Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 725

Chapter 725: Chapter 728 Jia Bujia Weapon Shop [First Update]

"This..." The shop owner was stunned, not expecting Wu Tian to say such a thing. After a moment’s hesitation, he sighed. "No, it’s actually shrimp ink, refined from the blood of high-grade shrimp. You... 15 Gold Coins will be fine."

"Lucky for you that you chose to tell the truth," Wu Tian said with a chuckle, holding the little one in his arms.

Since that was the case, Wu Tian naturally couldn’t take the ink. He had to find something of higher quality.

He took a step, looking around the shop to see what other rare inks might be available.

Suddenly, Wu Tian felt a strange resonance from the Investiture of the Gods.

"Name: Jia Fatty!"

"Cultivation: Foundation Establishment, Third Rank."

"Suitable Weapon: Jia Bujia Weapon Shop."

"Life Story: Mother died at birth, father died at age three..."

Wu Tian was somewhat surprised. This man is actually a candidate for the Investiture of the Gods! A future member of the Heavenly Court I plan to establish. The Heavenly Court would need its powerful Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, but it would also need other roles filled.

"Daddy, I want that ink," the little one called out in her sweet, childish voice, pointing to a bottle in the shop. Her innocent, fair, and smooth little face was full of excitement.

Wu Tian looked closer and saw a beautiful golden liquid inside a small glass bottle. Under the gaze of the silver mark on his forehead—the Heavenly Eye—he could see the image of a nine-headed lion within the golden fluid.

This must be ink refined from the blood of a nine-headed lion.

The nine-headed lion was not of the Divine Beast lineage. However, among the Beast Clan creatures ranked below Divine Beasts, it was exceptionally rare.

Wu Tian smiled. "I’ll take it."

The shop owner, Jia Fatty, glanced at the bottle of nine-headed lion ink, his brow furrowing slightly, but he still replied, "Respected customer, this is nine-headed lion ink. It’s valued at thirty million Gold Coins."

"No, no, no," Wu Tian said suddenly. "We won’t need to spend any money."

"No money?" The plump Jia Fatty was confused.

"That’s right, no money," Wu Tian said with a playful smile.

"Are you planning to just take it without paying?" Jia Fatty asked, his brow tightening as the implication dawned on him.

Wu Tian nodded.

Jia Fatty grew furious. How difficult is it to craft an Array Master’s ink? How hard is it to obtain the blood of a Beast Clan creature?

Especially the nine-headed lion ink! To get the blood of that nine-headed lion, Jia Fatty had gone through hell and back, nearly dying in the process.

"You will give it to me," Wu Tian stated calmly.

"Nonsense!" Jia Bujia shook his head resolutely.

Wu Tian smiled. "You were born without a mother and lost your father at the age of three."

All of his information was recorded clearly on the Investiture of the Gods.

"You... how do you know that?" Jia Bujia was stunned. When he collected his thoughts, he could only assume one thing. He must have investigated me.

But that raised another question. I have no background, no family fortune... Why would he go to the trouble of investigating me, Jia Fatty?

The little one chuckled. Daddy’s showing off again. She began to play with her fingers out of boredom. It’s fun when I get to show off, but watching someone else do it is just boring.

As long as Wu Tian could give him the confidence to keep living, pledging loyalty was no problem at all.

"Good. In that case, I bestow upon you a Supreme Treasure: the Jia Bujia Weapon Shop."

With a flick of his finger, Wu Tian transformed the entire store.

Suddenly, it was no longer an ink shop but a weapon emporium. The interior was now filled with fascinating armaments, mostly swords, but other strange and wondrous items as well. This Jia Bujia Weapon Shop was an artifact from the world of the Heavenly Scar. In that world, an army of gods and cultivators had once assaulted the Immortal Emperor Realm, and the original owner of the Jia Bujia shop had been among them.

"These are..." Jia Fatty’s eyes lit up as he gazed upon the weapons.

He fell in love with the place at first sight. To do business that you love... no matter how tiring the work, your heart would feel fulfilled.

"Thank you, Sect Leader! From now on, I will serve you with utmost devotion until my dying day!" Jia Fatty exclaimed, his eyes gleaming with excitement as he immediately kowtowed to Wu Tian.

From his very first glance, he felt a deep connection to this weapon shop. Each weapon, to a greater or lesser degree, was imbued with Spiritual Energy. A shop like this couldn’t possibly fail to prosper.

Meanwhile, Wu Tian took the nine-headed lion ink, now free of charge.

Seeing her dad have all the fun showing off, the little one in his arms grew a bit pouty. She decided to show off a little herself. "My dad and I said from the start that you would give us the ink for free, didn’t we? Tell us, were we right or not?"

Jia Bujia was taken aback. I don’t remember the child saying anything.

But as a savvy merchant, he knew better than to point that out. He just nodded eagerly. "Yes, yes, of course! The Sect Leader and the little Sect Leader have divine foresight! This humble one is thoroughly impressed."

"Hmm." The little one nodded, satisfied.

At that moment, the street outside suddenly erupted into a noisy commotion, as if something major had happened.
