One sword cheat

Chapter 9 Selling Luo Qi Pills

"Ding-dong~"

As the phone notification sounded, Su Rentong, inside a wooden house in Tianshi Cave, sharpened his gaze and picked up the phone with a cold smile.

She wanted to see just how hysterical Chen Ren could be; he was probably already driven mad with jealousy.

There was no way around it; she was just that talented. She had defied all opposition to choose Shangqing Palace.

Shangqing Palace was very famous, and its integrity was recognized throughout the cultivation world; it's just a pity...

No matter how noble one's character is, it's all for naught without money. She was too naive back then.

Zhang Yunqing is such a rigid woman.

They wouldn't even give me a single Luo Qi Pill, but now that I've become a disciple of the Celestial Master Cave, they've given me a Luo Qi Pill as a gift!

She regretted it deeply; she should have chosen the Celestial Master Cave earlier, otherwise she wouldn't have been stuck at the fourth level of Qi Condensation for so long.

Once she breaks through the fifth level of Qi Condensation and releases her spiritual energy, she will be able to begin cultivating magic. At that time, she will definitely seek revenge.

After breaking through to Qi Refining, quietly developing, and then establishing a foundation, he will settle accounts with Zhang Yun!

She will never forget this grudge!

But after picking up her phone and seeing the content, her smile grew even colder, even tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Heh, you've already given up so quickly. I thought you had a lot of backbone."

Su Rentong thought for a moment, then sent a message: "The holiday ends in ten days. There will be fewer people after May Day. See you at Longyin Waterfall on the back mountain."

Tianshi Cave, Shangqing Palace, and other places are all located on Qingcheng Mountain. The sound of the Longyin Waterfall on the back mountain can block out a lot of noise.

Su Rentong decided to collect some interest first; she wouldn't be satisfied without breaking Chen Ren's leg!

Whenever I think of his face that day, I feel so angry that I can't even concentrate on my cultivation.

Little did he know, Chen Ren, on the other end of the phone, sneered after seeing the message.

I'm not afraid of her getting ready, I'm afraid she won't come.

I took another look at my sword-drawing value.

522 points.

That should be enough. If a real danger occurs, I can spend my sword-drawing points to break the limit and cut her back to the fourth level of Qi Condensation with one sword.

Even if she has the strength of 400 jin at the fourth level of Qi Condensation, she will still have the strength of the second level of Qi and Blood. Martial cultivators will still be better than immortal cultivators in terms of resistance in the early stages, so she can definitely outrun them.

The second Luo Qi Pill has arrived!

Meanwhile, inside the Shangqing Palace, Zhang Yunqing was slowly sipping tea...

Beside her stood Wenren Yu, a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Celestial Master Cave.

Wenren Yu looked at least twenty years older than Zhang Yunqing, appearing to be in his early fifties, but he spoke very cautiously and dared not put on airs in front of Zhang Yunqing.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I really don't understand why you gave that girl to us and even spent your own money to buy her a Luo Qi Pill."

"Her Luo Qi Dan has mysteriously disappeared. Have they stopped investigating?"

"You should know that pills like Luo Qi Dan are limited in number. You'll have to spend at least three million to get this one before the end of the month."

"You've spent so much, and you're even helping your disciples pay off their debts, another two million in revenue. Now that Shangqing Palace has no one to refine Qi, the resources allocated to you won't even fall to you. Don't you want to bribe the spirit-nourishing herbs to heal your injuries?"

Millions—just a cold, hard number, too far out of reach for ordinary people.

But most people have enough confidence if they have 10,000 yuan in their pocket.

If Chen Ren had a balance of 10,000 yuan, he would dare to ask for an extra egg when he ate fried rice.

"That child has only gone astray temporarily. In fact, how many people can truly uphold their Daoist principles? Under the watchful eyes of the Three Pure Ones, can they stand upright and honest?"

Zhang Yunqing sighed, "Luo Qi Dan has disappeared. I've investigated, but I can't find the reason yet. However, my Shangqing Palace does not teach those who are neither virtuous nor skilled."

"Senior Brother Yunqing, it's not that I, Wenrenyu, am being nosy, but your Shangqing Palace is already struggling to maintain its foothold in the Ancient Realm. If you let go of Su Rentong, this genius, this time, I'm afraid you'll have a hard time finding successors in the future."

Wenren Yu sighed, "However, I am still grateful for your kindness. Shangqing Palace lives up to its name. This is the third level of the Overlapping Waves Technique for flesh training that I found for you."

"The Wave-Layering Technique is good, it can be called the best foundational technique for water-based martial arts, but the lower three levels are even more expensive, not to mention that breaking through to the next level requires a huge sum of money."

The two said no more, and simply sipped their tea and discussed philosophy.

…………

In order to sell Luo Qi Dan, the first person Chen Ren contacted was Ren Renren.

This girl contributes the most sword-drawing points, earning a lot every day, and she's been stuck between the fourth and fifth levels of Qi Condensation.

If she had more than a million, Chen Ren decided to sell Luo Qidan to her.

But when he inquired, he learned that Ren Renren was living a hard life of using credit cards to pay off other credit cards and borrowing to repay other loans in order to cultivate himself.

"Why are you asking this?" Ren Renren was still too kind-hearted after all: "I went to the outer palace yesterday to help people test their aptitude, and I earned about eight hundred yuan. Do you want to lend it to me?"

[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +15 +15]

She was reluctant to part with her money, but she still asked Chen Ren.

"It's alright, I won't lend you money today. I was just asking out of curiosity."

Chen Ren simply couldn't bring himself to do it; this girl was just too kind.

Luo Qidan is unlikely to give it away, but if he ever has enough money, he'd still be willing to help.

As the second option, Wang Chengxian is a member of the Wang family, so he should be wealthy, right?

Chen Ren turned to knock on his room door, but before he got close, he heard angry shouts and the clattering of a keyboard coming from inside.

"I'm a member of the Wang family, believe it or not, I'll have someone deal with you!"

"Fuck you! If you've got the guts, I'll expose your address. See if I'm real or not, then you're finished!"

"Knock knock knock~"

As soon as Chen Ren knocked on the door, the clattering of keyboards and the shouting of insults in the room instantly disappeared, and you could hear a pin drop.

Wang Chengxian: Sword Drawing Value +15!

Why is that jinx who always asks for money here again?

"Senior Brother Wang, we won't lend you money this time."

Chen Renxian explained his purpose before the latter relaxed his guard and opened the door.

Although this junior apprentice always likes to borrow money, he always keeps his word and doesn't lend money if he says he won't.

"It's so late, Junior Brother, what can I do for you?"

Looking at the muscles that were already bulging on Chen Ren's body, Wang Chengxian secretly sighed that martial arts practitioners were prone to growing bigger, and it seemed that he had even grown a little taller.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to ask, what level has Senior Brother Wang reached in his cultivation?"

So that's what you were asking.

Wang Chengxian's lips curled into a proud smile: "To be honest, although my aptitude is only C below level, my family is quite wealthy, and I have already reached the Great Perfection of the fourth level of Qi Condensation."

Quite wealthy!

Chen Ren's eyes lit up: "So, Senior Brother Wang, are you preparing to break through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation? Did your family provide you with Luo Qi Pills?"

"Uh..." Wang Chengxian's pride froze, and he said somewhat hesitantly:

"The Luo Qi Pill is a treasure that can only be refined by alchemy cultivators who have at least reached the Qi Refining stage. Our Wang family can only get a maximum of three pills per quarter."

"Although my family is rich, that kind of thing can't be bought just by having money. I have to save up honestly if I want to buy it."

"I see."

Chen Ren nodded slowly, then quietly closed the door.

"Junior brother, what are you doing?"

Wang Chengxian was startled. This junior brother was handsome with delicate features and fair skin. Could it be that he had taken a liking to him?

That's true, he's quite wealthy, which girl wouldn't fall for him? But this is the first time for the boy.

But the next second, Chen Ren flipped his hand and took out a pill that looked like a glass bead.

A continuous stream of spiritual energy emanated from above, causing Wang Chengxian's pupils to dilate continuously.

"Luo...Luo..."

He opened his mouth in shock, unable to utter another word.

Where did this junior brother get his Luo Qi Pill from?!

This is definitely Luo Qi Dan, he's certain of it, without a doubt!

He would scroll through his phone hundreds of times every day to see the Luo Qi Dan he had been dreaming of, which was now right in front of him.

This one is worth at least ten years of arduous cultivation!

"For me?" he exclaimed in shock!

"No." Chen Ren put the Luo Qi Pill back.

Wang Chengxian's expression instantly darkened. [Ding: Sword Drawing Value +20!]

Having obtained the sword-drawing points, Chen Ren grinned and took out the Luo Qi Pill:

"Just kidding, senior brother, how much are you bidding?"

Chen Ren stared intently at him, which was actually quite risky, as he couldn't explain the origin of Luo Qi Dan.

However, he needed Wang Chengxian as a lead. Judging from Wang Chengxian's previous attitude of not protecting Su Rentong, he dared to take this gamble.

Based on Master Zhang Yunqing's words and his recent observations, Chen Ren was willing to believe that even if Shangqing Palace wasn't clean, it wouldn't be too dark!
