An Extra Trip
Liu Yanyan naturally trusted Su Zhan.
"My sister trusts you a lot, so naturally I trust you too."
"You do as you please, I'll go talk to the Shopkeeper."
After saying that, Liu Yanyan got up and left.
After the door closed, Su Zhan directly severed one of the roots of the so-called Nether Smoke Flower, then used his Spiritual Qi to dissolve it, scattering the fragments across the entire Nether Smoke Flower. The golden glow emanating from the Nether Smoke Flower instantly disappeared by one-tenth.
Su Zhan wasn't surprised at all. He could tell at a glance that this thing was fake. If you don't have that kind of eye, you have to use this method to determine the authenticity more directly.
This particular plant has four petals because the Nether Abyss Flower is extremely rare, appearing only once every ten thousand years.
If it's over 10,000 years old, it will have four petals.
The petals are golden on the back, but not on the front, and they don't have roots like the Nether Abyss Flower.
Apart from that, the two appear to be identical.
The reason this plant looks exactly like the real thing is that the roots of a broken Nether Smoke Flower were grafted onto Nether Abyss Flower. The reason its petals have a golden sheen is because it was placed in a high-quality medicinal garden for nourishment.
But it doesn't last long. Over time, the medicinal properties of the roots dissipate, the roots fall off one after another, and the golden color gradually disappears until nothing is left.
It must be said that Flower Pavilion's deception was quite clever.
And it was definitely something they had prepared in advance to trick Liu Yanyan.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have come up with something so realistic at the last minute.
Su Zhan thought it was unlikely that the money was used to fool others.
Anyone who can afford to buy Nether Smoke Flower is definitely not a simple person. Does Flower Pavilion really want to offend someone like that?
Even for the sake of reputation, they wouldn't be so reckless. Therefore, it must be to frame Liu Yanyan. Although Liu Yanyan status and a good older sister, the problem is that Three Treasure Pavilion have already dared to frame her. He doesn't believe it's not aimed at Liu Zhenzhen and the Silent Sect.
The other party is definitely not afraid, or at least not very worried about Liu Zhenzhen finding out.
Of course, judging from the previous behavior of the Shopkeeper of the Water Cherish Pavilion, it seemed that he did not want Liu Zhenzhen to find out. However, Su Zhan felt that this concern was because he wanted to continue to trick Liu Yanyan, and therefore did not want Liu Zhenzhen to know.
It wasn't out of genuine fear, otherwise I wouldn't have done it.
Su Zhan took out the Nether Smoke Flower from his Storage Ring and repaired the roots.
After all, Liu Yanyan still needed to know how terribly wrong she had been. However, the golden color that appeared on it could not be naturally restored by any means.
Su Zhan didn't care anymore; anyway, Liu Yanyan probably wouldn't even notice the difference.
Moreover, normally, when you dig out this fake Nether Smoke Flower, one root falls off every day, and the gold color gradually decreases, so Su Zhan wasn't really affected in any way.
Afterwards, Su Zhan closed the Jade Casket, and soon Liu Yanyan and the Shopkeeper returned together.
"The Shopkeeper said they don't have what you're looking for. How about we try asking around elsewhere?"
Liu Yanyan asked Su Zhan.
Su Zhan nodded.
"Can."
The Shopkeeper also felt it was quite a pity.
Otherwise, they could have made a fortune off of it. It's such a shame they sold it to someone else before.
"This Jade Slip contains List. You can choose ten items, and that should cover the value. If you choose the most valuable ones, you can exchange just one for them."
