"Junior Brother Xie, Junior Brother Liu came with a heart full of sincerity."
"We're all fellow disciples. Why not help him out?"
Shortly after Liu Yu finished speaking, Yan Hongyu spoke up, her words making her support for him unmistakable.
Listening to the two sing in harmony, a glimmer of understanding flashed through Xie Junjie's eyes. So Junior Brother Liu had come for the Huang Household's alchemy inheritance.
He was not an alchemist, nor did he intend to learn alchemy. Aside from exchanging it for resources, the inheritance was of no use to him.
Doing the two of them a favor wouldn't hurt. But as for the price... hehe.
With that thought, Xie Junjie did not rush to speak. Instead, he put on a thoughtful expression, looking as though he was struggling with a difficult decision.
Making a copy would be fine, but they would have to pay more. He had already decided to raise the price on the spot.
As for their supposed bonds as fellow disciples?
Those words were pleasant enough to hear. Before profit, everything else had to give way.
Xie Junjie was long past the age of sentiment and hot-blooded passion. He understood deeply how important resources were on the path of cultivation. Otherwise, he would not have put so much effort into hunting down the Huang Household's Pill Hall elder. He had coveted the elder's wealth, and had even suffered some injuries before bringing him down.
Affection and righteousness were all empty words. Only tangible benefits were real.
Seeing Liu Yu take out spirit stones as soon as he arrived, he knew Liu Yu sincerely wanted to make a trade. Otherwise, if Liu Yu had tried peddling empty sentiments, he would have lifted his teacup to see him out long ago, rather than sitting down
