459: Chapter 459 The Divine Child's Reverse Extortion: Earning Four Hundred Million with Tears in His Eyes!

Under Qian Duoduo's extremely professional "fee collection" service, the entire transaction process went unexpectedly smoothly.

Although every Prodigy who paid had a frustrated expression that screamed "I've been screwed" written all over their face.

But they didn't dare to utter the slightest complaint.

After all, two "vicious gods" were still standing there, one on the left and one on the right.

One was a black-clad swordsman holding an Emperor Weapon; his Sword Intent made one's eyes hurt just by looking at it.

The other was a muscular monk with funny eyebrows drawn on; his muscles were more exaggerated than those of a Pure-blooded Demon Ape.

Anyone who dared to cause trouble now would surely end up a hundred times worse than Thunder Shatterer, who was still "face-braking and drifting" on the lizard's tail.

In just half an incense stick's time.

The more than three thousand Prodigies present all "willingly" handed over an "entrance fee" of one hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

Qian Duoduo looked at the mountain of Storage Pouches before him, along with various rare beast cores and Heaven And Earth Treasures used as collateral; his fat face was grinning so wide his eyes were squeezed shut.

Clutching a huge sack that was nearly bursting, he scurried over to Su Chen, his voice trembling with excitement.

"Boss! We've struck it rich! We've made a fortune!"

"A total of 3,782 people. We collected 378.2 million Spirit Stones alone!"

"And with all those miscellaneous items, it adds up to at least another 50 million!"

"Boss, this time... our net profit exceeds 400 million!"

400 million! And in Top-Grade Spirit Stones!

Qian Duoduo felt like he was about to faint from happiness.

Their Wanbao Pavilion on the Xuanyuan Continent couldn't earn this much in a year of back-breaking work!

But now, the Boss just moved his lips, and the money came in like it was blown by a gale!

How was this earning money? This was clearly robbery!

Following the Boss really pays off!

The way Qian Duoduo looked at Su Chen had turned into the fanatical gaze one would give the God of Wealth.

After hearing the report, Su Chen timely allowed a hint of "grief" to show on his face.

He took the heavy sack and turned to everyone with a sorrowful expression.

"Fellow Daoists, you've worked hard."

"Seeing everyone being so generous for the sake of an Opportunity, I, Su Chen, am deeply moved."

"Although I've accepted this money, my heart is bleeding!"

As Su Chen spoke, he even pounded his chest vigorously; his acting was so good that the Oscars owed him a golden statuette.

[Holy crap, these suckers are way too fat!]

[They scraped together 400 million just like that? If I'd known, I would've asked for 200,000!]

[A miscalculation; my vision was too small.]

[Whatever, I'll just consider it a lesson for them. Who told them to dare threaten me earlier?]

[Sweet, a massive profit made with 'tears'!]

While bullet comments were racing through Su Chen's mind, Jian Buping and the others behind him were completely numb.

Not only was their boss's strength abnormal, but the thickness of his skin had probably already attained the Dao and reached the Emperor realm.

Looking at Su Chen's "getting a bargain and acting like the victim" smug face, the Prodigies present were all trembling with rage, nearly grinding their teeth to bits.

But what could they do? They could only swallow their anger.

"Fellow Daoist Su... since the money has been collected, then... can the door be opened?"

Gu He squeezed out a smile that looked worse than crying and reminded him cautiously.

He was truly afraid this guy would just take the money and run; then they would truly become the biggest laughingstock of the cultivation world.

"Oh, right, open the door."

Su Chen stood up slowly from his throne as if he had just realized.

Under the gaze of thousands of expectant and nervous eyes, he walked step by step to the hundred-zhang-tall Glazed Golden Gate.

He looked up at the gate, which reeked of nouveau riche vibes, and quickly found a basin-sized coin slot in the center.

Beside it, a line of small characters was carved in an extremely flashy gold font:

[Insert Spirit Stones to unlock the Treasure Trove.]

[The more you invest, the more you get. Fair prices for all.]

[The final right of interpretation belongs to Great Emperor Rich Blockhead.]

Seeing these lines, the corners of Su Chen's mouth twitched violently.

[Good grief, this familiar sense of a web game top-up interface...]

[Could this Great Emperor Rich Blockhead be a fellow transmigrator?]

[If there's no trap in this thing, I, Su Chen, will eat this door on the spot!]

While complaining wildly in his mind, Su Chen's face remained as calm as a breeze.

He glanced back at the group of eager Prodigies, then casually grabbed a large handful of Top-Grade Spirit Stones from the sack, about a million or so.

"Clatter—!"

He dumped all the Spirit Stones into the slot like trash.

The next second!

The entire Glazed Golden Gate suddenly burst with golden light, and a thunderous "rumbling" sound echoed, as if a sleeping giant beast was about to wake up!

Seeing this, everyone was thrilled, their faces filled with ecstasy!

It's opening! It's opening!

It's finally opening!

However, just when everyone thought the gate was about to swing open, the blinding golden light suddenly dimmed.

Immediately after.

A line of golden characters filled with endless mockery slowly emerged on the gate.

[Your balance is insufficient. Please continue to top up to unlock more surprises, dear~]
