I'll Eat It. Satisfied?

"Killing you all? No way, that would have such a bad influence. I'm a kind-hearted person, and I hate fighting and killing the most."

Xiang Dong's words were quite convincing, after all, the treasure of Merit in his possession was the best proof.

For some reason, neither Zhun Ti nor Jie Yin believed it at all.

In fact, Xiang Dong knew very well that, let alone these two, even Hongjun, who was so rich that he could build the Treasure-Splitting Cliff, couldn't produce eight hundred Innate Spirit Treasures.

Hmm, that's not right!

The Heaven and Earth Cauldron, which can transform acquired to innate, seems to be currently in the hands of the Qiankun Ancestor, but will eventually fall into the hands of Hongjun. To possess this treasure, one must be willing to put in the effort; collecting eight hundred pieces is still possible.

But none of this has anything to do with the two Western Saints. The reason he asked for such an exorbitant price was to prepare for the subsequent bargaining.

They won't agree to open the windows unless the roof is ripped off.

"Fellow Daoist, you've really put my fellow disciple and I in a difficult position. We have nothing of value; let alone eight hundred items, we can't even produce eight spiritual treasures."

"Yes, yes, fellow Daoist, we are truly poor," Zhun Ti quickly echoed. "If you don't believe me, you are welcome to search us. If you find a decent spiritual treasure, we will be at your disposal."

"Alright, alright, stop putting on an act in front of me." Xiang Dong waved his hand impatiently. "Look at your poor, stingy appearance, eight hundred pieces really is too much for you."

Both Zhun Ti and Jieyin breathed a sigh of Jie Yin; it seemed there was room for negotiation.

"If you can't produce eight hundred items, I won't force you." Xiang Dong held up one finger. "How about this, ten items, ten Innate Spirit Treasures, and we'll call it a day."

"Ten items?"

Jie Yin a sigh of relief, but his face still showed some pain. After working so hard for so long, they had only managed to collect about twenty Innate Spirit Treasures.

Now, with just one sentence, Xiang Dong has taken most of their wealth.

It hurts, it hurts so much, I can't breathe.

Therefore, Zhun Ti still wanted to try again. "Fellow Daoist, we still cannot provide ten Innate Spirit Treasures. How about this, my fellow disciple and I are willing to do something for you, as long as it does not violate our Daoist principles, we will not hesitate to die for it."

This is an attempt to use a debt of gratitude to repay Lingbao. If someone else made such a promise, it would be somewhat credible.

But you two are notorious deadbeats, and you've even learned to solve the problem by dealing with those who owe you Yinguo when you can't repay the karmic Yinguo.

Therefore, Xiang Dong could not believe a single word they said.

Don't give me that, I don't trust you guys.

Xiang Dong showed no mercy; the more you refused, the more he wanted to extort your spiritual treasures.

"Ten Innate Spirit Treasures —if you can't produce them, none of you are leaving today."

"Fellow Daoist, you should just kill me. Senior Brother, you should leave quickly; every one of us who can escape is a lifesaver."

Zhun Ti also resorted to shamelessness, putting on an air of "a dead pig doesn't fear boiling water," saying, "I have no magic treasures, but you can take my worthless life if you want."

"Junior brother..."

Jie Yin grief-stricken, and the two put on a show of brotherly affection, but Jie Yin still didn't take out the magic weapon.

Xuehuang watched from the sidelines, somewhat speechless.

She simply couldn't understand it. You're supposed to be Great Unity Golden Immortals, right? Even if you're really poor, you don't have to be so shameless.

Looking at their money-grubbing attitude, Xiang Dong felt quite helpless. They truly lived up to their reputation as the future two Western Saints, two pieces of meat that were hard to swallow.

If you don't throw out some bait, there's no way to get them to willingly part with their things, so Xiang Dong had to change his strategy.

"Alright, alright, stop acting."

Xiang Dong waved his hand, giving him an expression that said, "You guys have defeated me."

"Alright then, I won't take your Innate Spirit Treasures for nothing. I can tell you about a fortuitous opportunity."

"Fortuitous opportunity?"

"Yes, by fortuitous opportunity, Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure."

"Fellow Daoist, is what you say true?"

"Guaranteed authentic, no doubt about it." Xiang Dong raised his phone. "If even a fraction of it is fake, I'll eat it. Satisfied now?"

With Xiang Dong's words as a guarantee, and the endorsement of the Acquired Merit Treasure, how could it be fake?

Therefore, they were much more willing to part with their items, although it still hurt their wallets. But exchanging ten low-grade Innate Spirit Treasures for one Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure was a sure-fire deal.

And so, one, two, three... ten low-grade Lower-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, of poor quality and with mediocre effects, were piled up on the ground.

Xiang Dong shook his head, "Is this all you two have?"

"Hehe, it's not that I'm poor, I really have nothing of value." Zhun Ti chuckled, then rubbed his hands together like a fly and pressed on, "Fellow Daoist, what is that fortuitous opportunity?"

"Don't rush, you can't say it now, or it won't work."

Xiang Dong feigned mystery, but in reality, he had no intention of fulfilling his promise; his true aim was simply to trick Lingbao into handing over the treasure.

Now that I have the goods, how could I possibly give you fortuitous opportunity?

This is called a "pig butchering scam".

The biggest mastermind behind the Primordial World pig-slaughtering scam was Hongjun. They were just two fat pigs being slaughtered. Now, he was merely teaching them a lesson. It would be good if they could learn their lesson, since the cut he made wasn't too cruel.

But just as he made up his mind, his phone suddenly vibrated and became extremely hot; anyone who didn't know better would have thought he'd been playing games for hours.

At the same time, he felt as if he were being watched from the shadows, and his Primordial Spirit sent him a warning.

This feeling is the Heavenly Dao.

Xiang Dong quickly figured it out.

A verbal agreement is still an agreement, and agreements must be kept.

Under the Heavenly Dao, Yinguo cycle, and retribution is inevitable.

^(*￣(oo)￣)^.

"Alright, "Xiang Dong sighed inwardly. "Looks like this 'pig butchering scam' isn't going to work out."

Xiang Dong didn't even want these ten Lower-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, but even a small mosquito is still meat, and it was already very good for the Iron-Eating Beast Tribe at present. Anything better would be a crime against possessing a treasure.

With a casual wave of his hand, he placed the magical treasure in front of the Iron-Eating Beast leader. Looking at these black and white beasts, Xiang Dong was overjoyed and patted the head of one of the cubs.

The little guy paused for a moment, then rubbed his fluffy head against Xiang Dong's palm.

"Consider this compensation. I've also left some things here in the hopes that they'll help you get through what's to come..."

Xiang Dong didn't say the words "Witch-Demon Kalpa," hoping that the Iron-Eating Beast Clan wouldn't get involved with the Demon Race.

However, that seems unlikely, as there appears to be Iron-Eating Beast among the Demon Saints of the Demon Race.

Thinking this, Xiang Dong waved his hand and scattered dozens of sunflower seeds, all of which were at the level of Innate Spirit Roots.

Having arranged everything, Xiang Dong clapped his hands and prepared to leave.
