The rogue cultivators in the nearby square heard the loud noise, and gathered around. They pointed and whispered.
Ye Chong and the blue-robed middle-aged man's complexion turned ugly. This market was their Jade Water Sect's money tree. If a bad reputation spread, their business would be affected. The Sect Master of the Jade Water Sect wouldn't let them off easily once they returned to the sect.
"Hehe, don't misunderstand. This is a market. It's a place to buy and sell things. Let's decide on the price. This stall owner, how much did you sell those two spiritual materials for? I'll pay double. Can you give them to us? " The blue-robed man next to the white-robed girl chuckled. He stepped forward and said to the one-armed stall owner without looking at Shen Luo.
Shen Luo frowned as he saw this scene.
He had already paid the immortal jades. But, if the stall owner went back on his word, the opposite party could take the opportunity to make trouble.
"This … I'm sorry. I've sold these two spiritual materials to this friend. He has also paid the immortal jades. According to the rules of the market, the money and the goods are settled. So, these two things have nothing to do with me," the one-armed stall owner hesitated for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said.
Shen Luo couldn't help but feel a little respect for the one-armed stall owner as he heard these words.
However, the blue-robed man's eyebrows wrinkled as he heard these words. Then, he turned around and looked at Shen Luo.
"This friend, the two of us are disciples of Mount Putuo. These two spiritual materials are something that Sister Li must have. I'll pay you three times the price. How about you give these two spiritual materials to us?" the blue-robed man said with a smile on his face.
"Disciples of Mount Putuo …" the nearby crowd suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.
The white-robed girl's delicate eyebrows slightly wrinkled. It seemed that she didn't approve of the blue-robed man revealing his master's identity. But, she didn't say anything. Her eyes were fixed on the two spiritual materials in Shen Luo's hand.
The blue-robed man was very satisfied with the reaction of the surrounding people. He looked at Shen Luo with a hint of condescension in his eyes.
"Mount Putuo!" Shen Luo narrowed his eyes.
Ever since Nie Caizhu had been taken away by the woman in palace attire, he had been trying to find out where Mount Putuo was. Unfortunately, he hadn't been able to find anything. Later, in his dream, he had asked Bai Xiaoyun about the origins of Mount Putuo.
Just as he had guessed, Mount Putuo was the Daoist temple of the Southern Sea's Guanyin. Not only that, but it was also an extremely large sect. Under the teachings of the Guanyin Bodhisattva, they cultivated the art of calming the heart and mind, and were proficient in the Five Elements Curse Arts.
Whether it was prestige, influence, or strength, Mount Potala was in no way inferior to Life Transformation Temple.
Although Mount Putuo was an upright sect, Shen Luo didn't have a good impression of Mount Putuo, perhaps because the woman in the palace dress had taken away Nie Caizhu without any room for discussion.
"I'm sorry. I've been looking for these two spiritual materials for a long time. I have no intention of selling them," Shen Luo replied with a smile and flatly refused.
"Your Excellency had best be tactful. Don't risk your life for these two spiritual materials," The blue-robed man's face stiffened as he spoke in a gloomy voice.
Mount Putuo had a lofty status and was revered by everyone in the world. He had always been proud of this. No matter who he met outside, as long as he mentioned the name of his sect, the other party would become respectful and respectful. He hadn't expected that he would be ignored by someone who looked like a Rogue Cultivator today, so he couldn't help but feel angry.
"Oh, does Your Excellency mean that you want to kill me and steal my treasures? The disciples of Mount Putuo are all like this. This one has seen it all. " Shen Luo sneered, deliberately raising his voice, causing the surrounding onlookers to unconsciously speak louder.
As soon as the blue-robed man spoke, he felt that it was inappropriate and regretted it. However, when he heard Shen Luo's sarcastic words, his face turned purple and a blue light flashed from his body.
"Senior Brother Wu, don't speak nonsense!" The white-robed young woman stretched out her hand in front of the blue-robed man and spoke in a soft voice.
The blue-robed man glanced at the young woman. He barely suppressed the anger in his heart and turned his head away.
"Dear Friend, my Senior Brother was talking nonsense a moment ago. Please don't take it to heart. May I know Your Excellency's name and which sect you belong to? "The white-robed young woman turned to face Shen Luo, and curtsied.
"I'm a Rogue Cultivator. I don't belong to any sect. As for my name, it's not worth mentioning," Shen Luo cupped his fists and returned the salute. He naturally wouldn't foolishly reveal his name.
"Since Dear Friend doesn't want to say it, I won't force you. However, I must obtain these two spiritual materials. How about this? I'll use a bottle of 'Meridian Extraction Pill' to exchange with Your Excellency. This pill has the effect of nourishing the meridians. It's a rare elixir for a Fasting cultivator. It's enough to save more than ten years of practice," the white-robed young woman took out a blue bottle and spoke in a crisp voice.
"Meridian Extraction Pill! Junior Sister, this is a precious pill that Master spent a lot of money to obtain from Mount Fangcun. How can you exchange it for these two spiritual materials? "The blue-robed man's face was filled with shock as he hurriedly spoke.
The white-robed young woman ignored the blue-robed man. Her gaze was fixed on the masked Shen Luo.
Shen Luo glanced at the blue bottle and shook his head. "I've already said that these two spiritual materials are things that I've been longing for for a long time. I won't exchange them." His tone softened a bit as he spoke.
After saying this, he didn't want to be entangled with these people. He put the two spiritual materials into his clothes and turned to walk away.
With two rustling sounds, a few blue-robed Jadewater Sect disciples appeared in front of Shen Luo, blocking his path.
"I've heard that the Jadewater Sect's rules are strict. Wanqiu Market has always been fair and reasonable. I didn't think that the real situation would be like this." Shen Luo stopped and looked around with a cold smile. His voice was very loud and spread far and wide, attracting even more people to gather.
The faces of the people blocking his path stiffened as they looked at Ye Chong.
Ye Chong's expression was unsightly. He waved his hand and the people stepped aside.
Shen Luo did not linger. He quickly left the open space where the stall was set up.
He was not afraid of offending the Jadewater Sect, but he would not stay in this dangerous place any longer. He immediately walked towards the market's entrance and soon arrived at the blue door of light.
He hesitated for a moment and looked towards the tavern not far from him.
Xie Yuxin was still in the market. The two of them had agreed to meet at the tavern. It was not convenient for him to meet her now. It would be inappropriate to leave a message for her either. The Jadewater Sect would definitely know about it, and it might even harm her.
"Forget it. I've caused such a big commotion in the market. I'm sure Sister Xie will soon hear about it. Although I'm masked, she's smart and should be able to guess that it's me." Shen Luo thought and stepped into the door of light.
His vision blurred for a moment. When he recovered, he was back in the secluded alley.
Shen Luo did not stop there. He quickly walked forward and found another secluded place. He took off his clothes and burned them.
There were all kinds of strange tricks in the cultivation world. During the conflict in the market, who knew if the other party had left a mark on him? It was better to burn his clothes as a safety precaution.
Shen Luo took out another set of clothes and changed into them. He quickly left Wanqiu City.
He pondered for a moment, then headed towards the Crater Inn.
