Starting With 100 Million Lives

Chapter 368: He Actually Dares to Raise the Price?


Don't be misled by the words 'Middle Immortal Realm's greatest benefactor' I just uttered. That was merely flattery for Sect Leader Jiang, hoping he wouldn't refuse to sell.

There's no cost to throwing a compliment.

Only they know what they're truly thinking.

Now, hearing such talk, they're quite incredulous.

Sacrificing their own interests just to let us ascend?

And claiming it'd elevate their spiritual realm?

Is there really such a noble person in the Middle Immortal Realm?

They find it hard to believe!

"Elder Jiang, this is..."

"This truly moves us deeply!"

"Such a realm shames us in comparison!"

Brother Cheng accepted the praises with a smile, and only when there was nothing more to praise did he wave his hand.

"But, as you heard earlier, selling one to you means one less Feixian Sect disciple goes up."

"That's a major loss for our Feixian Sect."

"So, there will be additional loss fees for the subsequent Immortal Fate Orders."

Thud!

Sect Leader Yuan Zhen, Second Elder Yuan Shu, and others nearly fell over.

Earlier, they mentioned not raising the price to retain his elderly reputation.

But now Brother Cheng himself raised the price openly, where could they put their old faces?

The other Immortal Venerables present were stunned...

Oh, so all that build-up earlier was just to raise the price?

Why didn't you say so earlier, we ended up saying so much nice stuff.

"Why are you all silent? Can't understand? If you don't, you can opt not to buy."

Everyone quickly agreed: "We understand, we understand!"

"Of course we understand, with such losses to your sect, compensating them is justified."

At this critical juncture, not buying was not an option for them.

Someone impatiently asked, "So, Elder Jiang, how much do you plan to sell it for?"

"Um..."

Brother Cheng touched his chin in thought: "Let's increase it by 1 million Immortal Crystals, can't be too harsh."

"Henceforth, the Immortal Fate Orders will be sold for 4 million each."

Upon hearing this price, the expressions of those present varied, their moods mixed.

Some breathed a sigh of relief, as they could afford 4 million.

Others could only gather 3 million, so they felt a bit dejected.

"Elder Jiang, can't you make it a bit cheaper!"

"Yes, we don't have enough..."

"If you don't have enough, there's nothing I can do. This old ancestor must justify the price reasonably for my sect's disciples, right?"

On this issue, Brother Cheng's stance was firm, with no room for compromise.

If you think it's expensive, you don't have to buy!

He felt no sympathy for these people.

After all, the Immortal Fate Orders were being sold for months, if you hesitated initially and didn't come sooner, that's on you.

In the end, when over 30,000 are completely sold, someone will still regret coming too late.

And then, who could they blame?

Blame him?

At the price of 4 million, more than 700 of over 1,000 people made immediate transactions.

Miss this chance, and there won't be another shop like it.

The remaining folks without sufficient Immortal Crystals could only leave for now.

As soon as they came out, the Immortals outside, eager to watch the excitement, buzzed with interest.

For months, those Immortal Venerables entering Feixian Sect hadn't come out.

Choosing to remain in the 'safe zone' for Brother Cheng's protection.

This was the first batch that went in and came out again.

"What happened?"

"I got it, they're sold out!"

"Yes, their Immortal Fate Orders are all gone."

"This drama has finally concluded!"

Just as everyone engaged in heated discussions, the group of Elders from Feixian Sect flew out.

Facing the crowd, Yuan Zhen Immortal Venerable infused his voice with Immortal Power, echoing far and wide.

"The sect's old ancestor commands!"

"Initially, all Immortal Fate Orders were sold, the rest reserved for Feixian Sect disciples."

"However, considering many Immortal Venerables yearn for ascension, the sect's old ancestor, out of goodwill, has decided to sacrifice some sect interests and offer an additional 50,000 Immortal Fate Orders!"

"Due to the additional 50,000 Immortal Fate Orders causing 50,000 of our disciples to be unable to ascend, the losses are immense, thus prices are adjusted to 4 million top-grade Immortal Crystals!"

With that said, the group returned to Feixian Sect.

The Immortals observing outside became uproarious.

"What, dare to raise the price again?"

"Damn, 3 million was already ridiculously high, who knew it could be even greedier?"

"Has he gone mad?"

"To earn Immortal Crystals, even selling his sect disciples' chance to ascend..."

"Such a sect ancestor is too cold-hearted."

"4 million, only a fool would buy, right?"

"It seems some already have, many who went in didn't come out."

"Those folks just couldn't back down, there won't be any more later, just wait and see!"

The news of the price increase spread rapidly.

Given that Feixian Sect had become the 'world center' of the Middle Immortal Realm, everyone was idle and closely watched for movement here.

Upon hearing the price hike, naturally, there was an uproar again.

Those from Feixian Sect's other branch who purchased the Immortal Fate Orders in advance, like Chenhuo Immortal Venerable, felt absolutely delighted.

They couldn't help but admire their decisiveness, arriving early and saving 1 million.

But others outside didn't share the sentiment.

Brother Cheng was unsurprisingly cursed by countless people, attaining the title of 'Middle Immortal Realm's number one black-hearted person'.

Even being dubbed with the moniker 'Black Heart Immortal King'.

"I dare to bet, certainly no one will buy this time!"

"Indeed, raising the price on a whim, he's treating everyone like fools."

"These 50,000 Immortal Fate Orders, selling even 10,000 would mean I lose the bet!"

Merely five days later, those predicting unsold orders found themselves embarrassed, swiftly proven wrong.

Staring at Immortal Venerables like a school of carp crossing the river, those outside anticipating a joke were dumbfounded.

"How could this be?"

"Why, despite raising the price by 1 million Immortal Crystals, are more people buying?"

"This... I don't understand either."

"These people are insane, absolutely insane."

No choice, when the news of the price increase broke, many cursed.

Some originally intending to buy changed their minds.

Yet another group was compelled to act more urgently due to this.

These are already being squeezed out from their share of 50,000, delay any longer and it'll truly be too late.

Higher price meant greater value, similar to the notion of scalped tickets, the higher the price, the more people scramble to buy. If the price stayed unchanged, not as many would rush.

These days, almost ten thousand people swarm in daily, exceeding everyone's expectations.

Five days later, the news came from Feixian Sect, the new batch of 50,000 Immortal Fate Orders sold out.

No stock left, everyone disperse.

At the entrance stood many Immortal Venerables unable to buy, filled with sorrow and despair!

"Sell a bit more!"

"Yes, sell some more?"

"We came through great effort, traveled as swiftly as possible, might there be an exception, even selling one more would work!"

Sect Leader Yuan Zhen Immortal Venerable could only offer an apologetic bow.

"No more, everyone, truly no more!"

"Selling additional 50,000 has already caused 50,000 Feixian Sect disciples unable to ascend."

"Hope you understand, return home, return home..."
