“Mister Ye Xiao, follow me, I shall bring you to see the Pearl Pill,” Tong Lan said as she walked up to the second floor.

The two of them attracted lots of attention as they reached the second level. In the Southern City, Tong Lan had the title of the Princess of the Seas. Those allowed to be on the second floor were all family clan members of the Southern City, members of high power and status who all knew the princess.

Tong Lan was 20-years old and single and did not even have an ideal partner in mind yet. There were so many men interested in wooing her that they could form a queue from Tiandu City all the way to the Tiandu Waters.

Seeing a young man beside her was naturally going to make them feel uncomfortable.

All of them cast their glances on Ye Mo. Noticing that there was nothing special about him, they once again turned their eyes away. It seemed that she had merely brought a random servant with her.

Ye Mo was unbothered by the stares as well as he set his sights on a faraway counter.

There were plenty of crystal-clear white pills at the counter. These were evidently the Pearl Pills.

“Mister Ye Xiao, the Pearl Pills are there.”

As she spoke, Tong Lan quickened her footsteps slightly, walking around a group of people and towards the side of the counter.

Ye Mo immediately followed behind.

The eyes of the counter staff sparkled upon seeing Tong Lan’s arrival. She was a big client.

“Lady Tong, here to buy Pearl Pills again? This batch of pills was picked up today, and they are all of decent quality.”

Last time, Tong Lan bought a few thousand of these Pearl Pills at one go, giving the staff a fair share of commissions each from the purchase.

Ling’er’s voice rose from within the Energy Center. “Brother Ye Mo, these Pearl Pills are too average and completely ineffective. Ask them if there are bigger ones.”

“Do you have any Pearl Pills that are bigger in size?” Ye Mo asked as he walked forward.

“Of course, how big are you looking for?” The staff asked.

For Pearl Pills, the greater its area, the older it is, and the ocean mineral essences within it will be greater as well.

“Bring out the biggest Pearl Pill you have here,” Tong Lan said.

“Alright, Lady Tong.” As the staff member spoke, she entered a room behind her and returned with a small wooden box, which she placed on the counter.

Opening the box, she revealed a Pearl Pill the size of an eye.

“Lady Tong, this is a century-old Pearl Pill,” the staff said.

“Mister Ye Xiao, this century-old Pearl Pill is a rare commodity even in the Tiandu City. If you want it, I can buy it for you,” Tong Lan offered.

“Brother Ye Mo, this is it. A century-old Pearl Pill is extremely rare. It will definitely be able to remove the evil aura on my face.”

Hearing Ling’er’s words, Ye Mo stared at that Pearl Pill. Even though Tong Lan said that she would buy it for him, he knew it would not come cheap.

“Lady Tong, this century-old Pearl Pill must be extremely expensive. However, it is very important to me. You can help me buy it first, and I’ll remember this favor with gratitude. I will repay you what I took from you in equal value with my strength,” Ye Mo said with a serious tone.

“Gratitude? Kid, do you have any idea how much this century-old Pearl Pill is worth?”

Tie Ruyu walked towards them in a carefree manner, his arm wrapped around the waist of a beautiful woman. “A poor kid like you wants to repay the value of this Pearl Pill? This century-old Pearl Pill has absorbed a century’s worth of ocean essence. This will cost at least 5,000 Mixed Energy Pills. Can a poor soul like you afford 5,000 Mixed Energy Pills?”

This voice was extremely piercing. Ye Mo frowned as he looked at Tie Ruyu, a moment of killing instinct flashing across his heart.

“Tie Ruyu, what are you doing here?” Tong Lan frowned slightly as she asked coldly.

“No particular reason, Lady Tong. You usually have so many admirers to whom you won’t even spare a glance. Now, you’re gifting this century-old Pearl Pill to this gigolo here. Is that really what you should be doing?” Tie Ruyu said coldly.

His words caused a commotion as many started to gather and form a crowd, looking at Ye Mo mockingly.

Others had expressions of jealousy. Being able to become Tong Lan’s boy toy was definitely something to envy.

Hearing that, Tong Lan’s face changed as she replied coldly, sensing the stares of everyone in the surrounding, “Tie Ruyu, what nonsense are you spouting?”

“Tong Lan, what a spendthrift, giving him a century-old Pearl Pill. Compared to that gigolo, I am not bad-looking at all, and I’m stronger than him as well. How about you consider me?”

The moment Tie Ruyu finished speaking, everyone immediately heard a crisp noise.

Slap!

A shadow of a palm could be seen floating across Tie Ruyu’s face, causing him to fly backwards with even a few of his teeth knocked out as well.

Tie Ruyu did not even see Ye Mo make a move.

A proper Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighter sent flying by a Ninth Realm fighter – this was simply humiliation of unimaginable proportions.

“You spout too much nonsense. I am indeed Tong Lan’s gigolo, what’s the matter?” Ye Mo said coldly.

Watching the situation unfold, the crowd was stunned. At that moment, they were all in twos and threes, talking amongst themselves discreetly.

“What happened just now? How did Tie Ruyu get sent flying?”

“He was slapped by that gigolo. Tie Ruyu’s strength is in the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm, and he was sent flying with just one slap.”

“Don’t tell me, this gigolo is a fighter in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm?”

Looking at Ye Mo, their initial unimpressed attitude had already turned into sheer shock.

Being able to send Tie Ruyu flying with a slap was something that the younger generation among the crowd were admittedly unable to do.

Tong Lan was shocked as well. Not only did she not expect in the slightest for Ye Mo to attack, what was more unexpected was his level of strength.

“Go, go get him!”

Furious, Tie Ruyu, who was lying on the ground, started ordering two of his men behind him.

The two men let out huge roars, unleashing explosive amounts of energy around them. Towering at nine feet, the two of them attacked Ye Mo together with a palm strike.

Tie Ruyu’s bodyguards were in the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm. Attacking together, they were a powerful force to behold. The whole second floor of the Ju Bao Tower fell into silence.

Numerous nervous glances fell onto Ye Mo as they watched what he was going to do to block the attack from the two men.

Bang!

Ye Mo instantly unleashed both fists. In a blink of an eye from the crowd’s perspective, two black palm shadows flashed across them and was followed by the sound of bones breaking. The two of them were sent flying backwards, landing heavily onto the ground as they groaned in pain.

“Young Master of the Tie Family Clan, it seems like you didn’t bring enough of your men,” Ye Mo said calmly. Seeing Tie Ruyu completely frightened and too scared to even move, he shook his head and smiled before turning around and asking Tong Lan, “Will there be any consequences for hitting him?”

“What is done has been done. The Tie Family and us Tong Family do not mix well anyway. Let’s buy the Pearl Pill and leave this place.”

As she spoke, she settled a price with the staff. In the end, the century-old Pearl Pill was sold for 4500 Mixed Energy Pills. Afterwards, the two of them left the Ju Bao Tower.

“You just wait, kid, this is not over,” Tie Ruyu said furiously with a hardened expression after the two had left.
