~9 min read 1,693 words

"Fourth Master, I don't know why you came here..."

Inside the Ancient Dragon Pavilion, Li Sheng personally poured tea for Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang took a light sip; it was top-grade Silver Hao, one catty worth twenty taels of silver.

Putting down the teacup, he opened his mouth softly: "It's not a big deal, I have always been more interested in antiques, so I came to take a look; don't worry, if I take a fancy to anything, just sell it to me at the market price."

"Fourth Master, what are you saying? The revenue of this Ancient Dragon Pavilion has fifty percent that is yours! The person who sent the letter yesterday already said that Fourth Master, you like antiques, especially these bronze utensils from the Ancient Yu Kingdom.

Therefore, the little one has already prepared them for Fourth Master, and overnight transferred all the bronze utensils of the Ancient Yu Kingdom from various places.

Right now they are next door, Fourth Master, would you like to take a look for the little one?" Li Sheng laughed.

The person who sent the letter yesterday solemnly told him all of Qin Jiang's preferences; besides being obsessed with practicing martial arts and liking women, it was these antiques that could make him happy.

It was just that he had only heard that Qin Jiang had become a Secret Martial Artist, and at this time he should be familiarizing himself with mastering his own power.

If he had known Qin Jiang would come so quickly, he would have been waiting at the door! "Good! Let's go see!" Qin Jiang felt comfortable; he didn't expect that they had already been prepared; the Long Family was worthy of being one of the three great prominent families! The two arrived next door; dozens of bronze utensils were spotless, neatly arranged in five rows.

Qin Jiang's eyes brightened, and he walked quickly to the bronze utensils, directly reaching out.

Li Sheng behind him widened his eyes; why didn't Fourth Master wear gloves? This was the most basic common sense.

However, soon he discovered that this Fourth Master in front of him not only didn't wear gloves, but also looked extremely fast!

Especially the gaps between his palms and fingers even vaguely presented a distortion! Hiss~ Worthy of being Fourth Master! He thought this must be a technique that only Secret Martial Artist levels could master. Thinking of this, he sighed in his heart; he had been trapped in the Grandmaster realm for more than ten years, and in this life, there was no hope of reaching the Secret Martial realm; I'm afraid he would never be able to master this kind of technique in this life.

A moment later, Qin Jiang's palm was taken away from the last bronze utensil.

【Potential Points: 520.1】

It increased by about eighty Potential Points, which was already quite good.

After all, although there were many of these bronze utensils, the ones that truly contained Potential Points were actually only a dozen or so.

Looking at a small bronze tripod among them, he asked: "Where did this bronze tripod come from?"

This bronze tripod contained many Potential Points, as many as nearly thirty; he was very curious, where did this come from.

Li Sheng looked at the bronze tripod, almost without thinking, directly opening his mouth: "This is the Nightmare Beast Pattern Bronze Tripod, one of the treasures of our Ancient Dragon Pavilion.

A few years ago, about seven or eight years ago, a farmer sent it; at that time, it cost less than two hundred taels. If Fourth Master likes it, I will have someone send it to the Cloud Crane Courtyard for you."

He remembered it very clearly, because in the Ancient Yu Kingdom period, the status of the tripod was extremely high.

Usually, only sacrifices at the level of Ancient Yu Kingdom princes and nobles had the qualifications to use it; although this tripod was a bit small, it should be a secondary tripod, but it was still worth a fortune.

If it were someone else who wanted to buy it, at least five thousand taels of silver would have to be paid before he would consider it!

Qin Jiang shook his head upon hearing this, "No need, you help me find that farmer, investigate where this bronze tripod came from, and tell me when there is news."

Perhaps because sacrifices were prevalent in the Ancient Yu Kingdom period, the antiques of that period generally contained relatively more Potential Points.

And the origin of this bronze tripod might be a tomb group of the Ancient Yu Kingdom period.

After all, if the farmer's ancestors had passed down bronze utensils, I'm afraid they would have been sold for money long ago, and wouldn't have waited until now.

"Alright Fourth Master, but the little one will say one thing first; actually, we investigated back then, but we didn't find anything."

Speaking of this, Li Sheng straightened his chest slightly, "However, you can rest assured, that time we didn't investigate too carefully, this time we will definitely investigate thoroughly." No help for it, although the Ancient Dragon Pavilion was the antique leader of Ning'an County, that investigation had already spent about a thousand taels or so.

Even the Ancient Dragon Pavilion couldn't invest too much for something that didn't know if it existed.

Qin Jiang nodded, taking a stack of silver notes from his bosom; this was sent by Long Ye last night.

"This is twenty thousand taels, all expenses will be deducted from here; besides this, you help me collect all the antiques and old items in the city, don't let go of the folk ones either, collect as many as there are, and if the money is not enough, come to me again."

"Twenty... twenty thousand taels?!"

Li Sheng's voice trembled somewhat; this was twenty thousand taels! It was almost catching up to the tax revenue of the East Market for half a year! Hiss~ It seemed that the rumor was true, Fourth Master was really a scion of a noble family from the Prefecture City! Thinking of this, he put away the silver notes, "Fourth Master, you can rest assured! The little one will watch the whole process!"

"Mm, do your best, take me to see other antiques."

After coming out of the Ancient Dragon Pavilion, Qin Jiang turned around in various places in the city, looting more than a hundred Potential Points, and the total amount reached 687.6.

When he returned to the Cloud Crane Courtyard, there was already someone waiting in the pavilion in the courtyard; it was Long Qihan, who exchanged blows with him the day before yesterday.

"Fourth Uncle, you are back." Long Qihan saw Qin Jiang return and stood up to welcome him.

It was just that his eyes carried shock and puzzlement; not wearing Fire-Evading Clothes? And his hair didn't have the slightest green color! Could it be that in just one night, he had already fully mastered the power of green fire?! Yesterday he had already heard that Qin Jiang had completed green fire body refining without wearing Fire-Evading Clothes, and it was green fire far exceeding ordinary green fire.

According to what Third Uncle said, the Qin Jiang who had just broken through to the Secret Martial Artist realm even had strength comparable to a fifth-stage Secret Martial Artist!

This had already made him doubt whether he was a mediocre person!

But looking at it now, what kind of mediocre person was he, he was simply a piece of trash! Qin Jiang waved his hand with a smile, "Brother Long, no need to be so polite, sit."

Long Qihan nodded dumbly and sat back down.

"Brother Long, what is the matter with you coming here?" Qin Jiang asked with a smile.

According to the cognition of the two senior brothers, he should still be mastering the power of green fire at this time.

If it weren't for something important, he shouldn't disturb himself at this time.

Could it be that his going to the Ancient Dragon Pavilion was discovered?

"There is indeed one thing; right now it is already August, and there is still more than a month until the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Fourth Uncle should make some preparations," Long Qihan said.

Qin Jiang was stunned, somewhat puzzled, "What preparations? What is the matter on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month?"

Long Qihan slapped his forehead upon hearing this; just now he was focused on being shocked and forgot about this. Immediately, he explained: "Fourth Uncle might not know, every three years in the Copper Bell Sect, there will be a True Disciple Ranking Tournament.

And the time is set on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. This Ranking Tournament not only represents strength, but also has many rewards, especially the first place, which can not only obtain the title of Green Fire Lord, but also get a bottle of extremely rare Golden Light Spirit Liquid for body refining!

If Fourth Uncle can get it, perhaps it can directly push your physical body to the level comparable to Third Uncle!"

Third Uncle was a sixth-stage peak Secret Martial Artist who had perfected the Green Fire Copper Furnace Art.

If Qin Jiang could possess a physical body comparable to Third Uncle when he was a first-stage Secret Martial Artist, it was simply unimaginable how strong Qin Jiang would be when he reached the sixth-stage Secret Martial Artist! I'm afraid that even facing a seventh-stage Secret Martial Artist, he would be able to escape!

The gap in strength between a sixth-stage Secret Martial Artist and a seventh-stage Secret Martial Artist was extremely large!

Practicing high-level Secret Martial Arts, the gap with ordinary Secret Martial Artists was almost like a chasm, no less than the gap between Secret Martial Artists and True Martial Artists! Being able to have the power to escape was already very powerful! At the very least, he hadn't heard of any ordinary Secret Martial Artist who could escape from the hands of a high-level Secret Martial Artist.
