Immortality begins with meditation puppets

Chapter 146 A Born Honest Person

Become famous in World War I!
The onlookers, mostly unaffiliated cultivators, were all shocked to see the hounds and cavalry so badly ravaged by the lizard knights.

Some clever middlemen had already run back to the front-line camp to find those independent cultivators who weren't watching the spectacle on the front lines and resell their dogs, horses, and heavy cavalry.

Because everyone knows that if this thing isn't sold off soon, it'll be stuck with us for good!

At this moment, the puppeteers of the Wang family all focused their attention on Wang Xing.

"Third Uncle, should we go and fight him again?"

Wang Junli said somewhat uncertainly.

As a puppeteer, he could tell that Hai Changqing hadn't held back at all.

In fact, as a Qi Refining Peak cultivator who could command thirty dogs and horses on his own, his spiritual strength far surpassed that of others, and he could even manipulate the dogs, horses, and heavy cavalry to perform some tactical operations on the battlefield.

Even if they worked together, they could only control forty or fifty heavy cavalry units at most, and they might not be able to control them as skillfully as Hai Changqing alone.

If they were to fight again, the outcome would likely be similar.

It's not that the people themselves are incompetent, it's that the puppets are incompetent!
Of course, if the puppets are no good, you could also say that the Wang family is no good!

"What's the point of fighting? Haven't we lost enough face for the Wang family already?"

They've made it clear that they're targeting the new puppets that our heavy cavalry has developed. If we were to fight them with our heavy cavalry, we'd be courting death!
If you ask me, it's because the family has protected you too well. The rogue cultivators are all lone wolves, cunning and unpredictable. They don't make a move unless they're sure they'll win!

Because they can't afford to lose, but my Wang family is different. My Wang family isn't just about puppets like dogs and horses. Let him be smug for a while, then we'll quickly return to our family!"

Wang Xing scolded a few of the younger generation and then turned to leave.

He knew he was incapable, and he also knew he was no match for the heavy cavalry.

But he was certain that once the opponent revealed their methods, and the Wang family's overall strength overwhelmed them, the Wang family would be in for a rude awakening!
······
Evergreen is no good!

He initially thought Su Qing was too young and impetuous, and wanted to teach him a lesson with his dogs and horses.

Let him be a more honest person in the future, and stop treating others like fools by selling overpriced, unscrupulous puppets!

Unexpectedly, in the battle, his thirty-four heavy cavalry units, which he had painstakingly built up, were either wounded or destroyed.

lost heavily!

Why bother?
Who is stronger between the dog-horse heavy cavalry and the lizard knights? What does it have to do with Hai Changqing?
Hai Changqing, believing he was stupid and had done something foolish, put some dogs, horses, and heavy cavalry that could still be repaired and used for three years into his storage bag.

Only then did he return to the forward camp with a bitter expression.

Looking up again, he saw the lizard riders standing unharmed behind Su Qing.

His eyes were filled with envy.

You don't know how amazing these lizard riders are until you get a good beating.

Ten lizard riders can rival a hundred dogs and horses!
Su Qing's previous statement was not false. The 14,000 spirit crystals for a single mounted lizard is not an overpriced, black-hearted puppet, but a cheap and beautiful one!

Su Qing is not a heartless puppeteer; he genuinely treats the rogue cultivators like family. Such a good puppet, yet he only sells it for 14,000 spirit crystals. Can he earn that back?

Unfortunately, I can't afford to buy many of these cheap and easy-to-use puppets for the time being!

"Fellow Daoist Su, it was I, Hai, who was blind. This puppet is far superior to dogs, horses, heavy cavalry, and, as you said, is 14,000 spirit crystals, which is indeed a fair price!"

Hai Changqing had no grudge against Su Qing. In the previous duel, he had foolishly pulled out his heavy cavalry, so it was only right for him to admit defeat now.

He didn't lose face as a person; he lost face as a puppet of the Wang family!

Su Qing had a very good impression of this sales influencer who seemed even more qualified than Zhang Qing, and even cupped her hands in greeting:

"Fellow Daoist's divine sense far surpasses that of ordinary people. Your ability to single-handedly command thirty-four heavy cavalry dogs and horses is truly admirable. This defeat is not your fault!"

The two flattered each other, while subtly criticizing the cavalry and horses.

With smiles on their faces, they led the large group back towards the stall area.

During this process, Liang Haishun and He Lianxian, along with Pang Feifan, Shao Delong, Niu Shisan and others, quietly infiltrated the group of rogue cultivators.

"The true test is in actual combat. I never expected that the heavy cavalry, which looked so good, would turn out to be such weaklings on the battlefield. It's a real shock!"

"The thought of fighting monsters with such puppets in the future makes my heart pound!"

"How dare the Wang family ask for four or five thousand spirit crystals for such a worthless puppet!"

"These cultivation families are just taking advantage of us rogue cultivators who have no connections. They control the puppet business in several markets, setting whatever price they want without any room for negotiation!"

"To be honest, Fellow Daoist Su is the most considerate. We are all rogue cultivators, and he knows the hardships we rogue cultivators face, so he has always taken care of us!"

"That's right, fellow cultivator, which of you has used that witch puppet and doesn't recommend it?"

"Take this lizard knight for example. If it were the Wang family, they would sell it for forty or fifty thousand spirit crystals, but Fellow Daoist Su only sold it for a little over ten thousand spirit crystals!"

"Buying it is a sure win. Even if you don't use it yourself, you can still accumulate value or keep it as a family heirloom, which is a good thing!"

"Absolutely, absolutely. Fellow Daoist Su, you're selling ten today. Who knows if you'll be able to sell any more in the future?"

"I understand, I understand! This is a golden opportunity! I'll sell everything I own to buy one!"

With shills like Liang Haishun stirring up the loose cultivators' desire to buy, and the lizard knight's performance being observed by the loose cultivators, the situation was quite different.

Therefore, when Su Qing returned to the stall, it was completely surrounded by people, three layers deep.

The price is too low!
Judging from this situation, ten lizard riders simply wouldn't be enough to sell!

Su Qing's mind raced, and she turned to the crowd, cupping her hands in greeting:
"Fellow Daoists, the process of forging these Lizard Knights is extremely complicated. I can only forge a few in a month."

However, there are far too many fellow cultivators who want it, and if we give it to some and not others, we will inevitably offend some.

Therefore, I've come up with a compromise: let's start the bidding at a low price of ten thousand, and the highest bidder wins.

Upon hearing this, the independent cultivators, not being fools, immediately understood that he wanted to sell more spirit crystals.

However, they realized that a puppet of the same quality as the Lizard Knight was indeed not something Su Qing could create in a short time.

If this batch sells out, who knows when the next batch will be available? Buy early and enjoy it sooner!

Moreover, the sooner you get it, the sooner you can take it out to kill demons and earn spirit crystals.

For such means of production that can quickly generate profits, the independent cultivators are still willing to spend their spirit crystals.

Hearing this, Hai Changqing felt even more bitter.

He should have just honestly bought the lizard knight for over ten thousand spirit crystals.

Now that he's using his heavy cavalry to help the lizard knights make a name for themselves, he still has to compete with other cultivators for these ten puppets, and he doesn't know how many more spirit crystals he'll have to spend!

How could my brain suddenly stop working like this?
Just as Hai Changqing was feeling frustrated, Su Qing cupped his hands to the assembled cultivators and said:
"Please forgive me, fellow practitioners. I have no other faults, except that I am too honest!"

I promised Hai Daoyou that after the puppet battle, I would buy him two Lizard Knights.

Therefore, if you wish to bid, you must wait until the other bidders have finished choosing!
