The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife - C.1842: Contempt

Moreover, if not for the crystals given by Envoy Hongxia from the Moon Embracing Palace when they took Anling Yan, they wouldn’t even have the funds to rent a storefront.

Anling Yang initially planned to rent a courtyard to settle everyone, then work in other clinics to save enough money to eventually lease his clinic and pharmacy.

However, he hadn’t anticipated that finding a shop to rent in Skyrise City would prove so difficult.

Observing their expressions, the staff member could tell they couldn’t afford to buy a shop. He sneered, “Your cultivation is only at the Soul Splitting Stage, and yet you are trying to open a clinic. You need to pass the level 4 assessment to become a ‘Medical Master.’ But let me remind you, in Skyrise City, there are plenty of people at the ‘Medical Master’ level. Are you sure your clinic can survive here?”

Anling Yao trembled with anger, pointing at the staff member and exclaiming, “You… you’re looking down on us by our appearances!”

The staff member snorted dismissively, clearly uninterested in helping them.

At this point, Xi Yue had finished looking through the jade slips and selected two of them. She turned to the staff member and asked, “How many crystals for these two properties?”

Upon seeing the jade slips in her hand, the staff member’s expression changed slightly. “You must be dreaming,” he said. “Those are the best properties available, and you definitely can’t afford them. Besides, we don’t rent those out!”

The houses on Peace Street were divided into areas. The Celestial Zone was closest to the Heavenly Medical Valley with abundant spiritual energy and the highest traffic from students and cultivators, making it the best for business.

Xi Yue smiled slightly and raised an eyebrow. “Who said I wanted to rent?” she said. “I’m asking about the purchase price.”

The staff member looked confused and looked at Xi Yue for a long time before he coldly quoted a price.

Anling Yao and Anling Yang gasped when they heard the price.

The price for these was more than the crystals they had on hand—barely enough to buy a single small room.

Why did Xi Yue ask for these two properties?

After quoting the price, the staff member saw the shocked expressions on Anling Yao and his companion’s faces and muttered, “I told you this is out of your price range. Why even ask?”

Unfazed by the staff member’s sarcasm, Xi Yue flipped her hand, revealing a pile of crystals. “Can these crystals be used here?” she asked.

What Xi Yue took out was Miluo Continent’s crystal, and it was grade 6.

“Huh?” The staff member opened his mouth wide with a surprised look on his face, and then snickered, “Isn’t this the crystal from the lower realm? No one has used it in Siam Continent for a long time. I even forgot that there is such a thing in the world. It’s an inferior crystal.”

“I just quoted you the price for Siam Continent’s crystals. Don’t tell me you’re trying to pass off these worthless crystals as payment!”

Xi Yue had already guessed that the Miluo Continent’s crystals couldn’t be used directly.

In Siam, crystals weren’t classified by grade, but Xi Yue had seen that each one matched the purity of an 8th-grade Miluo crystal.

She simply asked, “Can these crystals be exchanged for Siam crystals?”

The staff member scoffed, “Sure, they can be exchanged, but crystals of this quality are exchanged at a rate of one to a hundred. Even if you had ten million of these crystals, it wouldn’t be enough to buy a courtyard.” freeweɓnøvel.com

Upon hearing this, Xi Yue wasn’t disheartened. Instead, she smiled slightly and said, “A hundred to one? That won’t be a problem.”

To the staff member’s astonishment, she flipped her hand and spilled the contents of her storage ring onto the ground, quickly forming a pile of crystals.
