Cixin was startled when he heard the sound of fifty Sturdy Stone.
Their Assassin Alliance searched the entire Red Leaf Town but couldn't collect even five sets, while the Shi Feng exit had fifty sets.
If fifty sets of Sturdy Stone were made into Whetstone, even with a low success rate for blacksmiths, it would be enough to support all the elite players in Red Leaf Town to reach level 10 and enter White River City.
"Brother Ye Feng, you're not lying to me, are you? You really have fifty sets?" Cixin asked, still half-believing. It wasn't that he didn't believe Shi Feng, but the number was too large. Even a top-tier guild in a small town couldn't come up with that many; they'd be lucky to gather six or seven sets.
"Of course, when have I ever joked?" Shi Feng shook his head and chuckled.
He gave Cixin so many Sturdy Stone not just to earn gold coins, but more so to help Cixin quickly develop in White River City. After all, the main forces of the Assassin Alliance were in White River City and a few nearby cities. Once the Assassin Alliance became stronger in White River City, given his relationship with Cixin, whether for the sake of the guild's development or for the sake of friendship, Cixin would suppress or destroy those second-rate guilds. This would keep those guilds busy resisting the Assassin Alliance and prevent them from paying attention to him.
He had originally intended to sell some to Bai Qingxue, but Bai Qingxue's team was very fast, reaching level 10 in just one day. Now all the elite members were in White River City doing missions, so he didn't need to help them.
Most importantly, Bai Qingxue had the super-deluxe version of the White River City Guide that he sold, which made it easy for her to leave the gap between herself and other guilds and stand out from the crowd.
As the saying goes, it's good to take shelter under a big tree. With Bai Qingxue and Cixin as his protectors, he can develop in peace. What would those third-rate guilds dare to do to him?
"Brother Ye Feng, I don't know how to thank you enough. If there's anything you need in the future, just let me know. As long as it's within my power, I'll do my best." Cixin was deeply moved and regarded Shi Feng as a good brother.
However, obtaining the game currency of 4 gold and 50 silver coins is not easy. It takes a lot of time to gather funds from other towns and also to get some from Gold Farming Group before you can finally collect enough.
Although it cost a lot, the fifty sets of Sturdy Stone were undoubtedly invaluable. They would definitely allow the Red Leaf Town team from the Assassin Alliance to be the first to enter White River City. At that time, his status would be further elevated, and he might even become an elder of the Assassin Alliance. All of this was thanks to Shi Feng's help, but he himself had not done anything for Shi Feng and felt guilty. However, he had decided that once they arrived in White River City, he would fully support Shi Feng. Anyone who dared to oppose Shi Feng was opposing him.
"When will you send someone to Red Leaf Town to trade?" Shi Feng asked.
"Whenever you have time, that's fine," Cixin said.
"By the way, I wanted to ask you something. Do you know where Fengyun Wuhui's elite Martial Arts Alliance team is?" Since he was going to Red Leaf Town anyway, Shi Feng decided to settle accounts with Fengyun Wuhui.
"I know that. They're in the White Sand Ruins. What, you want to take revenge on them? I'll get some people to go with you. There are quite a few of them there; it's too dangerous for one person to go alone." Cixin was slightly surprised. She hadn't expected Shi Feng's revenge to come so quickly, and it was aimed at Fengyun Wuhui's elite group. That elite group was formed by Feng Yun Wu Hui by integrating the elites from five towns. The number of elites was even greater than the elites he led, so it wouldn't be easy to deal with them.
"Thanks, but I still want to handle my own affairs. So, the transaction will take place at the Red Leaf Town Bank warehouse in twenty minutes," Shi Feng said gratefully.
"Alright, I'll have someone find out their exact location right away. I'll tell you their location then, and I'll send you 4 gold and 50 silver immediately." Cixin naturally understood the arrogance of a master, so he didn't ask any more questions. Otherwise, if he went to cause trouble for the Martial Arts Alliance without Shi Feng's permission, he would probably be disliked by Shi Feng instead.
Twenty minutes later.
Shi Feng arrived at the bank warehouse in Red Leaf Town.
"Hello, Brother Ye Feng. I'm Xiao Ke from the Assassin Alliance. Brother Cixin sent me here. This is the leveling spot for the Martial Arts Alliance's elite team."
A pure and lovely female Elementalist walked over, Shi Feng eyes shining as she looked at Shi Feng. Shi Feng was a god-level expert known to everyone in Red Leaf Town. Even the Red Leaf Town leader, Cixin, treated him with respect. Moreover, he was friends with her idol, the Ice Goddess. Ordinary players like her would never have the chance to meet him. Today, because the other blacksmiths were too busy and she was a newly joined blacksmith, she was sent to trade. She never expected to meet such an important figure.
Shi Feng glanced at it with his Eye of Observation, and his eye twitched slightly.
Is Shuang Keke the famous blacksmith from the Star-Moon Kingdom?
Shuang Keke, one of the top ten blacksmithing masters in the Star-Moon Kingdom, is Forging Genius who is close to becoming a blacksmithing grandmaster. She is similar to Seliora from White River City, being both a beauty and a Forging Genius. Many top-tier guilds are willing to offer her a salary of hundreds of millions of Credit Point per year, but she has refused them all. She only wants to stay in the third-rate guild, the Prayer Temple. It is said that this is because she wants to repay the kindness she has received. In her early days, Shuang Keke was clumsy, which resulted in a very low success rate when making items, and she was rejected by many guilds. In the end, she was greatly trained by the Prayer Temple, which is why she is unwilling to leave the Prayer Temple.
Unfortunately, even with such a master blacksmith, the Prayer Temple was ultimately destroyed by the Snake of the Void. In the end, Shuang Keke joined the top-tier guild, Dominating the World, which was opposed to the Snake of the Void, in order to take revenge on the Snake of the Void.
But how come Shuang Keke is in the Assassin Alliance now?
This puzzled Shi Feng, because the main power of the Prayer Temple guild was not in White River City, but in the Royal City Star-Moon City; otherwise, it wouldn't have been destroyed by the Snake of the Void.
"Could it be because he wasn't valued in the Assassin Alliance, so he went to Star-Moon City to develop after reaching a higher level, and was then noticed by the Prayer Temple?" Shi Feng couldn't help but speculate. If the Assassin Alliance knew that they had previously expelled a master blacksmith, they would probably beat their chests and vomit blood to death.
"Brother Ye Feng?" Shuang Keke noticed that Shi Feng was looking at her seriously, which made her nervous.
Shi Feng finally realized that it wasn't that he was making a fuss, but that a top-tier forging master was very important to a guild. However, he couldn't poach Shuang Keke Shuang Keke, since she was still a member of the Assassin Alliance. He could only wait until Shuang Keke left the Assassin Alliance and observe for the time being.
"Oh, it's alright, here are fifty sets of Sturdy Stone." Shi Feng immediately traded fifty sets of Sturdy Stone to Shuang Keke.
When Shuang Keke saw the fifty sets of Sturdy Stone on the trading board, her eyes widened in disbelief. It was extremely difficult to buy even one or two Sturdy Stone these days, yet Shi Feng had produced fifty sets at once. No wonder the team leader Cixin admired Shi Feng so much; he was indeed someone that ordinary players could only look up to.
Afterwards, Shi Feng left Red Leaf Town and headed to White Sand Ruins. He didn't add Shuang Keke as a friend, because doing so might change the course of history and cause Shuang Keke to stay in the Assassin Alliance, which would be a disaster for him. So he decided to let things be as they were.
The exact location of the Martial Arts Alliance is now known; the next step is to let Fengyun Wuhui know the consequences of opposing him.
