What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 1290

[Run or not — Ye Yu had truly agonized over that.]

[In the end, he chose to stay.]

[The reason was simple. Leaving aside whether he could really slip past Little Red and Tao Hua’s probing,]

[even if he got out of the House of the Yokai God, it wouldn’t necessarily be safe!]

[How fast can a True God move?]

[As long as Tao Hua, a cultivator of the Divine Lord realm, wished it, finding him would only be a matter of time.]

[If that’s the case, what’s the point of running?]

[Better to face danger head-on than shy away from it!]

[So Ye Yu stayed, and said with great confidence, “I know Poison Madam deals in information and fine food. I wonder how many divine stones this bear yokai would fetch in your hands?”]

[Tao Hua’s eyes flowed with expression; she quickly understood what Ye Yu meant.]

[“You want to buy your own life?”]

[Ye Yu nodded.]

[Tao Hua snapped her fingers.]

[In an instant, a table and two chairs appeared, and on the tabletop sat an abacus that looked very old.]

[Tao Hua sat down, a smile returning to her face.]

[That signified Ye Yu’s status had shifted from “ingredient” to “guest.”]

[“Allow me to do the math for my distinguished guest. A yokai god of the True God realm — the cultivation is a touch low, but the bones are excellent and the hide is tough.”]

[“Plus you just swallowed a Dragon-Howl Dao Pill; the medicinal power is coursing through you.”]

[“Tsk, tsk. If we stack all these add-ons together—”]

[“At the very least it comes to this.”]

[Tao Hua held up five fingers.]

[Ye Yu ventured, “Five thousand divine stones?”]

[Tao Hua shook her head. “Five hundred thousand divine stones, kid. You really know nothing about the market for yokai materials. No — to be precise, you’ve completely underestimated your own value.”]

[Ye Yu was genuinely surprised.]

[Divine stones were no small matter. Just a few days ago he’d been scratching his head over three hundred stones a year; who would have thought he himself would now be worth five hundred thousand?]

[It was, indeed, an astronomical figure!]

[Tao Hua added, “Oh, and I forgot to tell you. I don’t take divine stones here. You can pay with techniques, pills, information, and the like of equal value.”]

[“But I still do the appraisal.”]

[“Don’t worry, though — this isn’t a black shop. I do steady, long-term business, not the gouging you see outside.”]

[Ye Yu wasn’t particularly surprised.]

[Back in the bath chamber, he had already considered this.]

[An information broker that had existed for so long would certainly know that resources are what matter most.]

[So Ye Yu had prepared capital for this trade in advance!]

[He drew a demonic-race body-forging technique from his storage ring and tossed it in front of Tao Hua.]

[He’d added some personal notes and improvements.]

[Not many, but enough to raise the technique by two full tiers!]

[Tao Hua was yokai, true, but after doing business this long her eye was sharp.]

[After flipping a few pages back and forth, she had already judged the value.]

[“Good stuff. Worth three hundred thousand divine stones. Where are the remaining two hundred thousand?”]

[At that, Ye Yu tossed out another technique.]

[These were demonic body-forging methods he had obtained in Tongtian Pavilion.]
