Chapter 506: 506
When the mayor saw the Night Luminous Pearl, his eyes widened in surprise . He had guessed that Xue Wei had some treasures from the mortal world, but he would never have thought that he would see the thing which most ghosts lusted after all their lives .
His hand trembled as he quickly looked around; however, no one was observing them .
"Hide it quickly!" The mayor wanted this Night Luminous Pearl very much, but he was also aware that wealth could bring the downfall of a person .
If others found out that he owned one, someone would steal it from him, and he would undoubtedly end up dead .
Xue Wei had guessed that this item would be highly sought after, but he had not thought it would be this attractive to the ghosts . After thinking about the properties of the pearl, he understood . This was an unending fuel supply . No one would say no thank you to such a thing .
Xue Wei had many of these Night Luminous Pearls . They had been used in the Ascended Realm as lamps in the underground palace, and he had conveniently taken them with him .
He had at least a hundred of them, and the fact that they were priceless made him rub his chin in deep thought . It seemed that he would be able to achieve their aim much easier by accepting help from the stronger ghosts if he offered them one of these pearls .
The mayor was unaware that the pearl he thought was one of a kind, was actually quite numerous in Xue Wei’s bags . He quickly packed away the pearl in the ghost storage treasure, and took out a whole survival kit for Xue Wei .
It contained one hundred kilos of spirit liquid, a ghost storage treasure, a machine that could convert other ghosts and souls into spirit liquid, and numerous small gadgets that would make his life more comfortable in the Ghost Realm .
Lan was saying nothing as he rested on Xue Wei’s shoulder . He looked like an ornament, a machine, as beasts did not exist within the Ghost Realm, so no one confused him with an actual creature .
As the mayor happily left, Lan squinted his eyes . "You have quite a few of those pearls, don’t you?" he asked with a snicker in his voice, and Xue Wei nodded his head casually .
"There were so many within the Ascended’s Realm, how could I not take them all with me?" he asked .
The conversation was calm, but if a ghost had heard it, it’s heart would quake with fear .
"The underground palace was full of yin and death tools . I assume you took those with you too?" Lan continued, and Xue Wei once again nodded his head as he looked at his surroundings .
"I emptied everything everywhere I went in the Ascended’s Realm, not one treasure was left behind . "
"How fortunate . Someone less selfish might have left something for others to benefit, but that is quite a stupid way of thinking . These things might not have been useful for you when you took them, but aren’t they extremely useful now?"
Neither Lan nor Xue Wei was saints . They would do what needed to be done for their own progress, and while they would never hurt those who were kind to them, they did not care about others .
So why leave a whole treasury for others? That was simply stupidity .
"The merchant is selling all kinds of goods," Lan continued . "If I don’t remember incorrectly, the armory within the underground palace had quite a few death swords that had been baptized in blood . Why not take one or two out, and trade them for a carriage?"
Xue Wei pondered for a bit, but then he shook his head . "The caravan is already moving to the capital, and we have already gotten a lift the whole way . They said that there are teleportation formations in the cities, so do we really need a carriage?"
It was not that Xue Wei was stingy, he just didn’t see a purpose in buying a carriage, and when he argued so reasonably, Lan nodded his head, but moments after he shook it .
"It is true that we don’t need it right away, however, who knows where we have to go in the future . If we cannot get a carriage at that time, we will have to spend too much time walking . "
Xue Wei began thinking about it . He had not thought that far ahead, and he slowly nodded his head . It made sense . "Then let us talk with him," he decided after thinking it through .
It was no problem to store it, as he had both his own storage treasures, but also the ghost storage treasures . As such, it was just replacing a few swords for a carriage .
The two, Xue Wei and Lan on his shoulder, went to meet the middle-aged ghost . When he saw them, he raised an eyebrow in surprise . They had the aura and appearance of ghosts now, and he had to admit that the disguise was truly well made .
"We are leaving tomorrow morning," he said . "You can do whatever you want to do until then . "
Xue Wei nodded his head and looked at the goods that the merchant had placed on the table . He did not understand any of them, they all seemed extremely foreign, and he was curious about their purpose .
"I was wondering if you are interested in selling a carriage," Xue Wei asked, as he looked at the many exciting gadgets .
"A carriage?" the middle-aged man frowned . "I can sell you a carriage, but the price is quite high . "
Xue Wei nodded his head in acknowledgment . That made perfect sense . Then he waved his hand, and three black swords appeared in his hands .
