Chu Mu found Elder Lin's expression a little funny, but he wasn't afraid.
Since they had reached an agreement, all that was left was to complete the deal.
At this moment, Elder Lin's face revealed an awkward expression.
"Sir, that … that …" Elder Lin's tone was intermittent.
"Don't tell me you don't have enough Silver Hearts to pay?" Chu Mu asked.
"Not only is your strength unfathomable, but your wisdom is also incomparable to ordinary people," Elder Lin said respectfully.
"Then this deal can't be done." Chu Mu was unmoved and said regretfully.
"No, it can be done, it can still be done." Elder Lin was afraid that Chu Mu would go back on his word, so he hurriedly said, "Didn't you plan to buy a flying shuttle? That old guy and I have known each other for hundreds of years. When the time comes, his flying shuttle will help me pay for a portion of it."
"I want to buy an ordinary small flying shuttle. You have to help me negotiate the price," Chu Mu said. This was the condition.
Originally, he planned to buy a small exquisite flying shuttle. Unfortunately, the price in the black market was as high as six thousand Silver Hearts. Even if he could bargain, the most he could get was five thousand five hundred Silver Hearts. Even with the four thousand five hundred Silver Hearts he got from selling the Black Demon Mansion's flying shuttle and the ones he had, it was still not enough.
Even if it was enough, Chu Mu could only give up because he still had other uses for the Silver Hearts.
Taking a step back, he could only buy an ordinary small flying shuttle.
If he didn't buy it, his accumulation of wealth would be astonishing.
"Okay." Elder Lin agreed happily. There was no other way. Who asked him to not be able to take out 4,500 Silver Hearts at once?
"Sir, I estimate that the price can only be 3,500 Silver Hearts at most." Elder Lin thought for a while and added.
"3,500 Silver Hearts." This was also a standard in Chu Mu's heart. Of course, it would be best if it could be lower. "Let's use 3,500 Silver Hearts as the benchmark. The lower the price, the better. Half of the lower portion will belong to you."
In other words, if the final price was 3,500 Silver Hearts, Elder Lin still had to pay Chu Mu 1,000 Silver Hearts. But if the price could be lower to 3,400 Silver Hearts, 50 of the 100 Silver Hearts would belong to Elder Lin.
"I'll do my best." Elder Lin was delighted at first, but he soon smiled bitterly. He knew his old friend's temperament very well. The price of 3,500 was probably the limit.
The Black Demon Mansion's flying shuttle was still in Chu Mu's spatial ring because Elder Lin had yet to give him the Silver Heart.
He left the backyard and returned to the shop.
Song Ling and the other two were still there. From the looks of it, they were waiting for Chu Mu to come out before ruthlessly attacking Yangliu.
Just as she was about to speak, Song Ling noticed a smile on Elder Lin's face.
She had known Elder Lin for more than twenty years and had rarely seen him smile. This kind of smile was clearly joy from the bottom of his heart. Could it be that the person brought by Yangliu had something that Elder Lin was very satisfied with?
Yangliu also noticed this and immediately looked at Chu Mu with a puzzled expression. However, Chu Mu did not respond.
"Deacon Yang, you've finally brought the right person this time." Elder Lin's tone was very happy as he chuckled. As he walked outside, he turned around and called out to Chu Mu, "Sir, please follow me."
That attitude and that tone shocked everyone even more.
"What did you do?" Song Ling asked involuntarily. However, Chu Mu acted as if he did not hear her and ignored her. He followed Elder Lin out of the shop and walked outside.
Yangliu hurriedly followed behind.
"I want to take a look too. What about the two of you?" Song Ling said unwillingly.
"Then let's go and take a look together."
The shop that sold the flying shuttle was not far from Elder Lin's Scarlet Snow shop. It was only a few hundred meters away, so they arrived very quickly.
"Old man, there's business at the door," Elder Lin shouted before he even entered the shop.
"What business?" An old voice came out. Immediately, an old man who looked very old walked out. He had a stooped body and a hunchback. His aura was just like an ordinary person.
However, anyone who treated him as an ordinary person would be a fool.
As he spoke, the hunchback old man's turbid eyes casually swept past Chu Mu and the others' faces. In that instant, Chu Mu knew that the strength of this hunchback old man was probably above Elder Lin.
"Come, come, come. I'll tell you in detail." Elder Lin pulled the hunchback old man's sleeve and walked into the shop. At the same time, he turned his head and greeted Chu Mu, "Sir, please wait for a moment."
Chu Mu nodded.
Elder Lin pulled the hunchback old man into the shop and began to talk.
Everyone waited outside.
"What did you trade with Elder Lin?" Yangliu finally could not hold back her curiosity and asked Chu Mu.
"Nothing." Chu Mu said. Not to mention Yangliu's previous attitude, even if her attitude was very good, Chu Mu could not tell her that he traded with the Black Demon Palace's flying shuttle. The implications were too great.
Yangliu's brows furrowed when she met with a cold rebuff from Chu Mu. She was a little annoyed. Immediately, she seemed to have thought of something and her expression returned to normal.
Time slowly passed.
A quarter of an hour felt like a year to everyone.
"Sir, please come in." Elder Lin popped his head out and said to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu followed him into the shop.
"I have three ordinary small shuttles here. You can choose one." The hunchback old man's turbid eyes stared at Chu Mu. After a few breaths, as if he wanted to see through him, he waved his hand and three flying shuttles about ten meters long each appeared in front of him.
The three shuttles were different in color. One was ice blue, one was fiery red, and the last one was bright yellow.
The three shuttles were generally similar in appearance. They were all shuttle-shaped, which was why they were called shuttles. However, the details were different.
The ice blue shuttle had a sharp protrusion in front. It was about the thickness of an arm and half a meter long. It was thinner and sharper at the end, like a straight horn.
The fiery red shuttle looked taller and narrower, with small triangular wings on both sides. The bright yellow shuttle was wider and flatter, with a fish-like tail.
"What's the difference?" Chu Mu asked.
The hunchback old man had no intention of explaining, so Elder Lin simply explained, letting Chu Mu know the differences between the three shuttles.
"Price?" Chu Mu asked again.
"Three thousand five hundred." Elder Lin had a bitter look on his face. It seemed that if the price could not be reduced, he would not be able to get more benefits from it.
"I want the bright yellow shuttle, and you give me a thousand silver hearts." Chu Mu said.
Immediately, Chu Mu took out the Black Demon Palace's flying shuttle. The hunchback old man's eyes lit up.
The transaction was completed.
Chu Mu heaved a sigh of relief. Now, he could go to the Black Demon Giant Sword again, because the silver hearts were enough.
"Haha, sir, please come again next time." Elder Lin sent Chu Mu away and laughed. Although the price could not be negotiated, he could at least earn five hundred silver hearts. The profit was huge, so he was naturally happy.
Elder Lin's attitude made everyone even more puzzled and suspicious.
"Elder Lin, how much did you trade?" Song Ling couldn't help but ask.
"It's ten times more than the two deals you brought," Elder Lin replied.
"Ten times more!" Song Ling and Yang Liu were shocked.
The two of them traded fifty silver hearts. Ten times more, that would be five hundred silver hearts. Ten times more, that would be more than five hundred silver hearts.
Yang Liu was more shocked than Song Ling because Song Ling didn't know Chu Mu's cultivation, but Yang Liu knew that he was an early stage Fourth Sky of the Aeon Realm. His trade volume was more than five hundred silver hearts. This was a trade volume that many nine-star Saints could not achieve.
"Elder Lin, farewell." Song Ling's expression was extremely ugly, but she still said goodbye to Elder Lin and left with the other two. She was afraid that she would be humiliated if she stayed.
At this moment, Yang Liu did not have the slightest intention of attacking Song Ling with words. That was because, in addition to her shock, she also felt some regret. She thought to herself that she should not have treated this person so coldly, to the point where she did not even ask for his name.
Yang Liu's thoughts were extremely complicated. Her expression was even more complicated.
"Deacon Yang, is there anything else?" Chu Mu asked.
"Ah … What?" Yang Liu was confused.
"If there's nothing else, I would like to return to Bloodbath City." Chu Mu said.
"Oh, okay, okay. I'll arrange it right away." Yang Liu quickly replied. Compared to before, her attitude was very different.
Walking out of the Black Hall, they quickly left the Black Hall and went back to the entrance.
On the way, Yang Liu opened her mouth a few times, wanting to say something. Chu Mu knew that she wanted to say something, but he didn't care because he felt that there was no need.
"He's just a beginner four-star Martial Saint. Someone probably sent him to sell the goods." As Yang Liu's thoughts churned, she finally came up with this idea. She relaxed and no longer planned to speak.
They didn't say anything along the way. When they reached their destination, Yang Liu took the lead and flew up. Immediately, the ground above them cracked again, revealing an exit.
Yang Liu went through the exit first, followed by Chu Mu.
Finally, they returned to the ground. Yang Liu took out the flying shuttle. The two of them boarded it and flew quickly in the direction of Bloodbath City.
A few days later, they arrived outside Bloodbath City. When they got off the flying shuttle, the carriage was already waiting for them. It was obvious that the Black Market was very well-informed.
However, this time, Chu Mu didn't ride the carriage with Yang Liu. The purpose of his trip was already over. There was no need to spend more time with her.
Yang Liu was happy to do so.
In the blink of an eye, the trip to the Black Market and Yang Liu were thrown to the back of Chu Mu's mind.
"Should I go to the City of Silver to sell the elixirs or go to the Onyx God Sword?" Chu Mu thought as he walked into Bloodbath City.
"It's been more than ten days. Maybe Long Yunkong and the others already have news. I'll return the Black Market token to Xu Qingya first and see what's going on." Chu Mu made a decision and quickened his pace.
