Damn!
Holy crap!
Hong Ci felt he was truly getting old, completely unable to keep up with the pace of "Kong Xu Sheng Zi."
Was being "kidney deficient" something to be proud of now?
Hong Ci was at a loss, wondering how to stall "Kong Xu Sheng Zi," when his "savior" arrived.
"Steward Zhu" walked in with a joyous expression and light footsteps.
He leaned into Hong Ci's ear and whispered.
"Elder, that Ling Weifeng has arrived!"
"Oh, really? That's great!"
Hong Ci was so delighted he almost jumped out of his chair.
Excellent!
It was perfect that Ling Weifeng had arrived!
Hong Ci smiled broadly and cupped his hands in greeting to "Kong Xu Sheng Zi."
"Holy Son, the guest who pre-ordered the Xiantian He He Dan has arrived. Please move to the main hall. If he is willing to let you have the Xiantian He He Dan, we will naturally be pleased."
This "troublesome matter" was no longer their concern; it was for him to sort out with Ling Weifeng.
Finally, the "hot potato" had been passed on, and Hong Ci was overjoyed!
"Kong Xu Sheng Zi" didn't bother with more words and went straight to the main hall.
Upon entering the hall, he saw Ling Weifeng immediately.
Ling Weifeng was handsome and possessed an extraordinary aura. Standing amidst the crowd, he was like a "crane among chickens," exceptionally conspicuous.
What a handsome young man!
A "sharp glint" flashed in "Kong Xu Sheng Zi's" eyes as he arrogantly declared.
"Handsome young man, I, Yu Kong Xu, will have the Xiantian He He Dan! I heard you prepaid one hundred High-Grade spirit stones. I'll give you two hundred High-Grade spirit stones, how about that?"
Although "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" was overbearing, he didn't resort to immediate threats but intended to buy Ling Weifeng off with "two hundred High-Grade spirit stones."
He probably had the wrong idea!
Hong Ci shook his head internally.
Someone like Ling Weifeng, judging by his demeanor, was clearly an unruly individual. How could he be bought off by a mere "two million Low-Grade spirit stones"...
Before Hong Ci could even finish this thought, he saw Ling Weifeng nod across from him and agree readily.
"Fine, no problem. Give me twenty thousand High-Grade spirit stones, and I'll give the Xiantian He He Dan to you!"
Hong Ci
What the hell!
What kind of nonsense was this?
Were young people these days all so wild?
The "Xiantian He He Dan," which he was supposed to obtain at all costs, was abandoned so casually for "twenty thousand High-Grade spirit stones"?
So unprincipled!
Was there no bottom line anymore?
Hong Ci grumbled furiously in his heart, feeling that he was truly an old man, completely unable to understand the "mysterious operations" of today's youth!
Meanwhile, Ling Weifeng was in a great mood!
He had been worrying about what to do with the "Xiantian He He Dan" after buying it back.
Spending "ten million Low-Grade spirit stones" to purchase the "Xiantian He He Dan" did not align with the fundamental interests of the "Dragon Rider Merchant Guild!"
However, to see the act through, Ling Weifeng had to spend the money!
Now, someone was voluntarily stepping up to be the "fool."
Not only that, but Ling Weifeng could also earn an extra "two million Low-Grade spirit stones." He couldn't be happier!
...
"Kong Xu Sheng Zi" was also taken aback.
He had been "throwing his weight around" for many years, and he had committed his fair share of bullying.
But this was the first time he had encountered someone so cooperative.
Was this "handsome young man" so aware of the situation?
Seeing Ling Weifeng's cooperation, "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" felt a little awkward.
"Handsome young man, what is your name?"
"I am Ling Weifeng!"
"Good, you are very good! How about this, let me become friends with you..."
"Kong Xu Sheng Zi" proactively proposed to befriend Ling Weifeng.
Influenced and guided by "Qian Duo Duo," Ling Weifeng's "service consciousness" had greatly improved.
In Ling Weifeng's view, "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" was willing to buy the "Xiantian He He Dan," thus saving the "Dragon Rider Merchant Guild" ten million Low-Grade spirit stones.
Moreover, "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" was willing to pay Ling Weifeng an additional "two hundred High-Grade spirit stones."
Combined, this amounted to "twelve million Low-Grade spirit stones"!
"A quality customer!"
Ling Weifeng had already categorized "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" as a "quality customer."
Serving "quality customers" was the duty of every member of the "Dragon Rider Merchant Guild."
As the "leader of the second generation sword renters," Ling Weifeng had to set an example.
Ling Weifeng abandoned his usual image of a "cool sword immortal," smiled broadly, and nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I am willing to be friends with you!"
"Kong Xu Sheng Zi" burst into laughter, immensely pleased.
"Good friend! I am so happy to befriend you today. Come, I'll take you to the Heavenly Palace Club to have a good time!"
The more "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" looked at Ling Weifeng, the more kindred spirits he felt. He intended to entertain Ling Weifeng with the highest standard.
"Heavenly Palace Club!"
The most high-end entertainment venue in "Penglai Port Immortal City."
The hostesses there were beautiful and skilled, capable of making you feel the treatment of "Heavenly Palace."
Awesome!
Ling Weifeng's lips twitched.
As a "cool sword immortal," someone who had transcended base desires, a pure individual, he did not like places like the "Heavenly Palace Club."
"Discussing life" with hostesses was completely out of the question!
However...
Ahem, to establish a good relationship with a "quality customer," Ling Weifeng felt it was necessary to make a personal sacrifice... to "accompany a friend to the end," as they say!
Please don't misunderstand, I, Ling Weifeng, am absolutely not looking forward to this, nor am I happy about it. In fact, I am in great pain and helplessness inside... Uh, the curve of my mouth is a bitter smile, definitely not from pure joy, definitely not!
And so, amidst the dumbfounded stares of Hong Ci, "Steward Zhu," and others, "Kong Xu Sheng Zi" quickly completed all the procedures. He produced "one thousand High-Grade spirit stones" and successfully purchased the "Xiantian He He Dan." After carefully storing the "Xiantian He He Dan," he gave Ling Weifeng "two hundred High-Grade spirit stones" and then, beaming with joy, took Ling Weifeng to the "Heavenly Palace Club"...
Hong Ci
Continuously dumbfounded...
"Steward Zhu"
Continuously dumbfounded...
What the heck was all this!
Was friendship among young people these days so "magical"?
Couldn't understand it!
Truly couldn't understand it!
At the same time, various "pharmaceutical merchant houses" welcomed the customers who had pre-ordered the "Xiantian He He Dan."
Including "Chao Ren Tang," none of the major "pharmaceutical merchant houses" could produce the "Xiantian He He Dan." They could only return all the deposits paid by the customers, along with an additional ten to twenty "High-Grade spirit stones," and repeatedly apologized.
Those customers expressed their dissatisfaction, their faces dark, and left with their money...
Shortly after, Qian Duo Duo's sinister and lewd laughter echoed throughout "San Xian Port."
This marketing campaign of his had not only cost him nothing but had also earned him over ten million Low-Grade spirit stones.
Mwahahaha...
