In the short term, Chen Xiaobei might appea to have made a loss, wasting 100 million Spiritual Stones and only getting 10 million Merit Points in return.
In the long term however, Chen Xiaobei got the key to rescuing Diao Chan, and also got himself three demi-G.o.d level Beast Kings as his loyal hounds.
Most importantly, Chen Xiaobei won the hearts of one million young people of the Northern Wilderness!
This time, Chen Xiaobei truly experienced the convenience of prestige and the favor of the people.
It was not unlike what Wenren Muyue said, that once Chen Xiaobei's list was sent out, it would create a ripple effect, and news would spread like wildfire all over the Northern Wilderness Starfield. Hundreds of thousands of youngsters from different places would stand up for Chen Xiaobei. Only a small portion of them were afraid of Tie Family.
In the short three days, the items on Chen Xiaobei's list were sent all over the Northern Wilderness Starfield. That was way faster than the Chamber of Commerce itself getting their stock.
In fact, a lot of the families were willing to donate the things to Chen Xiaobei without taking a single penny from him.
Had Chen Xiaobei accepted the items without paying, he could save himself a large sum of Spiritual Stones.
The Chinese have a saying that went, 'The one who wins the favor of the common people will win the world'.
Of course, Chen Xiaobei did not take advantage of this. He did as he promised, and paid everyone for the items 30% higher than the market price.
This decision had Chen Xiaobei pay a huge sum of 300 million low-grade Spiritual Stones.
However, in the long run, this was a profitable business transaction.
Even though Chen Xiaobei spent 300 million low-grade Spiritual Stones, he had also bought the hearts of many people!
He let the n.o.ble families profit this time so that when Chen Xiaobei needed help the next time, they would be more than happy to oblige him.
On top of that, Chen Xiaobei was able to gather all the materials needed to fix the portal sooner than his had originally planned.
This meant that the Northern Wilderness Overlord's second test was already completed halfway.
Additionally, Chen Xiaobei could use the spare time to cultivate, and settle his business at Emperor Qin's tomb.
Of course, more importantly, Chen Xiaobei had enough time to deal with the remaining people of the South Town Star Temple.
With Lu Gang in the way, Chen Xiaobei would not be able to officially rule the South Town Star Temples.
A fierce battle was inevitable!
In the Secret s.p.a.ce.
"Now that we have all the ingredients, let's get back to earth! I will do my best to help you fix the portal as quickly as possible!" Bai Linsu said.
"There's no need to hurry. Stay here and wait for a few days." Chen Xiaobei said.
"Wait for a few days? But why?" Bai Linsu asked, confused. "Aren't you in a hurry? Why are we waiting?"
"Because there are still some obstacles back on earth that I need to eliminate in order for me to take control of South Town Star Temple," Chen Xiaobei said.
"Obstacles? Do you need my help?" Bai Linhu said.
"No, I will figure it out myself." Chen Xiaobei shook his head.
"Mr. Chen, you saved our lives. Please don't feel obliged!" Bai Linsu said earnestly.
"I'm not being obliging; I just have to be careful!" Chen Xiaobei said. "I suspect that the Northern Wilderness Overlord has a spy in Atlantis! If you help me, you will be exposed to the Overlord's field of vision! If he decides to conspire against you, it would be really bad then!"
"Mm, now that you put it that way, it really is better to be cautious!" Bai Linsu nodded. "The Northern Wilderness Overlord and the master of the Lu Family have a private arrangement! In recent years, I've frequently been to Northern Wilderness. If our presence is exposed, Yi Family will definitely travel here to kill me, and you would be dragged into my problems as well!"
Chen Xiaobei nodded. "Mm, because of that, I have to get rid of that obstacle in Atlantis on my own. You stay here and wait for my word!"
"Can you do that all by yourself?" Bai Linsu frowned. "If I'm not mistaken, the enemy's cultivation should be at a demiG.o.d level!"
"Don't worry, I can!" Chen Xiaobei chuckled. "Even if my cultivation is not high enough, I can still unleash the kraken!"
"Unleash the kraken? What do you mean?" Bai Linsu asked.
"I cannot reveal that secret. Anyway, the conclusion is, that I can take care of it!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged.
Bai Linsu nodded. She could not figure out what Chen Xiaobei was going to do, but having experienced all kinds of things previously, Bai Linsu had faith in Chen Xiaobei. If he said that he could, then he could!
After that, Chen Xiaobei did not leave the Secret s.p.a.ce immediately, but rested for half a day.
It was not that Chen Xiaobei was lazy, but the first round of King of Glory compet.i.tion was a due to take place tonight!
After dinner, Chen XIaobei hurried back to his room.
