Song Shuhang immediately stretched out his hand, handing a list of items to the fairy maiden. On this list were all the items that the members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group wanted to buy, items that generally couldn’t be bought through ordinary channels.
Fairy Almighty Seller was elated when she saw the long list of items—the bigger the transaction and the more precious the items, the more profit she would make.
Her eyes swept across the list, quickly scanning all of the items on it while checking if she had an inventory of them.
Song Shuhang asked, “Fairy, do you have all the items?”
“You don’t need to worry… Although some of these items are relatively rare, I do have them in stock,” Fairy Almighty Seller said calmly. “And even if I didn’t have the goods on me, I could still arrange for them to be brought over at a later date. As long as you have enough spirit stones, you’ll be able to get what you want.”
Song Shuhang smiled and nodded. “Fairy, please help me calculate the price of the treasures on the list. We can settle the bill right away.”
This time, as he didn’t have treasures that Fairy Almighty Seller needed urgently, he would have to rely on Senior Yellow Mountain, Sage Monarch Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, Senior Spirit b.u.t.terfly, and the other seniors to settle the bill.
…In addition, he had also noticed the Eastern Spring Pavilion’s fragments which the fairy had mentioned just now. It sounded like it matched the Palace of Summer, the Southern Autumn Temple, and the Palace of Winter in style. Could it be that the Eastern Spring Pavilion was the palace of the Great Eastern Emperor?
Fairy Almighty Seller said, “No problem, I’ll calculate the price for you.”
As she spoke, she noticed that at the end of the list of goods, there were seven relatively common ‘natural treasures’, which belonged to the kind of things that a cultivator could gather if they searched carefully.
Fairy Almighty Seller asked, “What’s with these last treasures?” The seven ordinary natural treasures lowered the value of the entire list by a notch.
Song Shuhang replied, “These seven treasures are the ingredients I need to make the ❮Braised Heavenly Tribulation❯. I need them to complete the first 32 steps and process the tribulation lightning.”
“❮Braised Heavenly Tribulation❯? You captured the heavenly tribulation to cook it?” Fairy Almighty Seller asked. When she heard of the dish called ‘Braised Heavenly Tribulation’, she was unexpectedly able to stay completely calm.
This probably had something to do with her occupation. As a disciple of the Almighty Merchant, she was someone who conducted business all across the universe; the people, creatures, and things that she encountered would quite often be beyond most people’s imagination. Therefore, her ability to accept novelties was outstanding.
“Yes, and the ❮Braised Heavenly Tribulation❯ is just the simplest one in the menu. This dish only uses Third Stage tribulation lightning,” Song Shuhang introduced.
“It sounds good. It should have a pretty good value,” said Fairy Almighty Seller. Afterward, she took out a laptop before typing the words [Profound Sage Tyrannical Song + Braised Heavenly Tribulation + Heavenly Tribulation Menu] into a line on the laptop.
This laptop was connected to the Virtuous Network, and the information entered by Fairy Almighty Seller would be stored in a specific area of the Virtuous Network for her and the Almighty Merchant to reference.
This information was also the basis on which she and her master were able to conduct business across the universe.
In case someone wanted to eat a dish from the ❮Heavenly Tribulation Grand Banquet❯ in the future, she could contact Song Shuhang and order a dish from him.
Fairy Almighty Seller said, “Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, you really are a good business partner.”
Then, she took out a calculator, and entered a series of numbers on it. “The treasures in this transaction are mostly at the Fifth and Sixth Stage Realms, while there’s a small amount of Seventh Stage treasures, so we’ll use Sixth Stage spirit stones for this trade. This is the total, and I’ve already included a discount in this. Do you have enough spirit stones? Although this is not the first transaction between us, I don’t accept credit.”
Song Shuhang said solemnly, “Fairy, do you think I’m someone who will owe others a debt without having any money?”
Fairy Almighty Seller stared at Song Shuhang, and said affirmatively, “You are poor.”
“Fairy, you… are right!” Song Shuhang clapped his hands vigorously, a smile on his face. “I’m penniless. Right now, I can’t even bring out a single entire Sixth Stage spirit stone. Moreover, I still owe someone an entire spatial magical treasure full of Eighth and Ninth Stage spirit stones.”
“Goodbye, see you never again!” Fairy Almighty Seller put away the calculator while fuming with anger, getting ready to blacklist Song Shuhang.
“Fairy, don’t be in such a hurry. The seniors behind me are all rich,” Song Shuhang hurriedly said. “Senior Yellow Mountain, Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, Senior Spirit b.u.t.terfly, and everyone else, please come settle the bill. As for the seven ingredients at the end of the list, I’ll have to request seniors to pay for that for me. I’m currently out of spirit stones.”
Senior Yellow Mountain stretched out his hand, calmly brought out nine cosmos bags from his pocket, and threw them boldly at Song Shuhang. He mainly did this because he could no longer stand up properly, so he couldn’t do anything other than give Song Shuhang spirit stones in such a pretentious manner.
Song Shuhang used his psychic energy to gently catch the nine cosmos bags. It felt really good to be hit in the face with spirit stones. The only regretful thing was that these spirit stones did not belong to him.
It was only rich people like Senior Yellow Mountain who would casually bring nine cosmos bags filled with spirit stones when going out.
Song Shuhang opened the cosmos bags, counted the spirit stones, and paid for the items.
The moment she received the spirit stones, Fairy Almighty Seller’s expression instantly changed from anger to joy. Her beautiful eyes twinkled like stars, and the smile on her face was like a blooming flower, her countenance so bright that it was quite literally s.h.i.+ning.
She and the Almighty Merchant were indeed of the same line of business; their face-changing skills were exactly the same.
They were likely the only people with such high strength whose faces would brighten up so much from a few cosmos bags of Sixth Stage spirit stones.
“The payment has been received.” Fairy Almighty Seller put away the spirit stones. She then turned around, and transferred out the items from a spatial gate before having them land in front of Song Shuhang. “Please check your items.”
Song Shuhang turned his head, and shouted, “Senior Phoenix Slayer, Senior Lychee, all of you who are still sober, can you come and help me confirm the items?”
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to check the items himself; it was just that he didn’t recognize the majority of the treasures.
His cultivation-related knowledge was honestly still too low.
Fairy Lychee rubbed her eyes and came over with Phoenix Slayer to help check the items.
Song Shuhang chatted with Fairy Almighty Seller while the seniors were looking through the items. He wanted to see if he could get any information about the Eastern Spring Pavilion’s fragments from her.
Since he felt that he couldn’t be too obvious while looking for this information, he first raised another topic. “Fairy, do you have high-level resurrection magical treasures on you? The kind that can be used by those at the Sixth Stage?”
The previous set of Resurrection Gold Coins had been of great use to him.. He would definitely rate it 5-stars.
