Chapter 1953 Raw 2052 : Taking the Opportunity to Break Through

Li Xiuhai felt greatly startled. After being stunned for a long time, he reacted.

His eyes filled with disbelief. However, he did not dare to tarry on such huge business.

Li Xiuhai instructed the person beside him with a very grave expression, “Go invite Master Bai out!”

Master Bai was the highest-ranked appraiser in the Ancient Desolate Town’s Nine Cauldron Pavilion branch.

Inside a private room, Li Xiuhai smiled at Xiao Chen and said, “Little Brother, I have not asked for your great name yet.”

“Xiao with the grass head and Chen with the sun head,” Xiao Chen replied indifferently.

[TL Note: As mentioned in previous notes, this bit is a description of the characters for Xiao Chen’s name, as in Chinese, many words can be read the same way.]

“So, it is Young Master Xiao. Since you said you killed a Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake, shouldn’t you take something out to prove it?” A bright glint flickered in Li Xiuhai’s eyes. The smile on his face never faded.

Xiao Chen countered indifferently, “Even if I take something out, can you appraise it?”

Li Xiuhai could not help feeling embarrassed. “This humble self has managed this Nine Cauldron Pavilion branch for many years. I still have some discernment.”

“Let’s just wait for the appraiser. I don’t want to waste time,” Xiao Chen said, ignoring Li Xiuhai and making Li Xiuhai feel somewhat ill at ease.

“This young master is waiting for this old man?”

The door to the room opened, and an appropriately dressed, spirited old man with strong Soul Energy and an extraordinary air walked in.

Li Xiuhai looked like he saw his savior. He stood up and said, “Master Bai, you finally arrived. These two youths said that they hunted a Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake.”

“A Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake!”

Master Bai’s eyes lit up as he said seriously, “Show me the Beast Core.”

Without a word, Xiao Chen took out a mirror box with the flip of his hand and handed it to the other party.

“Boom!”

The mirror box opened, and a Great Desolate Eon Demonic Might immediately surged out in all directions.

The entire room shook slightly—even the formations supporting the room in secret shook.

An illusory Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake charged out of the Beast Core towards Master Bai. Li Xiuhai could not help feeling startled. “Master Bai!”

“Beast, you are seeking death!”

Master Bai snorted coldly, and strong Soul Energy spread out from his forehead. The Soul Energy directly scattered the Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake’s soul.

What strong Soul Energy!

Xiao Chen felt slightly startled. This Master Bai’s Soul Energy was probably comparable to that of a Sovereign Personage already. He could control it with ease and move it as he pleased, possessing boundlessly profound techniques for it.

“Good! Good! Good!”

Master Bai said “good” three times before bursting into wild laughter. “It is indeed a Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake’s Beast Core. To think that it died less than three days ago. Furthermore, you specially used a treasure box for restraining souls to store it. Little Brother, it looks like you have a lot of tricks up your sleeves.”

Li Xiuhai felt overjoyed. Since Master Bai said this, it was clearly a big transaction.

“Hahaha! Young Master Xiao, no, Young Sir Xiao, you are truly extraordinary, inspiring admiration. I wonder if you have the other parts as well? If you do, my Nine Cauldron Pavilion will take them all!”

Li Xiuhai looked at Xiao Chen with a wide grin. Even his form of address immediately changed.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “There’s no rush. Give me a price for this Beast Core first.”

“Right, right, right. There is no rush. Master Bai, what is the value of this Beast Core?” Li Xiuhai asked in anticipation.

After thinking for a while, Master Bai said, “The price of an overlord-class Sovereign-Personage-level ferocious beast’s Beast Core is rather well-known. It is normally about two million Primeval Heavenly Pills. However, Young Master Xiao’s Beast Core still has a lingering soul. Its value will definitely be at least twenty percent higher. I estimate three million Primeval Heavenly Pills should be about there.”

Li Xiuhai felt very pleased. This number was already an astronomical sum. However, when he glanced at Xiao Chen and Liu Ruyun covertly, he was quite startled.

Xiao Chen still looked calm, his expression unchanged. As for Liu Ruyun, she just smiled and did not appear shocked.

Of the two, one was the White Dragon King’s daughter, while the other was someone who had seen many grand scenes. How could they be easily bowled over by three million Primeval Heavenly Pills?

Liu Ruyun smiled and said, “I recall that in the Divine Dragon Empire’s Ancestor Dragon City, there was an auction, which was open only to Sovereign Personages and inner sect disciples. An overlord-class Sovereign-Personage-level ferocious beast’s Beast Core apparently sold for four million Primeval Heavenly Pills.

“If I recall correctly, the one hosting the auction then was the current Clan Head of the Bai Clan, and the Nine Cauldron Pavilion was the one that sold the Beast Core. The Bai Clan is one of the three appraiser clans of the Central Great Realm. I think they probably would not do anything to spoil their reputation.”

The moment Liu Ruyun said that, Li Xiuhai and Master Bai both felt startled.

Li Xiuhai looked at Liu Ruyun and said, “Might I ask who Young Miss is?”

“Do I need to say it one more time? Just properly deal with our business. There is no need to ask about our identities!”

Xiao Chen’s face sank in displeasure. This Li Xiuhai was truly showing no regard for what he said.

“Sorry, sorry. This humble one is at fault. This humble one is at fault.”

For some reason, when Li Xiuhai saw Xiao Chen’s expression, his heart quailed, and he quickly apologized.

Master Bai sent a voice projection. Li Xiuhai, this girl seems to have an extraordinary identity and understands my Bai Clan well. There is no way for us to deceive them. These two are people who have seen the world. If we do not properly grab hold of this business, it will end up in the hands of the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association.

Alright. Tell me, what is this Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake’s Beast Core worth?

Five million Primeval Heavenly Pills!

Good. We will offer this price, then. No matter what, we have to get this business. One complete Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake will equal half a year of our normal operations.

The two discussed in secret and quickly came to a decision.

“Auctions naturally result in inflated prices. If the two of you are willing to sell the other parts to our Nine Cauldron Pavilion, we can offer you five million Primeval Heavenly Pills for this Beast Core,” Li Xiuhai said with a serious expression as he looked at Xiao Chen. He apparently wanted to seize the initiative.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Just offer how much you are willing to pay; don’t add on other conditions. I do not like discussing business that way. Be more decisive. Five million Primeval Heavenly Pills, are you taking it or not?”

Interacting with businessmen was something very headache-inducing. While it looked like the other party had compromised greatly, if Xiao Chen agreed, the initiative would be on the other party’s side, allowing them to scoop up the other parts at low prices.

Xiao Chen hated to deal with such people the most. He added coldly, “Put away your small tricks. Whether you want to take it or not is up to you.”

Li Xiuhai immediately felt anxious. Sweat dripped off his forehead. He completely lost to Xiao Chen’s strong air.

Master Bai could no longer continue watching. He said seriously, “Then, let’s settle it this way: four million five hundred thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills with no other conditions. We will do things one by one. I’ll make the final call on this transaction.”

Li Xiuhai heaved a sigh of relief as he nodded. “Right, right, right. Master Bai will make the final call.”

“Alright. Four million five hundred thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills. Deal!”

After the two parties came to an agreement, Xiao Chen did not hesitate to take out nine hundred of the Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake’s purple-pattern wings, keeping one hundred for himself.

After Master Bai carefully appraised the wings, he offered two million Primeval Heavenly Pills.

Next were the essence of the Great Desolate Eon demonic blood, the venomous fangs that contained strong toxins, and then the softest of the Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake’s skin.

With every item that Xiao Chen took out, Li Xiuhai and Master Bai both felt startled and incredulous. There were so many Demonic Blood Thousand Wing Snake resources; did they really all come from one person?

Eventually, the two of them became numb to it, rendered speechless.

After all the transactions were completed, the total reached a horrifying twelve million Primeval Heavenly Pills.

Li Xiuhai took out a VIP card and gave it to Xiao Chen. Then, he smiled and said, “This is a Grade 1 VIP card of the Nine Cauldron Pavilion. You can enjoy very high discounts in all of the Nine Cauldron Pavilions in the Central Great Realm. This VIP card is extremely limited in number. In the future, Sir Xiao will be our Nine Cauldron Pavilion’s friend.”

Xiao Chen carefully put away the VIP card. Then, he nodded slightly and said, “I still need some things.”

Feeling excited, Li Xiuhai smiled and asked, “What does Sir Xiao want?”

“I need a Medicinal Pill, one for breaking through bottlenecks.”

Master Bai looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Young Master Xiao is currently a peak Consummation Star Venerate. Although your cultivation is not high, your accumulations are very formidable. The vastness and density of your Veritable Essence Energy far surpass a normal Holy Venerate’s. If you want to break through, you will need at least a Rank 4 Heavenly Pill. The Nine Cauldron Pavilion happens to have one such pill.”

“What Medicinal Pill is that?”

“The Seven Apertures Cloud Breaking Pill! It is a Rank 4 Heavenly Pill worth two million Primeval Heavenly Pills. If Young Master Xiao wants to buy it, you need only one million five hundred thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills.”

“I’ll buy it!”

This was a Medicinal Pill for breaking through that Xiao Chen did not even dare to dream of in the past. Now, he did not bat an eyelid at buying it.

It was rare for such fortuitous encounters to come by. It was not in his character to miss out on such an opportunity to break through to Holy Venerate.

In the past, Xiao Chen did not dare to think about such things. Now that he had so many Primeval Heavenly Pills, he naturally dared to dream of anything.

Xiao Chen added in a lower voice, “I also want you to help me find a blacksmith that can forge an inherited Dao Tool by himself. The price is not a problem.”

Master Bai thought for a while before he said, “A blacksmith that can forge an inherited Dao Tool by himself? That would be a Rank 3 Grandmaster blacksmith. Such a person is not easy to find. Li Xiuhai, do you know of any here?”

Li Xiuhai smiled and said, “I am someone who became the manager of Ancient Desolate Town’s Nine Cauldron Pavilion branch. Naturally, I know people from all walks of life. Give me one day. I will definitely find one for Sir Xiao.”

Xiao Chen nodded and handed the Tyrant Saber to Li Xiuhai. “There is no rush. That person will need to see this saber first. If he is confident, then bring him.”

“It’s really heavy!”

After Li Xiuhai received the Tyrant Saber, his expression changed slightly at the difficulty of bearing it.

Shock flashed in the eyes of Master Bai, who was at the side. However, he did not say anything.

Soon, Xiao Chen received the Seven Apertures Cloud Breaking Pill. Then, he asked Liu Ruyun, who was beside him, “Is there anything that you want?”

Smiling, Liu Ruyun retorted, “What do you think?”

Xiao Chen had asked a pointless question. After he put away the Seven Apertures Cloud Breaking Pill and boarded the Heaven Suspending War Chariot, he thought, Things went smoothly on my side. I wonder, how are things on Murong Yan’s side?

“Sir Xiao, take care. Do come frequently.”

Li Xiuhai sent off Xiao Chen and Liu Ruyun warmly. When the war chariot flew off, he could no longer control his expression. He laughed loudly, “Hahahaha! This is great! We made transactions totaling over ten million Primeval Heavenly Pills in one day. If we have more of such transactions, I can leave this backwater by the end of the year.”

Master Bai’s expression did not change. As he looked at the Tyrant Saber in Li Xiuhai’s hand, he muttered, “It really is the Saber of Misfortune, the Tyrant Saber.”

“Master Bai, did you say something?”

“Nothing.”
