The Xuan Mao said angrily, "Just you wait, I'll get my revenge sooner or later!"
Xie Feng shrugged. "Then you'd better work hard. Within three years, your cultivation must become incredibly strong! If it's not incredibly strong enough, you'll never catch up to me! Oh, and read more books to broaden your knowledge!"
"Fine, you wait!"
The Xuan Mao stomped its foot and ran away angrily.
She tore open Dao Emptiness rift, and before stepping into it, she suddenly stopped and looked back with mixed feelings.
Xie Feng remained expressionless. She turned her head and vanished into thin air.
The Dust Clan chose you, which means they are sending you to your death.
Even though you're annoying, you're an innocent person. Why throw your life away needlessly?
Fine, admit defeat! And I, the Holy Maiden, will let you go! I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately, to be honest!
These were the words Xuan Mao said before the duel.
Some people die because of their stance or interests. Others die simply because they deserve to die. Most of those who deserve to die have many flaws: a foul mouth, impulsive personality, cruelty, and a bloodthirstiness...
Although the Xuan Mao is arrogant, she has a valuable principle—"do not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
She adheres to and practices this philosophy.
Such a person, when dead, is just an ordinary soul, but while alive, can influence many more people.
And one more thing, and the most important thing, is that she can't beat Xie Feng!
Let alone three years, even if you gave her thirty years, three hundred years, or three thousand years, it wouldn't work!
That's the difference between a genius and a monster!
No sooner had the Xuan Mao left than a beautiful figure appeared from afar.
She wore a plain dress, without any fancy accessories, and her hair was neatly combed. Her simple and understated style was a stark contrast to her former radiant appearance.
But it must be said that even with such a simple style, she is still very beautiful, possessing a natural beauty that comes without makeup.
Xie Feng was no stranger to this person. Back in Xuan City, he had pawned two Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng at Treasure Mirror Workshop, and this woman was the owner of the shop Luo Ling!
He frowned. One left, another arrived; he had no idea he was so popular...
"Mr. Xie, it's nice to see you again."
Luo Ling's eyes were calm, and she smiled slightly when she saw him.
Xie Feng said, "You... you've changed so much..."
Back then, Luo Ling was incredibly charming, with her long, white legs swaying gracefully in her gauze skirt. But in just over a month, her style of dress had become more conservative, and she had become much more dignified and composed.
Luo Ling smiled faintly, "You're the one who made me change. I listened to what you said back then, so I made the change. You're right, I have the ability to make Treasure Mirror Workshop better through legitimate means, and I should do it. Evil Dao won't last. I've been running Treasure Mirror Workshop honestly as you said. I originally thought that when I stopped using my beauty, Treasure Mirror Workshop would plummet, but... while I did anger some people and they stopped patronizing it, slowly, Treasure Mirror Workshop attracted more people because of its clean and honest operations. Mr. Xie, I want to thank you!"
Luo Ling bowed to Xie Feng.
Ninety degrees!
"I never intended to be your savior, so there's no need for you to come all this way to thank me. Don't you think you've wasted my time rambling on and on?"
Xie Feng sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.
That's right, he's definitely a straight man.
"This is just one reason I came to see you," Luo Ling looked up, asking hesitantly, "Are you... impatient?"
Xie Feng: "If I said I was impatient, would you have left after making the special trip from Xuan City to the border between the Dust Clan and the Nether Clan?"
Luo Ling slowly shook her head.
Xie Feng shrugged. "That settles it then! Just say what you have to say! I'll only give you three minutes."
Luo Ling's eyes brightened slightly. She quickened her pace and said, "A distinguished guest at Treasure Mirror Workshop has taken the two Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng you pawned. He still needs them, so I'd like to ask Mr. Xie if you have any left in stock!"
Xie Feng raised an eyebrow.
She came here because of the Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng.
Do you have any stock?
have!
Absolutely!
Who would turn down a sucker... I mean, money?!
Xie Feng nodded. "How many do you want?"
Three!
" The Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng is used to enhance potential. The two ginsengs last time weren't enough, and now he needs three more. How useless must this person be..."
"That's a guest's privacy, so I didn't ask any further questions."
"I have the item; it's up to you to offer a price. If it satisfies me, then the transaction will be complete."
"How about 90 million per bottle, based on the price from last time?" Luo Ling asked somewhat nervously.
"We're practically acquaintances, and you're asking for 90 million? That's not fair..." Xie Feng frowned.
"So?"
Luo Ling's eyes widened suddenly. This meant a price reduction?!
Her heart was pounding.
Seeing her touched expression, Xie Feng quickly shook his head, "Don't misunderstand, what I mean is, you're being unfair! So much time has passed, and prices have been rising every moment. Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng isn't a necessity; if the price doesn't go up, how will I make money? One ginseng should be worth one hundred million Dao Crystal!"
Luo Ling: "..."
She knew there was no such thing as a free lunch...
She frowned slightly, and said with some difficulty, "This price is too high. Treasure Mirror Workshop a small business, we really can't afford it."
Xie Feng said, "Then there's nothing we can do. By the way, you can ask your esteemed guest to pay, and you can make a commission from it!"
"This person is not someone I can afford to offend. Whenever he asks, it's always my Treasure Mirror Workshop that makes the offerings; we've never given him a single penny!"
Luo Ling smiled wryly.
well.
She sighed silently to herself.
Treasure Mirror Workshop only has some strength within the Dust Clan; in the Dao Realm, it's far too mediocre.
She wasn't a top-tier pawnshop like Jade Qilin Workshop; her Treasure Mirror Workshop was just a small business surviving in the cracks...
Throughout history, the strong have always been right, and the weak have always suffered.
After careful consideration, Luo Ling said, "I'll only buy one Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng, 93 million, is that alright?"
Xie Feng shook his head.
Luo Ling's eyes gradually dimmed. She pursed her lips, struggling with an intense internal conflict.
If they don't get the Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng, that tyrannical guy will probably destroy the Treasure Mirror Workshop...
Should we mortgage this workshop...?
She was in a state of utter confusion.
Xie Feng raised his eyes and smiled, "How about this, ninety-five million?"
Luo Ling looked surprised, and involuntarily spoke the truth, "I don't believe you could be so kind..."
Realizing what she had said, she hurriedly covered her mouth and bowed repeatedly to Xie Feng, "I'm so sorry, I couldn't control myself! I... I was just talking nonsense! Don't take it seriously... haha..."
She gave an awkward laugh twice.
She was afraid that Xie Feng would get angry and stop giving her the goods.
"You're right. Of course, I wouldn't be so kind. I need some supplies. If you can provide them, the matter of the Heavenly Mortal Jade Ginseng will be much easier to discuss!" Xie Feng smiled calmly.
"What supplies?" Luo Ling asked, bewildered.
"Prepare enough healing medicine, food, defensive armor, cloth, and space wagons for at least 300,000 people, and deliver them to Flame Island within one hour!!"
Xie Feng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
