Chapter 37 - Brother, You're Mean

In fact, Ye Anping heard the man in black when he yelled, but in line with the principle of putting the guests first, he finished the physiotherapy sessions, washed his hands, and went out.

It seemed that Bai Yuexin had been chatting with him all this time.

When Ye Anping walked back to the lobby, he saw that the man's complexion didn't look too good and wondered what they were talking about.

Seeing him come out, Bai Yuexin hurriedly came over and said, "Anping, this man is so strange. He came in and asked me if we were selling Vermilion Bird. Then, I asked him what Vermilion Bird was. He said it was a kind of tea. Then, I wanted him to tell me what kind of tea is that..."

Ye Anping sighed and said, "Sister Bai, do you usually chat a lot?"

"I don't... I was afraid he'd go away, so I was just making conversation with him."

"Well— it's quite late, Sister Bai, you should go back to the sect now. After finishing this last order, I'll close the shop for the day."

"Can't I stay overnight?"

"No."

"Why?"

"You hugged me in bed last night, and I didn't sleep well."

Ye Anping answered bluntly, then ignored her and went to invite the man in black into the back room.

The man in black had been listening to the conversation between him and Bai Yuexin, and after hearing "hugged in bed," he naturally thought of the matter of dual cultivation. Following Ye Anping inside, the surprise in his eyes never disappeared.

However, this was what Ye Anping intended for him to hear.

After all, he would give this man information about the entry selection and how to get into the Black Star. If he was asked how he got the information, he could naturally answer that Bai Yuexin told him, and it would not arouse suspicion.

After entering the inner room, Ye Anping waved his hand and locked the door with his spiritual power, then plastered his homemade soundproofing talismans around the room to show his professionalism.

When the man in black saw this, he nodded in praise and asked, "Little brother, who is that inner disciple of the Black Star?"

"She's just a silly girl who fell in love with me." Ye Anping shrugged and said with a smile.

"A... silly girl..." The man looked surprised. "I think she is in the middle stage of Foundation Building, and also a high-ranking inner sect disciple. Why are you..."

"20% at most. The reward for the Grand Master's storage bag is ten thousand spirit stones, and the reward for capturing Feng Yu Die alive is five thousand spirit stones, which I still have to split with the other four."

Ye Anping raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't you say that there was a total of ten thousand spirit stones this afternoon? Why is there an extra five thousand?"

"Just this afternoon, a new bounty was issued within the sect to capture Feng Yu Die alive." The man hesitated and said, "Little boss, I have a presumptuous request, and I hope you'll agree."

"Tell me."

"The other four people I called don't know that the storage bag of the Grand Master of the Magical Poison Sect was taken by that Feng Yu Die, so they only came for the bounty on her head. So, I hope that you can keep it a secret from them. How about this, I can give you two thousand more spirit stones after the matter is over."

Ye Anping was a little speechless, this man actually wanted to steal the reward secretly.

However, if calculated in this way, his 30% plus two thousand spirit stones would be five thousand.

That was not a small amount. If he had five thousand spirit stones, he could buy a lot of delicious food for his little sister and take her to the market to buy some girls' jewelry and stuff.

Since childhood, all her spirit stones had been used to buy medicinal pills. Now that Pei Lianxue had grown up, it was time for her to receive some beautiful jewelry and lipstick from her big brother.

Ye Anping rested his chin on his hands and began to think, not about whether the reward was reasonable, but about how to get more out of it.

Although this man kept saying that his team would definitely be able to catch Feng Yu Die alive, Ye Anping was still skeptical about this. However, if the team was really too powerful, he would definitely intervene to prevent these people from accidentally injuring his sister.

On the other hand, if this man couldn't catch Feng Yu Die, his reward would be gone.

We're talking about five thousand spirit stones!

It seemed that he would have to find an opportunity to talk to Feng Yu Die privately to see if she could let herself be kidnapped by the Seven Slayers Sect so that he could swindle the reward and then lure the people of the Black Star Sect to kill the Seven Slayers.

"Well, okay." Ye Anping nodded and asked, "How soon will you leave?"

"We're ready anytime. It's up to you to arrange this break-in."

Ye Anping looked out the window and saw that it was completely dark outside, so he said, "Then, let's go now. It's better to make a move while it's nighttime. May I ask what's your name?"

"Liang Zhu." The man replied, cupping his hands.

"Senior Liang, you're too polite." Ye Anping hurriedly cupped his hands in return, and said with a wicked smile, "I am Jiang Ziya."*
