Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1773: Chapter 735: Turning Point

Xu Jin nearby just smiled, quietly watching their bargaining.

To be honest, this feeling of watching others get fleeced and ultimately benefit yourself is quite satisfying.

Zhu Shizhen glanced at Zhu Linxiao and slowly said, ”Thirty drops of All Heaven Star Dew, one piece of Space Treasure Material, and two pieces of Thunder Series Treasure Material. This is the lowest price.”

”Impossible, I can’t provide that!”

Liu Xi shook his head again, ”Ten drops of All Heaven Star Dew, one piece of Space Treasure Material. This is the best exchange rate I can offer!”

”Bang!”

The next moment, Zhu Linxiao slapped the table and directly said to Yutang King Zhu Shizhen, ”Shizhen, it’s already hit this price, what are you waiting for! Go to the Heaven-Reaching Tower at the Dao Palace, directly put the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner for auction.

By then, even if it’s sold cheap, it can fetch two or three types of Treasure Material.”

Upon hearing this, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen nodded vigorously, ”Right, just simply say that this is the Top-Grade Suppression Artifact crafted by Xiji Star Monarch to assist in Dao affirmation, which can increase the probability by one-tenth during True Monarch affirmation.

By then, bidders will surely flock in.”

Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi’s expression changed, but he still calmly said, ”Prince, it’s meaningless for you to act as a duo! If the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner is used by someone else, its power will surely drop by one or two levels.

How about this, ten drops of All Heaven Star Dew, one Space Treasure Material, one Thunder Series Treasure Material, this is my highest offer.”

”At least thirty drops of All Heaven Star Dew!” Zhu Linxiao demanded.

After another round of bargaining, the final transaction price was set at twenty drops of All Heaven Star Dew, one Space Treasure Material, and one Thunder Series Treasure Material.

To be honest, this price exceeded Xu Jin’s expectations.

Xu Jin previously expected just one Treasure Material and around twenty drops of All Heaven Star Dew.

As Liu Xi said, if the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner ended up in the hands of other Star Lords, its value would be greatly reduced.

Unexpectedly, they managed to obtain two types of Treasure Material.

This shows Liu Xi’s emphasis on the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner.

”Prince, this will require preparation time, I need five to ten days to collect Treasure Material, sell and gather All Heaven Star Dew, and then come back to trade with you.” said Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi.

”You’d better hurry up!”

Yutang King Zhu Shizhen lazily gestured with his hand, ”This news is known to all parties now, if someone is willing to offer a higher price, our Yutang True Monarch Mansion has no reason to refuse.”

”I will hurry up!”

After speaking, Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi turned and left.

Right as Xiji Star Monarch Liu Xi left Yutang True Monarch Mansion, the secret report about his visit was delivered to Prince Bixuan’s desk, and shortly after, Lu Changyan himself delivered it to the Bixuan True Monarch.

It’s not that he didn’t dare to make decisions.

But this matter is too significant.

If Xiji Star Monarch really..., then the impact could be...

Bixuan True Monarch looked at the secret report, his eyes lowered, and after a while, he softly asked, ”Do we know what he went there for?”

”Ancestor, it has already been discovered that he went to Yutang True Monarch Mansion to redeem his Top-Grade Suppression Artifact, West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner.” Prince Bixuan replied.

”Oh, you managed to figure out the purpose so quickly?” Bixuan True Monarch seemed somewhat surprised.

”Ancestor, this information leaked from within Xiji Star Monarch Mansion. I feel that Liu Xi released the information actively himself, fearing we would misunderstand,” explained Prince Bixuan.

”Redeem...”

Hearing this, Bixuan True Monarch smiled and shook his head, ”You don’t need to concern yourself with this matter, no, just continue to have someone keep an eye on it.

Once Liu Xi successfully redeems, find out the specific transaction price and then send over half the redemption fee.”

”Ancestor, what do you mean?” Prince Bixuan was somewhat puzzled.

”After all, this item was lost under our Lu Family’s reign. Since he couldn’t wait and we can’t just sit idly, covering half of the redemption cost is a token gesture, or else it’ll only invite ridicule.” the Bixuan True Monarch explained.

”Ancestor, you’re magnanimous, your grandson remembers.” replied Prince Bixuan.

Upon hearing this, Bixuan True Monarch silently waved his hand, and after Prince Bixuan Lu Changyan left, his expression suddenly turned grim.

”When you don’t even have this bit of patience, how can I believe you will have enough patience to assist my Lu Family descendants in the future?

When not a True Monarch, you’re like this.

If you become a True Monarch, you’re likely to become the gravedigger of the Lu Family.

It seems I not only cannot help you affirm True Monarch.

But also before I pass, I need to eliminate you, otherwise, you’ll only become a major threat to the Lu Family...”

*****

At Xiji Star Monarch Mansion, after Star Lord Liu Xi returned, he began issuing one command after another, while gazing at the direction of Bixuan True Monarch Mansion in contemplation.

His actions today will inevitably stir the suspicion of Bixuan True Monarch.

However, he understands very well that he has run out of options.

Having followed Bixuan True Monarch Mansion’s lead, he was the first to wield the meat-cleaving knife towards Yutang True Monarch Mansion, serving faithfully for sixty to seventy years, yet the promise Bixuan True Monarch made to assist him in affirming True Monarch moves further and further away from him.

Over all those years, he came to completely understand Bixuan True Monarch.

If Bixuan Lu Family prospers, naturally they will help him break through.

If Lu Family weakens, their power declines, certainly they will delay.

He can only save himself!

As long as he has the West Wind Chaotic Sky Banner in hand, and prepares for a few more years, even without Bixuan True Monarch’s assistance, he can have a thirty percent chance of affirming Dao.

”What you hold in your own hands is the opportunity.

Waiting for others to give it, it’s charity, which is also a weakness...”

In the great hall of Yutang Royal Mansion, Xu Jin was chatting with Yutang King Zhu Shizhen.

”Prince, actually now, the Heaven and Earth Authority controlled by the Royal Mansion in various Small World Star Domains, there’s no need to keep much back home.
