Su Yu decided to offer them a bullshit price as well. He did not promise that the corpses would still have any blood in them. It wouldn''t be his fault if they somehow misunderstood his offer.
He had already calcted the value of all those things. They were worth two hundred thousand merit points at most. That was the limit.
As for the three medallions he had, they were all outer ring medallions. Even the best medallion he had was only a twenty-sixth ring medallion. They weren''t too useful for him as they were only effective against Skysoar death spirits.
Nevertheless, each ancient city medallion was a rare item so Su Yu judged that they were worth around a hundred thousand merit points. All in all, he was offering the Heavenly Hunt Pavillion three hundred thousand merit points.
As for the hundred drops of Mountainsea blood essence he requested, that would require them to kill ten Mountainsea death spirits. There was no way this offer was going to be epted. This was merely part of the haggling process.
Soon, a reply came, "Apart from Mountainsea blood essence, we can get you the other blood essence you asked for."
"Bullshit. I''m offering things worth millions of merit points. Are you going to give me only a few drops of Skysoar and Cloudbreach blood essence for that?"
"You must have extracted all the blood essence from those corpses, right?"
"They''re not exactlypletely dried out. Do you want them or not?""Add a drop of Mountainsea blood essence..."
"Bullshit. I''m your big customer. Just check your records and see how much you have earned from me during the past few days? A big spender like me is very hard to find. Learn to feel some gratitude. Fine, fine, I''ll eat a loss and add the corpses of Silver Armor and me Armor as well. Is that agreeable?"
"They''re still alive."
"Not for long."
"You might as well offer us an Invincible corpse if you''re going to be making empty promises like that."
Su Yu replied, "Is there no entrepreneurial spirit in the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion? Fine. If I really fail to kill them, you can have my corpse instead. I''ll probably be dead anyway if I fail to kill them. In that situation, you may have my corpse."
"..."
The masked man was rendered speechless. Offering up his corpse. But would that fellow even die with his corpse intact?
The masked man looked at his elder again. The faceless elder took a look at the chat history. After a long silence, he said, "Ten drops of Mountainsea blood essence for the corpses of Silver Amor, me Armor, and all the things he offered previously. That''s the best deal we can give him. If he dies, we will be there to collect his corpse."
The two Mountainsea corpses, with one of them being a sixth-stage Mountainsea, were worth more than a hundred thousand merit points. Including everything else Su Yu was offering, they could get about five hundred thousand merit points from this deal.
Selling ten drops of Mountainsea death spirit blood essence at such a price wasn''t exactly profitable, but it was no loss either. After all, the death spirits were much harder to kill than the mystic armors.
Even an early Mountainsea death spirit would be much harder to kill than Silver Armor. Since Su Yu was offering even his corpse, this deal was eptable. If he really ended up dying, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion would definitely be there to collect the corpse. One should never doubt this.
After all, the entire conversation had been recorded. Su Yu himself had sold his corpse. Even if the immortals were the killers, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion would still have the courage to collect the corpse from the immortals. Su Yu''s corpse would most definitely contain numerous secrets.
The masked man was surprised. The elder had actually agreed.
***
A short whileter, Su Yu received a reply. They agreed to the deal. He was overjoyed. Exchanging a pile of garbage for some death spirit blood essence was totally worth it. This was a good deal.
He knew very well just how difficult Mountainsea death spirits were to kill. Finally, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had performed aparatively fair transaction with him. He considered all his previous transactions with them a scam.
"How should weplete this transaction? They''re keeping watch outside my building."
"It''s fine. We will notify you through the index copy. You only need to open the door for a split second."
"That won''t give Final Armor and the others a chance to barge in, right?"
"If that happens, we are willing to kill them for free."
"Deal!"
What else could he say if the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was even willing to make such a promise? He only needed to prepare himself. Then again, he reminded himself to never fully trust the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. This organization was looking more and more mysterious to him. Even the blood essence of death spirits was being sold by them.
It was obvious that the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had killed some death spirits before. How gutsy!
He started making his preparations. As for the so-called opportunity that one might find inside an ancient city building, he couldn''t be bothered to even look for it. He could get opportunities through killing. Why waste his time looking for these incredibly rare ancient building opportunities?
Furthermore, something everyone could look for would most certainly not be anything good.
A new thought emerged in Su Yu''s mind as he wrote on his index copy again, "Provide a list of names for me. I want the name of everyone in the city. I only need to know their names, cultivation levels, and races."
"Everyone?"
"Yes."
"Do you want a constantly updated list or a fixed list?"
"Constantly updated list. I only want to know about those at the Cloudbreach Realm and above. Forget about everyone else."
"Three hundred thousand merit points. Thank you for your patronage."
"..."
Su Yu was starting to tire of this. Had he worked so hard all this time just to funnel everything he had earned to the Heavenly Hunt Pavillion? Then again, it was quite surprising that the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was willing to even sell such information.
Gnashing his teeth, Su Yu replied, "A hundred thousand. That''s already a very good price."
He would do something big this time. If he seeded, he would gain even more strength. If he failed, he would restart from scratch. Or perhaps he wouldn''t even get the chance to restart. In that case, he might as well spend some money to buy all the advantages he could get.
By knowing the exact identities of the people in the city, he could even target suitable individuals to kill and gain more heavenly rewards. Looking for opportunities inside the buildings in the city? No. For Su Yu, the visitors of the city were the biggest source of opportunities.
"Deal. We will provide only their names, races, and cultivation levels. Nothing else."
"No problem. Are you guys able to even receive our merit points?"
"Yes. You can also provide us an unnamed merit card if you want."
"Sure."
"..."
Once again, a deal was reached between them.
***
In the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, the masked man eximed, "Elder, this guy is really rich. Up until now, he has spent nearly a million human merit points with us. And it has only been a few days since he started dealing with us."
What was a big customer? Su Yu would be the perfect example of that. In fact, even when transacting with Sunmoons, very few of them could actually transact in such massive volumes. Additionally, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had also earned arge profit from the immortals when they bought Su Yu''s information.
Generally, regardless of the race one was from, only Sunmoons and Invincibles would be able to afford transactions worth a million human merit points. In fact, not even early Sunmoons could necessarily afford such a level of transaction.
The faceless elder smiled, "This is only the beginning. If that brat survives this, he will transact even more with us. This is a stable andrge customer. You need to maintain your long term rtionship with him well."
"I understand."
The masked man was starting to grow excited. He vowed to take good care of his rtionship with this customer. After all, masked individuals like them were entitled to somemission from their sales.
The bigger the transaction was, the moremission they would receive. In fact, these geniuses were the favorite customers of the many masked individuals in the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.
***
Having reached an agreement with the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, Su Yu started waiting for the arrival of their people. He couldn''t help but mutter that the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was basically the delivery service of the Allheaven Battlefield.
They had the courage to deliver their products regardless of venue. What a gutsy bunch. How did the myriad races manage to tolerate them for so many years? How did they survive until now?
Were the core members from the ancient times still around or had they been constantly replenishing their members, with only the name of the organization remaining unchanging? While Su Yu was waiting, more and more death qi covered the immediate surroundings of his building.
It was still daytime, yet something unusual happened. Arge number of death spirits appeared out of nowhere and surrounded the building.
Final Armor rushed out of his building, his expression changing.
"Who is it?"
Dao Cheng and the others walked out as well. They hastily surrounded Su Yu''s building. Next, a masked white figure appeared among the death spirits.
"The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion is here to make a delivery. Please excuse me, everyone."
"Impudent!" Dao Cheng roared, "Is the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion trying to interfere? Does the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion really think that it''s untouchable?"
"Please forgive me. I will leave shortly."
The masked individual proceeded toplete the transaction with Su Yu while surrounded by a bunch of death spirits. Whilepleting the transaction, he spoke, "I''m not taking Su Yu away. I''m only here to deliver some stuff. It''s not like Su Yu can afford the price of our protection. Lord Immortal Dao Cheng, please calm your anger."
"Bastard!"
Dao Cheng was furious. Did the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion think of this as a game? This was too excessive.
Finally, the transaction waspleted. Without saying anything else, the masked individual left with the group of death spirits.
Dao Cheng snorted coldly.
Following his snort, a spatial crack appeared right in front of the masked individual. At the same time, Final Armor reached out and sent the death spirits flying. It was no big deal to kill the people of Heavenly Hunt Pavilion as long as the benefit was great enough. They all wanted to know about the recently concluded transaction between the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion and Su Yu.
They didn''t even need to worry about the consequences as everyone wanted to kill the people from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. Like Topsoil Spirit said, some of them were carrying those index copies on them just for the sake of killing these Heavenly Hunt Pavilion members.
<em>Rumble!</em>
The masked individual sent a palm strike out and crushed Final Armor''s attack. Then, the masked individualughed and said, "We do not intend to interfere. Su Yu did not hire us to kill all of you. Furthermore, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion does not wish to be anyone''s enemy. Final Armor, why bother stopping me?"
"Damn it!"
Final Armor cursed. Next, the masked individual vanished into thin air. As for Dao Cheng''s spatial crack, well, he had canceled it himself. The masked individual had nonchntly tossed a random death spirit toward the crack, forcing Dao Cheng to withdraw his attack. He didn''t wish to kill more death spirits and create even more trouble for himself. And he could sense just how strong the masked individual was. It was pointless.
Both Dao Cheng and Final Armor had unsightly expressions. Meanwhile, the numerous geniuses who were spectating in different buildings were looking at them mockingly. The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was truly fearless. They had actually delivered their product even in the middle of an active confrontation.
As for Su Yu, he was clicking his tongue with amazement.
It would seem like he had not paid the price for nothing. Sure, it was expensive, but it was worth it. Of course, the death spirit blood essence needed to work or all this would be aplete waste. Several unique bottles appeared in his hand.
The moment the blood essence left its bottle, Su Yu felt a powerful corrosive power filling the room.
"Can this thing even be consumed?"
Even someone who was never picky with his food like Su Yu was hesitating. Could this be eaten? Damn it. He couldn''t bring himself to consume it. He had purchased five drops of Skysoar blood essence, five drops of Cloudbreach blood essence, and ten drops of Mountainsea blood essence in total.
With a drop of Skysoar blood essence in hand, hissing sounds rang out as the blood essence started corroding his palm. Su Yu was feeling greatly troubled. This was only the Skysoar Realm, yet it was already so tricky to deal with.
And he had to stuff something like this into his mouth? Would his entire mouth rot away? He took out some heavenly source qi and allowed his palm to recover. Then, he chased the little furball out of his sea of willpower. The little fellow hurriedly dashed into the midst of his hair and refused toe out.
He would rather die than swallow that smelly thing. That thing was so disgusting.
"Do you want to give it a try?"
The little furball did not answer. Instead, he tried to run back into Su Yu''s sea of willpower. He refused topromise! The furball race was also a race with dignity! He would not lower himself to eat something like that!
"This is very expensive. It''s even more expensive than divine and devil blood essence. But since you refuse, so be it."
With a smile, Su Yu swallowed the drop of blood essence.
<em>Hisss!</em>
A sound reminiscent of a piece of hot iron being submerged in water rang out. At the same time, it also sounded simr to the sound one would hear when pouring water into hot oil. Almost instantly, half his tongue rotted away. Intense pain assaulted him.
Clenching his teeth, Su Yu started exhausting arge amount of heavenly source qi while keeping the Flesh Regrow technique active. Inside his sea of willpower, the golden book started flipping rapidly. This process seemed to be taking much longer than usual.
Finally, when Su Yu was convinced he was going to fail, a bright golden light erupted from the book and absorbed all the death qi in his body.
A brand new page was activated.
