C36 (1/2)

In the central market of Hong Huang City, Di Chen was walking leisurely. He was tired from cultivation and the food in the inn was a little simple. He came out to change the taste, but his main goal was to buy some beast cores to replenish his energy.

The streets were crowded as carriages and horses passed by. The place was bustling with noise and excitement as Di Chen browsed through the beautiful scenery for a while and appreciated the beauty of the place. Then, he headed towards the place where the demon cores were sold.

Gather in all directions! What a magical name! Di Chen decided to take a look inside.

”Young master, welcome to our store. If you need anything, feel free to tell us. If there are none in the front counter, we'll go check the warehouse at the back.” The moment Di Chen stepped into the shop, a smiling young man came over and greeted him. It seemed to be the waiter.

”That's right. If I can gather everyone here, I think you should have something that I need. I'll just take a look around.” Di Chen did not even look at the waiter and said. As he spoke, he scanned the shop's counter. He wasn't satisfied with anything. They were all low-level beasts' demon cores that weren't of much use to him.

”How is it, young master? Are you satisfied?” The waiter followed behind Di Chen and asked carefully.

”Nothing much. Just thinking about how all the shops in this majestic Imperial City are filled with low-grade Demonic Cores is really puzzling!” Di Chen paced, he could not help but exclaim.

In the corner, a silver-haired old man raised his head, glanced at Di Chen, and continued to write. He squeezed out a few words: ”Young man, don't you dare spout such arrogant words, I can't see anything from your cultivation, wouldn't it be a waste to have such a precious thing?!”

Di Chen frowned, thinking that the old man was undoubtedly the boss, he said: ”Old man, words are not like that, as the saying goes, a person cannot judge a book by its cover, and sea water cannot be used to fight. Moreover, what does my cultivation level have to do with what I want to buy? Can't I buy it for someone else to use? ” Di Chen's words were neither soft nor hard, it made people very uncomfortable.

The old man did not look up and continued writing. He instructed the waiter, ”Since the seventh stage demonic beast's Demonic Cores on the counter do not enter the young master's eyes, the young servant will bring the young master to the warehouse and let the young master choose!”

”Yes sir!” The waiter bowed towards the old man, then made a gesture of invitation towards Di Chen and said, ”Young Noble, please!”

Hearing the old man's words, Di Chen thought, as expected, there was goods in the shop, it was not that he did not fancy the Spirit Demon Cores of the demonic beast s of the seventh step, but he thought that the shops in the imperial city definitely did not have just a mere Spirit Demon Core of the seventh step or below.

There were many shelves inside the warehouse, on top of them were many rare and expensive demonic beast demon cores. Of course, there were fur saying that they were warehouses, but in fact, it was similar to the layout of the shops outside, but every piece of furniture was a lot more advanced, and it seemed like they were specially prepared for the rich buyers.

”Young master, take a look around and see if there's anything you need.” After entering the warehouse, the waiter said very politely.

Although Di Chen was surprised that his boss would not be able to gather so many treasures without a considerable amount of wealth, he was still calm. He carefully looked at each and every treasure on the shelves and was extremely happy in his heart, but he didn't know what he should choose.

Suddenly, a purplish blue light shone into Di Chen's eyes. The faint blue light was very alluring, as if it had discovered its own master.

Billions of Fire Wolves! Di Chen almost surrendered, but because he spoke so loudly in front and the waiter was still by his side, he calmed himself down and did not make a sound.

Although Di Chen had just learned a few martial arts, he still had some understanding towards the hundreds of millions of Fire Wolves, especially since this was the Demon Core of a Myriad Colored Fire Wolf, it was very rare. It seemed that he would be lucky this time around.

”Young master, if you like, you can take the demon cores of the hundreds of millions of Fire Wolves.” The waiter said with a smile.

”Alright, how much is this?” Di Chen pretended to be calm and asked.

”This one thousand silver medallion is enough.” The waiter replied, maintaining a smiling expression.

”Alright, I'll buy it. Pack it up well for me!” Without hesitation, Di Chen took out a note from his waist that was worth a thousand gold and handed it to the waiter.

After putting away the treasures, Di Chen followed the waiter to the front counter.

The silver-haired, silver-bearded old man saw the two of them coming out from behind, he asked Di Chen with a straight face: ”How is it, is Young Noble satisfied?”

Although Di Chen was overjoyed, he did not show it on the surface. He only said very calmly, ”It's good that you did not disappoint me. Di Chen understood that there were still a lot of treasures in the warehouse, but he wouldn't be able to afford the prices of those things right now.

”En, if you need anything else then come to my place, don't think too highly of the money, this is my personality, those who know treasures can have no money, those who don't know treasures can have a lot of money, and those who don't know treasures can have a lot of money!” The silver-haired, silver-bearded elder said. This time, he finally raised his head, and the disdainful expression on his face towards Di Chen lessened by a lot.

”Alright, I will remember this later. Farewell!” As he was feeling overjoyed, Di Chen bowed to the old man and left the shop.

This old man was truly strange. A person who knew treasures could take none of them, and a person who didn't know treasures couldn't sell them at a high price! I'll try it some other day and see if you can live up to what you said. Di Chen thought as he walked, he was filled with curiosity about the old man.
