Chapter 604 - Empty the Vault (1/2)

Quong Ting teared up after being scolded by her father. She felt aggrieved after all that had happened to her.

Quong Po realized he had been too harsh and quickly explained in a softer tone, “The color of the runic equipment comes from the chemical used to dissolve the beast material. In contrast, the tesseract would break down the material directly without any additives. This is truly an advanced technology that we have not seen before. I have to admit that this is very useful to a master of concealed weapons like me.”

Quong Ting still felt dejected after listening to her father’s explanation but decided to swallow her emotions.

Quong Po then turned back to Qin Feng and said, “Qin Feng, this tesseract is very important to me. Are you willing to sell it to me?”

Qin Feng frowned and replied, “This is equally vital to me too, Master Quong.”

Quong Po was baffled. From his perspective, Qin Feng did not really need the tesseract. But that was only because he did not know how fast Qin Feng had and would evolve.

To keep up with his ever-growing strength, Qin Feng needed the tesseract to further hone his Verdant Emperor Saber as well as other equipment. Though at the moment he had yet to fully utilize the tesseract, it was not an item he would sell off easily.

“Master Quong, the reason I am showing this is not that I want to offer it to you. I am just letting you know that such a thing exists and would probably suit your needs,” Qin Feng said.

“My apologies. You would be of great help if you are willing to help me make customized knives. Please, this is very important to me. Maybe we can come to an agreement? What’s your price?”

Since Qin Feng did not wish to sell it, Quong Po could only propose a trade for the products.

But Quong Po did not know what the suitable price to offer was. This market was completely in Qin Feng’s grasp.

Qin Feng thought about it and said, “I don’t wish to take advantage of you but if I charge you too little, then you might feel like you are owing me a favor. Let’s settle on the market price—20% of the price of the materials used.”

This price had been fixed for a long time. A G-tier beast king material in Wanzhong auction would cost 5 million while turning it into a weapon would cost another 1 million.

It now depended on what grade of weapon Quong Po wanted to make.

Quong Po laughed and said, “That’s fair. I think you have already been too generous.”

Qin Feng smiled. “Mr. Quong, you better give it careful thought. These new knives are going to be your weapon for the rest of your life, and they come without any apparent weaknesses. It would be a waste if you go back to C-tier materials.”

Quong Po realized he had an important decision to make.

Indeed, it would be best to use the finest materials if his knives would have no risk of being taken away by his enemy. After reaching B7-tier, Quong Po’s vision had widened a lot too.

Most apt.i.tude users wished to use equipment made from materials under the same tier. However, it was easier said than done. This was because it was usually difficult for an apt.i.tude user to defeat a beast king from the same tier.

“You are right.” Quong Po had clearly made up his mind. He then said, “It’s already quite late. Allow me to invite you two to have dinner with me. As for the tesseract, we will get to it tomorrow.”

“Sure!”

After dinner, Qin Feng and Bai Li returned to the hotel.

Qin Feng took out the fruit given by Quong Po. Though Bai Li refused to take it, he insisted and pushed the fruit into her mouth. He took the other one and realized it tasted bitter and was hard to swallow.
