Soaring of Galaxia

Chapter 433 A Great Harves

Manor Master Xiao knew that his initial price would never satisfy the appetite of the other party. Instantly, he gritted his teeth and roared: "Ok, you two name a price, if I can bear it, I will pay if even if I have sell everything!"

Qin Wushuang smiled and remained silent. Instead, he looked Manor Master Xiao up and down. He was not looking at him to mock him. Still, it was Qin Wushuang deliberately using his stares to destroy his psychological resistance. To slowly defeat his will utterly, he would reach the goal of maximizing his profit.

After having watched for a bit, slowly, the trace of a mischievous smile emerged on Qin Wushuang’s face: "Manor Master Xiao, you seem to be extremely unwilling for me to report to your Ringleader Zhou Guangshu."

Manor Master Xiao’s face was a suffocating red. He turned his head to evade Qin Wushuang’s sharp eyes, the look that seemed to pierce into his heart.

"Although I don’t know why you don’t want me to tell your Ringleader, I can see the fear in your eyes. How much is this fear of yours worth?" Qin Wushuang said with delight.

"You sure you want me to name a price?" Qin Wushuang asked leisurely again.

Manor Master Xiao turned his face and said with determination: "Just name it, if it’s within my ability, I will not speak a word of protest. Anyways, I admit total defeat."

"Great, a quick person speaks straightforwardly." Qin Wushuang extended one finger, "One thousand gold crystal stones, no bargain."

As soon as he spoke the words, both Hook and that Biao Zi could not help but hold back a light cry. Their expression had instantly darkened as if they had heard a hopelessness judgment.

The price of one thousand gold crystal stones had far surpassed the expectations within their heart. For your information, even if they were to bully some people, or do their usual dirty deeds, they would only receive some piecemeal reward. At the most, their pay would not exceed two hundred gold crystal stones.

After all, those who came to the Ironwood State City were not rich or generous. If the rich and upper-class people did come to the Ironwood State City, it would be either people they could not even afford to offend, or they would not even have the chance to approach them.

Thus, to Biao Zi and Hook, one thousand gold crystal stones was an unimaginable number.

That Manor Master Xiao was not shocked by this price. He stood there feeling dumbstruck. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth after a moment of hesitation: "Ok, one thousand gold crystal stones! Please allow me to collect it!"

Qin Wushuang shook his head: "No, you will leave when the money is here."

Manor Master said miserably: "This is a tremendous sum, I cannot pay it without collecting the money."

"This will need you to think about." Qin Wushuang said casually, "If you can’t bring it, Zhou Guangshu will be able to. It’s the same if I just ask him about it."

Hearing the name of the Ringleader, inwardly, Manor Master Xiao quivered. He looked at Hook and Biao Zi, then he said to Qin Wushuang: "Then send one of those two to see my wife. Let her collect one thousand gold crystal stones for me!"

Qin Wushuang looked at those two: "Which one of you are willing to go?"

Hook immediately volunteered: "I do."

Qin Wushuang said with a smile: "Ok, Third, go with him, don’t let him play any tricks."

Hearing that the other party was sending someone to escort him, he was immediately filled with disappointment. However, since he already volunteered himself, how could he dare to object. Without a choice, he nodded.

Yet, Manor Master Xiao called to Hook and instructed him: "Hook, do not tell the truth to my wife. Just tell her that I have lost at the casino and was detained by people. We need money for ransom. And take my keepsake with you, or else she would not believe you!"

Hook nodded in response: "I understand, Manor Master."

Regarding the life of Manor Master, regardless of this Hook, or his wife, they worked efficiently. Although one thousand crystal stones was a large sum to a State City. However, a Manor Master had accumulated his wealth through a lot of ways. His wealth was not something Hook and Biao Zi, such low-lives could imagine.

The unimaginable number in their eyes, were barely acceptable in the eyes of Manor Master Xiao. Although this thousand crystal stones would make him suffer heavily, it would not cost him all of his wealth.

Of course, it couldn’t be helped that the wife of the Manor Master would complain about becoming poor. She had shown that this thousand gold crystal stones had been collected through sacrificing everything they had.

Initially, Qin Wushuang had issued this price as he was prepared for the other party to bargain. Unexpectedly, the other party had agreed to it. Thus, despite not issuing an unreasonable price, he knew that the thousand gold crystal stones had not sucked the Manor Master dry. However, it did make him lose a large sum of wealth.

Instantly, he pulled back according to the situation and was happy to make a lot of money in secret. At the very least, after getting this thousand gold crystal stones, it would help them to solve their living expenses.

He knew deep down that since this Manor Master Xiao did not dare to alert Zhou Guangshu, the Ringleader of the Green Tree Gang, he would just suffer in silence. He would also not need to worry about payback from the Green Tree Gang.

Early morning on the next day, he gathered these three people when they were about to depart. With a smile, he said: "Manor Master Xiao, this time, thank you for being honorable and giving us the money. Next time, I hope to continue to receive your care if we come to the Ironwood State City again."

Manor Master Xiao showed a pale face as he knew that this time, he was lucky to have escaped death. He immediately said: "I would not dare, please don’t speak about it."

Bao Bao mocked him: "Don’t hold back. If you won’t do it, where can we make money. It’s not easy to find such easy to make money."

Manor Master Xiao only smiled bitterly, how could he dare to talk back? Indeed, he could only silently swallow all the mocking.

When they left the Ironwood State City, Bao Bao laughed as soon as he thought about this matter: "Boss, it’s so easy to make this money."

However, the Purple Flame Electric Beast complained: "Boss, you need to split half of that money. Last night when you guys were having fun teasing these three guys, I was so bored of standing on guard."

Qin Wushuang laughed: "Sorry to hear that."

Bao Bao said: "Boss’s money is our money. What need is there to split it?"

All three of them laughed with delight. Qin Wushuang opened the map and said after taking a look: "The Orderly Mountain prefecture spans about one hundred thousand miles. We are not in a rush to travel. We can travel as fast as five or six thousand miles a day, or as slow as three to four thousand a day. We will slow down when passing dangerously steep terrain. We shall move faster when passing by flat lands."

"Boss, even that little Ironwood State City has an elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage as their strongest. This Xuan Yuan Mound is truly not ordinary. However, I cannot understand that since there are Transformation Void Martial warriors, why didn’t he take further steps towards a larger stage, but instead, why would he stay in a tiny state city?"

Bao Bao was also a bit confused. In his opinion, those strong ones should climb towards a higher mountain. What could be accomplished by hiding in a little state city?

Qin Wushuang laughed: "You are still young and have the energy and ambition to challenge yourselves. Think about it, if that Tie Meng of the Ironwood State City is already a few hundred years old, would he still have that kind of ambition? Perhaps, he’s thinking more about how to consolidate his position at the little Ironwood State City and remaining unchallenged. He would want to maintain his superior position in this territory."

The Purple Flame Electric Beast approached them and said: "This is what they mean when each person has different ambitions. Some likes the challenge, some likes to be the bully or king in their own territory. Not to mention the humans, many beast clans also seem to enjoy this behaviour."

During their conversation, the three of them had already arrived before a canyon. Again, Qin Wushuang lay open the map and said to his friends after looking at it for a moment: "After passing this canyon and walking another two or three thousand miles, we will arrive at the Royal City of the Black Raven Territory. If we travel faster, most likely we will arrive before nightfall."

"Ha ha, Black Raven Royal City?" Bao Bao said with excitement, "Great, finally I can witness a higher-level city. Since a state city has an elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, then the royal city, which is a level higher, should have people at the Profound stage?"

"I am afraid there are." The Purple Flame Electric Beast gave a long sigh. After entering the Xuan Yuan Mound, even the competitive Purple Flame Electric Beast had to admit that this place was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Before they had walked tall and proudly in the human countries, now they must stay fully alert after entering the territory of the Xuan Yuan Mound.

Qin Wushuang sensed for a moment outside the canyon. He waved his hand after not sensing any abnormalities: "Stay alert when we go into this canyon, let’s go."

From left and right, Bao Bao and the Purple Flame Electric Beast surrounded Qin Wushuang and travelled at a rapid speed. This canyon had thousands twists and turns.

While these three were walking, a figure appeared from the mountain road ahead galloping at them at a swift speed. That person only seemed seventeen or eighteen years old and was carrying a person on their back. That person on his back appeared even younger and it was a little girl.

When this person saw three of them, he immediately halted and stared at Qin Wushuang with an alarmed expression. He grabbed a Hurricane combat Blade from his waist while talking to the girl on his back: "Little Sis, don’t look, I will take you out of here!"

He slashed two times into the air. Acting like a mad tiger, this young man yelled: "Come at me if you got the guts, you three bandits. I am not scared of you guys! Come, come!"

"Sure, could I be scared of you?" The Purple Flame Electric Beast was about to dash forward.

However, he got stopped by Qin Wushuang: "Second, don’t be impulsive."

The Purple Flame Electric Beast laughed: "This kid’s head is not clear, I just want to help him to clear his head and slap him."

Qin Wushuang said: "Junior Brother, we are just passing by and not your enemy. There is no ambush ahead. You should go quickly if you want to go."

That young man was stunned and said with an almost disbelief expression: "For sure you are not the accomplices of those dog-like bandits?"

"What dog-like bandits?" Bao Bao felt somewhat confused, "We are not some bandits, but sworn enemies to them."

That young man sized these three people up with a few glances and felt that these three seemed different than those unreasonable bandits. He squeezed out a smile at the moment: "Since you guys are not bandits, it was my fault. I apologize, you three."

After he had finished speaking, he put the Hurricane combat Blade back to his waist. Then, he lifted that girl on his back and started to run.

"Brother, slow down. Those dog bandits will not catch up to us here. You are injured, the injuries to your Dantian will worsen if you keep running."

That young girl cowered on the shoulder of that young man as she also had a pale face. Apparently, from her weak whimpers, her injuries were even more serious than that young man’s.

When Qin Wushuang saw this brother and sister, suddenly he remembered his teenage life and the care his sister had given to him. Wasn’t it exactly the same as how this young teenager was looking at his little sister? It was filled with care and love as he had viewed her as someone more important than his own life.

What he saw now had made Qin Wushuang feel somewhat familiar and warm.
