182 Deal

"Thank you." Jin Rou received the prize as he deserved its win. After all, he won without using his godly eyes. He won by just using his senses that were being used to appraise an item.

"No problem. Though I do not know if the prize is already enough." Owner Bu's tone was now filled with respect and admiration towards Jin Rou as he finally caught the far outline of Jin Rou's mysterious identity, "If that's not enough, I can add another million or two of rubies for you."

"No, the amount is already enough for me." Jin Rou declined, "The amount is already too much for me to handle so I don't need any more than this. Besides, you can save your money for more important things. I mean, you need money to purchase goods from your suppliers, right?"

"That's true." Owner Bu nodded, "But my staff is the one managing everything, so I don't usually take care of these things. Besides, he could do the job efficiently and time-saving.

"I see." Jin Rou smiled, "So is there anything else that you want to confirm from me?"

Although Jin Rou already knew that there was still a single reason left, he wanted Owner Bu to tell it himself.

"Ah... Right, I can not lie in front of your might, Youngmaster." Owner Bu smiled wryly and answered, "This old man is just curious how did you manage to see that kind of stone in those thousands of scrap stones without holding any one of those."

"Oh, that?" Jin Rou put the teacup down and answered, "As someone who is half-step from Celestial Master Appraiser Realm, I know you have already tempered your eyesight to its maximum. Or at least, almost maximum."

"That's right. That's also the reason how did I manage to discover that you have chosen something unbelievable." Owner Bu said, "But that's not something I could find with thousands of scrap stones in front of me. I cannot find it there even I take all my time searching there."

"Well, that's true for normal master appraisers. But since you have tempered your eyesight so much, discovering it for a while would be the best outcome, and the worse would be you'll just take a lot of time." Jin Rou smiled and added, "I believe that within an hour or two, you can already figure it out."

"Pretty impossible." Owner Bu shook his head, "Although I'm always confident and proud of myself because of my contributions during my peak youth as an Immortal Emperor, but when I see your appraising skills as if everything was very under your control?I know that even I fight with all my strength, the winner was still the same in the appraising competition. It was already my good luck that I was able to meet you before I enter seclusion."

"You cannot say it's impossible. There's nothing impossible in the world of cultivation." Jin Rou said, "By the way, I heard that this world has a very amazing and mysterious seaside. I would like to go there and breathe some fresh air. Do you know where is that?"

Truth be told, Jin Rou wanted it because he had a motive for going there. Besides, he really wanted to go and enjoy the seaside for a while. After all, he did not enjoy it way back then in Farna's Mortal World.

After a short silence, Jin Rou opened up, "Of course, as a payment for the information, I can also help you ascend to the Outer Heaven. No need to tell me why. How about it?"

Owner Bu dazed off for a moment and laughed, "Youngmaster, you are going to take a loss with this deal, how about I serve you? At least until I have my regrets and grudges were collected."

"No need to serve me." Jin Rou said, "Just settle everything there. Besides, I will just help you ascend there, you still need to go on your own. Of course, your matters, I won't touch them."

"Just like I said, I don't know if I can't survive that world without the backing of someone powerful sect? And judging from you, Youngmaster, you are from a very powerful and influential sect in the Outer Heaven." Owner Bu concluded.

"Well, I can sell you a favor of accompanying you as long as once you're done with what you wanted to do, you will go back and here and enter seclusion to calm your dao heart." Jin Rou said.

"That, I can assure you, Youngmaster Jin." Owner Bu said without further hesitation. After all, he just needed someone like Jin Rou who knew the Outer World. But little did he know that Jin Rou did not just come from the backward world like the Outer Heaven. If he ever realized that Jin Rou was the overlord of this universe, what would his reaction be? Maybe he'll die due to extreme shock.

"Then, good." Jin Rou smiled.

Owner Bu flicked his finger and a paper appeared, giving it to Jin Rou and said, "This is the exact location of the mysterious seaside you want to go. I know that this is the place since this is the most restricted place in Grivexia and I entered it thousands of years ago. With Youngmaster's strength, I know that this place is not a problem at all."

"Alright." Jin Rou received the paper and put it in his ring and stood up, "I will be going now, Owner Bu. I will return here once I'm about to go to the Outer Heaven. Please do take care of yourself."

Without further waiting, Jin Rou just left the room without waiting for Owner Bu's response.

"Although that Youngmaster is a bit arrogant, his arrogance had its own words." Owner Bu sighed and smiled, looking up and muttered under his breath, "I will return to that place, soon. Wait for me."

Jin Rou and Zin Shi were now walking outside the market. Their walk was just filled with silence as Jin Rou did not bother saying anything. But Zin Shi knew that he was not in a bad mood, maybe he just wanted to breathe the air here.

After a long silence, Jin Rou finally said, "I am going to the Sea Continent."

Grivexia was divided into two continents, Land and Sea. And the wideness of each continent was so big that it would take even, an Immortal Emperor, days to travel the whole continent.

"You're going now?" Zin Shi asked.

"Yes." Jin Rou answered, "But I will be back before the Showdown of the Beasts. We will both watch it together, right?"

Zin Shi did not know what to say. She wanted to ask if she could come with him. However, there were no words that came out of her small mouth. It was as if her tongue was tied, unable to talk.

Jin Rou smiled while looking at her. After which, he pulled out a book from his inventory ring and handed it over to Zin Shi, "This manual is something that my personal maid created. This suits you very well. As long as you can comprehend everything here, your strength would go by leaps and bounds. Trust me."
