As soon as Shopkeeper Qian announced the name and value of the Milky White Fruit, an uproar instantly broke out from the crowd.
“It really is a Milky White Fruit! How could it possibly come out of the Iron Grade Miracle Stone?”
“That’s right. Such a rare treasure should come out of a Gold Grade Miracle Stone, and it’s hard to believe that it came out of an Iron Grade Miracle Stone instead.”
“Could it be that our assumption that the Miracle Stone’s batch this time is not good is wrong?”
“Yeah, especially the Iron Grade Miracle Stones. The rewards this time are very generous; there may still be other valuable treasures as valuable as the Milky White Fruit but still haven’t been unearthed.”
“That’s also very possible. Ah, ah, I’ll buy them now! Shopkeeper Qian, I’ll buy some Iron Grade Miracle Stones!”
“Me too, me too!”
“This brother, please don’t fight with me!”
“Hey, people in the back, please calm down! Don’t push- Hey, where are you touching?!”
“It’s soft…”
For a moment, the Seeking Miracle Pavilion came alive again, and customers started flocking to buy Miracle Stones, hoping that they would be as lucky as Gao Peng and obtain valuable treasures.
Shopkeeper Qian, who saw this scene was ecstatic, his heart filled with joy.
‘Finally, I won’t be fired!’
He couldn’t help but look at Gao Peng, his eyes filled with gratitude, and said quietly: “Young Master Gao, you really are my savior! This time, thanks to you, the customers are inspired again to throw their money into my shop.”
Meanwhile, Gao Peng was staring blankly at his Milky White Fruit, then murmured: “I didn’t expect to get something this valuable…”
The shopkeeper who listened to his words couldn’t help but nod. He seemed to agree with Gao Peng.
“I also didn’t expect that Sir Manager would give you this treasure. He is truly generous, and you should thank Sir Manager later if you have a chance, Young Master Gao.”
Gao Peng’s mouth twitched instantly.
Is this fatty really not realizing his mistake?
This Milky White Fruit came from the Miracle Stone selected by Qin Yi, not from Shopkeeper Qian’s fake Miracle Stone.
Naturally, he would feel more grateful towards the former than the latter.
However, this fatty seems to have mistaken this Miracle Stone with a fake Miracle Stone.
Gao Peng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry at this result.
He wanted to confess the truth to this fatty, but he canceled his intentions after thinking for a while.
Most of the good Miracles Stones were already picked by the workers in the Seeking Miracle Pavilion to send them to the headquarter, while they are only selling the remaining ones to the customers.
If Seeking Miracle Pavilion found out there is still something good left in the remaining ones, they might be regretful and unhappy about it.
Shopkeeper Qian would probably be the one to blame for this incident.
If it affected that fatty, then Gao Peng would also be affected, and he might never get another cheap job like this in the future.
So, you might as well have them misunderstood.
Given Shopkeeper Qian’s clumsy work, he probably wouldn’t have reported this in detail to his manager and only said that his marketing operations were a huge success.
He couldn’t help but catch a glimpse of Qin Yi. After all, this guy is the main culprit of this incident.
However, he only saw that Qin Yi’s expression remained indifferent, as if he didn’t really care about the Milky White Fruit that came out of the Miracle Stone of his choice.
Gao Peng’s eyes flashed as he thought of something.
Even though he truly wanted this treasure, after all, it came from his brother’s choice. If he insisted on having it, it would be unfair to his brother.
After a brief reluctance, he finally decided to speak to Qin Yi: “Brother Qin, this Milky White Fruit comes from the Miracle Stone of your choice. You should have it instead of me.”
Qin Yi was a little taken aback.
He didn’t expect that Gao Peng would propose such an idea.
This Milky White Fruit should be helpful to all Qi Condensation Realm cultivators— Gao Peng isn’t an exception.
Qin Yi felt complicated. Even though he’s a bit crafty and calculating at deep bones, this guy isn’t that bad after all.
Despite facing such a precious treasure, he could still restrain his greed and was even willing to hand it over to his brother.
He admired that kind of character.
And this guy is worthy of a friend.
Therefore, he said: “Brother Gao, since this treasure fell into your hands, that means it has a destiny with you. Moreover, I don’t want to take something that belongs to my brother because it will hurt our brotherhood.”
When Qin Yi said this, his conscience hurt a little since he had already extracted many things from Gao Peng.
Besides, he had already extracted that fruit before giving it to Gao Peng.
Perhaps, if Gao Peng found out about this, he would immediately vomit blood and not hesitate to sever their brotherhood ties.
Seeing that Gao Peng was still hesitating, he added: “Besides, if I consume this treasure, it will only be able to help me advance from the First Stage of Qi Condensation Realm to the Second Stage of Qi Condensation Realm, and I think that it is a bit of a waste. These two stages were not much different in terms of strength and amount of spiritual energy as they were still within the scope of the low stage Qi Condensation Realm.”
“However, if Brother Gao is the one who uses it, you can advance to the Sixth Stage of Qi Condensation Realm, that’s a bit closer to the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. If you get stronger, I will generally have a strong backer in the outer sect. That way, other outer sect disciples, except those of the Eight or Ninth Stage of Qi Condensation Realm, will think twice before they make trouble with me.”
Hearing such an excuse, Gao Peng finally decided to use the Milky White Fruit for himself.
The Milky White Fruit Is no ordinary treasure. Since Qin Yi gave it to him, he would definitely treasure it well.
Even though he helped Qin Yi a lot, it was merely a matter between senior and junior. It’s nowhere compared to the amount of value of this treasure.
In the future, if Qin Yi needed his help, he would definitely help him.
“Then, I’ll shamelessly accept this treasure. If you somehow need my help in the future, you can just come to me without hesitation.”
“Haha, I won’t be polite when the time comes.” Qin Yi chuckled.
After that, he came over to Shopkeeper Qian, who was busy serving other customers.
“Shopkeeper Qian, can you help me shatter my Miracle Stone?”
Shopkeeper Qian naturally still remembered this youngster and their illicit dealings. He hastily received the Miracle Stone and then cracked it with the Law Breaker Hammer.
Soon, the Miracle Stone shattered and revealed what’s inside.
“What’s that?”
“An egg?”
The onlookers immediately wondered what it was.
It was a pitch-black egg-shaped thing the size of a fist, and a faint luster could be seen from its outer skin.
Everyone could see that it was an egg because a faint aura of life was coming from it.
However, it was unknown what kind of egg it was.
Shopkeeper Qian, “This is undoubtedly a magical beast egg. The estimated price of a magical beast egg depends on what kind of magical beast it is. Since this egg is still unknown, I cannot give an accurate value for this egg. However, according to market prices, ordinary magical beast eggs usually cost 500-1,000 spirit stones. Congratulations, Young Master Qin, you got a treasure in one try!”
“Thank you, Shopkeeper Qian. I was just lucky” Qin Yi scratched his cheek while smiling in pleasure.
“Wow, this guy’s luck is no worse than Gao Peng. He got the treasure in one try!”
“Even though it’s just an ordinary magical beast egg, it can sell for a hefty price. Even if he doesn’t sell it, he can raise it as a companion beast.”
“It would be great if it was a flying-type magical beast.”
“You think too much. How can a flying type of magical beast egg be obtained so easily?”
“You’re wrong, brother. This egg came from the Miracle Stone, maybe it can become a Miracle in the future…”
…
Although the atmosphere gradually became intense, Qin Yi didn’t express any emotion other than being slightly surprised. It was as if he was fortunate to get an ordinary magical beast egg.
However, in his heart, he was glad that nobody here noticed that this egg is a Mystic Beast egg, not a Magical Beast.
According to Qin Yi’s evaluation, maybe only certain people could recognize the Mystic Beast egg. The crowd here is not among those certain people.
Let alone seeing the Mystic Beast eggs; they might not even have seen Mystic Beasts before.
***
After Qin Yi and Gao Peng left the Seeking Miracle Pavilion, the two of them finally decided to return to the sect.
It seemed that Gao Peng eagerly wanted to go back to the sect and cultivate.
He definitely couldn’t wait any longer to use his Milky White Fruit to raise his base cultivation to a higher stage.
Even though Qin Yi really wanted to stroll in the city, he felt bad about delaying Gao Peng’s cultivation. So, he could only come back to the sect.
The two of them were walking down a narrow road on the periphery of Sleeping Dragon Mountain. Suddenly Gao Peng asked: “By the way, Brother Qin, how was your mission? Did it go well?”
“It’s going smoothly, the work is also not as difficult as I imagined before I went on a mission.”
As he answered this question, he suddenly remembered something unpleasant.
“By the way, Brother Gao, do you know the disciple named Lu Yun?”
“Lu Yun?”
Gao Peng furrowed his brows; it seemed he knew this name.
“I know this guy. What’s wrong? Is he giving you trouble?”
“Why does Brother Gao say that? This Lu Yun guy did give me a bit of trouble. He looks pretty hostile to me even though it’s our first time meeting. I think he’s acting like that maybe because I’m weaker than him, so he looked down on me…”
Qin Yi started to tell Gao Peng how he met Lu Yun.
After he finished, Gao Peng fell silent.
