Chapter 82 - Im Coming Home (2/2)
Normally, a mountain couldn't fit inside a spatial ring due to limited size capacity, but the Meteor Ring was different. It had sufficient space to hold hundreds of these mountains.
They took to the skies and reached an open field sufficient enough to land the mountain. With a wave of his hand, the mountain formulated instantly in mid-air as if it was always there. It settled just a few inches from the ground and when it fell, the world trembled and the earth quaked. The ground cracked continuously until the mountain was properly settled.
Seeing this, Yan Zaizen prepared to leave. After the celebration at the Heavenly Heart, he intended to immediately use the spatial platform. He was truly impatient. However, he was stopped once more.
”Sir, the Dilong Skyship. I hope you can sell it to me.” She requested once more. Initially, Yan Zaizen was surprised and unwilling. However, after some contemplation, it made little sense to keep the skyship. Typically, every skyship needed a special qi-method to operate the myriad of formations. This was something he didn't possess, nor did he believe that the Imperial Palace would give it to him. At most, they would probably trade for it.
That being said, it meant the skyship was essentially a hunk of metal.
To him it was useless, but perhaps to Xinya or others in Sky Heart City, it could be used.
Tao responded with his price declaration, ”Five hundred million.” This might actually be considered low-balling it, but the skyship was essentially useless without the proper method, and they didn't have it. Tao was aware and thus didn't try to place the price too high.
Gaining even a single drop would be better than letting it sit there pointlessly, not to mention it was far too hot to sell. It would be like placing a target on your back from the Imperial Palace.
Xinya displayed her readiness once more, throwing yet another spatial ring at Tao. The exchange was incredibly swift and smooth, and the skyship shifted hands.
Yan Zaizen was quite satisfied with all this. In just a single day, he gained two billion in wealth, not to mention his previous gains which were nearing three billion. He truly was so rich that he spat gold at this point.
Xinya left promptly, but not before Yan Zaizen informed her of his desire to use the spatial platform. Surprisingly, she easily agreed to this request, and for free no less. This made everything much easier. He truly liked how Xinya handled matters. If she wished to appease him, then this was a great way to do so.
Today, he celebrates. Tomorrow, he's off.
”Sufficient power enables all things.” Yan Zaizen softly muttered to himself in realization. Considering that he crippled a member of her city without mercy, humiliating her by undermining her authority and extorting a vast quantity of wealth, she still was attempting to form a relationship with him. It truly widens one's horizons.
”Our gains are extraordinary this time,” Tao commented at the side.
Yan Zaizen chuckled, ”Not to mention, I only sold the things I took. No real effort on my part.” Indeed. Yan Zaizen sold things that weren't even his to begin with and extorted money for an offense.
”Alright, let's go to the Heavenly Heart! Let's celebrate! Haha!” He was in an exceptionally good mood at the moment. He made a ton of money, got free access to the spatial platform, and his cultivation base was higher than ever. Everything was looking up and home was in sight.
The next day, they celebrated to their heart's content. Drinking, joking and eating delicious food. Tao revealed his drunken shamelessness, surprisingly he seemed to turn into quite the pervert after downing a few.
Some imperial scholar, huh?
What surprised them all was that Bai Lufeng was a crier and couldn't hold his liquor despite his thousands of years of existence. He whiningly cried in exquisite detail of how his father would beat him for being such a playboy during his youth. He even mentioned that he probably had fathered a lot of children, but because of his old, unfaithful ways, he didn't know where they were, how many there were, or even what they were doing.
To think Bai Lufeng was such a horndog and unfaithful father. Unfortunately, this happened quite often in the cultivation world, especially in Grux which is filled with ten times the population of Presba. At least Bai Lufeng wished he knew them and would love it if they found him. Even that was far better than many.
As for Yan Zaizen, he was astonished when he discovered that he couldn't get drunk. His blood and body were that of a Herculean, let alone getting drunk, even getting poisoned would be difficult. Despite this, Yan Zaizen couldn't help but joke around and engage with the others.
A laugh here, a pat on the back there, a whistle at a beauty here, and just enjoying the good food, wine, and company.
To Yan Zaizen and Tao who spent two years in the Deep Mines, this was a very much needed affair.
As the night ended and the sun was rising, Yan Zaizen was sitting calmly in his chair, staring at the ceiling as Bai Lufeng was unconscious, laying in a puddle of his own tears nearby. Tao had three women with barely anything covering their delicate bodies laying next to him on the floor. They looked comfortable and cozy, and he had the biggest smile imaginable.
”I miss you, Mother...Father…I promise, I'm coming home.” He softly muttered, his eyes glistening.
