Free Web NovelChapter 88: Lei Mu
The shopkeeper was stunned, he could not imagine what kind of large business a 7th-stage Physique Transformation Realm cultivator could present.
Filled with doubts, the shopkeeper responded, "Fellow cultivator, I am sure I can handle this business. There is no need to involve a Spirit Vein Condensation Realm Senior."
Tang Yin sighed, he mockingly questioned, "Do you have the authority to purchase a Tier 8 Training Manual?" The shopkeeper’s expression changed drastically, after a moment of careful thought he replied, "I do not, please follow me."
The shopkeeper got up and led Tang Yin to the third floor, he would occasionally cast Tang Yin curious and doubtful glances. Tang Yin noticed this, but he ignored it.
When Tang Yin arrived at the third floor, he could tell that it was much smaller compared to the first and second floors. There were not many Spirit Vein Condensation Realm cultivators to begin with and even fewer who would specifically come to Lei’s Disposal to sell their items.
"Please wait here, I’ll fetch Elder Mu." The shopkeeper stopped at the beginning of the third floor and told Tang Yin to wait, he then stormed off towards a large room that stood out among the rest.
A moment later, An old man with a few strands of black hair walked out of the room alongside the shopkeeper. With the Heaven Piercing Gaze, Tang Yin could see that the old man was a 3rd stage Spirit Vein Condensation Realm Elder of the Lei family. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"I heard you want to sell a Tier 8 Training Manual." Elder Mu asked Tang Yin with an intimidating voice. Tang Yin wrapped his fist in his palm and respectfully responded "Indeed, Senior."
Tang Yin was only putting up an act, he did not put this old man in his eyes.
"Alright, enter." Elder Mu briefly replied and pointed to the room he had just walked out of. Tang Yin nodded and entered the room, followed by Elder Mu.
The room was very large, there were luxurious decorations made of gold everywhere, including the furniture. There were 2 tables, one table was Elder Mu’s personal desk, and the other table was where he invited guests to sit down, there were 3 chairs around the guest table.
Tang Yin did not sit down, he waited for permission. Elder Mu saw this and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Sit down." He said whilst pointing at one of the 3 chairs, only then did Tang Yin sit down.
Elder Mu sat before Tang Yin and introduced himself. "I am Lei Mu, an elder of the Lei family. I watch over Lei’s Disposal, show me the Tier 8 Training Manual." Lei Mu demanded.
Tang Yin brought out the Tier 8 Training Manual he had obtained from the Shan family’s real treasury. "Senior, this Training Manual is complete." Tang Yin spoke in a respectful voice.
Lei Mu did not read the Training Manual. If he read the Training Manual, it would be considered breaking the rules. Cultivators had an excellent memory, Lei Mu could memorise the Training Manual and decide not to purchase it. Therefore, the Lei and Xia family had decided to implement a rule which prevented this.
"Since it’s complete, I will offer 50 High-grade Spirit Stones and 5,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones." Lei Mu stared at the Tier 8 Training Manual before stating a price.
Tang Yin was not satisfied, the real price of the Training Manual was 100 High-grade Spirit Stones. But Lei Mu only wanted to give 50 High-grade and 5,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones. Although it was equivalent to 100 High-grade Spirit Stones, it was technically cheaper as nobody would trade a High-grade Spirit Stone for 100 Mid-grade Spirit Stones. Lei Mu was using the difference in cultivation between them to lower the price in a practical manner.
"I want 100 High-grade Spirit Stones." Tang Yin stubbornly replied. A light crease appeared on Lei Mu’s forehead, "50 High-grade and 5,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to 100 High-grade Spirit Stones." Lei Mu shamelessly bargained.
"Since it’s the same, then I’m sure Senior won’t mind 100 High-grade Spirit Stones. If Senior does mind, then this transaction will not work out." Tang Yin used a respectful tone to threaten Lei Mu.
A freezing glint appeared in Lei Mu’s eyes, he snorted and coldly spoke. "Fine." Although Lei Mu was an Elder of the Lei family, he still had to follow the rules of Treasure Bank City.
Lei Mu brought out 100 High-grade Spirit Stones and tossed them to Tang Yin, he swiftly stored them in his storage ring and placed the Tier 8 Training Manual on the table.
Tang Yin did not make any other purchases, he left the store. He could feel Lei Mu’s gaze still locked onto him even after he left, Tang Yin chuckled coldly in his heart. Tang Yin went to a random shop, when he left the shop, his appearance had changed to a youthful cultivator in the 1st stage of the Physique Transformation Realm. Tang Yin felt Lei Mu’s gaze linger on him for a second before disappearing.
Inside Lei Mu’s room on the third floor of Lei’s Disposal, Lei Mu was sitting before his desk, he held a teacup in his hand. His eyes shone with a fierce glint. When he lost track of Tang Yin, the cup in his hand shattered and boundless anger appeared on his face.
