Chapter 158: Transaction
"Gu He, what brings you here, kid?"
As Hai Bo Dong walked in, he went straight to sit beside Gu He with a calm expression on his face.
"You can leave for now," Hai Bo Dong instructed the steward who was nearby.
"Yes, Elder Hai." The steward immediately respectfully left the VIP room upon hearing this.
Gu He looked at Hai Bo Dong and, sensing the aura emanating from him, calmly said, "Congratulations, Elder Hai, on regaining your strength and returning to the peak."
This time, Gu He could clearly sense a difference in Hai Bo Dong. It seemed like the confident Ice Emperor from years ago had returned.
Therefore, Gu He speculated that Hai Bo Dong had taken the Revival Purple Spirit Pill, regained his strength, and found his lost confidence.
After all, every strong individual has their own demeanour.
"Your gaze is always so sharp, kid."T/his chapter is updated by
Seeing Gu He through with just one look, Hai Bo Dong couldn't help but be slightly stunned. A hint of helplessness appeared on his aged face.
Then, Hai Bo Dong continued, "I've instructed Tengshan to handle the matter you entrusted to me. It's unlikely that we'll receive any good news in the short term."
Hai Bo Dong assumed that Gu He's visit this time was related to the previous issue of the list, so he explained promptly.
The materials required for the Zong Breakthrough Pill are extremely rare. Even within the small Jia Ma Empire, it's challenging to gather them. Even the wealthy Miteer family couldn't accomplish it in a short time.
Gu He naturally understood this reasoning, but he wasn't in a hurry.
The Zong Breakthrough Pill was prepared for Yunyun. Considering Yunyun's current strength, reaching the level of a Nine-Star Dou Emperor would still take some time.
Gu He came this time to collect sixth-grade spiritual herbs, preparing to establish a medicinal garden in the valley behind the mountain for himself.
Thinking of this, Gu He smiled faintly and spoke slowly, "Elder Hai, you've misunderstood. I'm here this time for another transaction with you."
"Another transaction?"
Upon hearing this, Hai Bo Dong was somewhat surprised, looking at Gu He suspiciously, and said, "What scheme are you plotting again?"
Ever since encountering Gu He in the Tagore Great Desert, Hai Bo Dong felt like he had been led by the nose of him.
"Is there truly such a treasure in the world?"
However, after the initial shock, Hai Bodong, looking at the smile on Gu He's face, couldn't help but question it again.
After all, he had never heard of such a treasure as the Eternal Life Bead.
Seeing Hai Bodong's slightly doubtful expression, Gu He, not perturbed in the slightest, nodded and said, "Certainly. Because I have two Eternal Life Beads in my possession, along with that sixth-grade spiritual herb."
"You have the Eternal Life Bead?"
Upon hearing Gu He's words, Haji Bodong's face once again revealed a look of shock. Then, he thought of something, squinted his eyes, and calmly said, "What is your purpose in revealing information about this Eternal Life Bead to me?"
Although Hai Bodong coveted the Eternal Life Bead as described
by Gu He, he hadn't lost his reason entirely. After all, the authenticity of the Eternal Life Bead, as described by Gu He, couldn't be confirmed, and he couldn't afford to be in chaos for something that might be a mere fabrication.
"Elder Hai has keen insight."
Seeing that Hai Bodong quickly regained his composure, Gu He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that old foxes were indeed experienced. With a smile on his face, Gu He continued, "Elder Hai, I want to make a trade with you for the Eternal Life Bead. Are you interested?"
"Trading for the Eternal Life Bead!"
As expected, just as Gu He anticipated, even though Hai Bodong tried hard to maintain composure, the subtle fluctuations in his aura exposed his current state of mind, which wasn't as calm as it seemed on the surface.
After a moment of silence, the aura around Hai Bodong finally calmed down. He locked eyes with Gu He and said solemnly, "Tell me, how should we proceed with the trade?"
Hearing this, Gu He revealed a smile and looked at the serious Hai Bodong, saying, "It's simple—twenty plants of sixth-grade spiritual herbs, and I can give you one Eternal Life Bead!"
