Chapter 671: Forced Trading

Han Li heard this, and just smiled slightly, without saying much. He knew that his Senior Brother Lü beside him would definitely say something for him.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man surnamed Lü did not wait for Marquis Nan Long to say anything else, and took the initiative to introduce Han Li.

"Marquis, this is Han Li, Junior Brother who just joined our Falling Cloud Sect, and he just condensed a Nascent Soul not long ago. The girl beside him is his concubine. Han Junior Brother, the Marquis and my Master were old friends. You should come and get to know him."

"I have seen Marquis Nan Long!" Han Li's clothes fluttered, and he cupped his hands with both hands, appearing calm and composed.

"Han Li? This name sounds very unfamiliar. It seems Fellow Daoist Han is indeed a newly advanced Nascent Soul cultivator. I don't know what your divine abilities are like, how about I test them?" Marquis Nan Long actually said this in the beast carriage in a casual manner.

"Ah? Han Junior Brother just condensed a Nascent Soul a few years ago, how could he be the opponent of Fellow Daoist Nan Long. Fellow Daoist is already a mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator." Lü Luo's originally smiling face changed, and he felt bitter in his heart.

This old monster, although his temperament is strange, why would he suddenly think of testing Han Junior Brother's divine abilities? Looking at it, it doesn't look like they knew each other before!

"Rest assured. This Marquis will not rely on cultivation to bully the small, just compare spiritual sense. Just now Fellow Daoist Han's spiritual sense was not weak, it doesn't look like a cultivator who just condensed a Nascent Soul, and I am just seeing hunting and feeling happy."

Following Marquis Nan Long's words, the golden light on the beast carriage flashed and dimmed, revealing three figures sitting together in the middle of the huge beast carriage.

One man and two women!

The man was in purple brocade robes, wearing a jade high crown, with a long beard reaching his chest, sitting between the two women; the women were in snow-white palace dresses, beautiful as flowers, half-leaning in the man's arms.

The long-bearded man was naturally Marquis Nan Long, and the two women beside him. Ten-to-nine were concubines, and although their cultivation was only around the Foundation Establishment stage, they were all graceful and charming.

"Seeing Marquis Nan Long!" Lü Luo's originally smiling face changed, and he felt bitter in his heart.

"Hehe! Fellow Daoist Lü, why are you in such a hurry. Perhaps Fellow Daoist Han himself is willing to try." Marquis Nan Long chuckled coldly, not in a hurry, staring at Han Li with cold light flashing in his narrow eyes.

"Moreover, if Fellow Daoist Han really refuses my kindness. If I remember correctly, we are already within a thousand miles of Zhentian City, so it seems that the regulation of forced trading can be applied."

"Forced trading? What does the Marquis mean by this?" Lü Luo's expression changed, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Nothing. I see that this girl Mu and Fellow Daoist Han are so intimate, they should be Fellow Daoist Han's beloved, right? It just so happens that I also have two beloved concubines here, but I am a bit tired of them. How about exchanging them for this girl Mu of Fellow Daoist Han. My two beloved concubines, both in appearance and cultivation, are not inferior to this girl Mu. It clearly meets the conditions for forced trading. If Fellow Daoist Han is unwilling to trade, then he will have to compare spiritual sense with me. If he wins, not only can he keep his concubine, but my concubines will also belong to Fellow Daoist." Marquis Nan Long swept his cold eyes toward Mu Mu Peiling, and said expressionlessly.

The two concubines in his arms changed their expressions slightly, but immediately returned to normal.

Lü Luo heard this and was filled with shock and anger, unable to say anything for a moment.

Han Li's concubine, Mu Mu Peiling, turned bloodless in an instant.

"Forced trading! Senior Brother Lü, can you explain it in detail?" Han Li frowned, then asked calmly.

For him, this Marquis Nan Long was just a mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator. With Han Li's current divine abilities, he didn't have much fear.

"Actually, it's nothing. Forced trading is just a regulation specifically set by the host force for Nascent Soul stage cultivators."

"Junior Brother, you should know that once a cultivator reaches the Nascent Soul realm, no force is willing to easily offend them. The host force of the trading conference is no exception. But such a large trading conference will definitely have some disputes or conflicts in trading. If it were cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, the host force could forcibly suppress them. But when conflicts occur between Nascent Soul stage cultivators, the host force is not willing to easily get involved in the trouble. That's why there are some special regulations. Let Nascent Soul cultivators solve the disputes themselves. Forced trading is one of the least used ones."

"Specifically, within a thousand miles of the host before and after the trading conference, between Nascent Soul stage cultivators, if one party uses something with a value clearly higher than the other party's to exchange for what they need, and the other party refuses, this regulation can be used. Both sides can solve the dispute by their own cultivation and divine abilities. However, the application of this regulation is extremely harsh. And the party initiating the forced trading, even if they win, is only conducting a trade, and cannot take any advantage. But if they lose, the items brought for trading will be given to the challenged party for free. And this kind of challenge can cause serious injury to the other party, but cannot harm their life. Otherwise, the host force will mobilize all their experts to hunt down the murderer. However, it is extremely difficult for Nascent Soul stage cultivators to kill each other in a one-on-one fight. And unless the other party truly has something you must obtain, and the other party's cultivation is clearly lower than yours, otherwise no one will do this kind of stupid thing that has no benefits and instead provokes enemies." Lü Luo explained to Han Li one by one, but his expression was truly not very good.

Trading concubines is indeed a saying for Nascent Soul stage cultivators. In some demonic path evil sects, it is even quite popular.

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, all the conditions initiated by the other party were met. Even if the law-enforcement cultivators of the Nine Nations Alliance were called, it would be of no use.

However, fortunately, Han Li should not have any life-threatening danger, but being seriously injured for no reason before the trading conference starts is truly a helpless thing.

As for Mu Mu Peiling, in his eyes, it doesn't count as anything at all. Even if she is truly exchanged by the other party, Han Li will also get two charming beauties, which doesn't count as any loss.

Han Li and Mu Mu Peiling heard Lü Luo's words clearly. Han Li's expression was not chaotic, but Mu Mu Peiling was full of regret in her heart.

If she had known that there was such a regulation at the trading conference, she would not have begged Han Li to come here no matter what.

Although she didn't quite understand this Marquis Nan Long, just seeing the other party's style and attitude toward concubines, she knew that it was impossible to maintain her virginity like when she was by Han Li's side, and she might even be treated like goods and given to others at will.

Thinking of this possibility, Mu Mu Peiling bit her teeth, and a hint of crimson flashed on her pale face.

For her "Young Master" to defeat the other party, this woman truly could not hold much hope.

"Why? Is Fellow Daoist Han planning to agree to trade with me, or compare spiritual sense before trading?" Marquis Nan Long sat in the beast carriage without moving, asking step by step.

For a time, the surroundings were silent. Not only were Lü Luo and Mu Mu Peiling somewhat nervous looking at Han Li, but the two concubines beside Marquis Nan Long also looked at this young-looking Nascent Soul cultivator with curious eyes.

Han Li stroked his chin and suddenly laughed.

"Comparing spiritual sense is nothing. I just condensed a Nascent Soul not long ago, and I just want to try how much my spiritual sense is compared to other Nascent Soul cultivators. However, if I luckily win, I don't want the concubines beside the Marquis. I just want to know the real reason why the Marquis must compare spiritual sense. The Marquis must not say that you just don't like me, or that you really took a fancy to my concubine!" Han Li said calmly, appearing not to have the slightest worry.

Hearing this, a hint of inexplicable expression flashed in Marquis Nan Long's eyes, and others were inexplicably confused.

"Good. This Marquis agrees." Marquis Nan Long was silent for a while, then replied slowly, his majestic face filled with a solemn look.

"Young Master..." Mu Mu Peiling saw Han Li really agree to the challenge and could not help but call out, her beautiful face full of complex expressions.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a competition." Han Li waved his hand and said:

"Junior Brother must be careful. If it doesn't work, admit defeat immediately. Senior Brother will immediately take action to stop it." Lü Luo sighed and instructed.

Han Li nodded and stopped speaking.

At this time, Marquis Nan Long in the beast carriage had already pushed away the concubines in his arms, flicked his sleeves, and floated into the high air out of thin air. Han Li's body flashed with green light, and he also transformed into a streak of green rainbow and flew up.

Although according to the forced trading regulation, it is best to have the Nine Nations Alliance law-enforcement cultivators present, but now both sides tacitly did not mention this matter, so it was considered as such.

"Although I don't know why you must test my spiritual sense, Marquis. But clearly, your intention is not shallow. In my opinion, only if your spiritual sense is stronger or about the same as mine can you do this. If it weren't for the fact that your spiritual sense swept over me just now and made me feel that your spiritual sense is not weak, I really wouldn't have lowered my status to compare spiritual sense with you. However, looking at it, Fellow Daoist Han doesn't have much hope. The difference in strength between the spiritual sense of the early and mid-Nascent Soul stages is not a small one." Marquis Nan Long said coldly, not politely.
