Chapter 756

"What? Didn't pay attention? That counts as an answer? It's also worth 65 drops of liquefied origin essence." Zi Chen's eyes widened.

"Does that count as a question? One drop of low-grade liquefied origin essence," replied the one-eyed man.

"Boss, please think about it again. This person is very important to me," said Zi Chen.

"This question is worth 65 drops of low-grade liquefied origin essence," said the one-eyed man.

Zi Chen was so angry that his nose was about to go crooked. He had already guessed what the other party's answer would be after he paid. It would definitely be something along the lines of, "Oh, I didn't remember."

Although he had a lot of resources on him, Zi Chen wouldn't waste them like this.

"That's not a question," said Zi Chen snappily.

Disdainful mockery came from the neighboring seats. They could already tell that Zi Chen's question was worthless.

Zi Chen ignored them. After thinking about how to ask, he asked again, "Is it her?"

This time, Zi Chen sent out a spiritual thought with Wang Xian 'er's appearance in it.

"This question is worth 655 drops of low-grade liquefied origin essence."

The one-eyed man thought for a moment and said. He seemed to have guessed that after this answer, there would be no more liquefied origin essence to earn. This time, he asked for ten times the previous price.

"Okay, I'll pay. A total of 675 drops of liquefied origin essence."

"Yes," said the one-eyed man directly.

"It really is Xian 'er."

Zi Chen was excited. This news was enough to prove that Xian 'er had arrived here and had already stepped onto the ancient road.

"Only one question is worth 655 drops of liquefied origin essence." The devil ape was speechless.

"Does that count as a question? One drop of liquefied origin essence." The one-eyed man's eyes lit up and he looked at the devil ape again.

"Pretend I didn't say anything." The devil ape was speechless at the one-eyed man's greed.

"I have another piece of information about her here. It's worth 655 drops of liquefied origin essence. You should be interested." Seeing that Zi Chen wasn't taking the initiative to ask, the one-eyed man began to tempt him again.

"Okay, I'll pay."

"Before she stepped onto the ancient road, she provoked some people and attracted quite a bit of trouble for her," said the one-eyed man after some thought.

"Who?"

Zi Chen asked. He didn't ask about the trouble, but who the person was. Obviously, he had thought about it carefully and was afraid that the other party would give an irrelevant answer.

"Since you're a big client, I'll give you this information for free. Among the people she offended, there are Sky Martial Artists."

When Zi Chen heard this news, his expression instantly became gloomy. The battle prowess of a Heaven level martial artist was extremely strong. Once Xian`er encountered one, she would naturally be in danger.

"Just now, you said that girl was very beautiful. Did a Heaven level warrior take a fancy to her and wanted to do something with her, but she refused." A mocking voice came from the side. It was the same youth from before.

"This piece of information is worth a thousand drops of low-grade liquefied elemental essence." The one-eyed man looked at the youth.

"Forget it. Pretend I didn't say anything." The young man waved his hand.

At this point, it seemed like there was no need to ask any more questions. The next step was to ask about the ancient trial road.

"What's the value of information about the ancient road?"

Zi Chen hesitated for a moment before asking again. Currently, he did not know where to start asking about the Ancient Road.

"One question ranges from ten to a hundred drops of liquefied elemental essence. If you can give me five hundred drops, I can tell you everything."

As soon as the topic of the ancient road was brought up, the one-eyed man lost all interest. He used a black rag to wipe the glossy counter.

"Okay, I'll give it to you." Zi Chen readily agreed.

Zi Chen's straightforwardness caused the one-eyed man to view him in a new light. "I didn't expect you to be so generous. If I had known earlier, I would have asked you for a thousand drops of liquefied elemental essence."

Zi Chen did not answer. He only wanted to hear about the ancient road.

"You have to be careful when you enter the ancient road. It's filled with all kinds of dangers, and you can lose your life at any time. Even someone like you, who thinks you're a cut above others, will die an ugly death." The one-eyed man continued wiping the counter.

"On that road, there are many things to be wary of. Whether you can successfully survive the ancient road does not depend on how strong you are, but how lucky you are. Whether you can survive or not depends on your strength. When I entered the ancient road back then, I was the most ordinary one, but in the end, I came out alive. As for those who think their noses are in the sky, they seem to have long since become nourishment for the ancient road."

Here, he paused. Zi Chen asked why, but the man told him that the five hundred drops of liquefied elemental essence had been used up.

"You haven't finished yet. At the very least, you should tell me that some ancient roads are lacking in resources. There isn't even any spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It's very difficult to recover one's energy. You should have brought enough resources," Zi Chen said loudly.

The one-eyed man glanced at Zi Chen again. "Don't you already know? Why do you need me to repeat myself?"

Zi Chen slowly sat down and organized his thoughts. Today, he had been rendered speechless by this one-eyed man. Moreover, he had spent so much liquefied elemental essence, but he hadn't managed to get anything substantial out of him. Moreover, he could already tell that the other party would definitely not reveal any details about the ancient road. If he continued to ask, he would only be wasting resources for no reason.

"Alright, since you're a rich customer, I'll give you another piece of information for free. The ancient road is divided into different grades and ranks. If someone like you, who thinks you're first class, enters a ninth grade ancient road, your chances of successfully passing through will be much higher than someone in the ninth grade."

This information clearly had some value. The surrounding people didn't have any strange expressions. Of those who dared to come here to buy information, which one of them didn't think they were first class?

If you want to have a better life on the ancient road and have a better chance of passing through, then don't provoke such an existence. If you want to have a better life, then you can try to bribe them. As for what kind of bribe, that will depend on your own ability. The bribe can be a beauty, a handsome man, a pet, a drop of liquefied elemental essence, or even someone to sleep with. As long as they're happy, it's fine. "After saying this, the one-eyed man chuckled.

Five hundred drops of liquefied elemental essence. This information seemed to be valuable. Looking at the expressions of the surrounding people, it seemed that they all knew about it.

Zi Chen didn't plan on asking about the ancient road, but Xian 'er's actions caused another idea to sprout in his mind. He immediately asked, "Can I also leave some liquefied elemental essence here to pay for other people's drinks?"

As soon as he heard business, the one-eyed man's eyes lit up again. "Of course."

"I want to leave some for these two people. If they come but don't come in, I'll have to trouble you to call them. The price can be negotiated." Zi Chen once again sent out a message with the appearance of Lin Xue and Su Mengyao.

"Haha, young man, your luck with women isn't shallow." The one-eyed man let out a strange laugh. "You're quite scheming as well."

Zi Chen smiled but didn't say anything. In truth, he wanted to ask if the other party had seen the two of them before. However, he was afraid that the other party would continue to demand an exorbitant price, so he could only come up with this idea. If the two of them had already come and left, then the other party would naturally know that this transaction would never be completed, and so would refuse.

Of course, all of this was just Zi Chen's guess. Perhaps the boss was a black-hearted fellow. But hearing him say that he was quite scheming, Zi Chen smiled. He knew that although the boss was greedy, he wasn't black-hearted.

As for the two of them leaving, the boss didn't notice such a thing, so it naturally wouldn't happen. After all, the boss knew what had happened to Zi Chen outside the plaza. He naturally wouldn't mistake these two peerless beauties.

"Alright, I'll complete this transaction. If they don't come in, I'll call them in for a drink." The one-eyed man said.

"You can tell them my identity. As for the price, I'll keep it."

Zi Chen could imagine that if Lin Xue and Su Mengyao really did come and drink for free, they would definitely be curious about the person who paid in advance. If the boss was still so greedy, it wouldn't be good.

Moreover, the two of them had already left when they took to the air. Zi Chen was worried that they didn't have many resources on them.

"Alright, I'll pass on your message." After saying this, the one-eyed man began to ponder, as if he was calculating how much he should ask for from Zi Chen.

Sure enough, after a while, the one-eyed man said, "How about this, I'll erase all the zeroes for you. You just need to give me a thousand drops of low-grade yuan liquid."

Zi Chen didn't haggle. Instead, he gave the other party enough yuan liquid. The one-eyed man was very satisfied with the yuan liquid he received.

Having received useful information, Zi Chen pretended to leave. However, the big cups of wine in front of the three of them remained untouched.

"Leaving without drinking? That's very wasteful," the man sitting alone at the first table suddenly said.

Zi Chen was startled and stopped.

"It's indeed very wasteful. This thing can only be found in the ancient road. The outside world can't drink it even if they want to. Apart from the fact that the wine itself is extraordinary, the things used to make it are even more extraordinary. Do you see that heart? That's a living creature's heart."

The second man sitting alone also said.

The two of them hadn't said anything, nor had they looked at Zi Chen. However, at this moment, because Zi Chen and the other two didn't drink, they both spoke up.

Among Zi Chen's group, the monk was a monk. Although he had already broken all kinds of precepts, the only thing he didn't touch was meat and wine. Zi Chen himself didn't care about wine. Although it had helped him a lot in the past, the feeling of dizziness after drinking it made Zi Chen extremely unhappy.

In comparison, the devil ape liked wine and meat. Of course, the quality of meat was greater.

Without needing Zi Chen's instructions, the devil ape walked back to its seat, picked up a big cup of wine, and downed it in an instant. Moreover, it downed three cups in a row.

Such an action that was comparable to a cow drinking attracted the attention of everyone. This time, everyone was included.

The wine seemed to be a little spicy. After the devil ape drank it, it stuck out its tongue and bared its teeth. Moreover, when it breathed out, there was actually a wave of heat within it.

After drinking, the devil ape took a step forward. Its body actually swayed a little. The devil ape shook its head and said, "The wine is quite strong."

Then, the devil ape stepped forward and followed Zi Chen and the monk away, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded people. Even the one-eyed man looked a little stunned.
