Chapter 101: Treasure Detector

When Ye Feng led Pearl out of the room, Long Tian secretly gave Ye Feng a thumbs up. Qing Lang and the others were utterly impressed, though they inwardly grumbled: Being good-looking really does make a difference—complete preferential treatment.
After introducing Pearl to Long Yue and the others, Long Yue never expected her to live with Ye Feng and the rest. In her mind, Pearl, Ye Feng, and her own brother should have been sworn enemies.
Although Pearl was still not in top form and seemed listless, she showed some enthusiasm toward Long Yue and the others.
Long Yue wasn’t unreasonable. Besides, she had heard from Qing Lang and the others outside the room about Pearl’s parents having died, realizing that this woman was also pitiable. Her initial wariness faded, and the four women quickly became close friends.
Long Tian pulled Ye Feng aside and whispered, “Three women already cause enough trouble—what about four? It’ll be chaos! And all four of them are born strong…”
“What do you plan to do?” Ye Feng glanced at the four of them chatting happily. It seemed only the first day, yet things were already lively.
“I plan to send Yue’er back to the Long family. Zhuge Ling’er will surely follow her! Then, with just the two remaining women, things will be much quieter,” Long Tian said, outlining his plan.
Ye Feng frowned slightly, glanced at Kelly who occasionally spoke, and shook his head. “No. At least for now, Long Yue can’t leave here. Kelly’s autism has only improved a little. If she and Zhuge Ling’er leave, Kelly will revert to her old self. Pearl is a woman who does as she pleases and doesn’t care about others’ feelings. She and Kelly might not get along! Let Long Yue and the others stay for a while. It’s not too late for them to leave once Kelly and Qing Lang have gotten used to each other.”
Long Tian looked at Ye Feng helplessly. He really didn’t want to leave Long Yue here, but Kelly’s autism indeed needed Long Yue and Zhuge Ling’er’s help. Reluctantly, he gritted his teeth, ready to agree—until he suddenly remembered something. “There’s only one three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment. With so many people now, there’s no space to sleep! Let’s check if there are any other vacant apartments in this building so those women can live together.”
Only then did Ye Feng notice this problem. He nodded in agreement. “Just buy two apartments! You have plenty of money anyway!”

“I’m from the Black and Blue Club, not some prostitution ring. Although those two houses are just a small thing, they’re still my hard-earned money! Money meant to support my mistresses in the future!!!” Long Tian roared in anger.
“The income from Emperor Bar is enough for you to support more mistresses in the future. If you can handle that, it’ll also be enough to support eight or nine of them! Stop acting poor in front of me!” Ye Feng pushed away Long Tian’s pitiful face.
“Almost forgot—I still have a bar!” Long Tian slapped his forehead and laughed. “I’ve made up my mind. From now on, I’ll be the bar owner, singing songs, drinking wine, and hanging out with girls every day! Hehe, what a heavenly life!”
“You know how to get to the ghost market near City H, right?” Ye Feng asked casually.
“What are you going to that kind of place for?” Long Tian looked at him curiously.
“To see if there’s anything I need!” Ye Feng had already made up his mind. He planned to exchange some of his items for money and then buy something that could help him reach the second-level domain value.
“What kind of thing? Is it only available at the ghost market?” Long Tian pressed further.
“I don’t know. I’ll only know what I need once I see it.” Ye Feng fell silent for a moment before shaking his head. To be honest, he didn’t even know what he wanted. For now, both jade and diamonds could be exchanged for second-level domain value, but the amount obtained at once was less than a fraction, making it extremely slow to accumulate domain value and costing a lot of money.
“I’ve only heard of that place; I’ve never been there! I don’t know exactly where it is, but I know someone who might know. I can take you to meet her!” Long Tian had no choice but to compromise.
“Mm!” Ye Feng nodded and sent his mental energy into the void realm to check the items in his storage cabinet. None of them could be exchanged for second-level domain value.
“I’ll take care of the house issue! You must have other things to do!” Seeing Ye Feng deep in thought, Long Tian shook his head helplessly and left.
“I’ll be out for a while!” Ye Feng walked over to Qing Lang. “Keep an eye on them.”
“Don’t worry!” Qing Lang patted his chest and smiled.
As soon as Ye Feng closed the apartment door, he stepped into the void realm.
Ye Feng took out the energy detector. “I need to add a function to detect non-living energy objects!”
“That function cannot be added!”
Seeing the message appear in front of him, Ye Feng was puzzled. “Why?”

“The energy fluctuations of living beings are different from those of inanimate objects; they operate according to two distinct mechanisms. Energy detectors can only detect the energy fluctuations of living beings and cannot sense those of inanimate objects.”
“Well then, I need something to detect treasures—a device that can sense inanimate energy,” Ye Feng said helplessly. He knew that since he couldn’t add functions to the existing detector, he would have to buy another one that could work.
As soon as he finished speaking, the numerous shelves present instantly turned into just one row of shelves. On that row, there were only three products, all in the shape of glasses.
“Mineral Detector: Can detect ores containing special energy within a 10-kilometer range, classify them by quality, and provide detailed information and usage details about such ores… Requires 98,631 first-level domain points.”
“Spirit Detector: Can detect various spirits within an area the size of a city and mark their strength using different colors… Requires 13,218 first-level domain points!”
“Treasure Detector: Can detect all inanimate objects with energy fluctuations within an area of 1,000 square meters and mark them with different colors based on the intensity of their energy. This product is still in the trial phase and currently only can distinguish items by color; it cannot provide names or detailed information about various substances… On sale at a special price—requires 10,000 first-level domain points!”
Ye Feng checked the number displayed on his remaining domain points: 32,743.
This amount was far too little to buy a Mineral Detector. Frustrated, he realized he most wanted a detector that could measure the energy contained within ores, allowing him to dig for them and exchange them for domain points. After hesitating for a while, he decided to buy the Treasure Detector.
“10,000 first-level domain points will be consumed. Please confirm whether to proceed with the purchase?”
After confirming, Ye Feng watched with regret as his first-level domain points dropped to 22,743. He took the Treasure Detector from the shelf, saying, “I hope it won’t disappoint me!” Then he placed it in his storage cabinet before happily leaving the Virtual Realm…
