Start from the thief

The jade pendants glow with a soft aura. Among various treasures, jewelry is very popular because it is easy to carry.

"It's probably a top grade yellow rank. Its effect is that it can blur your figure when activated, which is a great advantage when fighting with others."

Everyone nodded repeatedly. They were all cultivators, so they naturally knew that it was a disadvantage not being able to see the opponent's body shape clearly during a fight.

"This thing is very good, I want it."

Cui Jinghao spoke decisively. General Li hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not fight for it.

"In that case, this thing belongs to me, this tripod belongs to Brother Ye, and the Bagua card belongs to Miss Fang. How about that?"

Lan Ling and Ye Shi nodded at the same time. The first deal was concluded and everyone was happy.

Zhao Yushu gave Lan Ling a questioning look. Lan Ling shook her head slightly, indicating that they would talk about it later, and then waited for Cui Jinghao to open the second box.

The first thing Lan Ling brought out was a top-grade yellow-grade item, which made everyone present look at the young couple with a higher opinion of them. They were indeed rich kids from the prosperous Central Plains.

"The second one is somewhat special. In terms of power alone, it can be called a mid-level or even high-level Xuan-grade item."

Cui Jinghao solemnly opened the smallest box, and inside lay a piece of tattered talisman paper.

"Longhu Mountain Talisman?"

General Li sat up suddenly.

"No, it's not from Mount Longhu. This is the golden sword talisman of a senior cultivator from the Central Plains. When activated, it is equivalent to a full-strength attack from the fifth level. It should have been at least a top-grade Xuan-level sword, but it's been too old and badly damaged. It can only be activated twice at most. I was unlucky, so it was only activated once."

It is another good thing, but it is still useless to Zhao Yushu. No matter how powerful the sword talisman is, it is not as powerful as Madam Xu.

However, Zhao Yushu still raised his hand decisively.

He may not need it, but Lan Ling does, and this is a good excuse to deceive others. Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Six of the academy is a superb swordsman, and he would never spend money to buy such a thing.

"Young Master Yang, are you interested? What can you offer in exchange?"

Zhao Yushu took out the glass cup and briefly introduced its effects. Cui Jinghao burst out laughing: "Young Master Yang really knows how to enjoy himself. He even carries such a good thing with him. Hahahaha, but Young Master Yang, I'm not afraid of you blaming me, but with just this wine cup, it's still not enough."

As the glass cup was taken out, several people became more convinced that the young couple was the kind of sweet and adorable couple with good cultivation and family background. They could cheat them for a while and just treat it as paying for a lesson, but they must not be killed, otherwise the forces behind them would be difficult to deal with.

Zhao Yushu's face suddenly showed hesitation. Cui Jinghao saw it and immediately understood that he still had some good stuff but was reluctant to take it out.

It seems like we need to put some pressure on it.

Cui Jinghao gave Li Canjun a subtle look, and Li Canjun immediately understood. He coughed twice and took out a miniature halberd from his arms.

"This item was given by the Grand Commander. Mr. Cui and Mr. Ye Shi probably have heard of it. It's not very effective, but when you throw it out, the spiritual energy will condense and not disperse. It has the power of the third heaven. Moreover, you can take it back after using it. You can spend half a day to nourish the spiritual energy and use it again. It's also very convenient."

Zhao Yushu's eyes lit up again, and he kept looking back and forth between the two objects, with a very conflicted expression.

Lan Ling watched him acting so seriously that she had a hard time holding back her laughter.

"In that case, I will change it."

Cui Jinghao pushed the box towards Li Canjun.

"Wait a minute!"

Zhao Yushu raised his hand suddenly.

"Mr. Yang, this is what I got first."

"Well, Mr. Yang, your wine glass is nice, but compared to these two, its value is still a little less."

Cui Jinghao and Li Canjun sang the same tune, not believing that they could not force this young man to bring out something good.

Zhao Yushu looked at Lan Ling with a bitter face. Lan Ling sighed and took out the round fan from her arms.

“Xuan Tier!”

Three people stood up at the same time. Yellow-grade treasures were common, but Xuan-grade treasures were quite rare. Even if Zhao Yushu was lucky enough and had the support of the academy, the number of Xuan-grade treasures he got was only a handful. After all, Xiangjiang Temple had suffered a great loss in the past, and the Buddhist beads that were compensated and now worn on Lan Ling's wrist were only of Xuan-grade.

"What is the effect of this thing?"

Ye Shi was the first to lose his temper and asked in a trembling voice.

"When it is activated, the scent spreads and makes people confused. But let me tell you, the scent can be easily blown away by the wind."

Lan Ling put the round fan on the table and said, "If you want to exchange, either you can show me something good of the same grade, or you can give me one of these two."

Lan Ling sat up with her sleeves folded, looking straight ahead, waiting for the three men to make a decision.

"Haha, Miss Fang, you're joking. If we exchanged yours, we wouldn't be able to split it."

"That's not what I want to consider."

Lan Ling said indifferently: "If you can give me more, it's not impossible."

"Wait a moment, Li, let's have a chat."

Cui Jinghao apologized and took General Li into the back hall, apparently to discuss how to divide the property.

Mr. Ye Shi's eyes flashed and he quietly greeted Zhao Yushu.

"I have another thing in my house, and I want to exchange it for your fan."

"Well, I'm sorry, I really like those two things. How about Mr. Ye Shi go back and get them?"

Ye Shi hesitated after hearing this: "Forget it then."

Zhao Yushu and Lan Ling looked at each other. Ye Shi didn't want to bring that thing over because he was afraid that Cui Jinghao and Li Canjun would know about it. It seemed that this Japanese man was not on the same side as them.

"Lao Cui, these two are very wealthy!"

As soon as Li Canjun arrived at the back hall, he showed an impatient and greedy look: "Let's just do it!"

General Li made a knife-hand gesture with a ferocious look in his eyes.

"Shut up! Look at them, it's obvious that they are backed by aristocratic families or even sects. If something happens to them here, do you think that their teachers won't be able to come because they are far away? Don't forget that they were sent by their elders to do business."

"But Lao Cui, it's been so rare to find such a fat sheep in all these years. Are we just going to let them go? I won't be able to sleep at night. Besides, they are all from the Central Plains and are our Goguryeo's mortal enemies!"

"Let it go?"

Cui Jinghao sneered: "When did I say I would let them go? I bet they must have some good stuff on them. I'm going to squeeze out their treasures bit by bit, and then find someone to take the blame, so that they can't even say anything about their suffering."

Li Canjun's eyes lit up: "You mean, that idiot Ye Shi?"

Cui Jinghao nodded: "But he alone is not enough, let's stabilize them for a few days, I have to go see that adult."

Li Canjun took a deep breath and said, "It just so happens that they are fighting with Zhongyuan fiercely. That person will definitely be willing to take action. Let them fight each other and we can just sit back and reap the benefits."

Cui Jinghao narrowed his already narrow eyes and said, "If you want to catch a big fish, you have to bait it. Lao Li, don't be so secretive. Take out your thing."

Li Canjun hesitated for a moment: "I only have that Xuan-level one. Okay, okay, don't look at me like that. I'll leave it at home. Tomorrow, if you organize another game, I'll bring it to you."

Seeing Cui Jinghao and Li Canjun walking back, Zhao Yushu put on a bright smile and asked, "How did you two discuss it?"

"All right."

Zhao Yushu's smile widened: "Then I won't be polite."
