Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1848 - 1845: Got Ripped Off

"Anything goes?" Xu Wendong slightly raised his eyebrows, a hint of probing flashed in his eyes as he asked cautiously.

He knew very well that the items in the Netherworld Pavilion were expensive, and even a random one could possibly bankrupt him.

"Of course, after all, the Lin Family covers the expenses." Lin Yin’s smile bloomed like a flower, her eyebrows curved, resembling flowers blossoming in the spring sun.

For her, there was no need to pay out of her own pocket, so she naturally spent extravagantly. It was the Lin Family that was wealthy, not her, so why be stingy?

"I see," Xu Wendong’s lips twitched slightly, his heart secretly murmuring. He thought Lin Yin was a hidden wealthy woman, but it turned out she was spending someone else’s money.

"Look, does this suit you?" Lin Yin moved gracefully to a counter, her slender fingers elegantly pointing to a sword inside.

The sword lay quietly in a specially made brocade box, exuding a mysterious aura.

At this moment, a maid dressed in a uniform walked briskly over with light steps.

She bowed slightly, with a professional smile on her face, and began to introduce it in detail: "This is a Second Grade Profound Yin Flowing Light Sword, made from the Netherworld Mountain Flowing Light Stone."

"The Netherworld Mountain Flowing Light Stone was formed in the depths of the Netherworld Mountain after being nourished by thousands of years of Yin energy, making it extremely rare."

"The sword contains rich Yin energy, which can enhance the user’s power by ten percent."

Upon hearing the introduction, the anticipation on Xu Wendong’s face instantly dissipated, and he said with lackluster interest, "Only ten percent?" His tone was full of disappointment, as if in his eyes, the ten percent enhancement wasn’t worth mentioning.

The maid was startled by his words, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.

In her view, a ten percent enhancement was already quite considerable.

In the Netherworld, while Magical Treasures could enhance a user’s power, the degree of enhancement was generally limited. Achieving ten percent was already an extremely excellent standard.

Moreover, this was a Second Grade Treasure Sword, with special material, indestructible. Usually, only treasures of Fourth Grade and above could increase the enhancement to thirty percent or more.

"Ten percent is not bad. Our Lin Family’s ancestral hall enshrines a sword of an ancestor, which is a Third Grade treasure, and even that enhances power by only ten percent." Lin Yin’s eyes sparkled with excitement as if she saw a rare treasure.

She said this while inquiring about the price, learning that this sword was priced at 70,000 Nether Crystals.

"What? This thing costs 70,000?" Xu Wendong’s face was full of shock.

His mouth twitched fiercely, and he pondered secretly, thinking that artifact refining must be a highly profitable business.

Is it really that hard to craft a Second Grade treasure sword?

He was confident that, given the right materials, he too could craft such a sword.

"Young Master Lin, this is already very cheap." The maid nearly cried, her voice carried a hint of grievance.

In her heart, getting a Second Grade treasure sword for 70,000 Nether Crystals was ridiculously low-priced, so low that it might attract a frenzy outside.

"You, keep quiet," Lin Yin said with a slight frown, a hint of complaint, before turning to the staff nearby and saying, "Our Lin Family will take this sword."

Xu Wendong’s face was full of helplessness, secretly lamenting.

He painstakingly painted a Level 2 Netherworld Talisman that sold for only 9,000 Nether Crystals, while this Second Grade treasure sword cost several times his hard earnings.

This disparity was simply heart-wrenching. He secretly resolved in his heart to switch to artifact refining instead of painting Netherworld Talismans.

As a woman, once Lin Yin’s desire to shop was ignited, it was like an unstoppable tide.

Moreover, this shopping excursion was personally endorsed by Lin Zhen Tian, whose intention was to cultivate Xu Wendong well, thus the budget was significantly increased.

Within an hour, Lin Yin had already purchased three or four treasures, spending a total of 300,000 Nether Crystals.

This number caused a sting in Xu Wendong’s heart.

He knew that it would take him nearly 40 Level 2 Netherworld Talismans to earn back such an amount.

If all that money was given to him, how wonderful would that be?

Not long after, Lin Yin walked gracefully to another display platform.

Her eyes lit up instantly, like stars twinkling in the night sky, and she immediately said, "I’ll take the Netherworld Talisman inside here."

Curious, Xu Wendong walked over to look, and was suddenly dumbfounded.

Wasn’t this the Three Breath Immobilization Talisman he had personally painted?

His mouth twitched fiercely, his face full of astonishment as he said, "Damn, this thing costs 30,000 per piece?" A strong feeling of being scammed surged in his heart, this pricing was simply ridiculous.

He still remembered, Liu Chun’er initially offered a price of only 9,000.

Wasn’t this clearly a case of buying low and selling high? He secretly complained in his heart, truly, beautiful women were adept at deception.

"Elder, I don’t need this thing, there’s no need to buy it," Xu Wendong hurriedly reached out, trying to stop Lin Yin.

Lin Yin frowned slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes, not understanding why Xu Wendong was suddenly so resistant.

"Elder Lin, I’m afraid Young Master Lin Mo really doesn’t need this item." At this moment, Liu Chun’er from the Netherworld Pavilion’s branch, dressed in an enchanting red dress like a blooming rose, walked out smiling.

Her dress had a high slit, all the way to her thighs, revealing glimpses of her fair, jade-like legs with every step, full of temptation.

Add to that her curvaceous, voluptuous figure, and her appearance immediately captured the attention of men from all factions on the second floor, many of whom were left staring as if under an immobilization spell.

Liu Chun’er swayed her hips as she walked up to Xu Wendong, her charming eyes laced with a hint of teasing.

Xu Wendong was shocked, secretly wondering, "Did this woman recognize me?"

Last time he sold the Three Breath Immobilization Talisman, he had deliberately disguised himself, logically, he shouldn’t have been recognized.

But Liu Chun’er’s expression suggested she saw through everything.

"Why is it unnecessary?" Lin Yin’s eyes flashed with a hint of hostility as she sized up Liu Chun’er.

In her view, this woman was dressed so alluringly, probably intentionally trying to seduce Xu Wendong.

"I heard that Young Master Lin Mo is a Nether Talisman Master, and he can draw Netherworld Talismans himself, so this item is of little use to him." Liu Chun’er’s lips curved upwards into a confident smile. She continued, "We, at the Netherworld Pavilion, conduct business conscientiously, we don’t just earn any kind of money."

Upon hearing this, many people nearby nodded in agreement, instantly gaining a better impression of the Netherworld Pavilion.

While Xu Wendong was immersed in silence, pondering how to handle the situation, Liu Chun’er smiled slightly, her smile as warm as the spring sun but with a hint of mystery, and said, "Young Master Lin Mo, may I have a word with you?"

"Of course," Xu Wendong nodded, turned to Lin Yin indicating for her to wait a moment, and then followed Liu Chun’er to a private room on the second floor.

Entering the private room, Xu Wendong immediately felt something was off.
