Chapter 1049 Expensive Price

"Let's return to the topic..." Davis cast his glance at the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Sp.a.w.n. It still kept snickering like a fool, but at his point, even Xiao Meili was not afraid of it since she realized that it could not do anything to her despite its cringe-worthy appearance.

"How much does this cost?"

Xiao Meili gulped as she hesitated, "A-Alchemist Davis... It's too expensive for its grade..."

"How much?" Davis repeated.

Xiao Melli raised her hand and stretched five fingers, "Fifty Peak-Level Spirit Stones..."

Davis pursed his lips and his brows knitted with a frown. The price was almost d.a.m.n near a trash-quality Low-Level Emperor Grade Treasure!

"Is it not acceptable to pay with 50,000 High-Level Spirit Stones?"

"A-Alchemist Davis...!" Xiao Meili became fl.u.s.tered, "The conversation rate is more than five times, and that would make it 250,000 High-Level Spirit Stones, but even then, this Spirit Attribute Source is only sold for Peak-Level Spirit Stones. It's stated there in the jade slip."

'Won't sell...' Davis inwardly laughed.

"Alright, I won't trouble you since you're just a salesperson. Call the Grand Elder who seems owns this place. I'll settle this with him rather than the manager..."

Not negotiate with the manager but the Grand Elder?

Xiao Meili went blank at the other party's blatant disrespect but recalling that Alchemist Davis was like a person with immense status right now, she knew that his rude behavior would be more or less ignored.

So, she simultaneously felt like she wouldn't be penalized for trying to contact the Grand Elder. Instead, it was evident that the Grand Elder might applaud, and perhaps even reward her for her efforts. She inwardly berated herself, thinking about why she didn't consider this earlier.

"Please wait for a moment. I cannot directly contact the Grand Elder, and neither can I contact the Grand Elder without gaining approval from the store's manager."

Apologizing with a bow again, Xiao Meili took out a messaging talisman.

"Manager Yuven Alstreim, A-Alchemist Davis wants to see Grand Elder-"

"Grand Elder has already entered the Spirit Attribute Source Hall."

Xiao Melli froze.

She instantly got to the point as she didn't want these esteemed guests to wait but was suddenly told by the manager that their Grand Elder was already here. She came back to her reverie and looked towards in the direction of the entrance.

However, no one appeared in her sight.

She blinked and noticed that there was a hazy presence moving to and fro like a ghost.

Someone was behind her!

"!!!"

"Eek!~"

She shrieked and retreated, thinking that it might be the Poison Essence!

"Hahaha!" The unabated laughter of a person echoed as if satisfied with her reaction.

Xiao Meili became aghast as her footsteps faltered! She almost slipped and fell towards Alchemist Davis, but she quickly controlled her balance and flew towards the side!

However, she was unable to stop herself from ramming into the wall!

"!!!"

Davis felt exasperated, but his hand was lifted up as he pointed at her.

Was being saved by him so disgraceful that she'd rather headb.u.t.t the wall instead?

Xiao Melli held her head in defense and closed her eyes, bracing for the impact, but she felt a sponge-like material suddenly stop her. She raised her head and looked at the layer of soul force that protected her from colliding towards the wall in wonder, but she momentarily became pale, knowing that she had almost become a cripple if it weren't for this soul force protecting her.

Cras.h.i.+ng towards the wall that was made from Emperor Grade Ores!? She was courting death! At that speed from the abrupt and unskilled maneuver, she knew that she would've got her skull cracked if she had crashed into the wall.

She turned around and instantly knelt, "Xiao Meili is extremely apologetic for the problems that she had caused!"

"It's... thanks for saving me, no?" Davis shook his head before he turned to look at the Grand Elder.

"Do you like to scare young maidens, Valdrey Alstreim?"

"Hahaha!" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim laughed once more, "It wasn't my intention to harm her!"

Young maiden?

Hearing Alchemist Davis describe her like that, Xiao Meili practically went red, but she also turned aghast as she heard him call the Grand Elder with his name.

That was a serious crime!

Her lips quivered, wanting to step in and moving the topic, but before she could even react, their lips were already moving.

"So, you accept that you tried to scare her?"

"Indeed... Am I not allowed to scare my people?" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim was all smiles, not bothering about his name being blatantly used by a young generation expert.

Davis chuckled, "You are..."

However, his expression changed, "Were you testing me?"

"Haha, Alchemist Davis, you're overthinking." Grand Elder stopped his laughter, but his expression was still as all smiling as ever.

"You seem to be in high spirits? Is it because of Nora Alstreim?" Davis spoke in a nonchalant tone.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim couldn't help but nod his head, "It's already been two months. I wonder if Nora managed to become that person's subordinate..."

His eyes were dreamy, but Davis promptly ignored.

"In any case, I'm here to purchase these Poison Essences, so I'd like you to sell them to me in High-Level Spirit Stones."

"Alchemist Davis..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's lips widened, "My Verdant Alstreim Treasure House only sells Spirit Attribute Sources in High-Level Spirit Stones, even if it is at the Earth Grade. One High-Level Spirit Stone for those Spirit Stone Attributes that doesn't reach the required value."

"Of course, we also accept High-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments for those that reach the required value. High-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments go for an exchange rate of two times the amount of High-Level Spirit Stones approximately, so using one High-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragment means using twenty thousand High-Level Spirit Stones at the minimum."

"What are you trying to say? Are you saying that if it's High-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments, you will sell it?"

Davis became a bit annoyed. Why not just get to the point?

"No, I still wouldn't."

"Then why-"

"Alchemist Davis, I want to gift you all of the Poison Essences that we have!"

Xiao Meili became shocked!

Gift all Poison Essences!? Absurd! Nothing of that sort happened at this level!

Davis's brows imperceptibly narrowed, "I don't understand. You just told me that you would sell all these for High-Level Spirit Stones but not this Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Sp.a.w.n, but now, you suddenly changed your tune, saying that you're willing to gift all the Poison Essences to me?"

"Accurately, I want to gift you all the Poison Essences we have other than this..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim pointed at the Pestilent Dragonfly Dust Sp.a.w.n.

"This is something my grandfather captured. My grandfather is one of the late Ancestors of the Alstreim Family and also Ancestor Dian Alstreim's little brother. I admire my ancestor and cannot easily or freely gift or compromise on something my ancestor had risked his life to capture."

"This is also why this Poison Essence is kept in the last room. Only after capturing it was this particular section built to host Spirit Attribute Sources till Low-Level Emperor Grade, and only because of my late ancestor's weight am I able to retain these Spirit Attribute Sources."

"Otherwise, do you really think the Alstreim Family will allow a single person, even if that person is a Grand Elder, to own and sell a plethora of Spirit Attribute Sources at the Sky and King Grade?" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim shook his head.
