Seeing that Ye Wushuang still remained silent, Mo Xuan continued, “Thirty thousand taels of gold— that’s the absolute maximum. I truly cannot afford more than that.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang offered a faint smile and replied, “Deal!”
At that moment, Mo Xuan’s face lit up with delight. “That’s wonderful,” he said.
Mo Xuan turned to the others and commanded, “Take Xiao Yuan away!”
“Wait!”
However, just at that moment, Ye Wushuang spoke up.
“Hall Master Mo, I’ll take this man,” Ye Wushuang said with a smile. “Earlier, Miss Mo Xiao mentioned that you captured him to sell in the Imperial Capital for profit. How much is he worth? I’ll take him.”
Mo Xiao quickly interjected, “Young Master Ye, even in a calm state, Xiao Yuan is at the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. His physical strength is formidable. When he goes berserk, even Uncle Xuan can’t restrain him. You saw it just now…”
“I know,” Ye Wushuang replied with a smile. “Hall Master Mo, name your price!”
Mo Xuan looked at Ye Wushuang meaningfully at this moment.
This Ye Wushuang was definitely not the so-called “three years of cultivation with no achievements” that others saw!
“Actually, this man is being hunted by an Imperial Capital family with a bounty of fifteen thousand taels of gold,” Mo Xuan paused for a moment and then continued, “But if Young Master Ye wants him, I’ll give him to you as a gift!”
When Mo Xuan said this, even Mo Xiao was taken aback.
Give him away for free?
When did Uncle Xuan become so generous?
Ye Wushuang also glanced at Mo Xuan. He was truly the master of the Soul-Devouring Hall, knowing when to give and when to take.
Ye Wushuang naturally understood that Mo Xuan had seen his performance in the Life-and-Death Arena and his mastery of arrays, and wanted to use this opportunity to befriend him.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t refuse such a generous offer,” Ye Wushuang said. “However, I’ve never been one to take advantage of others. Since I’ve agreed to help you rebuild your array, I’ll construct three first-class spiritual arrays for you, supported by twenty-four ordinary arrays!”
“With this setup, if anyone below the fifth level of the Condensation Realm causes trouble in your Soul-Devouring Hall in the future, you can simply activate the array’s core and eliminate them all!”
Upon hearing this, both Mo Xuan and Mo Xiao were utterly astonished.
Ye Wushuang smiled but said nothing more. He then returned to the secret chamber. At that moment, he stood in front of the array’s core, not destroying the previous Yuanwu Five-Element Array and the sixteen ordinary arrays, but instead continuously gathering spiritual runes around himself.
Four hundred and twenty-one spiritual runes!
Gathering spiritual runes is extremely taxing on one’s mental energy.
He was currently at the fifth level of the Body Refining Realm. After the ninth modification by his primal spirit, his physical strength and vital energy were far superior to those of other practitioners at the same level, which allowed him to gather over four hundred runes. Otherwise, an ordinary fifth-level array master would probably struggle to gather even a hundred.
“Over four hundred spiritual runes!”
Mo Xuan, standing behind him, was horrified.
“Uncle Xuan, what’s wrong?” Mo Xiao asked.
Mo Xuan whispered to Mo Xiao, “Although I’m not an array master, I’ve studied this. Ordinary array masters can only construct arrays with up to a hundred spiritual runes, while first-class spiritual array masters can gather between a hundred and a thousand. A hundred runes is a significant threshold!”
“Ye Wushuang can gather over four hundred boundary runes, which means he can easily set up a first-class spiritual array capable of eliminating practitioners at the second or third levels of the Condensation Realm!”
Mo Xiao was also extremely shocked at this moment.
Was this Ye Wushuang still the same Ye Wushuang from the fallen Ye family?
At the fifth level of Body Refining, he effortlessly defeated Yun Chang at the sixth level, and now he turned out to be a spiritual array master!
Inside the room, Ye Wushuang continued to imprint over four hundred spiritual runes into the Yuanwu Five-Element Array. After about an hour, his face turned slightly pale, and his internal spiritual energy was depleted. He took a deep breath and said, “Done!”
At that moment, Ye Wushuang turned to Mo Xuan and Mo Xiao and said, “Today, I’ve reinforced your Soul-Devouring Hall’s existing Yuanwu Five-Element Array. I’ve removed eight of the sixteen ordinary arrays and stabilized the remaining eight. This linked array can now suppress practitioners at the first level of the Condensation Realm.”
Ye Wushuang smiled, clenched his palm, and gathered the spiritual runes.
“Suppress!”
As he spoke, suddenly, beneath Mo Xuan’s feet, spiritual runes gathered and formed two illusory palms that grabbed his feet. In an instant, two more illusory boulders condensed on his shoulders, pressing down on Mo Xuan, rendering him completely immobile and unable to resist.
“Th-this…” Mo Xuan’s face was filled with astonishment.
