Chapter 412 - 412 Power of Laws
412 Power of Laws
The first painting had some vitality, while the other one seemed to contain some the Power of Laws.
It could be seen that the artists of these two paintings were not ordinary people.
Just by looking at the strength of the brush, these two people’s drawing skills were not as good as Shangguan Yun’er’s.
Shangguan Yun’er was only a mortal, so she could not see the level of spiritual energy.
Shangguan Yun’er only felt that these two paintings were pretty good. As for what was good about them, Shangguan Yun’er could not say.
From the details, it seemed that Shangguan Yun’er wasn’t too bad.
It had to be said that Shangguan Yun’er’s confidence increased a little after seeing the painting.
“We’ll take these two paintings,” said Dong Xi.
The waiter eyes lit up when he heard this.
He did not even ask for the price and directly said that he wanted it. This was simply a sucker!
“Alright, wrap it up for the two distinguished guests,” said the waiter.
“How many spirit stones in total?” Dong Xi asked.
“It’s not much, just five top-grade spirit stones,” said the waiter with a smile.
To be honest, this price was indeed nothing to Shangguan Yun’er and Dong Xi.
But now, Dong Xi already had the habit of bargaining. Dong Xi subconsciously frowned and said, “Five top-grade spirit stones? It’s too expensive. Three spirit stones.”
The steward was stunned for a moment and then said, “Immortal Master, we can’t sell it at the price you mentioned!”
Hearing Dong Xi haggling, Shangguan Yun’er looked at Dong Xi in surprise.
Shangguan Yun’er was in her forties. This was the first time she had seen someone haggle.
“What can’t I sell?” Dong Xi said indifferently. “Your price can fool outsiders. I’ve traveled far and wide. What haven’t I seen?”
Hearing Dong Xi’s words, the steward’s heart skipped a beat. He said, “Immortal Master, please take a look and add a little more. If I really let you buy it with three top-grade spirit stones, I won’t be able to explain it to our boss.”
“Manager, do you know why this painting can be regarded as the treasure of the shop?” Dong Xi said with a smile. “Is it because you couldn’t sell it? Even if I have five top-grade spirit stones, I won’t be interested in the weak law energy in this painting. Only I am willing to buy it back to make my wife happy. If you ask for such a sky-high price, I’ll forget about this deal.”
The two of them bargained for a long time. In the end, Dong Xi agreed to pay an additional 200 high-grade spirit stones before buying the painting.
Dong Xi took out Shangguan Yun’er’s painting and said, “Take a look at this painting. How is it?”
The waiter knew that the person in the painting was this Immortal Master. Without decades of brush skill and strength, it was impossible for such a painting to be produced.
The waiter looked carefully for a long time and said, “I wonder who painted this painting. The most valuable thing about it is the combination of reality and illusion. The face in this painting is so real, and the clothes are indeed like an illusion. They blend perfectly with the background. The person in the scene warped the scene entirely…”
When Dong Xi heard these words, she looked at Shangguan Yun’er with a smile. Shangguan Yun’er’s face was slightly red.
Dong Xi kept the painting and said, “This is my wife’s drawing of me. Isn’t it amazing?”
The waiter was speechless.
Old people really could not understand the interest of this young man.
“Impressive!” said the waiter.
Dong Xi was listening to the waiter praise Dong Xi. At this time, Su Cheng’s voice sounded in Dong Xi’s mind.
“You’re really generous. You took my spirit stones to please other women,” said Su Cheng.
The corners of Dong Xi’s mouth curled up slightly as he replied to Su Cheng in his sea of consciousness. Dong Xi said, “It’s not just any woman, okay? This is my wife!”
“Wife?” Su Cheng asked. “Do you really think of yourself as a male?”
“Don’t be so stingy, Big Snake,” said Dong Xi. “Of course, I have my reasons for doing this.”
Shangguan Yun’er had lived for more than forty years, how could she be broken by such a small favor?
Shangguan Yun’er was Yao’s husband, and Dong Xi was Yao’s borrowed power. Both of them took what they needed.
If Dong Xi was able to help Shangguan Yun’er step into the Dao, she would have a great opportunity as a stepping stone. It would also open a convenient door for Dong Xi to handle matters in the Void Sea in the future.
Shangguan Yun’er took the painting and walked out with Dong Xi.
When no one was around, Shangguan Yun’er said, “Husband, why did you buy these two paintings? If you like it, I’ll just draw a few more of you in the future.”
Dong Xi came forward and smiled brightly. Dong Xi said, “I’ll buy it and show it to Madam. If such a painting can be the treasure of the shop, wouldn’t Madam be the treasure of the shop?”
