Chapter 407: Another trade
Seeing the Heavenly Sun City Lord"s old face become black and began trembling, the muscles on his face almost fell off from trembling. Ye Tian Xie weakly asked, "How about adding another hundred gold coins!?"
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!!!"
Just like thunder clapping through the sky, Ye Tian Xie unconsciously covered his ears. The two guards outside the Heavenly Sun City Lord"s palace holding spears directly fainted.
"What do you treat father as!? An idiot anyone can trick!!"
Ye Tian Xie quickly stood up in the chair and moved back a few steps, quickly waving his hands and saying, "Sir City Lord, don"t be too excited. If you"re not satisfied, I can increase the price…..How about giving you the unique sheep"s pelt as compensation. If it"s still not enough….."
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!" The Heavenly Sun City Lord"s eyes were like copper bells and his face looked so scary that people"s souls flew out in fright, "You brat, you dare play a trick on father! Immediately give father the Rainbow Dusk, or else….."
"Even if you swallow me, you can"t take it back. The broken Rainbow Dusk you gave me already no longer exists." Ye Tian Xie said in a very unreserved voice.
"Bulls.h.i.t! What is in your hand then!" The Heavenly Sun City Lord pointed at the Rainbow Dusk in Ye Tian Xie"s hand as he roared out.
"Oh, this is the complete Rainbow Dusk, not the broken one you gave me. So….."
"Bulls.h.i.t! Stop wasting words, immediately give it back to me! Otherwise, I will break your bones. An old tiger is not afraid, do you think I"m seriously ill!!"
"…..Sir City Lord, you can"t do this, this is complete robbery! You are a city"s lord and if you do this, where will your faith, prestige, seriousness, and moral as a City Lord go!" Ye Tian Xie said in a righteous voice.
"Robbery? Rob your sister! Good….." The Heavenly Sun City Lord suppressed his anger and said, "The thing father gave you was indeed broken, but the Rainbow Dusk in your hand is the repaired Rainbow Dusk father gave you! Can you really say it doesn"t belong to father?"
Ye Tian Xie rubbed his nose and calmly said, "Sir City Lord, carefully think about this. If someone gave you a chicken egg one day and you worked hard on taking care of it…..Ke, ke, personally hatching the egg and raising a majestic rooster out of it, then having the person from before ask for your rooster back…..Would you give him a rooster? Or would you give him an egg?"
Heavenly Sun City Lord: "……"
"The egg from before has turned into a chicken and can"t be returned, wouldn"t you choose to give him the money for the egg? Un…..Sir City Lord, if you think like this, your heart will calm down…..Come, this is the egg"s…..Oh, no, this is the money for the broken Rainbow Dusk from before. We"ll settle it like this….I still have other matters, so I"ll be leaving first."
Placing the hundred gold coins on the table, Ye Tian Xie turned to leave.
"Come back now!!" The Heavenly Sun City Lord came forward and pulled Ye Tian Xie back. He said in a fierce voice, "Stop trying to trick father. Even if you can turn a t.u.r.d into a flower with words, don"t think you can leave with that "Rainbow Dusk" today!"
"This is robbery!" Ye Tian Xie turned and said with a serious voice.
"You…..Alright, this "Rainbow Dusk"s" dusk was indeed repaired by you. Give a price and then return it to me. If the "Rainbow Dusk" was just my item, it would be fine, but this was given to my Heavenly Sun City by the Xi Yao G.o.ddess in the past and it can"t be lost or given to others. Otherwise, it would be a great disrespect to the Xi Yao G.o.ddess! You must return this to me today!"
Ye Tian Xie turned around and looked at the Heavenly Sun City Lord as he softly said, "You have already told many times that the "Rainbow Dusk" is the divine item given to your Heavenly Sun City by the Xi Yao G.o.ddess…..You already know no mistakes can be made with it, otherwise it would be a great disrespect to the Xi Yao G.o.ddess…..Since you know this, then why did you allow it to break? When you allowed it to break, did you think that it was the divine item given to Heavenly Sun City by the Xi Yao G.o.ddess, or did you think of it as your own item! When have you ever placed the Xi Yao G.o.ddess in your eyes!!"
Ye Tian Xie"s sudden expression change and righteous words made the Heavenly Sun City Lord stunned. His anger was still there, but he couldn"t say a single word.
Ye Tian Xie"s words had pressed down right on his weak point!
Ye Tian Xie"s following words made his face turn completely green.
"It"s fine if you break it….but after that? If the "Rainbow Dusk" wasn"t broken, would Heavenly Sun City be in its current condition? It"s not exaggerated to say that Heavenly Sun City today is already in dire straits. It"s suffering from a disaster at all time that people cannot endure, even a person like me who has only been here a few times can"t endure it, not to mention the people who live here. Moreover, every time I came, I felt the temperature increasing. It could be seen that the heat is already slowly approaching a true disaster. You told me it was because of the Flame Sprites…..But haven"t you ever thought that if the "Rainbow Dusk" did not break, the Flame Sprites going wild wouldn"t have developed to this degree?" Ye Tian Xie"s eyes were very calm and he said in a very impolite voice, "In other words, you letting the "Rainbow Dusk" break is already a great offense to the Xi Yao G.o.ddess. The one who allowed Heavenly Sun City fall into this disaster…..is also you."
"Also….." Ye Tian Xie did not give the Heavenly Sun City Lord a chance to speak as he calmly said, "The "Rainbow Dusk" is after all a Mysterious G.o.d Equipment and after it was broken, one could not repair it at will. Has the current you really found a way to restore it…..If you haven"t, if you never found the way to restore the "Rainbow Dusk", what would Heavenly Sun City do…..Wouldn"t it be destroyed by your hands!"
The Heavenly Sun City Lord trembled. Ye Tian Xie"s words attacked his heart and he was instantly covered in cold sweat.
"No matter what, first return the "Rainbow Dusk" to me." The Heavenly Sun City Lord said. Ye Tian Xie"s words, he had nothing to dispute with and could not dispute. The words Ye Tian Xie said has always been the worry and fear kept deep in his heart. So, he was desperate to repair the "Rainbow Dusk", not even hesitating to give Ye Tian Xie the broken "Rainbow Dusk" in exchange for the sheep"s pelt that could catch the Red Sheep…..At this time, being heartlessly uncovered like this by Ye Tian Xie, he lost the strength even to speak.
The corners of Ye Tian Xie"s lips moved as he said, "Sir City Lord, this "Rainbow Dusk" was broken by you and repaired by me. If it could choose its owner, who do you think it would choose?"
"Even without you! I could restore it just the same!!" The Heavenly Sun City Lord roared.
"Oh…..The method you"re talking about, are you referring to this gourd?" Ye Tian Xie looked at him as he calmly took out the Seven Star Gourd.
"The Seven Star Gourd!" The Heavenly Sun City Lord took only a glance before he unconsciously shouted its name. Then he immediately thought of something and said, "So it was you….."
"That"s right, I was very lucky in catching the Red Sheep and then I used the Seven Star Lotus to restore the "Rainbow Dusk". As for the Red Sheep and Seven Star Gourd you obtained…..Ke, ke, they are perhaps just counterfeits." Ye Tian Xie said in a strange voice.
"You….."
"This also means….." Ye Tian Xie cut off the Heavenly Sun City Lord once again, "If it wasn"t for me, your "Rainbow Dusk" would never have been repaired. If it remained in your hands, it would have been a broken "Rainbow Dusk" without any powers. It"s useless in your hands and it can be repaired in my hands. Do you feel that me keeping it is really too much?"
The Heavenly Sun City Lord knit his brows. His expression filled with a trace of helplessness that made him unable to shout at Ye Tian Xie. He calmed his breath and said while shaking his head, "Although it was unintentional, this large mistake was all because of me, but the "Rainbow Dusk" belongs to the entire Heavenly Sun City. Even if it was broken forever, it must remain in Heavenly Sun City. Heavenly Sun City requires it right now, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. No matter what, you must first return the "Rainbow Dusk" to me. When I solve the problem my Heavenly Sun City is currently facing, I will naturally give you a reward that will satisfy you!"
Ye Tian Xie naturally never thought that the Heavenly Sun City Lord would give the "Rainbow Dusk" so easily to him. It was impossible to forcefully take it away, but he could not weaken at this time since he had already half succeeded. He took out the rhetorics he had already prepared before coming here and said with a confident expression, "Sir City Lord, how about this? The current Heavenly Sun City"s problem comes from the Flame Sprites to the south, so if I can calm this disaster, would I have the qualification to wield the "Rainbow Dusk"."
"You?" The Heavenly Sun City Lord looked at him in shock.
"One month! I just need one month of time! I can promise to sir City Lord that I will solve the Flame Sprite problem in one month. If I succeed, the "Rainbow Dusk" will belong to me. If I fail or pa.s.s one month, I will immediately return this "Rainbow Dusk" to sir City Lord. Moreover, I will not demand any reward for repairing it." Ye Tian Xie looked straight as he solemnly sword this.
"….." The Heavenly Sun City Lord was stunned before saying, "You really are too naive! The terrifying power of the Flame Sprites in the Lava Prison far surpa.s.ses your imagination! Even a Fire Magic G.o.d like me doesn"t dare approach. If you go there…..you won"t even be able to approach before you"re burned to death! The "Rainbow Dusk" cannot protect you at all."
"Wouldn"t that even be better. If I fail, the "Rainbow Dusk" will immediately return to your hands…..Relax, I will accomplish it if I dare say it, I will not go back on my words. If sir City Lord is not a.s.sured, how about we sign a contract right now." Ye Tian Xie said with a smile.
The Heavenly Sun City took a deep gaze at Ye Tian Xie before letting out a soft breath. He raised three fingers, "Three years! I"ve said it before, the "Rainbow Dusk" does not belong to me, it belongs to Heavenly Sun City. The longest amount of time I can make a decision on is three years. If you can really solve the Flame Sprite problem in one month and adding in the fact your restored the "Rainbow Dusk". I can let you keep it for three years…..I will also feel grateful to you."
In the end, he calmly added, "This is my bottom line."
"Good!" Ye Tian Xie replied without any hesitation before slowly putting the Rainbow Dusk back onto his neck. Without saying anything else, he waved his hand, "I will not let sir City Lord be disappointed, one month."
After he said this, he turned and left the City Lord"s palace.
The Heavenly Sun City Lord weakly fell back into his chair. Even he who had a temperament like fire was stopped by Ye Tian Xie"s words that he could not even let out a bit of rage at all. Now that he was slowly calming down, he was not sure if his decision was correct or if he was being impulsive.
"Ke, ke….." Ye Tian Xie came back after leaving. He walked in front of the Heavenly Sun City Lord"s desk and grabbed the sheep"s pelt on it, "This, I forgot something. Goodbye, sir City Lord."
Heavenly Sun City Lord: "……"
