Chapter 243: The Unobjectionable Profligate

The front and back courtyards were full of Star Origin Stones.

There were nearly a hundred, large and small, and by weight, they totaled tens of thousands of pounds.

One Spirit Crystal per pound.

These Star Origin Stones were worth tens of thousands of Spirit Crystals.

All were waste stones, not a trace of Star Origin in them.

Robbery wasn't this ruthless.

The owner of this shop must have had a black heart.

"May I ask if anyone has ever extracted Star Origin from your shop's stones?" Chu Ning asked curiously.

"Of course, if we hadn't, our shop wouldn't have been able to remain open for so long, right?" the young man said with a smile. Chu Ning continued, "May I ask when the last time Star Origin was extracted?"

Silence.

The young man was silent for a while, then awkwardly replied, "About twenty-three years ago."

Chu Ning's mouth twitched. It took twenty-three years to find Star Origin; one had to be quite the fool to come here to buy Star Origin Stones.
