Chapter 243 - 243: 240: Ming Emperor Sect’s Pursuit_1

Yang Chen had already taken these precautions in order to prevent the Trading Association from having any ill intentions. He took the initiative to mention his connection to the Zhou family, borrowing their power for his own purposes. If the Trading Association really investigated this, he wouldn’t be afraid either.

With the support of the Zhou family, his actions would be much easier.

Elder Liu was a smart man. Seeing Yang Chen’s boldness, combined with the fact that his eyes didn’t waver at all, he realized that the young man in front of him wasn’t lying.

With this thought, Elder Liu, with his hands behind his back, uttered, “Twenty-five thousand spirit stones for the price, I think it’s quite reasonable.”

He had initially wanted to ask for thirty thousand, trying to rip Yang Chen off, but after considering the Zhou family connection, he quoted a price of twenty-five thousand spirit stones.

Yang Chen didn’t hesitate, “Final offer, twenty thousand spirit stones!”

Elder Liu raised his eyebrows, realizing that the young man in front of him was good at bargaining. Twenty thousand spirit stones may seem like just a number, but Yang Chen reduced it by five thousand, and most importantly, twenty thousand spirit stones were indeed the normal price for the Ageless Flower, leaving no room for debate.

“Twenty-two thousand!” Elder Liu was unwilling, “Young Master, the Ageless

Flower is an incredibly rare item, asking for a little more is not a problem!”

“Hehe, Elder Liu should think about it carefully. The Ageless Flower only increases lifespan by three years. It’s not worth this price.” Yang Chen said lazily.

“But the Ageless Flower is a material for refining Life Extension Pills.” Elder Liu replied.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen’s mouth curved upward, “But who in MO City can refine Life Extension Pills? Elder Liu, I can’t afford your price. I’ll take my leave first.”

After saying this, Yang Chen turned around and left.

“This!”

Elder Liu was anxious.

He hesitated for a breath or two before hastyly saying, “Wait a minute, young man. How about twenty-one thousand?”

Yang Chen didn’t even stop walking.

“Twenty thousand, fine, just twenty thousand!” Elder Liu took a deep breath of cold air, gritted his teeth and reluctantly agreed.

Indeed, the reason Elder Liu kept the Ageless Flower for display and not for sale was not because it was exceptionally valuable, but because it couldn’t be sold. The Ageless Flower was indeed a rare species, but the price wasn’t as high as twenty thousand spirit stones.

If someone could refine the Life Extension Pill, the price of the Ageless Flower would naturally rise.

But no one in MO City could do it.

Left with no choice, he, as the manager of the Trading Association, had just come up with the rule of only displaying and not selling. He was using the unsellable Ageless Flower to boost his status. Since it couldn’t be sold anyway, why not hype it up?

But this young man in front of him saw through his intention at once.

Now he had no other choice but to reluctantly agree with Yang Chen.

Upon hearing twenty thousand spirit stones, Yang Chen’s mouth curled up, and he turned around, “Thank you, Elder Liu.”

He also sighed in his heart.

Helpless, with scant resources, even a few thousand spirit stones needed to be saved. He couldn’t afford twenty-five thousand spirit stones, as it would exhaust all his spirit stones.

Elder Liu was somewhat displeased, but he still took out the Ageless Flower,

“Can the Young Master pay the spirit stones now?”

Yang Chen handed over twenty thousand spirit stones as requested.

This made Elder Liu carefully count the spirit stones. Seeing that the amount was sufficient, he finally showed a happy expression, “The Ageless Flower now belongs to Young Master.”

Yang Chen looked at the Ageless Flower in his hand and gently smiled. He was about to leave when suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and his expression grew cold.

That’s because, at that moment, there were suddenly more people in the Trading Association.

Counting them, there were dozens of people, at least.

These dozens of people entered the Trading Association one after another, instantly focusing their souls on him. Judging by their expressions, it was clear these people had malicious intentions.

Elder Liu obviously noticed it too. Seeing these people’s intentions, he stepped forward, “What do you all mean? Our Longteng Trading Association is not a soft persimmon for anyone to knead. If you want to cause trouble, please go elsewhere. Otherwise, don’t blame our Longteng Trading Association for being impolite!”

As soon as these words fell, Elder Liu suddenly emitted an astonishing Ling Wu Realm Peak qi.

The middle-aged man in the lead wore a Daoist robe and sneered, “You dare to meddle with our Ming Emperor Sect affairs? A mere Longteng Trading

Association elder, don’t you think you’re tired of living?”

After speaking, the man emitted an imposing Half-step Yuan Martial Realm qi.

This qi instantly spread out, causing Elder Liu’s face to pale suddenly.

“You, you are from the Ming Emperor Sect!” Elder Liu’s eyes widened, his voice trembling as he realized the identity of these people.

The shopkeeper was also frightened.

Elder Liu was somewhat more calm, “The esteemed Ming Emperor Sect members, our trading association is only a small business. We have never offended the Ming Emperor Sect. What do you…?”

“Don’t worry, we have no interest in your Trading Association. We came here to capture someone. It’s not your matter, just get lost!” The Daoist-robed elder waved his hand.

There was no one else in the Longteng Trading Association at the moment. Even if Elder Liu was stupid, he knew who these people were targeting.

How could a small trading association like his interfere when the Ming Emperor Sect wanted to capture someone?

Even the MO City City Lord Mansion would have to give face to the Ming Emperor Sect!

Realizing this, Elder Liu sighed bitterly, took the shopkeeper without a word, and left.

“Have the formation array set up, and do it quickly. Make sure the City Lord’s Mansion doesn’t lose face.” The Daoist-robed elder ordered.

“Elder, it’s already set up. There’s no way any sound or movement will get out.

From the outside, this Longteng Trading Association still looks like the Longteng Trading Association.” The Ming Emperor Sect disciple chuckled, then locked his gaze on Yang Chen, “Is this little guy the Yang Chen?”

Yang Chen had his hands behind his back, sensing the changes around him.

Rainbow’s voice transmission echoed in his mind, “Young Master, this is the

Soul Locking Array Method. These people use array plates to set up the array. The Soul Locking Array Method can completely block sound and even True Qi.

The inside of the formation and the outside world are completely separate!”

Yang Chen had already noticed this. At least for now, the Longteng Trading Association had completely changed, with flowers, plants, and trees all around. It was clear that he was now surrounded by the formation array.

Thinking of this, Yang Chen said expressionlessly, “The Ming Emperor Sect is really generous. In order to kill an insignificant Ling Wu Realm young man like me, you’ve put in so much effort. A Half-step Yuan Martial Realm, and even using the array plate formation, you really went all out!”

His words were followed by a cold expression on his face.

They clearly had no intention of leaving him any way out..
