The Invincible Dragon Emperor

They parted after they went ash.o.r.e. The island was safe. Anyone who dared to make a move on the island was to rival against the G.o.d-down Island.

Lu Li and Liu Yi went directly towards the G.o.d-down City. They took the Teleportation Formation to go to the Heaven Prison City just around daybreak. There were less people at this hour so them taking the Teleportation Formation wouldn’t attract so much attention.

They had taken the Teleportation Formation twice before so they didn’t feel so dizzy this time, just a slight tendency to vomit.

The two didn’t go to the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce immediately. They found the tavern they stayed in last time and checked in two rooms to have a rest.

Liu Yi had recovered. But she was quiet and upset, looking awful.

Lu Li didn’t know how to comfort her. He was embarra.s.sed even to bring up the matter. After all, it was like rubbing salt in the wound.

Around noon, Lu Li knocked on Liu Yi’s door. She still looked awful. Lu Li said, "How about you rest here. If you trust me, I will sell the Blood Caterpillar Fruits by myself."

How would Liu Yi not trust Lu Li? Without him, how could the Liu Family grow Blood Caterpillar Fruits in the first place? She was aware that she looked terrible, so she nodded and went back inside her room.

Lu Li went to the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce with a big bundle by himself. He directly went into the left gate and asked for Chief Steward Bai.

Chief Steward Bai received Lu Li enthusiastically. Seeing the big buddle he had, Chief Steward Bai’s eyes glowed. When Lu Li said that he had brought with him 6000 Blood Caterpillar Fruits, Chief Steward Bai gasped.

"The amount is huge. I need to report to my superior. Please wait here."

Chief Steward Bai smiled apologetically and left. Not long afterwards, Chief Steward Bai returned with a beautiful woman. When Lu Li saw her, his eyes lit up at once again.

Madam Yan was wearing a black silk dress today. Young women rarely wore black dresses as they would look older against black.

However, Lu Li felt Madam Yan in black silk dress was so beautiful and s.e.xy. She still wrapped her body tightly like before, but the enchantment radiating from inside her could make people go into ecstasies over her. Only one look from her was nearly too much for Lu Li to handle.

Lu Li dared not to look at Madam Yan. The latter smiled and said, "Brother Lu, h.e.l.lo. We meet again."

Lu Li looked up steadily forward to Madam Yan’s face, afraid to look at her well-developed body. He smiled and saluted back, "Greetings, Madam Yan."

Madam Yan casted her glances to the big bag of Blood Caterpillar Fruits and nodded slightly, "Brother Lu, you have done great work, 6000 Blood Caterpillar Fruits for this one time. Your efficiency is quite high?"

"It’s okay, just okay."

Lu Li didn’t say much in return for fear that Madam Yan might dig something up from his words. Madam Yan waved her hand and said, "Chief Steward Bai, bring the fruits to test. If everything is fine, settle the bill according to the agreed upon price."

"Yes, Madam!"

Chief Steward Bai left with the Blood Caterpillar Fruits. Madam Yan stayed behind, though. She smiled and talked to Lu Li, "Brother Lu, in your land, is Blood Caterpillar Fruit the only thing you can grow? Can’t you plant other Mystical Gra.s.ses or Mystical Fruits? If you can grow other high quality Mystical Gra.s.ses or Fruits, we can acquire them at a high price."

"Other Mystical Gra.s.ses or Mystical Fruits?"

Lu Li was intrigued. The good quality of the Blood Caterpillar Fruits stemmed completely from the improved blood. If the other Mystical Gra.s.ses or Mystical Fruits also needed to be irrigated by blood, couldn’t they grow them as well?

Lu Li thought for a while and asked, "Madam Yan, are there any Mystical Gra.s.ses or Mystical Fruits that needs to be irrigated with blood? We have a special prescription that can improve blood. If there are these kinds of Mystical Gra.s.ses or Mystical Fruits, we can improve the quality."

"Oh?"

Madam Yan’s pretty eyes showed she was interested. She just asked randomly, and didn’t expect that Lu Li could really grow them. She gestured to ask the maid to invite another Chief Steward here. She asked him and found two other elixirs that needed to be watered with blood.

The Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma and Netherworld Root!

To grow these, both of the elixirs demanded watering with Xuan Beast blood. The higher the rank of the blood-supplying Xuan Beast was, the better the quality was.

After the Chief Steward introduced the growth method for these two elixirs, Lu Li rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, say no more. We don’t have the ability now. Maybe we can consider about it in the future…"

One seed of these two kinds of elixirs would be more than 1000 Xuan Crystals, and they required blood of Xuan Beasts of at least the Third-rank. Third-rank Xuan Beast could be comparable to the Soul Pond Realm. How could the Liu Family catch them? If to purchase, then how could the Liu Family get their hands on so many Xuan Crystals? Also, wouldn’t the purchase of so many Third-rank Xuan Beasts cause a huge sensation?

Madam Yan smiled and gestured the Chief Steward to leave. She looked at Lu Li and said, "Brother Lu, do you think we can cooperate? We will provide all necessary stuff and you provide the prescription. If we can really grow high-quality elixirs, we will split the profit half and half."

"Half and half?"

The temptation was so huge. The Liu Family could get aboard the huge s.h.i.+p that was the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce. In the future, who dared to offend him and the Liu Family in the Thousand-island Lake?

"Something is wrong!"

Lu Li rolled his eyes and became alert. Something must be off; it was not normal. Who owned the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce? The Old Man of the Heaven Prison, the No. 1 Overlord of the Thousand-island Lake. He was qualified to be the most significant figure of the entire Northern Desert.

Old Man of the Heaven Prison had been dominating the Thousand-island Lake for 2000 years. How much wealth did he have? How many resources? Perhaps all the top level treasured land and resources belonged to the family of the Old Man of the Heaven Prison. How many a.s.sets did his family have? Unimaginable!

If so, why would Madam Yan sought to cooperate with him? With a small potato and Liu Family, one that did not have high status?

Even if they could grow good elixirs, how many Xuan Crystals would they make? How many Xuan Crystals the Heaven Prison Chamber of Commerce could make every day? Only the Green Dwarfs, let alone others, could be sold at 50,000 Xuan Crystals each one. Madam Yan had her eyes on the profit from cooperating with him?

Lu Li considered it over and over and felt something was wrong. If it was not Xuan Crystals that Madam Yan sought after, then it must be something else. For example, his animal tooth pendant, or his Bloodline Skill, or… Lu Renhuang?

The more he pondered about it, the more unreliable he felt the matter was. Lu Li mediated for a bit and then euphemistically said, "Madam Yan, I need to think it over and go back to discuss with our patriarchs. Thank you so much for your kindness."

The light in Madam Yan’s eyes glowed. Lu Li’s expressions changed several times just now. She had guessed some things. But she stood out without saying anything else except, "Okay. If you want to cooperate, you can find me any time you want. I have something to do. Goodbye."

"Wait!"

Lu Li thought of something and said, "Madam Yan, I want to buy two Green Dwarfs from you. Hmm… I don’t mean to ask for a discount. I just want to know, can you teleport them back for us secretly?"

Madam Yan sat down again. She considered it and said, "Is two enough? How about ten? I will give you a discount, 40,000 Xuan Crystals for one. I can send them to you secretly."

"Ten?"

Lu Li kept shaking his head and replied, "We don’t have so many Xuan Crystals. Also, for now, we cannot afford to raise them."

"I will loan them to you."

Madam Yan didn’t think too seriously of the matter. "We allow you to get the Green Dwarfs on credit. This time, you can get more than 100,000 Xuan Crystals with your fruits. It’s enough to raise the Green Dwarfs."

How could such nice things happen in the world? Hundreds of thousands of Xuan Crystals on credit? Lu Li said embarra.s.sedly, "Aren’t you afraid that we are going to run away?"

"Ha, ha, ha!"

Madam grinned from ear to ear and laughed so hard that her body trembled. She laughed for a while and then asked him back, "Do you dare to run away? On the entire Northern Desert, let alone the Thousand-island Lake, n.o.body dares to default their Xuan Crystal debts to us."
