Gute carefully read through the contents of the book again, then took a deep breath.

"Hehe, I only obtained it by chance." Xiao Tianci smiled faintly, then looked at Gute, whose gaze had never left the small jade bottle, and said softly, "Well, Master Gute, are you satisfied with what I brought out?"

The essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon is such a precious thing that Xiao Tianci naturally couldn't obtain it with his own strength.

This kind of thing cannot be obtained by plundering any power.

Xiao Tianci obtained it through yesterday's system lottery.

For Xiao Tianci, the only use of the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon was to enhance his physical strength.

Xiao Tianci extracted a full five drops of the essence blood from the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon.

When he took the first drop yesterday, he felt that the essence of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon had only a limited effect on his physical body.

After all, when he first obtained the system, his physical strength had already been greatly enhanced by it, and later he also received various rare and precious materials and cultivation techniques.

His physical strength has reached an extremely high level.

Therefore, the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon was not that important to Xiao Tianci.

But when he took the second and third drops, the essence blood could no longer enhance him.

Therefore, there were two drops left. He used one of them to exchange for the Immortal-Slaying Underworld Flower and the Yin-Yang Immortal Spring.

After hearing Xiao Tianci's words, Gute also looked at Xiao Tianci.

Although he desperately wanted to force himself to appear uninterested in the essence of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon's blood.

However, as soon as the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon was taken out, he completely lost control.

Now it's impossible to fake it even if I wanted to.

"Young man, I admit I misjudged you," Gute said. "Speaking of which, I didn't even know your name."

" Xiao Tianci," Xiao Tianci said with a smile.

Seeing Gute's expression, he completely understood that the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon that he had taken out had completely controlled Gute.

"Well, Brother Xiao, since you're looking for the Immortal-Slaying Underworld Flower and the Yin-Yang Immortal Spring, and you already know how rare they are, I don't need to say anything more."

Gute took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke.

"Yes, I understand that. If these two things weren't rare, why would I have taken out the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon?" Xiao Tianci smiled slightly and nodded.

After all, if it were just a Immortal-Slaying Underworld Flower, its value would definitely not be as high as the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon. Even with the addition of a Yin-Yang Immortal Spring, it still wouldn't compare to the essence blood.

If Xiao Tianci hadn't genuinely had no need for the essence and blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon, he wouldn't have suffered this loss.

But Gute's words now seem to treat him like a child, actually trying to lower the price.

"Well, let me put it this way. The Immortal-Slaying Underworld Flower and the Yin-Yang Immortal Spring are both said to have the power to revive the dead and heal the flesh and bones. Therefore, their effects are naturally quite extensive. However, the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon mainly only strengthens the human body. So, its effects are definitely not as extensive as these two rare and precious treasures."

Gute for a moment before slowly speaking.

Gute's words made Xiao Tianci laugh.

This Gute really knows how to spout nonsense.

He shook his head, then slowly reached out and took the jade bottle back from Gute's hand.

"Master Gute, do you think I wouldn't understand the value of this Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon's essence blood? You're treating me like a fool. You and I both know how much this Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon's essence blood can permanently enhance a person's combat power. Not to mention those who mainly cultivate their physical body, even those with weak physical strength crave this kind of thing."

If I were to release this information now, there would be countless people in the entire Jia Ma Empire, even those willing to go bankrupt, all vying for it. If you truly believe its value is insufficient, then let's call it a day. I imagine there will be a long line of people interested in this essence blood."

"Furthermore, your denigration of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon is merely an attempt to drive down the price. Therefore, Master Gute, your sincerity is insufficient, and this deal is indeed impossible to complete."

Xiao Tianci shook his head, seemingly with some regret, but inwardly he was sneering.

If what he offered wasn't actually that valuable, then it was acceptable for Gute to try and lower the price.

But what he's taking out now is a rare essence of blood, one that appears only once in a thousand years.

It should be noted that the number of Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon is extremely rare, and their essence blood is even more special. If the essence blood is forcibly extracted without the permission of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon itself, it will dissipate its energy in a very short time and turn into ordinary blood.

Therefore, under such conditions, it is no exaggeration to say that the essence of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon is extremely rare, occurring only once every thousand years.

"Huh?" Looking at Xiao Tianci, who had suddenly changed his mind and seemed to be doing it without any hesitation, Gute's face showed a look of surprise.

Then, he slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly. "No way!"

He never expected that after a lifetime of being a rogue, he would encounter a junior who didn't play by the rules, who flipped the table without even exchanging a word.

He actually wanted to do what Xiao Tianci did and just flip the table.

After all, everyone has a temper, right?

But alas, those words just wouldn't come out.

The essence blood of this Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon is extremely rare; it's likely that no one in the entire Dou Qi Continent possesses it.

He knew very well that if he missed this opportunity, he might never be able to obtain it in his entire life.

"Why not? Master Gute, didn't you just say that the essence blood of the Demon-Subduing Golden Dragon isn't widely applicable?" Xiao Tianci wasn't surprised at all by Gute's huge reaction.

After all, for someone who values rare and precious materials as much as life itself, they would never miss out on something so rare, no matter the cost!

After a pause, Xiao Tianci continued, "I've thought about it carefully just now, and Master Gute, what you said makes sense. Something with such a small audience is indeed not very valuable. So, I was just being delusional. It's understandable that Master Gute doesn't think much of it. Let's just forget about this deal; I won't humiliate myself further."

After saying this, Xiao Tianci gently held the jade bottle in his hand and put it back into his Storage Ring.

Then, he turned around, intending to leave, and judging from Xiao Tianci's steps, he walked quite firmly, without the slightest hesitation.
