However, Ye Ye's struggle also failed to redeem Yang Shuo and the others' determination to follow Yue Bufan away.

After Yang Shuo personally broke his left leg, this group of loose cultivators thought that they no longer owed Ye Ye anything, and walked directly to Yue Bufan's side, indicating their attitude of wanting to leave this mine.

Yue Bufan laughed, and after glancing at Ye Ye extremely proudly, he left the basement with Yang Shuo and the others in a dashing manner.

In the originally lively and noisy basement, only Ye Ye, Chen Ping and Qi Lao, who was still lying on the ground in a coma, were left at this time!

"Alas!"

Seeing this, Chen Ping sighed softly, put one hand on Ye Ye's shoulder, and was ready to say something.

"If you want to comfort me, you don't have to! Even if there are only two people left in the entire mine, I will swear to defend to the end! I don't believe it, without them, this mine can't complete the mission!"

Ye Ye clenched his fists, and there was a hint of determination on his face, as if he had recovered from the blow of Yang Shuo and the others leaving.

After all, they didn't have many tasks in this mine, and Yang Shuo and the others had already mined some of the ore before leaving, so if Ye Ye wanted to find a way, he might not be able to complete the task assigned to him by the Sea Demon Sect on time.

However, Chen Ping didn't mean to comfort Ye Ye at all, but hesitated for a moment and continued to say calmly to Ye Ye: "If I follow them to Yue Bufan's mine, you shouldn't hold a grudge against me, right?"

Ye Ye was struck by lightning, and suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Ping blankly, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Alas!"

But Chen Ping didn't even have a word of explanation, he patted Ye Ye's shoulder, sighed again, and then left the mine by himself, chasing Yang Shuo and the others and quickly disappeared in front of Ye Ye's eyes.

In the huge mine, except for Ye Ye who was still standing in place, only the unconscious Qi Lao was left to keep him, and he fell into a peaceful sleep at Ye Ye's feet!

Chen Ping, who left from the basement, quickly caught up with Yang Shuo and the others, and also expressed his willingness to join Yue Bufan's command. After Yue Bufan happily accepted him, Chen Ping followed Yang Shuo and the others to the mine that Yue Bufan was in charge of, and never looked back at Ye Ye again.

It's just that unlike Yang Shuo and others who want to make money, Chen Ping's ultimate purpose in betraying Ye Ye is to make it impossible for Ye Ye to complete the task of the month, so as to have a conflict with the disciples of the Sea Demon Sect in the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range.

Because Chen Ping concluded that Ye Ye would not be arrested, if the Sea Demon Sect wanted to attack him, Ye Ye would definitely rise up and resist. At that time, he Chen Ping will have the opportunity to wreak havoc in the mines, so that their Sea Demon Sect will no longer be able to use the ore of the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range to forge divine weapons in a short period of time.

Although he was a little sorry for Ye Ye with gratitude, Chen Ping was burdened with the hope of the entire Flame Gate Sect and even the entire East China Sea, so he could only say sorry to Ye Ye in his heart.

What's more, after the betrayal of Yang Shuo and the others, even if Chen Ping stayed to help Ye Ye, the possibility of the two of them completing the task of the month was still very low. So Chen Ping finally chose to leave, leaving Ye Ye alone in the mine to clean up the mess.

The next day, in the mine that Ye Ye was in charge of, the self-abandonment and lifelessness expected by others did not happen.

Sonorous sonor!

Although the speed at which a person completes the task is very slow, Ye Ye still did not give up.

Still digging ore with a shovel.

Even if he and Qi Lao were left in the mine now, Ye Ye had no intention of giving up. He dragged the cart around the mine and painstakingly put the mined ore into the cart one by one.

Ye Ye's eyes were sharp, and his face was full of unwillingness. Not only did he have to successfully complete his mission and gain the qualifications to continue lurking in the Forbidden Demon Mountains, but he also had to make those who thought he was certain to die dumbfounded, and never dared to despise him again.

"Elder Qi, don't sit all the time, hurry up and help me!

While Ye Ye was mining, he shouted at Elder Qi who was sitting on a rock not far away with his eyes closed.

However, Qi Lao didn't react like an old monk who had entered the meditation, and he didn't seem to be able to hear Ye Ye's voice at all.

Ye Ye's face was gloomy, and then his eyes were red and he shouted at Qi Lao again: "Old immortal, don't pretend! Don't you think I can see it? Hurry up and come and work, if you are lazy again, believe it or not, I will directly let you fake it?"

Because he was deeply impressed by the scene where Qi Lao fought back at Yue Bufan before, Ye Ye didn't believe that Qi Lao was really hearing disordered at all. If it weren't for the fact that he was really not young, Ye Ye even suspected that Qi Lao had pretended to be in a coma before, and the purpose was to escape Yue Bufan's exploitation and stay in his own mine to retire leisurely.

After all, according to the rules of the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range, as long as Qi Lao does not serve as the cave master, even if he does nothing every month, he will only stop working for three days, and there is no harm at all.

But Ye Ye will not let him use himself easily, if he wants to stay in this mine, he must show his due value. Therefore, when he saw that Qi Lao had been closing his eyes and recuperating since he woke up, he finally couldn't help but issue a malicious threat to him.

Ye Ye originally thought that after he threatened, Qi Lao would obediently come over to help and start mining with him. However, unexpectedly, Qi Lao still sat leisurely on the rock with his eyes closed, and his expression was extremely free, as if the place where he was was not a mine cave at all, but some fairyland on earth.

"Huh, did I really misunderstand him? Was it just a coincidence that he was right with Yue Bufan last time?"

Seeing that Qi Lao was unmoved, Ye Ye finally had a trace of doubt about his judgment.

"But that's fine! If you really can't complete the task, let Qi Lao take the blame for me! Anyway, he can't hear anything, so it's convenient for me to put all the blame on him!"

Ye Ye seemed to have finally figured it out, and while talking to himself, a relaxed smile appeared on his face, as if he had found a way out for himself.

Shout!

As soon as the words fell, Qi Lao came to Ye Ye's side with lightning speed, picked up the shovel under his feet and began to work diligently, and his movements were even more skilled than Yang Shuo and the others.

Ye Ye seemed to have expected it, and he was not surprised to see Qi Lao's movements, and after throwing a look at Qi Lao who saw through everything, he also joined the task of mining ore.

Although the two of them were diligent, Ye Ye also knew that they would not be able to mine 3,000 purple iron concentrates in a few days alone. Therefore, Ye Ye went through almost all the mines in the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range during the interval of mining, hoping to hire some people from some large mines.

It's just that most of the cave owners of these mines are afraid of Yue Bufan's influence, and even if they have extra manpower, they are not willing to lend it to Ye Ye easily.

Ye Ye had no choice but to increase the remuneration again and again, hoping to impress these mining monks with benefits.

The cave owners of these mines were in a dilemma, so they could only go to Yue Bufan's mine collectively and ask him how to deal with Ye Ye.

"Cave Master Yue, now that Shen Fei has raised the hiring price to the level of two thousand golden tickets for one ore, many of the monks under my command are a little moved. If I don't think of a way, it is estimated that someone will hide from me Shen Fei's mining cave. ”

"That's right! Two thousand golden tickets for one ore, to be honest, even I am a little tempted by this price! Yue Cave Master, if you don't particularly hate Shen Fei, I really want to bring my brothers to cooperate with him!"

In Yue Bufan's mine, several cave masters who came here on behalf of other cave owners reported to Yue Bufan the price Ye Ye had offered them.

Yue Bufan was also taken aback when he heard this, and asked them: "Two thousand golden tickets for one ore, even if you help him complete the task, the golden tickets he got from the Sea Demon Sect are not enough to pay you, what does Shen Fei think?"

"We don't know about this!"

"But Shen Fei is a martial king powerhouse after all, even if he can't take it out at once, he should be able to pay it off slowly in the future!"

The few cave masters in front of Yue Bufan did not have any hostility towards Ye Ye, if it weren't for Yue Bufan's attitude, they would have gone to Ye Ye to make money. Now they came to Yue Bufan's mine to know Yue Bufan's true attitude towards Ye Ye, if the situation was not as bad as they imagined, these cave owners would send the excess manpower in the cave to Ye Ye's mine to mine as soon as they returned.

Yue Bufan frowned, as if he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

As one of the only two Martial King powerhouses in the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range, Yue Bufan really wanted to get closer to Ye Ye at the beginning and take care of each other. But just before he could take action, Elder Monk Jie of the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range came to Yue Bufan and asked him to test Ye Ye's depth through this method, so that Monk Jie could assess whether Ye Ye had any value in wooing.

Yue Bufan himself has also been wooed by Monk Jie many times, but he has not yet decided whether to sacrifice his freedom to join the Sea Demon Sect, so he has never given a clear answer to the other party. If he didn't help this time, Yue Bufan estimated that Monk Jie's dissatisfaction with him would rise again.

In desperation, Yue Bufan could only go to Ye Ye's mine to take Chen Ping, Yang Shuo and the others away, making Ye Ye fall into an embarrassing situation where no one was available. Now the cave owners of these mines reported to him Ye Ye's latest actions, which suddenly made Yue Bufan a little confused about Ye Ye's plan.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Yue Bufan still decided to continue to play his role, and said calmly to these cave masters with a calm face: "Since Shen Fei is so generous, you don't need to miss this good opportunity to earn the golden ticket. But I don't care how many people you each send to help Shen Fei, you can only help him mine 2,000 ores at most! In this way, Shen Fei owes you as much as four million gold tickets, and even if he successfully completes the task, it is impossible to completely plug this hole. What's more, with Shen Fei and Qi Lao alone, it is impossible to mine the remaining thousand ores in a few days, and it will be up to him to account for the Sea Demon Sect and the monks who helped him when the time comes!"

As soon as the other cave masters heard Yue Bufan's plan, they all had a new understanding of Yue Bufan's insidiousness. However, now with Yue Bufan's support, even if they can't get the full remuneration from Ye Ye in the end, they should be able to get back most of the golden tickets. In addition, the mines of the Forbidden Demon Mountain Range basically did not dare to offend Yue Bufan, so these cave masters all went back to carry out Yue Bufan's order after glancing at each other.
