The news that a weapons dealer with many high-end weapons had come to the independent continent spread like wildfire. Many large factions received this news.
Ji Xiao immediately contacted Ji Ziyin. "h.e.l.lo, are you at home?"
Ji Ziyin had just finished applying a facial mask. She turned on the loudspeaker and placed the phone on the dressing table. Looking at her face in the mirror, she unscrewed the facial cream expressionlessly. "What's wrong? Why did you call me?"
"Do you know that a weapons dealer came to the independent continent?" Ji Xiao had seen many storms and did not feel the least bit embarra.s.sed. "You should have heard this news since you've been following someone from the reclusive families."
Ji Ziyin's hand paused and she slowly lowered her eyes. She put the facial cream back down and slowly said, "Yes, I know."
Her tone was casual, but her heart was beating like a drum.
Yu Qingliu had never mentioned this weapons dealer to her. She only just found out from Ji Xiao.
Ji Xiao impatiently asked, "Since you know this person, do you know where he lives?"
"This…" Ji Ziyin pulled off the mask and picked up her cell phone. She pretended to be in a dilemma. "I can't say."
Ji Xiao choked. He was a little angry.
However, when Ji Lingfeng expelled Ji Ziyin from the list of candidates nurtured by the Ji family's new generation, he also hit her when she was down. Therefore, even if Ji Ziyin's tone made him angry, he could only suppress his anger and smile apologetically. "Ziyin, this person has a lot of high-end new weapons. There might be a big boss behind him who has never appeared before. If we can get in touch with him first…"
Ji Ziyin was a smart person.
Ji Xiao did not finish his sentence.
However, he knew very well that Ji Ziyin would understand what he meant.
If they could build a relations.h.i.+p with this mysterious weapons dealer before everyone else, their status in the independent continent would rise.
After all, in this day and age, nothing was harder than fists!
"You know Elder Yu has the support of the reclusive families. If you can cooperate with this weapons dealer… you can hold your own in the future even without relying on the Ji family." Ji Xiao lowered his voice and persuaded her in an extremely seductive tone. "Don't you want to take another step up?"
"I understand."
Ji Ziyin stared at her beautiful face in the mirror and quickly interrupted him. "I'll consider it. I'll contact you if it's suitable."
Ji Xiao originally wanted Yu Qingliu's connections and thought that she would tell him the weapons dealer's address. Unexpectedly, Ji Ziyin hung up without revealing anything.
He was so angry, but he could only resign himself to it. He was looking forward to Ji Ziyin's 'good' news.
…
On the other side.
Ji Ziyin sat in front of the dressing table for a long time after hanging up.
She was still digesting what Ji Xiao had told her.
Ji Ziyin suddenly sat upright for a while before grabbing her phone and calling Lu Yiming.
Beep…
The call went through.
However, after ringing more than ten times, Lu Yiming still did not pick up her call.
Ji Ziyin's expression was dark as she slowly put down her cell phone, feeling frustrated and uneasy.
