Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1198: I Want a Refund



Xia Liu didn't say much; Bai Xiang looked at most twenty-two and probably still a student.

As long as she can lead me to buy Spirit Jade, I'll give her a huge reward.

"Sister Bai, you know where real jade is sold, right?"

Looking at the bustling traffic outside the airport, Xia Liu asked.

"I don't know about that. I'll take you to the jade trading market and then go home when the time comes. Whether you can buy real jade depends on your luck."

"Pfft! So irresponsible?"

Xia Liu couldn't understand. Did Yanzi find this guide for me, but does she have any skills?

"You're not my someone. Why should I be responsible for you? From now on, I will only lead you for eight hours."

Bai Xiang's words were devoid of emotion.

No matter how good Xia Liu looks, he can't match the god in her heart.

As long as I earn enough money, I can visit the city of my god.

"How much for eight hours?"

Xia Liu wondered if he paid too little since this girl seemed so indifferent to him.

"Ten thousand bucks."

"Ten thousand bucks for eight hours, and this is your attitude? I want a refund!"

Xia Liu pretended to be stern.

"Refund?"

Suddenly, Bai Xiang stopped, her eyes staring at Xia Liu: "You're the goods!"

"If you want to leave, you can go. Anyway, the money is already in my pocket."

After roaring, Bai Xiang said leisurely.

"I see, no wonder you dare to treat customers like this. Alright, I admit defeat."

Xia Liu shook his head helplessly, thinking he should learn a lesson and not easily pay before the task is done.

"So you're not leaving on your own?"

Bai Xiang asked puzzledly.

...

Xia Liu looked at Bai Xiang in astonishment. Did this girl think I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her?

And she dared to say such things.

"What? Looking at you, do you want to hit me?"

With a question, Bai Xiang emitted an aura not weaker than a Mysterious Rank Primary-Level Martial Artist.

"I wouldn't dare. You're surely trained in martial arts, and today I need your protection."

Xia Liu laughed merrily since he had paid and could not suffer a loss.

This girl is a Mysterious Rank Mid-Level Martial Artist, so having a bit of temper is expected.

Xia Liu felt a bit nostalgic about Bai Xiang's cultivation.

It had been a long time since he encountered a martial artist.

Lately, he had been dealing with cultivators.

"Good that you know. Let's go quickly."

After Bai Xiang glared at Xia Liu, she led him into a cab.

"By the way, is your real name Xia Liu?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

Xia Liu felt inexplicably baffled. He had already acquiesced, so what else did this girl want?

"Xia Liu is the name of my god. I don't want you using this name, so you better change it."

"Pfft!"

Xia Liu almost spat blood.

Bai Xiang was indeed domineering, and a Mysterious Rank Mid-Level Martial Artist sure had personality and temper.

"Your god is named Xia Liu? Does he act in movies or sing?"

Xia Liu feigned ignorance.

"Scram! My god is the strongest man in Huaxia; he is the Chief of Heavenly Mansion!"

Bai Xiang suddenly burst out, nearly frightening the driver.

After realizing something was wrong, Bai Xiang said, "Forget it, you ordinary folks wouldn't understand my world."

"Girl, you're a bit over the top..."

The driver wanted to say but thought better and decided to remain silent; otherwise, it would cost him more money.

"Fine, Fairy Bai, then call me Liu Xia."

"Alright, since you're so obedient, I decided to give you an extra hour."

"Haha! Thank you, Fairy Bai."

Xia Liu laughed gratefully.

"Sigh, although you're also called Xia Liu, why are you so different from my god..."

Looking at the ecstatic Xia Liu in the rearview mirror, Bai Xiang revealed a perplexed expression.

Before Bai Xiang's fantasy ended, the taxi stopped.

On the right stood an enormous ancient-style gate.

Jade!

A traditional character for jade hung in the center of the gate.

On the ride, Xia Liu had already scanned inside with his divine sense.

He found the trading venue bigger than imagined.

If it were ordinary people, it would probably take one or two hours to walk from start to finish.

But within the range of divine sense, Xia Liu didn't find any real jade.

The pendants and bracelets displayed on the stalls were all fake.

Though beautifully crafted, they couldn't hide their poor auras and feel.

"Here we are. Tell me your requirements again, and I'll take you to a suitable place."

"I want to see some raw materials."

"I didn't mishear, right? Aren't you here to buy jade? What's the point of looking at raw materials?"

Bai Xiang looked disdainfully at Xia Liu's entire request.

Because the raw material market was at the end of this market, it took a long walk to get there.

"Yeah, I'm here to buy raw materials and open them myself."

"You're loaded!"

Bai Xiang was at a loss for words.

Buying raw materials sometimes might result in total loss.

Even if some jade stones are found, if the quality isn't good, it could result in huge losses.

Only the rich dare to play like this.

Bai Xiang could only admire such wealthy people.

Bai Xiang also wanted to know how much Xia Liu would lose this time, so she led him through several miles.

The end of the jade trading market.

The stalls here sold nothing but stones: yellow, green, black...

Various colors were available.

But most raw materials were used to trick novices.

Those stones capable of yielding jade could be identified by experienced people.

Veterans could tell if there were goods inside, but the quality of those goods, even the most skilled experts couldn't see.

Unless one had a Clairvoyant Eye.

Xia Liu was different; with divine sense, he could see if raw materials contained jade and assess its quality.

In the raw materials trading area, the flourishing level far surpassed the finished goods area.

Here, there were not only merchants looking to hunt for treasures but also ordinary people curious to expand their horizons.

At a certain stall, many people were watching a transaction.

A girl, around twenty, was negotiating with the stall owner.

"Boss, for this raw material, I can only offer sixty thousand, not a penny more."

The girl's voice rang with seriousness; if the boss disagreed, she'd certainly walk away.

"Dreaming if you think you can buy this stone for sixty thousand."

"Haha, this material is covered entirely in pale green, with an eighty percent chance of yielding jade, and the quality might even be Middle Grade. Sixty thousand is too little; I offer eighty thousand!"

"Hehe, I'm sure there's real jade inside this material; I offer a hundred thousand!"

"I offer a hundred twenty thousand!"

The girl's offer was not only mocked by onlookers but also raised competitively by those nearby.

After a round of bidding, the price reached three hundred thousand!

Three hundred thousand; if the material doesn't yield real jade, it would be a total loss beyond recognition...

Just as the girl gritted her teeth to offer a higher price, a voice gently echoed: "There's no jade inside this material, not even a bit of green Crystal Stone..."
