"Shut the hell up!" Suddenly, a loud shout rang out.
The people in the jewellery store fell silent.
All eyes were on the source of the voice, Lei Muchun.
Lei Muchun frowned and glanced at the people, saying, "In all matters, there should be an order. Chen Shao clearly intends to sell the exotic stone to the jewellery store. I haven't even named a price yet, why are you all in such a hurry to meddle?"
Seeing Lei Muchun's anger, the customers quickly closed their mouths.
Lei Muchun looked at Chen You with a gentle and friendly smile, saying, "Young Master Chen, exotic stones haven't appeared for many years. I wonder where Chen Shao obtained this exotic stone?"
Chen You squinted his eyes and said, "I don't have time to answer your question. If you're not buying, I'll sell it to someone else." With that, he reached out as if to take back the Immortal Stone.
"Ah! Wait..." Lei Muchun hurriedly extended his hand to stop Chen You's action, saying, "I'll offer 100 million!"
"How about it?" Lei Muchun looked at Chen You and said, "I'll offer 100 million."
100 million, this price was beyond what Chen You had expected.
In Chen You's opinion, if the immortal stone was worth a few millions, it would already be very good. He hadn't expected Lei Muchun to offer such high price.
One hundred million was an astronomical figure for ordinary people, something they could never hope to obtain in their entire lives.
Chen You hesitated for a moment.
Feeling Chen You's hesitation, Lei Muchun started sweating on her forehead and said, "Alright, 120 million. This is currently the highest price I can offer. Any higher, and I won't be able to do it. I believe none of the customers here can offer a higher price than me."
Upon hearing this, Chen You glanced at the customers. Those who had been bidding eagerly were now all silent. Obviously, as Lei Muchun had said, 120 million was indeed a price they couldn't afford.
However, Chen You, who found it troublesome, didn't want to say much more. He nodded and said, "120 million it is."
Lei Muchun smiled with joy and said, "Chen Shao is truly a wise seller. Please wait a moment." She took out a stack of checks from her pocket, placed them on the counter, and picked up a pen to fill in the numbers and signed off.
She tore the check out and handed it to Chen You.
Chen You took the check and glanced at the number written on it. After confirming it was correct, he placed the check into his pocket.
Chen You thought to himself.
In addition to the immortal stone, he also had something else, called the Inner Dan.
In the immortal realm, there was a type of species known as fierce beasts. Each fierce beast contained an Inner Dan, which held a very volatile energy that even immortals couldn't absorb. Unless it underwent refinement, some alchemists liked to use the Inner Dan of fierce beasts as a material to refine elixirs.
Inside Chen You's Qiankun Ring, there were many Inner Dans from the fierce beasts he had slaughtered in the immortal realm during his adventures.
He wondered if that thing was as valuable as the immortal stone?
Thinking about it, Chen You said, "Wait a moment."
Just as Lei Muchun was about to go inside and carefully examine the exotic stone, he paused and turned to look at Chen You. He showed a gentle and friendly smile, saying, "Chen Shao, is there something else?"
Chen You said, "I have another treasure that I'd like you to see."
Treasure? Lei Muchun's heart skipped a beat, a hint of surprise creeping in.
"Yes," Chen You responded. His palm opened, and as it did, a burst of crimson light shone forth.
Resting in the palm of his hand was a bead, about the size of a cow's eye, but this was no ordinary bead. Even at a distance from the bead, Lei Muchun could almost feel an intense heat emanating from it.
The moment Lei Muchun saw the bead, his eyes widened.
"Red Blood Bead!" he practically shouted.
Red Blood Bead? What was that? Chen You didn't quite understand. But he was certain that this thing was definitely not the Red Blood Bead Lei Muchun was referring to. Lei Muchun must have made a mistake.
"What is the Red Blood Bead?" Chen You asked.
Lei Muchun snapped back to reality.
Noticing Chen You's inquiring gaze, Lei Muchun couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of excitement.

He possesses a treasure but doesn't know its use! Lei Muchun smiled, "Actually, it's not very useful. It's mainly used for keeping warm in winter, with limited practicality. If Chen Shao wishes to sell it, I'd be willing to offer a satisfactory price out of respect for you."
Swindler!
Chen You knew perfectly well that Lei Muchun was trying to deceive him. Clearly, Lei Muchun was underestimating him.
In fact, Lei Muchun had never regarded Chen You as someone who was of similar intellect as her. If it weren't for those foolish customers making a scene just now, he wouldn't have offered such a high price for the exotic stone. Apparently, those customers who were bidding for the Red Blood Bead earlier couldn't discern what it was either. He believed there wouldn't be any more commotion.
This way, he could lower the price and buy this exquisite treasure!
Chen You closed his hand and retrieved the Red Blood Bead.
"Lin Shao," Lei Muchun's voice stopped him, smiling as he said, "Do you have anything else?"
Chen You said, "I'm afraid of the cold in winter, so I can use it to keep warm. No need to trouble you any further, Lei Sha." With that, he turned and walked out.
One hundred and twenty million was enough for Chen You to splurge. He was already content with the money, and he couldn't be bothered with this cunning merchant named Lei Muchun.
"Wait, Chen Shao! Just a moment... Our store has a policy that customers with purchases over 10 million receive a special gift delivered to them. If you could provide an address, I'll have the gift sent to you later." Lei Muchun called out.
Customers with over ten million in purchases had gifts delivered? This was the first time he'd heard of it. Business in the mortal realm seemed quite extraordinary. But Chen You wasn't interested. He said, "No need." He left the jewellery store without looking back.
"Chen Shao!" Lei Muchun grew anxious. He watched a Lexus gradually recede into the distance.
"Damn it!" The seemingly refined Lei Muchun couldn't help but curse, kicking a stone in frustration.
Chen You had no idea what Lei Muchun was thinking, and he didn't care to know.
Now, Chen You felt he needed his own bank card.
While several million could be held in cash, over a billion couldn't. If he wanted to buy elixirs worth over a billion in the future and still pay in cash, it would definitely raise suspicions. More importantly, if Lei Muchun had tried to transfer the money via bank card instead of using a check, it would have been awkward for Chen You.
So, a bank card was necessary.
The problem was, to get a bank card, he needed his ID, and his ID had been left in his school dormitory when Chen You left the school.
Frowning, Chen You thought to himself, looks like I'll have to make a trip back to school.
True to his word, Chen You drove straight to the school gate.
It was already late into the night, and the school gate was tightly locked.
"Bang!" Chen You got out of the car and closed the door.
He glanced at the tightly sealed gate.
It was around ten o'clock at night, and the school didn't allow entry or exit at this time.
To avoid trouble, Chen You climbed over the wall to enter the school, then made his way to his male dormitory building. Following his memory of the route, he went up to the dormitory and arrived at his own dormitory.
He opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, the dim room suddenly brightened.
Chen You was taken aback, his gaze fixed on the interiors.
Standing in the room were two men dressed in black suits, standing respectfully. Peering further in, a middle-aged man stood up from the bed. Fine wrinkles could be seen on his face, his hair was a mix of black and white, and he wore a faint smile. Even though the smile was friendly, it couldn't conceal his sense of superiority that came from long years of being in a position of power.
If an ordinary person were facing this middle-aged man, they would definitely feel uneasy. But Chen You was different. He slowly retracted his hand from the door handle and looked over the three individuals with an indifferent gaze.
According to his memory, his roommates should be inside playing computer games, but now he saw three strangers.
And through the gaze of the middle-aged man, it was clear that these three were here for him.
Chen You was curious to see the intentions of these three.
The middle-aged man, named Lin Zhen, began to speak with a smile, "Chen Shao, there's no need to be so nervous. Allow me to introduce myself first. My name is Lin Zhen, and I am the head of the Lin family."
Lin Family? As far as Chen You knew, the previous owner of his body had suffered a lot of insults from the Lin family. He felt that he didn't need to be overly polite to people from the Lin family. Moreover, he only wanted to get a bank card at the moment and was feeling a bit impatient, so he straightforwardly said, "If you have something to say, say it. If not, then get lost."
"Insolent!" The black-clad man beside him couldn't stand it anymore. He moved closer to Chen You, reached out, and grabbed Chen You's collar. "The person speaking to you is the head of the Lin family. Don’t you comprehend the situation? How dare you speak to the head like this? Are you tired of living?" With that, he intended to lift Chen You up, but with a sudden force, Chen You's body remained as immovable as a hard rock.
The black-clad man was stunned, meeting Chen You's cold, black eyes.
His face changed slightly.
Chen You raised his right hand, gripping the black-clad man's wrist and giving it a twist. The black-clad man's body was turned around, and with a kick, he fell beneath the man's ribs.
"Crack!"
Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, the black-clad man was sent flying, crashing against the wall with a thud before slumping to the ground, emitting a muffled sound.
Chen You adjusted his collar, calmly saying, "I really can't stand people grabbing my collar."
The other black-clad man saw this and was about to make a move.
"Hold it!" Lin Zhen exclaimed.
The black-clad man's steps halted.
Lin Zhen's gaze fell on Chen You, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.
The other man, named Lin Qiao, was one of the seven stewards of the Lin family and had reached the Tenth Stage of the Yellow Brass Realm in strength. Yet, such a strong figure was defeated with ease by Chen You with just one kick?
At first, Lin Zhen had some doubts about Zhang Steward's words, but now he believed him.
That single kick made it clear that Chen You's strength was far beyond that of the Tenth Stage of Yellow Brass!
