Chapter 1772: Spending All Savings

~7 min read 1,280 words

After everything was prepared, Steward Liao finally invited Xuan Yuan Ling to go with her to meet Ye Liuyun.

Upon entering the private room, Steward Liao introduced Ye Liuyun: "Young Master Ye, this is our steward, Miss Xuan Yuan Ling!"

Ye Liuyun immediately rose to greet and introduced himself: "Ye Liuyun!"

At the same time, he also sized up Xuan Yuan Ling.

He hadn't expected to meet Xuan Yuan Ling now, because of the eight subordinates of Xuan Yuan Yu, he hadn't killed a single one.

"Young Master Ye, no need to be formal, have a seat and chat!"

Xuan Yuan Ling was quite natural and didn't bring up the matter of meeting him.

Ye Liuyun also said nothing and sat down again.

"Young Master Ye, you're not from Royal City, are you?

I haven't seen you before, have I?

I don't know where Young Master Ye holds a position?"

Xuan Yuan Ling knowingly asked.

"I have just arrived at Royal City and am currently staying in the Royal Mansion.

However, I'm not some important figure; I'm merely a Martial Cultivator participating in the Alien Battlefield selection!"

Ye Liuyun said truthfully.

But after his Heaven and Earth Power is amplified, every word, every gesture of his feels especially amiable.

If he becomes angry, the Heaven and Earth Power also augments, making people feel even more fearful.

Steward Liao heard this and his jaw nearly dropped! He hadn't expected that Ye Liuyun was merely a Martial Cultivator in the Alien Battlefield selection.

To him, those are death soldiers, desperados who would risk their lives for a few resources.

Given Ye Liuyun's demeanor and wealth before him, he couldn't associate him with such people at all.

He couldn't understand why a man as rich as Ye Liuyun would go to the Alien Battlefield and risk his life.

Xuan Yuan Ling, seeing that Ye Liuyun didn't brag about his status, couldn't help but smile.

She was already a famed beauty of Royal City, and this smile was truly nation‑shaking.

But Ye Liuyun showed no significant reaction.

He has seen many beauties, and his own women are all fine, so he has enough resistance to beauties.

He simply asked, "Miss Xuan Yuan, what does this smile mean?"

Xuan Yuan Ling immediately explained, "I just think Young Master Ye is too modest! A Martial Cultivator in the Alien Battlefield selection, able to produce a hundred billion Crystal Stones?"

"What I say is the truth.

There's always an exception, after all!"

Ye Liuyun simply said calmly.

"Very well, then I'll wait to see Young Master Ye create an exception!"

Xuan Yuan Ling also said.

Her words were indeed hinting that Ye Liuyun could slay the Eight Great Vajras.

Ye Liuyun understood, but only nodded and did not continue the topic.

He explained, "The reason I'm buying so many items is that my squad truly urgently needs them.

It's not because I'm coveting the discount Xuan Yuan Lou gives me.

If Miss Xuan Yuan Ling finds it inconvenient, I can purchase these items at full price."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Ling realized Ye Liuyun was worried about taking advantage of Xuan Yuan Lou's discount, and she smiled again.

She explained to Ye Liuyun, "Young Master Ye, don't misunderstand.

I came to see you because you are considered a distinguished guest of Xuan Yuan Lou; after a transaction of such a large amount, I wanted to get to know you, with no other intent.

As for your discounted gold card, since Xuan Yuan Lou promised it, we will honor it.

Moreover, the acquisition cost of some of our items is very low, so overall we won't lose much!

Anyone holding a gold card is a benefactor of Xuan Yuan Lou.

Xuan Yuan Lou naturally will not betray its benefactors.

Don't say you only bought this much.

Even if you bought out Xuan Yuan Lou, we would never even raise an eyebrow!"

Ye Liuyun hadn't expected that after saving Xuan Yuan Hong's life, there would be this benefit.

He had run a merchant guild before, knew the guild's costs—essentially half‑price—so Xuan Yuan Lou selling him goods certainly makes no profit, and the storage, maintenance, and transport fees are also not earned from him.

"Then thank you, Miss Xuan Yuan! I still need to trouble you to quote a price for the items I need!"

Ye Liuyun clasped his hands and said.

Xuan Yuan Ling immediately had Steward Liao give a quotation.

Ye Liuyun examined all the items and felt very satisfied.

The other normally sold items were all at regular prices.

For Thunder Pearl, she priced it at three billion Divine Crystals for Ye Liuyun.

For such a celestial treasure, this price isn't expensive, especially since Ye Liuyun can buy it at half price.

If auctioned, they could fetch at least five billion Divine Crystals.

As for the unsold Demon Thunder, she only charged Ye Liuyun one billion Divine Crystals.

A normal fourth‑rank treasure costs at least twenty billion even at cost.

Dragon Pearl, Dragon Horn, fifth‑rank Barbarian Ox leather shield, fourth‑rank vase, ten‑thousand‑year Mystic Ice, Demon Race relics, and third‑rank Sky‑Breaking Pill formula and herbs—combined, even at half price, exceed one hundred fifty billion Divine Crystals.

Ye Liuyun also hadn't expected that a fifth‑rank treasure would already cost hundreds of billions.

But he didn't hesitate either, knowing that if he didn't buy at this price, he wouldn't be able to purchase it elsewhere.

However, after paying the 150 billion Divine Crystals, there were hardly any Divine Crystals left in his Space World.

The Divine Crystals he had saved before were now almost gone.

Ye Liuyun thought to himself, "Reaching the Divine Realm in cultivation is truly exaggerated! So many resources, and they're all spent in the blink of an eye!"

Xuan Yuan Ling saw Ye Liuyun hand over the 150 billion Divine Crystals without hesitation and thought, "Looks like he really isn't short of money!"

But she was also curious whether Ye Liuyun bought those items for his own use.

The core attributes of these items already spanned more than five or six types.

"Young Master Ye, you bought these items for yourself, right?"

Xuan Yuan Ling couldn't help but ask.

"No, they're for my teammates!"

Ye Liuyun never bought things for himself in the first place.

Moreover, if he claimed he could use all of them, it would probably frighten others to death.

But Xuan Yuan Ling and Steward Liao were even more surprised.

"For your teammates?"

The two asked in unison.

It was the first time they had seen anyone willing to spend that many crystals for others.

And the spender was a Martial Cultivator teammate participating in the selection.

"Yes, none of these items are for me! Only this alchemy formula and the medicinal herbs are for my own pill‑refining!"

Ye Liuyun said exaggeratedly.

In fact, he had already distributed the items at this moment.

He gave the vase and the ten‑thousand‑year ice to Man Shu.

The dragon pearls and dragon horns, of course, went to Long Nv.

The Demon Race relics and Demon Thunder Bomb were for Lei Ming.

The Barbarian Ox leather shield was given to Ye Tiandao.

He kept only a single Shock Thunder Pearl for himself, to absorb and use together with his clone.

Indeed, none of them was solely for his own use.

"All bought for others?"

"150 billion Divine Crystals, bought just to give away?"

Xuan Yuan Ling and Steward Liao were both astonished!

Ye Liuyun merely smiled, gave no further explanation, and left after bidding farewell.

Otherwise, if they pressed about who the dragon pearls and dragon horns were for, he truly wouldn't have a good answer.
