Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

The rankings on the Prodigy Ranking are quite reliable; in the end, on the arena, number twenty-two defeated number twenty-three.

Buddhist practitioners defeated demonic practitioners.

The monk ranked twenty-second, whose Buddhist name was Cheng Hui, was at the ninth level of the Heavenly Palace. His talent was comparable to Jing Xin's, and his strength was only slightly inferior to Jing Xin's.

At that moment, a dark shadow shot into the sky.

“Jingxin, back in the Divine Palace, you concealed your strength, and we never truly determined a winner. Now that we have both achieved the Dharma Aspect, it’s time to settle things.”

This person was none other than the demonic cultivator Qiu Tianlu. His body was filled with demonic energy, like a ferocious demon descending to earth. Those with slightly weaker cultivation levels did not even dare to look him in the eye.

During the ten years that the Divine Palace was open, he was always ranked first on the combat power list. Jingxin fought him once during that time and lost.

However, Jingxin concealed his true strength at that time.

The same applies to the current practice of purifying the mind. Although it is clearly only at the first level of the Dharma realm, it pretends to be at the seventh level of the Heavenly Palace. Many Buddhist practitioners are like this.

Jingxin exudes a holy aura. If someone's mind is not at peace, just one glance at him will give them the urge to convert to Buddhism.

“Amitabha, why should Benefactor Qiu care so much about winning or losing?”

Qiu Tianlu sneered, "If you don't care, you can go to the people at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion now and have them put you at the bottom of the list."

Jingxin did not reply, but went straight onto the arena.

They're practically arch-enemies, so there's no need for so much talk; they should just fight.

Battles between beings at the Dharma Aspect Realm are extremely terrifying. If it weren't for layers of arrays blocking the way, the aftershocks of the battle alone could destroy everything within a radius of a thousand miles.

Apart from gasps of surprise, there was no other sound at the scene; everyone was watching intently.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and still no victor was in sight.

But the two stopped fighting.

Many people present did not understand why they stopped fighting.

Xu Luo, who knew them well enough, chuckled.

Qiu Tianlu knew that if the fight continued, his chances of losing were extremely high, while Jingxin, adhering to Buddhist principles, didn't want to reveal her true strength. A draw was an acceptable outcome for both of them.

After Qiu Tianlu and Jingxin stepped down, the onlookers quickly dispersed.

Xu Qingzhou and his group also left and arrived at Jubaolou to select stone eggs.

Xu Chen and Xu Ying went over on their own without Xu Qingzhou even having to say anything. It would be a waste of spirit stones for anyone else to buy, but for the two of them to buy would be a huge profit.

This time, more stone eggs were brought back than before, at least 170 or 180.

The most expensive ones even exude a sense of wildness.

Xu Muge casually asked, "What exactly is the Starry Sea? Why are there so many stone eggs there?"

Xu Luo explained, "The Starry Sea is located at the border of the Northern and Eastern Regions. It is a vast and boundless sea, dotted with islands of varying sizes like stars."

"The largest and most serious war between the demon race and the human race once broke out in the ancient Star Sea."

"That great war lasted for more than a decade, and blood stained a large area of ​​the sea. Several groups of demons disappeared, and many powerful people in the human race also perished. It was also the beginning of the downfall of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Therefore, stone eggs can often be found in the ancient ruins discovered in Fanxinghai. People from Jubaolou have been active in Fanxinghai for many years, acquiring stone eggs and various treasures."

[Tu Jiuming, the adopted son of the city lord of Duanshan City, is trapped there. Once we have enough strength, we can find a way to rescue him. At that time, the actions of the acting city lord, Wei Jianghe, will also be made public.]

Xu Muge suddenly realized, "I see. Then let's go to the Starry Sea sometime. Maybe we can find some ancient ruins and make a fortune."

“There will be opportunities,” Xu Luo replied.

Nowadays, those searching for relics in the Starry Sea are all powerful figures from various forces, and they must be at least at the Integration Realm.

If you lack the strength, even if you're lucky enough to find ancient ruins, you'll ultimately be doing all the work for someone else.

While they were chatting, Xu Ying returned carrying a stone egg.

"Since I didn't find one I liked, I just picked one randomly."

After another incense stick's time, Xu Chen walked over with a disappointed look on his face.

"There are clearly more stone eggs this time than last time, but none of them are alive; they are all dead."

Xu Muge pointed to the one Xu Ying had chosen, "It's alright, the one my little sister chose is definitely alive."

They always had great faith in Xu Ying's luck.

Xu Chen quickly used his Qi Observation Technique to check, and was immediately astonished.

[Wait a minute, this one's dead, how could I possibly pick a dead egg with my luck?!?]

He vividly remembered the last time he selected stone eggs. He spent a lot of time and effort choosing two, and even if their value increased dozens of times, they still couldn't compare to the one Xu Ying randomly chose.

And that was indeed the final result; his two Azure Thunder Rocs only possessed a trace of the Kunpeng's bloodline.

Xu Ying's Heavenly Xuan Turtle is a genuine ancient mythical beast, and a very famous one at that.

Therefore, Xu Chen gained a very intuitive understanding of Xu Ying's luck.

But this time, Xu Ying also chose a dead egg, which left Xu Chen completely baffled.

[Could it be because I've been too tired lately and am not in good condition, causing a problem with my Qi Observation Technique?]

He doubted his own ability to read qi, but he didn't doubt Xu Ying's luck.

Xu Qingzhou, who heard his thoughts, was also surprised that the two of them had a different choice.

However, Xu Qingzhou understood that once he bought the egg and tried to hatch it, he would know where the problem lay.

Just as Xu Qingzhou expressed his intention to buy the stone egg, the manager of Jubaolou suddenly came out.

"I'm sorry, Chief Xu, but our Jubao Pavilion thinks there's something wrong with this stone egg. It's a defective product and can't be sold. If you want to buy it, please choose another one."

Xu Qingzhou instantly understood two things.

Firstly, the City Lord's Mansion of Duanshan City is also part of the alliance against the Xu family. If it is a defective product, it should be sold at a higher price, instead of suddenly saying that it is not allowed to buy it when you decide to buy it.

Jubaolou is a property of the City Lord's Mansion, and the manager represents the City Lord.

Secondly, Xu Ying's luck was not bad. Although the Xu family could not make a huge profit this time like they did last time when they bought the stone eggs, at least they would not lose money.

Xu Muge asked directly, "Since it's a defective product, why take it out at all?"

The shopkeeper replied, "I'm sorry, this was our mistake at Jubaolou."

"you!"

Faced with the shameless attitude of the Jubaolou manager, Xu Muge didn't know what to say.

Xu Luo said methodically, "Although your Jubao Tower is the seller, you can decide whether or not to sell your goods."

“But if you’re selling, then put it out; if you’re not selling, then explain in advance, or just put it away, instead of saying nothing and only informing us when we want to express our interest in buying.”

The shopkeeper's expression remained unchanged, and he spoke calmly as always.

"We apologize; this was a mistake on our part at Jubaolou. We will improve..."

Xu Muge was amused by his shameless appearance.

"If this is how you do business, Jubaolou, then we have nothing more to say."

"Sorry..." The shopkeeper said the same thing again, and Xu Qingzhou and the others turned and left.

After returning home, he spread the news throughout the city. Although it didn't have much impact on the city lord's mansion, it could at least affect the business of Jubaolou.

That's all the Xu family can do now.
