The War Bear team was down to only three members.

This information was crucial for Ning Fan.

When Lin Chuan had led them to escape earlier, there hadn't been time to confirm how many of the enemy remained.

"Hey, kid, what's the verdict? Are you selling or not?" Sister Cai asked again.

"I'll sell," Ning Fan nodded.

Sister Cai smiled, "Smart boy."

Ning Fan immediately added, "But I have one more condition."

"Selling a few weapons, why is it so complicated?" Sister Cai was getting a bit impatient.

Ning Fan, unfazed by her attitude, continued, "That Old Pig from the Skull Gang you mentioned? I ran into him when I first entered the district. We had a bit of an... unpleasant encounter."

Sister Cai paused, then frowned.

"What are you getting at? You want me to help you deal with Old Pig for these few trinkets? That's not happening."

"No, that's not it," Ning Fan spread his hands. "I have a conflict with him, and now his people are tailing me, obviously looking to rob me. So, whether it's these goods or the Solas, they're not safe with me."

"So?"

"So, I'll give you the goods first. When I'm ready to leave the district, you come to see me off, and give me the Solas then."

"Give them to you when you leave the district? Kid, let me kindly remind you, if they want to rob you, it's even more convenient outside the district."

"Once we're out of the district, I'm not afraid of being robbed," Ning Fan smiled. "Outside, it might be convenient for them, but it's even more convenient for me."

Sister Cai narrowed her eyes, looking at Ning Fan with increased interest.

This kid was very confident in his Soul Servant!

He was confident that if the Skull Gang dared to make a move on him after leaving the district...

He might soon come back to sell another batch of weapons!

"Little brother, are you that confident? The Skull Gang is no pushover!"

Sister Cai took two steps closer to Ning Fan, then whispered near his ear, "That Old Pig is in the double digits."

[Ten-soul level]!

What Ning Fan cared about wasn't this, but the warm breath from Sister Cai near his ear, carrying a faint fragrance.

"Little brother, your face is red," Sister Cai suddenly laughed heartily.

Ning Fan looked embarrassed.

Sister Cai had already taken his package and held it in her hand.

Then, she cleared her throat.

"I've taken this kid's goods, and I'll give them back to him when he leaves the district! Everyone, help me remember. Women have poor memory, I'm afraid I might forget."

Ning Fan looked at Sister Cai with surprise.

This woman's actions were very righteous.

First, she was giving Ning Fan reassurance. By saying this in front of so many people, she certainly couldn't renege on this money.

Second, she was also speaking to the monkey following behind Ning Fan.

More precisely, she was telling Old Pig.

This kid has no money on him.

At least within the district, there's no point in robbing him.

"Thanks," Ning Fan said sincerely.

"Thanks for what? It's just normal business," Sister Cai didn't say much more, but picked up Ning Fan's package and walked out of the black market, swaying her hips. She waved her hand, "Contact me when you want to leave the district, I'll see you off."

As Sister Cai's figure disappeared at the end of the black market, a hand suddenly waved in front of Ning Fan's eyes.

It was the buzz-cut man.

"Kid, your eyes were fixed straight ahead."

Ning Fan came back to his senses and saw the buzz-cut man grinning, "Got a crush on Sister Cai, huh?"

"No," Ning Fan immediately denied.

The buzz-cut man pursed his lips, "Come on, man, it's normal for guys to fancy women! What's there to be ashamed of?"

"Whatever you say," Ning Fan couldn't be bothered to explain and walked away in another direction.

He had indeed been staring at Sister Cai's back just now.

This might have something to do with Sister Cai's outstanding beauty, but more importantly, it was because of her abilities!

Doing this kind of business, she must know how to increase the number of souls in a Soul Servant.

Serene Blade was only a [Single-soul level] with just one soul.

If he could form a long-term cooperation with Sister Cai, maybe not only his, but even Hui Zi and Qiao Fei's Soul Servants could be upgraded.

After leaving the black market, Ning Fan wandered aimlessly on the streets.

Half an hour later, he was sure the monkey was no longer following him.

He believed the monkey must have heard Sister Cai's words, realized Ning Fan had nothing valuable on him, and ran back to report to Old Pig.

As night fell, Ning Fan found a small inn near the black market to stay in.

He had two thousand Solas on him, enough for normal living expenses for a while.

Lying on the bed in the inn, Ning Fan considered how to flush out those three people who had infiltrated the Skull Gang.

If he could avoid Old Pig, that would be best.

But if Old Pig insisted on stirring up trouble...

Then he'd have no choice but to wipe out the entire Skull Gang.

Revenge was a must.

Gradually, Ning Fan felt his eyelids grow heavy, and he drifted off to sleep.

This was the most peaceful sleep he'd had in a long time.

Previously, to complete Lin Chuan's test, Ning Fan had been doing sorting work for several nights in a row, with no time to sleep.

Out in the wild, although there were chances for short naps, he always had to remain vigilant.

Lying in bed and resting peacefully seemed like a distant memory.

However, just as Ning Fan was sleeping soundly, a scream shattered the silence.

Ning Fan sat up abruptly.

He first looked around, confirming he was still in the inn.

There was no danger in the immediate surroundings.

The sound had come from outside the window.

Ning Fan leaned against the wall, turning his head to observe the situation outside.

On the street, torches had been lit.

Soon, another scream rang out!

Ning Fan's gaze sharpened.

Wasn't this inside the district?

What was happening?

"Catch him!"

Suddenly, Ning Fan noticed four men in uniform running wildly through the alley.

The one in the lead was wielding a giant axe.

Ning Fan recognized their clothes.

Monitors!

Why were these people appearing here?

Could it be that someone had used a Soul Servant within the district?

In the district, even publicly mentioning Soul Servants was a serious crime, let alone using one!

If caught...

Death penalty!

Ning Fan was curious, who would be so bold?

What deep grudge was worth risking using a Soul Servant to kill someone in the district?

Ning Fan ran downstairs.

The inn owner was also at the door watching the commotion.

"Brother, what's going on?" Ning Fan asked as he approached.

"Someone's been killed," the inn owner said with a grimace. "Didn't see clearly what they looked like, just saw a head full of yellow hair."

Ning Fan was startled.

A head of yellow hair?

He immediately thought of the man who bought the rotten frog's courage crystal in the black market today.

In an instant, Ning Fan seemed to realize something.

"Brother, how many people did he kill?"

"That I don't know," the inn owner frowned. "But all the dead were doing business in the black market! I guess it's probably because of some unpleasant business deal, someone took revenge!"

A shop owner from a nearby business chimed in, "It's brutal! Old Zhou's entire family of four was slaughtered! What kind of deep grudge is this?"

Ning Fan understood everything now.

But he couldn't comprehend it.

He remembered that the blonde young man had said before leaving that he had memorized those who insulted him.

One of the stall owners was surnamed Zhou!

But who could have imagined that because of such a small conflict...

He would kill someone's entire family?!

At this moment, the nearby shop owner muttered again, "But that kid does have some skill. The arrows he shot were like beams of light. Even three Monitors have fallen!"

Archery.

A beam of light.

Ning Fan's face turned pale.

Light Arrow!
