An Lin immediately gave Xiaolan a thumbs up. “Nice one, Xiaolan!”
All ten immortal-rank heavenly peaches had been found.
There were only several thousand spirit fruits and tens of thousands of precious fruits left to be found.
The representatives who hadn’t yet picked any fruits all milled around with dejected expressions as they tried to pick some other fruits.
There were no more immortal-rank heavenly peaches, but at least there were spirit fruits left that could soothe their pain.
There were still a few hundred representatives that had yet to choose, but the majority of them had already chosen.
An Lin helped the remaining Four Nine Immortal Sect members choose spirit fruits, all of which were high-rank spirit fruits with no exception.
After that, his job was done.
An Lin looked at all of the other representatives laboriously choosing their fruits, and a thought suddenly flashed into his mind.
In the next instant, An Lin’s voice reverberated throughout the entire Myriad Fruit Orchard.
“Attention, all fellow cultivators. I would like to offer you a deal that you absolutely cannot afford to miss out on! I can help you choose your fruits for ten thousand spirit stones each, all of which will be high-rank spirit fruits with no exceptions! If I don’t deliver on what I promise, I’ll pay a penalty fee of ten high-rank spirit fruits!”
Everyone fell silent at once, and they all turned to stare at An Lin with astonishment etched on their faces.
An Lin continued, “Everyone knows who I am, and everyone has seen the feats I have performed. I can guarantee the quality of my service!”
The Four Nine Immortal Sect members: “…”
All of the other representatives: “…”
A normal spirit fruit was usually worth over a hundred thousand spirit stones, so this really wasn’t a bad deal if he really could deliver on what he promised.
Aside from the dozen Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures present, who could guarantee that they would be able to pick a high-rank spirit fruit without fail? Most of the people here had tears flowing down their faces with precious fruits sitting in their hands.
But now, An Lin was offering his fruit-picking services to everyone!
It had to be said that many of the mighty figures present were tempted.
“Me me me… Help me, An Lin!” Xiang Qingya of the Dark Phoenix Imperial Family raised her hand first with excitement on her face.
An Lin was looking for someone to take the first leap, and Xiang Qingya immediately stepped forward. This was like someone handing him a pillow just when he was feeling sleepy, and he turned toward Xiang Qingya with a grateful expression.
Xiang Qingya handed over the money, and An Lin casually scanned his eyes across one of the nearby trees. “Pick that one!”
Xiang Qingya immediately rushed over and picked the translucent white fruit An Lin had directed her to.
In that instant, the white fruit slowly began to transform into a bluish-white color, and powerful energy fluctuations emanated from it.
“It’s a spirit fruit! It really is a spirit fruit!”
“And it’s definitely a high-rank spirit fruit!”
“What are we waiting for? Hurry up and line up!”
Many representatives immediately rushed toward An Lin.
The whole scene descended into turmoil.
“Alright, guys, let’s form a single line here!” An Lin spoke with a joyful smile.
Aside from the mighty figures who were confident in their own skills or were too proud to buy help from others, almost half of the representatives who hadn’t yet chosen fruits gathered before An Lin.
This was a win-win situation, and everyone wanted to take part in it!
Thus, all of the representatives were led by An Lin around the orchard, and all of them obtained high-rank spirit fruits. An Lin’s wallet was bulging and all of the representatives had gotten their spirit fruits, so everyone was happy.
All of the Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures were extremely envious of what An Lin was doing. They really wanted to tell everyone that they were capable of identifying spirit fruits too!
However, all of them refrained from doing so. Firstly, they couldn’t identify the fruits as quickly as An Lin did, and secondly, they didn’t have An Lin’s extensive resume of identifying five immortal-rank heavenly peaches and countless spirit fruits. He was also doing so with completely unerring accuracy. Was this something they could compete with?
All of these Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures had self-awareness.
They knew that they were unable to compete with An Lin in this aspect…
In the air above the Myriad Fruit Orchard.
All of the five Heavenly Court emperors were shocked beyond belief at the sight of what An Lin was doing.
“I really want to have a look at what An Lin’s brain is made from. I feel like it’s just a pile of spirit stones in that cranium of his.” Emperor Ziwei stared at An Lin with incredulity.
The Celestial Thearch looked on with gritted teeth, and his eyes threatened to bulge out of their sockets. “He’s profiting from this, but it’s at our expense! We’re going to lose over a hundred spirit fruits because of him!”
“Mr. An Lin’s money-making tactics really are quite underhanded. He’s making a profit, but he’s also incurring a massive loss for the Heavenly Court…” Emperor Tian Huang was also speaking through gritted teeth.
“Can we stop him? My heart is throbbing!” Emperor Chang Sheng asked.
Emperor Qing Hua stroked his snowy-white beard with a smile. “There are no rules prohibiting An Lin from doing this, so we can’t really stop him.”
The Celestial Thearch massaged his brows. “I’m developing a massive headache!”
Lin Junjun shot a glance at the five emperors before turning her eyes upon the fruit-picking An Lin, and she couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “This b*stard sure has a way of screwing people over…”
She recalled back to all those times An Lin had extorted profits from her with his Purple Star information. She was still feeling quite angry about it even now, but she couldn’t help but chuckle at the memory of it.
Time passed by slowly.
An Lin was able to help two hundred and sixty-four representatives successfully obtain spirit fruits with a hundred percent success rate, thereby delivering on his promise to perfection.
All of the representatives were both stunned by An Lin’s ability, as well as grateful toward him for his help. After all, this was a win-win situation.
Oh wait, it was actually a win-win-loss situation.
The Heavenly Court had incurred losses at their expense…
During this process, all of the other representatives also developed a profound respect and acknowledgment for the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
Time was up.
Everyone was enshrouded by spatial power and returned to the Heavenly Palace.
An Lin now had an extra two million six hundred thousand spirit stones in his storage ring, taking his net worth to one hundred and ninety million six hundred thousand spirit stones! He truly was a cultivating tycoon!
The Celestial Thearch took the stage again with a forced smile on his face. “The Four Nine Immortal Sect is the big winner of this discerning-eye activity. I’ll now invite Sect Leader An Lin onto the stage to deliver an address.”
An Lin faltered slightly upon hearing this. He had to deliver another address?
All of the Four Nine Immortal Sect members erupted into raucous cheers and pushed An Lin to his feet.
Many of the other sect representatives that had cooperated with An Lin also burst into applause to support An Lin.
An Lin stood up and cleared his throat. “Our Four Nine Immortal Sect is a sect that champions peaceful development. We try to cater to others in everything that we do….”
What was this recycled speech?
Many of the powerful beings and mighty figures present furrowed their brows with confusion.
The Celestial Thearch was fighting to repress the mouthful of blood that was trying to force its way out of his chest.
Sure enough, An Lin continued along the same line as his previous address.
“Hence, among all of the dazzling immortal peaches in the beautiful orchard, I”m only taking half!”
Everyone fell silent upon hearing this.
The Celestial Thearch: “…”
All of the representatives: “…”
