Chapter 2502 — Trading for a Treasure
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Please, have a seat. You want to trade for the blood of an earth-element Heaven-rank spirit beast?" The Heaven-rank cultivator pointed toward the sofa and got straight to the point. As a Heaven-rank expert, he naturally had nothing to fear from Wei Zhao and Han Xiaohu. Only a handful of Heaven-rank experts had come to this exchange, and he knew all of them.
"That's right." Wei Zhao nodded and sat down on the sofa with Han Xiaohu.
"Help yourselves to some tea." The Heaven-rank expert gestured toward the tea set on the coffee table, showing no intention of pouring it for Wei Zhao and Han Xiaohu himself. Then again, he was a Heaven-rank expert, and it was only natural for him to carry himself with an air of superiority. "Since you have come, I assume you know my terms. I only want to trade for something from a water-element Heaven-rank spirit beast."
The Heaven-rank cultivator had not recognized Wei Zhao and Han Xiaohu as the two people who had been with Yang Qiqi earlier that day. His attention had been focused entirely on Yang Qiqi, and he had not formed much of an impression of the other two. After all, many cultivators had come and gone to examine his goods, and he could not possibly remember every one of them. Only Yang Qiqi, who had shown an interest in trading, had left any impression on him.
"That's right." Wei Zhao nodded again. "But you are offering the blood of an earth-element Heaven-rank spirit beast in exchange for something from a water-element Heaven-rank spirit beast. It may look like an equal trade, but you are the one who needs something from someone else. Shouldn't you be offering a little more?"
"Heh. Since you came to me to make this trade, the blood of an earth-element Heaven-rank spirit beast must be useful to you as well, right? How can you say that I am the one who needs something from you?" The Heaven-rank cultivator was no fool. He chuckled and answered directly.
"To be frank, I am only at the peak of the mid Earth rank, while my friend is at the early Earth rank. One of us is a fire-element cultivator, and the other is a wood-element cultivator." As he spoke, Wei Zhao casually unleashed the first form of the Raging Fire Fist to prove his words.
Han Xiaohu naturally cooperated by unleashing a wood-element martial technique of his own, confirming what Wei Zhao had said.
"Hmm..." Seeing the attributes of their cultivation arts and the strength of the two men, the Heaven-rank cultivator fell silent. Wei Zhao was right. The blood of an earth-element Heaven-rank spirit beast really was of little use to either of them.
"Let me be honest. I am simply trying to profit from the situation." Wei Zhao said, "I have something from a water-element Heaven-rank spirit beast, but I do not need it and have no use for it. I came to trade with you because I want to get as much out of this deal as possible."
"What? You really have one?" The Heaven-rank cultivator abruptly rose to his feet and stared at Wei Zhao in delighted disbelief. He had been searching for something from a water-element Heaven-rank spirit beast for years. Naturally, hearing that Wei Zhao possessed such an item filled him with immeasurable joy.
"If I came all the way here and said all that, of course I have one." Wei Zhao smiled.
"I see..." The Heaven-rank cultivator slowly nodded. "Since you have made yourself perfectly clear and want to obtain greater benefits, I will not haggle with you over every little detail. Could I take a look at your goods first? As long as it is something I need, everything can be discussed!"
