Chapter 2287 - 2286: Everything Goes Smoothly
"What, you all also..." Xiao Yuhui spoke.
Before she could finish, Xiao Yuran and the other four already understood that Xiao Yuhui must have also endured great humiliation.
"Damn Giant Spirit Sect!"
Xiao Yuran clenched her small fists tightly, her pretty face flushed red: "I never expected that the son of the Giant Spirit Sect Master would be such a lecherous scoundrel. If I hadn’t appeared in disguise today, I would have split him in two with a sword!!!"
The place she went to was the city where the Giant Spirit Sect was located.
Undoubtedly, everything Xiao Yuran experienced in the city of the Giant Spirit Sect was basically similar to what Xiao Yuhui faced.
As for Luoo Ning, Yun Qianqian, and even Nangong Yu, although their experiences might not be exactly like Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran’s, they certainly suffered intense humiliation; otherwise, why would they be so angry?
"Why don’t we talk to Su Han about this?" Nangong Yu said.
She was pure-hearted and didn’t think much, only wanting Su Han to appear and help them vent their anger.
But Xiao Yuhui replied: "No, Su Han is currently in seclusion, and we mustn’t disturb him."
"Right."
Luoo Ning also nodded: "Although we suffered great humiliation today, they will surely pay the price in the future. For now, we should focus on how to purchase the artifact refining materials. After all, Su Han is waiting to use them."
Besides Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran, even Luoo Ning and the others didn’t know that Su Han planned to refine an Immortal Artifact.
They only knew Su Han needed the artifact refining materials for a significant purpose.
"How can we buy them now?"
Xiao Yuran furrowed her brows: "Those bastards obviously don’t intend to sell the artifact refining materials to us. Otherwise, why would they treat us like that? Luckily, we didn’t bring much Spirit Crystal, otherwise, we would not only suffer this humiliation but also lose a lot of Spirit Crystals!"
"They will sell."
Xiao Yuhui mused: "When I previously went to the Immortal Sword Sect’s business shop, although there were many people there, most were just casually browsing since not everyone is an Artifact Refiner."
"Previously, our Phoenix Sect took so many Spirit Crystals from them, even the Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects must be feeling a sting."
"At this moment, during the millennia of peace, Spirit Crystals are needed, and these sects won’t pass up the chance to earn them."
Hearing this, Luoo Ning and the others secretly nodded, thinking she made sense.
"Sister, how can we make them sell the Spirit Crystals to us?" Xiao Yuran asked.
Xiao Yuhui thought for a moment and said: "We five will split into five paths."
"Luoo Ning, Qianqian, and Yu’er don’t need to go to these sects anymore, just go to those small forces and among the loose cultivators to purchase artifact refining materials."
"Although their stock isn’t comparable to that of Three Teachings, Nine Schools, and Seventy-Two Sects, there are many of them. If we can purchase them all, it’ll be a considerable amount."
"As for Yuran, you will come with me to continue going to these sects, but this time..."
Xiao Yuhui’s eyes flickered: "We need to ask Xiang’er and the Destruction Empress for help!"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuran’s eyes suddenly sparkled.
"Yes, we still have Xiang’er and the Destruction Empress!"
Xiao Yuran said delightedly, "With those two with us, even if those bastards don’t want to sell the artifact refining materials, they wouldn’t dare to humiliate us again!"
"Yes."
Xiao Yuhui nodded and then said to Luoo Ning and the others: "If those loose cultivators also resist, then you can increase the price by five percent, even ten percent above the original price. Right now, they need Spirit Crystals the most, and they don’t have much hatred with the Phoenix Sect. With this quantity, they should be willing to sell."
"Okay," Luoo Ning and the other three nodded.
"Sister, you are truly amazing!"
Xiao Yuran praised timely: "It’s fortunate Su Han has such a capable wife like you, otherwise, with just us, we might have started a fight already."
"You’re the one with the sweet words!"
Xiao Yuhui glared at her and then said: "Alright, let’s not waste time. Su Han has given us at most ten years; we can’t disappoint him."
...
Indeed, Xiao Yuhui’s prediction was correct.
Everyone felt that the Phoenix Sect extorted their Spirit Crystals, even the loose cultivators, and small forces believed this.
Although they entered the safety zone, the Extraterritorial Demons never attacked, ultimately blocked by the Four Great Dao Academies.
To them, it was a total waste of Spirit Crystals. If they had known earlier, wouldn’t they have waited?
Even entering the safety zone, it was almost useless!
So, when Luoo Ning and the others tried to buy artifact refining materials from them, though they didn’t humiliate them like the Immortal Sword Sect or Giant Spirit Sect, there was still strong resistance, unwilling to sell.
However...
They truly needed Spirit Crystals at this moment!
When Luoo Ning and the others raised the price for the artifact refining materials slightly, they couldn’t resist any longer.
As cultivators, having lived for so many years, they wouldn’t argue against their future.
If they don’t sell the refining materials now, they won’t have Spirit Crystals for cultivation. Not to mention being exhausted to death, when the Destruction Third Section arrives, they won’t be able to protect themselves!
Most importantly, they weren’t Artifact Refiners; having artifact refining materials on hand was practically useless, they might as well trade them for Spirit Crystals.
Thus, Luoo Ning and the others’ purchasing process went relatively smoothly.
...
Meanwhile, Xiao Yuran and Xiao Yuhui split into two paths, revisiting the Immortal Sword Sect and Giant Spirit Sect.
Seeing them arrive, the latter secretly sneered, initially thinking to mock them, but seeing the Destruction Empress and Seven-Colored Saint of Law, the words caught in their throats.
What a joke, with two Sub-Immortal Level powerhouses here, how dare they act rashly?
The Seven-Colored Saint of Law can force the Ancestor Emperor of Silver Sea to sever his own hands and feet!
The Destruction Empress, needless to say, has existed in the Lower-Class Star Region for countless years, paying no heed to anyone.
To these two, they have no concept of ’restraint,’ if offended, they might really strike and annihilate.
The Immortal Sword Sect’s Xiaoo Hailong and the son of the Giant Spirit Sect Master did not appear again.
The two shopkeepers wore a plastered smile on their faces.
As for the artifact refining materials...
They also sold them.
Not due to the coercion by the Destruction Empress or Seven-Colored Saint of Law, but because the Phoenix Sect offered a twenty percent higher price above the original!
Honestly, the inventory of materials in these sects was terrifyingly large.
If they couldn’t use it themselves, and others couldn’t offer such a price, why stubbornly resist the Phoenix Sect?
Even the greatest grudges must concede to profit.
Just like when Su Han didn’t want the Qing Emperor Sect to enter the safety zone but couldn’t resist the temptation of Spirit Crystals and gave them some slots.
