Chapter 215 - 217: The Armor Form of the Reincarnation Pearl
As Mu Can spent more time with Wang Cai, the Artifact Spirit of the Reincarnation Pearl, he gained a deeper understanding of the dog’s character.
This is a greedy, shameless and incredibly cunning and crafty dog, especially its attitude of not stirring without promise of gain, which makes Mu Can’s teeth itch with annoyance.
"Just state your terms, Brother Wang Cai," Mu Can said, warily eyeing Wang Cai, afraid of being tricked by the dog.
"If you agree to my terms, not just helping you out this time, but also in the future, I’ll offer you a fifty percent discount. How about that?"
Wang Cai continued to tempt Mu Can; if it still had a physical form, Mu Can would have seen a large black dog, twice the size of a normal one, excitedly wagging its tail.
"First, tell me the terms. If I can’t do it, I can’t agree to them."
Damn it, you sly dog, you must be plotting some scheme to trap me. If you don’t state your terms, there’s no way I can agree, Mu Can thought to himself, resolutely deciding not to be duped by Wang Cai.
"Don’t worry, you can definitely do it. It’s just a trifle for you," said Wang Cai, pretending to be a great expert. It had no idea of its position in Mu Can’s heart—if it could read minds, it certainly wouldn’t be acting this way now.
"That won’t do. It’s okay to set terms, but if that’s the case, the agreed-upon reward for this time has to be halved. Otherwise, I wouldn’t stipulate any conditions."
Mu Can wasn’t foolish. When dealing with Wang Cai, the benefits he could secure were the only true benefits. Rather than haggling with the dog, it was better to secure the gains first.
To Mu Can’s surprise, Wang Cai readily agreed to his request. It was the first time he’d seen Wang Cai so generous, and he felt a bit unaccustomed to it.
