"Hey! Stop eating! You're just wasting it!" Dong Yu glared at Chu Mo.
"None of your damned business!" Chu Mo shot Dong Yu a look and said coldly, "What? You want to snatch it from me? Looking for a fight?"
With that, Chu Mo lunged at the half Snow Hedgehog, ready to take a bite.
Dong Yu's face turned crimson, partly from anger, partly from embarrassment, and a bit from feeling wronged.
As a little princess of the Dong family, she has been pampered by countless elders since childhood. She's the type of girl that's "too precious to melt in your mouth" and "too delicate to scare in your arms".
What couldn't she have if she wanted it?
Not to mention, when she and Qin Shi needed the Water of the Five Elements, didn't the Luo brothers immediately borrow a treasure from their family elders and eagerly follow them into this small world?
Now, a nobody in her eyes - though he's good-looking, much more handsome than the Luo brothers, his character's so bad, and he was so rude. For a delicate girl like her, he didn't show the slightest kindness or respect, even speaking to her harshly.
He was way out of line!
Dong Yu looked at Chu Mo and said loudly, "Stop eating... I... I will trade something with you."
"Trade?" Chu Mo raised an eyebrow, stopped eating, and glanced at Dong Yu, "This is a treasure, what do you have to trade with me?"
Looking at Dong Yu's somewhat flickering big eyes, Chu Mo sneered, "If it's junk, don't bother bringing it out. Though my realm is not great, I still have discerning eyes."
Dong Yu was taken aback, because she was actually thinking about whether she could trick this naïve country bumpkin with some minor Heavenly Realm trinket. Chu Mo's words hit too close to home, and even with her ascended state of mind, she was slightly guilty.
"How could that be? How could I, Dong Yu, do such a thing?" Dong Yu rolled her eyes at Chu Mo and, after hesitating for a while, took out five Heavenly Crystal Stones from her body and said, "Top-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones, five of them. They can buy a low-grade dharma instrument in the Heavenly Realm."
"Just this?" Chu Mo sneered inwardly: If I were to take out the pile of top-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones from the Azure Sky Asukaji, wouldn't it scare you to death?
"This is already a lot, okay? It's a Heavenly Crystal Stone!" Dong Yu thought Chu Mo didn't understand the value of Heavenly Crystal Stone, her twinkling big eyes staring at Chu Mo, "You must be from the Spirit Realm, right? You really don't know, a single mid-grade Heavenly Crystal Stone is enough to cause a bloody battle between two large clans in your Spirit Realm."
"I'm not interested. Trade something else. This is your last chance." Chu Mo was taken aback. Although he knew that Heavenly Crystal Stones were very valuable, he hadn't expected that a single mid-grade Heavenly Crystal Stone could cause a war between two large clans in the Spirit Realm.
He could tell that Dong Yu wasn't lying to him.
"Looks like I still don't know enough about this world. Perhaps... everything I've encountered in this illusionary deity realm...is too high-end..." Chu Mo thought to himself.
Dong Yu really didn't lie to him. The real world outside the Illusory Deity Realm is much more brutal than Chu Mo imagines.
Actually, if you think about the Demon Lord's various experiences back then, you'd understand.
However, even if Chu Mo knew this, he wouldn't be too concerned, because he already has thousands of top-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones!
Why would he care about Dong Yu's mere five top-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones?
Dong Yu bit her lip hesitantly, then took out a jade flute from her storage ring. The jade flute was entirely green, almost transparent, radiating a cold aura.
"This jade flute...although it can't be considered a top-grade dharma instrument, it is my cherished possession. When blown, it can produce a powerful sonic attack. All practitioners below the Spirit Refining stage cannot withstand it." Dong Yu looked sincerely at Chu Mo and said, "I can't use it anymore at my current level. Will you trade the Snow Hedgehog meat you have for this?"
Chu Mo looked at the jade flute and felt a warmth emanating from the Azure Sky Asukaji, which had been silent until now. Chu Mo knew that this must be a treasure. But his face didn't give anything away as he stared at Dong Yu: "What level is needed to control this thing?"
Dong Yu didn't expect Chu Mo to ask this, she hesitated before saying, "At least, the Golden Elixir Realm..."
"And if you're not in the Golden Elixir Realm and blow on it, what will happen?" Chu Mo's eyes were fixed on Dong Yu.
Dong Yu showed an awkward smile, "Your strength will be drained..."
"Damn it!" Chu Mo muttered to himself, almost fooled by this enchantress! Fortunately, he asked one more question. Otherwise, if he used it indiscriminately, he might have been conspired against immediately.
"I, I wasn't tricking you, I told you..." Dong Yu said weakly.
In fact, in the beginning, she really wanted to trick this hateful boy. She didn't want to harm him, just teach this rough country hick a lesson.
The jade flute was indeed a pretty good dharma instrument, but it was only good for cultivators below the Primordial Infant stage. After surpassing the Primordial Infant stage and reaching the Spirit Refining stage, you almost never need this thing.
"This thing... it isn't even worth five high-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones, right?" Chu Mo scoffed, glancing at Dong Yu, and sneered.
"How could it be? The material of this jade flute is very rare, this type of jade is not common at all, and it's even rarer to be able to make a flute from it. Even if it isn't a dharma instrument, it's worth more than five high-grade Heavenly Crystal Stones!" Dong Yu seemed a bit anxious and said, "Without infusing it with power and purely using it as a musical instrument... it's top notch!"
With that, she placed the flute to her lips and began to play softly.
Chu Mo felt a chill run down his spine. He was about to cover his ears when Dong Yu shot him a furious look, "Right now, my strength has been suppressed to the Innate Realm, even if I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't dare!"
With that, she ignored Chu Mo and began to play.
A melodious flute sound immediately followed.
Chu Mo, feeling a bit embarrassed, lowered his hand that was ready to cover his ears, listened to the sound of the flute, and was slightly stunned. He didn't expect this proud girl to have such talent in this area.
The flute sound was very pleasant to the ear. Even Chu Mo, who didn't understand music well, could feel the faint sadness and strong sense of longing in the sound.
Chu Mo couldn't help but privately grumble: you, who sits high above everyone else as a heaven's chosen lady, what do you have to be sad about?
At a very distant place, Luo Ying who was traveling on the road suddenly heard the flute sound, slightly stunned, he murmured to himself, "Is this Dong Yu's flute sound? Strange... Didn't she say she hadn't touched the flute for many years?"
From another direction, Qin Shi slightly raised her eyebrows, listened for a while, and sighed lightly: "This girl... is probably missing her mother again, isn't she?"
Farther away, Luo Ning, who was fighting with a giant snow-white wolf, heard the flute sound, and his face turned gloomy: "She's really leisurely... does she think this is a sightseeing trip?"
Roar!
While Luo Ning was distracted, the massive white wolf roared and slashed his face with its sharp claws, leaving a deep, bone-visible wound.
