Chapter 17: Tier 3 Sun Stone

Because Ye Bai still had class in the afternoon, he told Dahui to watch the house.

Dahui waved its hand at the doorway, holding that lightning cat in its arms.

Dahui, whose fur had originally been white, had turned gray again.

At this moment, Ye Bai could feel the surging life force within Dahui.

However, it quickly restrained it; Ye Bai gave Dahui a meaningful look before taking Thousand-Change Silkworm and heading to school.

Although he didn't know what level Dahui was at now, Ye Bai knew that Dahui's strength was certainly not weak; ordinary cats and dogs were no match for Dahui.

If anyone came to provoke them, Dahui could crush them with a single move.

When he arrived at the school gate, Ye Bai was stopped by someone.

He Qingyuan followed behind a middle-aged man, looking unwilling as he stepped out of the car.

This middle-aged man looked seventy percent like He Qingyuan and seemed to be He Qingyuan's father.

He patted He Qingyuan's back: "Go on, don't dawdle. What did I tell you before we came?"

"You need to say it word for word, completely!"

The middle-aged man then looked at Ye Bai with a serious expression: "I am He Qingyuan's father, He Guangda."

"I have brought He Qingyuan here this time to apologize to you."

"Without our consent, he used his connections to act against you without authorization; I have already severely reprimanded He Qingyuan."

Oh, so he was shifting the blame entirely onto He Qingyuan; Ye Bai knew with his eyes closed that a little brat like He Qingyuan couldn't possibly know anyone from the Street Management Office.

It must have been the He Family acting in the shadows, only the matter had been exposed by He Qingyuan in public, causing the He Family's reputation to suffer a heavy blow.

So they had no choice but to push all the responsibility onto He Qingyuan.

"He Qingyuan, apologize quickly!"

He Guangda patted He Qingyuan's shoulder again; He Qingyuan's face flushed red as he let out a voice like a mosquito: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have threatened you."

He Qingyuan felt that his self-esteem had suffered a serious blow.

"I didn't hear you!"

Ye Bai said playfully.

He Qingyuan clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging; it was clear he felt utterly humiliated.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

He Qingyuan shouted stubbornly, then turned and Depart.

"Sigh, this child."

"Right, since He Qingyuan has already apologized, let's talk about the matter of the Longteng Auction House Invitation Letter."

He Guangda pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

This was the main reason he had come to find Ye Bai today.

"This Invitation Letter was stolen by He Qingyuan from me to show off to his classmates."

"It is not his property, so it was inappropriate for him to use it as a wager."

"Of course, since he lost, we naturally cannot go back on our word; our He Family values our reputation."

Ye Bai rolled his eyes; the He Family had done plenty of shameless things, yet he said this.

He Guangda ignored Ye Bai's eye-roll and continued.

"We would like to offer 100,000 Alliance Coin to purchase the Invitation Letter you have, how about it?"

"100,000 Alliance Coin is enough for you to finish your third year of high school."

He Guangda pulled a freshly written check from his pocket.

The numbers on the check had just been written down.

It could be cashed at any bank window.

"Not interested!" If he hadn't won 1,000,000 Alliance Coin, Ye Bai might have accepted.

Longteng Auction House was a place where all sorts of people gathered, and he didn't want to expose that he possessed the Insight Eye.

Right now, He Guangda's bargaining chip couldn't move Ye Bai.

Ye Bai's smile faded as he stated his own conditions.

"If you have a Tier 3 Sun Stone, I might consider it."

"Otherwise, I can just go visit the Tenglong Paimaisuo instead."

Ye Bai said with a smile.

What a difficult little fox.

He Guangda cursed inwardly.

However, since the initiative was in Ye Bai's hands, He Guangda had no choice but to grit his teeth and accept it.

Otherwise, their He Family would become a joke in Jiaying City.

It just so happened he had a Tier 3 Sun Stone on him, given to He Guangda as a tribute by his subordinates.

The He Family had more earth-attribute Pet Beast, and although Tier 3 Sun Stone were not common, the Invitation Letter was more important to him.

So he took a box out of his Pet Beast Space and handed it to Ye Bai.

It was an exquisitely crafted box; Ye Bai took it and opened it.

The Tier 3 Sun Stone emitted a blinding golden light.

After confirming it was a Tier 3 Sun Stone, he stored it into his Pet Beast Space.

"This is the Longteng Auction House Invitation Letter; our business is finished, we are even."

Ye Bai waved his hand and walked toward the school gate.

He Guangda straightened his collar, looking like an elite professional; he pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, a smile that didn't reach his eyes hidden behind the lenses.

That little fox, my things are not so easy to take.

He turned and walked toward his own vehicle.

As soon as the car door opened, He Qingyuan looked at He Guangda with a stubborn expression.

"Qingyuan, you did three things wrong this time. First, you shouldn't have been unable to handle the provocation and taken out the Invitation Letter as a wager."

"Second, you shouldn't have abandoned that Boxing Rabbit in public, especially a Boxing Rabbit that knows the Berserk skill."

"Third, you shouldn't have revealed our plan; this has dealt a huge blow to the reputation of our He Family."

"This time, you should have learned your lesson, right?"

"It's a good thing I used a treasure to trade the Invitation Letter back, otherwise both of us would be sinners to the family."

He Qingyuan's face turned beet red: "Ye Bai slapped our He Family in the face like this; shouldn't we take some action to retaliate?"

He Guangda smiled leisurely: "I had people look into it; the lease on the building Ye Bai rented for his Breeding House is about to expire."

"We will buy the building directly, kick Ye Bai out, and at the same time, we will put the word out so no one else rents a shop to Ye Bai."

"What do you think of this plan!"

"It will definitely keep Ye Bai busy and flustered; this is just a small punishment for offending our He Family."

"Usually, you should learn more from me; play open schemes, don't use those disgusting little tricks. If you're going to do it, crush the person to death with one blow."

"In Jiaying City, the person who can bully our He Family hasn't been born yet."

He Qingyuan said with extreme arrogance.

After Ye Bai entered the school, he went straight to the library.

He seemed to have seen an introduction to the Insight Eye talent in some book before.

But he had only read one page when the book was taken away by the librarian; a big shot needed to look through that book.

Now he just didn't know if that book was still in its original place.

He recalled the location of that book and walked over following the shelf numbers.

Sure enough, a yellowed ancient book was sitting in the corner.

Ye Bai pulled out the ancient book and flipped through the pages quickly.

His Photographic Memory talent firmly imprinted the contents of the ancient book into his mind.

Under the effect of the talent, the words in the book seemed to come alive, impatiently leaping into his brain.

He immediately revealed a thoughtful expression.
