My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1300: Chapter 1299: Sell to You?

At this moment, Lei Laowu was dumbfounded, realizing that he had fallen into Chen Tianlong’s trap. Mr. Feng quickly shouted, "One billion once, one billion twice, one billion...sold."

The deal was struck, and Lei Laowu bought the Divine Cauldron for one billion. At this point, Lao Feng was speechless, not bothering with this fool.

Lei Laowu realized his mistake; a few billion might not be much, but one billion was a third of their family’s wealth, and they needed liquid assets, which their family might not have.

"Uncle Lao, I’m...I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. If you don’t listen to the wise, you’ll suffer the consequences," Lei Laowu said, looking forlorn.

By now, most people on the scene were starting to leave, leaving only the few from earlier: Huang Zhong, Tan Xianglan, and Chen Tianlong, while Lei Laowu and Lao Feng were naturally on the other side.

"You brat, it’s all your fault. I’m going to fight you."

Lei Laowu pointed at Chen Tianlong, wanting to throw a punch, but just as he raised his fist, Lao Feng grabbed him and dragged him outside.

Chen Tianlong chuckled helplessly; Lei Laowu was really adorable, his meridians were all broken, yet he still thought he could beat him up—truly naive.

"Let’s go!"

Chen Tianlong said to the two behind him. He still had something important to do later.

The three of them quickly walked out, Chen Tianlong soon catching up to Lei Laowu and Lao Feng. As they reached the door, Chen Tianlong deliberately bumped into Lei Laowu, making him grit his teeth in anger.

But Lao Feng held him back, as he had promised Master Lei he would prevent any incidents.

Now Lei Laowu, acting recklessly, had provoked Chen Tianlong. If he truly wanted to strike him down, you wouldn’t be able to utter a single word.

After being pulled, Chen Tianlong walked out the door, followed closely by Huang Zhong and Tan Xianglan. Actually, Chen Tianlong had a purpose in bumping into Lei Laowu—the Dong Race’s West Suburb mountain map had now landed in Chen Tianlong’s hands.

Tan Xianglan quickly caught up with Chen Tianlong, her mood a bit gloomy. Although she was touring Guiyang looking for a suitable alchemy furnace, once she encountered this fourth-grade Divine Cauldron, she was determined to obtain it.

But heaven doesn’t always grant wishes—a surprise appearance by Lei Laowu had her vexed, ultimately resulting in giving up.

"Xianglan, why so glum?" Chen Tianlong asked deliberately.

"Feign ignorance."

Tan Xianglan rolled her eyes at Chen Tianlong and replied.

"Haha, no need to be upset. How about this—if I help you get the alchemy furnace, how will you repay me?" Chen Tianlong grinned mischievously, glancing at Tan Xianglan’s chest.

But Tan Xianglan knew Chen Tianlong was just teasing her; if he truly wanted her, he wouldn’t have kept pushing off marrying her.

Thinking for a moment, Tan Xianglan said, "Aren’t I already your wife? What else could I give you as repayment?"

"Oh? Wife, huh? That’s not very realistic. If you return to the Tan Family, how can I dare to marry you? Say something realistic," Chen Tianlong said with a wry smile.

"Uh, nothing else. Besides myself, I have nothing to give you."

"Then sell yourself to me."

Chen Tianlong stated directly, his face serious.

"Sell myself to you? What do you mean?"

Tan Xianglan was stunned and then got angry, thinking Chen Tianlong saw her as a commodity to bring home and mistreat—as a wife, he didn’t want her; as something else, he did. This dirty-minded man.

"Haha, I’m saying sell your other identity to me, not your body."

Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly, "I know you’re a formidable Alchemy Master, so could you help me with alchemy in the future and become my personal Alchemy Master?"

Honestly, Chen Tianlong had ulterior motives. His World Medicine company aims to become stronger, relying chiefly on him and alchemical pills.

Those lower-level cultivators, without pills, would struggle to advance even by a single level, given the sparse Spiritual Qi.

Therefore, they’ll always remain at their original strength, offering no significant advantage.

After all, Celestial Pill Sect disciples were spread worldwide and were high-level. To expand his forces, he needed abundant Qi Gathering Pills, Super Qi Gathering Pills, and so on.

Given Tan Xianglan’s strong desire for this fourth-grade pill, Chen Tianlong guessed she was certainly not ordinary, at least capable of refining Qi Gathering Pills.

"This... being your personal Alchemy Master..."

Tan Xianglan blushed hearing this, realizing her earlier misinterpretation, but becoming his personal Alchemy Master wasn’t a trivial matter. Agreeing now wasn’t an issue, but she feared her father might use this identity to marry her off to another family as a bargaining chip.

If she agreed with Chen Tianlong now, the future might become tangled—on one hand, Chen Tianlong’s personal Alchemy Master; on the other hand, dealing with her father’s matrimonial alliances.

"What’s wrong? Can’t handle this business deal?"

Chen Tianlong furrowed his brows. A personal Alchemy Master could refine pills for him and also for the Tan Family, which he didn’t oppose.

It’s just when he needed certain pills, he’d contact her, prepare materials and money, and leave the refining to Tan Xianglan.

A billion-dollar Divine Cauldron should be worth it, Chen Tianlong thought.

"It’s not that."

Tan Xianglan took a deep breath, leaning in to whisper in Chen Tianlong’s ear.

But just this small action instantly mesmerized Tan Xianglan—Chen Tianlong had this peculiar scent that drew her in, making her reluctant to leave.

Seeing Tan Xianglan leaning in but not speaking, Chen Tianlong instinctively turned his face, their lips almost touching for a moment, lightly brushing against each other, creating a ripple of emotion.

However, Tan Xianglan reacted first, hurriedly whispering, "I’m concerned that I might lose autonomy in the future; you know the current situation in our Tan Family. I may be forced to marry someone else, and the price of marriage might not be just a union but for the alchemical identity. Otherwise, who would spend so much wealth for a woman?"

"I see..."

Chen Tianlong frowned deeply; if that were true, he couldn’t do anything, as this involved Tan Family’s internal matters.

"But there’s a solution—you marry me."

Tan Xianglan wasn’t joking. Hearing about Chen Tianlong’s charisma and intelligence, not to mention his profound strength, dismantling many experts in Capital City.

In this world where the strong rule, Tan Xianglan had embraced this notion. To her, Chen Tianlong was a hero, even if he was from an opposing faction, she liked him.
