Chapter 1984: Addicted to Extortion

mouth, the Lu family guards, who had been eyeing him hungrily, rushed forward. Dozens of them surged towards Ye Bufan. Everyone present was stunned, none expecting things to take such a turn.Ye Bufan...Following his gaze, they saw a bamboo stalk that was emerald green throughout. It stood about three meters tall and was as thick as a baby's arm.

The most peculiar thing was that this bamboo had no branches, only nine leaves, and each leaf was a different color.

There is a sign next to it that reads "Nine-Leaf Emerald Bamboo."

All present were cultivators. Many knew about the Nine-Leaved Jade Bamboo; it was definitely a rare and valuable find. Each of its nine leaves was medicinal, and the bamboo itself was an excellent material for refining tools.

Of course, such a good thing wouldn't be cheap either. It clearly states 50 million gold coins on it.

Someone saw the price tag and their heart skipped a beat. If this were multiplied by one hundred, it would be a staggering fifty billion gold coins.

For some unknown reason, this item caught Ye Bufan's eye, and people immediately started calculating its price for him.

People then shook their heads again, this Nine-Leaf Emerald Bamboo was definitely naturally grown. Unlike the Barrier-Breaking Dan which had been artificially refined earlier, it should not pose any problems.

Zhang Laifu was taken aback when he saw Ye Bufan still buying things, but when he saw the bamboo tree, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought to himself, even if you're incredibly capable, this natural thing shouldn't cause any trouble, right

Ye Bufan didn't care what others thought. Just like before, he called over the female attendant to pay, then took the bamboo into his hands.

At this moment, all eyes were on him, eager to see what the young man would do.

Ye Bufan looked around, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth, his gaze finally settling on Zhang Laifu.

""

When he said that, many people in the room almost choked on their own saliva. This guy doesn't say a word and just opens his mouth to ask for money. What kind of person is this

In all these years that Jùbǎo Gē has existed, only this young man before them dares to be so arrogant here.

Zhang Laifu was even more furious, his face turning ashen. He cursed inwardly, "You've already taken over forty billion gold coins from me, what else do you want"

"Hey, what are you talking about Why should I pay you"

"It seems I have to explain things."

Ye Bufan chuckled, then shook the Nine-Leaf Emerald Bamboo in his hand, "This thing is poisonous!"

"Here he comes again, saying other people's things are poisonous. This is nine-leaf emerald bamboo, how could it be poisonous"

"Yeah, I see this bamboo is fine, there's no sign of poison at all"

"Young people seem to be addicted to blackmail, their minds clouded. Once they can't produce evidence this time, the Treasure Pavilion certainly won't let it go..."

Zhang Laifu suppressed the urge to explode, enduring the anger in his heart as he said: "This is pure natural nine-leaf emerald bamboo, how could it be poisonous" "Wouldn't you know if you tried it"

Ye Bufan finished speaking, flicking his finger. A pale blue flame appeared at his fingertips and then burned towards a bamboo leaf.

The flames of the fire were intense, and the leaf quickly caught alight, releasing pale blue smoke. At the same time, a sickeningly foul odor permeated the entire Jubao Pavilion.

Now the expressions of everyone changed. Since all present were cultivators, they knew this was definitely a sign of poisoning.

Generally speaking, the leaves of nine-leaf green bamboo burn with a light wisp of smoke but release a fragrant aroma when ignited. Inhaling it can be refreshing and invigorating, yet this particular bamboo stalk seems amiss.

"y beasts distributed unevenly Why do these ones here seem so docile and lack any ferocity""You're right, where are the fairy beasts, this is just a pet!"The most enraged was Xue Ze, who slapped the fi...
