Before Xiao Lingyu could find the next shop, the shopkeeper of the first floor of the Nanhua Treasure Pagoda came over personally.
"Daoist, you must have misunderstood. I don't have any bad intentions. I just want to buy your sand crystals privately," the shopkeeper said with a voice transmission.
"Your price is too low. I'm not selling," Xiao Lingyu replied while walking on her own.
"Daoist, I'll give you 15,000 sand crystals each. I'll take all of them," the shopkeeper said.
"That was the price just now. This price … is no longer possible," Xiao Lingyu shook her head and replied.
"Then what price do you want?" the shopkeeper asked.
"23,000 immortal crystals each," Xiao Lingyu replied indifferently.
"What?" the shopkeeper was stunned. Then, he said with a dark expression, "You're too greedy. You don't even look at who you're selling to! "
"I'm greedy? Let's say that I'm greedy. If you don't pay 23,000 immortal crystals, don't even think about buying a single sand crystal, "Xiao Lingyu sneered.
"Daoist, don't forget that this is the Nanhua City. The Nanhua City and the Nanhua Treasure Pagoda both belong to the Nanhua Immortal Sect. I advise you to know your place," the shopkeeper said with a threatening tone.
"Using power to oppress others? You're talking to the wrong person. "
Xiao Lingyu waved her hand nonchalantly. Then, she turned and walked into a material shop.
The middle-aged shopkeeper of Nanhua Treasure Pavilion followed them in and stood beside Xiao Lingyu the whole time. Xiao Lingyu was negotiating with the shopkeeper of this shop, and the shopkeeper just stood there and said something indifferent.
They were all shopkeepers of material shops, so they naturally knew each other. Moreover, the Nanhua Treasure Pagoda was the biggest material shop in the city. Moreover, the shopkeeper of the first floor was the shopkeeper of the Nanhua Immortal Sect. Therefore, not all the shopkeepers in the city knew him. At least all the shopkeepers of the material shops in the city had seen him before.
Knowing the identity of the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper of this shop was naturally wary. Therefore, the deal with Xiao Lingyu couldn't go through.
None of the merchants in the South Flower City would be willing to offend the South Flower Immortal Sect for a single business deal.
Xiao Lingyu only smiled in response. Then, she left the shop and continued to stroll along the street.
As expected, with this middle-aged shopkeeper following him, no matter which material store Xiao Lingyu went to, no one dared to take his sand crystals.
Since there were only a few dozen Sand Crystals left, Xiao Lingyu was not in a hurry. He leisurely strolled around the city. With others following him, it was not good for him to collect any materials. He just walked around aimlessly, taking it as a stroll.
It wasn't long before a group of city guards blocked his path, and one of them said, "Great Thief Nie Yu, let's see where you can escape to this time!"
This shout came too suddenly, and Xiao Lingyu could not help but be stunned. She scanned her surroundings, trying to see who the city guard was shouting at.
What Xiao Lingyu did not expect was that after he shouted, the group of city guards actually surrounded him.
"Great Thief Nie Yu has appeared again?"
"He's Great Thief Nie Yu?"
"The Great Thief Nie Yu who even stole from the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Great Thieves are indeed powerful. How dare they come to the South Flower City!"
The immortals quickly moved away, but they still surrounded the area curiously. Many of them even pointed at Xiao Lingyu and whispered.
Do they think I'm Great Thief Nie Yu? Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised and frowned.
When Xiao Lingyu saw the sneer on the middle-aged shopkeeper's face, he guessed that this guy was in cahoots with the city guards.
When he was in the Demon Realm, Xiao Lingyu was once forced into a big city. Then, he was surrounded by the city guards and brought to the city guard camp.
That time, someone else had also colluded with the city guards and almost lost his life. However, the situation was completely different this time.
"Nie Yu, I advise you to be sensible and obediently come with us to the city guard camp. The City Lord has always been magnanimous and might even spare your life. If you resist, don't blame us for being merciless!" The city guard who seemed to be the leader shouted at Xiao Lingyu.
"I'm not Great Thief Nie Yu. You've got the wrong person." Although she knew that it was useless to say this, Xiao Lingyu still said it symbolically.
"We might have mistaken someone else, but you're Great Thief Nie Yu. We'll never mistake you." The city guard leader sneered.
"Then do you have evidence?" Xiao Lingyu asked. Although he was surrounded, he looked happy and fearless.
"Evidence? Come with us to the city guard camp, and you'll see the evidence! "The city guard leader said confidently.
"Oh? I'm really curious what evidence you have, so I've decided to go with you. "Xiao Lingyu said with a smile.
As soon as he said this, everyone was surprised. Everyone had guessed many things, but they had not guessed this point.
Even the group of city guards was stunned for a moment.
"Why are you still standing there? Aren't we going to the city guard camp to see the evidence?" Xiao Lingyu reminded the city guards when he saw that they were not moving after taking a few steps.
"Yes, good. Your attitude is good. The City Lord will definitely be lenient."
The city guard leader came back to his senses and signaled for the city guards to continue surrounding Xiao Lingyu. Then, he led the way.
After walking for an hour, they finally arrived at the city guard camp. Along the way, all the city guards looked as if they were facing a great enemy. However, Xiao Lingyu was all smiles, which made the city guard leader feel very uneasy.
Could it be that this guy really had a powerful background?
Suddenly, the city guard leader felt a little regretful. If this guy had a powerful background, it would be hard for him to back down.
After all, this was the Nanhua City, the territory of the Nanhua Immortal Sect. Nothing would happen.
The city guards, who were anxious, brought Xiao Lingyu into the city guard camp and locked him in a secret chamber.
Not long after, the shopkeeper of the first floor of the Nanhua Treasure Pavilion and a city guard expert at the intermediate stage of the Immortal Lord Realm entered the secret chamber.
"Hey, shopkeeper, you seem to be very free today. After walking around with me for so long, you still have the interest to accompany me to see the evidence?" Xiao Lingyu said in a strange tone.
"I advise you to take out those Sand Crystals. If you take them out now, I can still give you 300,000 Celestial Crystals. Otherwise, humph!" The middle-aged shopkeeper said with a cold smile. He looked as if he had Xiao Lingyu under his control.
"Didn't you say that I was greedy? We agreed on 500,000 Celestial Crystals, but after seeing the evidence, the price dropped to 400,000 Celestial Crystals. Now, it's daylight robbery," Xiao Lingyu said with a look of disdain.
"Sir, you must know that this is the Nanhua City," the middle-aged shopkeeper said with narrowed eyes.
"Is the Nanhua City your world?" Xiao Lingyu asked without any change in his expression.
"It's the Nanhua Immortal Sect's world!" The city guard expert at the intermediate stage of the Immortal Lord Realm answered.
"Do you mean that you can represent the Nanhua Immortal Sect?" Xiao Lingyu continued to ask.
"Of course!" The middle-aged shopkeeper said firmly.
"Haha … What a joke!"
Xiao Lingyu laughed. Then, his face darkened and he said, "You're just a shopkeeper and a city guard at the Immortal Lord Realm. How dare you say that you can represent the Nanhua Immortal Sect? You even dare to rob in such a blatant manner. Don't you know the rules?"
After being scolded by Xiao Lingyu, the two guards' hearts sank. They were speechless.
"Sir, are you not going to take out the Sand Crystals?" The middle-aged shopkeeper's face was twisted as he asked viciously.
"What? Are you really going to rob me?" Xiao Lingyu tilted his head and asked.
"Great Thief Nie Yu has committed a heinous crime. The City Lord has ordered us to kill him without mercy!"
The city guard at the Immortal Lord Realm said confidently. Then, he slapped Xiao Lingyu with his palm.
The middle-aged shopkeeper responded. A dagger-like Dharma treasure appeared in his hand, and he stabbed it toward Xiao Lingyu's heart.
Xiao Lingyu didn't move. Although the Immortal Lord Realm guard was suspicious, he still slapped Xiao Lingyu's head.
At the same time, the middle-aged shopkeeper's dagger stabbed into Xiao Lingyu's chest.
Cruel sneers appeared on the two men's faces. Then, their expressions completely froze. This was because the other party didn't move at all. Moreover, there was a disdainful smile on his face.
While the two of them were still in a daze, Xiao Lingyu quickly made his move and slapped the two of them hard on the face.
The two men's faces were imprinted with five fingers. Their heads collided with each other so hard that they felt dizzy. They felt as if there were stars shining in front of them.
"You're only capable of bullying others with your strength."
Xiao Lingyu reprimanded them and walked out of the door.
However, just as he reached the door, he was stopped by a cultivator in silver armor.
"Sir, you injured people in my city guard camp. Do you still think you can leave safely?" The man said with a gloomy face.
"You were also outside the door just now. You should have heard it very clearly. You should know the actual situation better than I do, right?" Xiao Lingyu wasn't too surprised. Even though he sensed that the other party was an Immortal Emperor expert, he still spoke very calmly.
"No matter what, they're still members of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. You injured them in my city guard camp. If I let you leave, the city guard camp and even the Nan Hua Immortal Sect will lose face. So, please stay." The man stared at the two men with a livid face. However, he was still very stubborn.
"They're from the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. Am I not?" Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"You're also a disciple of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect?"
The silver-armored cultivator and the other two men were shocked at the same time.
However, the middle-aged shopkeeper said, "He's definitely not a disciple of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. If he was, why would he come to the Nan Hua Treasure Pavilion to sell treasures?"
"Shut up!"
The silver-armored cultivator scolded the middle-aged shopkeeper. Then, he said to Xiao Lingyu, "It's not a small crime for you to pretend to be a disciple of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect."
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Brother Sect Master."
Hearing the words "Senior Brother Sect Master", the silver-armored cultivator was even more shocked. Those who could address the Sect Master as Senior Brother were all Immortal Emperors. However, he knew all his fellow Immortal Emperors in the sect, but he didn't know this person.
"I just joined. You'll know if you ask," Xiao Lingyu added.
The silver-armored cultivator was shocked and suspicious. In the end, he took out his communication immortal bead …
