Chapter 438: Trading

Chapter 438 Trading Just as Master Gu said, almost all the weapon-refining sects in the entire cultivation world are gathered here. Other things may be difficult to get, but weapon-refining materials are not a problem at all. If something is missing, one can easily borrow it by sending an elder out to run errands. After gathering all the things, Gu Yanduo hesitated again. The elder beside him saw his worry and said, "I don't know what the situation is at the Star Observatory. If it is really related to the Demon Cult, you can't let it happen, so I'll go." The hesitant Sect Leader Gu made up his mind after hearing this. "He is not worthy of asking you to come here in person. Lian Ni, go and inform him that Shu Daoshan is willing to make an exchange and ask him to come and get it himself." He still hoped to get firsthand access to the secret. "Yes." Gu Lianni naturally took the order and left, and Yuan Yao followed her to run errands. The two arrived at the Mingshan Sect's base and told Shi Chun about the situation. Shi Chun didn't say anything but just one word, "Let's go!" He didn't bring many people with him, just Wu Jinliang, Nan Gongzi and Tong Mingshan. The residence of Shudao Mountain is much larger than that of Mingshan Sect. After all, it is a sect with hundreds of people participating in the competition, so they must provide a larger venue. There are lights scattered among the pavilions and towers, the dark places are dim and the bright places are elegant. Gu Lianni led the way and brought the group to the main meeting hall. People from both sides had met each other before and knew each other.

Of course, Shi Chun was very humble and would nod and bow to greet everyone he met. If he bites someone's flesh and acts arrogantly, it will easily make his own troubles more difficult. He has always been a sensible person. Young Master Nan, who was watching from the sidelines, had a look of mockery on his face, but in his heart he admired this guy. Thinking back to the Sky Rain and Meteor Conference, he had seen it. He killed people in front of the royal guards without mercy, which showed that this guy had no awe of power in his bones. He didn't believe that he had much respect for Shu Daoshan in his heart. But now he behaves so respectfully, which shows that he is indeed a guy who can bend and stretch. Shu Daoshan and his gang did not find it strange that Master Nan came. The purpose of his coming in was to protect Shi Chun and his gang. However, given Master Nan's status and position, they were somewhat surprised that he could provide such close protection. In their opinion, after all, Shi Chun and his gang were suppressed by the new rules and could no longer change the gambling situation. Logically speaking, they were of little use to Master Nan. They didn't believe that there could be any real friendship between Master Nan and Shi Chun, who had such a huge difference in status and position. Interests definitely came first. After some pleasantries, Gu Yanduo waved his hand and said, "Let them count their things." Then an elder threw a Qiankun bag to Shi Chun. Shi Chun grabbed it, looked into the bag for a while, and then handed it to Tong Mingshan beside him, "Sect Master, please count it." He didn't understand these refining materials, and he couldn't even recognize the fakes if he was given them. Mingshan Sect was said to be a refining sect, and the only person who knew about it was the sect leader, so naturally the inventory had to be handed over to Tong Mingshan. The call of "Sect Leader" drew many strange looks from people. They all found that the Sect Leader of Mingshan Sect was quite interesting. In Mingshan Sect, he actually stood aside and was the one who did the work according to orders. It also proved their point once again that the real leader of Mingshan Sect is still Shi Chun. While they were counting, Gu Yanduo did not sit there and wait, asking, "After the transaction, how can I be sure that you will not tell the secret to others?" This is also the key point that must be clarified face to face. But Shi Chun was surprised. He looked back at Gu Lianni standing in the corner, and then turned back and said, "Master Gu, did you have any misunderstanding? Who said that I only sold this secret to Shu Daoshan's family?" When these words came out, it was like thunder. Tong Mingshan forgot to count and looked up at him.

Young Master Nan was stunned, looking at him as if he were a monster. He was worried about him selling the same thing to nine stores and being discovered, and having no way to deal with it. It turned out that this guy was not afraid of that at all, because he had no intention of hiding it at all, so there was no need for him to consider the aftermath. If you didn't tell me earlier, you would have been worrying for nothing. The group of Shu Daoshan was stunned at first, then their faces were filled with anger. Gu Lianni was the first to jump out, pointing at Shi Chun's nose and shouting, "Shi Chun, what do you mean, are you kidding us?" Seeing that he had provoked public anger, and the entire Shudao Mountain seemed to be ready to fight, Young Master Nan quickly stood up and cheerfully clasped his hands and said, "Miss Gu, please be patient. This is business, and it's a matter of willing buyers and sellers. There's no need to get angry." "Lian Ni, step back!" Gu Yanduo shouted. Gu Lianni had no choice but to retreat with a stern face, but she still stared at Shi Chun with an angry look. Wu Jinliang chuckled at an inappropriate time. Gu Yanduo stared at Shi Chun again, "What do you mean?" Shi Chun: "I have to explain this. I am not kidding you. I never told your daughter that this secret was only sold to your family. She misunderstood." Gu Yanduo said expressionlessly: "Secrets cannot be owned exclusively. Do you think it is necessary for us to buy your secrets?" Shi Chun looked back at the pocket of Tong Mingshan's hand and found that the guy was in a daze again. He immediately scolded him, "It has nothing to do with you. Count your money." Well, Tong Mingshan had no choice but to continue counting. Shi Chun then pointed at the Qiankun bag and said, "Master Gu, how many people from various sects died in the Divine Fire Region for this secret? My own life has also been put on the line. You want to buy out this secret exclusively with just this little thing? It's too cheap." Gu Yanduo raised his eyebrows slightly, "Then how much do you want?" Shi Chun shook his head, "I don't want more, I just want the amount in my pocket, and I can sell it to others for the same price." So there is nothing to discuss? Gu Yanduo's face darkened, and he said slowly, "Is a secret that everyone knows still a secret?" Shi Chun: "It's not like everyone knows about it. I will sell it to you ten major sects." Elder Tu suddenly said, "You are taking off your pants to fart, what a waste of time!" Shi Chun stared at him coldly and suddenly asked, "What this elder means is that after I sell it to your family, Shu Daoshan can guarantee that the other nine families will not catch me and interrogate me about the secret method of finding the divine fire?" "..." Elder Tu opened his mouth several times but didn't say anything. But at least it made Shu Daoshan and his group understand why Shi Chun sold the secret to the ten major sects. Thinking of this, Gu Lianni, who had just been full of anger, lowered her head and fell into a state of contemplation. Gu Yanduo added: "I can accept you as my disciple. After you join my Shudao Mountain, other sects will naturally not be able to force you." It is hard to say how others feel about these words, but for the people in Shudao Mountain, they are moved. The head of Shudao Mountain is willing to accept your Shichun as his personal disciple. What a blessing this is! Many people in Shudao Mountain can't even dream of such a good thing. Shouldn't you, Shichun, express your gratitude quickly? However, Shi Chun smiled calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Gu, but I am not blessed enough to bear it. I know I am not cut out for refining weapons, and I don't want to experience the days of being reduced to a bystander in a weapon refining sect. I also killed important disciples from other sects, and those sects may not let me go in the future. I don't believe that Shu Daoshan will always protect me at all costs. It is possible that I will be abandoned at any time. It is safer to hold my own life. I have sold the things to the ten of you, and I dare not spread this secret to anyone else. I believe that none of you ten major factions want more people to know this secret either. Sect Leader Gu, there is no need to beat around the bush. Buying and selling are free, and no one is forcing us. The price is this price, and there are only a few buyers. Do you want to buy it or not? Tell me the truth now. If you don't want to buy it, I will leave immediately and ask the next one." Although he spoke frankly, Gu Yanduo subconsciously raised the corner of his mouth and wanted to show his teeth, because the other party had no right to be so frank in front of him, Shu Daoshan. He really wanted to arrest Shi Chun on the spot and torture him. However, the leader of Xuanji Commandery is already here, and has also sent out a message demanding the person. He, the great Shu Daoshan, actually had no temper towards this guy at this moment.

Combining the events of the Sky Rain Meteor Conference with what happened in the Divine Fire Domain, he now deeply realized that this kid was indeed a tough guy. With his demeanor of looking down on others, on the one hand he was furious, but on the other hand he had a clear sense of benefits and needs. A small ant-like figure could be calm and at ease in front of so many big shots. He would be a talent that could be of great use in his Shudao Mountain. So the idea of ​​recruiting disciples began to be taken seriously, but the other party did not want to join. What could be done to get him to join Shudao Mountain? I don't know what he was thinking of, but his eyes, which were flashing with admiration, suddenly glanced at his daughter Gu Lianni. A thought flashed through his mind, but he gave up in the end. There was no other way. After being taken away by Mulanjin, he didn't know if he could come back alive. What if he was really involved with the devil? If a problem can be solved with money, it is more comfortable to spend money, so he took a long breath and said, "Let's do the deal as you said." Shi Chun: "I declare in advance that I don't know the cause of the secret. I can only tell you the exact origin of the secret. As for whether you can finally solve the secret, it has nothing to do with me. You should think carefully before buying it, so that you won't accuse me of deceiving you later." "What the hell?" Elder Tu was furious when he heard it, pointing at the bag in Tong Mingshan's hand, "Just a piece of information, and you want to sell it for such a large sum?" Wu Jinliang chuckled, and his chuckles were everywhere, regardless of the occasion. Master Nan also looked surprised and doubtful. How could this guy not even know what the secret was? Shi Chun said: "Elder, I think the most valuable thing in the world is the information that is needed." No one present refuted this statement, which was rare, and everyone seemed to be thinking about it. Shi Chun waited for a while and said, "If I were you, I would think this is a good thing. It means that even if other sects know the secret, they may not be able to solve it. Whoever solves it will have the possibility of monopolizing the secret!" The corners of Master Nan's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his beard, and found that Chuntian was better at doing business than him. Seeing that Shu Daoshan and his group were all calculating and slow to respond, Shi Chun said cheerfully, "It doesn't matter if you don't like it. I told you, I won't force you. You don't have to buy it. If this is your sect's decision, then I won't bother you any more. Goodbye!" He clasped his hands and said to Tong Mingshan, "Master, please return the things to them." In front of outsiders, he still maintained a respectful title for the leader of Mingshan Sect. After saying that, he turned and left. Master Nan and the laughing Wu Jinliang also bowed before turning around and following him. Tong Mingshan stepped forward and handed the Qiankun bag back to Gu Yanduo with both hands. Unexpectedly, Gu Yanduo, with a tense face, shouted majestically, "Wait!" Shi Chun and the other two, who were almost at the gate, stopped and turned around to look. Gu Yanduo's eyes fell on Tong Mingshan's face and he said calmly, "Sect Master Tong, have you counted everything? Is there anything missing?" Tong Mingshan, holding something, turned his head and looked at Shi Chun. Shi Chun scolded, "Master Gu is asking you a question." Tong Mingshan felt like he was in a difficult position. He nodded back and forth and explained to both sides: "We have counted, and the number matches the list." Gu Yanduo said calmly: "Shichun, I, Shudaoshan, have given you the things according to the list, and it's time for you to fulfill your promise." After he finished speaking, he swept his cold eyes across the scene and raised his voice a little more, "Those who are not involved, please leave!" So some younger disciples including Gu Lianni left the scene obediently, leaving only a few senior leaders. Shi Chun was also straightforward. He immediately came back, took the Qiankun bag from Tong Mingshan, and handed it to Master Nan. "Brother Nan, I owe you money. I will use this batch of things to pay it off first. I will pay the rest slowly."

"Then I won't be polite." Young Master Nan took the thing with a chuckle. This chuckle actually captured the essence of Wu Jinliang and was on point. It was in perfect sync with Wu Jinliang, and the two of them seemed to be in harmony. Shi Chun then cleaned up his belongings, leaving nothing important behind and handing them all to Wu Jinliang. In the end, he was left with only a Qiankun bag, and told his accomplices to leave, "There are some secrets that you'd better avoid." For Wu Jinliang, he had known the so-called secret for a long time. Chuntian did this to find an excuse to let them take the things away first to avoid them being looted. With the strength of these people, they would get the information and take the things back. By then, they would not even have a place to complain. Little did they know that the two of them were being too cautious. Not to mention whether Shu Daoshan would be so shameless, as long as Shi Chun still held the secret, Shu Daoshan would not dare to take back the things that were given unless he silenced the person in order to prevent the secret from spreading uncontrollably. In short, the three of them left with their things. Shi Chun gave the Qiankun bag to Shu Daoshan, which was really generous of him as he didn't want to take advantage of the situation by even a penny more. Things are indeed different now. In the past, it would have been impossible to return such a valuable item to the other party. Gu Yanduo stared at him and said, "Go ahead." (End of this chapter)
