Seeing that Xiangyu was getting better, Chen Xiaobei went ahead and clicked on the Red Envelope Group.
Chen Xiaobei: I want to buy Three-star Divine Medicine, a Five-colored Magnolia! I need it to save someoneâs life! (Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! @Shennong @Hundred-Herb God)
Hundred-Herb God: Erm⦠I donât have it with meâ¦
Monkey King: F*ck you! Stop lying! You are currently taking care of the Hundred-Herb Garden! Now, when God Chen is asking you to bring him a Three-star Divine Medicine, you dare say you donât have it with you?
Hundred-Herb God: Monkey King, plese donât get angry at me⦠Itâs true that I donât have it with me!
Chen Xiaobei: Bro⦠Itâs okay⦠Letâs not force himâ¦
Hundred-Herb God was one of the officers in the heavenly realm. The Jade Emperor, together with the Queen Mother were under Primordial Lord of Heaven. In other words, even if he did have the Five-colored Magnolia with him, he would not sell or give it to Chen Xiaobei. Clearly, he could not afford to offend Chen XIaobei or anger Shen Gongpao. Being stuck on a fence, he chose to not side with anyone.
Monkey King: @Shennong. Come out now! I saw you reading the chat just now! Donât try to hide from us!
Shennong: Cough⦠Cough⦠Iâm old⦠Thatâs why my reaction is a tad bit slow⦠Please donât get angry at meâ¦
Chen Xiaobei: Elder Shennong⦠Do you have the Five-colored Magnolia with you?
Shennong: Yes⦠Butâ¦
Monkey King: But whatâ¦? Just speak your mind already! Donât waste our time! Xiaobei needs it to save someoneâs life!
Shennong: I have it with me right now but it is extremely expensive! Iâm selling it for three million merit points!
âDamn! He is clearly trying to rob all of my merit points! Not even the most cunning businessman would do something like this!â Chen Xiaobei said, clearly very shocked.
Earlier, Chen Xiaobei had already expected that Shennong would come up with a ridiculous price. Clearly, someone was trying to clean out all the merit points that Chen Xiaobei possessed.
âLuckily Acheron gave me a free antidote! If not, I would have been left penniless!â
Deep inside his heart, he was glad that someone gave him something worth a whopping three million merit points.
Monkey King: Shennong, you old man! Are you crazy?! Thatâs just a Three-star Divine Medicine and you are selling it for three million merit points?! Why donât you go and rob a bank?! Hold on⦠You canât even rob that much off a bank!
At that moment, no one dared say a single word about it. On one side were Jieismâs disciples and the other side were Chanismâs disciples. Everyone was just minding their own business. Monkey King was the only exception in the group. With Lady Nuwo and Lord Zhunti backing him up, he could be considered as one of the bravest members in the group. No one in their right mind would criticize Shennong in front of everyone.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shennnong: Monkey King⦠You misunderstood my intention⦠Iâm not the one who set this priceâ¦
Monkey King: This is your belonging⦠Who else has the right to set the price for you?!
Chen Xiaobei: Bro⦠I think Old Shennong is telling the truth here! The total merit points that I have right now is three million! Clearly, someone has taken a peek at the merit points book before setting this price. And we all know who the person is!
Shen Gongpao: You are right! Iâm the one that set the price! Are you going to say something about it?
Chen Xiaobei: Itâs too expensive! Iâll try to figure some other ways to save my friend!
Shen Gongpao: So, you think itâs expensive? Beg me then! Maybe, Iâll give you a 20% discount!
Chen Xiaobei: No thanks! You can keep it for yourself!
Shen Gongpao: Arenât you going to save your friend?
Chen Xiaobei: Iâll figure something out myself! I will never spend three million merit points to buy your medicine!
Shen Gongpao: Thereâs no time for you to figure out a way to save your friend! How about⦠I sell it to you for two million merit points?
Chen Xiaobei: Psst! I will not buy it from you even if you reduce the price to 200,000 merit points!
Shen Gongpao: Chen Xiaobei! Are you going to buy from me or not?! I see it now! I see you are trying to make a fool out of me!
Chen Xiaobei: I was going to buy it from you just now! But, you wanted to sell it to me at a ridiculous price tag! Thatâs why I will never buy it from you unless, you come over here and beg me! Then, I might consider buying it from you for 100,000 merit points!
Shen Gongpao: Beg you?! And only 100,000 merit points?! Who do you think you are?
Chen Xiaobei: Up to you then! Hehe!
Shen Gongpao: You!!!
Yun Zhongzi: Shen Gongpao, stop arguing here! The new candidate for the Three Realms Mission has been chosen! Go and deal with it quickly!
âYun Zhongzi?! His position is slightly less powerful than the Primordial Lord of Heaven! And he is known as the one of the three vice sect-leaders of Chanism!â
Shen Gongpao: Yes! Let me go and deal with it immediately!
Yun Zhongzi: And! You have to take care of the Chinese Chess Competition as well! The reward which would be given out this time is more valuable than you can imagine! You. Must. Deal. With. It. Properly!
Shen Gongpao: Understood!
âSomething weird is going on here! The last time, Shen Gongpao mentioned that the candidate for the Three Realms Mission would be chosen from the underworld realm! And why did Yun Zhongzi stick his nose in the Chinese Chess Competition?! Could these two matters be actually related?
Seeing that Yun Zhongzi had suddenly popped up in the group, Chen Xiaobei suspected that something nasty was going on behind the scenes. Due to the fact that he still could not find any information regarding this matter, there was no way for Chen Xiaobei to take a guess of their evil plan.
âHold on! Sifu told me that I can go and ask Acheron about things like this if he didnât reply my message! Acheron used to be the ruler of underworld realm! Iâm pretty sure that he can help me in this matter!â
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei sent a message to Acheron. Just as expected, Acheron was always available. Seconds later, he replied Chen Xiaobeiâs message.
Acheron: God Chen, you want to know who is being selected to complete the Three Realms Mission?
Chen Xiaobei: Yes! And I want to know their special abilities and the items that they brought with them!
Acheron: I can go check out the candidate. As for the others, you have to leave them to your luck!
Chen Xiaobei: Alright! I will wait here thenâ¦
âI feel like this Three Realms Mission is not as simple as I thought it would be⦠I really hope that Acheron can find out more about this matter⦠With that, I can be prepared to deal with any surprises! After all, Iâm still not powerful enough! I wouldnât have to worry about anything if my cultivation is soaring high! I really have to figure out something to boost my cultivation!â
âBro Bei! I have fed all those victims the antidote that you gave me⦠All the tumors on their bodies are slowly disappearing but their newly acquired powers are still with them!â said Yin Wuqiu while walking towards Chen Xiaobei.
âNewly acquired powesr?â
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei shot a look at Xiangyu.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Early phase of Celestial cultivation. Lifespan: 303 years. Health: 90,000. Combat power: 70,000!]
âEh?! Bro Yuâs health has increased by 20,000! Is that caused by the biochemical drug?!â
âThat should be the case⦠all those victims look exactly like wild beasts! Their health points are way higher than ordinary elites!â
âIf thatâs the case⦠Maybe, I should transform myself into Bionic Soldier as wellâ¦â said Chen Xiaobei with a smirk on his face.
