The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

When Su Jingzhen heard this, he subconsciously glanced at Shuang Jiang beside him.

He knew that this time, they were buying auxiliary items for his body refinement, but he had no idea what specific items they needed.

And his biggest concern was still the financial issue.

Shuang Jiang spoke again: “I need the blood of the North Sea Dragon. I know you don’t have it here. How long would it take to transport it from another Treasure Gathering Pavilion, and what would be the price?”

As soon as Shuang Jiang said this, the room fell silent.

Feng Qingya sat up straight, her smile gradually freezing on her face.

“Master, are you joking with me?”

When Feng Qingya said this, her smile had already slightly faded.

Even Su Jingzhen could sense that the atmosphere in the small room had cooled down a few degrees.

Perhaps she thought Shuang Jiang was teasing her.

And indeed, the North Sea Dragon’s blood mentioned by Shuang Jiang was not an ordinary item.

Dragons, even if they were just dragon-like creatures, were mythical creatures in both the past and present.

However, Shuang Jiang still spoke calmly: “You just need to answer my question.”

At this time, Shuang Jiang’s voice was calm, but as soon as the words fell, Su Jingzhen suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He sensed that Shuang Jiang had a kind of ‘aura’ around her.

This ‘aura’ was extremely powerful, and he couldn’t tell what level of cultivator could possess it.

At this time, this ‘aura’ was clearly directed at Feng Qingya opposite her.

Feng Qingya’s face turned pale in an instant.

Her beautiful, fox-like eyes were filled with a hint of horror.

In less than ten breaths, Shuang Jiang withdrew the ‘aura’ she had released.

The cold voice sounded again: “Now, perhaps you can answer my question.”

Su Jingzhen clearly saw that when Shuang Jiang withdrew her ‘aura’, Feng Qingya’s forehead was already beaded with fine, fragrant sweat.

He was shocked again, extremely curious about Shuang Jiang’s abilities, and it seemed that he had only seen the tip of the iceberg.

At the same time, he felt relieved that Shuang Jiang was on his side.

And at this time, her overbearing demeanor was probably her true nature.

Su Jingzhen seemed to have seen the Shuang Jiang he met for the first time again.

Feng Qingya had completely suppressed the pride that was hidden in her heart.

Su Jingzhen might not know what Shuang Jiang’s ‘aura’ represented, but Feng Qingya was extremely clear about it.

“In response to your question, Master, the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in Linjiang City indeed does not have the North Sea Dragon’s blood you want.”

“This level of treasure is probably only available at the Yunmeng City branch.”

“I need to report back and then have them send it over. The fastest delivery time would be half a month.”

The way she addressed them had quietly changed.

“Treasure Gathering Pavilion must arrange for a corresponding level of cultivator to escort the treasure due to its high value,” Feng Qingya said, seemingly unaffected by Shuang Jiang’s lack of response. “The cost of production is also quite high, and one drop of North Sea Dragon’s blood might require one hundred high-grade spirit stones.”

“Of course, if we exchange goods, Treasure Gathering Pavilion is more than happy to do so,” she added.

Feng Qingya’s eyes sparkled at this.

Since she came to Linjiang City’s branch, customers who qualified to enter the second floor were few and far between. Almost no big deals had been made, and if this one succeeded, she might be able to leave this godforsaken Linjiang City.

Su Jingzhen, on the other hand, was on the verge of fainting.

One hundred high-grade spirit stones! He only had fifty low-grade spirit stones in his storage bag, and even if he added the unsold elixirs, it would only amount to less than two hundred low-grade spirit stones. To Su Jingzhen, this was a staggering sum.

One hundred high-grade spirit stones was an astronomical figure.

In the cultivation world, one hundred low-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for one mid-grade spirit stone, and one hundred mid-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for one high-grade spirit stone.

This meant that Su Jingzhen would need millions of low-grade spirit stones!

How many Qi-replenishing pills would he need to refine to earn that much?

Moreover, he had caught the key phrase in Feng Qingya’s words – one drop!

One hundred low-grade spirit stones could only buy one drop!

This was a massive shock to Su Jingzhen, who had always been at the bottom rung of the cultivation world.

The world of high-end players was beyond his comprehension.

At the same time, he was curious – with their current financial capabilities, where did Shuang Jiang get the confidence to buy this?

However, upon hearing the price, Shuang Jiang remained calm and even seemed dissatisfied, saying, “Is that too slow? Can it be delivered within three days if we expedite it?”

Feng Qingya’s expression turned dull again.

“Master, half a month is already the fastest we can do, and we need to confirm if Yunmeng City has stock. If Yunmeng City doesn’t have it, we’ll need to transport it from the Holy City, which will take even longer,” she said reluctantly.

As she spoke, Feng Qingya’s beautiful fantasy began to shatter.

The other party seemed to be in a hurry, and even Yunmeng City was too slow for them. If they had to transport it from the Holy City, why didn’t they just…

“Why not go to the Holy City yourself?” Su Jingzhen thought to himself. “That way, you’ll not only save time but also a lot of spirit stones.”

Before he could even finish his thought, Shuang Jiang spoke up again, “So, what auxiliary spiritual items do you have here for Body Cultivation?”

Shuang Jiang openly mentioned Body Cultivation, leaving Feng Qingya’s eyes wide with surprise. She hadn’t expected this mysterious strongman to want to buy the North Sea Dragon’s blood for Body Cultivation.

However, the North Sea Dragon’s blood was indeed a recognized sacred object for Body Cultivation.

Feng Qingya’s face turned slightly embarrassed as she said, “I apologize, Master, but in Linjiang City, there’s almost no existence of Body Cultivation, so the branch here has very few related items. We only have some Body Tempering Liquid, and it’ll take a day to deliver.”

Treasure Gathering Pavilion was indeed enormous, but not every branch had everything.

They basically stored items based on demand.

As soon as Shuang Jiang heard this, she stood up directly.

“Let’s go, we’ll come back tomorrow!” she said to Su Jingzhen.

Watching the two of them leave, Feng Qingya hurriedly asked, “How much Body Tempering Liquid do you need, Master? I’ll prepare accordingly.”

Shuang Jiang paused for a moment before responding, “We’ll take as much as you have.”

This kind of item was already in short supply in Linjiang City, and even if they did send some over, it wouldn’t be much.

As Feng Qingya watched Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang descend the stairs, her face was once again filled with doubt.

“Could it be that there really is a treasure on Clear Wind Mountain? Even someone of this level has been dispatched. It’s a pity that Linjiang City is too small, and we don’t have what we need. Otherwise, getting to know someone like this would be very beneficial for me.”

Thinking back to the ‘pressure’ Shuang Jiang had exerted on her earlier, Feng Qingya still felt a lingering sense of fear.
