Chapter 5968: Who Doesn’t Want To Be A Prodigal Son? Six-step Saint Child’s reaction seemed reasonable. He and the king couldn’t muster this sum, not Edge Mountain Crone either. “I can’t take out five.” Li Qiye smiled and reached into his pocket, seemingly looking for something. “Hmph, mortal, know when to shut up.” Six-step had no patience and would have slapped Li Qiye into a pile of meat if it weren’t for the others nearby. “It’s alright, Young Noble.” Radiant Master bowed toward Li Qiye, wanting to save him from further embarrassment. “Fifty million is not a small sum, drop it.” Furious Wind Saber King thought Li Qiye’s ignorance was disgraceful to the Chu. “Ah, here it is. Sigh, I normally don’t carry this junk in my pocket but there’s one hidden.” Li Qiye took out something and said. “Buzz.” It was a piece of crystal emitting waves of light. It resembled a crystalline spire and dragon cries could be heard from the light. Upon closer inspection, one would find tiny runes surging within the crystal. “What is this?” Furious Wind was stunned. “This is…” Six-step had no answer but could see its extraordinary nature. “A dragon crystal?” Edge Mountain Crone, the oldest among them, became startled. “No, it’s an ancient dragon crystal!” Incense Daoist calculated with his fingers and blurted out. “An-ancient dragon crystal?!” Radiant Master gasped. “The mythical crystal? Are you serious?” Six-step stared at the crystal in disbelief. “Indeed it is.” The old demon was prepared for something absurd but not this. Dragon crystals were much more precious than ordinary refined jades. An ancient one was on a different level. Ancient Step could have dragon crystals but an ancient one? Impossible. “I heard our Insane Court had some in the past.” Furious Wind murmured. Their Insane Court’s treasury had mountains of refined jades. Dragon crystals and other treasures weren’t rare. “Wh-where… did you get this ancient dragon crystal?” Furious Wind stammered while staring at the crystal in Li Qiye’s hand. This was his first time seeing one. “Who knows, this is just a waste of space in my pocket.” Li Qiye said. Everyone was left speechless and thought he was being too arrogant. “Your ancestor left it for you?” Furious Wind thought about the legendary ancestor of the Chu. This mortal might truly be her descendant and this was a display of affection. “Hmph, so just a blessing from an ancestor.” Six-step stared at Li Qiye with disdain, albeit with a sour taste in his mouth. “Do you have any?” Li Qiye retorted with a smile. “You!” Six-step turned red and had no response. This infuriated him because he had nothing close to an ancient dragon crystal despite his astronomically higher status. He became jealous because if he had a similar ancestor, he could become a Grand Emperor. As for this mortal, he would become nothing more than ashes soon enough. Furious Wind felt the same jealousy and bitterness. He surpassed his peers due to his talent, becoming a sect master at a young age. Today, a single crystal from this mortal was more valuable than his entire wealth. He could work for a lifetime and never come close to touching an ancient dragon crystal. This unfairness could drive others mad with jealousy. “Consider this fifty million refined jades, it should help with your sect’s urgent matter.” Li Qiye placed the crystal into Radiant Master’s hand. “...” She was stunned by this act. A mortal possessing this ancient crystal was shocking enough, but to give it away to a stranger? “Your Longevity Valley has truly fallen. In the past, the entire world competed for one bottle of pills.” Li Qiye shook his head and let out a sigh. Once she regained her wits, she bowed deeply in his direction and said: “Thank you, Young Noble. We will definitely repay you.” She knew it would not be easy repaying this sum and didn’t want to owe a favor to a mortal. After all, he might be dead before she could come close to repaying it. “You don’t have to pay it back.” Li Qiye waved his hand, displaying his generosity. Furious Wind and Six-step were dumbfounded. The ancient crystal certainly could be exchanged for fifty million refined jades. If they had this many jades, they still wouldn’t lend it to her, let alone give it away as a gift. The treasuries of all mortal kingdoms combined didn’t amount to this. Their face became twisted with jealousy. They never had a chance to be so generous before - being rich enough to casually give away fifty million jades must be an otherworldly feeling. Geniuses such as themselves felt humiliated for being poorer than a mere mortal.
