When Shopkeeper Dong suddenly saw the two magic artifacts, his expression remained calm, but his eyes blazed with brilliance. After testing the two artifacts and putting them back into the stone box, he pondered briefly.
"Fellow Daoist, both of these magic artifacts are top-grade. The sword-shaped one is even a top-grade superior-quality artifact. May I ask how many spirit stones you intend to sell them for?"
Qin Fengming chuckled. "That depends on how many spirit stones Shopkeeper Dong is willing to offer."
Seeing Qin Fengming answer so shrewdly, Shopkeeper Dong sank into thought. After hesitating briefly, he finally spoke.
"Judging by your appearance, Fellow Daoist, you are clearly a man of considerable background. For these two magic artifacts, I can offer at most four hundred spirit stones. What do you think?"
After weighing the pros and cons, Shopkeeper Dong gritted his teeth and named a price.
He already knew what had happened at the auction that morning. The small sword sold there was on par with the artifact before him. If not for the bidding between Old Monster Qiu's direct disciple and the Young Master of Juque Fort, that artifact might have sold for more than four hundred spirit stones.
"Fine. We'll do as Shopkeeper Dong says—four hundred spirit stones."
Before long, Shopkeeper Dong returned carrying a bundle. He placed it on the table, revealing spirit stones of various colors that glittered brightly inside. Qin Fengming swept them with his divine sense and put them away.
"Would Fellow Daoist be interested in looking at some of the other items in our shop? I'm sure there is something that might interest you," Shopkeeper Dong said after putting away the two stone boxes.
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Dong, but I have nothing else to buy, so I won't trouble you any longer."
