Chapter 84: Trading Treasures!
Ye Tian patted Xiao Zi's backside, signaling it not to worry. "Yue Ling, I apologize. It has already recognized me as its master," Ye Tian said.
Yue Ling smiled, "Ownership can be revoked, and my Yue family knows how to do so. If you're willing to sell, that's not an issue at all."
Clearly, she hadn't given up on buying Xiao Zi.
"I'm not selling," Ye Tian flatly refused.
What a joke! Was he to sell Xiao Zi for a mere 200 billion? Forget about anything else, the treasures Xiao Zi had found for him in the mystical land alone were worth far more than 200 billion. Take the Qi Stones, for instance. One stone was worth 1 billion, and with 2,200 Qi Stones, their total value reached 2.2 trillion. 200 billion was merely chump change compared to that.
As far as Ye Tian was concerned, 200 billion was trifling. Moreover, he didn't think Xiao Zi was worth just 200 billion. Xiao Zi had a high-level treasure-seeking talent. Ordinary purple-gold treasure mice had at best beginner or mid treasure-seeking abilities. A beginner-level purple-gold treasure mouse with a top-tier bloodline might even be worth more than 200 billion. Xiao Zi's value, which combined a high-level treasure-seeking talent and a top-tier bloodline, was absolutely incalculable.
If Ye Tian had sold Xiao Zi, that would have been truly foolish! Even if he were to give it to his sister in the future, that would still be better than selling it. He wouldn't let a good thing go cheaply.
Seeing Ye Tian truly had no intention of selling, Yue Ling finally gave up on the idea of buying Xiao Zi. "Ye Tian, be careful. The purple-gold treasure mouse is extremely valuable. Perhaps no one would dare to rob you in the Mo Hai Base, but if you leave, you might find yourself targeted," Yue Ling warned.
"I understand," Ye Tian nodded. But he was not worried.
He had acquired a massive number of treasures this time and had no plans to leave Mo Hai Base anytime soon. And given some time, his rate of growth would far exceed anyone's expectations. By the time he did leave the Mo Hai Base, anyone harboring thoughts of stealing Xiao Zi would be utterly despairing.
"Master, you're so good to me, not selling Xiao Zi. Xiao Zi will definitely work hard to make you 200 billion in the future!" Xiao Zi, naive as it was, only knew that the figure 200 billion was massive. It had no concept of the value of that sum, let alone that the treasures it had found were worth far more.
If it knew, it would have definitely given Yue Ling a super disdainful look. A measly 200 billion to buy it, Xiao Zi? Xiao Zi wasn't that cheap!
The senior warriors of the Yue family returned one by one. By the time the spatial rift was about to close, only six had returned, including Yue Ling.
"The Yue family lost more than half of its senior warriors," Ye Tian mused to himself.
Fortunately, another top-tier talent of the Yue family had survived, so the losses weren't too significant.
In the sky, the spatial rift began to shrink rapidly. Even if Yun He Wang wanted to stop it, he couldn't, unless he was willing to risk his life to keep it open for another month. And he definitely wouldn't do that.
"1,000 senior warriors went in, but fewer than 300 came out," Yue Ling couldn't help but sigh.
Ye Tian remained silent, feeling the brutal nature of their adventure in the mystical land. If not for his top-tier healing talent and teleportation abilities, he would have likely died under the siege of wild beasts given his reckless treasure-collecting. This just showed how dangerous it was for other senior warriors. Being alive was already a stroke of luck.
"If the senior warriors in the Lin Hai Base knew that a single journey into the mystical land resulted in the loss of over 700 of their kind, they would surely be stunned," Ye Tian thought to himself.
After all, in a small place like Linhai Base, Grand Warriors were big shots. The fall of even one would cause a huge commotion. But in Demon Sea Base, Grand Warriors seemed as abundant as weeds. The deaths of many weren't worth shedding tears over, because if one batch died, another batch of elite warriors would rise to take their place.
"Let's go!" Yue Ben announced, seeing that the spatial rift had completely closed. There was no point in waiting any longer.
Even if warriors from the Yue family were still alive, they couldn't come out now. They would have to wait another ten years.
Boom!
The Wind-Controlled Ship soared into the sky, heading for Demon Sea Base. Ships from other families also flew off one by one. Soon enough, the vast mountain range was devoid of human presence, and the fierce beasts quickly reclaimed the area.
The Yue family.
The Wind-Controlled Ship descended, and Ye Tian landed on the ground.
"Ye Tian, the treasures you obtained in the secret realm are yours to keep. But if there are some you don't need, would you be willing to trade them to the Martial Pavilion?" Yue Ling inquired.
"Sure!" Ye Tian agreed.
He had been planning to trade some of the treasures anyway, as they were so numerous that he had filled his pocket space and two storage bags.
"Come, I'll take you to the Martial Pavilion!" Yue Ling led Ye Tian away from the Yue family residence, heading towards the nearby branch of the Martial Pavilion.
They arrived shortly.
"This Martial Pavilion is huge!" Ye Tian exclaimed silently as he looked at the 50-meter-tall ancient-styled edifice before him.
Compared to the Demon Sea Base's Martial Pavilion branch, the one in Linhai Base was downright shabby.
"There are ten branches like this in the entire Demon Sea Base, and the main tower of the Martial Pavilion is even more magnificent, rising up to 100 meters!" Yue Ling explained.
Entering the Martial Pavilion, Yue Ling personally arranged for Ye Tian to engage in trade. Under her arrangements, an experienced appraisal master assessed and valued Ye Tian's treasures.
"Young sir, please take out the treasures," the appraisal master requested.
Ye Tian took out his storage bag and began placing item after item on the appraisal table, quickly filling it up.
Yue Ling's pupils contracted as she looked at Ye Tian incredulously. These treasures were too numerous!
But she quickly understood. She thought about the Purple Gold Treasure Rat; in the natural treasury environment of the secret realm, having such a pet made finding various treasures incredibly easy.
"Young sir, are you really willing to trade all these treasures to our Martial Pavilion?" The appraisal master's emotions were somewhat agitated.
In his decades of service, this was the first time he had encountered such a large transaction.
"Yes, all of it," Ye Tian calmly confirmed.
The quantity of these treasures might seem large, but they constituted only a tenth of his total haul. Moreover, these were relatively average in value; he hadn't brought out the real goodies.
Due to the high value of the traded treasures, Yue Ling called in several other appraisal masters, even attracting the attention of a high-level executive from the Martial Pavilion who personally appraised Ye Tian's treasures.
Half a day later.
The Martial Pavilion executive spoke, "Young Master Ye Tian, the total value of these treasures is 32.14 billion. We from the Martial Pavilion are willing to purchase them for 32.5 billion and also offer you a VIP card, which gives you a 5% discount on future purchases here. What do you say?"
"That works. 32.5 billion it is!" Ye Tian nodded, quite satisfied.
