Chapter 805
Raising the Price
Mu Yu tugged the corner of his lips up slightly. Now that I know the market price, I dont want to get the short end of the stick. As I said, Im going to sell you my goods, and you can pay me at a later date. Since youre going to pay me at a later date, I have a sound reason to demand more. For that reason, Ive decided to sell to you for 19.5 million, meaning you owe me 19.5 million.
H-how can you suddenly raise your price, Master Yu? I shared industry information with me because I trusted you.
Im just being me. Whether you want to accept the transaction or not is on you. 19.5 million is my demand.
Xuan Zhengtang pulled his limbs in as he sat languidly on the ground as despair squeezed oxygen out of his lungs. He did not realise Mu Yu changed his demands to ensure that the bullying elder would not pocket as much. There was an express solution that would save both of them the trouble, though ending the elder.
Master Yu, why have you suddenly decided to change your mind?
What I want to know is if you accept this transaction or not, replied Mu Yu, refusing to answer the question for he deemed it impossible to get through to straight-laced Xuan Zhengtang.
In the grand scheme of things, it was more efficient for Mu Yu to buy them the Taishi purple sky pill first, and then they could pay it back later.
I I accept, quavered Xuan Zhengtang. But you must promise not to raise the price again. Otherwise, there is nothing I can do.
Mu Yu grinned. Sure, but
But?
Once youre done taking the fiend beasts apart, I can lend you money to buy a Taishi purple sky pill under your name. Youll have to pay back the loan, though.
I may take a big loan from you, so it may take me years to repay.
Take your time.
Xuan Sitong, who was eavesdropping outside, followed Mu Yu when he exited and hesitantly queried, Master Yu, you
You heard us? inquired Mu Yu, sitting down under a willow tree outside the courtyard, while Xiaoshuai yawned at the table.
Yes
Ill buy you a Taishi sky purple pill so that your first elder cant force your father against his will. I dont like your leeching elder.
My father taught me to repay favours, so I will repay this favour. If I can be of any use to you, please say the word.
You sound like you want to offer him your body, Xiaoshuai commented.
Ah? N-no, that is not what I meant! stuttered Xuan Sitong, speaking in a higher pitch voice.
Mu Yu flicked Xiaoshuais head. Do you even know what that means?
I do. Ximen Buxings book mentioned
Im going to seriously contemplate killing Ximen Buxing.
Miss Xuan keeps stealing glances at you, though. You only do that if you like someone, right? Xiaoshuai pointed out.
No, I was just grateful and curious.
I already have a sister-in-law, Xiaoshuai added innocently. I promised her to take good care of him and not let him be unfaithful.
Xiaoshuai, I reckon I should sell you off to save myself some trouble, huh?
Dont worry, Xiaoshuai, I dont have a crush on your brother. Im just grateful, understand?
Xiaoshuai leaned in and whispered, You should give up on my brother. Hes not as handsome as me and is taken. Im single, on the other had. Plus, Im a chef. I can conquer your heart and your belly.
Xiaoshuai, the next time I catch you reading Ximen Buxings books, Ill ask Yujiang to set you up with Momo. Mu Yu picked Xiaoshuai up to wipe the grease on the latters mouth. Also, learn to eat with manners before you talk about conquering peoples belly!
Momo again? Please no.
Who is Momo? questioned Xuan Sitong.
A girl hes devoted himself to, Mu Yu answered.
She must be really cute if Xiaoshuai is this cute, Xuan Sitong opined, caressing Xiaoshuais head.
Oh, she is, Mu Yu responded.
I hear nothing. I hear nothing, Xiaoshuai chanted, starting to eat another drumstick.
Mu Yu then said to Xuan Sitong, who was dimpling. You dont need to do anything for me; just keep this plan a secret from your father for now.
Why are you going so far for us when we are poor and unable to offer you anything?
Why? Mu Yu smiled to himself. Probably because I think youre worthy of my help.
***
One-Eyed Snake died? repeated Yi Feiying, slouching in a chair made from a swordtooth tigers fang and cushioned with tiger fur that was placed in a private room for him at Beast-Taming Hall.
Yue Wenyang breathed in the fragrance of the level six fiend beasts fragrant swallows hearts from the cauldron on the table for its calming effect. Yes, that is what his men reported. According to them, the young man who clashed with you yesterday snapped his neck when they went to Mystic Beast Store yesterday.
Yi Feiying fiddled with two transparent eyes from a level six swirling eyes purple crystal beast, which were renowned for being solid, whilst running his eyes over the flying bird artworks and fiend beast heads decorating the walls.
Thats a surprise. Doesnt that mean that guy is a Body Synthesis Realm cultivator?
It would seem so, replied Yue Wenyang, somewhat engrossed in the soothing fragrance from the hundreds of thumb-sized hearts of swift, fist-sized fragrant swallows coming from the cauldron.
Have you identified him yet? Yi Feiying asked, shifting his gaze down to the gleaming eyes that could discharge spiritual qi.
Not yet. I thought he must have been a prized disciple of one of the eight great sects judging from his attitude, but I cannot find any corresponding information.
It doesnt matter what his backstory is. Anybody who crosses me has to pay.
Perhaps it should not be surprising if we think about how many dark horses suddenly gained fame in the last year thanks to Ultimate Immortals Rankings. Nonetheless, I will find out who he is.
Yi Feiying released his hold on the eyes, letting them levitate. The proprietor of Mystic Beast Store is with him, right?
Yes.
Why did he want to do sell his goods to us when Mystic Beast Store also buys fiend beasts?
From what we know, Mystic Beast Store only purchases level three and four fiend beasts. Since he wanted to sell a level seven fiend beast, maybe he had no choice but to come to us to get his moneys worth.
Find out which inns, blacksmiths and pill stores they are selling their fiend beast parts to. If hes at Mystic Beast Store, he might be asking them to take apart his level seven fiend beast. If Mystic Beast Store wants to compete, Ill put them out of business.
Are you implying you want to stop people from buying their goods, Young Master Yi?
If they cant sell the parts, theyll be left with nothing but rotten parts. I want them bankrupt. Then, Ill show him who runs this place. This is his comeuppance for challenging me. Yi Feyiying separated the two eyes hovering in the air and then smashed them together. Hahaha.
