60: Yuantai Ling's sincerity
But he didn't wolf down his food; eating normally was fine, there was no need to deliberately change that.
"You are the first person with such strength who dares to come here. That cup just now was a reward for your courage.
You said earlier that you came on behalf of the Human Race to make friends and brought some sincerity. Hurry up and take it out!"
After finishing the jade nectar in her cup, Yuantai Ling looked at Xiao Xing with a faint smile.
She naturally knew what had happened at the entrance. She didn't mention the trade, but instead picked up on the words Xiao Xing had said when he first arrived.
She wanted to see how this guy would handle it. If Xiao Xing fell out with her over such a small matter, she wouldn't bother with him anymore.
Xiao Xing also understood her meaning; she wanted to make things difficult for him. If he brought things to make friends, it meant giving the resources to them for free, and naturally, there would be no trade.
However, this wasn't without a countermeasure.
Xiao Xing took out some cloth and accessories from his backpack, placed them on the table, and then looked at Yuantai Ling with a smile:
"It's these."
Xiao Xing pointed to the items on the table, wearing a look of complete sincerity.
He indeed said he brought friendly greetings on behalf of the Human Race, but he didn't say how much. A few bolts of cloth were still items, after all.
He had just wanted to bluff earlier. There was no such thing as greetings on behalf of the Human Race; he only represented himself.
But since the other party wanted to make things difficult for him, he could only improvise for now.
"Is your Human Race really this stingy?"
Seeing that Xiao Xing had come up with such a countermeasure, Yuantai Ling appeared somewhat speechless.
Although she just wanted to test Xiao Xing, seeing this 'sincerity of the Human Race,' it was simply too shabby, wasn't it?
"It can't be helped. We have many backwater areas on the surface, so we're quite poor, unlike your sea region which is rich in resources."
Xiao Xing nodded, confirming that this was indeed the sincerity of the Human Race.
He wouldn't take out all the resources even if it killed him; otherwise, how the hell would he trade for gold coins?
If he went back to buy more resources, he wouldn't have any gold coins left. He had to get some gold coins from Yuantai Ling first; he could just send some resources over for free when he had time later.
"I heard that your Zihua Divine Kingdom is very powerful, yet you're here crying poverty to me?"
Yuantai Ling glanced at Xiao Xing, not intending to let him off just yet.
She was a God-level Expert; did he really think she was easy to talk to?
"How did you see that I'm from the Zihua Divine Kingdom?"
Xiao Xing rubbed his nose. He hadn't expected the other party to be so powerful that she could directly see he was from the Human Race's Zihua Divine Kingdom.
In his past life, he had never interacted with a God-level figure at such close range and only knew a bit about their abilities.
Earlier, he had only seen Yuantai Ling's attributes, with no skills displayed. He estimated this was also a System setting.
God-level Experts had extremely high intelligence and abilities. They weren't like those wild monsters with a fixed set of skills.
Such experts were similar to Emperor Realm experts in a cultivation world; they did things according to their own preferences and weren't subject to any System restrictions.
For example, a player's Repulsion Aura can push away those who get close and then enter a cooldown state; to use it again, one must wait for the cooldown to end.
But if a God-level Expert used a Repulsion Aura, it would be just like the real world—they could use it whenever they wanted as long as they had the power within them. That was why their abilities weren't displayed.
"Stop talking nonsense and take out the resources you brought!"
Yuantai Ling curled her lip, too lazy to bicker with Xiao Xing.
She knew this guy came for gold coins, and if she didn't give him gold, he probably wouldn't take them out.
As a God-level Expert, even if she went to a Human Race city to buy resources, she would at most be monitored; they couldn't keep her there.
It was just that she couldn't be bothered to make a trip for these small resources, which was why players could exchange for gold coins here.
After Xiao Xing summoned the Divine Deer, he ignored Yuantai Ling's shock and began taking things out.
Before long, various resources were piled up in the hall, over ten thousand items in total, all bought previously.
After he finished, Yuantai Ling still hadn't recovered. She kept observing the Divine Deer, her face full of shock.
It was no wonder she reacted this way. The Divine Deer was not only a God-level special creature but also possessed abilities that exceeded its own grade. It was extremely rare. If not for the Million Times Amplification, someone might not have obtained one even by the very Late Stage of the game.
"Your mount is very good. My cup of jade nectar wasn't given to you in vain."
Yuantai Ling turned around and smiled at Xiao Xing.
Previously, she only felt that this little guy had courage to come here at level 30, but now she felt she had underestimated Xiao Xing.
Someone who could possess such a mount was definitely no ordinary person. Thus, she planned to invest in Xiao Xing, or rather, collaborate.
"Thank you for your jade nectar. When I have time, I'll bring resources to give to you."
Xiao Xing's impression of her was quite good. She gave him such jade nectar without a second thought, which was equivalent to 5 levels' worth of attributes.
The gold coins he could earn in the future would be an astronomical figure. Giving them some resources was nothing; after all, he was relying on this place to make his fortune.
"I think your Divine Deer is quite extraordinary. Can I take a look?"
Yuantai Ling ignored the resources Xiao Xing mentioned and turned to look at the Divine Deer expectantly.
She hadn't cared about these low-level resources from the beginning. She faintly sensed that the Divine Deer possessed very strong spatial power, so she wanted to see the specifics.
Xiao Xing didn't waste words and opened the Divine Deer's attribute panel.
When Yuantai Ling glanced at it, her expression became shocked once more. She didn't care much about the Spatial Movement, but the Space-Time Leap made her feel a slight chill down her spine.
With such an ability, where in this world could one not go? Even that legendary Sky City could be entered and exited freely.
"I see."
After Yuantai Ling regained her composure, she took a deep breath.
She wanted to borrow Xiao Xing's mount to do some things, but she hadn't thought it through for now, so she didn't bring it up.
A moment later, a soldier rushed in and waited for the Clan Chief's instructions.
Yuantai Ling had just summoned him using her Divine Sense.
"Take this ring and put all the gold nuggets in the junk pile into it, then bring it here."
Yuantai Ling tossed the ring to the soldier and waved her hand.
Upon hearing the instructions, the soldier quickly left to pack the gold bars.
"You're called Jian Chen, right? I'll give these things to you. I hope to borrow your mount once when needed, how about it?"
Yuantai Ling handed a ring to Xiao Xing. Inside was a treasure. She hoped to exchange it for one-time usage of the mount; to put it bluntly, she wanted to make a deal with Xiao Xing.
Seeing the ring in her hand, Xiao Xing took it and glanced inside, his eyes immediately lighting up.
It was an Elementary spatial ring, 10 cubic meters in size, but the ring wasn't the most important part. The main thing was the item inside—a pair of Legendary Wings.
In the Continent of Gods and Demons, players didn't just have equipment slots; they also had a specific equipment slot for wearing wings and capes.
