Chapter 604: Empty the Vault

Quong Ting teared up after being scolded by her father. She felt aggrieved after all that had happened to her.

Quong Po realized he had been too harsh and quickly explained in a softer tone, “The color of the runic equipment comes from the chemical used to dissolve the beast material. In contrast, the tesseract would break down the material directly without any additives. This is truly an advanced technology that we have not seen before. I have to admit that this is very useful to a master of concealed weapons like me.”

Quong Ting still felt dejected after listening to her father’s explanation but decided to swallow her emotions.

Quong Po then turned back to Qin Feng and said, “Qin Feng, this tesseract is very important to me. Are you willing to sell it to me?”

Qin Feng frowned and replied, “This is equally vital to me too, Master Quong.”

Quong Po was baffled. From his perspective, Qin Feng did not really need the tesseract. But that was only because he did not know how fast Qin Feng had and would evolve.

To keep up with his ever-growing strength, Qin Feng needed the tesseract to further hone his Verdant Emperor Saber as well as other equipment. Though at the moment he had yet to fully utilize the tesseract, it was not an item he would sell off easily.

“Master Quong, the reason I am showing this is not that I want to offer it to you. I am just letting you know that such a thing exists and would probably suit your needs,” Qin Feng said.

“My apologies. You would be of great help if you are willing to help me make customized knives. Please, this is very important to me. Maybe we can come to an agreement? What’s your price?”

Since Qin Feng did not wish to sell it, Quong Po could only propose a trade for the products.

But Quong Po did not know what the suitable price to offer was. This market was completely in Qin Feng’s grasp.

Qin Feng thought about it and said, “I don’t wish to take advantage of you but if I charge you too little, then you might feel like you are owing me a favor. Let’s settle on the market price—20% of the price of the materials used.”

This price had been fixed for a long time. A G-tier beast king material in Wanzhong auction would cost 5 million while turning it into a weapon would cost another 1 million.

It now depended on what grade of weapon Quong Po wanted to make.

Quong Po laughed and said, “That’s fair. I think you have already been too generous.”

Qin Feng smiled. “Mr. Quong, you better give it careful thought. These new knives are going to be your weapon for the rest of your life, and they come without any apparent weaknesses. It would be a waste if you go back to C-tier materials.”

Quong Po realized he had an important decision to make.

Indeed, it would be best to use the finest materials if his knives would have no risk of being taken away by his enemy. After reaching B7-tier, Quong Po’s vision had widened a lot too.

Most aptitude users wished to use equipment made from materials under the same tier. However, it was easier said than done. This was because it was usually difficult for an aptitude user to defeat a beast king from the same tier.

“You are right.” Quong Po had clearly made up his mind. He then said, “It’s already quite late. Allow me to invite you two to have dinner with me. As for the tesseract, we will get to it tomorrow.”

“Sure!”

After dinner, Qin Feng and Bai Li returned to the hotel.

Qin Feng took out the fruit given by Quong Po. Though Bai Li refused to take it, he insisted and pushed the fruit into her mouth. He took the other one and realized it tasted bitter and was hard to swallow.

“Little cunning fox. You knew the fruit would taste terrible. That’s why you refused to take it!” Qin Feng pouted and then drank a mouthful of water.

“Yucky. But Quong Po is really generous. This fruit probably cost a lot in the human market.” Bai Li could now evaluate things and knew that this fruit was a rare find.

Qin Feng nodded. “Quong Po had been a B-tier for more than thirty years. A concealed weapon is what made him famous but that is also his downfall. Since his weapon could be controlled by others’ consciousness, he has been avoiding conflict with people and focused on hunting beasts instead.”

You lose some, gain some. Though he could not absorb the beast’s energy and evolve like Qin Feng, Quong Po still managed to climb through the ranks steadily and reached the respectable B7-tier after surviving one after another deadly fight with the beast.

In fact, a beast would more or less leak out some energy after being killed. Even without absorption, being constantly exposed to the aura of a powerful beast would probably still help to strengthen one’s power. That could explain why Quong Po could attain such a high tier by hunting beasts alone.

“I see. Sometimes I am confused. Why do humans like to fight against their own kin? It’s not that you people have to fight over territory like beasts...” Bai Li asked.

Beasts liked to fight for territory but humans were social beings. It was indeed true that they did not need to fight to the death as some species did.

Qin Feng had no answer to Bai Li’s question. But he still needed to explain the reality to Bai Li clearly.

“I believe it all boils down to self-interest. Quong Po might have a lot of wealth by avoiding conflict with people. But he would have won much more if he had chosen to compete with others. Sometimes these things just develop naturally.”

Qin Feng lamented, “Take Fengli as an example. I don’t need to do anything now and could earn a lot by selling weapons alone. This will turn into a modal for me to buy other stuff to further improve myself. Most importantly, I could have all this without risking anything. The problem is, others would want what I have and live my life. That’s why the president from the Red Sun Corps wanted to kill me so badly.”

Bai Li nodded and seemed to have understood something.

“I see. You need to buy food for me, too! We have a lot of money now. I can also earn by myself now.”

Qin Feng laughed, “That’s why we are powerful.”

While talking happily with Bai Li, Qin Feng had no idea Quong Po was currently emptying his vault because of his suggestion.

Quong Po was rich but not one of the wealthiest. A few trillions of capital was common for a B-tier aptitude user. Nonetheless, it still took several years of saving and careful financial planning.

Guang Wei immediately went bankrupt after compensating 5 trillion to Qin Feng.

The material Quong Po was buying was unimaginably expensive too.

It was a B-tier beast emperor material.

Dusan Central City was a dangerous frontline settlement. Thus, plenty of valuable resources could be found in the market. Just recently, an A-tier had killed a B-tier beast emperor—an insectoid queen.

It was a gigantic monster with an impenetrable shell.

The material had since been put on sale but due to its giant size and exorbitant price, it was still hanging at Wanzhong’s warehouse waiting for its buyer.

Quong Po did not hesitate and spent 6 trillion on the shell and some of the finest power cores.

Not only that but he also needed to pay Qin Feng 1.2 trillion the next day. Quong Po instantly became a pauper after spending so lavishly on his future.
