Chapter 126: Cloud-Piercing Shuttle (3)

Upon realizing this, the corners of Su Chen’s mouth quirked up in a smile .

He said, “I want to try out how much energy it expends . ”

“Prince, please . ” Cui Miaoling raised her hand and unleashed the Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle . This Flood Dragon Shuttle expanded back to its original size . Su Chen jumped in and began to try and control this shuttle . Indeed, he felt a strong draw beginning to occur, as if a vortex was constantly pulling Su Chen’s consciousness power in .

Even with his consciousness power, Su Chen felt a wave of dizziness wash over him, and he was amazed in his heart . If this had been anyone else, they might have been knocked unconscious by the Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle before even starting to drive it .

He finally got the Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle going . A massive amount of light began to shine from the shuttle, lighting up the whole fourth floor .

Su Chen and the others weren’t alone within the space on the fourth floor . There were also a few other guests looking for different Cloud-Piercing Shuttles .

When they saw the Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle appear, the guests who were familiar with it and knew about its flaw laughed mockingly and walked over to look . Evidently, they were waiting for Su Chen to fall unconscious .

Unexpectedly, the Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle began to rumble . The onlookers were dazed .

There were quite a few Origin Qi Scholars who could activate the Flood Dragon Shuttle, but this was their first time seeing an Origin Qi Scholar with such a low cultivation base do it . It was unsurprising that they were so shocked .

Su Chen withdrew his hand and said, “Activating it requires a ton of consciousness energy, as does maintaining a constant speed, though it uses less consciousness energy . This implies that even though I can control it, with my current consciousness energy I won’t be able to hold on for too long . ”

“But Prince can grow stronger, right? With the Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle’s speed and defensive capabilities, you won’t have any issues using it even as a Light Shaking Realm cultivator . With Prince’s growth rate, you’ll be able to control this Cloud Thunder Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle totally in just a few years . ” Cui Miaoling obviously knew how to sell things, pinpointing Su Chen’s thoughts precisely .

That was true . Even though his current consciousness power made it so that controlling the shuttle was still a bit out of his reach, Su Chen could grow stronger . As long as he was willing, he could very quickly increase his consciousness energy .

However, Su Chen would not openly agree with what Cui Miaoling said .

He only said indifferently, “How can it be that easy? Unless I cultivate for around ten years, I won’t be able to reach the level of controlling it totally . ”

He didn’t confirm nor deny it . He just exaggerated the amount of time that would be necessary to increase his consciousness power, but to Cui Miaoling and the others that was totally normal .

After all, even people in the imperial family might not possess such an incredibly consciousness power tempering technique and a constant supply of Spirit Sobering Medicines .

Cui Miaoling was a cold, calculating woman . When she heard Su Chen’s words, she realized that it wasn’t that the other party didn’t want it; they just wanted to lower the price .

Even though this Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle was good, it hadn’t been sold for a few hundred years due to its massive draw on consciousness energy . It had become the Flying Moon Workshop’s sore point, a massive source of income just sitting there collecting dust .

To the Flying Moon Workshop, they wouldn’t miss an opportunity to sell it off . As for the price of a hundred million Origin Stones, they were just claiming it in name only .

Cui Miaoling said, “They say that treasures choose their masters . This Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle’s defensive capabilities and speed are higher than what Prince requested and suits Prince quite well . Perhaps Prince is the master that it has been waiting for for hundreds of years already . If Prince really likes it, Miaoling is willing to lower the price a bit . ”

“How much?” Su Chen asked .

“Ninety million Origin Stones . ”

Su Chen laughed coldly . “Too expensive!”

“Prince Su, this Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle is worth 1 . 5 million Origin Stones without defects . We’ve only lowered the price to this because of this small flaw . ”

“This isn’t a small flaw; it’s a big one,” Su Chen replied . “If the problem was with something else, at most its performance would decrease . However, its requirement on consciousness power directly excludes most people from using it, and even I can only use it a limited amount . That kind of a flaw is enough to completely ruin the Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle . Asking for ninety million under these kinds of circumstances is too much . ”

“Then what price does Prince think is appropriate?”

“Forty million Origin Stones . ”

Cui Miaoling immediately grew agitated . “If we sold it at that price, it would be gone already . Would there be a point in waiting until now?”

This statement was true . The Flood Dragon Emperor Shuttle was still useable by a decent amount of people, and there were many people with cultivation bases at the Light Shaking Realm or above that could use it . However, they might not take a fancy to it .

Cui Miaoling said, “Prince Su, if you are genuinely interested in buying it, I can sell it to you for eighty million . ”

Su Chen shook his head . “I can consider it if you lower it to fifty million . ”

Cui Miaoling gritted her teeth . “Seventy million . That’s the lowest . We cannot go any lower . ”

She originally thought that Su Chen was going to lower the price a bit more, but he didn’t . Instead, he pulled out a piece of paper and handed it over to Cui Miaoling . “Apart from the Cloud-Piercing Shuttle, I’m also planning on buying these things from you . ”

Cui Miaoling glanced at them and almost had a heart attack . This piece of paper had written on it all kinds of precious and rare raw ingredients .

If they prepared what Su Chen had requested, the cost might add up to another hundred million Origin Stones .

Cui Miaoling couldn’t help but say, a little out of breath, “Prince has quite a bit of style in spending money . ”

“How about 150 million Origin Stones for all of these things combined?” Su Chen asked .

After another round of furious negotiations, the price was finally set at 155 million Origin Stones .

It was also obvious that Cui Mingliao had put everything on the line for this sale . Even though she didn’t dare use her charm techniques anymore, her ample endowments swung dizzyingly .

When the dust all settled, everyone let out a collective sigh of relief .

A sale of over a hundred million Origin Stones was rare even for the Flying Moon Workshop .

As for Gu Jintang, he was completely dazed .

155 million Origin Stones!

They had decided it just like that?

Su Chen was someone without a bloodline . How was he able to so casually pull out such an astronomical sum of Origin Stones?

How was this possible?

Gu Jintang was the Gu Clan’s Fourth Young Master and a Yang Opening Realm cultivator . Every month, the allowance he received from his clan was only eight thousand Origin Stones . Normally he would even have to think of ways to get a bit more spending money to ensure that he had enough cultivation resources . At the most, however, he only really earned around a million Origin Stones every year .

Now, this bloodline-less Su Chen had made a purchase of 155 million Origin Stones just like that .

How was this possible?

He was still unconsciously waiting for Su Chen to pull some kind of trick to confirm that he was just putting on airs .

But when Su Chen pulled out the golden Origin Card from the “Huitong Company”, Gu Jintang was rendered completely speechless .

Huitong Company was Long Sang’s largest bank and did business all across the country . Their Origin Cards were very powerful forms of persuasion . Normally, the Huitong Company would assign their customers Origin Cards based on their value . This kind of golden Origin Card was the highest level one; it was impossible to obtain one unless your account had at least a hundred million Origin Stones .
