Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled! 319 Chapter 312: Pointed And Enlightenment!

The mysterious water bucket, despite its ancient origin, has been sitting on the shelf collecting dust for a very long time. He had endured countless ridicules and mockery from others specifically due to this bucket alone!

After all, who wouldn't go insane seeing the price tag on this bucket that was so preposterous?

No matter if it was from an ancient origin, it was still a useless bucket!

"My Lord... " Guo He almost bit his own tongue in disbelief. Previously, he said that anyone who would buy a bucket at such a price would be fools. Who would have thought that his Lord would be the one to buy it at the next moment?

"Yes. Isn't it just 10 Middle quality spirit stones? I think that this price is fair to be honest." Duan Li nodded firmly, founding the situation to be entirely normal.

In his opinion, the mysterious bucket from the Empyrean dynasty was a priceless antique given its excellent condition. In addition, this bucket was something that resonated with the Treasure box in his spatial ring. Clearly, the bucket that everyone seemed to look at in disdain was far from ordinary!

"This... well, if Esteemed customer here insist, then its sold for 10 Medium quality spirit stones!" Na Zem Xi hurriedly retrieved the bucket from the shelf and wrapped it like a coiling tornado, faster than anyone they had ever seen before. It appears that he was afraid that Duan Li would change his mind if he were a second late.

Meanwhile, seeing how efficient the seller was, Duan Li couldn't help but to nod his head again in approval.

This is the correct att.i.tude!

"Brother, are you sure about this? Even if you are rich, spending so much for a mere bucket.." Shen Lu sighed helplessly, unable to make sense of the entire situation.

It was not that he was afraid Duan Li would go pauper. After all, there was probably no one who could compare to the wealth of the Imperial Overseer of the Jiu Empire. It was just that he was wary that the infamous scammer in front of them would take advantage of this situation even more.

"Hehe Brother Shen Lu, of all the people that I met, you were the first one to vouch your support for me and I still remember that. This bucket.. while it may appeared to be useless at the moment, my eyes will never be mistaken!" Duan Li said with a confident expression as he stowed the item into his spatial ring. Naturally, he wouldn't be bothered to explain that something was resonating with the bucket.

Immediately after, the reaction from the Treasure box finally died down.

I'll investigate the relations.h.i.+p between the bucket and the treasure box given by Fei Jin Fang later on...

"Eh? Brother.. you mean.." Shen Lu gasped in surprise before he widened his eyes in comprehension.

Indeed! While Brother Duan Li might makes no sense sometimes, he was definitely no fool! Moreover, he seemed to be hinting on gifting me something...

"Does it really has more to it than just a bucket?"

Thinking along this line, Shen Lu and Guo He looked at each other before nodding, deciding to not talk about the matter any further.

Na Zem Xi, seeing how casually the masked man handed him 10 Medium quality spirit stones for a mere bucket as if they were pocket change, and witnessing the subservient att.i.tude of the two fellows behind the other party, immediately realized that the masked man in front of him was probably someone with a powerful background!

This was also the reason why he changed his att.i.tude to become more polite and addressed the unknown masked man from 'Brother', which he would usually call his customer with, to 'Esteemed customer'.

In his personal guide book, there were only three kinds of person that one shouldn't offend no matter what, but befriended with given the opportunity. One was the Emperor of an Empire, two was the royal family, and three was someone with an unknown background but possesses a non-chalant att.i.tude towards wealth, such that not even the word 'discount' exist in their dictionary!

For him, the third one was probably the most dangerous, which he categorized Duan Li into. After all, even the Emperor would at least frown in displeasure hearing such a ridiculous price of a mere bucket, but the masked man in front of him didn't even bat an eyelid to the price tag, nor asked for any sorrts of discounts and only had the looks of a curious expert!

Someone who could view wealth in such disregard was truly unfathomable!

Unbeknownst of the high evaluation that the seller was giving him right now, Duan Li scanned the other antiques in the stall with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Oh? Interesting! How much does that Katana cost?" Duan Li pointed to a thin, one-meter katana with only a single edge and long grip that was hanged on one of the wooden pillar of the stall.

Na Zem Xi swiftly broke out from his previously dazed state when he heard this question and quickly fawned over Duan Li.

"Esteemed customer truly has good eyes for weapon! That katana is also from the Empyrean dynasty from the unique agate decorating its hilt, and I happened to acquire it by luck whilst travelling in the desert." he said, glancing at Duan Li for a while before continuing, "While this might sound expensive to others, Esteemed customer must trust me when I say that this is really the price of this katana... it is 20 Middle Quality spirit stones!"

When Shen Lu and Guo He heard this, they immediately became incensed. Shen Lu gripped Na Zem Xi by his collar and was about to beat some sense into the latter when they heard the next sentence from Duan Li.

"Alright, I will buy it!" Duan Li said without a hint of agitation in his voice, before casting his glance towards the other weapons.

"..." the trio's jaw dropped to the ground.

For Shen Lu and Guo He, it felt like a lightning bolt had shattered a cliff inside their mind and they nearly spurted out blood, utterly caught unprepared by the tribulation. Even Na Zem Xi was now staring at Duan Li dumbstrucked!

"I'm rich! I'm finally rich!" Na Zem Xi secretly rejoiced in his mind before he escaped from Shen Lu's grasped and quickly wrapped the katana with an even faster speed than before!

However, just when they thought that Duan Li had enough of browsing because he was sighing, as if there was no more object that could pique and satiate his interest, a series of objects in the stall was being harshly pointed at.

"I want this, this, this one, that one and that one also!"

Duan Li began a pointing-spree with his index finger onto random objects inside the stall.

Pu!

At this moment, within the trio's imagination, it felt as though every object that was pointed by Duan Li's index finger had gained both liberation and enlightenment, to the point that they grew wings and flew to the nine heavens with limitless freedom!

Just how many decades did they spent sitting in that dilapidated stall while collecting dust and forming rust?

To survive dynasties after dynasties since their creation, yet only to become the wares of an unscrupulous merchant after being found, how could they not feel moved by Duan Li's actions of liberating them all like this at once?

One had to remember that they had almost given up hope of being owned by a new owner ever since they became the wares of this scam stall. After all, they were being sold at an exorbitant price, who in their right mind would buy them?

To them, Duan Li was like the majestic Emperor doing a sudden visit to their faraway village, and upon seeing their sorry state, had immediately issued an imperial decree of granting them the t.i.tles of n.o.bles on the spot!

Such actions would bring about total chaos in the court and many opposition would surely be voiced out by the ministers. Even sabotage and a.s.sa.s.sinations of important individuals in the shadows would be entirely possible!

But, how could they compare to this das.h.i.+ng Emperor in front of them?

Against the will of the Heaven's, all lips should just remain shut if they don't want their heads to roll on the ground!

However, this was but in the imaginations of the trio, a subtle effect from the incensed burner in the middle of the stall that seemed to be burning weeds, causing them to hallucinate a little.
