Chapter 267 - 267: of It Is Someone Else’s! 2
Lu Yuan felt the possibility of his ulterior motive being discovered was low.
The information he collected every time was minimal. No one would imagine that he could actually deduce their cultivation techniques through such limited information.
His method of stealing cultivation techniques was definitely novel in the celestial cultivation world.
Even if he were eventually exposed, Lu Yuan would have already gained much by then.
If he wanted the gaming pod to enter the market in the Upper Realm, he needed a middleman.
In Lu Yuan’s opinion, Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile were the perfect middlemen.
Lu Yuan briefly introduced the function of the holographic gaming pod. After that, he suggested Xu Ziyu or Xu Zile to choose who between the two of them should experience it.
The game they were experiencing was the Legend of Sword and Fairy that Lu Yuan had spent a lot of time creating.
Given Xu Ziyu’s and Xu Zile’s backgrounds, they would most likely be able to accept and master this game without much hassle.
When it came to trying out exciting things, Xu Zile was naturally up for the role.
After seeing that her brother was willing to try, Xu Ziyu hesitated momentarily and decided to give this fun opportunity to him.
After all, she was feeling guilty now!
Xu Ziyu couldn’t wait for something to divert Xu Zile’s attention.
She wished that Xu Zile had no memory of today. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing if he discovered that he almost died at her hands instead of the hands of their enemy.
After Xu Zile entered the gaming pod, it quickly started operating.
While Xu Zile was experiencing the world of Sword and Fairy, Lu Yuan talked to Xu Ziyu about the business he wanted to do with them.
“Daoist, how should I address you?”
“I’m Xu Ziyu, a disciple of the Qingqiu Clan.”
Lu Yuan nodded as if he had heard of the Qingqiu Clan before.
In reality, he had no idea what it was. He didn’t want to ruin his aloof persona, so he pretended he knew what she was talking about.
Fortunately for Lu Yuan, Xu Ziyu fell for his facade.
She actually thought that Lu Yuan had heard of the Qingqiu Clan before. She developed a more profound respect for him.
In her opinion, he must have had the backing of some experts. Otherwise, how did he learn about the Qingqiu Clan? If he knew nothing, he would at most think that she was a small demon from the Upper Realm.
Xu Ziyu strengthened her perception of Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan certainly had the backing of some experts.
After a moment of silence, Lu Yuan said, “Daoist Ziyu, the business 1 want to do with you is related to this gaming pod and the spiritual energy phone that my sect is selling. I noticed you already use a spiritual energy phone made by our sect. What do you think of this item?”
Xu Ziyu took out her pink Saturn Peach Phone and praised him generously.
“This item appears simple, but its functions are marvelous. Even in the Upper Realm, this item will definitely be sought after. However, the price is too low.”
Too low?
Lu Yuan suppressed his urge to lean backward dramatically and stare at Xu Ziyu in shock.
The price of three mid-grade spiritual stones was too low?
Were all people from the Upper Realm so rich?
However, when he recalled that the two of them had taken out three chaos spiritual stones, equivalent to 30,000 high-grade spiritual stones, without blinking, Lu Yuan felt that it was only expected for Xu Ziyu to think that the phone price was low.
These two little fox demons were both tycoons!
Lu Yuan was even more determined to do business with them.
If he didn’t use this opportunity to rip off the two of them, Lu Yuan felt that he had wasted all the business knowledge he had learned in his previous life.
Two fat sheep, no, two fat foxes, were right before him. He had to milk them dry!
“Daoist Ziyu, in your opinion, can these two spiritual energy magic instruments be sold in your clan?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Ziyu’s originally drooping white ears instantly pricked.
She could smell the scent of spiritual stones flowing into her pocket!
She replied, “I don’t see a problem with that. However, the price should be raised.”
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and raised a finger.
Xu Ziyu asked, “One chaos spiritual stone? Fellow Daoist Lu, ain’t you too greedy?”
F*ck! He did not mean one chaos spiritual stone. He meant a high-grade spiritual stone!
Lu Yuan was about to name the price he was thinking of, but Xu Ziyu continued speaking.
“One chaos spiritual stone is too much. I think the price of a supreme-grade spiritual stone will be suitable. My clan has countless Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators and many Core Formation Stage cultivators. The price of a supreme-grade spiritual stone is about the highest they can accept.”
Lu Yuan swallowed whatever he planned to say upon hearing this.
Damn it, was this how wealthy the tycoons were? She suggested the price of one supreme-grade spiritual stone so casually.
Lu Yuan recalled that he could barely earn about 10 supreme-grade spiritual stones a year. He suddenly felt he had worked in vain for the past few decades.
There was a saying that went, ‘Don’t use your income to challenge my pocket money.’
At this moment, Lu Yuan felt the reality of the Upper Realm hit him hard.
Just as Lu Yuan was shocked by the wealth of the Upper Realm, Xu Ziyu spoke again.
“Since we’re working together, how much will you give us?”
“90%,” Lu Yuan replied without hesitation.
“90%? Fellow Daoist, why are you so good to me?”
Hearing that Lu Yuan was willing to give them 90%, Xu Ziyu was stunned.
She looked at Lu Yuan somewhat bashfully as if conflicted about something..
