"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm." Seeing the two of them on edge and wary of him, Yang Fei couldn't help but twitch his mouth and hurriedly explained.

Then, he directly pulled out a large handful of top-grade spirit stones from his storage bag.

Without even counting, he tossed them directly to Hai Mo and Yan Wei and said, "Based on the price of these top-grade spirit stones, I'm preordering some Foundation Establishment Pills and similar elixirs. Oh, and do try to bring more elixirs next time. Also, aim for finished or even top-grade elixirs, and less of the subpar ones. I assure you, I'll offer a fair price; you won't be treated unfairly."

After saying that, he swiftly stuffed five top-grade spirit stones into the hands of both Hai Mo and Yan Wei, winked, and clasped his hands in salute, "Gentlemen, when you return, please speak favorably of us. The cultivation community on Earth is very sincere in establishing a long-term cooperative relationship with the Lingxiao Sect."

Though Hai Mo and Yan Wei were second-generation immortals and considerably wealthier than most Foundation Establishment cultivators, the value of five top-grade spirit stones was still significant enough to leave a favorable impression of Yang Fei on them.

Plus, given the sect's stance, they both provided Yang Fei a small favor in return. Yan Wei said, "Don't worry, Yang, as long as you continue using spirit stones of this quality for transactions, not only will our Lingxiao Sect cooperate with you, but other cultivation forces in the Southern Domain would also be inclined to collaborate as well."

Hai Mo added, "We came this time to test the waters and show both parties' willingness to cooperate. As for any future transactions and how to resolve the matter of the Flame Moon Sect, Great Dao Sect, and the three prominent cultivation families not pursuing the grievances of their disciples being killed by the Earth cultivation community, that still needs to be discussed slowly between your upper management and ours."

Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang furrowed their brows slightly.

Indeed, the cultivation world of the Southern Domain intends to settle old scores regarding their disciples who were killed.

After all, lives were indeed taken, and the other party, being a formidable cultivation force, rightfully seeks accountability, otherwise, they can't explain it to their sects.

It all depends on how they intend to pursue it.

If it's life for a life, then there's nothing to discuss.

But Yang Fei believed they wouldn't be that forceful. Since they opted to trade with the cultivation community on Earth, they must value Earth's cultivation resources more. As long as the interests are significant enough, grievances and hostilities can be forgotten.

Currently, the Earth cultivation community requires ample time to develop and needs a steady supply of elixir resources from the cultivation world. Thus, ensuring sufficient peace is crucial for discreet growth.

Therefore, yielding a bit, taking a loss is something unavoidable.

As long as those sects' demands aren't excessive, Yang Fei plans to choose to endure temporarily.

He said, "Alright, we'll wait here. I hope your sect's upper management makes a decision soon and discusses it with other cultivation forces. I certainly won't shirk any compensations that need to be made."

Seeing him say this, both Hai Mo and Yan Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

It appeared this young man truly desires to cooperate with the Southern Domain cultivation forces, showing full sincerity.

"Alright, I'll report everything truthfully." Hai Mo said.

Yang Fei clasped his hands in salute.

Hai Mo and Yan Wei jumped onto the spirit ship, preparing to return to the Southern Domain.

At this moment, Yan Wei softly reminded Hai Mo, "You haven't mentioned what Sect Master Ling instructed yet."

Hai Mo slapped his forehead, "Oh, look at my memory."

He hurriedly turned back and, with a complex expression, looked at Yang Fei and said, "By the way, Yang, when we came over, Sect Master Ling Shuanghua from the Flame Moon Sect asked me to relay a message to you."

Yang Fei's heart skipped a beat.

He had killed numerous disciples of the Flame Moon Sect and seized several treasures belonging to a Core Formation Master of the sect. Now, the sect master had sent a message, which likely wasn't good news.

"Go ahead." Yang Fei said.

Hai Mo conveyed Ling Shuanghua's message verbatim.

Yang Fei chuckled, pulling out the Glazed Soul-Seizing Banner and Mixed Element Bell, "The Flame Moon Sect's Sect Master wants these two magic treasures returned?"

Hai Mo and Yan Wei both nodded. Yan Wei, finding Yang Fei reasonable, gently reminded, "These two treasures are very famous in the Southern Domain cultivation world, highly valued by the Flame Moon Sect. They wouldn't let them go easily."

Yang Fei was quite fond of these two magic treasures too.

The Glazed Soul-Seizing Banner was redundant with the Soul Binding Rope in hand, but the Mixed Element Bell, a defensive treasure, was very satisfactory to him, and he was reluctant to return it.

But he also knew that the Southern Domain had three two-star sects, and the Flame Moon Sect was one of them.

He killed the most disciples from the Flame Moon Sect and took two of their top-grade treasures. If he didn't give an explanation or express a stance on this issue, the sect executives couldn't save face, and the sect wouldn't let Earth rest, which would lead to endless attacks and harassment, hindering cultivation and growth.

But asking him to willingly return what was in hand was impossible.

The killings were justified; those people attacked Earth first, which in the cultivation world is the root of survival of the fittest, the victors write history, and no one can blame another.

Yet the other party is still a disciple of a two-star sect with significant background, and reputation is hugely important.

Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Yang Fei said, "Please inform the Flame Moon Sect's sect master, since these two treasures are so important to them, they should offer a comparable amount of elixirs and magic swords in exchange."

Initially, Hai Mo and Yan Wei assumed Yang Fei would yield to the Flame Moon Sect's prestige and, wanting to cooperate with the cultivation community in the Southern Domain, would hand over the treasures. They were surprised by his response.

Both couldn't help but admire this Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Even in an overwhelmingly weaker position, he dared to negotiate terms with the Flame Moon Sect—truly a hard nut from Earth.

"Rest assured, Yang, I will relay your words accurately." Hai Mo said.

"Farewell," Yan Wei clasped his hands.

"Farewell!"

After bidding farewell, Hai Mo and Yan Wei controlled their spirit ship to enter the teleportation channel, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

In the Southern Domain, the sect masters of the three two-star sects were still waiting there.

Seeing Hai Mo and Yan Wei return so quickly, everyone was slightly startled and hurriedly gathered around.

Hai Lingfeng, seeing his son return safely, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and with concern asked, "Why did you return so soon? How is the situation?"

Hai Mo recounted the situation and took out those thirty top-grade spirit stones from his storage bag.

Hai Lingfeng waved his hand, and the top-grade spirit stones fell into his hand. He divided some among Jiang Yao, Yan Wuji, and Ling Shuanghua, and several Nascent Soul Stage experts began examining these top-grade spirit stones closely.

Moments later, the group exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, these are newly extracted top-grade spirit stones, and compared to most in the Southern Domain, they are even superior, making them exemplary among top-grade spirit stones." Yan Wuji nodded.

Ling Shuanghua's eyes flickered with a keen light, "Everyone, according to what that boy said, their two thousand people extract tens of thousands of spirit stones daily. Given that boy's conduct, quite a few of those extracted should be these top-grade spirit stones."

This statement caused everyone to be moved.

Hai Mo and Yan Wei suddenly realized this startling possibility.

Indeed, based on Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang's reactions, such a possibility was incredibly high.

Hisses echoed...

A lot of people on site drew sharp breaths.

If this truly were the case, then the top-grade spiritual ore vein on Earth would undoubtedly be a treasure trove. If the Southern Domain cultivation forces could secure such a mineral resource, it could very well propel the three two-star sects into the ranks of the one-star sects in the future.

Yan Wuji and Ling Shuanghua's eyes flickered with determination.

Jiang Yao and Hai Lingfeng felt their hearts sink, secretly worried.

Possessing treasures can lead to downfall!

The exposed wealth of Earth is enormous, making it hard to resist these people's greed.
