Urban Invincible Overlord

Jiang Jun and Hai Lingfeng couldn't help but furrow their brows.

It turned out that the Sect Master had been hesitating because of this matter.

Both of them remembered that when Hai Mo and Yan Wei returned, they mentioned this issue, but after half a year passed, the two of them had forgotten about it.

In their subconscious, this was a minor issue, and they even had a strong misconception that all the resources on Earth could be taken by the Lingxiao Sect at will.

"Is there progress in the expansion of the transmission channel over there?" Hai Lingfeng asked.

Jiang Yao shook his head.

Jiang Jun said, "Last time I personally went over and took a look. The experts in Core Formation and Fake Pill from the Flame Moon Sect, the Great Dao Sect, and the three major families were all over there researching. Among them were some quite accomplished in formations and rune tao, yet they had no clue about expanding that transmission channel."

Hai Lingfeng sighed and said, "So, for a long time to come, we still need to adhere to this mode of peaceful coexistence with Earth's cultivation world?"

Jiang Yao nodded and said, "Indeed."

Hai Lingfeng pondered slightly and said, "In fact, for us, the Lingxiao Sect, this might not be a bad thing. If Core Formation Stage cultivators can pass through, the situation on Earth will no longer be something that only our Lingxiao Sect can control, and the secret of the genetic elixir might be exposed early."

Jiang Yao said, "Exactly. Considering the importance of this matter, for now, we should endure it and make some trades with that kid from Earth. Besides, we have the upper hand in these transactions."

Jiang Jun also nodded and said, "With the current cooperation model, the Flame Moon Sect, the Great Dao Sect, and the three major cultivation families also benefit, so they can allow us to lead everything. However, once they discover the existence of the genetic elixir, under great temptation, they would feel that what they have gained is too little, which would be disadvantageous to our Lingxiao Sect."

Jiang Yao sighed, "Therefore, we must maintain our cooperation with Earth. Once we secretly grow strong, even if other forces learn about the secret of the genetic elixir, we will have the confidence to contend with them."

Jiang Jun and Hai Lingfeng nodded silently.

Jiang Yao continued, "Therefore, we need to negotiate a price now. If that kid Yang Fei thinks the price we offer is unfair, he might become disgruntled, and then the supplied genetic elixir would be insufficient, hindering the development of our Lingxiao Sect."

Jiang Jun said, "According to the Sect Master's view, what price is appropriate?"

Hai Lingfeng also looked at Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao smiled wryly and said, "These days I've thought a lot, and indeed it's difficult to set a price for this item. If we price it too low, that kid Yang Fei surely won't be happy and may restrict our supply of the genetic elixir under the excuse of insufficient production. However, if we price it too high, our Lingxiao Sect might not be able to bear it."

Jiang Jun and Hai Lingfeng nodded silently.

This issue indeed requires careful consideration.

The Lingxiao Sect is a major sect with numerous disciples. Although the industries are many, if the expenditure is too large, any disruption in funds would impact the entire sect's operations.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Jun tentatively said, "Why don't we use the spirit stones earned from other trades on Earth to purchase the genetic elixir?"

Jiang Yao said helplessly, "How much genetic elixir can these spirit stones buy? Pricing is the key."

Jiang Jun cleared his throat and said, "According to the standard of the large bottle of genetic liquid medicine that the kid gave last time, we set the price at ten thousand top-grade spirit stones per bottle?"

Hai Lingfeng nodded and said, "This price is very fair."

Jiang Yao chuckled and said, "I also think it's very fair; in fact, slightly less would be more fair. But, have you both considered whether Yang Fei would agree? The spirit stones he tributes annually, which we receive at the Lingxiao Sect, amount to about two hundred seventy thousand. So, if we just exempt his tribute, we'd get twenty-seven large bottles of genetic liquid medicine each year? I fear he would not agree to such a deal."

Jiang Jun and Hai Lingfeng smiled awkwardly, realizing indeed that price was too low and Yang Fei might not agree.

If the effects of the genetic elixir were exposed, the two believed that even if a large bottle of genetic liquid medicine were exchanged for a million top-grade spirit stones and other equivalent goods, there would be many in the cultivation world willing to buy it.

So the price of ten thousand top-grade spirit stones for a large bottle of genetic liquid medicine is indeed too low.

"How about a hundred thousand?" Jiang Jun gritted his teeth and suggested a price that he felt was a bit painful.

At least for trading with Earth's cultivation world people, he felt this price was too high and would make one's heart ache.

Hai Lingfeng remained silent, looking at Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao sighed and shook his head, "Guessing like this serves no purpose. We must send someone to probe that kid's intentions. I feel that kid isn't too interested in spirit stones; what he needs is probably elixirs and other cultivation resources from our side."

Hai Lingfeng said, "Right, Earth is rich in spirit stones, so that kid wouldn't care about spirit stones. We should exchange other cultivation resources."

Jiang Jun decisively said, "Immediately let Hai Mo and Yan Wei go talk to him. We need to gather as much of this genetic liquid medicine as possible."

Subsequently, Hai Mo and Yan Wei took a large amount of cultivation resources from the elixir room and material storage room and returned to Earth.

Upon seeing these two juniors from Lingxiao Sect head to Earth again, people from the Flame Moon Sect, the Great Dao Sect, and the three major cultivation families exchanged glances, harboring some suspicion in their hearts.

Why are the people of the Lingxiao Sect going to Earth so frequently?

Is it possible there are other secrets between them and Earth's cultivation world?

However, chiefs from various sects and families had already discussed with the Lingxiao Sect's Sect Master, and this place was under Lingxiao Sect's jurisdiction. Lingxiao Sect's willingness to share the benefits obtained from Earth with other sects and families, proportionally, was already a major concession. Several major forces could receive a great tribute of top-grade spirit stones annually without any effort, and they were already satisfied.

So although there was suspicion, they did not show it or ask questions.

As Core Formation Masters, they also wanted to continue growing. Staying at this transmission channel without being able to expand it was a waste of time, so if nothing changes in a while, they plan to leave.

When Hai Mo and Yan Wei reappeared on Earth, a year and a half had already passed there.

The two arrived near White Jade City and, as they approached, they suddenly sensed something and showed expressions of surprise.

"In such a short time of half a year, someone here in Earth's cultivation world is already in Foundation Establishment?"

"Let's go take a look."
