Chapter 70: A poor swordsman doesn't mean a poor sect.
"No, I didn't see anything I liked after looking around. But this Lingbao Pavilion really broadened my horizons. They have rare treasures like ten-thousand-year-old ice and fire spirit marrow, but they're so expensive."
Ok?
Eternal ice?
"Take me to the Eternal Ice, don't you want the Fire Spirit Essence?"
"I want it, but I don't have any spirit stones!"
Tu Shan: "You can sell your pills to exchange for them."
Geng Yu shook his head: "I'm not in such a hurry. My cultivation has just improved, and I need to consolidate it for a while."
"Alright, you decide for yourself. Sister Lou, take me to see the eternal ice!"
"Let me tell you first, this ten-thousand-year-old ice is not very big, so don't be disappointed."
Tu Shan shook his head: "Let's take a look first."
A group of people arrived at the place where the eternal ice was located.
Just as she was about to get close, the chilling air made Tu Shan feel even weaker, so she quickly retreated.
She didn't want to waste the extra years of her life that she had worked so hard to gain.
"Sister Lou, I'm not feeling well, so I'd better not go. Just tell me the price."
"This palm-sized piece of ancient ice isn't expensive either, only eight million low-grade spirit stones."
Tu Shan's eyes widened, and he growled, "What? Say that again if you dare?"
Zhong Qi: I shouldn't be on the third floor, I should be underground. I'm not worthy.
Geng Yu: Hahaha, luckily I don't have an ice spirit root.
"Little Situ, you heard me right, it's eight million."
Tu Shan calculated how many spirit stones this trip would cost.
Thankfully, I didn't spend all the money I earned today.
"Sister Lou, what was that dark thing just now?"
Lou Xiyue shrugged: "I don't know, and I don't know what it does."
"Then why do you still dare to put them in the rare and exotic treasures section?"
"This thing can't be cut by an eighth-tier weapon, nor can it be melted by a strange fire. It's very magical. It's priced at one million low-grade spirit stones."
Seeing her mysterious expression and high price, Tu Shan rolled her eyes.
Hmph, don't even think about arousing my curiosity.
I already have one, so it's nothing special.
Unless it's free.
"Geng Yu, you really aren't going to buy it?"
Geng Yu shook her head: "Next time!"
Tu Shan was heartbroken; a chance to earn 40% off had slipped away right before his eyes.
There is ample time.
The group returned to the private room, and she looked up at Lou Xiyue: "Sister Lou, can you calculate for me how many spirit stones I need to pay, including this ten-thousand-year-old ice?"
"A total of 24.9 million, with a 40% discount, it's 14.94 million."
"Sister Lou, look at me, I worked so hard to earn spirit stones, and now I'm back to square one, without a single one left. Can you give me a discount?"
What the hell is this "not a single leaf sticking to him"?
Geng Yu: Haha, that little mute can easily spend tens of millions of spirit stones now. I can't be envious of him; I don't have the ability.
Zhong Qi: I'm numb.
"A 40% discount, still not enough?"
"I don't care, it hurts to see the spirit stones I just got spent again. How about twelve million?"
Lou Xiyue put her hands on her hips: "Impossible. I'll give you a little less at most. You have 14.5 million. If it's less, let's not talk about it. Come back next time."
Seeing that her expression didn't seem fake, Tu Shan nodded and said, "Okay, we won't talk about the price, but you can give me a bonus. Give me that dark thing, and I'll buy another million spirit plants, how about that?"
Lou Xiyue considered it for a while and then agreed.
"Okay, what kind of spiritual plant do you want to buy?"
"Ta-da, here."
Lou Xiyue took the three sheets of paper from Tu Shan: "Go and mix them according to the proportions."
Tu Shan hurriedly said, "Don't forget I still have 240,000 with you. Get it all matched."
"Alright, alright, you're in charge."
Lou Xiyue took the items from the waiter beside her: "This is your seventh-tier metal broadsword, a seventh-tier ice spirit sword, an eighth-tier fire and wood dual-attribute glass fan, ten-thousand-year-old ice, and black stone."
She accepted the four items that belonged to her and gestured for Zhong Qi to take them himself.
He took out fourteen high-grade spirit stones and fifty-five mid-grade spirit stones from his storage ring.
Looking at the eight high-grade spirit stones, one mid-grade spirit stone, and nearly two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, I'm still too poor and can't afford to spend them.
"Qianqian, put the sword and the Eternal Ice in your best friend's space."
"Okay, thank you so much, darling, mwah mwah mwah."
Within minutes, the waiter had prepared all the medicinal plants.
Tu Shan packed up her things, waved to Lou Xiyue, and left.
Seeing Zhong Qi clutching the sword with obvious delight, he sneered, "Still looking at it? Do you want to be hunted down? Do you want everyone to know you have a treasure?"
Zhong Qi said awkwardly, "Put it away now."
Tu Shan: "I remember you owe me 2.4 million spirit stones, and you, Geng Yu, owe me 100,000."
Geng Yu nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Okay, where do we go now?"
"What were you originally here for?"
"We've both reached the Foundation Establishment stage, so we're doing sect missions and just happened to come visit you."
"Is the task finished?"
"not yet."
"Gather spiritual plants and slay demonic beasts."
"How about we split up? You go and complete the sect mission first, and I'll go..."
"No, I want to follow you."
Geng Yu quickly shook his head.
Hey, you're sticking to me now, aren't you?
"Alright, I'll accompany you to complete the sect mission first. Where to?"
"Hehe, Green Forest."
Tu Shan: ...You said you were coming to visit me, but men are all liars after all.
"Let's go!"
He silently prayed for one million mid-grade spirit stones.
"Isn't your master planning to come and learn from you?"
"Come and learn, didn't I tell you? He's already prepared the spirit stones."
"Really? I haven't checked the communication jade in the last six months. Let me check."
Thinking of the one million mid-grade spirit stones that were about to be in her hands, Tu Shan couldn't help but scream.
He took out the spirit jade and found Geng Yu. He flipped through the pages and found that a message had indeed been sent two months ago.
I checked Zhong Qi's message again; the content was similar.
What did Cheng Nan want with her?
"Hahaha, the Tianyi Sword Sect is sending three people to learn from me. Aren't sword cultivators supposed to be poor?"
Geng Yu: I have to tell that old geezer, and make him furious.
Zhong Qi: Just because sword cultivators are poor doesn't mean that sects are poor too.
Are all your sect's missions difficult?
"It's not difficult, it can be done in half a month at most."
“Alright, I’ll find a place for the people from the Tianyi Sword Sect to learn from.”
Geng Yu became anxious.
Zhong Qi panicked.
"Why not let our Lingyun Sect come?"
"It's not that I'm not allowing it, it's just that they have three while you only have one, so I'll definitely give them priority."
Ha, since they've said that, I don't believe the Lingyun Sect isn't in a hurry. I'll consider it a loss if they don't send more people.
Geng Yu hurriedly sent a message to their old man.
Zhong Qi sent a message to the sugar rooster master.
Tu Shan slowly sent a message to Cheng Nan.
"Let's go, let's finish your sect's mission first."
The task is simple: pick the second-tier spiritual plant, the Golden Spirit Flower, and collect the venomous fangs of the second-tier demonic beast, the Azure Spirit Serpent.
If your level is low, you can complete the task from the outside.
Ten days later, the three emerged from the Green Forest.
I rented a temporary courtyard and sent the address to Cheng Nan.
Three hours later, four powerful auras appeared in the courtyard.
Tu Shan came out of the courtyard to greet them.
"Tu Shan greets the four elders of the Tianyi Sword Sect."
Besides Jian Wu, there are three others.
Tu Shan looked up and immediately recognized three different personalities.
One is steady, one is disdainful, and one is shrewd.
She didn't care what these people thought and walked up to Jian Wu.
"Elder Jian, we originally agreed to refine only one batch, and how much they learn would be up to them, right?"
