"Brother … Brother Chen … You said that your friend is treating you to a meal … You mean … You're going to the Northern Wilderness Temple for a state banquet?"
Linghu Shuang, on the other hand, could not believe what she had just heard.
"Yes."
Chen Xiaobei shrugged. "I've always said that I'm in a hurry. I don't want to be late."
"That's so cool … Why didn't you tell me earlier? I've been worried for nothing!" Linghu Shuang let out a long sigh.
Now, Chen Xiaobei had become the guest of honor of the Northern Wilderness Overlord. Tie Hongji would not dare to lay a finger on Chen Xiaobei even if he had the guts of a million men!
"Mr. Chen, let's go!"
Ximen Dingjun said. "The state banquet is about to begin. Those who are attending the banquet today are the most powerful people on Divine Cloud Planet! If we're late, I'm afraid father will blame us … "
"Heh, even if he wants to blame someone, it won't be me!" Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes. "Don't you think so? Iron cock? "
"Huh?" Tie Hongji was taken aback, and he started to sweat profusely.
If Chen Xiaobei was really late, the Overlord would only blame Tie Hongji!
If it was not for this idiot who pestered Chen Xiaobei, Chen Xiaobei would not have been late.
"It's a misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding! "
Tie Hongji said. "Mr. Chen … Everything that happened just now is all my fault … Please hurry to the banquet. Don't let those important people wait for you …"
"Heh, do you know that it's easier to invite a god in than to send him away?"
Chen Xiaobei raised an eyebrow. "If the deal had gone smoothly, I would have arrived at the banquet by now! But since you've stopped me, don't think that I can leave so easily! "
Tie Hongji sucked in a breath of cold air and begged, "Mr. Chen! Brother Chen! Master Chen … I'm begging you … You can't joke about this … "
"Do I look like I'm joking with you?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"This …" Tie Hongji was taken aback. He was so anxious that his mind went blank.
If the Overlord were to blame him, the consequences would be unbearable for Tie Hongji.
Ximen Dingjun thought for a while and then barked, "What?! Ask your men to bring out the Spiritual Stones and complete the deal with Mr. Chen! "
"Deal? Yes, yes, yes! How could I have forgotten about this! "
Tie Hongji quickly ordered, "Bao Qingshan! Immediately withdraw 250 million low-grade spiritual stones! Quick! Go! "
"Understood!" Bao Qingshan nodded and immediately took action.
"Stop!"
Chen shouted and said calmly, "Just now, I accepted 250 million. But now, I will not accept this price!"
"You won't accept it!? Then … tell me a price, and I'll try my best to meet it, right? "Tie Hongji's body trembled, and his heart sank.
The 250 million low-grade Spiritual Stones that Tie Hongji had agreed upon at the beginning was changed to 250 million low-grade Spiritual Stones by Tie Hongji to humiliate Chen Xiaobei.
Right now, Chen Xiaobei was going to give Tie Hongji a taste of his own medicine and teach him a lesson!
"500 million!"
Chen raised his eyebrows and only said two words.
Just these two words alone were enough to shock everyone to death. It directly caused a huge shock in the hearts of everyone present.
500 million low-grade Spirit Stones!
In the entire Northern Wilderness, other than the Northern Wilderness Temple and the Northern Wilderness Chamber of Commerce, no other faction could come up with such a large sum of Spiritual Stones.
Of course, this did not mean that the top factions did not have that many Spiritual Stones. It was just that if they wanted to come up with so many Spiritual Stones in one go, they would have to sell off all their assets!
It was not hard to imagine how terrifying such a huge amount of Spiritual Stones was!
"Mr. Chen … You can't do this … The price has doubled! This is daylight robbery … "Tie Hongji said with a tearful look on his face. He even felt like killing himself.
"You're right! I'm taking advantage of the situation! Bite me if you don't like it! "
Chen Xiaobei raised his eyebrows and said, "Let me make this clear! If you don't agree, I will not leave today! It's almost time for the banquet. Do you think the Overlord will come personally? "
Tie Hongji sucked in a breath of cold air. "Mr. Chen, please do me a favor and lower the price a little … If my dad finds out that I've lost so many Spiritual Stones, he will definitely break my legs …"
"Heh, lower the price? Not a problem! "Chen Xiaobei grinned.
Tie Hongji was pleasantly surprised. "Mr. Chen! You really are a good person! "
"Good person? No, I'm not a good person! "
Chen Xiaobei changed the subject. "Kneel down and kowtow to me. For every kowtow, I will reduce the price by 100,000 Spiritual Stones! How much you want to reduce will depend on your performance! "
"What?!" Tie Hongji's eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets.
This was a classic example of retribution. It was not that the time had not come yet!
That was how Tie Hongji had made things difficult for Chen Xiaobei earlier. Now, karma had come!
If he paid 500 million low-grade Spiritual Stones, Tie Hongji's father would break his legs! If he kneeled down and kowtowed, he would become the laughing stock of the entire Northern Wilderness Starfield!
"Ninth Young Lord … Please say something for me … We're brothers … You can't just watch me die …" Tie Hongji was stuck between a rock and a hard place. He could only ask Ximen Dingjun for help.
Ximen Dingjun frowned. "Mr. Chen, can you do me a favor? Lower the price a little … "
"No way!"
Before Ximen Dingjun could finish, Chen Xiaobei had already rejected him. His tone was firm and domineering. There was no room for doubt!
Ximen Dingjun narrowed his eyes, clearly displeased with Chen Xiaobei's attitude.
Coincidentally, Chen Xiaobei saw this detail and confirmed that Ximen Dingjun could not be trusted!
If the Northern Wilderness Overlord was not waiting for him at the state banquet, Ximen Dingjun would have sided with Tie Hongji to deal with Chen Xiaobei!
At first, Chen Xiaobei thought that Ximen Dingjun would thank him for saving his life and become friends with him.
But now, it seemed that Chen Xiaobei had thought too much.
Ximen Dingjun could not be a friend. He could only be a dog!
With that in mind, Chen Xiaobei decided that he would give one of the remaining seven Heavenly Dog Biscuits to Ximen Dingjun!
After a moment of stalemate, Ximen Dingjun gritted his teeth. "Hongji! Mr. Chen doesn't want to lower the price. Just do as he says and bring me 500 million low-grade Spiritual Stones! "
"I … I will be beaten to death by my father if I do that …" Tie Hongji was in tears.
"Cut the crap! Even if you want to kneel and kowtow, there's not enough time! Go get the Spiritual Stones now! "Ximen Dingjun barked.
Tie Hongji's heart skipped a beat. "I understand … I'll go now …"
Tie Hongji had no other way out. He could only obediently bring the Spiritual Stones.
After receiving the Spiritual Stones and confirming that there was no mistake, Chen Xiaobei tossed out all the Demonic Beasts' carcasses. After all, this was a business transaction. He had to keep the goods to prevent gossip.
Of course, this was a profitable transaction!
