Clan Cultivation: The Ye Clan

Chapter 275 Exploring the Map 19

Upon seeing Manager Liu approaching, the waiter quickly stepped forward and truthfully explained the situation.

Two female fellow practitioners took a liking to a dark, murky stone inside. They both wanted it and started arguing about it.

Upon hearing this, Manager Liu glared at the waiter. Why make such a fuss over such a simple matter, attracting a crowd of onlookers? He really didn't know any better.

After giving the waiter a few instructions, he turned to the two female cultivators, his face immediately beaming with a smile, "My two little fairies, I've heard about the situation. According to the principle of first come, first served, the item should belong to this little fairy in white..."

Just as the words were spoken, the female cultivator in red suddenly became displeased. "Shopkeeper, you can't say that. The so-called 'two-way payment' means that she has only taken the money and hasn't paid the spirit stones yet, which means the transaction is not yet complete. It's probably inappropriate for you to say that."

Upon hearing this, Manager Liu was not worried at all. Instead, he smiled and comforted her, "Look at you, little fairy, you're just anxious! Let me finish!"

Manager Liu, unhurried and unhurried, glanced back and saw that the waiter had already come over with the goods. A confident smile appeared on his face.

“I was afraid you wouldn’t agree, so I had my young apprentice bring over all the similar stones in our shop for you two to choose from. Please take a look.”

After saying that, Manager Liu pointed to the tray that the waiter was carrying, which was full of similar dark stones.

Upon hearing this, the onlookers all turned to look at the two female cultivators, waiting to see their reaction.

While everyone was busy watching the show, two people suddenly appeared in the very back corner, walked to the counter as if no one else was there, and looked at the items on the counter.

"Do you have any Tier 2 Hundred Poison Pills?"

Sorry, we are currently out of stock.

"Okay, thank you."

After saying that, the two turned around and walked out of the shop.

As I passed by Ye Zhenwen, I glanced at him casually.

Ye Zhenwen saw it, nodded slightly, and then turned his gaze back to the farce unfolding over there.

As the two were leaving, one of them deliberately turned his head to look at the female cultivator in red robes in the middle of the farce, and curled his lips, revealing a hint of annoyance.

After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, the two quickly left Xinglan City and headed towards Qiufengyi without stopping.

One of them asked, "Do you know that woman?"

"you do not know?"

Why do I know him?

"hehe."

"Uh, should I get to know him?"

"Tsk tsk, I didn't realize you were such an ungrateful person."

"No, I didn't, you're talking nonsense."

"Do you remember, at the black market outside Maple Leaf City, someone told you that you didn't need to repay a debt of gratitude, and that if in the future you were to meet someone named..."

"Shen Leling's people, don't hesitate, just kill her." Nanfeng stopped in mid-air and said solemnly, "I have never forgotten her, but I have not actually seen this person. I even investigated this name specifically and found many, but I am not sure which one it is, which is why I have not taken action yet. It is really not because I am ungrateful."

Seeing his serious expression, Ye Zhenzhen reassured him, "Um, okay, the person wearing the red robe just now was Shen Leling."

Nanfeng suddenly opened his eyes wide, his gaze instantly hardening. "Then I'll go kill her now."

"Uh, no need. It's more important to ask the Dongfang family for help right now. Let's go."

"Okay." The two continued flying towards Qiufengyi.

Meanwhile, inside the Treasure Pavilion, the farce continued.

He Ruonan affixed the talisman, squeezed out of the crowd, and walked towards Ye Zhenwen.

The two looked at each other without saying a word, yet it seemed as if they had said everything.

Ye Zhenwen teased, "What? You didn't like any of them?"

"Ugh, there are too many people. I just started watching and I got pushed to the side. Oh well, I'll watch it next time."

"Tch, can't you even look upstairs? The junk in the discount section isn't worth your time. What? You're thinking of finding a bargain? Tsk tsk tsk, do you even know if you're lucky enough to do that?"

He Ruonan looked embarrassed. "It's just that I'm short on spirit stones. If I had your ability to make money through alchemy, I certainly wouldn't be short of spirit stones!"

"Oh dear, you've gotten smarter! As for me, never mind, I feel sorry for you two. I'll let you each choose something when we go upstairs later as a reward, otherwise you might say I'm stingy."

"No, no, thank you Elder Hu. Tiger, come here quickly, thank you Elder Hu."

Ye Zhendong, who was still craning his neck to watch the show, was brought back to his senses and quickly said with a smile, "Then thank you very much, Elder Hu."

"Alright, is that ever going to stop? We've been waiting for this long."

Ye Zhendong smiled, looking like a chrysanthemum, and said, "Not yet, and it looks like it won't be finished anytime soon."

"What do you mean?" Ye Zhenwen's voice suddenly rose several decibels. "Oh my, it seems this stone is no ordinary stone!"

"I think so too. The two female cultivators didn't take a liking to any of the good things that Manager Liu just acquired, but they did take a liking to that black stone. Now they've started bidding, and the highest bidder wins."

Ye Zhenwen became interested, craned his neck, and asked, "What was the original price? How much is it now?"

"The original price was 10 spirit stones, but now it's 1000."

"What?" Ye Zhenwen looked incredulous. "Forget about stones, if it were a spiritual medicine, I would definitely get involved."

Ye Zhendong glanced at Ye Zhenwen; this persona was maintained very well.

"The price should be about right. When it reached 1500 spirit stones, the white-robed female cultivator stopped bidding. I guess she didn't have enough spirit stones."

"Hurry up, is a business deal worth a mere 1000 spirit stones really worth wasting so much time on?"

He Ruonan promptly offered a compliment, saying, "Of course, I cannot compare to you."

At this moment, Manager Liu's mouth was practically turned to the sky. Such a broken stone could actually be sold for such a high price.

He also had his doubts. Could there be some treasure inside this stone? No way, it should be just an ordinary stone, as it has been examined by three senior appraisers in our shop!

Undeterred, she observed it closely for a while longer, which annoyed the red-clad female cultivator, Shen Leling. "What are you looking at? This is my treasure!" she said.

"Manager Liu, have you made up your mind? Can you give it to me now? Or does Manager Liu want to back out?"

"No, no," Manager Liu handed the stone to Shen Leling. Shen Leling looked smug, glared at the white-robed female cultivator, and left like a victorious little rooster.

The female cultivator in white stomped her foot angrily and ran away.

Manager Liu then remembered Elder Hu who was waiting over there, and quickly walked over, "I'm so sorry, Elder Hu, have you been waiting long?"

"Yes, such a small business has wasted so much time. Is this how Manager Liu does business?"
