Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 783: A New Journey



"Mr. Chu, the Prince and the two young masters from the Yang and Long families insist on meeting you. What do you think?"

On the sixth underground level of the Longevity Club, Chu Mo was holding a phone. On the other end was Yang Xuan, the club's general manager.

Upon receiving Yang Xuan's call, Chu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly. He glanced at the mature woman in front of him, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes, then immediately instructed:

"From now on, don't let anyone disturb me. If someone looks for me, tell them I'm not here."

With those words, without giving the other party a chance to explain, Chu Mo hung up the phone.

At this moment, the mature woman named Felice paused her steps, which were about to leave. She returned to the bar, her gaze fixed on a peculiar fruit inside the bar as she raised her eyebrow and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, that fruit is an extraordinary Immortal Fruit. This kind of fruit can enhance physical qualities and is a hundred times more effective than Spiritual Power Wine... However, the effective period of this fruit is very short. If not consumed immediately within a few hours, its effect will diminish greatly, making it hard to trade."

With a hint of seriousness in her eyes, Felice finished her words and then turned her gaze to Chu Mo. After a moment of silence, she slowly said:

"How many Spiritual Power Fruits do you have here? I'll take them all."

Behind the bar, Chu Mo gently set down his phone and turned his gaze to the Immortal Fruits behind him.

A few days ago, after acquiring five Spiritual Power Fruits, Chu Mo had entrusted the Immortal Tree to Wu Youyou. Since the bar was opening today, Chu Mo had specifically asked Wu Youyou to accelerate the ripening of the fruits. Although the Immortal Fruits before him looked no different from mature fruits, they hadn't undergone the three-fold baptism of heavenly lightning due to the accelerated ripening, making their effects somewhat inferior.

The reason Chu Mo was eager to ripen the five Immortal Fruits was because today marked the bar's first opening. He had previously seen in a Xizhou City bar that a D-level task involved purchasing Immortal Fruits, leading him to deduce that these fruits weren't easily obtainable. Even system owners would likely cherish them immensely.

Placing the Immortal Fruits in the bar was his strategy to attract system owners with their allure.

As it seemed now, his approach was somewhat effective. At least, Felice seemed genuinely interested in the Immortal Fruits.

A mature Immortal Fruit was worth a thousand points in the system's marketplace, while a fruit in the bar's task menu cost fifteen hundred points.

However, because Chu Mo's fruits were semi-finished products with only half the effectiveness of fully matured ones, he couldn't quite settle on a price.

Nonetheless, Chu Mo hadn't planned on using the Immortal Fruits to repay debts. He directly took the enticingly fragrant fruit from the counter behind him and gently placed it beside Felice, saying calmly:

"If you like it, I can give you this Immortal Fruit!"

Though Chu Mo said this, Felice at the bar did not show any sign of excitement. She simply looked at him playfully and said:

"I never believe there's such a thing as a free lunch in this world. In fact, I believe the most expensive things in this world are often those given away for free.

So, what do I have to give in return?"

The beautiful woman clearly didn't think she could acquire an Immortal Fruit for nothing, knowing that such a top-tier treasure was rare even in black markets.

Due to the frail shelf life of Immortal Fruits, they are tough to preserve and exchange, so obtaining one typically depends on serendipity.

As Felice watched closely, Princess Mina beside Chu Mo sniffed the air.

Princess Mina had just indulged in the wonders of Spiritual Power Wine. Just a minute ago, she believed it was the most exquisite delicacy in the world. However, the enchanting scent from the Immortal Fruit immediately made her mouth water.

"Gulp!"

Princess Mina, eyes fixated on the Immortal Fruit, swallowed hard, aware that such an extraordinary fruit was far from a common item. Even with her royal status, acquiring such a treasure was unlikely.

Seeing the drooling Princess Mina, Chu Mo smirked slightly. He then lowered his head briefly, and when he stood upright again, another identical Immortal Fruit appeared in his hand.

The Immortal Tree still bore five fruits, and since Chu Mo needed them, he had not shared any with Wu Youyou and Tianya, opting instead to bring all five to the bar.

Besides the fruit in front of Felice, Chu Mo held four more Immortal Fruits.

These fruits can double an average person's physical capabilities. Having consumed one before, Chu Mo's physical attributes had more than doubled. But despite their marvelous nature, the fruit only works once, and consuming a second one greatly dims its impact. Eating three leads to irreversible diminishing returns.

Since Chu Mo had already used one, the same goes for Wu Youyou and Tianya, so he saw no need to waste them.

Seeing there would be no other system owners visiting today, and knowing the fruits last only for twenty-four hours, rather than letting them go to waste, he might as well give one to Princess Mina to enhance her constitution.
