Chapter 1191 Hot Sale
The cultivator at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion had never taken Hope Land seriously from the start. When they first set out to pursue the barbarians, he even considered destroying Hope Land along the way.
However, after the previous battle, the elder at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion pondered it more and more and felt something was amiss.
It was impossible for Chen Yang to have broken through to the ninth level of Hedan in such a short time, even if he was exceptionally talented.
Yet, the power that forced him back was indeed from the ninth level of Hedan, or perhaps even stronger.
"Do the humans have hidden experts?"
When the cultivator at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion reported this matter to the Mansion Lord of Yaodu Mansion, he received an answer that was difficult to accept.
Regardless of what hidden beings the human race currently possessed, they could not act rashly.
This was why he led his men to stake out the periphery of Hope Land.
Hope Land did not have strict inspection measures for cultivators of other races.
However, the inspections for those from Yaodu Mansion were exceptionally rigorous.
Many people from Yaodu Mansion even approached him for business.
They wanted Yaodu Mansion to ease up their pressure, so that Hope Land would not be so strict with their goods.
Naturally, the cultivator at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion would not allow these petty profits to disrupt his plans.
"Alas! How many years has it been since the human race caused such a stir!"
The cultivator at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion sighed. The last time he confronted the human race was a thousand years ago!
Back then, he was merely a newly ascended Hedan cultivator.
Now, he was already old and frail.
Just then, the elder at the ninth level of Hedan from Yaodu Mansion suddenly saw a peculiar chair produced by another person.
"Chi Dawán? What kind of chair is that?"
Chi Dawán was a cultivator at the fifth level of Hedan who was part of the siege on Hope Land. He was also the lord of a small nearby city.
Although his cultivation was not high, he possessed great business acumen.
"Oh! Great Venerable Wutu!"
Chi Dawán's face lit up with joy. He stood up and moved aside, saying, "Please try it. This was just sent by my subordinates. It's much more comfortable than ordinary chairs!"
"Legend has it that it can also accelerate cultivation!"
Venerable Wutu's eyebrows twitched. He puffed out his beard and glared, "What nonsense are you spouting? How can a chair accelerate cultivation?"
"You spend your days not cultivating properly, no wonder you're still only at the fifth level of Hedan!"
Chi Dawán was not angry or annoyed by Venerable Wutu's reprimand. Instead, he smiled and said, "Your talent is extraordinary, naturally you are not someone we juniors can compare with."
Seeing that the other party had already offered him his seat, Venerable Wutu's mind stirred, and he decided to sit down and try it.
The moment he sat on the sofa, Venerable Wutu immediately felt an unusual, soft, and snug fit.
The sense of comfort was something he had never experienced before.
"This chair... is quite interesting."
Venerable Wutu exclaimed. He was already at the ninth level of Hedan, and he had long grown weary of the luxuries he had enjoyed.
But this chair gave him a completely different feeling.
It was truly peculiar.
Chi Dawán, standing beside him, his eyes gleaming with joy, said, "Venerable Wutu, if you find it satisfactory, consider it a gift."
Venerable Wutu snorted, "You always pull these tricks, young man. But this thing is indeed comfortable."
"How much does it cost?"
Venerable Wutu did not want to owe the young man anything for such a small item.
After all, it wouldn't cost much.
"Ahem, one hundred top-grade spirit stones."
As soon as Chi Dawán finished speaking, Venerable Wutu was stunned for a moment, then glared at Chi Dawán, "You rascal, you're even trying to swindle this old man? One hundred top-grade spirit stones? That's almost the price of a rare treasure on the black market."
Chi Dawán quickly waved his hands, his expression tense. "It's really not. I bought it at this price. Currently, there are very few people in the entire realm who can sit on this."
"And this is just the cheapest model. I heard there are also customized cushions that are not only as comfortable as this chair but can also have runes engraved on them to enhance spiritual energy convergence."
As he spoke, a hint of fervor appeared in Venerable Wutu's eyes.
The price of a few top-grade spirit stones was indeed high, but he was not lacking in them.
"Please order a cultivation cushion for me. Also, I'll take ten similar chairs. My home chairs need replacing anyway."
Venerable Wutu said, he directly took out a small pouch and threw it over, then looked at the sofa and returned to his post.
Chi Dawán took the small bag, counted the spirit stones inside, his eyes flashed, and he chuckled inwardly, "I've made a fortune! With Venerable Wutu as a prominent endorsement, I can even do business with the Mansion Lord!"
Chi Dawán found a hidden spot, suppressed his aura, changed his appearance, and quietly headed towards Hope Land.
On the main road leading from Yaodu Mansion into the ancient battlefield, Chi Dawán was stopped by several people in uniform as soon as he entered.
"Everyone from the direction of Yaodu Mansion must be inspected!" a young human cultivator said fiercely.
Chi Dawán raised his eyebrows, "Young man, are you new here? You're even inspecting me?"
The captain of the human guards saw this and slapped the young man on the head. "This is Boss Chi. Remember him, and don't block him in the future."
Chi Dawán smiled lightly, took out a few spirit stones, and threw them over. "Take this and buy some spiritual tea."
Watching Chi Dawán's receding back, the young man in the human team cried with a long face, "Captain! Aren't we supposed to be strictly inspecting people from the direction of Yaodu Mansion these days? Why did you let him go like that? Who is this Boss Chi?"
"Who is he? He's someone neither you nor I can afford to offend. He's a major patron of Hope Land. Lord Dong Cang specifically instructed that he be shown some respect!"
Chi Dawán was unaware of the discussion among the human guards. He rushed to a small shop in Hope Land at the fastest speed.
From the outside, anyone who didn't know would think it was just an ordinary tea stall.
However, the decoration inside the shop was by no means simple. There was no craftsmanship that belonged to the architectural style of this realm.
The shopkeeper's eyes widened the moment he saw the person arriving. "Oh my! Boss Chi! You've come at the perfect time. Our Boss Dong was just thinking of looking for you! He's resting in a private room on the second floor today. Please wait a moment, I'll inform him."
"Someone, serve Boss Chi tea!"
Chi Dawán's eyebrows twitched. This Boss Dong behind the shop?
He had only heard of him before but had never seen him.
Today, he wanted to see who was producing so many strange and wonderful items!
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly descended from the second floor. Chi Dawán's gaze fell upon him, and the tea in his mouth spurted out. He stared at the person, shocked, "Chen Yang!"
Chen Yang, who had just finished chatting with Dong Cang and was lamenting the shop's terrifying profits, heard someone call his name and turned his head.
"Hmm? Hedan fifth level cultivation!"
