Chapter 2963: Do You Understand Me?
The twins would be lying if they said they didn't expect it might happen. However, for a place that doesn't know about Stellar Energy, it wouldn't be surprising if Ariana had no interest instead. The question was, should they worry about it?
The twins looked at each other and then at the Fragment. The answer was obvious. "It can be done, but we want this Ore."
"This..." Ariana was afraid they would ask for that. After all, she still needed the ore for her own purposes. "Can it be anything else? First of all, if you take it away, wouldn't your Body Cultivation Technique be useless?"
Rean shook his head. "You are mistaken. The energy we are absorbing from it is present everywhere, just like Spiritual Energy. It's just that this Ore's concentration is much higher. However, it is a finite amount. Once you absorb everything, the Ore will have no use for us anymore. It is up to you to believe, but we already took away 20% of the Ore's reserves." "Also," Roan continued from there, "Our Body Cultivation Technique is worth a hell of a lot more than this Ore. There will also be a need for extra payment, but we can set it with Rank Five or Six Spiritual Stones. And that's just because I'm in a good mood."
Rean looked at Roan. Was there ever a time when Roan was in a good mood? That seemed like the greatest lie of all time.
"Sure it can't be worth that much, can it?" Ariana could tell the Body Cultivation Technique was amazing, but she didn't believe it was that impressive.
Roan approached the woman and extended his hand. "Give me your hand."
Ariana's expression turned dark. "Do you think you can take advantage of me like that?"
Roan's mouth twitched. "Fuck you, brat. Who the hell is interested in you? You are in the Middle Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm, right? We will do a very simple test. You will use your cultivation to try to push me back, while I will use nothing more than my Raw Physical Strength."
Ariana was taken aback. Not that Roan said fuck you, but because he called her a brat. Sure enough, Roan's young appearance was definitely not his real self. That didn't matter, though. She, too, wanted to give it a try. "Fine! I will start suppressing my cultivation to the same Realm as yours. Then, I will gradually increase it."
"That's more like it." Roan had no complaints there. If she used her Middle Stage Elemental Transformation Realm from the start even the Second Grade Starlight Body wouldn't be able to push back.
Ariana was shocked beyond belief. "How can a body be this strong?! Doesn't that mean you can fight Saint Realm experts if you use Spiritual Energy as well?"
"It is not that simple," Roan shook his in response. "The difference in Spiritual Energy power is just too great. I wouldn't have trouble with Soul Transformation Realm experts, though."
Ariana retrieved her hand and looked at it, trembling. Finally, she looked at the Ore and took
it.
*Zush!*
Immediately, she threw it to Roan. "It is a deal. The Ore is yours. I will also add another 3000 Rank Five Spiritual Stones to the table. I will be honest as well. I think 3000 Rank Five Spiritual Stones is too cheap for this technique of yours. I've never even heard of something this ridiculous, let alone seen it. Unfortunately, my status in the Royal Family is a little special, so this is the most I will have to offer. On top of this offer, I will also give my word to help you in the future if the chance presents itself. How about that?"
Rean smiled, and Roan nodded. "That will do it. However," Roan snorted and his cold aura spread, "what about the guys you sent after us after you left the auction house? Their killing intent was pretty obvious."
Ariana felt a chill on her back. For a moment, she felt like she was looking at a demon instead of a young boy. "That's right. I intended to get rid of you, but that's because I didn't want anyone to know about the fact I bought the Ore. Since the Ore is not with me anymore, I have no reason to do the same."
"No reason?" Rean, who was just observing, didn't believe that. "This Body Cultivation Technique should be reason enough, no?"
Ariana didn't have an answer for that. "What can I do for you to believe me?"
Roan looked at the Ore and shook his head. "You don't need to do anything. I will just give you
one piece of advice. If you want to be alive in the future, I better not find trouble coming from you. Do you understand me?"
