After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

Xun Cinema, Mihai Club.

Under Han Li's manipulation, Chu Luobai was transformed into a Purple Crystal member of the Misty Sea Society.

Everyone was frantically speculating about which force was behind this red-clad female swordsman.

Especially after witnessing Chu Luobai's terrifying combat prowess, they became even more suspicious that she was an elite disciple secretly cultivated by a major sect.

After all, there are very few cultivators in the entire Qingzhou Realm who can reach the Dao Integration Realm in their twenties.

Moreover, all of those people were prodigies from major families or sects.

The stall owner stared in disbelief at the scene, feeling the spirit stones in his hands burning hot.

He carefully observed Chu Luobai's expression, constantly pondering what was going on in his mind.

On the other side, Han Li, having finished dealing with the matter, waved his fan and spoke loudly to the people around him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's end the show here for today."

"The Mysterious Sea Auction is about to begin. There are many rare items at this auction, so don't miss it."

These words were tantamount to an order to leave, and the cultivators understood immediately, chatting amongst themselves as they dispersed.

Many people lingered on Chu Luobai's face before leaving. If it weren't for Han Li's presence, they probably would have already gone up to him and started trying to build a relationship.

“When Zijing members participate in the auction, they have a private box.”

"I happen to be going to the auction anyway, so how about I take Fellow Daoist Chu there?"

Faced with Han Li's initiative, Chu Luobai glanced around and nodded after not seeing any purple or golden light.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Han."

The two stood side by side, and after taking only a few steps, the stall owner hurriedly came over.

With Han Li present, the stall owner seemed a little scared, hesitated for a while, and didn't dare to speak.

In the end, Chu Luobai took the initiative to come to the rescue.

"Please wait for me a moment, Master Han, as I have some matters to attend to."

Han Li glanced at the stall owner thoughtfully.

"It's alright, then I'll wait for Fellow Daoist Chu up ahead."

Seeing Han Li leave, the stall owner visibly breathed a sigh of relief. He rubbed his hands together and cautiously looked at Chu Luobai, subconsciously keeping a safe distance from her.

"Today, I was blinded by that spirit stone and failed to recognize its true value."

"Please, sir, have mercy on me this time."

As the stall owner spoke, he returned all the spirit stones he had received to Chu Luobai.

"Is there anything else you like at the stall? Consider it a small token of my apology."

As the stall owner spoke, he continued to carefully observe Chu Luobai's expression, fearing that if the other party became unhappy, he would never be able to enter the territory of the Misty Sea Society again in his lifetime.

"It's nothing, this book is enough. But..."

Chu Luobai twirled the bag full of snacks in her hand, her tone meaningful.

"I think that in the future, honesty should be the foundation of doing business. What do you think, fellow Daoist?"

The stall owner felt a chill run down his spine, and he couldn't help but shudder. The hairs on his body stood on end, and his body stiffened, as if even moving was extremely difficult.

After a long while, he finally calmed down and, in great fear, repeatedly said yes.

"You're right, you're right."

"From now on, I will be honest and trustworthy, and I will never do such a thing again."

Seeing that the stall owner was quite frightened, Chu Luobai also withdrew his aura, raised his hand and took out a spirit stone from his spirit stone bag, placing it in the other person's palm.

The stall owner looked at the high-grade spirit stones in his hand, unsure whether to accept them or not.

She could only stand there dumbfounded, looking at Chu Luobai with a face full of confusion.

“I’m not taking your things for nothing. This is the price I think this item deserves. You should know how to explain this to others.”

The stall owner listened and nodded repeatedly to show his loyalty.

"Understood, understood. I, Xu Ling, would never speak carelessly to anyone!"

Seeing that Xu Ling was so sensible as to introduce himself, Chu Luobai nodded in satisfaction and continued to ask.

"But I have one more question for you: where did you get this book?"

"This book..."

Xu Ling frowned. As a rogue cultivator, he spent many years wandering around, searching for rare and precious treasures.

He didn't really pay much attention to this book that he thought was trash.

For a moment, I couldn't quite recall it.

After a while, he looked down at a small purse embroidered with intricate patterns at his waist and finally remembered it.

"Oh! I remember now!"

"I found it near the border between Qingzhou and Nanjiang. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I always feel that area is not very safe."

"These two things were in the roadside bushes, I don't know who dropped them there. I just picked them up because I thought the pattern on the purse was interesting. I never expected the book to be a tattered martial arts manual. I can't figure out what's so special about it, so I brought it here to sell..."

After Xu Ling finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Chu Luobai's expression, afraid that his explanation would displease the other party.

What kind of pattern does the purse have?

Seeing Chu Luobai's curiosity, Xu Ling quickly took off the sachet from his waist and presented it with both hands.

"This item has a unique fragrance and distinctive patterns. Seeing that it posed no danger, I hung it on my body to scent my clothes, after all, I'm a grown man..."

As Xu Ling spoke, he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Chu Luobai ignored his sudden shyness, her attention focused on the purse.

The material of this purse is rather rough, quite different from the silk purses commonly used in Qingzhou.

Moreover, most of the purses in Qingzhou are white or light pink, but this one is dark blue all over, and the pattern embroidered with white thread roughly looks like a bird about to take flight.

It is like a simplified version of the phoenix in mythology, quite different from the one in Qingzhou.

"This thing..."

Chu Luobai began to speculate about the origin of the purse, and then took out a high-grade spirit stone from the spirit stone bag and tossed it to Xu Ling.

"This is a good item, sell it to me as well."

Exchanging a useless purse of unknown origin for a high-grade spirit stone—this deal seems like a bargain for Xu Ling no matter how you look at it.

He said somewhat embarrassedly.

"I just picked this up by the roadside. It's not very useful. You can just take it if you need it. You don't need to pay me such an expensive price."

"It doesn't matter, as long as I think it's worth it."

Chu Luobai looked down at her purse, her mind racing with thoughts.

"If you find anything similar in the future, sell it to me. You can either go directly to Manager Xu Fang or send it to the Qingyun Sword Sect."

Xu Ling listened, his eyes widening.

Unexpectedly, such a huge windfall came his way. He nodded quickly, his expression extremely sincere.

"That's for sure, that's for sure."

Although he felt that Chu Luobai was a sucker, it was normal for an ordinary person like him to be unable to fathom the thoughts of a genius.

If we can get the spirit stones, everything will be fine!

However... this female sword cultivator is actually from the Azure Cloud Sword Sect!

I need to figure out a way to really get on this good side in the future.
