Greedy Wolf World.
Skywolf City.
The city lord's residence.
Sun Shu and the others could not help but walk up to the human-shaped Heavenly Stone to examine it. The shock on their faces could not be concealed. Seeing this, Tuduo's lips curled into a faint smile. Ning Qi activated his Heavenly Origin Eye, causing golden threads to condense in his pupils. In the end, just as he was about to see what was inside the human-shaped Heavenly Origin Stone, the golden threads in his pupils rapidly disappeared. In less than three breaths of time, the golden threads were completely exhausted.
Ning Qi could only see a black shadow inside. It was also human-shaped!
Ning Qi did not see what it was exactly.
"With my cultivation, I can easily see seven or eight human-shaped Heavenly Stones like this. Why did I exhaust the golden threads on just one? At the same time, I can't even see what's inside?"
Ning Qi's eyes flashed with a hint of seriousness. There was only one reason that could explain this, and that was that the Heavenly Source Stone was nurturing an extremely powerful existence. Perhaps it was a soul, or perhaps it was a Primordial Numinous Treasure. In short, it was of a higher grade than any of the Heavens Ning Qi had seen so far.
An Origin Stone!
"Little brother Ning, how is it?"
The deputy city lord of Skywolf City had been paying attention to Ning Qi's expression. He could not help but ask when he saw Ning Qi's serious expression.
Ning Qi smiled and gestured for the deputy city lord to calm down. He then looked at Tuduo. "How much are you selling this Heavenly Stone for?"
"Three hundred million."
Tuduo smiled faintly. "Three hundred million, not a cent less."
"Three hundred million …" Ning Qi muttered, "A humanoid Heavenly Source Stone like this is indeed rare. However, the value of a Heavenly Source Stone lies within, not on the surface. This Heavenly Source Stone could possibly contain something that could endanger our safety. Two hundred million Origin Essence Stones.
I can buy it, but if it's three hundred million, you can take it back. "
"Two hundred million?"
Tuduo sneered and put away the Heavenly Stone. He said to the deputy city lord, "Deputy city lord, it seems that you are not sincere. I won't disturb you any further. I heard that the city lord likes Heavenly Stones very much. Perhaps he will be willing to buy it."
"Fellow Tuduo, please wait. Let us discuss it."
The deputy city lord said calmly.
Tuduo snorted and sat down again.
"Little Brother Ning, are you sure this Heavenly Origin Stone is only worth 200 million?"
The Vice City Lord of Celestial Wolf City looked at Ning Qi and transmitted his voice. "Its true value is naturally above two hundred million. However, even I do not know how much more it will be. Three hundred million is too high. With this capital, I can turn it into one billion, or even more. There is no need to gamble on this Heavenly Origin Stone. At the same time.
That's because I suspect that the thing inside is an inauspicious object. It might be worthless and might even be harmful to us! "
Ning Qi transmitted his voice.
"An inauspicious object …"
The Vice City Lord of Heavenly Wolf City nodded thoughtfully. The Heavenly Stone could seal ancient Connate spiritual treasures and elixirs. Similarly, it could also seal many dangerous items. Once these Heavenly Stones were opened, only a few people would die if they were lucky. If they were unlucky, an entire city might perish.
Burial. There weren't many Heavenly Origin Stones, and most cultivators wouldn't be so unlucky. Only Heavenly Origin Masters who frequently gambled on stones would have a certain chance of encountering one.
"Fellow Daoist Tuduo, are you sure you can't sell it for 200 million Origin Essence Stones?"
The Vice City Lord of Heavenly Wolf City spoke again.
Tuduo coldly sneered and cupped his hands. He stood up and left without saying a word. His heart was clearly filled with anger.
"What a pity. I really want to see what's inside."
The Vice City Lord of Heavenly Wolf City shook his head with a faint smile.
After Tuduo left, Ning Qi and the others stayed in the City Lord Mansion for a few more hours. They had a lunch before bidding their farewells. At the entrance, they bumped into Tuduo again. His expression was ugly, and he let out a cold snort when he saw Ning Qi. He turned around and left.
From the looks of it, Tuduo hadn't sold the Heavenly Origin Stone.
"Brother Ning, do you think there's a person inside the Heavenly Origin Stone?"
Sun Shu suddenly asked on the way back to the inn.
Shi Xiaoyue and the others also revealed a trace of curiosity. They wanted to hear Ning Qi's detailed analysis.
"Even if it's a person, it's probably just a corpse."
Ning Qi smiled.
"If it's the corpse of a fifth-step almighty, it's also extremely valuable. We can sell it to those large sects that specialize in refining corpses. They have a great desire for such corpses!"
Sun Shu sighed. "It's a pity that the price is too high. That guy isn't willing to sell it. Otherwise, I really want to see what's inside. How can it transform into a Heavenly Origin Stone that looks so much like a real person?"
"Sometimes, curiosity isn't a good thing. Let's go. We've been here for so long and haven't really strolled around. Let's take a walk today?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"Alright."
Shi Xiaoyue smiled and nodded.
At night.
At the inn. Ning Qi was originally meditating. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and took out a smiling mask. He put it on and walked out of the room. At the same time, Jiu Kun and the others were also meditating and resting. At night, they would no longer stare at the screen.
Unless someone had a special hobby.
"The Dark Parliament won't be watching 24/7, right?"
Ning Qi comforted himself and walked toward the place he had scouted during the day. His destination was the inn where Tuduo was staying! Not to mention 300 million, even if it was 400 million or 500 million, Ning Qi planned to buy that Heavenly Origin Stone. It was able to use up all the golden threads of the Heavenly Origin Eye, and he could only vaguely see it. Its value could be several times higher than the original amount.
Even if the Dark Parliament discovered his actions, Ning Qi would not let it go.
Ten minutes later.
In a room of a luxurious inn.
Tuduo looked coldly at Ning Qi. "Who are you? Why are you here?"
He did not attack immediately because Ning Qi was wearing a smiling mask that concealed his aura. Tuduo could not detect Ning Qi's cultivation.
"I heard that you have a human-shaped Heavenly Origin Stone. I hope to buy it."
Ning Qi said in a hoarse voice.
"You're from the City Lord's Mansion?" Tu Duo frowned slightly, and the vigilance on his face disappeared. The only people who knew that he had the Human-Shaped Heavenly Stone were the people from the City Lord's Mansion. This was because he had only gone to the City Lord's Mansion the moment he arrived at Tian Lang City. He had planned to go to the other factions tomorrow.
He had not expected that someone would come to him that very night.
"You don't need to know who I am. You sell things, and I buy things. That's enough."
Ning Qi said calmly.
"Haha, that's true."
Tuduo's eyes revealed a hint of mockery as he said calmly, "300 million Origin Stones. Cash and goods."
"It's in here. You can count it."
Ning Qi tossed an Interspatial Ring to Tuduo. After Tuduo caught it, he scanned it with his Divine Telekinesis. In just three breaths, he had already counted it clearly. There were indeed 300 million Origin Stones.
"Aren't you afraid … that I'll hide this sum of Origin Stones from you?"
Tuduo said with a faint smile.
"You're a businessman. You won't do business that you're not confident in."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Indeed, this is an Origin Stone. Take it."
