Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Selling Wine and Overcharging (1)_1

"Oh," Mo Feng nodded, indeed, eating was the most important thing right now.

Next to him, Mo Ziqing and a few others heard Dugu Qianye’s words and felt they made sense, so they all lowered their heads to eat. The others, taking their lead, also subdued their emotions and bowed their heads to dine.

The four guards behind Yun Jin saw how excited the people below were because of the words of their Saint Heir and felt very proud. Their gaze swept over the Mors Empire and saw a scene of everyone bowing their heads to eat, which caused their brows to furrow.

His Majesty Cangqiong also noticed the reaction of Dugu Qianye and the others, and then looked at his own people who were too excited to control themselves, and he sighed inwardly, realizing the disparity indeed was large!

When the others settled down from their excitement to dine, Dugu Qianye had almost finished her meal. In the center of the dance floor, a group of dancers were performing, and some licentious men watched the dancers’ lovely figures with lascivious eyes. Others began to chat and drink in twos and threes. Having finished her meal with nothing else to do, she came over to Xie Ping, said she was going out for some fresh air, and then left the banquet hall.

By that time, the sun had already set, and the night had not yet fully descended. The colorful lights of the Imperial Palace had been hung up, and the interplay of colors was stunningly beautiful. Dugu Qianye walked around the palace, admiring the night view of the palace, and finally arrived at a lakeside pavilion. She sat inside, leaning against the railing, watching the lights reflected on the water’s surface. With her fingertip, she summoned a swirl of Phantom Power and struck the water, shattering the calm surface and the fragmented reflections.

"Come out," Dugu Qianye said, looking at her own creation, and suddenly spoke.

A figure emerged from behind some rocks not far away. He came to the pavilion but did not enter.

"What, you still want to take revenge for your brother?" Dugu Qianye didn’t turn around, casting another swirl of Phantom Power onto the water’s surface, once again disrupting the tranquil lake.

She had felt someone following her shortly after leaving the banquet hall, but without sensing any killing intent, she was too lazy to bother.

"You knew I was following you," the person spoke up, with a typically severe tone.

"Of course," Dugu Qianye turned around, leaned on the railing, and clapped her hands, saying, "Otherwise, why do you think I walked so far before taking a rest?"

The comer’s brows twitched slightly. So she had deliberately let him follow her for so long? He stepped into the pavilion, sat down opposite Dugu Qianye, and looked at her without speaking.

Seeing that he was silent, Dugu Qianye turned back and continued amusing herself.

Cang Jin watched the lake’s surface become disturbed and then still, over and over, and looked again at the person who seemed to be having great fun, his fierce gaze becoming blurred in the night.

"Why?"

Finally, Cang Jin broke the silence between them.

"What?"

"During the contest, you clearly intended to kill me, so why didn’t you in the end?"

"Oh, that? I felt like it."

Cang Jin was choked by Dugu Qianye’s response, not having thought of how to reply, when he heard her say, "Actually, an opponent like you, one who wants to kill me, should be eliminated for good, hmm, that’s how I used to handle things. But when I saw your eyes, I changed my mind. It was like looking into the eyes of a wolf, yes, wolf eyes. Ah, I’m still too kind!" Dugu Qianye said self-praisingly towards the end.

Cang Jin was stunned by her words. How could a person who had just effortlessly destroyed Liu Xing’s Phantom Power Source dare to claim she was kind?!

"Your strength is above mine; you must be a Phantom Ancestor, right?" Although it was a question, it was more of a statement.

"We don’t really have much of a grudge, do we? Here, let’s drink." Dugu Qianye did not answer his question but instead tossed a jug of wine to him. Then she took out a jug for herself, uncorked it, and took a big swig.

Cang Jin uncorked the jug, and the aroma hit him immediately. He took a drink and couldn’t help exclaiming, "Good wine!"

Of course, it was exquisite wine, brewed by Dudu following my instruction with modern brewing techniques and using the millennia-old Spirit Fruits from the Refining Demon Pot. The taste and richness were incomparable to any local wines here, and it could even increase one’s Phantom Power, albeit the effects were not very pronounced. If only it had been aged a bit longer, it would be even better.

The two drank in silence. Dugu Qianye thought of her grandfather, Grandpa Youwu, and her mother. Was she in Holy Sea City?

"Such a fine time and beautiful scenery, coupled with excellent wine, truly a great joy in life. I wonder if Yun Jin has the pleasure to join?" A smooth voice rang out; Yun Jin had arrived outside the pavilion unnoticed.

Cang Jin saw Yun Jin and stood up to invite him in. Dugu Qianye glanced at him and continued to drink. However, she pretended to take out a jar of wine from the ring, which was actually the Refining Demon Pot, and tossed it to him.

As Yun Jin opened the seal, he too was attracted by the rush of aromatic wine scent.

"I didn’t expect Young Master Baili to have such fine wine." Yun Jin took a sip and couldn’t help but praise it.

"I just happened to come across it," Dugu Qianye said.

"Just happened? Do you have more?" Yun Jin asked with a smile.

"Yes, 1,000 Gold Coins for a jar. Do you want to buy some?" Dugu Qianye said.

Hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, Yun Jin remained smiling warmly, but Cang Jin’s icy expression showed signs of collapsing. This jar of wine was almost priced like a third-grade Elixir! And the buyer was the noble Saint Heir himself. Normally, one might expect to courteously offer such wine to the Saint Heir for free, right?! Not only did she not give it away, she had the audacity to quote such a steep price!

"Of course, I’ll buy it. How much do you have?" Yun Jin said with a smile, his gaze hidden with indulgence as he looked at Dugu Qianye, though she and Cang Jin were unaware.

Looking mischievously, Dugu Qianye asked, "How much do you want?"

"I’ll take as much as you have."

"That won’t do, I still need to keep some for myself."

"Then I’ll buy half."

"Deal. Cash on delivery."

"Agreed."

Cang Jin listened to their conversation somewhat speechlessly. Seeing both of them were serious, he quickly spoke up, "I want to buy too."

Dugu Qianye glanced at him and said, "Sure. 1,200 Gold Coins per jar."

"Why is mine more expensive?" Cang Jin asked.

"The Saint Heir’s status is venerable, so he gets a friendship price, with a discount. Yours is the list price, so naturally it’s a bit more expensive."

"Alright then." Cang Jin replied somewhat helplessly.

With a wave of her hand, Dugu Qianye made 200 jars of wine appear. Yun Jin handed her 200,000 Gold Coins, then packed the 200 jars of fine wine into his ring. Dugu Qianye waved her hand again, and 100 jars appeared. Cang Jin handed Dugu Qianye 120,000 Gold Coins, then stored the wine away.

Seeing their rings stuffed full with jars of wine, Yun Jin and Cang Jin were both somewhat speechless. She indeed had a considerable amount to spare.
