In the afternoon, Chen Fan arrived in front of the Yongchang City Supervision Department building.

Seeing Chen Fan arrive, Director Wang personally welcomed him into his office.

"Little Brother Chen, I don't have any good tea here, please forgive me." Director Wang poured a cup of tea for Chen Fan and then asked with a smile: "Little Brother Chen, didn't you say you wanted to stroll around the city? Why have you come to me?"

Chen Fan revealed a bitter smile; after resolving the Zhang Rubing group, he had bid farewell to everyone.

He had originally wanted to inquire about news of the Spirit Energy Dark Alley within the city, but ended up wasting three or four hours for nothing.

So he had no choice but to come here and seek the help of Director Wang, this local snake.

Chen Fan sipped the tea in front of him and spoke: "Director Wang, I came to find you because I want to inquire about a place."

"Oh? What place? Little Brother Chen, just ask, I will certainly tell you everything I know." Director Wang detected the caution in Chen Fan's words.

"Spirit Energy Dark Alley." Chen Fan said softly.

"Spirit Energy Dark Alley?" A hint of surprise flashed in Director Wang's eyes.

"The Spirit Energy Dark Alley is one of the four major underground trading firms in Great Xia, and there is indeed a branch hidden within our Yongchang City. Besides handling storage business, it also sells various weapons and pills, and you can even buy some contraband items there, though it is thirty percent more expensive than normal trading firms."

After Director Wang finished speaking, he asked Chen Fan: "I wonder what Little Brother Chen is inquiring about this for?"

"I accidentally obtained a card and intend to go take a look." Chen Fan did not hide it, because he still wanted to obtain more intelligence from Director Wang.

"Little Brother Chen is quite lucky, but that kind of place is a mix of fish and dragons, so you must be careful." Director Wang kindly reminded him.

Ten minutes later, Chen Fan left the Supervision Department, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for his destination.

The Spirit Energy Dark Alley was located on the outskirts of Yongchang City; the mountains were clear and the waters beautiful, and a luxurious building was hidden within.

After Chen Fan showed the gold-rimmed black card, he successfully entered the main hall.

An exquisitely-looking attendant quickly walked up with a smiling face.

"Sir, what business do you need to handle?"

Chen Fan imperceptibly scanned his surroundings and said coldly: "Help me check the balance on the card."

"Very well, sir, please follow me." The attendant took it with both hands and led Chen Fan to the counter.

"Sir, there is currently a balance of 620 million on your card." After checking, the attendant politely handed the card back to Chen Fan.

"So much!" Chen Fan was secretly shocked; although he had guessed the amount on the card was not small, he hadn't expected it to be as much as 600 million.

Although he was secretly happy, his face remained as calm as water.

"Sir, do you need to make a purchase or withdraw money?" The attendant seemed to have guessed that this card did not belong to Chen Fan; she wore a smile and took the initiative to explain: "If you want to withdraw, you can give me an account, and I will process the transfer for you right now."

Chen Fan pondered slightly: "Take me to your merchandise area to have a look first."

"Very well, sir."

Soon, Chen Fan followed the woman to the second floor.

The products here were dazzling; pills, spirit materials, weapons, and even combat techniques were all available.

Chen Fan headed straight for the weapon area; he was now in urgent need of a new long spear!

Chen Fan stopped in the long spear area, his gaze quickly locking onto a black long spear.

The attendant on the side had excellent discernment and hurriedly recommended: "Sir, this spear is named God-Slaying, implying that if a god blocks, kill the god; I alone am supreme. Its shaft is crafted using the heartwood of a Thunder Abyss Wood, and the tip is taken from the most core part of outer-world meteor iron. The grade of this spear reaches A-grade, enough for you to use until the sixth rank."

Chen Fan held it in his hand; when he poured his thunder into the long spear, sounds of wind and thunder actually emerged from within.

Chen Fan couldn't help but be surprised.

"Sir, you are actually a thunder-type ability user; this God-Slaying is a perfect match for you. Thunder Abyss Wood loves thunder the most; as thunder flows through the spear body, not only will there be no obstruction, but the release speed will actually increase by thirty percent. Moreover, the more thunder you inject, the heavier the long spear will become, and the lethality will naturally be greater."

"May I try it out?" Chen Fan was very tempted and couldn't help but ask.

"Certainly, sir, but you must come with me to the third floor; it's too cramped to perform here."

"Fine." Chen Fan was already impatient.

After arriving on the third floor, Chen Fan danced it urgently; the weight of this long spear was about three hundred kilograms, yet it felt like nothing in his hands.

One could see his figure like lightning, spear flowers flying, just like a flood dragon stirring the sea, and also like a spirit snake dancing wildly.

The attendant on the side had never seen master-level spear technique and was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, Chen Fan began to inject thunder; thunder flowed on the black spear shaft like a swimming dragon of lightning.

As Chen Fan swung the long spear, it seemed to come alive.

"Good spear!" After trying it, Chen Fan couldn't stop praising it.

"How much is this spear?" Chen Fan asked.

"Sir, the materials for this spear are exceptionally precious, and it comes from the hands of a master; its selling price is 588 million." The attendant on the side said with a smile.

"Hiss~, so expensive?" Chen Fan secretly gasped.

But thinking about it, this was a B-grade weapon, enough to satisfy a sixth-rank ability user, so it was reasonable for it to be a bit expensive.

"I thought I had become rich overnight, but I didn't expect to spend it all on one long spear." Chen Fan felt a bit of heartache, but he still decided to buy this long spear.

After all, he was in urgent need of a handy weapon, and this God-Slaying was indeed a very good fit for him.

"Alright, swipe the card." Chen Fan handed over the gold-rimmed black card in his hand with a normal expression.

"Very well, sir, please follow me." The beautiful attendant smiled knowingly and led Chen Fan toward a hall.

A few minutes later, he completed the transaction, and the other party handed the long spear into his hands.

"Sir, do you need any other items?" The beautiful attendant asked again.

"No need, thank you." He wasn't lacking anything else, so Chen Fan decisively shook his head.

"Very well, sir, looking forward to your next visit."

After Chen Fan left, a middle-aged man called the female attendant who had just served Chen Fan to his side.

Seeing the man, the beautiful attendant hurriedly bowed respectfully: "Supervisor Wang, are you looking for me?"

"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Xiaoli, that youth just now looked a bit unfamiliar; is it his first time at the trading firm?"

"Yes, Supervisor."

"Oh? Then whose card was he carrying?" The middle-aged man asked curiously.

"Our backend shows this card belongs to Li Kuangying." The woman dared not hide anything and replied respectfully.

"Li Kuangying? Li Kuangying of the Shenying Mercenary Group?" The man couldn't help but frown.

"Yes, Supervisor."

"This is strange; Li Kuangying is cautious and careful in his work and would never hand his card to others. Could Li Kuangying have been killed by this kid? That should be impossible; this kid is only second-tier, how could he kill Li Kuangying."

Once the middle-aged man thought of this, he ordered the attendant in front of him: "Call Tie Qiong here; I have something to entrust to him."
