Chapter 1888: Are Spirit Stones Free?

"Give you a few more?" Chen Yu's voice suddenly rose. "Do you think these are trash in the fields, something you can grab by the handful? The material of this Jade Talisman is Spirit Stone, and a Jade Talisman of this grade requires three high-grade Spirit Stones to be crafted. Do Spirit Stones not cost money?"

"I... I can give you money," Qiongsi said with an awkward smile.

"Is this something that can be bought with money?" Chen Yu was angry. If he didn't have a Spirit Mine, he would never have easily handed this thing out. High-grade Spirit Stones, and having to fuse three at a time to craft one high-level Jade Talisman—is this something that can be measured by money?

"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I was a bit anxious. I have accepted the item, thank you for saving my life, Mr. Chen." This guy was startled. Seeing that Chen Yu was a bit angry, he hurriedly and carefully put away the Jade Talisman in his hand.

This thing was a life-saving item, so he had to keep it safe.

"The Roy Family," Chen Yu mused. "This family is the instigator of several wars. It seems your father is impressive, being able to marry a wife with such an impressive maternal family after having you."

"My father's marriage was also a political alliance," Qiongsi said helplessly. "After my mother passed away, he remarried, and the Roy Family also had their eyes on our family's foundation."

"The connections between the various families in your West are quite complex," Chen Yu said. "I'm not too interested in that; I just want to know what the Roy Family's core business is now."

"They all make money from war. During the two wars, their family made a fortune and directly became a top-tier family," Qiongsi said. "It's just that there hasn't been much fighting in recent years, so their main business is transporting weapons to war-torn areas."

"It's just that there are fewer places fighting now, so their business has shrunk, but I know they have dealings with some extremists. The small-yield nuclear bombs they developed are their signature product."

"Quite fierce," Chen Yu nodded thoughtfully.

"Yes, that is the real reason why I fear my younger brother," Qiongsi said. "I don't dare to have a direct confrontation with him because I'm afraid this guy will suddenly lose his temper and find someone to take me out."

"You don't need to fear him so much. Don't forget, you are one of my people," Chen Yu smiled slightly. "Sometimes, the more you fear him, the more pleased he becomes. You must overwhelm the other party with your aura."

"Will that work?" Qiongsi was slightly stunned. He suddenly remembered that he couldn't hold his head up in front of his younger brother; wouldn't that mean his aura was being suppressed by the other party?

"It will work. Just do as I say," Chen Yu smiled slightly. "Regardless of strength, you cannot lose in terms of aura."

"Alright, I'll try my best," Qiongsi gritted his teeth. He felt that what Chen Yu said made sense.

"Alright, let's stop here for today," Chen Yu said indifferently. "If you have anything in the future, just contact me directly."

"Where is Mr. Chen going?" Hearing that Chen Yu was leaving, Qiongsi became anxious. "The Shilaike Family's Ancient Castle is not too far from here. Why doesn't Mr. Chen come back with me, and I will arrange a place for Mr. Chen to stay?"

"That works too," Chen Yu thought for a moment. Qiongsi was a hidden family here in Yizhou. He wasn't sure if the Shilaike Family had any connection with the Pope, but he figured they must have connections in that regard.

"Alright, Mr. Chen, please follow me." Qiongsi breathed a sigh of relief, and he walked out of the bar with Chen Yu.

This bar was actually booked by him. Qiongsi was originally a person who loved to have fun, but he had been stifled lately because his younger brother was trying every possible way to kill him, so he didn't dare to go to lively places to play.

He could only book a bar for himself, but a bar is all about the atmosphere. Being so cold and quiet with only him there, he felt it was dull and uninteresting.

After exiting the bar door, more than twenty bodyguards came up to meet them. Some of these bodyguards came from world-class security companies, and some were retired personnel specially hired from the Delta Force.

These people were very strong, but in the past month or so, the team that was originally over fifty people had dwindled to the current thirty. The brutality involved can be imagined.

"Mr. Chen, I've let you see a joke. I've been suppressed to the point of having no temper lately," Qiongsi smiled sheepishly. "Saving my life is the priority."

"Alright, let's go," Chen Yu nodded slightly and walked forward with the group of bodyguards.

It was already midnight. A full moon hung in the sky. Chen Yu looked around and saw shadows appearing from time to time on the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Under the illumination of the Moonlight, the forms of these shadows had already changed.

"Let's go quickly. The ones who came tonight are not ordinary mercenaries," Chen Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood the background of the other party. He patted Qiongsi, signaling him to hurry.

"Alright, hurry, drive, drive immediately." Qiongsi was taken aback. Chen Yu patted his shoulder with a hint of warning, and he instantly understood that the people today were not here with good intentions. He hurriedly urged the driver to drive quickly.

The specially made bulletproof car started instantly, with four cars in front and four behind protecting Qiongsi in the middle.

Qiongsi's car was an extended model with a huge cabin. He took out two bottles of iced red wine from inside and poured a glass for Chen Yu.

"Mr. Chen, what is the background of the people who came tonight?" Qiongsi asked.

"You still have the heart to drink, that means you are fearless," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"It's not that I'm fearless, but with Mr. Chen here, I feel relatively at ease," Qiongsi said awkwardly. "The ones who came this time aren't mercenaries, could it be?"

"Under the moonlight, their power is stronger. I just scanned the surroundings with my divine sense and found many strong men nearby. They should be transforming," Chen Yu took the glass of wine and took a sip.

"Werewolf... Legion?" Qiongsi's hand shook, and he almost spilled the wine in his hand. He looked at Chen Yu in shock, feeling that the whole situation was bad.

"That's right, it's the Werewolves. Although the origin of this group of Werewolves is unknown, I can be sure that they are targeting you," Chen Yu nodded slightly. "You must be prepared."

"Fuli... he really went all out, even hiring the Werewolf Legion from the Dark World. He is truly impatient to put me to death," Qiongsi shivered and took a sip of wine.

He knew some things about the Dark World; whether it was the Blood Clan or the Werewolves, they were extremely difficult to deal with.

The mercenary team he had assembled would likely fall apart completely this time.

Although every person who died would have a high pension, Qiongsi's heart was bleeding now. It wasn't that he felt bad about the pension, but rather he felt terrified by his younger brother's methods.
