Chapter 223: Attempting to Pick Up Leaks

~10 min read 1,820 words

Half a month later, Xiao Han looked at the several Langya Pavilion Elders behind him and could not help but reveal his confusion.

"These are the Elders who are going to attend the Space Trading Fair this time. Since you are going the same way, just help give them a lift!" Yi Huang blinked her eyes and said playfully.

"Fine!" Xiao Han was truly unable to ignore the gazes of worship behind him, and in the end, he helplessly agreed.

"Listen to my arrangements for everything!"

"Yes!" Even if Xiao Han had not said it, these Elders were quite willing; their own idol was right before their eyes, and their hearts were surging with excitement!

………

In the boundless desert, white skeletal remains appeared from time to time, and occasionally a desert lizard would burrow out from the flat sandy ground, look around for a while, and then suddenly dive back into the depths of the earth.

However, this desolate place, devoid of human presence, appeared somewhat noisy at this moment, as a tyrannical aura would erupt in the desert from time to time before falling back into silence.

At this moment, a pitch-black hole suddenly appeared in the sky above the desert, and then, a man in white stepped out from the hole, followed by five or six figures.

Because Xiao Han was leading the group to travel, the speed was fast enough that there were not yet many powerhouses in the desert at this time; Xiao Han probed over, and the strongest was only a Half-Saint.

Looking at the desolate scenery all around, Xiao Han could not help but frown, "This Space Trading Fair is also troublesome; one day I must green this place!"

"Pavilion Master, do you need us to record these down?" Suddenly, an excited voice rang out. Xiao Han looked over and saw a middle-aged man holding paper and pen, his eyes red and his body trembling as he looked at him, occasionally recording things.

"What are you referring to?" Xiao Han pondered, he was just grumbling, surely not, surely not!

Could it be that someone really wanted to green this desert!

"Rest assured, Pavilion Master!" that Langya Pavilion Elder said with a light and fast speed,

"As long as our Langya Pavilion sends out ten Elders at the Dou Zun level who practice Wood Attribute Dou Qi, and we work continuously for two years, we can achieve the goal of greening the entire desert."

With a slap to his own face, Xiao Han finally believed the saying that in a large forest, there are all kinds of birds.

He just wanted to know how such a precarious intellect managed to support him in cultivating to a Seven-Star Dou Zun.

Looking at the many Langya Pavilion Elders around who also had helpless expressions, Xiao Han could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this Elder was just an isolated case; otherwise, Xiao Han would have to worry about the future of Langya Pavilion.

He thought in his heart that he still needed to tell Huang'er that Langya Pavilion must absolutely not encourage personality cults; look at how this had poisoned our Elders.

"You... are called Cang Yu, right?" Xiao Han was not quite sure; there were many Langya Pavilion Elders, and he did not manage affairs much, so he could not recognize all the Elders.

Upon hearing Xiao Han's words, the Elder called Cang Yu was very excited: "That is correct, Pavilion Master, this subordinate is Cang Yu!"

Cang Yu was extremely excited at this moment; the Pavilion Master actually called my name!

Xiao Han waved his hand: "Your suggestion is not bad!"

"Do not bring it up again next time!"

"Yes!" Cang Yu replied with some disappointment.

"Let's go, head to Space Town now." Xiao Han gave the order.

"Yes!"

……

In a depression in the sand dunes, a space black hole, a full hundred zhang in size, was slowly rotating, and a strong attractive force was surging from within it.

From time to time, one could see figures with tyrannical auras swiftly darting into it.

Xiao Han's group stopped in front of the space black hole, and under a gesture from the former, they also dispersed and darted inside.

"Disperse and act for now; we will gather again when the Space Trading Fair is held!"

"Yes!"

"Space Trading Fair, it has been a long time!" Xiao Han stared at the familiar hole before him, feeling a bit emotional for a moment.

Then he slowly walked inside.

……

Seeing these prosperous streets from his memories once again, Xiao Han's mood was very calm.

He still remembered when he first, and also the only time before this, came to Space Town, he was almost dazzled by the myriad of rare goods.

Earth Tier Dou Techniques, precious Medicinal Herbs, high-grade Medicinal Pills, weapons... visible everywhere.

Xiao Han strolled along the street, his Soul Power occasionally sweeping across the surroundings obscurely. In this Space Town where hidden dragons and crouching tigers resided, even with his Soul Power at the Heaven Realm Great Perfection level, he did not dare to be unscrupulous.

Picking up leaks...

This was one of the behaviors that many powerhouses would engage in within Space Town, and Xiao Han was no exception.

However, he was not just out of the idea of taking advantage; at the same time, he was also getting back at the losses he had suffered in the past.

Recalling the experience of being young and ignorant back then, lacking the eye for quality and spending a high price to buy trash, Xiao Han could not help but feel a burst of anger.

Just at this moment, Xiao Han stopped his footsteps, his gaze fixed on a small blue fruit.

Immediately, he shifted his gaze and walked away.

Upon reaching a dark corner, Xiao Han quietly changed his appearance and attire; unless it was someone extremely close like Yi Huang, no one would be able to see through Xiao Han's disguise.

After turning left and right, Xiao Han arrived at that stall once again.

The owner of the stall was a bald middle-aged man with a simple-minded face. Seeing a customer arrive, his big mouth split open, revealing a smile that he thought was kind but was actually exceptionally fierce.

"Brother, could you not smile?" Xiao Han truly could not accept this strange smile from a big man and could not help but remind him.

"Oh!" The man scratched his head in embarrassment, "I will pay attention."

He looked somewhat simple and honest, but Xiao Han's heart was as clear as a mirror; to dare to set up a stall in a place like Space Town surrounded by powerhouses, one must not only have a sharp eye but also have schemes and strength.

Otherwise, it would be easy to be eaten until not even the bones were left.

"How is this traded?" Xiao Han first picked up a golden fruit and asked the big man.

"Golden Sun Demon Fruit, Eighth-Grade Medicinal Herb. Selling price is one Earth Tier Low Grade Dou Technique." The man was clearly quite proficient in business and quickly completed the identification and price quote.

After finishing, he revealed that smile he thought was simple and honest again, "No bargaining!"

"So expensive!" Xiao Han curled his lips.

"This customer, you are joking; as one of the main ingredients for the Eighth-Grade Medicinal Pill Gold Sun Pill, selling it for one Earth Tier Dou Technique is considered a very fair price." The man retorted, clearly quite familiar with the function of this Golden Sun Demon Fruit.

The Gold Sun Pill, an Eighth Grade Pill capable of attracting around six-colored pill lightning, belongs to the upper-middle tier among Eighth Grade pills; a portion of the main medicinal ingredients is indeed worth this price, and perhaps even a bit cheap.

Afterwards, Xiao Han once again set his gaze upon the string of blue fruits beside it, "How shall we trade for this?"

The man's expression changed slightly at this, and he immediately grinned, "This guest may name a price!"

Xiao Han had a bottom line in his heart; as expected, this fellow did not recognize this Medicinal Herb, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he was lucky today.

With an unchanging expression, he spoke: "One Earth Tier Low Level Cultivation Method."

That man immediately became displeased, "This guest, this is where you are in the wrong; aren't you just trying to fool an honest man!"

Xiao Han looked at the other party with amusement: "You are certainly no honest man!"

From the various things just now, he also knew that he was not very good at playing the haggling game with others, so he went straight to the point:

"I have taken a fancy to this Medicinal Herb, name a price!"

That person was somewhat bewildered; how could you be so direct!

However, since he had run into a sucker, he didn't care anymore.

He was seen rubbing his hands as he said:

"This Medicinal Herb is exceptionally rare; Guest, just casually give me one Earth Tier High Grade Cultivation Method and one Eighth Grade Medicinal Pill with four-colored pill lightning."

"Added together, two Earth-tier Intermediate Cultivation Methods." Xiao Han began to counter-offer.

"How about one Earth Tier High Grade Cultivation Method and one Earth-tier Intermediate Cultivation Method?" The man retreated a step.

Xiao Han did not speak, but simply tossed out two Scrolls, then cleanly and neatly took the Golden Sun Demon Fruit and that string of blue fruits without taking a single cloud with him.

Without looking back, Xiao Han walked directly toward the location of the Space Trading Fair, about to disappear from that person's field of vision.

The middle-aged man's expression changed somewhat; the other party's clean and neat actions clearly meant he had lost out.

In reality, he could not recognize the name of this Medicinal Herb at all, but based on the energy contained within it, he could guess it was worth a fortune; yet, because no one could recognize its function, it naturally went ignored.

He had originally thought that since this person said they wanted it, they must have recognized its true value and were a fat piece of meat, but he had not expected that he had still underestimated its value.

The very instant Xiao Han saw that string of fruits, he had already tacitly decided that this Medicinal Herb belonged to him.

He had never expected that he would luckily encounter the legendary Medicinal Herb capable of completely reshaping the soul, which was thought to have vanished—the Soul Shaping Fruit; how could he let it go!

At this moment, Xiao Han had already arrived in front of the main entrance of the Space Trading Fair, but he had no intention of entering immediately; instead, he watched the lively scene at the entrance with great interest.
