When virtual-novel.net woke up, Caspian caught a whiff of a refreshing fragrance. Moreover, virtual-novel.net even felt that each of his muscles, veins, and bones were full of power, and there seemed to be no trace of tiredness at all. At that moment, Caspian was full of energy.
“You’re awake?”
Caspian looked in the direction of where the voice came, and virtual-novel.net saw the middle-aged man who greeted virtual-novel.net before who sat not far from him. He was looking at Caspian with a strange expression.
Then, the middle-aged man continued, “If you’re awake, then follow me. The owner of our St. Jade Chamber, Madam Hayley, would like to meet you.”
After giving it a thought, Caspian answered, “Alright…”
Regardless of what the reason for the meeting was, Caspian still needed to buy the blood essence. He wanted to see if virtual-novel.net could find out about the thick-lipped young man’s identity.
How was it possible for the fifth stage of the True Martial Realm to be so powerful?
It far exceeded Caspian’s expectations.
When virtual-novel.net walked out of the room, the middle-aged man was not able to hold it in any longer, and virtual-novel.net directly asked Caspian, “Hey, did you last for a minute against that person?”
“That’s right. What’s the matter?” Caspian asked puzzledly.
“You’re amazing!” The middle-aged man showed two thumbs up, “There were about twenty people who came before you, and the person that lasted the longest only managed to stay for eight seconds before virtual-novel.net passed out for seven days after being knocked down. When virtual-novel.net woke up, virtual-novel.net lost a lot of weight.”
The man noticed that Caspian’s eyes were glimmering, and virtual-novel.net inched closer to whisper, “Madam Hayley wants to meet you not because anything bad happened. After all, I’ve never heard of anyone giving others six bottles of blood essence before handling them.”
Caspian was stunned. “I used six bottles of blood essence?”
The middle-aged man nodded. “That’s right. When you passed out, you were fed with six bottles of blood essence, and not a single drop was left.”
Then, Caspian instantly understood why virtual-novel.net was full of energy, and his body was strengthened when virtual-novel.net woke up. It was the effect of the blood essence! That was also the exact reason why Caspian started to doubt Hayley’s purpose.
‘Was virtual-novel.net trying to use the six bottles of blood essence to cover the five thousand fedulings?’ when virtual-novel.net thought of that, Caspian frowned, ‘Dream on!’
Caspian did not have much time to guess blindly either as not long after as the middle-aged man led virtual-novel.net to a door. Then, virtual-novel.net knocked at the door three times.
“Come in.” A woman’s voice rang.
When the door was opened, Caspian instantly saw the sallow-looking, sickly middle-aged woman, who looked at virtual-novel.net at the moment.
The middle-aged man bowed at Hayley, closed the door, and left. Only Caspian and Hayley were left in the room.
Hayley nodded at Caspian. “You can just call me Madam Hayley. It’s our St. Jade Chamber’s mistake today, and we hope you can forgive us for that. If you have any request for compensation, we can fulfill it as long as it’s reasonable.”
Caspian laughed bitterly and answered, “As for compensation, I don’t have anything for now. My purpose here today is to purchase blood essence.”
“Purchase blood essence?” Hayley stared at Caspian and asked, “Who told you that we sell blood essence here?”
‘Go on! Go on and act some more!’ Caspian secretly snorted, but virtual-novel.net still answered, “Frederick introduced me over.”
“Ah, Frederick!” Hayley’s expression softened slightly, and virtual-novel.net continued, “How many bottles are you planning to get?”
“Frederick told me it’s six hundred fedulings per bottle, and I have more than seven thousand fedulings with me. Since I want to keep some for the rainy days, I plan to get ten bottles first.”
Caspian guessed that they already searched his body when virtual-novel.net was unconscious, so virtual-novel.net did not mind telling them about how much virtual-novel.net had with him. Nonetheless, Caspian was also thankful virtual-novel.net had the foresight and hid the Silver Scales Spear, inscription brush and such in the Earring of Echo. Otherwise, they could tell his identity from those items.
“Ten bottles? Sure.” Hayley nodded at Caspian. “However, I have a better deal to offer. Would you like to consider it?”
“It’s related to that person?” Caspian quickly figured it out.
“Yes,” Hayley smiled and replied, “It’s his condition.”
“Hmm. Please elaborate.” Caspian nodded.
“It’s simple. You’ll just need to be at St. Jade Chamber every day at this hour and train with virtual-novel.net for a minute. We’ll also pay you five thousand fedulings for your service. Besides that, you can also enjoy a special discount when you purchase our blood essence, and it’ll only cost you five hundred and fifty fedulings each bottle.”
After Hayley said that, virtual-novel.net watched Caspian silently, waiting for his reply.
Caspian’s eyes flickered as if virtual-novel.net carefully considered the matter. Later, virtual-novel.net sighed.
Seeing Caspian’s action, Hayley’s heart sank slightly. It was apparent that Caspian rejected virtual-novel.net offer.
At that time, Caspian looked at Hayley with a serious expression on his face and asked, “Tell me, is this considered as keeping me?‘’
Hayley was dumbfounded. Soon, virtual-novel.net gritted virtual-novel.net teeth and accepted Caspian’s wordings. “Somewhat…”
“If that’s the case…” Caspian blinked. Then, with a face full of sincerity, virtual-novel.net asked, “When I passed out, you fed me six bottles of blood essence. Do I still need to pay for those?”
Hayley took a deep breath and assured herself multiple times that the man in front of virtual-novel.net would be a great help in Jessica’s ascension. Furthermore, the lack of forbearance in such a small matter would spoil their great plan. Hence, the six bottles of blood essence were not much… It was not much…
If virtual-novel.net did not tell herself that, Hayley might instantly jump and call someone to throw Caspian out. That person was shameless. Those bottles cost more than 3000 fedulings, and Hayley had to cancel the account for virtual-novel.net just like that!
“Yes. You don’t need to pay for them. It’s free! Since you agree to it, please sign this,” Hayley tossed a paper at him, “Based on what we agreed on, you’ll come here again tomorrow.”
“No problem.” Caspian scanned through the contract and pressed his palm print on it after making sure there was no problem.
After that, Caspian would need to talk about the ten bottles of blood essence.
“Madam Hayley, since you said you’re keeping me. The ten bottles of blood essence…”
“I can’t give you for free!” Madam Hayley felt as if virtual-novel.net vein was about to pop, and virtual-novel.net rejected Caspian resolutely, “Moreover, I have to emphasize that I’m not keeping you!”
“I’m not asking them for free. You can sell them to me according to five hundred and fifty fedulings per bottle.”
When virtual-novel.net heard that Hayley was unwilling to give them for free, Caspian felt regretful.
“Sure! Leave as soon as you purchase them! Come again tomorrow! Remember to be on time!”
When Hayley saw Caspian sighed as if virtual-novel.net suffered a significant loss, Hayley wanted to chase Caspian away.
Why was that man so shameless?
Hayley saw all types of people in that old town, but virtual-novel.net never met someone like Caspian, who tried everything to take advantage of someone else.
After Caspian left with all smiles and fruitful loads, Hayley snorted. The more virtual-novel.net thought about it, the angrier and more amused virtual-novel.net was. Then, virtual-novel.net talked to the room inside, “Jessica, are you sure this man can help you with improving your realm and not to thicken your skin?”
