Chapter 1593
1593 Extortion?
Unfortunately, although his wishful thinking was good, Ling Chuxi was not a person who was easy to talk to. If someone respects me a foot, I will return the favor ten feet. If someone offends me a foot, then it would not be as simple as returning the favor ten feet.
You dare to trick me, see if I don’t trick you until you vomit blood!
“Sect head Tao, do you think our golden core sect is a doctor? Treat him just like that? Seeing that we’re of the same generation in martial arts, I won’t charge you for the needle and finger techniques, but the Supreme-grade medicinal pills secretly passed down in our golden core sect are refined with hundreds of exotic flowers and rare herbs. As the sect master, you can’t possibly let us suffer a loss, right?” Said Ling Chuxi with a smile that was not a smile.
LAN Xinyu and the others widened their eyes at the same time and looked at Ling Chuxi excitedly.”‘It’s starting. The real show has finally begun. Old man, how dare you plot against Ling Chuxi? just wait for your death!’
“Alright then, just tell me how much you want.” Tao Xingzong disapprovingly said.
“We’re all of the same generation in martial arts, so I’ll take your price. This Supreme-grade pill of ours is made from a thousand-year-old purple green vine, a hundred-year-old flesh Lingzhi, a human-shaped Fleeceflower Root …” Ling Chuxi listed down the names of the herbs one after another without even taking a breath.
Tao Xingzong’s expression changed slightly. Every time Ling Chuxi announced the name of a medicine, his eyelids would Twitch. What thousand-year-old purple green vine, hundred-year-old spiritual meat ingot, human-shaped Fleeceflower Root, all of them were rare medicinal herbs. To think that she could say it out loud. Tao Xingzong understood that Ling Chuxi was clearly trying to extort him.
“Alright, just tell me how much you want.” Tao Xingzong interrupted Ling Chuxi’s voice. It had only been a short while, but he could no longer suppress the pain, and his head began to ache again.
“It should have been 10300 blue jade crystals, but after rounding it down, I’ll just charge you 10000.” Ling Chuxi pretended to pinch her fingers and said generously.
10,000 blue jade crystals! Gasps could be heard from the crowd. Even if the surging wave sect had some assets, they would probably be severely injured if they took out 10000 blue jade crystals.
“Hahahaha, you’re good, Ling Chuxi. You’re good, golden core sect. Do you really think that I’m a soft persimmon that you can pinch? 10,000 blue jade crystals? how dare you ask for that!” Tao Shizong was so angry that he laughed and roared.
“Sect leader Tao, you’re in the wrong here. If you want someone to treat you, of course you have to pay for it. The other party has offered a price. It’s fine if you’re not willing to treat you, but you can’t force them to treat you for free. Just now, sect leader Ling said that the Supreme grade pill is worth a lot. Ten thousand blue jade crystals is already a good deal for you. Why are you still so ungrateful?” Before Ling Chuxi could say anything, the middle-aged man who seemed to be acting just now jumped out again to fight for justice.
“Well said. If you don’t want to treat him, no one is forcing you to treat him. What are you blabbering about?”
“As the head of a sect, you don’t even have this bit of bearing. I really don’t know how you’ve lived for so many years.” One should never underestimate the appeal of Shiyi. As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, someone in the crowd gloated and echoed.
“Sect leader Tao, if you don’t want to treat me, then forget it. However, just now, you only had a headache and a back pain, which is still easy to treat. If your entire body starts to ache in a while, it won’t be so easy to treat.” Ling Chuxi looked at the angry Tao Shizong and laughed in disdain.
“Ling Chuxi, don’t think that you can threaten me. I really don’t want to treat this illness.” After hearing the words from the crowd, Tao Xingzong became angry and said.
