Buy a Car, Senior Sister!

"I'll make you pay for killing my wife and children..." The giant python spoke in human words.

Boom~

Before it could finish speaking, a figure lunged at it. The giant python was instantly swallowed by the Blood Qi True Flame and reduced to ashes.

"I've got anger to vent, and you still dare show your face!"

Lin Chen gave a cold snort. What had happened in Tumen Village had left him in a foul mood, and now the giant python had appeared to block his way. He couldn't even be bothered to let it finish speaking before sending it straight to the afterlife.

"Slain Third Order giant python. Origin +2000."

Even the system's notification did little to improve Lin Chen's mood. He called a ride back to school, but it took more than half an hour to arrive. That only made him more determined to buy a car.

In the city, it was one thing; a ride usually arrived within ten minutes. But once he left the city limits, getting one wouldn't be so easy.

When he returned to the dorm, Fatty still wasn't back. The battle last night had probably been intense, and Fatty hadn't recovered yet, so Lin Chen didn't disturb him.

After a quick lunch, Lin Chen didn't take on any more missions. Instead, he planned to buy a car. Just then, his phone rang.

"Xu Fei?"

Seeing who was calling, Lin Chen paused. Was it about what had happened in Tumen Village?

As soon as he answered, Xu Fei's voice came through. "Lin Chen, I heard about Tumen Village. Thank you. If it weren't for you, the Demon Suppression Division would have suffered heavy losses, and Tumen Village might have been wiped out too."

"No need to thank me. I took the mission," Lin Chen replied calmly.

"This mission involved a Fourth Order expert, so the reward has been increased. It's two million in total."

"Sure, just transfer it to my account." Lin Chen didn't think much of it. Money was just a number to him now.

"By the way, the Bronze Coffin has been sold. My friend offered thirty million. That makes thirty-two million in total; I'll transfer it to your account together." Xu Fei's voice came through the phone again.

Thirty million?

Lin Chen clearly froze at Xu Fei's words. He'd known the Bronze Coffin was a magical artifact and was probably worth a lot, but thirty million was still beyond what he'd expected.

In just a few days, Lin Chen's cash on hand had already come close to a hundred million. In the past, he wouldn't even have dared to dream of having that much.

But money no longer mattered that much to Lin Chen. A hundred million in cash wasn't even as good as a single enhancement. If he could trade money for an enhancement, he'd choose the enhancement without hesitation.

Strength was the foundation of a cultivator!

After hanging up, Lin Chen called a ride. While waiting, he received a notification that the money had arrived in his bank account. On his way to the 4S Shop, he quickly searched for cars that suited him. He didn't have high standards; the most important thing was that it could take a beating!

After all, Lin Chen would probably be traveling all over. He might need to drive through the city, the suburbs, or even the mountains. The engine couldn't be too weak; otherwise, if someone got the jump on him, no car would make up for it.

After narrowing down his options, Lin Chen quickly settled on the Big G. It met his requirements in every way, and best of all, it was affordable.

At a little over two million, it really wasn't expensive by Lin Chen's standards now!

A short while later, Lin Chen arrived at the 4S Shop. A tall, poised woman came over to greet him. "Hello, sir. How can I help you?"

"I want to buy a Big G!" Lin Chen got straight to the point.

"Certainly, sir. This way, please. We have one on display." The beautiful saleswoman led Lin Chen toward the Big G display model, introducing it to him as they walked.

The real thing was different from the pictures; it looked much more beautiful and imposing. Its sharply defined contours made Lin Chen like it even more. After looking over the interior, he'd already made up his mind.

"This model uses..." The saleswoman was still doing her best to explain the car.

Lin Chen looked at the saleswoman in front of him and cut straight to the point. "Looks good. I'll take it. Do you have one in stock?"

"Ah~"

The saleswoman froze at his words, then asked uncertainly, "Sir, you mean you want to buy it?"

"Yes. Do you have one in stock?" Lin Chen nodded.

From the moment Lin Chen had walked into the shop, less than five minutes had passed. He'd just walked around the car twice and looked at the interior, and now he was buying it? Even buying cabbage at a market wasn't that casual.

"We do have one in stock. A previous customer ordered it but gave up because of financial issues. That car has quite a few optional features, so the price..." The saleswoman hesitated slightly.

"Price isn't an issue. Let's sign the contract." Lin Chen spoke calmly.

"Of course!"

The saleswoman came to her senses, beaming with delight as she hurriedly asked someone to prepare the contract. Meanwhile, she continued showing Lin Chen around the display model and answering his questions.

A few minutes later, the contract was ready. Lin Chen signed it and paid by card, but before he could actually drive the car on the road, he still needed insurance and license plates.

Fortunately, the shop worked directly with the vehicle administration office. Whether he was getting plates or buying insurance, everything could be handled quickly. It was part of the service they offered their customers.

After all, plenty of car owners wanted to pick up their cars on the spot and drive them away!

Even with the shop's services, Lin Chen still had to wait there for more than three hours before the plates were ready and his insurance took effect. Only then could he actually drive the car on the road.

After all the paperwork was done, Li Lin looked at Lin Chen. "Lin, my junior, I owe it to you that I earned so much commission. How about we have dinner together tonight? Let me thank you."

Li Lin was the beautiful saleswoman. As it turned out, she was also a student at Qingzhou University, one year above Lin Chen. She'd graduated last year.

Lin Chen checked the time. It was almost dinnertime, so he nodded. "Sure!"

A few minutes later, Li Lin came over in a light blue dress. Compared to her earlier businesslike appearance, the change of clothes gave her a quieter, more gentle air.

The two went to a nearby restaurant. It wasn't particularly upscale, but the food was pretty good.

"Senior Sister Li, what made you decide to work at a 4S Shop?" During their casual conversation, Lin Chen asked the question that had been on his mind. Sales wasn't a difficult field to get into, but with Li Lin's advanced education, there was no need for her to choose that line of work.

"Junior Lin, not everyone was born with the world at their feet like you." Li Lin gave a bitter smile, then continued, "I'm from the countryside. My family can't offer me much help, so just finishing school was an accomplishment. I only want to earn more after graduation and bring my parents here."

Lin Chen nodded. Li Lin was pretty, even if she wasn't quite at the campus beauty level; she was at least fresh-faced and attractive. With her advanced education, using sales to earn money quickly made perfect sense.

"Actually, I wasn't born with the world at my feet either. My parents passed away a long time ago," Lin Chen said calmly.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know..." Li Lin looked at Lin Chen apologetically.

"It's fine. It's been so many years; I've long since gotten used to being on my own."

Lin Chen shook his head with a smile. After dinner, he offered to take Li Lin home. She rented a place in an urban village, where the rent was cheap, though the neighborhood was a little rough.
