When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 882 - 345: Spirit Jar (Part 2)

They all recognized Old Jia. Seeing Old Jia guarding the gate at Courtyard No. 7, they were startled and didn't dare to force their way in, secretly guessing in their hearts.

Previously, there were rumors that Li Xiu was the illegitimate son of the President. Now the President's Imperial Gatekeeper was at Courtyard No. 7 again, almost confirming the rumor.

"I just don't know how Li Xiu got so lucky, buying an Ancient Gold Box and actually finding a Divine Position Gemstone inside. Liu He also tried, but he found a box full of underwear. Who can you complain to about this?" Sun Tianlei muttered.

"Tianlei, you've had dealings with Commander Li before. Try to meet him and find out if he has any intention to sell the Divine Position Gemstone." Sun Tianbing said. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Brother, Li Xiu only bought a few gemstones from me, and there was a bit of unpleasantness in between. You want me to find him; you might as well go yourself." Sun Tianlei replied.

"You know I'm not good at talking. You're better suited for this kind of thing, so let you handle it." Sun Tianbing insisted.

"Good things don't come to me, but you find me for this kind of trouble. He doesn't even meet with the Patriarchs of other families, so why would he see me?" Sun Tianlei protested angrily.

"Who else could I turn to, being that you're my brother?" Sun Tianbing said calmly.

Unable to argue back, Sun Tianlei sighed gloomily after a while, "Fine, I'll go find him. If he doesn't want to see me, it's not my fault."

Then he changed the subject: "If... I mean, if Li Xiu is willing to sell, what do you plan to offer for the Divine Position Gemstone? That thing is something people only ever hear about; no one knows its value. You need to give me a number, so if I do meet Li Xiu and he asks how much I intend to offer, I can't just say I'll go back and ask, right?"

Sun Tianbing responded, "The Divine Position Gemstone's value is immeasurable and can't be appraised with money. If Li Xiu is willing to sell, I'm prepared to offer six Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits in exchange. If he disagrees, you can tell him we can add more items."

"Six Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits, you're really willing... Brother... that's not how you negotiate a deal... Forget it... just lay it out clearly for me, and I'll act accordingly..." Sun Tianlei said speechlessly.

"The most valuable thing I have are those six Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits. Each fruit can promote a weapon-type pact to Spirit Casting level. Offering six isn't considered cheap, but if Li Xiu is still not satisfied, I'll offer him whatever I have, or whatever he wants as long as I can obtain it." Sun Tianbing continued.

"Brother, you really don't know how to do business." Sun Tianlei sighed deeply.

He was well aware of the value of those Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits. In the Divine Weapon Celestial Garden within the Sun Family's Land of Trial, there was a Gem Tree, bearing Divine Weapon Fruits, a total of thirty-six. Each fruit could elevate weapon-type pacts from Light Base to Spirit Casting, and its value was unimaginable.

With these Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits, it was like possessing Spirit Forging Level Trial Takers.

The Sun Family had very few Light Base level experts because once someone from the Sun Family reached Light Base level, they could use the Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruit to ascend to Spirit Casting, so the time spent at Light Base level was very short.

The Sun Family doesn't lack Spirit Forging Level but lacks Light Base level members. If they can't advance to Light Base level, possessing the Celestial Spirit Divine Weapon Fruits is useless, so there weren't many living Spirit Forging Level members in the Sun Family.

Over the past few decades, the Sun Family members have used them, and some were given away as favors, leaving only six in Sun Tianbing's possession.

In the Li Family, Li Xianchun was reviewing the accounts in front of him, frowning deeper as he went through them.

"Li Changyin's commotion doesn't matter, but many of the Li Family's original assets were reclaimed by the President. Now the annual revenue the Li Family can receive is less than a third of before." The old servant, Li Guijia, sighed.

"It's inevitable; mistakes have consequences. The President didn't uproot our Li Family, which is already merciful." Li Xianchun said.

"Li Changyin made a mistake, but the whole Li Family has to pay for it. And Li Zhong is solely focused on seeking the Way, just asking for money and resources. I just feel, Patriarch, you have it so hard." Li Guijia commented.

Li Xianchun was unwilling to say more. He pondered over the accounts for a long time before saying, "Old Jia, are those items in the Li Family's inner vault still there?"

"Some were ruined by Li Changyin, but there are seven items left, although three are still sealed, so only four can be used..." Li Guitian replied like reciting family heirlooms.

"Do you think by using those four items to trade for the Divine Position Gemstone, Li Xiu would agree?" Li Xianchun asked softly.

"Well... I don't know... Even though those four items are world wonders with miraculous effects, they cannot be used for upgrading to Divine Position Level, while the Divine Position Gemstone is an absolute treasure that can promote a Spirit Casting level to Divine Position..."

"Regardless, we have to try. Keep an eye on Courtyard No. 7, and notify me first thing if Li Xiu appears." Li Xianchun said with fervor in his eyes.

Although his level was not as high as Li Zhong and was at Light Base level only, the Li Family didn't have many capable people left now, so he had to lead as Patriarch.

However, the reason Li Xianchun's level wasn't high was not due to lack of talent, but because family resources used to be controlled by the brothers Li Changyin and Li Changmian. He didn't get along with those two brothers, so he had limited resources, which is why he hadn't ascended to Spirit Casting yet.
