Chapter 225: Sharp Weapon for Scheming People
Although it was the Nanhuang Continent, the black market was a mix of dragons and snakes. Even if the Seven Blood Eyes belonged to the top-level forces of the Nanhuang Continent, there were still many malicious intentions hidden in the dark.
Plus Xu Qing's personality was always cautious, and the things he came to this black market to do were not very clean, so he was not only more thorough in his disguise, but his aura was also hidden.
As for the Captain, as an old oil stick, he hid even deeper than Xu Qing, directly transforming into a hunchbacked old man, looking like he was sick, but not someone to be easily provoked.
Compared to the dry and thin middle-aged man Xu Qing had transformed into, this was much better.
So after walking out of the teleportation array, Xu Qing scanned the Captain. He felt that he had learned some knowledge again.
The Captain coughed hoarsely and, after scanning the Lingyou City, spoke faintly.
"This place is not bad. I also have some items to deal with. Let's finish our business and meet here." The Captain said, walking out first, his gaze scanning the few children who were looking at him with eager eyes, and chose a little boy at random.
The little boy's eyes lit up and followed him rapidly.
Xu Qing didn't choose. He had the Jin Gang Sect ancestor.
The Jin Gang Sect ancestor was clearly incomparably familiar with the black market, so Xu Qing walked toward the distance with an expressionless face. The malicious and scrutinizing gazes behind him gathered on him. As Xu Qing walked away, most of these gazes dissipated, but a few still existed.
"Master's plan is wonderful. You must have known that there are many greedy people in this black market, so you deliberately let them stare at you. In this way, after selling the things later, we can have extra gains."
"I suggest Master can slightly reveal some wealth later. In this way, as long as the degree of exposure is controlled, we can avoid attracting Golden Cores, but attract those trashy Foundation Establishments."
"Master, these hyenas are quite fat."
Seeing this, the Jin Gang Sect ancestor spoke with flattery. He felt that his sense of existence during this period was too low. On one hand, the Captain was often there, making it hard for him to show himself. On the other hand, the little shadow had been showing signs of arrogance recently.
This made the Jin Gang Sect ancestor very vigilant. He decided that in this black market, he had to deepen his role in Xu Demon's heart and couldn't give Xu Demon the impression that he was a waste.
"En."
Xu Qing's gaze scanned the shops and crowds in the surroundings. There were many pedestrians here, all hiding their identities, wearing wide robes, and some wearing masks to prevent others from probing. In this observation, for the Jin Gang Sect ancestor's words, Xu Qing didn't listen much and replied faintly.
But this simple response made the Jin Gang Sect ancestor tremble in his heart.
"When this Xu Demon only said one word to me before, it represented displeasure. Could it be... I said the wrong thing? Or does Xu Demon not want to sell it so simply? Or is he dissatisfied with me? No, I must think of a way, otherwise, if this continues, this is a sign that I will be used as cannon fodder!"
"
The strong sense of crisis made the Jin Gang Sect ancestor tremble in his heart, and he spoke rapidly.
"Master, I have also been pondering recently. If we just sell the magic treasures like this, we won't sell them for their value. I have a good idea!"
Xu Qing was about to walk into an artifact refining shop where there were not many cultivators, and hearing this, his footsteps slowed down, somewhat surprised.
"We don't do things in the dark, we don't pretend to be real, but just sell this kind of magic treasure that looks normal, but actually breaks if touched a little!"
"I've thought about it. This is our specialty. After all, the people here are very mixed, and everyone has their own thoughts. Many people buy things not for their own use, but with the intention of scheming against others. So, this magic treasure of ours is their first choice!"
"So we don't go to the shop, we go to the street stall!" The Jin Gang Sect ancestor also racked his brains and spoke rapidly. Xu Qing pondered for a while and felt it was also fine.
And things were valuable because they were rare. For those with special needs, perhaps it was also a strange item. So Xu Qing adopted the Jin Gang Sect ancestor's suggestion and, under his guidance, left this place and went to the free market of this city.
There were more cultivators there, mixed with dragons and snakes. And the Jin Gang Sect ancestor was familiar with the road, guiding Xu Qing to the management division of this place, renting a stall, and there he erected a huge wooden board.
There was no need for Xu Qing to do anything. The Jin Gang Sect ancestor manipulated the black iron skewer and wrote four big characters on it with a flourish.
Sharp Weapon for Scheming People!
Xu Qing glanced at it, raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything, sat cross-legged and waited silently, watching the people coming and going in this market, the sounds of bustling noise echoing in all directions.
After waiting for a while, most of the passers-by glanced at it, but almost no one paid attention, which made Xu Qing somewhat impatient.
"Master, don't be impatient. This matter will definitely work. I have grasp, I have confidence. You have to know that back then I went to many black markets and specifically looked for such items... This item is not common. I believe there should be quite a few people like me."
The Jin Gang Sect ancestor spoke rapidly. He didn't notice that the shadow on the side had been squinting its shadow eyes carefully from beginning to end, staring at him like a great enemy. At the same time, it was also learning rapidly. Hearing the ancestor's words, it seemed to have suddenly realized something and learned something.
"En."
Xu Qing's gaze swept over. He closed his eyes. Just like this, time passed. Amidst the Jin Gang Sect ancestor's anxiety, a stick of incense passed, and suddenly the Jin Gang Sect ancestor's eyes lit up, and Xu Qing also sensed it and opened his eyes.
I saw a tall cultivator completely shrouded in a black robe, unable to see his appearance at all, stopping in front of Xu Qing's stall, his gaze falling on the four characters on the wooden board.
"How to scheme?" A hoarse voice came from within the robe.
Xu Qing didn't say a word, threw out a jade slip, and at the same time took out a fan magic treasure, placed it on the side, and pressed one hand on it.
The black-robed person took the jade slip, checked it carefully, and was silent.
The content of the jade slip was made by the Jin Gang Sect ancestor. It comprehensively introduced the function of this fan magic treasure, especially explaining the characteristics of this object only having a shell left, but not affecting its use, and being very difficult to detect problems, but breaking and shattering itself at a critical moment if used with too much force, explaining it vividly.
From the content of the jade slip, it seemed that the purpose of this magic treasure being refined was to scheme against people.
"The price is acceptable, not outrageous, and this magic treasure is somewhat interesting..." The black-robed person pondered, very moved, and finally took out a bundle of spirit tickets and gave them to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing raised his hand to take it, waved his sleeve, and the fan magic treasure flew out and landed in the black-robed person's hand. From the hand she extended, it could be seen that this was a young female cultivator.
She grabbed the fan and checked it, very satisfied, and left rapidly.
Seeing that a deal was really made, Xu Qing was very gratified. The Jin Gang Sect ancestor on the side also breathed a sigh of relief and whispered a transmission.
"Master, don't worry. I know this type of person too well. This is a specific magic treasure. In the eyes of many people, it is worthless, but in the hearts of some people, this is a sharp weapon for scheming against people. And it is not common, and it is impossible to guard against. If you think of a way to let the enemy take it away, it will definitely pit the other party to death without knowing how they died."
"Not bad." Xu Qing encouraged. This sentence made the Jin Gang Sect ancestor excited, secretly thinking that Xu Demon finally changed from one word to two words. This shows that his self-rescue was successful!
And his judgment was correct. The people in the black market were indeed not all buying and selling things for their own use. There were many stories within, and for them, this kind of specialized scheming object was not common.
So very quickly, Xu Qing welcomed the second customer. This person didn't seem to be a human race, but an alien race. After checking Xu Qing's jade slip, he didn't hesitate at all and bought three pieces in one breath and left.
Just like this, when the dusk of this day arrived, the eight magic treasures Xu Qing prepared were all sold out.
At this moment, seeing that they were almost sold out, Xu Qing retired the stall and walked in the market, preparing to leave to find the Captain and return to the sect.
At this moment, although it was dusk, as the sky darkened, there were more cultivators coming and going in the market. Xu Qing walked while his gaze was also scanning the stalls in the surroundings. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, his footsteps stopped, and he walked toward a stall on the side.
There were no items on this stall, only some handwriting carved on the wooden board on the side, within which two characters attracted Xu Qing's attention.
"Soul Pill?"
The stall owner was also a black robe, unable to tell whether it was male or female, and even wore a ghost mask on his face. Noticing Xu Qing walking over and asking, he raised his head and looked coldly.
"One hundred thousand spirit coins, one pill."
Xu Qing's eyebrows frowned. He knew that soul pills were very expensive. This object, whether it was for artifact refining or opening dharma apertures under specific techniques, or other evil techniques, would be needed. But at such a price, unless the quality was acceptable, it would not be worth it.
Seeming to have guessed Xu Qing's thoughts, the stall owner spoke faintly.
"The quality is acceptable, all refined with Foundation Establishment souls."
Xu Qing pondered. If it was refined with Foundation Establishment souls, and the quantity was large, it would be helpful for him to open dharma apertures, especially since he was now only eleven dharma apertures away from igniting the third life fire.
Toward this, Xu Qing was still somewhat urgent, so he threw out a roll of spirit tickets. The stall owner glanced at it and gave a jade box with a wave of his hand.
Xu Qing took it and opened it. After glancing at it, his pupils narrowed slightly.
It was indeed a Foundation Establishment soul, and... it was also mixed with some Qi Condensation souls, which were also Sea Corpse Clan.
Xu Qing looked at this stall owner deeply. He didn't see the Captain's aura on the other party. So if all the soul pills were Sea Corpse Clan, it was likely that they should also be Seven Blood Eyes cultivators.
Only the Seven Blood Eyes would possess so many Sea Corpse Clan souls now.
"How many more?" Xu Qing asked, his right hand tapping on the black iron skewer in his bosom as if casually.
"Many." The stall owner raised his head, looked at Xu Qing, his expression carrying some cold pride.
Xu Qing pondered. After a few breaths, he was decisive in his heart.
"I want forty!"
As soon as these words came out, the stall owner was also shocked. The cold pride was gone, and his breathing was slightly rapid, clearly hesitating.
"I don't have that many here. Wait for me, I have other companions, we should be able to gather almost enough."
"It's fine, but I bought so many, you need to give me a few for free." Xu Qing said seriously.
The stall owner was also a straightforward person. Hearing this, he nodded, pinched the jade slip in his sleeve and started transmitting. In a short time, five or six cultivators in the same attire arrived rapidly from the surroundings. After approaching, they all looked at Xu Qing a few times.
Among them, there was a tall cultivator whose aura fluctuation was extremely strong, staring at Xu Qing for the longest time.
Xu Qing also looked at them.
After a long while, this tall cultivator smiled in a low voice.
"Seventh Peak?"
"First Peak?" Xu Qing said calmly.
The tall cultivator smiled again upon hearing this and didn't ask anymore. He waved his hand and took out a storage bag, throwing it to Xu Qing.
"Forty-three pills!"
After Xu Qing took it and checked it, he gave the spirit stones exchanged from selling the magic treasures and turned to leave.
Until he walked away, these few black-robed people squatted together, gazing at the direction Xu Qing left. The stall owner who was the first to speak whispered.
"Second Senior Brother, who is this kid from the Seventh Peak? The sect's reward hasn't come down yet, how is he so rich."
"Hard to say. That group of people from the Seventh Peak all like to hide... Let's check it later. If he is so rich, maybe he needs a protector. Right, when the time comes, let him hire us at a high price all year round. Recently, fat sheep have been fewer. I believe he will definitely be very generous and hire us."
"Let's not talk about this first. Let's hurry up and sell the things. The war is about to end. After selling this time, we probably don't need to continue to the battlefield."
