Chapter 1378: 1378

“If we’re talking business, exchanging items for my supplies is not sustainable for my side. You already know I can’t sell the exchanged items for 100% of their value, and selling them at 60-70% of their value is already being optimistic, so me accepting the exchanged items at 50% of the value is a reasonable offer. Lord Kun, I’m not trying to cheat you. If any other merchant was in my position, you would have been given an even lower price when it comes to your proposal.” Ling Lan was actually quite knowledgeable of the business world. Her eloquent words stunted Lord Kun for a moment.

“What you say makes sense, but the other lords will not consider 50%. If the Soul Society wants to enter into the Lawless Lands quickly, you should concede a little.” Thinking about the potential profit they could make, Lord Kun got a little excited, but on the surface, he still had a stone-cold expression. “You should think about it carefully.”

Ling Lan massaged her temples, contemplating the offer of Lord Kun. After a few seconds, she finally relented and said, “Then tell me, Lord Kun. At what price can you accept?”

Lord Kun calmly said, “80% of the original selling price.”

Hearing the ridiculous offer, Ling Lan shook her head regretfully. “I will lose too much with that price. If this is a short term deal, it will perhaps be fine, but considering that it is a long term deal, the Soul Emperor would definitely not agree to that price.”

“You really won’t consider it?” Lord Kun’s eyes sharpened slightly. The temperature of the entire main hall suddenly dropped.

Ling Lan stared directly at Lord Kun fearlessly. “It’s not that I won’t agree to it. That price is simply not acceptable to the Soul Emperor.”

Hearing Ling Lan denying any fault in this failed argument, Lord Kun’s expression got even worse.

“Lord Kun, you should really think where you stand in this deal. I’m being nice when I say you should be the conceding party here, not me. Although we do wish to have a place to call our own in the Lawless Lands, we are not desperate for it. Just think about it. Letting us suffer losses while you reap profit, doesn’t sound like a good long term business relationship. Only when both sides profit, we’re happy. Don’t you think so?” Ling Lan said slowly.

Lord Kun visibly contemplated for a few seconds before slowly speaking up, “Tell me the lowest you can go? Don’t go around in circles with me. I only want to hear it straight up.”

Ling Lan bit her lip in frustration. “70%. That’s our limit.”

When Lord Kun heard that, a small smirk appeared on his face. “Alright, we’ll settle with 70%.”

Looking at the gloating Lord Kun, Ling Lan suddenly realized she had been fooled. She smiled bitterly. “I’m still too naive.”

“It’s just as you said, it’s better when both of us win.” Lord Kun smiled happily.

“Yeah, it’s very good, but I will be punished by the emperor.” Ling Lan helplessly sighed.

“If the emperor wants to discipline you, tell him to come find us.” Lord Kun gave Ling Lan some empty words to comfort her. Suddenly, he shifted his gaze to the green plant growing in the corner of the frozen hall. He uncontrollably let out a confused sound. “Hmm?”

“I’ve never seen this species of plant before,” Lord Kun instantly teleported next to the plant. He reached towards the plant as he said in a joyful tone.

Before his fingers could clamp down to pull a lead off, the green plant suddenly retracted back into the soil before emerging a meter away from him in the soil.

“It could sense my intentions.” Lord Kun’s lips curled upwards as he looked curiously towards the green plant. He again reached out with his hand in an attempt to stop the plant from escaping. However, before he knew it, a pale jade-like hand had already lightly held his wrist.

“Lord Kun, are you that bored to play with my pet? Don’t you think that’s a bit rude?” Ling Lan looked at him with raised eyebrows.

“Pet?” Lord Kun looked at the green plant that had now vanished, with a shocked expression. The presence he felt earlier was clearly of the plant element. Could it be a plant that had a certain degree of intellect?

Ling Lan wasn’t nice enough to explain to Lord Kun, so she only looked towards Lord Kun indifferently, hoping that he would take his hand back soon. She didn’t want him to annoy Little White’s clone.

“What if I must?” Lord Kun was a person who wouldn’t stop until he got what he wanted, so he obviously wouldn’t stop even if Ling Lan told him to stop.

Hearing Lord Kun’s dominating words, Ling Lan narrowed her eyes. A dangerous presence leaked through her voice as she said coldly, “Perhaps, you want to fight?”

The two of them stared at each other coldly. The originally harmonious atmosphere was instantly replaced by a bone-chilling atmosphere as it slowly diffused through the whole hall.

Bang!

The two of them both expanded their concept energies and sent each other flying backwards.

Ling Lan waved the red cloak behind her and landed firmly on the ground. Her right hand had three ice spears in it.

Lord Kun on the other hand softly landed on the ground. As he landed, the ground below him cracked open to reveal countless of green vines wrapped around each other. The interlocked vines seemed to have came alive as the vines slowly expanded and contracted like a beating heart. The small buds on the surface of the vines slowly blossomed into bright red flowers the size of bowls.

“Plant concept!What a rare sight.” Ling Lan got cautious. The concept Instructor Number Five had was similar to what was shown before her. In her spars against Instructor Number Five, Ling Lan never got ahead of him before. Most of the spars ended with her getting beaten to a pulp by Instructor Number Five. Such terrible memories about the plant based concept naturally made Ling Lan adhor any person who had the plant concept.

“You’re not too shabby either. You are quite perceptive yourself.” Lord Kun believed that his sneak attack was well hidden in the first exchange between them. Other than Lord Qian, any of the lords would have been injured by that. They definitely wouldn’t have been like Lan Xiao who sensed it the moment Lord Kun had made his move.

Ling Lan didn’t respond to his compliment. She wasn’t going to tell him that the reason she was able to sense it quickly was completely because she had a lot of experience dying to sneak attacks infused with the plant concept. After ‘dying’ so many times, her body had naturally completely memorized the presence of those sneak attacks. Once any sneak attack infused with the plant concept came near her, her body would instinctively escape from it.

“I have heard a lot about you from Lord Zhen, but since we’ve started already, let me see just how strong you are.” Right as Lord Kun finished speaking, the flowers on the vines suddenly increased in size and then began to outwardly grow.

Seeing this, Ling Lan immediately leaped off the floor. The place she was standing at originally had already become a wall of ice.

Phew! The red flowers suddenly spat out bright red liquid at the ice wall Ling Lan had just formed. Then, a sharp sizzling sound echoed in the area, and the ice wall instantly liquefied into a puddle of red liquid.

“It’s a type of poison concept. The strong poison has the ability to disintegrate domain concepts…” Ling Lan’s expression tensed up. This ability was quite similar to the disintegration ability of her Profound Insight concept. However, it was still much different in terms of how they would disintegrate concepts.

Her Profound Insight’s concept of disintegration would cause her opponent’s domain concept to disintegrate by its own accord and split up in a molecular level.

Lord Kun’s strong poison concept on the other hand was disintegrating the concept by rearranging his opponent’s domain concept’s structure, causing his opponent’s domain concept to be filled with flaws or cracks. Then, the flawed domain concept wouldn’t be able to hold together and completely collapse.

Despite the two being fundamentally different, they still produce the same results
