Huang Fu Flawless's retort really made sense, and after pondering for a long time, Le Ye could only sigh in resignation.
Although he still harbored some doubts about whether the Tiantong Commercial Alliance was acting as a shill for Feng Jun, he dared not take her warning lightly—disciples from the Four Great Sects are quite arrogant, but after having said this much, anyone who still recklessly causes trouble is simply brainless.
After musing for a while, he spoke up and asked, "Chairman Huang Fu, I have an audacious request; I'm not sure if I should speak of it?"
"If you know it's an audacious request, then don't mention it," Huang Fu Flawless replied crisply, "Why bother waiting for me to refuse?"
"You speak as if," Le Ye said with a charming smile, "Alright, I wanted to ask to borrow twenty thousand Spirit Stones, to purchase the Nether Bead first."
Whether it was to seize by force or not, his primary goal was to obtain the Nether Bead; the cost was only secondary.
