28: Chapter 28 News of the Beastman Holy Spring 28: Chapter 28 News of the Beastman Holy Spring “It certainly has a unique flavor,”

Zhao Guang took a bite of the grilled meat in his hand.

Alright, this time it finally felt edible.

Though the rough and simplistic preparation method left Zhao Guang with an indescribable feeling, especially since there wasn’t much seasoning.

What’s more unbearable is that they had no means at all to remove the gamey taste.

But, no matter what, it was ultimately swallowable, and Zhao Guang took another bite with tears in his eyes.

If he couldn’t return, he might actually consider starting a restaurant business in this world.

“Lord Zhao Guang, the commodities you’ve brought this time are plentiful and pleasing, although the spicy liquor was a bit sparse.

However, these seasonings will last us quite a while.

The refined salt you brought should be enough for our military camp to use until next year.”

The elder sat down next to Zhao Guang, looking up at the sky with a gleam in his eye.

“With these items, life at our military camp and for our tribe will be a lot better.

We truly owe you our gratitude this time.”

“Not at all, not at all, it’s just mutual benefit; a normal trade.

Besides, you guys are my brothers,” Zhao Guang looked at the head full of white fur and reluctantly offered insincere praises.

“I believe you now.

I was too superficial before.”

The elder patted Zhao Guang’s shoulder, his eyes revealing a hint of guilt.

Such a good person, and to think I suspected him of ulterior motives.

The elder who had inquired about the prices on the human side knew well that the goods Zhao Guang brought this time were excessively generous and far beyond their purchasing power.

“Um, have you started your cultivation practice yet?” the elder suddenly asked, somewhat awkwardly.

“Not yet, but I’ve found a way.

I plan to exchange for the Micro Light Breathing Method.”

“The Micro Light Breathing Method, huh?

Heard that’s a top-tier Breathing Technique famous on the human side.

That’s some quality stuff.

Still, you’ll need to seek out more advanced Combat Energy cultivation methods in the future, otherwise it won’t be enough.”

“What?

Are you saying that one can’t switch to another method if the level of cultivated Combat Energy is low?”

The elder shook his head: “You can switch, but there will be a significant loss of Combat Energy during the conversion, and it may leave behind some hidden problems.

Your human physical constitutions are not as robust as ours Beastmen, and changing cultivation methods can easily lead to injuries.”

Zhao Guang learned another secret and pulled out a notebook to jot it down.

This was a notebook Zhao Guang had recently purchased, meant specifically to note down anything he found useful.

There’s wisdom in the saying, ‘A good memory is no match for a tattered pen.’ Zhao Guang found this to be very true.

“Only, you’re a bit old, and practicing this Breathing Technique at your age will likely take several years to master,”

“Is that so?

Then is there any way to speed up this process?”

The elder’s eyes lit up: “Of course, there is.

For example, our Beastman Holy Spring can strengthen the body and accelerate the pace of Combat Energy cultivation.

Not to mention Breathing Techniques, even normal Combat Energy practice would be hastened.”

A glint of realization flashed in Zhao Guang’s eyes; at last, they were getting to the heart of the matter.

Beastmen are suited to straightforwardness and ill-fit for such subterfuge.

Just from the elder’s awkward manner, Zhao Guang knew there was something afoot.

However, since it was to his advantage, he went with the flow.

“Then, where can one obtain this Holy Spring?” Zhao Guang feigned great interest.

“Where else?

It would naturally be with us Beastmen.

Yet, this Holy Spring is rare even among us, and if set in the human world, it would be considered a priceless treasure that no amount of money could buy.”

Priceless treasure, huh?

Seems like the price will be high, and my seasonings are going to get more expensive.

“Um, actually, there’s one more thing,” the elder began, turning awkward once again as Zhao Guang remained silent.

Being a Beastman always meant being forthright, and the elder had almost never asked for help in his life, let alone from a human.

It felt uncomfortable, especially since he knew he was in the wrong this time.

“If you have anything to say, elder, just tell me.

We’re brothers, after all.”

The elder rolled his eyes.

You call everyone your brother; the term has lost all meaning.

Gathering his thoughts, the elder ventured: “I was wondering if this time, perhaps, we could use the Holy Spring to cover part of the payment for the goods.

You need it too, right?”

Zhao Guang grinned: “I do need it, but I could simply hire some bodyguards instead of trying to increase my strength just a bit.

After all, hiring bodyguards wouldn’t cost much.”

“True, but no strength can compare to having strength oneself, right?”

Zhao Guang didn’t answer; he just stared at the Beastman elder.

The elder exhaled deeply: “If it were possible to accept other items, we wouldn’t be so worried, but you only want Gold Coins.

The amount we’ve gathered is obviously not enough to purchase all this.”

Those bastards greedily consumed the goods at first sight, not leaving any time for second thoughts.

When he realized what was happening, it was already too late to refuse, and he felt compelled to fulfill the purchase.

Besides, he didn’t want to offend Zhao Guang.

If he did, where would he get his beloved spicy liquor?

With that, the elder indulged himself in a sip, savoring it: “This batch tastes purer and packs more punch.”

Zhao Guang rolled his eyes.

That was stating the obvious—in fact, the aroma alone made him feel the effect.

“Alright, it’s possible to use the Holy Spring as a substitute, but as for the price…

as you know, although the Holy Spring is priceless and hard to buy for humans, it isn’t easy to sell, either.”

“I understand that.

We’ll make some concessions on the price,”

There’s no choice when you’re in the wrong and the other party holds the upper hand.

“There’s another thing, the Holy Spring needs to be transported from the rear, which means there could be a delay in our trade date.”

Zhao Guang frowned: “How much of a delay?” That was crucial as it concerned whether or not he could begin his cultivation.

Transcendence…

surely any Earth person would find it irresistible.

“Ten days.

It will be delivered within ten days.”

Zhao Guang breathed a sigh of relief; he truly didn’t want to spend years mastering the Breathing Technique.

If by the time he gained some strength he was old and grey, wouldn’t that be lamentable?

Although Zhao Guang hadn’t planned to use his capabilities for much, having them was quite different from not.

Who could resist the opportunity to become Superman?

If it were someone else in his shoes, they’d likely be even more anxious than he was.

“Fine, but this brings a significant risk,”

“We can’t go any lower on the price.

It would be troublesome to explain upon return,”

“That’s fine.

Can you gather various items, strange or mundane, useful or not?

I’d like to assess what I might need,”

This was indeed a strange request, but after some thought, it didn’t seem like too much to ask—why not just have others pay more attention?

“No problem, we will prepare it,”
