Cursed, passive point, 1.
“You are really joking. As a matter of fact, I’ve already given you a discount…”
The receptionist paused and then yelled while holding his head with his hands, “Crap? Have I given you a 90% discount?”
“Shh! Shh!”
Xu Xiaoshou hastened to hush him, wondering how he became a sales receptionist even though he acted so impulsively.
Was it necessary?
It was just a discount.
Xu Xiaoshou checked the contents in his ring and found that he only had a bit more than 30,000 spirit crystals in it.
It was not enough for the item.
He had no choice but to take out Zhang Xinxiong’s ring. He took out a fraction of the large pile of spirit crystals in it. He put the spirit crystals in the bag provided in the miscellaneous area and handed it over.
“It was a pleasant experience to work with you. I will come again.”
The receptionist was totally dumbfounded.
He wondered what a weird customer Xu Xiaoshou was because he had not only taken his item at a discounted price, but he also had stolen his lines.
More importantly, he had no intention to use the lines in the first place. This customer couldn’t be expected to return.
Mu Zixi took it for granted. In fact, since she witnessed the way her senior brother scavenged treasures from Elder Sang last time, she thought what he did that day was not a big deal.
A big transaction worth half a million spirit crystals had finally been completed. However, the receptionist didn’t feel any joy. His face was even devoid of the professional smile.
As for the job of taking Xu Xiaoshou and Mu Zixi for an after-service tour of the shop, he had no energy and motivation for it.
The receptionist was very eager to send this troublesome customer away.
He wrapped up the purple crystal ball and handed it over to Xu Xiaoshou, saying with a smile, “Congratulations on acquiring such a great treasure, the Perceptive Dragon.”
Having taken the crystal ball, Xu Xiaoshou was hesitant as he looked at the small white cat squatting on the crystal ball, drooling nonstop.
Pah!
He had finally knocked the small creature away flying.
There was no need for it.
He bought the purple crystal ball for the sake of his junior sister. He had no interest in the likes of spirit beasts.
The creature didn’t look that cool. Moreover, it was so small that it would take some time to raise it.
Speaking of time…
If he had time, he could wait for the spiritual beast to grow up.
The little white cat’s demonic purple eyes dimmed. It paused after making some somersaults in the air. Tears could be seen in its eyes.
The cat beast seemed to have the intention to approach him, but Xu Xiaoshou knocked it away with his palm. It seemed that the cat beast was so shocked that it dared not to approach him again.
Seeing Xu Xiaoshou hit the air and hearing a “pah” sound, the other two were astonished.
“Dear customer…”
“It’s the initiation!”
He paid no more attention to the little white cat. Without turning his head around, Xu Xiaoshou asked, “Did you say that this Perceptive Dragon can sense the nearby killing intent?”
The receptionist had no doubt about it and nodded. “Yes, but there is no one else here. Even if you use it here, it won’t make any response.”
No sooner had the receptionist finished the remark than Xu Xiaoshou had filled it with the spiritual source. The purple crystal shattered again.
In the purple starry sky, the white dragon came out again flying in the air. However, a second later, the body of the dragon turned red and became immensely irritable.
Its body seemed to have doubled, and its eyes were growing red. The dragon was dashing back and forth with its whiskers dancing around.
A patch of the purple starry sky looked eerily blood red.
The red patch was so thick that the blood seemed to be oozing out.
Xu Xiaoshou saw this and fell silent. He looked at the receptionist and asked gravely, “What’s going on?”
“This, this…”
The receptionist was dumbfounded. He wondered why nobody had sensed such a strong killing intent and how well the assassins had concealed their intent.
Were they professional assassins?
Xu Xiaoshou narrowed his eyes, “Didn’t you say that no one else was here, and there was basically no reaction from the dragon?”
“Yes, it’s true!”
The receptionist frowned incomprehensibly and explained, “Plenty Gold Company has the best protection system in place to guarantee the safety of its customers. Assassins can’t enter.”
He paused when the receptionist saw the doubtful expression in Xu Xiaoshou’s eyes. His heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that this thing had detected his inner intent?
“Customer, you are mistaken!” the receptionist cried. “I really don’t have the intention to kill you. This is absolutely a mishap!”
Xu Xiaoshou took a step back with a cautious expression showing on his face.
