When the man heard this, he refused to sell.
"Why is it only worth a hundred gold coins? She spent nine thousand gold coins on an intermediate magic scroll just now. A beginner magic scroll should cost at least a thousand gold coins. How can you cheat her?"
This man was not as simple as he looked. He was not a magician and did not know the exact market price of magic scrolls.
When he had approached the magic shop, he had pretended to observe for a long time until Yun Sheng had sold an intermediate magic scroll at a high price. Only then did he ask.
The owner of the magic scroll was unhappy. He could tell that the man's magic scroll must have come from a shady background.
Opening a magic scroll shop in the Hunter's Citadel was not allowed to embezzle illegal goods. Moreover, the other party was just an ordinary person, yet he dared to question a magician's judgment.
Any magician, even a magic apprentice, knew that there was a huge difference between beginner and intermediate magic.
To advance from a magic apprentice to a magician's servant, one only needed to apply to join a temple and they could learn beginner magic under the guidance of the temple's high priest.
The magic scroll that the man brought over was made of the worst quality animal skin, and it indeed recorded Earth Spikes.
The second beginner magic that Yun Sheng learned was Earth Spikes.
This kind of basic beginner magic was not expensive to begin with. A hundred gold coins was already very fair.
"Go, go, go. If you don't want to sell it, then get out. Don't interfere with my business." Seeing the boss's disdainful expression, the young man was annoyed. However, no matter how angry he was, he did not dare to challenge a magician.
He grabbed the magic scroll and stormed out of the magic scroll shop in a huff.
Yun Sheng saw this and quickly followed him out.
When they reached a secluded area, the man heard someone following behind him and became alert.
"It's you. Why are you following me?" The man turned around and saw that it was the "spendthrift" little girl from the shop just now. He knew that Yun Sheng had a lot of money on her and could not help but have evil intentions.
He wanted to take the opportunity to rob Yun Sheng, but at this moment, Yun Sheng calmly took out her magic scepter and pointed it at him. He could only give up on the idea.
"Brother, can you let me take a look at your Magic Scroll?" Yun Sheng had seen the magic scroll at the counter just now. She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that this coarse-looking magic scroll wasn't as simple as the scroll shop owner had said.
Seeing that the other party was interested in his Magic Scroll, the man hurriedly took out a Magic Scroll and said, "That shop owner's taste is too bad. This scroll must be something good. I spent a lot of effort to get it."
Yun Sheng opened the Magic Scroll and looked at it.
At first glance, it seemed that the magic scroll shop owner's judgment was correct.
It was the skin of the lowest grade of magical beast, and it was impossible for it to be used to record any high-level magic.
The beast blood on it had long dried up and faded.
Yun Sheng touched the magic scroll with her finger, and a golden light flashed through her pitch-black eyes.
A weak, almost imperceptible Mana leaked out from the Magic Scroll.
Yun Sheng felt that this feeling was somewhat familiar. This was the Mana of Darkness.
How could a Magic Scroll have the Mana of Darkness? Yun Sheng thought to herself, but she was sure that this Magic Scroll, at least on the surface, was the most basic Earth Spike Magic Scroll.
"How is it? This is definitely something good. It has at least a few hundred years of history. Look, the animal skin is still in good condition. It hasn't been weathered, and the writing on it is still quite clear. "The man saw some hope from Yun Sheng's reaction.
"Uncle, this is indeed the most basic Magic Scroll. The magic recorded on it isn't very valuable, but this scroll has a very long history. My father likes to collect ancient things. If you are willing, I can buy this scroll for two hundred gold coins." Yun Sheng didn't show too much excitement. As she spoke, she glanced at the man in front of her again.
At the same time, she quietly activated the Dark Magic Soul in her body.
Once the Dark Magic Soul was activated, Yun Sheng's perception of the Mana of Darkness greatly increased.
As she expected, she quickly sensed a large amount of Mana of Darkness from the man's body. It wasn't a good thing for an ordinary person to have the Mana of Darkness on them.
He either received a curse from a Dark Magician, or he believed in some Dark Demonic God.
It was very clear that the man in front of her couldn't believe in any Dark Demonic God. Then there was only one possibility left. He received a curse from a Dark Magician.
Yun Sheng looked at the bottom of his feet. There was still some golden, wet soil.
This kind of soil was most commonly seen on the continent's tombs. Yun Sheng finally understood why she felt the Mana of Darkness on a Magic Scroll.
Grave robber. The man in front of her who was selling the Magic Scroll was definitely a grave robber.
It was very likely that he had robbed the grave of a former Dark Magician and obtained this Magic Scroll.
Yun Sheng's guess was right. This man in shabby clothes was really a grave robber. He specialized in digging and robbing all kinds of graves in the border areas where the border guards were weak.
Just the day before yesterday, he accidentally found a tomb. The tomb looked quite large, but the infuriating thing was that there was nothing valuable in it. There was only a piece of paper that looked like waste paper.
In the line of grave robbers, it was taboo to return empty-handed. He had no choice but to take out that Magic Scroll.
Later on, a fellow with good eyesight said that it was a Magic Scroll and that it could be sold for a lot of money in the market of Hunter Citadel.
He took the Magic Scroll and went to Mount Daoye.
He spent a lot of money on the way here. He thought that it was useless to bring the Magic Scroll back. 200 gold coins was double the price.
"200 gold coins it is." The grave robber sighed and handed the Magic Scroll to Yun Sheng.
"Uncle, if you have time, go to the temple and pray for blessings. You should wash your hands of the business you're doing as soon as possible. Otherwise, if one person suffers, three generations will suffer. "Yun Sheng calmly reminded the grave robber after she received the Magic Scroll. Then, she cast the Levitation Spell and left.
Although tomb raiding was a crime against good karma, it was not a crime that deserved death. The only place that could remove dark magic was the Temple of Dharma. That was all she could do to help.
The grave robber who was counting the gold coins was stunned. Could it be that this little girl had guessed his identity?
He was about to ask when he looked around. The little girl was nowhere to be seen.
Could it be that he had seen a ghost?
The grave robber was so shocked that the gold coins fell to the ground. After a while, he remembered Yun Sheng's words. He picked up the gold coins and ran towards the temple in the city.
