Chapter 972 To Treat a Country as a Group of Hounds
"Mr. Chen, you are such a pleasure to deal with! I will ask my men to bring the Spiritual Stones now!"
Amasa Hito beamed. He had not expected it go so smoothly.
"That\'s the way I do business! As long as the price is right, I will not exploit you. So that when you have a need, you will come to me again!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled back.
"Come to you again?" Amasa Hito asked in astonishment. "Does that mean that Mr. Chen has other artifacts of similar value?"
"I do! I have plenty of them. All of different values!" Chen Xiaobei said, "If any of you are interested, you can bring me your Spiritual Stones. The artifacts I have on hands will surely be able to satisfy each of your needs!"
"That\'s great!" Amasa Hito was thrilled. "I have a fairly large collection, but I have never been able to get my hands on any godly items! Let\'s set a time to meet so that I can take a look at your collection!"
"We want to come with! Even though we are not as privileged as Mr. Amasa, we can still spare about ten Spiritual Stones!"
"Yeah! We\'d like to see it too!"
"Mr. Chen, set a time with Mr. Amasa first. We\'ll go with him to avoid troubling you!"
Even though the others were proven wrong by Chen Xiaobei, they were very enthusiastic antiquarians. Often, they gathered at Amasa Hito\'s place. Hearing that Chen Xiaobei had some artifacts naturally, stirred their curiosity. If they too see something they like, they would also be willing to spend a large amount of money to buy it.
"Alright. How about tomorrow? I will confirm the location with Mr. Amasa later today!"
Chen Xiaobei grinned.
"Alright!" They were all in agreement.
Chen Xiaobei accepted the 300 Spiritual Stones and the Sui Generis Dragon artifact, and left Amasa Mansion together with Cang Jingu.
......
Back in Li Xiang\'s villa.
Chen Xiaobei asked Li Xiang for a place he could display the artifacts to be sold to Amasa Hito and the others.
But Li Xiang objected, "Bro Bei, forgive for being blunt but those artifacts belong to our country! How could we sell it to the Japanese?\'
Chen Xiaobei merely smiled and said, "Heh, didn\'t you tell me that the Japanese\'s ancestors are Chinese? That\'s not considered selling to outsiders, right?"
"Bro Bei, that\'s not right!" Li Xiang frowned. "The Japanese had invaded and terrorized us! Their crimes were heinous! An abomination to both god and men! How could you see them as your own people?"
"They are not our people, they are our dogs!"
Chen Xiaobei\'s tone was light but with an air of dominance.
"Our dogs?"
Li Xiang could not understand what Chen Xiaobei was thinking and why he had said such a thing.
To treat a country as a group of hounds! What madness!
It was no wonder that Li Xiang found it difficult to understand. He did not know that Chen Xiaobei planned to feed the Heavenly Dog Biscuit to the Japanese emperor and prime minister! After that, they would become Chen Xiaobei\'s loyal hounds! And when that happened, the entire country would also become Chen Xiaobei\'s loyal hounds!
"Li Xiang, there are some things you don\'t understand. And I don\'t want to have to explain myself." Chen Xiaobei said, "All you need to know is that I \'sell\' these artifacts to my dogs for safekeeping! When the time comes that I need them back, all I need to do it summon them!"
"That…"
Even though he did not really understand what Chen Xaobei was had told him but he was deeply shaken!
When the time comes that he needed them, all he had to do was summon them!
How overzealous!
Li Xiang was persuaded. He believed that Chen Xiaobei would be able to do what he had said he would so he nodded and answered, "I understand. I will send my men to find a place. It\'ll be done by tomorrow morning!"
"Alright. I\'ll go heading back to my room. Inform me if there\'s any news."
Chen Xiaobei got up and went up to his room on the second floor.
On his bed, Chen Xiaobei took out his Green Jade Gourd and siphoned all the Spiritual Qi from 318 Spiritual Stones into the gourd.
"Previously, there were 618 Spiritual Qi in the gourd. It\'s not enough to make my Witch Dragon Transformation to last more than a minute!" Chen Xiaobei counted. "To save Demonic Fox and avenge her, I will need even more than this… The more the better…"
Spiritual Qi was like fuel for a race!
Every step Chen Xiaobei took in the future would require Spiritual Qi. The further he needed to go, the higher he wanted to fly, the more Spiritual Qi he would need!
He was in desperate need for Spiritual Qi!
He was willing to do anything to acquire Spiritual Qi!
"I hope they will buy some of the artifacts tomorrow… Right now, let me take a look at the Sui Generis Dragon artifact!"
Chen Xiaobei composed himself and retrieved the Sui Generis Dragon artifact from Infinite Space Ring.
"Xiao\'er! Come out and eat!" Chen Xiaobei commanded.
Xiao\'er crawled out, enraptured. "What food is it? What food?"
"There is a hidden compartment at the bottom of this bronze cauldron. Bite a hole in it first," said Chen Xiaobei.
"Alright!" Xiao\'er replied, jumped into the Sui Generis Dragon artifact and began chewing with a chomp.
Very quickly, Xiao\'er had made a hole in the bottom of the Sui Generis Dragon artifact.
A dark purple ray shot out from the hole and the temperature in Chen Xiaobei\'s room lowered drastically.
"It\'s so cold! That\'s strange, why does my body feel cold?"
With Chen Xiaobei\'s body, he should not be affected by heat or cold.
But right now, he felt a clear, bone-deep cold that made him wanted to put on more clothes!
"Does this mean that the Dark Purple Rosary inside the hidden compartment is a Spiritual Item with special ability?"
Chen Xiaobei\'s eyes lit up.
"This is Dark Purple Crystal! It\'s a type of Yin attribute rare delicacy!"
Xiao\'er exclaimed. His beady eyes stared hungrily at the Dark Purple Rosary like a reincarnated hungry ghost.
"Dark Purple Crystal? This is a Yin attribute item! To evil spirit, this is their best food! If I\'m not mistaken, the Yin Qi inside Asama Yuki came from this evil spirit! It\'s attracted by the Dark Purple Crystal! As long as I kill this evil spirit, Asama Yuki will recover!"
Whoosh!
A sudden wind billowed!
