Chapter 1769 Equivalent Exchange

Ye Bufan then said, “Sister, thank you for the information. Originally, my Master was planning to leave, but now it seems I’ll have to ask him to stay a few more days.”

“Glad it was useful.” Luo Yudie said charmingly, “Thanks can’t just be verbal. Bring out the gifts. Remember, I must be satisfied!”

“No problem.”

As Ye Bufan spoke, with a thought, a small jade bottle appeared in his palm.

“This is a Yuanyang Pill refined by my Master, capable of helping Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators improve their cultivation.”

“Really? This is a good item.”

Luo Yudie excitedly took the small jade bottle into her palm, looking at the Medicinal Pill with Dao patterns, and nodded contentedly.

Her cultivation had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Soul Transformation Stage, and this type of Medicinal Pill was just what she needed.

“And the second gift? What other good items do you have?”

She licked her luscious red lips, like a child anticipating a gift, “No more Medicinal Pills for now. Do you have any other interesting trinkets?”

This man in front of her often took out things she had never seen before, which had piqued her curiosity.

“This is the second gift!”

As Ye Bufan spoke, he flipped his wrist, and a bottle of shampoo appeared in his palm. The reason he chose this as a gift was entirely inspired by Su Caiwei this morning.

Luo Yudie’s long hair was coiled on top of her head, indicating she also suffered from styling troubles. Without the lubrication of shampoo, combing it would indeed be very troublesome.

A thought suddenly arose in his mind: ancient people used to call hair “three thousand strands of vexation.” He wondered if it was related to how difficult it was to manage.

“What is this?”

Luo Yudie’s eyes sparkled, her face full of excitement. This man truly didn’t disappoint her, bringing out another good item she had never seen before.

“This is called shampoo. It’s for washing hair. After using it, your hair will be shiny and smooth. Not only will it look beautiful, but it will also be very easy to comb.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Luo Yudie excitedly opened the lid, sniffed the shampoo’s fragrance, and nodded in satisfaction, “I’ll take this gift.”

“Wait, it’s not over yet.”

A mischievous smile appeared on Ye Bufan’s handsome face, then he opened his hand, and a small mirror appeared.

This was a makeup mirror specifically for girls, and its style, pattern, and color were all extremely beautiful.

The reason he brought this item out was because the mirrors used in this era were all made of polished bronze.

These items could barely reflect a shadow, not even as clear as a reflection in water. They were completely incomparable to modern mirrors, truly products of two different eras.

“Oh my goodness, this mirror is so beautiful!”

Luo Yudie grew even more excited, holding the mirror and looking at her delicate face repeatedly.

“What is this mirror made of? How can it reflect so clearly? Is this also a gift for me?”

Ye Bufan’s mischievous smile deepened: “It is a gift for you, but according to our previous agreement, you can only choose two out of these three.”

“Uh… You’re so mean, making me choose.”

Luo Yudie immediately looked troubled. All three items were things she liked, and she couldn’t bear to give up any of them.

That Yuanyang Pill was very important. As a Cultivator, what she valued most was improving her cultivation.

But at the same time, she was also a woman. Her innate emphasis on her beauty was no less than on her cultivation, so she was equally reluctant to part with the makeup mirror and shampoo, which she had never seen before.

She stared at the three items in front of her for a long time, ultimately unable to make a choice, and said coquettishly, “No, no, I don’t want to choose, I want them all.”

“That won’t do. It’s an equal exchange. We agreed before that you would give me two pieces of information, and I would give you two gifts.”

Ye Bufan smiled cunningly, “If you want to take all three, you can, but then you’ll have to exchange another piece of information with me.

How about this: after the people from the North Sky Sword Sect and the Kyoto Li Family arrive, you help me keep an eye on them and stay updated on their movements.”

“You’re doing this on purpose.”

Luo Yudie puffed out her lips in annoyance, realizing this was a trap set by Ye Bufan, but she still readily agreed, “Deal!”

“Take this. I’ll notify you when I have news.”

After speaking, she handed over a jade talisman.

“What is this? How do I use this thing?”

Ye Bufan asked with some surprise.

Luo Yudie said, “You haven’t even used a sound transmission jade talisman, have you?”

“This, I really haven’t.”

Ye Bufan quickly brought out the excuse he had fabricated, “I’ve Cultivated with my Master in the mountains since I was little. There were no other people, and I never left, so why would I need this thing?”

“Alright then, this young lady will teach you.”

Luo Yudie’s tone carried a hint of triumph. All this time,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Ye Bufan would take out something she had never seen, and something she didn’t know how to use.

This hurt her proud heart, but now she had finally turned the tables.

Soon, Ye Bufan mastered the use of the sound transmission jade talisman. This item was similar to modern WeChat, but its function was too singular, only able to transmit sound.

After finishing the matter, he bid farewell to Luo Yudie and left Jubao Pavilion.

Walking along the street, he pondered the current situation he faced. His enemies now far outnumbered his friends.

Although his relationship with Luo Yudie was good, it was limited to friendship and transactions, more of an exchange of benefits.

As for the Zhai father and son from the City Lord’s Mansion, they could help him, but their capabilities were limited. For example, against the Kyoto Li Family and the North Sky Sword Sect, they didn’t seem to be able to help much.

In this situation, before his cultivation recovered, he had to be careful when dealing with both the Kyoto Li Family and the two powerhouses from the North Sky Sword Sect. One misstep, and he would fall into an abyss of no return.

Just as he was thinking, a sudden commotion came from the street ahead.

Looking up, he saw nearly a hundred people gathered ahead, seemingly watching some excitement.

The road was completely blocked, so he couldn’t avoid watching the commotion and had to squeeze into the crowd.

At the center of the road, a richly dressed young woman was directing her seven or eight servants to surround a young couple.

The young woman was about twenty years old. To be honest, if one didn’t look at her physical gender characteristics, and only at her face, one couldn’t tell it was a woman. There was only one reason: she was truly too ugly.

It was a pure, round, flat face, appearing greasy and covered in bumps and pits. Although heavily powdered, it still couldn’t hide her hideous appearance.

As for her body, she did have feminine features, with a prominent bosom, but at about 1.60 meters tall, she weighed over 200 jin, like an overgrown water barrel, completely lacking any feminine beauty.

The young couple surrounded in the center, the man was quite handsome, looking like a scholar, and the woman, though not an ultimate beauty, had a delicate appearance.

At this moment, the two were tightly embracing each other, looking at the surrounding servants with terrified eyes.

The flat-faced woman raised her hand and pointed at the young woman, spitting as she cursed, “You little hussy, get lost! I’m taking this man today!”
