Tribulation of Myriad Races Chapter 242: Transaction (1)

Chapter 242: Transaction (1)

Inside the training center.

Zheng Yunhui was completely stupefied. The blood essence was actually working!

He checked the data Su Yu gave him again, comparing the materials with what Su Yu had used. He also compared the production process. Everything was the exact same. Su Yu had changed nothing!

When he first saw the formula, he was rather dumbfounded. He was certain that the formula was fake so he hadn’t thought too much about it.

But now…

Zheng Yunhui looked at the formula again and again, comparing the formula with what Su Yu did, and finally…he was completely stunned.

He even started doubting that Su Yu had taken the real formula out. As for the fact that Su Yu had sent him flying with a claw strike, that was nothing. He couldn’t be bothered to care about that.

“Su Yu…”

Zheng Yunhui hurriedly crawled back up and looked at Su Yu in stupefaction. He held a questioning gaze, wondering if he should really sell this formula. Selling it would cause a major incident!

They had attracted quite a lot of attention with this little act of theirs. Why was Su Yu using the real formula now? Was he tired of living?

Su Yu calmly said, “You have the stuff. Take good care of it. Have you checked? Is everything right? Of course, this is a simplified production method. In truth, the research center has some special devices that can increase the success rate of the production. With our special devices, it is also much easier to determine the result of the production. There won’t be a need to consume the blood essence like I did. But I can’t provide you with all those devices. You will have to think of something yourself.”

Zheng Yunhui wanted to speak, but he didn’t know what to say.

Su Yu stood up and took the rest of the materials with him. He smiled, “We shouldn’t be wasteful so I’ll be taking these with me. You’re fine with that, right?”

“Yeah…”

Zheng Yunhui did not care. He was still in a state of shock. What should he do now?

“Alright then. I’ll be taking my leave. Remember, keep this secret!” Su Yu solemnly warned, “Zheng Yunhui, you already have the stuff. But after I walk out of this building, I won’t admit to leaking the data. You have no proof to drag me down anyway. If you dare to leak this, I’ll be sure to accuse you of stealing from our research center!

“Even if my teacher suspects me, he won’t have any proof. The only thing everyone will know is that the data is in your hands. Zheng Yunhui, don’t blame me for not warning you if you end up doing something stupid!”

Zheng Yunhui rolled his eyes, “How am I capable of stealing from your research center.”

“Heh, don’t be too sure about it. If I’m desperate enough, I’ll just admit to being a spy of your Zheng Family. After they kick me out, you guys will need to sponsor my future cultivation instead. Otherwise, I’ll tell everyone that your Zheng Family has abandoned me after making use of me! Everyone will know how untrustworthy your Zheng Family is!”

Zheng Yunhui was completely speechless. Damn it! This scumbag! He couldn’t even be bothered to say anything in response. He was still busy wondering if the data was real. He really didn’t know what to think anymore.

He was sure that the blood essence Su Yu had consumed earlier had all been purchased alongside the other materials earlier. In that case, why had he been able to use the racial ability of the iron-winged bird with it?

Had he opened the required acupoints in advance? Impossible! It was far too easy to see that those acupoints had only been opened temporarily. He could feel a headache coming.

Zheng Yunhui was very troubled. If the data was real, things would be troublesome after selling it. That was especially true since so many people were already aware of it. If Su Yu had notified him earlier that the data was real, he would have found someone to buy it in secret. But now, there were far too many eyes on him.

“Bye.”

Su Yu did not say anything else. He was still badly injured. Although he had absorbed a few drops of blood essence, he still needed some time to heal. Zheng Yunhui watched helplessly as Su Yu left.

Third floor.

Right after Su Yu left, Zhou Pingsheng said, “Go! Get the data immediately!”

Liu Hong was still dumbfounded. He was even starting to get angry at himself. If he had known that the data was real, he wouldn’t have spread the news and snatched the data for himself instead.

The data was worth more than the price Zheng Yunhui had asked for. But it was too late for regret.

While walking out of the room, Liu Hong was still questioning himself. Why was the data real? Were both Bai Feng and Chen Yong fools? Why did they let Su Yu obtain something so valuable?

That kid had only joined the research center for slightly over a month. Were those two fools for trusting him so easily? Bai Feng might be an asshole, but he definitely didn’t look so stupid.

Liu Hong still couldn’t fully believe that the data was real, but unlike before, he was no longer so sure that it was fake.

“Whatever. I’ll just make a little bit less money. Tens of thousands of merit points are still a decent sum of money.”

Liu Hong could only comfort himself that way. He decided to report an even higher price to his superiors and claim more money from them for the deal.

At this point, he would take what he could get. It was also good for the data to be real. This way, there wouldn’t be any other problems cropping up for him after the deal. After all, if the data was fake, he would still need to think of a way to rid himself of the blame.DiisCoover 𝒖pdated novels on n(o)v./e/lbin(.)co𝒎

When Liu Hong left the room, he saw that the middle-aged man from the Xia Family and Xia Huyou had just left the opposite room as well. Both parties were now face to face with each other.

They stared at each other in silence. Suddenly, Zhou Pingsheng smiled and said from inside the room, “Brother Xia, it has been a while since we last met. Why don’t you come in for tea?”

The middle-aged man frowned, but he soon smiled and said, “Huyou, you’ll take charge. I’ll have a chat with Manager Zhou.”

Xia Huyou nodded and said nothing. He went downstairs alongside Liu Hong.

At the same time.

Outside the training center.

A few other individuals had arrived. These people were completely covered up from head to toe, hiding their true appearances. Even their presence felt illusory with willpower undulations covering their bodies.

They did not seem to be in the same group. Outside the training center, they merely gave each other a glance before silently entering the building. In the restaurant beside the training center.

Jia Mingzhen focused on the newcomers for a bit before frowning, “I can’t see through their identities. Should we act? We’re still inside the academy!”

They had to be alert since a group of unknown individuals had sneaked into the academy.

The female elder shook her head, “No. Just wait for them to leave before tailing them. We can act after we know more. We can easily scare some people off if we move too early.”

“How about the data?” An elder asked, “That Su Yu is too brash! It would be very troublesome if the data is leaked outside the academy.”

Jia Mingzhen indifferently said, “There’s nothing we can do if the data ends up in the hands of the single character faction or the Xia Family. They’re using their own money to buy the private data of a privately owned research center. What can we do to them? If they are our enemies, we can probably still find an excuse to deal with them. But it’s hard for us to make a move against the Xia Family and the single character faction.”

They sank into silence.

Yes. This was quite a thorny issue.

Jia Mingzhen laughed, “It’s fine. The multiple character faction is the only one who will suffer a loss from this. And Su Yu is the culprit. They can only blame themselves for being blind and recruiting such a student. I don’t pity Hong Tan, but I do feel like it is a waste for a talented student like Su Yu to be such a person.”

The elders sank into silence again.

Yes. It was a waste. A genius like this had betrayed his faction out of greed. Who would dare to accept him in the future? Even if the multiple character faction spared him, he would no longer have any future.

The mood was somber. These elders weren’t too happy after witnessing the ruin of a freakish genius. Originally, they had been looking forward to the exposure that this was a lie. But now…they really couldn’t describe how they were feeling.

After a while, Jia Mingzhen was the first to recover. With a smile, he said, “Keep watching the show!”

They did not return to the previous topic. Suddenly, one of them recalled something and said, “And it’s time for someone to eat this table.”

“…”

Jia Mingzhen acted like he hadn’t heard anything. What? Who was going to eat a table?

Had he said those words? Nope!

The others rolled their eyes. They knew that this fellow was going to go back on his words.
