5 million? This figure surprised everyone. The guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan were totally dumbfounded and couldn’t believe what they had heard. They didn’t expect this dog would be so greedy. It was impossible to find 5 million Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines even if the Divine Farmer Clan was turned upside down!
Since the Divine Farmer Clan had discovered that they could plant the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, the history of this elixir was only tens of thousands of years old. Numerous resources had to be put into the cultivation of each Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vine because the survival ratio of this elixir was very low. Up until now, the storage numbers of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines in the entire Divine Farmer Clan were only about 5,000, and it wasn’t used carelessly. Now, these guardians had taken out 200 newly harvested Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to be transported to the Divine Farmer Clans. And it was the largest quantity they could offer now. For all the rest of the people in this area, Buttface, who had asked for 5 million, was simply making a commotion. Obviously, he didn’t want to solve this issue at all.
At the same time, Xu Que was quarreling with Buttface by sending secret messages to him. “Buttface, are you insane? Why the hell did you ask for 5 million? I was trying to suggest that you could ask for 500, or even 5,000. I didn’t expect that you would be crazy enough to ask for 5 million!”
“F*ck! You are insane! Just now, when I asked for 200 from them, you said the quantity was too low, right? Now, 5 million is too much for you! You are definitely looking for every opportunity to curse me!”
“Holy sh*t! How dare you answer me back?”
“I am merely stating the facts and reasons!”
“Bullsh*t! Just change the quantity to 5,000 now!”
“F*ck! You asked for 500 a moment ago!”
“Holy sh*t! You need a good spanking! Do you believe I can stand up and stomp you into the ground now?”
“F*ck! Little brat, don’t go too far! You can’t bully me like this!”
“Okay! I will stand up and beat you up now!”
“Wait! I will change it to 5,000!”
This simple, rude communication between a man and a dog ended when Buttface yielded. Now that everyone was shocked, Buttface stood up and said proudly as he waved his paws again, “You really need to compensate us with 5 million Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. However, members of the Exploding Heavens Faction are always kindhearted and magnanimous. We have been impressed by the Divine Farmer Clan’s willingness to correct its mistakes. So we will offer you a discount. We can accept 5,000 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines!”
“5,000 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines?” The guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan’s lips twitched nervously because they had no right to make decisions about quantities like this. 200 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines were the largest quantity they could offer. They believed their clan would consider this price well spent not to offend someone who might be a Celestial King. After all, a lot of evidence indicated that this old man was most likely a Celestial King. The Divine Farmer Clan was not able to afford to offend someone like him.
However, it was difficult for them to offer 5,000 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines unless they were absolutely sure that this “Elder Xu” was really a Celestial King! The guardians didn’t dare to make a decision on behalf of their clan to compensate Xu Que with 5,000 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines without proof.
“Eh, Elder Xu, this is really an important decision for us to make. Moreover, we don’t have that many Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines with us. Is it okay if we go back to our clan and discuss it with our Elders…?” a guardian asked perplexedly.
“Sure! Of course!” Xu Que replied immediately. Then he jumped up, full of energy and vibrancy. Now nobody believed that he had been wounded. Actually, all the people in this place already knew that he was not wounded at all. However, when Xu Que stood up shamelessly, the guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan were totally embarrassed because it was a humiliation for them. “Please be more professional! Could you wait to stand up when we leave this place? Now, we are so embarrassed!” This was going through all the guardians’ minds.
“Eh…thank you, Elder Xu! We will leave now and farewell!” The guardians pretended that they didn’t see Xu Que’s shameless actions. They said good-bye to Xu Que, bowing to him. The rest of the apprentices of the Divine Farmer Clan also left, following the guardians disappointedly. They had come here with overweening arrogance, but then they had left in dismay. The entire process was so dramatic. “Strength is really a good thing!” These words were echoing in the minds of all the people from the Divine Farmer Clan and the Jade Lake at this moment. However, for Buttface and Duan Jiude, deception and impudence were even better.
“D*mn! We only obtained 200 weeds! What a big loss!” Buttface said regretfully when the people of the Divine Farmer Clan had left.
Hearing that, Xu Que rolled his eyes. He had figured out that 200 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines were the largest quantity the guardians could offer. It was meaningless to push them further because that was all they had at the moment. If the guardians who had been pushed into a corner chose to do something desperate, Xu Que would not have been able to wind this matter up so easily. Xu Que was very confident about his strength now. However, he believed he was not powerful enough to confront seven to eight guardians at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage at the same time since it was already quite difficult for him to defeat even one of them! The strength of a cultivator at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage could never be underestimated!
“Little villain, you never change! I didn’t expect you would dare to fool them in such a situation!” At this time, Liu Jingning walked up and stared at Xu Que snappily. She was exquisitely dainty and ravishingly beautiful!
Xu Que replied with a smile. Then he put his arm around Liu Jingning’s waist subconsciously. Soon, he stopped his hand because he realized countless people were staring at him curiously at this time. Apparently, Liu Jingning’s careless words had been heard by all the apprentices of the Jade Lake in this area. Now, dozens of female apprentices of the Jade Lake were looking at Xu Que in surprise. Bai Cailing, who was also shocked by what she had just seen, also looked curious.
“Eh…” Xu Que was also stunned with embarrassment. It seems my disguise will be uncovered. Although he didn’t really care if his identity was exposed now, he would still feel embarrassed when his identity was exposed in front of so many people! However, to his surprise, people from the Jade Lake and Bai Cailing didn’t get angry at all. They just looked at Xu Que and Liu Jingning curiously. When Xu Que looked at them, they avoided eye contact with him from embarrassment. Xu Que was surprised by their reactions and he thought to himself. “What’s going on? Why are they staying calm when they realize they have been fooled by me? Does it mean they knew my identity from the very beginning?”
“Ahem, nobody is allowed to disclose what you saw today, understand?” Bai Cailing gave her order loudly as she looked at all the apprentices of the Jade Lake, also making sure that Xu Que could also hear. Then she looked at Xu Que and gave him a look, as if saying, “Please don’t worry!”
Xu Que was even more confused, and he thought, “What does she mean?” He wasn’t worried about maintaining his secrecy. So he asked Bai Cailing a question, sending her a silent message, “Holy Virgin, what do you mean?” Hearing that, Bai Cailing was stunned a bit. She replied immediately, “Elder Xu, please don’t worry. We know what we can say and what we can’t say! You can count on us!”
“What? It’s nothing! And it is okay if you tell it to others!” Xu Que said with puzzlement. Bai Cailing’s eyes got wide, and she couldn’t believe what she had heard. When Jiang Hongyan came to the Jade Lake together with Buttface and Duan Jiude, Liu Jingning was also with them. They stayed in the Jade Lake for a while. When Buttface called Jiang Hongyan the “Faction Leader’s first wife” and Liu Jingning the “Faction Leader’s second wife”, all the people from the Jade Lake knew Liu Jingning and Jiang Hongyan were Xu Que’s women. Now, they had discovered that Liu Jingning, who was the “Faction Leader’s second wife”, was also intimate with the Faction Leader’s father! She even called him “little villain” fondly! Also, everyone realized something was wrong when they saw the intimacy in her eyes! This was so unbelievable!
“Eh…Elder Xu, are you kidding me? How could we…tell it to others?” Bai Cailing asked, as she looked at Xu Que with an embarrassed smile.
“Why not? I have nothing to be ashamed of that needs to remain secret!” Xu Que said seriously. Hearing that, Bai Cailing was speechless. She sent a thumbs up to this old man in her mind. “You are so domineering…no, you are so coquettish!”
