Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue expressed their gratitude to Mr. Yang: "We were able to successfully rescue so many blood slaves this time, thanks to Mr. Yang."
Mr. Yang clinked glasses with Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue. “I am very honored to be able to provide assistance to General Ye. General Ye, you don’t have to thank me. On the contrary, on behalf of the Iron Fist Mercenary Group, I should thank General Ye for helping us get rid of Hagrid and avenging our many brothers who died at the hands of the Demon Axe Gang.”
Jiang Yixue pushed Ye Feng, blinked and smiled, "Okay, both of you don't have to be so polite, you thank him and he thanks you, Brother Ye, let's do something practical."
Ye Feng understood what he meant and took out a top-grade white jade magic crystal the size of a ping-pong ball from his arms.
The white color is crystal clear and emits a soft glow under the light, which contains a mysterious energy.
"This white jade magic crystal is a top-grade magic crystal. It is my way of expressing my gratitude to Yang."
Seeing that Ye Feng gave him such a large piece of top-grade magic crystal, Mr. Yang was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise in his eyes. He rarely saw such top-grade white jade crystals, and he wanted to take it immediately.
But he did not reach out to take it, but waved his hand and said: "No, no, I can't accept such a heavy gift, General Ye, please take it back."
Ye Feng pointed lightly with his finger, and the white jade magic crystal the size of a ping-pong ball seemed to have eyes. It drew a graceful arc in the air and fell squarely into the pocket of the undergraduate.
"I will stay here for a few more days. This white jade magic crystal will be used as accommodation and food expenses for these days. You must accept it, otherwise I will move out now and never set foot in the Iron Fist Hotel again."
Mr. Yang wanted to take the white jade magic crystal out of his pocket, but he felt that the white jade magic crystal was as heavy as a thousand pounds and he couldn't take it out at all. Moreover, Ye Feng's attitude was so firm that he had to accept the magic crystal.
"Then I will respectfully obey your command."
"Hey, is that right? I would like to ask Mr. Yang to do me a favor."
"General, please give your orders."
"I want to enter the forbidden city. Can I do that with the combined medal?"
"Yes, do you have the Joint Medal?"
Ye Feng took the Silver Crescent Medal in his hand. It was the medal that Ye Feng had snatched from the brothers Huang Jue and Huang Ming.
Mr. Yang took the silver crescent medal in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while. It was engraved with the family crests of the two major lords' mansions, Nangong Wei and Zuo Lu.
He was amazed at the exquisite craftsmanship of the Joint Medal and returned it to Ye Feng: "I have always heard of this kind of medal, but this is the first time I have seen it. It really has the family crests of the two great lords. It is eye-opening. With this thing, you can definitely enter the Forbidden City. However, in addition to this Joint Medal, you must have a good reason to enter the Forbidden City."
Jiang Yixue and Ye Feng frowned again.
Ordinary people cannot enter this forbidden city unless they have the order of the lord, or are demon soldiers defending the ancient demon realm. Only then can they enter with the joint medal, and this kind of joint medal is not awarded casually.
"Yeah, we should think of a good reason, but what good reason should we think of? They definitely won't order takeout."
“What do you mean takeout?”
Ye Feng smiled bitterly and pointed at the delicious bone steak: "Takeout means they want to eat bone steak, so they order it from you and have it delivered to their door."
Mr. Yang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "This is really a good sales method. General Ye, I didn't expect you to be proficient in business."
Ye Feng smiled bitterly and said, "This way of selling takeout food is very common in my hometown. It was not invented by me."
Mr. Yang smiled and said, "Speaking of takeout, I actually have a good idea. I just got the news this morning that Nangong Wei led Generals Badu and Bakong to the Forbidden City. There are no hotels or shops there, only military canteens. Soldiers from the Forbidden City have come to eat here, and they complained that the food there is the same as the food fed to ferocious beasts, and it is particularly unpalatable. So, you can bring some small bone steaks and say that they are specially for them to eat, so that you can enter the Forbidden City. What do you think?"
Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue looked at each other and their brows relaxed.
Jiang Yixue smiled and said, "We need to prepare more so that we can bribe the soldiers guarding the city."
"That's not a problem. We bought over a thousand kilograms of boneless steak today. That's our specialty. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it and bring you 500 kilograms. How about that?"
Ye Feng thanked him and said, "Give us 500 kilograms? Is that enough for you?"
"Whether it is enough or not is up to me to control."
After a while, the Iron Fist Hotel prepared several large bags of short rib steaks, and the strong, delicious smell of the sauce could be smelled through the bags.
Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue drove the magic crystal car and brought more than 500 kilograms of delicious small bone steak to the forbidden city.
Ye Feng and Jiang Yixue came to the Forbidden City for the first time. They had only seen the Forbidden City on a hologram and felt that it was more majestic than the other two cities, the Desert City and the Iron Sand City.
Seeing the forbidden city up close this time confirmed that their feelings were correct.
On the towering city walls, there are obelisks and magic crystal cannons.
Each obelisk is simple and mysterious, inlaid with purple magic crystals.
These purple magic crystals emit a faint light. Although it does not look strong during the day, Ye Feng can see that the magic crystals embedded on each towering obelisk are at least the size of a fist.
There are also obelisks erected on the walls surrounding Nangong City, but their obelisks are inlaid with blue magic crystals, which are obviously less powerful than the purple magic crystals on the Forbidden City.
It's not a question of money, but a question of level.
Although this forbidden city was built in the Ninth Demon Realm, its guards are all silver-armored magic warriors from the Great Lord Realm, and the jurisdiction belongs to the Great Lord Alliance. Even if Nangong Wei and Zuo Lu want to enter alone, they must have the joint medal of the two great lords.
Standing at the foot of the city wall, Ye Feng looked up at the bowl-thick gun barrel and the towering and solid black iron city wall, and felt a majestic aura coming from the great lord world.
The soldiers guarding the city saw Ye Feng from afar. The gun barrels on the top of the wall made the sound of the turret rotating, clattering, and the gears creaking. The muzzles of the three main guns were slightly lowered and aimed at the only way into the city, the city gate.
The soldier stopped Ye Feng and asked, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Ye Feng took out the joint medal with a smile: "We are delivering food. Lord Nangong and Lord Zuolu are already in the city. They told me to buy food from the Desert City and send it over at noon. This is the joint medal that Lord Zuolu gave me."
The Joint Medal emitted a silvery glow under the sunlight. The soldiers guarding the city carefully examined it and confirmed that it was authentic.
