After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chapter 259 Clues_2



...

The next day, just after the morning classes had ended, Chen Xing packed up his things and was getting ready to leave.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

"Hello, Chen. I'm a fellow student."

Chen Xing felt that the person behind him looked somewhat familiar, probably a classmate, but he did not know his name.

"My name is Liu Qing. I heard that you are collecting the Titan's Heart."

Chen Xing realized, recalling the information he had left on the school forum, which operated on a real-name basis.

Chen Xing asked, "Liu, are you looking for me because you have clues about the Titan's Heart?"

Liu Qing said, "Yes, as you know, my family does business with other species. The Titan's Heart is a rarity, and I happen to know a seller in the Exotic Region who possesses one. However, the seller will only do a trade in person, by bartering goods."

Chen Xing pondered, suddenly remembering the matter that Director Huang mentioned the day before.

Out of caution, Chen Xing confirmed, "Is it really the Titan's Heart that I need? Not just something with the same name?"

The Titan's Heart is not a Secret Treasure, of course, but its value is no less than that of a common Secret Treasure.

"The other party has taken pictures, you can see if it's the item you need." Liu Qing took out a photo.
Your journey continues at empire

In the photo, the object captured was a massive, dark brown, egg-shaped boulder.

It was huge, as big as a building, and placed within a deep pit.

From the description and appearance in the photo, it was indeed the thing he needed.

Truly, the school forum was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, with extensive connections.

"Do you know what the other party wants to trade for?" Chen Xing asked.

Liu Qing said, "This Titan's Heart is a treasured item they've been nurturing, originally hoping it would hatch for them to contract and train as a Beast Taming creature. But their family has been waiting for three hundred years without any signs of hatching. Now, with instability in various areas, they want to sell the Titan's Heart for a good price."

Chen Xing pondered, sell for a good price...

If the Titan's Heart could hatch, a Titan would definitely be a powerful species. But the prerequisite was that it could hatch, which was not very useful for individuals. Only for families like his, with inherited power from generation to generation, could they realize its greatest value.

With the current upheaval, if the Titan's Heart could not hatch, it would not only take up space but also be completely useless within the family, even less useful than an outhouse.

Nevertheless, Chen Xing was determined to obtain the Titan's Heart.

"So what do you need, Liu?" Chen Xing changed the subject, inquiring about Liu Qing's interests.

Liu Qing certainly wouldn't tell him such important information for nothing.

Since he had told him, it was certain that he wanted something in return.

Liu Qing smiled slightly, "I simply want to make friends with you. Besides, the family selling the Titan's Heart also does business with the Liú Family. If I can facilitate the deal, it would be a win-win-win situation."

"I've already inquired in advance, the other family only needs a large number of Secret Treasures, around one hundred thousand level one Secret Treasures, or equivalent high-quality Secret Treasures should be able to make the deal."

One hundred thousand level one Secret Treasures...

The cheapest Secret Treasure would be worth at least fifty thousand Great Xia Currency each, amounting to nearly fifty billion in total.

Of course, the value of currency cannot be simply calculated this way—it depends on various complex factors!

Such as the national industrial production capacity, export capacity, market confidence, government policies...

But for Great Xia, the most important aspect is undoubtedly their production of various electronic products.

For the Exotic Region, in some areas, this is tantamount to overwhelming superiority and is highly acclaimed.

So, while other places use Spirit Gold for transactions, within Great Xia, you can directly purchase Secret Treasures with Great Xia Currency, which is an inconceivable practice in many of the Giant Cities.

But there are also restrictions on purchasing Secret Treasures directly with Great Xia Currency for individuals. Small-scale purchases by a single person won't attract attention, but if a private party or a domestic power engages in mass acquisitions of Secret Treasures at a low market price, it would inevitably touch a nerve with Great Xia officials.

This is strictly forbidden!

So if one were to purchase one hundred thousand secret treasures, the actual cost in Great Xia Currency would be more than five billion.

However, coincidentally, Chen Xing did indeed have secret treasures worth five billion...

The storage ring of the masked intruder that he killed yesterday contained some secret treasures; after Chen Xing calculated their total value, it came to around two hundred million.

But the bulk of it was in Meng Quan's Storage Ornament, piled up like mountains of secret treasures. Chen Xing had roughly estimated their total value, and aside from those two ninth-grade secret treasures, the remaining ones were worth at least six billion.

It can be said that this was the accumulation of Meng Quan's years, aside from real estate, all his savings were here.

Of course, most of the resources he had accumulated were still used for the cultivation of beasts.

Chen Xing glanced at Liu Qing, his eyes flickering, and nodded as he said, "I'll find a way to gather the money first."

Hearing Chen Xing's agreement, Liu Qing was delighted, "Good, if you are short of money, you can tell me; I can lend you some."

Liu Qing seemed to realize that he might be coming off a little too enthusiastic and coughed before saying, "Gathering fifty billion should be tough for you, right? Although you've obtained a Resource Point before, its profits probably haven't been cashed out yet."

Chen Xing laughed, "Yeah, I won't be shy if I can't gather the money; let's exchange contact information first."

After Liu Qing left, Chen Xing took out his phone and sent a message to Qin Xuan: "Brother Qin, are you in Longbei City?"

Qin Xuan didn't reply from the other side, and it wasn't clear if he was in the wilderness or in Great Xia, or perhaps busy with work.

Liu Qing's sudden approach seemed a bit strange to Chen Xing.

On the one hand, there was no contact between Chen Xing and the Liu Family; on the contrary, there were conflicts.

One of his Resource Points was obtained through a contest from an elder of the Liu Family.

If the Liu Family really wanted to mend their relationship with him, they would not have stayed out of touch for so long.

Not sooner, not later, but right at this particular time.

Just yesterday, Director Huang had reminded him that the timing of Liu Qing's visit was too opportune.

Moreover, he brought with him a material he desperately needed, with hints that he wanted a face-to-face transaction.

Chen Xing suddenly thought of something.

He sent a message to Liu Qing, "As for the trade, is the other party coming to Jiuzhou University to trade, or is it in Longbei City?"

After a while, Liu Qing replied: "Brother Chen, the Titan's Heart is not easy to transport, and it can't be placed into a storage ring, so we can only go to their city for a live trade."

His words had a basis.

Right at that moment, Qin Xuan's message came through.

"Brother Chen, what's up? I've just returned to Longbei City."

Chen Xing pondered for a moment, organized his words, then replied to Qin Xuan: "Brother Qin, I have recently been collecting information on the Titan's Heart. Today, a classmate from the Liu Family approached me, asking me to go to another city in the Exotic Region for a transaction of the Titan's Heart. Have you heard of the Titan's Heart, Brother Qin?"

Qin Xuan quickly responded: "Don't go!"

A moment later, another message came, "I can't discuss the details right now, but the Liu Family is in big trouble right now! "

"Just today, I've arrested two Liu Family members who were stationed at a Resource Point; your school's members of the Liu Family are already under surveillance. You should not get too involved, if you need the Titan's Heart, wait until we catch all the people, then I will help you find the information.

Also, if someone asks you for help, don't help indiscriminately at this time, including harboring, lending money, assisting in transferring, and so on. Getting involved might lead to being judged as an accomplice!"

Chen Xing replied to Qin Xuan, "Brother Qin, this isn't considered leaking secret information, right?"

Qin Xuan replied promptly, "No, it's not. It's not just you who knows it, this information can be inquired about. The boss has called me to work, I'll get back to you later."

Returning to his living quarters from the classroom, because he didn't need to work part-time, Chen Xing started to get home quite early these days.

But just as he arrived outside his place, Chen Xing saw an old man dressed in a black Zhongshan suit standing at the gate of the villa, seemingly waiting for someone.

When the old man saw Chen Xing approaching, his gaze fell on him, and he didn't speak until Chen Xing pushed open the front door: "Young man, do you have a Spatial Beast Taming beast?"
