Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 777 - 269: The Taste of Being a Creditor

Yun Sheng glanced at Lan, who remained expressionless and seemingly understood everything.

In her heart, Yun Sheng couldn’t help but think that the old are indeed craftier. Senior Sister Lan was right.

Before Yun Sheng went to ask Liu Tongtian for a hundred million gold coins, Senior Sister Lan had already reminded her that if Liu Tongtian didn’t have enough gold coins on him, he could substitute them with items. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Lan had joined the Mainland Magic Elite Camp before Yun Sheng and knew that Liu Tongtian might not have enough money to repay the debt, but having been there for so long, especially with his excellent Blood Refining results and multiple ventures into the Magic Forest,

he must possess a significant number of high-level and super magic items.

All this was unknown to Yun Sheng, but Senior Sister Lan was much more informed, which is why she had reminded Yun Sheng early on to accept magic in place of gold coins.

Having just advanced to a Sky Mage and juggling positions like the owner of Little Ci’en Hall and Deputy Captain of the Sky Hunting Corps, gold coins were of little concern to Yun Sheng.

On the contrary, high-level magic, particularly super magic, would be more beneficial for Yun Sheng’s future magic cultivation.

Sure enough, left with no other choice, Liu Tongtian could only use what he had on him to settle the debt in gold coins.

"Then I won’t be polite," Yun Sheng said apologetically, but her hands were already rummaging through Liu Tongtian’s storage ring.

Upon inspection, she indeed found numerous Demon Beast Soul Stones, magic artifacts, and some well-preserved magic fruits.

Liu Tongtian truly was an upgrading expert. Not only did he participate in the Blood Refining in the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, but he also took on various tasks on his own, leading to a rich collection in his storage ring.

However, Yun Sheng herself had grown beyond her past self; her standards were much higher than before.

After checking, she roughly selected a few high-level magic items and some magic materials with a combined value of about thirty million.

This was still far from enough to cover one hundred million gold coins.

Senior Brother Liu, what should we do? These things of yours are of no use to me. It seems I have to expose your information to Qi San, that kid said he is willing to pay a high price for the exclusive details of what I’ve witnessed in the Dutian Beast Blood Realm," Yun Sheng said with a troubled look.

Qi San was known as the Elite Camp’s number one gossipmonger; once news got into his mouth, the entire camp would know in no time.

Liu Tongtian’s face became as dark as if it could drip water.

"Yun Sheng, don’t push people too far," Liu Tongtian glared at Yun Sheng fiercely, looking ready to tear her to shreds at any moment.

"Ah, Senior Brother Liu, please think fast if there’s anything valuable left on you. It’s getting late, and I need to deliver elixirs to Ye Beiming," Yun Sheng mentioned "Ye Beiming," and Liu Tongtian’s expression instantly sank.

After this trial, Ye Beiming’s strength had reportedly improved significantly, and even Liu Tongtian dared not offend him.

Watching Liu Tongtian’s reaction, Yun Sheng felt secretly thrilled; the name ’Ye Huli’ indeed worked wonders.

Liu Tongtian hesitated, dragging his feet, and reluctantly took out a Cold Jade Box, throwing it to Yun Sheng.

"Here, this will more than cover the remaining seventy million gold coins. Take it and scram. Stop being an eyesore," he said.

Seeing Liu Tongtian’s pained expression when he took out the item, as if suffering from a gout attack, Yun Sheng knew the contents of the Cold Jade Box must be extraordinary.

Cold Jade Boxes are typically used to preserve precious medicinal herbs or elixirs.

Upon opening the box, Yun Sheng saw a grey magic fruit.

This magic fruit was completely different from any of the attribute-specific magic fruits Yun Sheng had seen before, even with her Shennong’s Eyes, she couldn’t discern its purpose.

Gu Feng stepped forward to take a look and pinched it with his hand, "Senior Brother Liu, don’t bully us because we’re young and inexperienced. This magic fruit is worth 70 million gold coins? Aren’t you trying to swindle us?"

"You little brat, what are you talking about? I, Liu Tongtian, am an upright and honorable man. When have I ever swindled anyone? If you don’t know anything, don’t talk nonsense. That is indeed a magic fruit, and what’s more, it’s a Fossil Fruit with a fruit age of over three thousand years." Liu Tongtian was already upset about having to hand over the magic fruit, and Gu Feng’s comment made him even more annoyed.

"Let me see," Lan also stepped forward and checked the magic fruit in the Cold Jade Box.

Typically, magic fruits stored in a jade box can only be preserved for two to three years.

But Fossil Fruits are different. They fall from the magic tree due to some reason, bury into the ground, and are well-preserved. Even after thousands of years, they will not rot.

Generally speaking, Fossil Fruits are very rare. Lan has entered the Magic Forest many times and has never come across a Fossil Fruit.

"Even if this is a Fossil Fruit, it’s not worth that much money. Although magic fossil fruits generally contain rare magic, even the rarer high-level magic or super magic isn’t worth 70 million," Lan said matter-of-factly.

On the continent, high-level magic scrolls are generally priced between several hundred thousand to a million.

Prices of super magic scrolls are even higher, ranging from several million up to tens of millions.

Even if the price of a Fossil Fruit was a tier higher, it would only be one or two million. 70 million is indeed an astronomical figure.

"Hmph, women’s opinions. If I say that this Fossil Fruit was found near the area of the Emperor Tree in the Holy Tree District, then you tell me, is this Fossil Fruit worth 70 million or not?"

"!"

Upon hearing this, Lan couldn’t help but take a few more glances at the Fossil Fruit, her hands slightly trembling.

Yun Sheng, Gu Feng, and Qi listened without understanding.

It was only after Lan explained that they came to understand.

Previously, the Great Elder had taken them into the Magic Forest and mentioned that the forest was divided into the Sky District, Holy Tree Area, and Imperial Tree District.

These three areas correspond to trainees and instructors below the Sky Mage, those at the Holy Sanctuary Mage King Level, and at the Magic Emperor Level.

Due to insufficient level, Yun Sheng and the others had not been able to enter the latter two areas.

However, Lan and Liu Tongtian were able to enter the Holy Tree Area because they were already at the Holy Sanctuary Mage King Level.

And the Holy Tree Area just happens to be adjacent to the Imperial Tree District.

That is to say, there is a certain possibility that this magic fruit could have rolled over from the Imperial Tree District.

"As everyone knows, there is only one Emperor Tree in the Magic Forest, and the magic fruits on it are extraordinary. Those were left by the first few masters at the Magic Emperor Level. The magic fruits there are at the very least super magic, and with some luck, you might encounter Destruction God Magic," Liu Tongtian said irritably.

Liu Tongtian might look rugged, but his character is fairly decent. What he says is mostly true.

Destruction God Magic?

Yun Sheng’s heart skipped a beat.

"Yun Sheng, it’s entirely up to you whether to take this magic fruit or not," Lan sighed, reluctantly putting down the Fossil Fruit.

After all, there is not a single mage who would not be tempted upon hearing about Destruction God Magic.
