Chapter 607 - 253 Selling Secret Technique_3
It’s not a big deal if Li Xiu is dead; he hasn’t gotten the Light Planting Technique yet.
Wan Chaoxin looked peculiarly at Li Xiu talking with Li Changyin in the distance, still somewhat incredulous, and asked Wan Chaocun beside him, "Auntie, did Li Xiu really create that Light Planting Technique?"
"Jing Li is standing right there, so it probably can’t be wrong." Wan Chaocun’s expression was also somewhat unusual. She pursed her lips and lightly smiled, saying, "If you want it, I’ll go ask for a copy for you."
"Is this... convenient?" Wan Chaoxin was proud and ambitious. If it were just for himself, he would never ask for Li Xiu’s things. However, the Light Planting Technique that Li Xiu came up with could influence the whole dynamic of Longevity City. If other families have it and Wan Chao’s family doesn’t, the decline of Wan Chao’s family would be foreseeable.
"There’s nothing inconvenient about it. Don’t forget, he’s my fourth brother." Wan Chaocun smiled as she stood up, "Let’s go, we’ll go now."
Wan Chaoxin gritted his teeth and followed Wan Chaocun towards Li Xiu, his expression shifting unpredictably, feeling somewhat anxious and unsettled.
Wan Chaocun, however, wasn’t as anxious and unsettled as Wan Chaoxin; she knew that since Li Xiu had brought up this thing, he definitely hadn’t planned to enjoy it alone. Once people knew, it wouldn’t be something he could keep to himself.
That’s why she would go to ask Li Xiu for it; she knew Li Xiu would give it.
Of course, Wan Chaocun didn’t intend to get it for free either.
Li Changyin originally thought that negotiating with Li Xiu would be very troublesome. After all, his relationship with Li Xiu was already like water and fire, and now getting such a thing from Li Xiu might require unimaginable sacrifices.
Li Changyin had already made up his mind. No matter what kind of sacrifice he would have to make, he must get Li Xiu’s Light Planting Technique, and he couldn’t let it fall into others’ hands.
What Li Changyin didn’t expect was that Li Xiu didn’t mention the previous matters at all and was actually very willing to trade with him, and the terms weren’t as demanding as Li Changyin imagined.
Li Xiu just wanted to take back those Blood Seal Stones from the former Demon Armor team, and additional gemstone resources—nothing else.
Although the gemstones Li Xiu wanted were many, it was already much less than the cost Li Changyin had anticipated.
"Are you sure the Light Planting Technique you’re giving me can be cultivated by all Trial Takers?" Li Changyin looked at Li Xiu and asked.
"If it can’t be cultivated, the Patriarch of the Li Family is welcome to come and take my head." Li Xiu said calmly.
"Alright, Wanli, go get the Blood Seal Stones and the gemstones Li Xiu wants, not one less." Li Changyin ordered Bai Wanli to fetch the gemstones.
Soon, Bai Wanli came back with boxes of Blood Seal Stones and gemstones, piling them directly in front of Li Xiu.
Li Xiu took out a small box from his chest and handed it to Li Changyin with great care, "Patriarch, this technique is extremely precious; I hope you won’t easily spread it."
"I naturally understand this." Li Changyin took the box and opened it. Inside was a beautifully bound small booklet. He flipped through it, and it was filled with handwritten techniques, clearly a manuscript, which made Li Changyin quite satisfied.
After looking at it for a while, Li Changyin realized Li Xiu’s Light Planting Technique was indeed feasible. Although there were special requirements, as long as there were Light Base experts to assist, indeed everyone could condense Light Veins.
He felt excited, but his face turned cold, pretending to be annoyed, "This method is not something everyone can cultivate; the requirements are too high, and it needs verification to know if this technique is feasible. After I verify it, if it’s not feasible, I’ll surely take your head."
"The Patriarch may go ahead." Li Xiu knew that Li Changyin’s words were actually sowing a thorn in the minds of the other high-ups so they wouldn’t come to him for the Light Planting Technique so quickly.
Seeing that Li Xiu didn’t refute his words, Li Changyin was satisfied and left with the box, urgently leaving the Martial Arts Arena.
Since the Light Planting Technique was of unknown authenticity and so many gemstones were required for exchange, it is believed other families would also consider whether it is worth spending a huge amount now to compete for the Light Planting Technique.
Wan Chaocun had already brought Wan Chaoxin near to Li Xiu. Wan Chaoxin looked at the boxes of gemstones, and he felt troubled in his heart.
If Wan Chao’s family really had to take out so many gemstones at once to exchange for the Light Planting Technique, then before the resources were distributed next year, Wan Chao’s family would have to tighten their belts.
"Sister Chun." Seeing Wan Chaocun coming over, Li Xiu stood up and greeted her willingly.
"Fourth brother is indeed a genius, having researched such a secret technique as the Light Planting Technique." Wan Chaocun said with a smile.
"Is Sister Chun interested too?" Li Xiu laughed and asked.
"Indeed very interested. Xiao Xin leading Wan Chao’s family to reach this stage wasn’t easy, and this time our Wan Chao family can’t lose the advantage." Wan Chaocun said.
Li Xiu understood Wan Chaocun’s meaning and smiled as he handed a copy of the Light Planting Technique to Wan Chaoxin, saying, "Last time I didn’t bring a gift for our meeting, so consider this as making up for our last meeting gift."
Wan Chaoxin was surprised and delighted, not expecting Li Xiu to say this. For a moment, he didn’t know whether to accept it or not.
"Thank your fourth granduncle." Wan Chaocun said beside him.
"Thank you, fourth..." Wan Chaoxin gritted his teeth and took the Light Planting Technique from Li Xiu’s hands, but those four granduncle words were really hard to say, and he only managed to say fourth uncle.
"Family doesn’t need to be polite." Li Xiu said with a smile.
Originally hesitating due to Li Changyin’s words, the senior members of each family, seeing this, also came over.
Rather be deceived than fall behind. If Li Xiu really deceived them, seeking it back from him later wouldn’t be difficult. No matter how formidable Li Xiu was, he wouldn’t dare to deceive everyone.
Li Xiu did not refuse anyone who came, selling the Light Planting Technique to whoever asked for it. He started selling it expensive, but later it kept getting cheaper until even some small families could afford to buy a copy. At first, some wanted to resell it, but realized Li Xiu sold it cheaper than they did, turning the stands in the Martial Arts Arena into a marketplace.
No one watched the tournament at all. Li Changyin hurriedly took the Light Planting Technique back; he’d already decided that even at the risk of being punished by the president, he couldn’t let Li Xiu leave the Martial Arts Arena alive.
He didn’t know that after he left, Li Xiu had already started a big sell-off; he hadn’t thought Li Xiu would bring so many handwritten copies.
Walking and walking, Li Changyin suddenly felt something was wrong. There seemed to be a lot of garbage in Longevity City today.
Someone had posted some papers on the walls of Longevity City; he looked at the contents carefully, and suddenly he was almost spewing blood in anger.
The content written on the paper was unexpectedly the Light Planting Technique that Li Xiu had sold to him at high prices, identical in writing, including the penmanship.
