Chapter 156: Humiliation (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
They went directly to the largest weapon store in the Imperial City, Tianming Weapons Store, which served all kinds of dazzling weapons.
Seeing the four come in, the store manager welcomed them all at once.
“My Greetings, my dear honored third Crown Princess, Master Zheng Xuan and Su Rong, Mr. Mo, welcome! What can I do for you?” The manager asked with a bright smile.
Mo Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the man, saying lightly, “I want magic weapons of water attributes.”
The man nodded and said immediately, “We have all kinds of magic weapons of water attributes in our store. Whether you want swords, guns, darts, or flying needles… We could serve you all.”
“Yiyi is uses swords,” said Mo Fei.
“There’re also numerous selections of magic star swords of water attributes in our store.” The manager then led them to one side, and dozens of magic star swords of water attributes were hanging on the wall, all at a price of tens of millions.
Mo Fei smiled coldly, “Sir, I think you are probably mistaken. We’re here for purchasing some high-end goods, not garbage. Don’t use those level 3 or level 4 things to perfunctory us.”
The manager smiled awkwardly and apologized to them, “I’m so sorry. I’d been both blind and derelict. Please follow me upstairs.”
Those placed downstairs were all weapons at or below level 4, but the ones on upstairs were totally different. There were 30 to 40 weapons at level 5, but there were not many weapons at level 6. Mo Yi saw only three and each of them was quite expensive, among them, one happened to be a flying sword of water attributes they were looking for.
“What is the background of that sword?” Mo Yi pointed to a level 6 star sword hanging on the wall.
“It’s Heaven-made Blue Water Sword. Forged by the Senior Tianxin, a sword forger over 3,000 years old. This sword was once the companion weapon of the Fallen Rainbow Fairy, she once killed 681 enemies with the sword…”
“Cut the c.r.a.p, I want this one.” said Mo Yi.
The manager glanced at Mo Yi with embarra.s.sment. The sword was one of the treasures in the store, which had been hanging here for several years and had many salivating potential buyers. However, no one could afford the money yet.
“Mr. Mo Yi, in fact, with your current capability, you may have some trouble handling this sword.” The manager carefully measured his words.
Mo Yi took a glance at him and asked with a sneer, “Are you afraid I can’t have not enough star coins to pay you?”
The manager smiled awkwardly, “How come, you take me wrong.”
“Name a price.” Mo Yi looked determined.
After a pause, the manager continued, “The original price of this sword is 8.8 billion. If you really want it, I’ll give you an 8 billion offer.”
He looked at Mo Yi with nervousness after finis.h.i.+ng his words. Mo Yi looked as usual, making him unable to sense Mo Yi’s idea at all.
Mo Yi turned his eyes to Zheng Xuan and said coolly, “It’s your time to show your sincerity. Pay for me.”
Zheng Xuan sipped his lips with his face flushed. He only had 800 million in his account. He had always felt that 800 million was a lot. At that moment, he felt exactly as the old saying went: It was when you were in need of money that you wish you had more.
The manager noticed Zheng Xuan’s embarra.s.sment, but he did not know what to say.
Zheng Xuan was silent for a moment and suddenly turned to the manager, “Can I pay in installments?”
The manager froze, while Mo Yi laughed scornfully. He took out his star card, put it on the table and said, “Here. Swipe mine.”
Listening to Mo Yi’s hissing, Zheng Xuan only felt his heart was pierced at once.
The manager looked at the star card with Mo Yi’s picture on the table and said, “Mr. Mo Yi, that sword is 8 billion.”
“Rest a.s.sured, it’s enough.” Mo Yi said casually.
Looking at Mo Yi’s a.s.sured appearance, the manager’s heart was pounding. He had heard before that the Third Crown Princess was super rich, but he had not expected that even the entourage around him was also so wealthy.
The manager swiped 8 billion from Mo Yi’s card and secretly looked at the balance left. There was still more than 3 billion. He truly got a fright.
Men could not be judged by their looks, thought the manager.
He lifted the ban respectfully and handed the sword to Mo Yi.
Mo Yi rubbed the sword in his hand and looked at Zheng Xuan lightly with disdain from his eyes, “Zheng Xuan, you’d better know that I’m not like Xu Zihan. I’m much more greedy and demanding than he is. If you can’t meet my requirements, get out of here as soon as possible! You can’t support me.”
Zheng Xuan looked at Mo Yi, his face being deathly pale.
The manager kept silent, he took a careful look at Zheng Xuan who looked pale, s.h.i.+elding a sympathetic tear for Zheng Xuan in his heart.
Mo Yi sneered, took the sword and went out.
Mo Fei followed him and Su Rong quickly caught up.
Su Rong looked back from time to time and said, “Yiyi, he didn’t catch up.”
Mo Yi nodded, “He was right. If he dared to, wouldn’t it be a waste of my 8 billion to buy some second-hand goods?”
Su Rong, “…”
Mo Fei’s eyebrows knotted, “Yiyi, you spent 8 billion to drive him away, isn’t it a bit too expensive?”
Mo Yi sipped his lips, closed his eyes, and gnashed his teeth, “What can I do? I gave him a chance. He didn’t seize it himself. What can I do? Our previous predestination should have been long gone. It’s meaningless to pester.”
Su Rong took one last look back and sighed deeply in his heart. Suddenly there was a sad feeling rose from his heart, like the fox mourned the death of the hare.
