"This chapter is a supplement to yesterday’s, and there will be more shortly."
The woman who had been quietly listening next to Guangyao suddenly glared at him.
"What do you mean? You want my Set Holy Armor?"
Although Xiao Xiuming knew that Ye Zhongming was just negotiating with the commander, she felt that this man's underlying meaning had a hint of wanting to strip her of her clothes.
In the T1 Resistance Zone, no one dared to speak to her like that, not even her superior Guangyao.
With her main color being red and adorned with exquisite black patterns, the Rong Clan Holy Armor shone brightly, and a blood-red spear appeared in her hand.
This motion triggered a chain reaction.
The north city wall was originally a defense area for the Ying City Alliance. Although there was no one following Ye Zhongming, they were surrounded by people from Cloud Summit. He could have just negotiated peacefully, but now he activated his equipment and seemed ready to fight?
The Cloud Summit people, who were not known for being submissive nor intimidated in Ying City, saw their boss being threatened and could not tolerate it. They almost simultaneously redirected their weapons that were aimed at the outside of the city, with core members stepping forward, creating an overwhelming presence with the combined might of a double-digit number of five-star evolvers.
The other Ying City members, who had been slightly far away and initially slow to react, quickly noticed Xiao Xiu's armor glowing conspicuously in the dark, coupled with the sudden bloodlust emanating from the Cloud Summit people, causing them to flock towards this side.
Currently, Ye Zhongming might not be the bread and butter of Ying City, but he was undoubtedly a benefactor. After coming to Cloud Port, this feeling was even more pronounced among the people of Ying City.
In this city filled with marine life, where the number of craftsmen was twice that of Ying City, the average equipment level of the Cloud Port warriors was still not as good as those from Ying City, nor was their average evolution level. Why was that? It was because of Ye Zhongming's presence, as people from Ying City could obtain high-level equipment at a very low price from this Cloud Summit boss.
Not only did this provide excellent weapons and armor, but it also allowed them to use the remaining magic crystals to spin the wheel and improve their evolution levels.
At first, some dim-witted people from Ying City thought Ye Zhongming was a vampire, exploiting them in various ways. However, after coming here, they realized Ye Zhongming was no vampire, but rather an angel.
Just look at the price of weapons of the same level in Cloud Port compared to those in Cloud Summit. Once compared, everything became clear.
Moreover, they didn't even mention the previous defense battle where, thanks to Cloud Summit's presence, they had nearly zero casualties.
Now, seeing someone wanting to harm Boss Ye while he was surrounded in the Inner City was akin to trying to take their lives.
Things unfolded rather quickly. Guangyao felt angry upon hearing Ye Zhongming's words and hesitated to stop Xiao Xiu’s actions, not expecting such a reaction. He knew he had to explain things clearly, or else, if a conflict broke out, it would jeopardize not only the negotiations but their lives as well.
Before he could speak, Xiao Xiu let out a soft gasp. Guangyao turned around to see sweat immediately pouring from his forehead.
A black sickle was resting on Xiao Xiu's shoulder, and if the wielder applied any force, her head would be severed.
Thinking of Xiao Xiu's identity, he realized anything happening here would be disastrous... Guangyao felt a chill run down his spine.
"Mr. Ye, this is my sister. She just got a little excited!"
Ye Zhongming glanced at Guangyao, then at the visibly distressed Xiao Xiu, then waved for Xia Bai to release her, softly muttering something that left Guangyao stunned and furious, while Xiao Xiu was left dazed and indignant.
"Is she your real sister? Doesn’t look like it; what’s the surname of your neighbor?"
