"Its leaves are hollow, its color black as ink, its roots insubstantial, moving with the aura of yin spirits... a Void Underworld Leaf?"
At that moment, everyone on both sides fixed their eyes on the strange spiritual herb that had suddenly appeared. Chen Feiyu and the Qingguo and Qingcheng sisters recognized it almost immediately. Though the others did not know what herb it was, they could tell from its aura alone that it was extraordinarily precious.
"The Void Underworld Leaf has few uses, but as an extremely rare herb, it has nearly vanished everywhere else. We can't let this one slip away!" Ye Qingguo secretly transmitted to Ye Lingfeng.
Watching the dim black light slowly flowing over the Void Underworld Leaf, Ye Lingfeng did not reply, though he had already begun weighing the gains and losses of making a move.
The best outcome would naturally be to kill Chen Feiyu and Lian Yifan, then take the Void Underworld Leaf. But the risk was too great—they did not know whether the other Seven Sons of Luo River would suddenly appear.
If they took a step back, forcing Chen Feiyu and the other man away and claiming the Void Underworld Leaf should not be difficult. That was the benefit they could secure with certainty, and it was the option Ye Lingfeng favored more.
