Chapter: 5457

Thinking of this, Dragon Siji immediately opened her mouth to say, "Mr. Leaf, I don't want to chat with you about nothing. If you sell me this Elixir Cauldron, I can give you a very generous compensation that can ensure your family's prosperity for the rest of your life."

Leaf Chen laughed and asked, "Miss Dragon, can you try to come up with a price? Let me see if it's really as generous."

Dragon Siji looked at Leaf Chen, her face bearing an air of haughtiness, and said, "If you give me this Elixir Cauldron, I can pay you one hundred million USD on the spot!"

In Dragon Siji's view, one billion USD to anyone would be a huge sum, and for most people, it would be a figure that they wouldn't even dare dream of. Her offer was already as sincere as can be.

However, Leaf Chen just smiled after hearing this offer and said, "I didn't expect Miss Dragon to be so generous."

Dragon Siji said emotionlessly, "My offer is only valid until the end of today's morning, so Mr. Leaf if you want to make a deal at this price, please hurry up and bring over the elixir cauldron."

Leaf Chen waved his hand and laughed, "Miss Dragon, anyone who wants this elixir cauldron has to start with one hundred billion USD, and I need to verify the funds first. There's no way we can proceed without one hundred billion USD in cash."

"What did you say?!" Dragon Siji was suddenly taken aback and then questioned, "One hundred billion USD?! Mr. Leaf, do you think money grows on trees? Do you know what one hundred billion USD is?"

Leaf Chen laughed, "I know, of course. I'm not hiding it from Miss Dragon. One hundred billion USD is just the starting price. You need to bring out one hundred billion USD first, and we can only discuss this matter further. As for how much money we can negotiate, there's no ceiling."

Dragon Siji thought Leaf Chen was intentionally trying to provoke her, and she was furious.

To Dragon Siji, it was rare in her lifetime that someone would refuse her, let alone someone from a poor background. Not to mention that she had grown up in the Taoist tradition and was both the darling of her family and the favorite disciple of the previous patriarch of the True Realms Sect, who spoiled her rotten. She grew up walking on air, with even the dogs of the True Realms Sect not daring to look at her sideways.

It's just like having a gem in one's palm, yet Leaf Chen keeps bumping into walls in front of you. This makes it hard for her to accept it.

So she said to Leaf Chen, "Mr. Leaf, what do you need to do before you're willing to part with that cauldron?"

Leaf Chen saw that although she was two years older than him, she seemed completely lacking in social experience, so he decided to give her a lesson.

Right away, Leaf Chen deliberately looked her up and down with a flippant expression, saying, "How could I possibly ask for your money like this? If you really like that cauldron, just take it. I don't want any money from you. Just remember that you owe me a favor."

Dragon Siji saw the mischievous glint in Leaf Chen's eyes and guessed he was intentionally provoking her. Her expression grew even colder, and she said sternly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Leaf. Your good intentions are appreciated, but I never owe anyone a favor! Just name your price!"

Leaf Chen had already guessed that Dragon Siji would say this, so he deliberately smirked and said, "Oh, Miss Dragon, you're saying too much, aren't you?"

Dragon Siji said with an air of pride, "I'm Dragon Siji, and I always keep my word. I never make big promises!"

Leaf Chen chuckled mischievously and opened his mouth to say, "Is it making big promises or not? Let me try and see."

Dragon Siji furrowed her brow: "What do you mean?"

Leaf Chen said with a smile, "Just extend your hand, Miss Dragon. I'll show you a palm reading."

"Oh, scoundrel!" Dragon Siji shouted loudly: "I didn't expect you to be not only smooth-tongued but also so scheming!"

Leaf Chen smiled: "Miss Dragon has misunderstood. I don't mean to take advantage of you. I just want to verify whether your words are true or not."

Dragon Siji gave a cold snort and said between her teeth: "I am Dragon Siji! At any time, I will never bluff!"

Leaf Chen nodded: "Then Miss Dragon, extend your hand. You can see the results in one minute." JrNovels.com
