Qin Tian was able to get ahold of all this information because he purchased them from the system.
This Lin Yi guy is a protagonist with over 6000 Luck Points.
Such a high number certainly drew Qin Tian’s close attention.
So during the time when they were chatting, he spent 500 Villain Points and purchased Lin Yi’s background information to have a rough look.
…
“What if I say, I must buy this?”
Qin Tian’s words shocked everyone.
This wasn’t how he usually acted.
To cause trouble over just a stone? This didn’t seem like something Qin Tian would do.
A moment of silence followed.
Chen Yang stopped picking stones and came over.
With a stone in his hand, he asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Mr. Qin, what are you trying to say?”
Lin Yi frowned and ignored Chen Yang.
The only thing that mattered to him right now was that spiritual stone.
Since he learned that Qin Shijie was Qin Tian’s son, he naturally knew Qin Tian’s surname.
Qin Tian spoke, “This item is available for sale. Now that it is in my hands, even if you are the boss, I can purchase this if I really want, is that not the case? As for the mistake your worker made, that has nothing to do with me.”
“Are you saying that you will forcefully buy it?” Lin Yi frowned even more.
Qin Tian didn’t reply, “Anyways, now that this is in my hands, I like this stone a lot. Name a price.”
To him, spiritual stones were useless, but after learning Lin Yi’s true identity, how could he let him have the stone??
This is important to Lin Yi, and he is the villain.
The sole job of the villain is to take what’s important away from the protagonists.
Even if he has to steal, he will make sure this stone never leaves his hand.
The crowd grew even more confused.
The first one to ask was Chen Mengmeng.
“Uncle Qin? Is that one really valuable?”
“Yeah, dad, is that thing really worth that much?”
Qin Shijie was also just as curious.
Su Zhengyang was also rather confused, “For him, I don’t think any stone of any value should push him this far?”
“Yeah, true!”
“Then what’s going on?”
Su Yanran tried to explain, “I think, maybe Uncle Qin has his own reasons?”
As the crowd discussed, Chen Yang gradually learned what was going on.
Lin Yi was the boss here. He doesn’t want Qin Tian to purchase the stone he is holding right now, but Qin Tian insists that he will buy it no matter what.
Chen Yang sank into thoughts.
He looked over towards the stone Qin Tian was holding, and was stunned in place.
Spiritual… stone?
Why is there a spiritual stone here???
……
Under normal circumstances, spiritual stones should look no different from ordinary stones.
Only when cultivators place their hands on them would they feel their specialty.
Other than that, they look just like stones the size of an ostrich egg.
Even cultivators must look really carefully to even spot the slightest difference, let alone ordinary people.
Chen Yang only knew that this was a spiritual stone because he had a similar one at home.
Right now, Lin Yi is refusing to sell it, and Qin Tian is insisting on buying it.
Does this mean that Qin Tian also discovered that this is a spiritual stone?
Could Qin Tian also be a cultivator?
He already figured out that Lin Yi was a cultivator through the short interaction just now, so he could understand Lin Yi’s intentions.
But Qin Tian…?
How is this possible?
Chen Yang was doubtful of his judgments.
After all, anyone would find it hard to believe that such a wealthy businessman could be a cultivator.
Cultivators are extremely hard to achieve, requiring years of dedicated hard work.
Lin Yi also seemed to have sensed this.
“Mr. Qin, it seems you must be in this same field as well?”
“Same field?”
Qin Tian raised his eyebrows, then replied, “Sure, you can think of it that way.”
“Then, in that case, I’ll gift this stone to you for free!”
With a wave of his hand, Lin Yi said very generously.
Spiritual stones are extremely rare.
Usually, cultivators who have one will often become the assassination target of other cultivators.
It is certainly an item that is beyond rare.
Now that he suspects Qin Tian is also a cultivator, it is natural for him to insist on purchasing it.
So, Lin Yi, who has not recovered to his prime yet, has no other choice but to temporarily allow Qin Tian to have it.
“Free?”
“No way~”
Lin Yi’s words shocked everyone again.
He’s giving the stone away for free now? I thought it wasn’t for sale!
What’s going on?
Despite everyone’s shock, Qin Tian just gave a playful smile to Lin Yi.
“I hereby thank Boss Lin for your generosity, I suppose I should say thank you?”
“No need to thank me. When I come to visit you in the future, treat me to a cup of tea, and that shall suffice.”
Although Lin Yi hasn’t fully recovered to his prime yet, the aura he gave off was no weaker than any of the bigwigs here.
“Visit me in the future?” Qin Tian squinted his eyes.
Did he mean that he would come to trouble me once he recovers? Dream on!
“Boss Lin, I do not like long contracts. If you would like tea, I can treat you to some today.”
Today?
I barely just began to recover, and my spiritual energy is barely that of an Innate Realm initial stage.
After a slight moment of thinking, he returned to normal.
“Mr. Qin, my sincere apologies. I do not have time today, let’s do another day.”
Without waiting for a reply, he quickly turned and left, as if he really was afraid Qin Tian might bring him tea right on the spot.
“Mm, fine then.”
Qin Tian nodded thoughtfully, “I’ll let you go for today.”
“……”
Lin Yi almost tripped on the spot.
“This brat, your death wish will be granted!”
