Chapter 3: Trading

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“What do you mean he rejected the deal? Is it too little?” Zhang Jianqiang could not believe it. Not to mention his Zhang family, he even felt that He Qingge had gotten a bargain by exchanging points from the Imperial Beast Peak for points from the Alchemy Peak.

If it was not for the fact that he needed to exchange for the Mystic Jade Spirit Bamboo unique to the Imperial Beast Peak, he would not even want the points of the Imperial Beast Peak.

“No, he’s thinking of using the points of the Imperial Beast Peak to exchange for a baby spirit beast at the Foundation Establishment stage,” Zhang Lingmu replied respectfully without adding any embellishments.

Zhang Jianqiang was the successor of one of the main branches of the Zhang family. He still had some brains. There was no need to do anything unnecessary. On the contrary, his younger brother, Zhang Jianchi, was ambitious and arrogant.

“Isn’t he afraid of losing his life to the spirit beast cub at the Foundation Establishment stage?”Zhang Jianqiang laughed.

“He’s determined.” Zhang Lingmu stated He Qingge’s conditions.

“10,000-year-old Black Tortoise, Sound-Gathering Butterfly, Dragon Scale Horse, Qilin Beast, Seven-Colored Bird, or any other spirit beasts with higher potential.” Zhang Jianchi mocked him, saying that He Qingge was crazy enough to think of any request.

“But you said that he can order the Golden Jade White Tiger in the Spirit Beast Garden?” Zhang Jianqiang narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little surprised.

“I can’t be sure if he can order it around. It’s considered self-protection,” Zhang Lingmu said honestly.

“That’s a spirit beast at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. What right does he have to be able to do that?”

“I heard that he has a very high affinity with spirit beasts. This is also the reason why he’s able to be the manager of the Spirit Beast Garden despite his low strength.”

“Alright, you go down first. I’ll think about it.” Zhang Jianqiang waved his hand.

Zhang Lingmu bowed and left.

“Big Brother, it’s not that there aren’t others who have an affinity with spirit beasts, but He Qingge’s affinity is too exaggerated. Furthermore, he only wants these spirit beasts.” Zhang Jianchi said as he got closer.

“Which immortal cultivator doesn’t have their own secrets?” Zhang Jianqiang did not care.

“But he was able to persevere and accumulate points for 20 years. That means that he had already made this plan 20 years ago. At that time, he was only six years old,” Zhang Jianchi reminded him in a low voice.

Zhang Jianqiang said, “I’ve checked his information. Ever since he entered the Imperial Beast Peak, he said that he liked spirit beasts. His spiritual roots and talent were limited. He had no chance to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. He had to exchange for a spirit beast with potential. Everyone in the same batch as him knew that it was not a big secret. With his potential and resources, the highest spirit beast he could exchange for was only a Foundation Establishment spirit beast cub.”

“Then, do you intend to agree with his conditions? These spirit beast cubs are not easy to find, especially the Dragon Scale Horse and Qilin Beast. It’s simply wishful thinking.” Zhang Jianchi frowned. “Besides, he’s only at the fourth level of the Qi Refinement Realm. Why should we spend so much effort? I have a thousand ways to make him hand over his points.”

Zhang Jianqiang looked at his younger brother. “Don’t rely on violence and our family background for everything. Otherwise, you’ll suffer sooner or later.”

“Big Brother, I know who I can and cannot offend.” Zhang Jianchi did not care. In his opinion, his brother was still not decisive enough. What qualifications did a fourth-level Qi Refinement disciple have to negotiate with them?

“Alright, that’s all for now. I’ll prepare the baby spirit beast to exchange with him,” Zhang Jianqiang said sternly.

“What kind of baby spirit beast are you going to give him?”

“Of course, the cheapest one. We can’t possibly find a Qilin Beast for him.”

“You mean the Sound-Gathering Butterfly?”

“Yes.”

“But we don’t have a Sound-Gathering Butterfly!”

“Xuan Yin Peak has it. I can find someone to exchange for it.”

“Brother, not only is this a waste of favors, but the cost is also huge. It’s not worth it! Why don’t you let me do it? I’ll definitely make him hand over the points.”

“He has a good affinity with spirit beasts. Who knows if anyone on the Imperial Beast Peak is paying attention to him? Don’t do anything unnecessary. Moreover, the Sound-Gathering Butterfly isn’t anything rare. It’s not a waste of a favor.” Zhang Jianqiang frowned and scolded his younger brother.

“Alright then!” Zhang Jianchi left with a face full of unwillingness. He felt that his brother was too generous and too afraid of the consequences. He believed that He Qingge must have some shocking secret.

Otherwise, who could persist in not using their points for decades just to exchange for resources to increase their strength?

The opportunity to become immortal was hard to come by. How could he let it go? Besides, He Qingge’s strength, talent, and background were not worth mentioning. He could crush him with a single hand. What was there to worry about? His brother was just indecisive. How could he live forever like this?

“Sigh!” Zhang Jianqiang looked at his younger brother and knew that he did not take his words to heart. However, nothing should happen in the short term.

Besides, He Qingge did not have any powerful background, so he did not care.

“Zhang Lingmu, send someone to keep an eye on He Qingge. I want to know his daily schedule and work.” After Zhang Jianqiang came out, he saw Zhang Lingmu standing guard not far away.

“Yes, sir!” Zhang Lingmu lowered his old face, and his hidden smile appeared sinister. He knew that Second Young Master would definitely not let He Qingge off.

…

The next morning, the doorbell of the Spirit Beast Garden rang. When He Qingge opened the door, he saw a young master with a jade-like face. He was wearing a silk robe, and he could clearly feel the pressure coming off his body.

It was Zhang Jianqiang!

He Qingge had inquired about the Zhang family yesterday, so he naturally recognized the person in front of him. It seemed that the person who wanted to trade with him was this man.

“Senior, please come in.” He Qingge chuckled.

In the cultivation world, those who reached the top came first. Zhang Jianqiang looked younger than him, but his strength was far above He Qingge’s. Naturally, He Qingge had to address him as ‘Senior.’

Otherwise, the other party could nitpick if he wanted to.

“I think you already understand why I’m here, so I won’t say any more nonsense. This is the spirit beast egg of the Sound-Gathering Butterfly.”

Zhang Jianqiang’s expression was calm. A spirit beast egg that was flashing with spiritual light appeared in his hand.

He Qingge took a look.

[The egg of a Sound-Gathering Butterfly]

[Level: None]

[Likes: None]

[Potential: Level two low-grade (There’s a very small chance of entering the Foundation Establishment realm. After the Foundation Establishment realm, advancing further will be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.)]

[Description: It’ll take one month to hatch. It’s able to use Sound-Listening Grass and Spirit-Gathering Grass, and 1:1. Brew the spirit juice over a small fire to nourish the spirit egg. There’s a chance to increase potential and speed up birth.]

[Abilities—Hearing: It has extremely strong hearing. It can hear all sounds within a 1,000-meter radius and distinguish them clearly.]

[Spirit Gathering: It can gather the surrounding spiritual energy. It has a good affinity with spiritual energy.]

[Evolution: None]

He Qingge nodded in satisfaction. He valued the ability, Spirit Gathering, the most. After sharing the ability, he could increase his cultivation speed. “Alright, let’s go to the Merit Room to trade!”

There were no accidents during the transaction. With 8,000 points from the Imperial Beast Peak, he successfully obtained the spirit beast egg.

He Qingge finally felt at ease after such a smooth transaction. The door to his future path of immortality was opening. As long as he fused with the Sound-Gathering Butterfly, his talent would definitely increase, and his cultivation speed would greatly increase too.
