I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

He said, "This elixir is indeed of the first-grade superior quality. Not bad."

He pondered for a moment and said, "These Qi-boosting and Spirit-gathering Pills each cost 120 low-grade spirit stones, while the detoxification and healing pills each cost 150 low-grade spirit stones. What do you think?"

Gu Liyue knew from his expression just now that the quality of her pill was excellent.

Because she had asked about the price before, she felt that the price was fair, so she said, "Just do as Shopkeeper Lin said."

Shopkeeper Lin expected some bargaining, but he didn't expect her to agree so readily. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Miss Yue is straightforward."

He picked up the abacus beside him and clattered for a while before saying, "These eighteen bottles of elixir cost a total of twenty-four thousand six hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Gu Liyue smiled and said, "I'm looking for a spiritual sword in Duobao Pavilion. Shopkeeper Lin, could you give me a discount?"

When business came, Shopkeeper Lin smiled and said, "No problem. Miss Yue, if you need any more pills in the future, please come to me again. Just tell the maid to ask for me."

Gu Liyue raised her head, took the Qiankun bag, checked it, confirmed the number of spirit stones was correct, and put it away.

Xiaoxuan was quiet the whole time. Does this mean he has grown up and become more mature?

In fact, as soon as Xiao Xuan entered Duobao Pavilion, he kept sensing the spiritual weapons around him, to see if he could find a weapon that would suit Gu Liyue.

Gu Liyue said goodbye to Shopkeeper Lin and walked to the front yard. The maid who had received her was waiting there and asked, "Sir, is there anything else you would like to see?"

"I'm looking for a spiritual sword, and your shopkeeper just agreed to give me a discount."

"Okay, please come with me."

Gu Liyue was taken to the second floor by her. In the counter where the spirit swords were displayed, various spirit swords were placed on the counter, and some were hung on the wall.

The maid said, "Sir, take a look and see if there is anyone you like."

Gu Liyue looked carefully and saw light longswords, heavy heavy swords, beautiful swords inlaid with various gems, and plain ones.

She didn't feel anything.

Out of curiosity, she wanted to know whether the price of this spiritual sword inlaid with gems would be more expensive than the one without, so she reached out to pick it up, waved it gently a few times, and felt that it was not light enough.

At this moment, a hurried voice rang out: "This sword, I want it!"

Gu Liyue and the maid looked at the person who came, and saw a girl who was about the same age as Gu Liyue. She was petite and had a round face. She was very cute, but the words she said were unpleasant.

She looked eagerly at the spiritual sword in Gu Liyue's hand.

Gu Liyue asked the maid, "How much is this spiritual sword?"

When Li Wushuang heard Gu Liyue's question, he found that she was ignoring him and was still asking about the price.

She was furious and rushed straight towards Gu Liyue.

Gu Liyue saw the spiritual energy surging around her body, and judging from the situation, she should be at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Xiao Xuan transmitted a message: "She has quite a lot of spirit stones, and she also has a lot of spirit talismans on her body."

The maid obviously knew this girl and was a little afraid of her. She looked at the two guests, remembered the rules of Duobao Pavilion, and said with a stiff upper lip, "Miss Li, this guest was the first to see the sword."

Then he whispered a price to Gu Liyue: "This spirit sword will cost 5,000 low-grade spirit stones."

He looked at Miss Li again and smiled apologetically.

Gu Liyue thought to herself: With so many spirit stones and talismans, and the surname Li, she must be related to the Li family, a family of talisman painters. Judging from her arrogant look, she is most likely the youngest daughter of the Li family.

"Five thousand isn't expensive, and this sword is so beautiful!"

Li Wushuang became even more anxious when she heard her say that. She had also taken a fancy to it last time. At that time, her elder brother was dissatisfied with her for buying fancy but useless things home all day long, so he confiscated her spirit stones, which prevented her from buying it.

In the Li family, she was not afraid of the head of the family, nor her father, but she was afraid of her eldest brother, Li Xiuyuan. She was afraid the moment she saw him. Because his brother would confiscate her spirit stones, ignore her coquettishness, and even ignore her pleas.

The other elders all listened to her, and later, under the supervision of her eldest brother, her cultivation level improved a lot. The elders tacitly allowed her eldest brother to take care of her. Whenever she had any problems, they asked her to go to her eldest brother, but she didn't dare to, which led to her failure to buy the sword.

She must buy it today. The sword is inlaid with gems and she liked it at first sight. She thought it would look so beautiful hanging around her waist.

She knew the rules of Duobao Pavilion, and she didn't know the background of the owner of Duobao Pavilion. He was not even afraid of the royal family, so she didn't want to offend Duobao Pavilion.

While Li Wushuang was thinking about all this, Gu Liyue was also communicating with the waitress. The two seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.

Li Wushuang saw Gu Liyue's interest in it, and her face flushed with anxiety. She said, "I'll buy it for six thousand."

Gu Liyue looked at the maid and said, "Can it still be decided by the highest bidder?"

The maid nodded, and Gu Liyue said, "I really like it too. Six thousand one."

Li Wushuang's eyes widened and he said, "How could you—how could you do this? Seven thousand."

After several rounds of bidding, when Li Wushuang finally called out 10,000, Gu Liyue said regretfully, "I don't have enough spirit stones. Let me look at something else."

In the end, this fancy magic sword was bought by Li Wushuang.

Before she left, she gave Gu Liyue a disdainful look: "I just told you not to compete with me for spirit stones, why didn't you listen?"

Watch her walk away arrogantly.

Gu Liyue looked at the maid, and the maid handed 2,500 spirit stones to Gu Liyue.

This was the agreement they had just reached through word of mouth. To be more precise, it was an agreement reached with Manager Lin through the maid.

Gu Liyue helped him raise the price of the sword and sell it, and the extra profit was divided equally between Gu Liyue and Duobao Pavilion.

Xiao Xuan was talking to Gu Liyue: "You can still make money like this, Liyue, you're amazing!"

"I have to work hard to make money, otherwise how can I support you? You used to get two mid-grade spirit stones a day, which is equivalent to two thousand low-grade spirit stones! Now it's doubled!"

At this time, Xiao Xuan's excited voice rang out: "Gu Liyue, that black longsword lying on the ground in the corner on the right is more valuable than the one we just saw that only looked good but was useless!"

Under Xiaoxuan's guidance, Gu Liyue walked to the corner and picked up a dusty spiritual sword.

The maid said, "Miss Yue, this is a spirit sword that has been unsold for a long time. If you like it, I'll give you a discount."

The maid took the spirit sword and wiped it with a soft cloth. She said, "This one was brought here by a casual cultivator to sell. Perhaps because it looks too ordinary, it hasn't been sold for a long time."

Xiaoxuan's crisp voice rang out: "Take it."

Gu Liyue took it and waved it twice, feeling good. She said, "It's really inconspicuous, so I'll consider it a discounted price!"

The maid thought to herself, this young lady really knows how to bargain. Well, the shopkeeper had already agreed to give her a discount. She said, "Originally, this one was priced at 2,800. I'll give you 2,500."

Gu Liyue said, "Talk to your shopkeeper and see if he can give me 2,400."

The maid immediately communicated with Shopkeeper Lin using a jade communication slip, which had a function similar to a modern mobile phone.

After a moment, the maid said, "Manager Lin agreed."
