Qi Zixiao: Do You Think I Don't Understand?

Does Sword Seventeen want to buy it with Spirit Stone?

Of course I don't want to.

The sword originally belonged to their own sect, and now they want it back, but they have to pay Spirit Stone? And it's obvious to anyone that it won't be cheap. How could Sword Seventeen be happy about that?!

But that's where the problem lies.

If we don't buy it back with Spirit Stone, this guy will definitely mess things up, and then it will be a real problem.

Various problems will arise one after another. Relatively speaking, which is more important, Spirit Stone or the Top-Grade Dao Artifact, the Cloud Piercing Sword?

Just remember one thing and it will explain everything.

Top-Grade Dao Artifact are priceless, in short supply, and can even be described as extremely rare!

Spirit Stone...

There are many First-Rate Sect sects like the Sword and Sabre Divine Sect, but there is only one Top-Grade Dao Artifact that is so suitable for Sword Master Qiu Mobai.

Moreover, even without considering Qiu Mobai, if one were to encounter such a Top-Grade Dao Artifact artifact flying sword while traveling, and were able to purchase it with Spirit Stone... Sword Seventeen might not hesitate much.

I'm really depressed.

I really don't want to, but that's the problem now, I have to think about it! I really have to get the Cloud Piercing Sword back.

Even if it's just... buying!

"How much do I want...?"

Lin Fan stroked his chin and grinned. "I've always enjoyed making friends, and once we get along well, I often give them lots of nice things."

"So, how about we offer a friendly price, 20% of the market price?!"

"Too expensive!"

Sword Seventeen's face darkened. "Don't be so ruthless! The Cloud Piercing Sword originally belonged to our Sword and Sabre Divine Sect. If you have the means to snatch it, and your skills are inferior, we will accept it."

"But most of the prices are just too expensive!"

"Oh? Then you go ahead." Lin Fan smiled.

"At most 50%!" Sword Seventeen sneered.

"This..."

Qiu Mobai, however, expressed his dissatisfaction. "Uncle-Master, that's too much. In my opinion, we should..."

"Shut up!"

Sword Seventeen was extremely frustrated. "If you hadn't been so out of your mind, wouldn't we be in this mess today?! I'll take charge of this matter. Don't get in the way. You can explain it to your master when you get back!"

"..."

Qiu Mobai was extremely depressed.

But after being scolded like that, he didn't know what to say, so he could only shut his mouth and look on dejectedly.

"Seventy-five percent!" Lin Fan grinned. "This is really a friendly price. Even if we don't make a deal, we can still be on good terms!"

"Fifty percent!!!"

During the bargaining, Sword Seventeen made it clear that he was serious.

"This is not a good thing..."

"How about this, we each compromise, how about 70%?"

"Seventy percent? The leader took three steps back, but you only took one. Is that what you call one person taking one step back? No way, sixty percent!"

"Sixty-five percent!"

Lin Fan did not 'go to extremes'.

If they were to pay the market price of Top-Grade Dao Artifact, even Sword Seventeen would likely go berserk, and it's not impossible that they might even engage in a life-or-death struggle.

therefore...

Knowing when to quit while you're ahead is also a great skill and a good way to play.

The price dropped from 80% to 65%, but for Sword Seventeen, the 50% price he proposed had increased to 65%...

One decreased by 15%, while the other increased by 15%.

Isn't this a case of each person taking a step back?!

"Make a deal!"

Sword Seventeen, his face dark, agreed, "We will use the price of a Top-Grade Dao Artifact that was recently sold in Three Saints City as a benchmark for pricing!"

"Can!"

"Let's go ask."

Lin Fan sheathed his Cloud Piercing Sword, grinned, and patted Qiu Mobai on the shoulder. "Don't get angry, anger will only make you sick and no one can take your place..."

Go to hell!

Qiu Mobai almost couldn't help but curse.

Then...

The three of them left the 'stadium' under the watchful eyes of everyone, and then went to the Auction House to inquire about the price of the most recently sold Top-Grade Dao Weapon.

It's not that Sword Seventeen is stupid; he insists on coming to the Auction House to ask.

He knew the Auction House price would be higher, but what could he do?!

Weapons at the level of Top-Grade Dao Artifact, or simply Top-Grade Dao Weapon, are already extremely rare. Anyone who wants to sell them would want to fetch a high price!

Putting it in Auction House maximizes profits; where else would you put it if not in Auction House?!

Ultimately, the price after the 65% discount was 1.37 billion Spirit Stone.

Seeing this number made Qiu Mobai's eyelids twitch and her heart bleed.

Sword Seventeen was equally frustrated. He had never carried so many Spirit Stone with him before. He had to sell some common pills and materials to gather enough Spirit Stone to give to Lin Fan.

"Give me the sword!"

Once the Spirit Stone were gathered, Sword Seventeen spoke with a dark expression.

Although he was very 'cooperative', his anger had already reached its peak.

Lin Fan had no doubt that if they encountered Jian Shiqi outside the Three Saints City later, Sword Seventeen would definitely attack him immediately, wishing he could kill him.

but...

We're not afraid!

Who knows, ' Lin Fan ' might just disappear after leaving the Three Saints City, so why should I be afraid of you?!

"Sure, sure!"

Therefore, this fellow remained extremely calm, smiling as he summoned the Cloud Piercing Sword again and released himself from control of Cloud Piercing Sword, leaving it ownerless once more.

"Cash on delivery, Karma settled, no debts owed to each other."

Lin Fan threw the Cloud Piercing Sword over, then turned and left.

"Snort!!!"

Sword Seventeen snorted coldly, stared at Lin Fan's back for a long, long time, before throwing the Cloud Piercing Sword in his hand at Qiu Mobai with great displeasure.

"Refine it yourself!"

"Don't lose it again!"

After saying that, Sword Seventeen ignored Qiu Mobai and turned to leave, leaving Qiu Mobai standing there alone, his face turning pale and then red, extremely embarrassed and angry.

In fact, Sword Seventeen was not having an easy time either.

As a powerful figure in the Celestial Platform Realm, when have I ever suffered such humiliation?!

But today, he has to endure it, and he has no other choice.

Have no choice!

Because this is the Three Saints City, we can't make a move inside the city, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble...

Moreover, the Cloud Piercing Sword is indeed extremely important to the Sword and Sabre Divine Sect, since they also have the Cloud Piercing Sword Art, which greatly increases in power when used in conjunction with the Cloud Piercing Sword...

Moreover, Sword Seventeen was actually quite interested in Lin Fan.

It's not that he's fallen for Lin Fan; he doesn't have such strong tastes...

I want to take it back to the Sword and Sabre Divine Sect!

Sword Seventeen is not stupid; on the contrary, he is very smart.

Although giving away over a billion Spirit Stone was supposed to settle the Karma, in reality, I suffered a great loss.

Sword Seventeen believed that Lin Fan was well aware of this.

Under normal circumstances, if I were to encounter him elsewhere in the future, I would certainly kill him to vent my anger!

But if I were to encounter him later, would I not only refrain from helping him, but also act in stark contrast, even treating him very well?!

Wouldn't one's image change instantly?

By then, the difficulty of tricking Lin Fan... I mean, bringing Lin Fan back to the Sword and Sabre Divine Sect for training should be infinitely reduced, right?

Sword Seventeen had a very clever plan.

Simply put, she wanted to take advantage of Lin Fan's feeling of guilt for taking advantage of her.

Then, find a suitable opportunity to amplify this sense of guilt.

By then, it will be much easier to win him over, won't it?

"Lin Fan!"

After reforging the Cloud Piercing Sword, Qiu Mobai's anger reached its peak.

He had a strong urge to confront Lin Fan and settle the score...

However, the gap in strength forced him to silently choose to give up.

"One day, I will surpass you!"

"The humiliation we have suffered today will surely be avenged!"

He's gone.

Even though the Heaven's Chosen Assembly was not yet over, he still chose to leave with his followers, and did not even bother to pay attention to the battles of other prodigies.

It should be noted that such a major battle has many benefits, because the participants are all 'peers', which can bring them a lot of relevant inspiration and help them understand the methods of their peers.

But he resolutely chose to leave, his departure utterly determined.

"How much did you earn?"

at night.

Lin Fan and Qi Zixiao had a 'secret meeting,' and the latter, with a smile on her face, asked a question.

"I think you're becoming a money-grubber!"

"Is there?"

"Yes!"

"So you're a money-grubber, huh? What's wrong with that?"

"No, I like it just the same."

"Pah, who cares if you like it? Come on, let's go drink!"

She pulled Lin Fan to leave, but after taking only two steps, she seemed to remember something, stopped, and solemnly said, "This time, we won't drink the Immortal's Intoxication!"

"... I think drinking two bowls would be quite good!"

"Dream on!"

The next day, early morning.

Qi Zixiao stood up, his eyes flashing with light, and within his body, his nascent soul was beginning to form!

"Amazing!"

Lin Fan sighed, "After Top-up, you've finally restored your divine soul. Although you're only a split soul now, you can cultivate normally, right?"

"Um!"

Qi Zixiao couldn't hide her joy and said, "In a way, I can be considered a complete cultivator."

"At least physically!"

"That's good. Judging from Zhong Feiyu's intelligence, your opponent today doesn't seem to be the type to give up voluntarily. If he only has the cultivation of the Golden Core stage, he will be really hard to deal with."

"Actually, it's quite easy to handle, it's just..."

She opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything more.

How can we handle this?

Just take out the Star Chasing Bow and shoot him with an arrow. Even without a suitable arrow, it should have no problem dealing with cultivators below the Great Ascension Stage.

The problem is, the Star Chasing Bow was stolen from the Three Saints City Auction House...

If we were to use this, wouldn't that just cause trouble?!

What was stolen from the Three Saints City of Man, was used right under the nose of the City Lord?

I've never seen anyone play like this before!

"Let's forget about it."

Lin Fan shrugged. "Come on, I'll give you a burst of True Essence to help you break through. Without damaging your Mortal Body's foundation, you can break through to whatever realm you can."

"This way, even if we encounter a stronger opponent in the future, we won't be unable to cope."

"I said..."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zixiao was speechless and exasperated. "Do you think I know what you're implying?"
