Chapter 661 - Extremely Grateful
Elder Randy was incredibly touched because everyone could see how important the crystal ball was to the elves, and no one would give up an opportunity to extort and take advantage of the elves. However, Lin Li actually gave the chance up without hesitation, and simply asked or a price reduction in the herbs.
After hearing Lin Li’s answer, Princess Elune and the other elves began to feel guilty and remorseful for the thoughts they had about Lin Li in the past. They did not expect there to be such generous human being, and felt that they had wronged him previously. Even they themselves might never be so magnanimous.
Cheyenne could not help but look at Lin Li strangely. Although he did not understand how powerful Lin Li truly was, he had contacted him way before this after all, and he was still very clear about Lin Li’s character. He didn’t believe what Lin Li had just said about seeing the elves as his friends, because he knew that Lin Li would never hesitate to take advantage of someone. He knew that Lin Li did not let go of such a opportunity simply because he and the elves had gone through difficulties together.
However, the purpose of Elder Randy had been achieved anyway, and although they still felt that they had done Lin Li a little wrong, Elder Randy had no choice but to temporarily mistreat Lin Li who was a rare kind amongst humans.
Looking at the ashamed elves, Lin Li moved towards the side calmly, giving Elder Randy the space to collect the crystal ball.
When exploring treasure vaults, most people would bring their magical equipment along. Elder Randy first smiled at Lin Li and expressed his gratitude. He then turned to face the huge crystal ball, opened his hand slowly, and pressed it against the surface of the ball.
After the crystal ball was stowed away by Elder Randy, the hall suddenly became rather empty. Although there were many advanced magic objects, they could not attract anyone’s interest or attention at all. After communicating with each other, they decided to continue onto the second floor of the tower. However, after seeing the crystal ball, everyone really could not imagine anything more valuable than the crystal ball that could be present on the second floor.
On the side of the hall, everyone found the stairs leading to the second floor. The High Elves’ wasteful behavior could no longer surprise them, because they were already used to it. The second floor felt the same, but the staircase was extremely luxurious and extravagant. They slowly made their way up.
Watching Cheyenne rejoice and collect the magical equipment, Lin Li stood still without a tinge of reluctance. Lin Li was certainly not the kind to sacrifice himself for others. The only reason he had repeatedly made concessions was because he had his own plans in mind. They were in the Central Tower of the Sky Castle, and not the Immortal King’s territory. How could the Immortal King’s collection be inferior? What was the point of competing with the others now?
