High-altitude soul guidance devices—only those with these can gain air superiority and dominate the course of land battles. That's air support. How do we get that old man over here?"
Ye Nanxiao squatted on the ice floe, lost in thought.
With his current arsenal, the only weapon he has created capable of dealing with high-altitude soul guides is the full-coverage sniper cannon.
Previously, Li Yuanren had sent people to try to contact Ye Yulin, but Li Yuanren's status was not enough in front of Ye Yulin. Even the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, which controlled 40% of the Sun Moon Empire's business, could only get a second glance from this Starry Sky Douluo.
In addition, Ye Yulin is usually elusive and her whereabouts are unpredictable, making it even more difficult to contact her.
To date, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce has had fewer than a handful of contacts with Starry Sky Douluo Ye Yulin.
"Xiao'er, why are you so obsessed with this person?" Xue Di appeared behind Ye Nanxiao and pulled him into her arms.
Ye Nanxiao rubbed his temples, which were throbbing from thinking at high speed, and explained, "High-altitude soul guides can strike the ground from extremely high altitudes. With ground support to confirm the target, they can precisely cover the target area with firepower. This is a terrifying attack capability."
"That old man specializes in this; I need his knowledge and skills."
As Ye Nanxiao spoke, he touched the ring on his left hand, where a large pile of draft paper lay quietly deep inside.
One of the draft papers depicts a soul guide consisting of four sets of huge mechanical prisms. Each set of mechanical prisms has many cannons, and the main cannon is specially marked with three S letters indicating its level.
"That old man is incredibly capable. He single-handedly developed a ground-based soul-guided device that can ascend into the sky. If I could win him over, my satellite project would be secured!"
