New Note: Amusement Little Brat

This was Zhou Qing's first time attending such a gathering, and he kept looking around with curiosity.

Yan Xiaohu, who had been here before, explained from the side, "Besides the Taiqing Sect, the Five Sects also include the Azure Flame Dao Palace, Azure Feather Immortal Sect, Tianji Gate, and Golden Thunder Sect from our surrounding area. Look at those few people, they are from the Golden Thunder Sect."

"This Treasure Exchange Gathering will probably last for about a month. You can exchange items or trade directly with Spirit Stones. Whether you buy something fake or find a bargain, once the transaction is completed, the money and goods are settled."

"Of course, it's not just our Five Sects; members from other large and small minor sects will also come to join the fun. During this time, you also need to be wary of certain thieves, after all, everyone comes with money."

Zhou Qing benefited greatly from Yan Xiaohu's sharing of experience.

"Alright, I need to hurry and set up my stall. Let's see if I can slaughter a few more fat sheep while I'm at it. But Senior Brother still has to remind you, don't buy things easily, there's basically nothing good."

"Of course, there are good things, but they are ridiculously expensive. Just broaden your horizons!" Yan Xiaohu instructed.

Zhou Qing was puzzled and asked doubtfully, "Third Senior Brother, aren't you coming with me?"

Yan Xiaohu gently patted Zhou Qing's shoulder and said earnestly, "Fourth Child, some things can't be learned by listening; you only understand them by experiencing them yourself. This trade fair is actually a form of tempering for you."

"Whether it's finding a bargain, suffering a loss, or even the verbal and psychological sparring with people from other sects, these are all life skills you must possess when you leave the sect in the future. Didn't you say you only have three hundred Spirit Stones? Then go ahead and spend them freely!"

After giving his instructions, Yan Xiaohu patted his shoulder again.

"Good luck, give it a shot, three hundred might turn into three thousand!"

Zhou Qing looked at his Third Senior Brother, who quickly disappeared into the crowd, and felt a sense of solemn respect in his heart.

Don't look at how unreliable Third Senior Brother usually was, but when something serious happened, he possessed an unexpected calmness and decisiveness.

"Thank you, Third Senior Brother!" Zhou Qing bowed gratefully, and then began to wander around.

Meanwhile, Yan Xiaohu let out a long sigh of relief and immediately went to his stall, quickly setting out all sorts of miscellaneous items.

Then, with an expectant look, he began to hawk his wares.

"Fourth Child is still too naive, a couple of sentences were enough to send him away. There's nothing I can do. Based on past experience, everyone has money at the beginning, but in the following days, they'll be short on cash and just look without buying. How could I have time to wander around with you?"

"These days, all the stalls are like mine, there's basically nothing good, it's all just to fool people."

Soon, two female disciples dressed in Azure Flame Dao Palace attire approached curiously, and Yan Xiaohu's interest was immediately piqued.

"Two beautiful Immortal Sisters, you've come to the right place by coming to me. The things at Little Tiger's stall are all genuine. Look at this, this is dragon bone! I finally dug it out from a ruin twenty years ago, just waiting to sell it to someone fated today..."

The stalls were filled with a dazzling array of items, and the crowded people were bustling, a scene that made Zhou Qing sigh with emotion at its popularity.

One must know that this was only the first day, and the entire Five Sects Treasure Exchange Gathering was going to last for a full month.

Zhou Qing twisted his body, squeezing through the flow of people. The surrounding noise, on the contrary, gave him a strange sense of excitement.

However, after wandering for a while, the Silver Dragon Hand cultivation method within Zhou Qing's body actually started to circulate on its own, and at the same time, a strong sense of craving came over him.

Zhou Qing was full of doubts.

The Silver Dragon Hand was the famous divine ability of Grand Elder Duanmu Shu, and its power was considerable. It was just a pity that Zhou Qing had only barely learned a framework of it for now.

Moreover, this technique was extremely difficult to cultivate and would probably take some years to get started.

But what's going on now?

Why is there a reaction?

Zhou Qing began walking straight ahead. As the longing grew stronger, he slowly fixed his gaze on one of the stalls.

The items on this stall exuded an ancient aura: bones, clay pots, medicine bottles, small cauldrons, spirit herbs, and many objects resembling burial items, covered in fresh soil.

This scene attracted many onlookers, who kept pointing and discussing.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man around thirty years old. Judging by his attire, he should be from the Golden Thunder Sect, one of the Five Great Sects.

His aura was restrained, and his cultivation should be similar to Third Senior Brother's. He just didn't know if he was a Core Disciple or a True Disciple.

At this moment, Zhou Qing looked like he was just here to join the fun, his gaze seemingly casually sweeping over the items on the stall. After a moment, his eyes stopped on an inconspicuous bone in the corner.

This bone was as large as an ordinary person's arm, looking very old. Some parts had even begun to rot, emitting a faint smell of decay.

However, the unwashed yellow mud filled it, making it look like it had just been dug out of the ground not long ago.

"What kind of bone is this? Could it be helpful for cultivating the Silver Dragon Hand?" Zhou Qing was full of suspicion.

To prevent the stall owner from noticing anything unusual and raising the price, he pretended to be curious and looked at other things.

"Cough, Fourth Child, did you find anything good?" Just then, a familiar voice came from the side.

Zhou Qing turned his head and saw Yan Xiaohu greeting him with a smile.

He couldn't help but be stunned. Didn't you go set up your stall? You even told me to look around alone...

As Zhou Qing thought of this, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his heart rate accelerated.

Because on Third Senior Brother's head... there was no annotation.

Damn it, Second Uncle!

"What's wrong? Is there something on my head?"

"Yan Xiaohu" touched his head in confusion, but didn't feel anything.

Zhou Qing felt his throat dry. Is this Sun Wukong's Seventy-Two Transformations?

The illusion was too realistic.

From appearance, voice, form, and even eyes, if he hadn't had his cheat, he wouldn't have been able to tell the difference at all.

"N-nothing, Third Senior Brother, how was your harvest over there?" Zhou Qing asked, pretending not to have noticed anything.

"Yan Xiaohu" sighed, "What harvest? There's basically nothing worth looking at. However, you can buy that bone back and try it. It's quite good for scrubbing your back when you bathe."

As soon as he said this, Zhou Qing's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, this old fox also saw that the bone was extraordinary.

However, the people gathered in front of the stall, including the stall owner, felt a chill when they heard about using that rotten bone to scrub one's back.

Why don't you buy it back and make soup with it?

Zhou Qing also pretended to gag, and took the opportunity to move his thoughts, staring directly at "Third Senior Brother".

"Bind Second Uncle!"

Soon, the string of question marks above Second Uncle's head was slowly replaced by golden text—[Amusement Little Brat].

Seeing this, Zhou Qing finally let out a long sigh of relief.

From now on, no matter who you transform into, you won't be able to deceive me again.

But to avoid alerting him, Zhou Qing had to continue playing along. If he were to rashly expose his true identity, how could an old monster who was having so much fun easily give up?

Didn't he even give me the remark [Amusement Little Brat]? He's clearly just using me for entertainment.

What if the other party doesn't understand how he was exposed in front of a junior and decides to perform a soul search? That would be quite troublesome.

Binding the last slot to him, Zhou Qing never expected to gain Heart Insight Points from him. He only hoped that when he wanted to mess with him, he could be more prepared.

Seeing that the other party wasn't leaving, Zhou Qing was worried that the bone would be bought by someone else. After a brief hesitation, he stepped forward and picked up a broken pot to examine it.
