Lu Qingshan froze on the spot at the sight of his excitement.
"Had... had I been too hasty?"
He suddenly realized that this brat had been bargaining with him from start to finish, steadily breaking through his limits, deliberately angering him and throwing him off his rhythm.
That had left him with no sense of proportion when naming his price.
He had originally intended to copy that bandit's tricks to bargain with the brat, only for the brat to end up grabbing him by the head and hacking away instead.
Half the duck already in his grasp had actually been torn away!
At that thought, Lu Qingshan felt a mouthful of blood lodged in his chest, unable to go up or down. He nearly suffered internal injuries on the spot from holding it in.
But on second thought, at least he had kept a Heaven-Tier Magical Artifact.
Compared with the brat's opening demand of a hundred million and a Heaven-Tier Magical Artifact, taking the whole platter clean away, this seemed... not entirely unacceptable.
To shut the brat up as quickly as possible, Lu Qingshan could only reluctantly pull the Storage Ring he had barely warmed from his robes and slap it into Chun Xiaobai's hand.
Chun Xiaobai immediately probed it with his divine sense. Spirit stones were piled inside like mountains, almost spilling out, and he could not help drawing a sharp breath.
"I'm rich!"
"Now this is what you fucking call getting rich!"
He immediately bowed deeply, his face overflowing with tearful gratitude.
"Thank you for nurturing me, Elder Lu!"
The sight of Chun Xiaobai's excitement only made Lu Qingshan feel even more disgruntled.
Fortunately, the Heaven-Tier Magical Artifact was worth quite a lot too. It was just difficult to sell, so he had not lost out too badly.
