    “Gu Yue Fang Zheng?” Listening to Wei Yang’s report, Shang Yan Fei frowned slightly.


    Gu Yue was a distinct surname, Shang Yan Fei searched through his memories and soon found it.


    “Gu Yue n, one of the three ns of Qing Mao mountain, having hundreds of years of history. Qing


    Mao mountain…” Shang Yan Fei’s gaze brightened as he recalled an intel he got over half a year ago.


    Qing Mao mountain was mysteriously attacked and within a night, changed from a green and lively


    mountain to a deadly domain of ice and snow.


    Even till now, the ice and snow on Qing Mao mountain had yet topletely melt. No one knew what


    happened at Qing Mao mountain, but from all kinds of traces found there, people knew there had been


    a huge battle between Gu Masters.


    Now, Qing Mao mountain’s destruction was ssified as a mysterious event and was already spread


    all over the southern border. As to what caused this, opinions differed from people to people.


    However, to certain people, the traces left on Qing Mao mountain made it obvious. The secret of the


    ten extreme physiques was more or less known to the higher ups of the Gu Master world.


    The moment he got this intel, Shang Yan Fei had also immediately guessed this was brought upon by


    one of the ten extreme physiques, Northern Dark Ice Soul Physique.


    “If that is the case, Gu Yue Fang Zheng’s origins can be exined. The group sent to investigate the


    incident on Mu Bei mountain also sent a letter saying there was no suspicious point.”


    Shang Yan Fei drew up an approximate outline of the whole affairs in his mind.


    “Now, there is only one doubt remaining. Why did they conceal their identities and hide in the caravan?”


    Shang Yan Fei already had many conjectures, but it still needed to be investigated.


    “Right, you sparred with them, how were their skills?” Shang Yan Fei asked.


    Wei Yang’s expression was solemn as he respectfully reported: “Geniuses! Given time, these two will


    definitely surpass me.”


    “Oh, you have such a high opinion of them?” Shang Yan Fei was slightly amazed.


    We Yang nodded and continued: “They might be concealing their cultivation with some Gu worms, but


    being able tost so long in battle, they should at least be rank three. Considering their young age,


    these two should both have A grade aptitude.”


    Shang Yan Fei smiled: “But Wei Yang, A grade aptitude only represents talent and not everything. You,


    yourself, are the best proof of this. You have only B grade aptitude but have be one of my


    external elders. Furthermore, how many A grade talents have died in your hands over these years?”


    In ordinary ns, A grade aptitude was an extraordinary matter.


    However, to Shang n, they were rathermon.


    One reason was because it was arge n and there were many nsmen. Another was because


    they recruited demonic Gu Masters, those demonic Gu Masters who distinguished themselves in battle


    arena definitely had extraordinary aptitudes. And the third reason was because Shang n’s riches


    were as high as a mountain, they had the ability to purchase aptitude changing Gu worms.


    “You praise me too much, lord n leader.” Wei Yang modestly said and continued, “I also understand


    this logic, thus I am even more sure these two are extraordinary.”


    “They have richbat talents and have a sort of innate sense towards the battle situation, as if they


    were born to fight. They also did not have aplete set of Gu worms, but they were able tost for so


    long just with two to three Gu, it truly was amazing.”


    “As to their disposition, they were tough and were not discouraged when disadvantaged. When I


    exerted pressure on them, they were able to make a breakthrough and constantly adjust themselves,


    they also have tacit and great teamwork. As the battle continued, they were able to hold their ground


    even more stably, their improvement was extremely clear.”


    “Individually, the two have some differences. Gu Yue Fang Zheng is straightforward, charging forward


    with iparable bravery and has a lofty disposition. As for that Bai Ning Bing, she is quick-witted with


    a sharp gaze and only moves when she is sure of it, she had been constantly trying to find my


    weakness during the battle. In particr, Gu Yue Fang Zheng admitted his loss calmly when I said I


    possessed a light source Gu, he is broad-minded and absolutely has arger heart than any ordinary


    man.”


    “Lord n leader, these two; one is a young tiger of thends while the other is a dragon whelp of the


    seas . One Yang and one Yin, one domineering and another scheming; a perfectbination, the


    brilliance of twin stars, each enhancing the other’s strength. If we can recruit them, it will be a huge


    asset to Shang n!”


    Shang Yan Fei was moved.


    Before, he did not put Fang and Bai in his eyes, now his interest was greatly aroused as he listened to


    Wei Yang.


    “Wei Yang, you have followed me for many years, I trust in your foresight. But there is no need to


    undervalue yourself, they might not necessarily be able to top you even after they grow up. You are


    hindered bycking aptitude, otherwise with your talent, you would be even more outstanding than


    now. There is no need to worry, if a reform Gu appear, I will definitely help you get it.”


    Reform Gu could raise a Gu Master’s aptitude; it was extremely rare and expensive.


    Wei Yang’s eyes turned red with emotions: “I won’t forget this kindness for as long as I live!”


    “I, Shang Yan Fei, will never treat my loyal followers unfairly. Leave now, continue attending to them for


    a few days and see what they think about Shang n and whether we can recruit them or not.”


    “Yes, n leader!”


    …


    In a blink of an eye, three days passed.


    Nan Qiu garden.


    In the lounge, Fang Yuan and Shang Ya Zi was sitting opposite each other.


    Fang Yuan leisurely tasted the tea while Shang Ya Zi’s expression looked rather unsightly.


    “These few days, I have been sincerelying to look for sir, but you have been raising your price


    again and again. First it was six hundred and fifty thousand, but you have raised it by tens of thousand


    every day and now sir actually wants eight hundred thousand! Is sir possibly ying with me to pass


    time?” Shang Ya Zi was feeling stifled and talked with clenched teeth.


    If it was before, he would have already burst out in anger and smashed the tea cup on Fang Yuan’s


    face.


    But now, he could not do that.


    Why?


    Because this guy could directlyin to the n leader!


    I still don’t know what rtion they have with lord father! These days, Wei Yang has been


    apanying them around the city. What kind of person was Wei Yang? He is known as the third


    general and is lord father’s trusted aide! His actions don’t usually represent himself, but rather lord


    father’s will! But why is lord father giving such deferential treatment to these two guys that appeared


    out of nowhere?


    Shang Ya Zi was bothered and bewildered.


    Since that day, he had been crazily investigating the two.


    But it was in vain.


    He was merely a young master, his authority was limited to Shang n city. He was far from having the


    huge capability of Shang Yan Fei.


    The investigations bore no fruits, so he was forced to make guesses.


    Why is lord father expressing his goodwill? Is it because of the inheritance in their hands? No, an


    inheritance might interest an ordinary n, but not ours. Unless it is the inheritance of a rank six Gu


    Immortal, it would just be icing on the cake.


    Or is it because they were talents? No way, there are so many loyal demonic Gu Masters in the battle


    stage, they would die to join Shang n, and are extremely skilled in fighting. If father is not interested


    in those people, why would he want these two?


    No matter how he thought about it, Shang Ya Zi could not think of an answer.


    When these two guesses were rejected, a thought emerged in Shang Ya Zi’s mind.


    Are these two father’s illegitimate child? Isn’t Shang Tuo Hai, the current young n leader, father’s


    illegitimate child?


    Shang Ya Zi pondered it again and felt that it couldn’t be.


    The implication of being father’s bloodline is too great; when Shang Tuo Hai was discovered, he was


    firmly protected and safeguarded, unlike the these two.


    Shang Ya Zi kept on agonizing over this but could not make progress.


    And it was because of this, he was even more afraid of Fang and Bai. The most terrifying things were


    often the unknown.


    Fang Yuan could tell this young master Shang Ya Zi was bing more and more restless and


    impatient over these few days.


    This was what he wanted to see.


    This was also one of the reasons he was intentionally raising the prices every day.


    If he directly raised six hundred and fifty thousand to eight hundred thousand, the negotiations would


    definitely copse. But by raising the price by tens of thousands time and again, it would instead wear


    down Shang Ya Zi’s resistance in his firm resolute heart.


    The time was ripe.


    Fang Yuan ced the teacup down and smiled: “Everything has their worth. This might only be a Gu


    Master’s inheritance to others, but to you, esteemed young master, it is the final hope to protect your


    young master status.”


    “As such, the price should be a little higher, and as the evaluation date draws closer, the price for this


    inheritance will naturally keep on getting higher. Thus, I have been increasing the price every other day,


    isn’t this something natural?”

    “Hehe, if the price is lowered, how could it be worthy of your final hope? How could it be worthy of such


    an important position as Shang n’s young master? After all, only Shang n young masters can


    compete for young n leader’s position.”


    Shang Ya Zi’s eyes shook with anger.


    This was tant ckmailing, this guy was raising the price as he pleased!


    How could he be so shameless?


    Shang Ya Zi wished he could chop Fang Yuan into pieces. But he thought of the position of young


    master and was able to barely restrain himself: “You are really scheming. If I spend eight hundred


    thousand, it will be aplete loss and will instead lower my evaluation. Those elders in charge of


    evaluation are not stupid! Thus, I simply can’t buy it at this price.”


    Fang Yuan had already expected this answer; the corner of his lips slightly curled up into a smile:


    “Therefore, I have a good solution. I will be openly selling it to you in six hundred and fifty thousand, but


    you will actually be giving me eight hundred thousand. You will maintain your young master’s position


    and I will be getting a reasonable price, it is aplete win-win situation.”


    Shang Ya Zi’s expression immediately changed and stared at Fang Yuan with wide eyes:”You want me


    to make a false ount? This is impossible! If I am found out, no matter when, my young master’s


    status will be revoked and moreover, I will receive a severe punishment.”


    Fang Yuan gave a frivolous look: “You can’t say that. Who said anything about false ount? I am only


    selling the secret recipe to you, and you feeling that I am an upright man, kindly gave me some


    primeval stones as a gift. There is simply no rtion between the two!”


    At that instance, Shang Ya Zi could only look at Fang Yuan, stupefied and speechless.


    He had previously thought Fang Yuan was shameless, but now saw that he had greatly underestimated


    this guy’s shamelessness!
