"It's just over one million federal coins. If I buy all the energy liquid, will I have to eat dirt?"
Jiang Li's face fell. At this moment, he hoped that his aunt could leave more. Not to mention 100 million, at least 10 million would be fine.
Take off directly!
"Oh, and here's the gift my parents left for me!"
Jiang Li's eyes lit up and he became excited. What if he was left with a large fortune? Wouldn't that mean he would ascend to heaven directly? He hurriedly fumbled around on the cabinet in his room.
Bang bang bang!
The crisp sound made Jiang Li's heart jump.
"There really is a secret compartment!"
Jiang Li grabbed the secret compartment and pulled it out. A wooden box that smelled of sandalwood came into view. On the box were carvings of various ferocious beasts, which looked lifelike.
"So impressive?"
He carefully opened the wooden box, and a black jade bead lay quietly inside.
Swish!
As Jiang Li picked up the black jade bead, a shadow appeared above it. Two stunning figures appeared. The man was as handsome as an immortal, and the woman was stunningly beautiful, like a couple from heaven. They were Jiang Li's parents, Jiang Fan and Mu Hanmei.
Jiang Li was excited. He hadn't seen these two familiar figures for a long time.
"Dad, Mom!"
He reached out to touch it, but it passed right through, leaving a spot of light on his hand. This was just a pre-recorded image.
"Li'er, happy birthday. This is our coming-of-age gift to you. I hope you like it. I know you have a lot of doubts, but there are many things we cannot help. Don't blame your parents."
"You must always carry this black jade bead with you. It will keep you safe. Don't overthink it. Live your life well. If things go well, your parents will be back soon."
Mu Han's eyes were filled with tears and reluctance. His cold eyes completely melted in front of his son. Jiang Fan remained silent, but his father's love was as strong as a mountain and the concern in his eyes was equally deep.
at the same time.
At the moment Jiang Li opened the wooden box, two powerful figures stood with their hands behind their backs in the distant starry sky, and the stars were annihilated with a wave of their hands.
"Time flies so fast, Li'er has grown up now, Hanmei, was the decision we made back then really the right one?"
Jiang Fan whispered, and with a finger pointed, a terrifying figure was suppressed.
Mu Hanmei's brows were filled with murderous intent.
"I don't care. I just don't want Li'er to have to endure all this! He just needs to grow up happily!"
She swung the long sword in her hand, and the sword energy spanned thousands of miles. Large groups of gray figures turned into ashes amid wailing.
"With the Myriad Beasts Pearl and Qingxue's care, Li'er will have no worries in his life."
"Brother Fan, I miss Li'er."
Mu Hanmei couldn't hold back her tears after all.
Jiang Fan hugged his wife and comforted her softly:
"Almost there, almost there."
......
Jiang Li watched the image gradually dissipate, took a deep breath, found a rope and put the black jade bead around his neck. He stroked it slowly, and the black jade bead emitted waves of warmth, just like his parents were by his side.
"Mom and Dad, just wait, I will find you!"
Jiang Li's eyes were full of determination. With a cultivation system that could increase his power ten thousand times, his growth rate would astonish everyone. By then, in the face of absolute power, any difficulty would be solved with just one punch.
Beep beep!
The notification sound from Tianxun interrupted Jiang Li's thoughts.
The call was connected, it was Li Wanhe.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, what time is it? Let's do it or not! Let's meet at the usual place, Tiandi Renwoyou Competitive Internet Cafe."
"I know it's your birthday today, but I specially bought you a 998 membership so you can become a god of war and have fun as much as you want. I think that's very considerate of me, hehe!"
Li Wanhe appeared on the video projection with a wink, which alleviated Jiang Li's sadness. Before, Jiang Li might have surfed the Internet cafe like Li Wanhe, but now, he had other plans.
"God of War, come with me somewhere today."
"where?"
"A black market street!"
......
An hour later, Jiang Li got off the hovering taxi and saw Li Wanhe scratching his head.
"Brother Li, why are we running here instead of going to the internet cafe?"
"Buy energy liquid." Jiang Li said calmly.
Li Wanhe was stunned and stretched out his hand. "Brother Li, you don't have a fever, do you? How about I take you to see a doctor?"
"Why would we use that thing with our talents? Not only is it ridiculously expensive, a D-grade energy liquid costs 100,000 federal coins. We'd be lucky if we could get a 10% conversion rate on the energy liquid, just to increase our health by one card?"
It’s no wonder Li Wanhe thinks this way.
Although D-level energy liquid can provide 10 calories of Qi and blood energy, it involves the issue of energy conversion rate. Generally, geniuses only have a conversion rate of 20%-30%.
"Our family is not like Zhang Sen, a prodigal son who can spend money on energy liquid."
"I bought C-grade energy liquid."
Jiang Li slapped Li Wanhe's right hand away and walked forward.
"You're crazy, Brother Li, you're really crazy." Li Wanhe held his forehead with his hand.
It's not the case that the higher the grade of energy liquid, the better. For noobs like them at the quasi-warrior stage, using C-grade energy liquid is simply a waste of resources. The conversion rate will be shockingly low. However, he didn't know that Jiang Li now doesn't need to worry about the conversion rate at all.
A bottle of C-grade energy liquid is equivalent to 100 calories of energy and blood in his case!
"One million federal coins! With that money, we might as well buy some king-level beast meat."
Li Wanhe muttered carefully.
"If you keep pushing me, I'll beat you up."
Jiang Li glanced at him and Li Wanhe immediately shut up, knowing that his good brother would not change his decision.
"Okay, okay, I know a private store on Black Market Street that's offering a 2% discount."
Jiang Li's eyes lit up. With a 98% discount, he could save 20,000 federal coins, enough for his food for several months.
"Take me there, I know it's the right thing to bring your boy with you."
Li Wanhe has always been wild, so he knows a lot of gossip.
"Hehe!" Li Wanhe took the lead and stopped trying to dissuade Jiang Li. What else could he do? He might as well have fun with his good brother.
"Boss Qian, I want to buy some energy liquid. Do you have any in stock?"
Just entered the store.
Li Wanhe acted like an old customer and spoke bluntly.
"Oh, it's Xiao Li. We must have it in stock. A new batch just arrived, and it's 2% off!"
"Why, you and this little brother each want a bottle of D-level?"
Boss Qian said with a smile.
"I'm not buying it, my buddy is buying it. I want a bottle of Grade C." Li Wanhe whispered.
A hint of surprise flashed in Boss Qian's eyes, and he looked Jiang Li up and down. One million energy liquids were not something that ordinary people could afford.
"Brother, don't judge a person by his appearance. We also have C-grade energy liquid, but you have to wait a while. I'll have someone go to the warehouse to pick it up."
"You guys go to the lounge and wait for a while."
"Okay!"
Li Wanhe responded and pulled Jiang Li straight to the lounge. He had been here many times and was already familiar with the place. However, as soon as they entered the lounge, they were stunned. A familiar figure was sitting there quietly.
It was Su Yueyue, the recognized beauty of Class 3-4.
