Chapter 1069: Snatching, Gambling Fight

A thick aura rushed directly toward He Pingsheng's face.

In this aura, there was blood energy, and also an aura from the ancient times.

After cultivating the Chaos Golden Scripture, He Pingsheng was unusually sensitive to various blood energies; at this moment, he knew that the golden bone in front of him was absolutely extraordinary.

Even if it were a bone left behind by an Earth Immortal of the Witch Clan, it must be that kind of gifted Witch Clan.

"Kid, from now on, it's yours!"

"Put it away!"

The woman handed this piece of golden bone to He Pingsheng personally.

He Pingsheng took it carefully.

Before he could put the bone into his ring, He Pingsheng suddenly heard a commotion behind him.

He turned his head and saw a white-haired old man with a hunched figure bringing two young people to the second floor.

He Pingsheng put the golden witch bone into his ring with lightning speed.

*Flop... *

In front, the shopkeeper in blue Daoist robes knelt on the ground and said to the old man: "Greetings to City Lord Tianyin!"

*Flop... *

Another female guide also knelt down.

He Pingsheng was a bit embarrassed.

To tell the truth, he didn't want to kneel!

Just when he was hesitating how to deal with it, the old man waved his hand and said: "I dislike these tedious rituals the most, all get up, no need to salute!"

"Yes!"

The two stood up.

He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief: No matter what, he didn't have to consider the problem of kneeling.

"What a thick aura!" Behind the old man, one of the two young people, a woman, spoke, and then looked at He Pingsheng.

This woman was wearing purple Daoist robes, her skin was so white it dazzled the eyes, her black hair was like a waterfall, and she was breathtakingly beautiful.

Beside this woman followed a tall and handsome man; the man held his arms, his pupils carrying a faint pride, and also looked at He Pingsheng.

Two spiritual senses swept over him unscrupulously.

To not return a favor is not polite!

Since you dare to scan me, then it's no problem for me to scan you back, right?

*Hum hum hum... *

He Pingsheng's spiritual sense also scanned out across the air.

Use the opponent's way to treat the opponent!

But the result was far from what he had guessed; in He Pingsheng's view, those who could follow the City Lord, even if they were Human Immortal disciples, were the best among Human Immortals, at least they should have eleventh or twelfth layer cultivation, right?

But clearly not!

This woman's cultivation was at the sixth layer of the Human Immortal stage, and the man's cultivation was even weaker, the same as He Pingsheng, also at the fifth layer of the Human Immortal stage.

"Bold!" Seeing He Pingsheng actually dare to scan them with spiritual sense, the man was furious and said: "You don't want to live?"

"Hey..." The woman in purple robes reached out and pressed the man: "Junior Brother, don't!"

After speaking, she looked at He Pingsheng again and asked: "Just now, what did you purchase here? I smelled a very thick blood energy!"

"Don't worry, this Princess won't snatch other people's items casually, can you let me take a look at this item?"

Instantly, almost all eyes were on He Pingsheng.

Including the hunched old man.

He Pingsheng didn't dare to scan the old man's cultivation, but he could guess.

Since he was called City Lord, he was at least the Deputy City Lord of Qiankun Immortal City, and it was even possible he was the main one.

Whether main or deputy, that was a real Mysterious Immortal level, which was not something He Pingsheng could provoke.

He Pingsheng had no choice but to take a deep breath, adjust his aura, and take out that large bone from his ring: "It's this item, please take a look, fellow Daoist!"

He didn't mean to let go.

The woman in purple robes walked over herself, reached out and stroked the bone twice, saying: "It's a pretty good body-refining material!"

"Oh?" the man beside her said: "Senior Sister likes it... Very well... Kid, how many immortal crystals did you just buy it for?"

"I'll pay double the price!"

Before He Pingsheng could speak, the shopkeeper in blue beside them said: "It was one thousand two hundred mid-tier immortal crystals!"

"That's easy!" The man threw a Qiankun bag directly to He Pingsheng: "There are three thousand in here, they're all yours!"

"You can go now!"

He Pingsheng was immediately displeased!

Damn it, it's not like I don't have mid-tier immortal crystals!

What I want is an item for body refining!

"Apologies!" He put the bone away directly and said: "I have already paid the immortal crystals for this item, so it is my property. Now, I do not wish to sell it!"

"My apologies!"

It wasn't that he was angry at this man, but He Pingsheng truly did not want to sell it.

He estimated that if he absorbed all the blood-energy within this bone, his body-refining technique could advance at least one more layer; at the most conservative estimate, it would allow his cultivation base to enter the sixth layer of body refining.

If it doubled after reinforcement, it might even allow him to reach the seventh layer of body refining directly.

Such a thing definitely could not be easily handed over!

"Not bad!" The old man also nodded and said: "Theoretically speaking, as long as the immortal crystals have been paid, this thing belongs to you!"

"However..." The old man shifted his tone slightly and said: "I advise you to hand that thing over. Hehehe... Believe me, I am doing this for your own good!"

"Of course, if you don't hand it over, that is up to you. I will not bully you by using my status as a senior!"

"Hehehe..."

The old man looked at He Pingsheng joyfully and continued: "These two are disciples from Star Emperor City; they are both disciples of Lord Star Emperor!"

"It just depends on whether you dare to offend them!"

He Pingsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he was slightly shaken: Good heavens... Star Emperor City?

Disciples of a Golden Immortal powerhouse!

But, why is the cultivation base of Golden Immortal disciples so low?

"My father is Lord Star Emperor!" the woman in purple said directly: "Of course, we disciples of Star Emperor City do not wish to use our status to pressure others!"

"I also want this bone of yours. Although you have already paid the immortal crystals, you have not yet left the premises of the chamber of commerce!"

"If the chamber of commerce were to go back on its word and not sell it to you, it would count as my Star Emperor City bullying you with our status!"

"I will give you a fair chance!"

The woman raised her jade hand and pointed at the man beside her: "This is my Junior Brother 【Ji Wuxin】. You two are both at the fifth layer of the Human Immortal stage, so you are well-matched!"

"If you can defeat him, you can take the bone away!"

"If you lose, give the bone to me, and I will pay you an additional three thousand mid-tier immortal crystals!"

"How about it?"

A sharp glint flashed in the woman's eyes.

She stared fixedly at He Pingsheng.

Before He Pingsheng could speak, he received a voice transmission from the hunched City Lord opposite him: "Kid, don't act tough. They are not to be trifled with. Don't you see that even I, a dignified Deputy City Lord, have been dragged along to accompany them on their stroll?"

"You cannot afford to offend them!"

"Moreover, although this Ji Wuxin only has a fifth-layer cultivation base, his combat power is invincible among his peers, and he has even killed Human Immortals at the twelfth layer!"

"The value of the bone you just obtained isn't actually that high. Just resell it to them; we can't afford to offend them!"

"Listen to me, I won't harm you!"
