Xiao Lingyu shook his head and said, "Brother Mi, there's no need to go through so much trouble. During our trip to the Lost Islands, we obtained many treasures in addition to the sea beasts' Life Pearls. If we sell these things, we won't have to sell the Moon Crystals and the Eight Faced Nirvana Flame Sealing Array."
Previously, in front of the manager, Xiao Lingyu and Miling didn't mention that they found many treasures in the Lost Islands. Now that the manager wasn't by their side, they naturally didn't have to worry too much.
"That's fine."
Miling nodded and said, "Then let's go to Dragon Head Peak first."
It took them nearly a day to reach Dragon Head Peak, then they wandered around Dragon Head Peak for another five days before the three of them went to Danxiang Peak.
The Danxiang Peak had countless stores that sold pills and elixirs. At the same time, there were also many stores that bought various grades of herbs and Life Pearls. Being in the Danxiang Peak, one could clearly smell the fragrance of pills and elixirs, giving one a comfortable feeling.
Danxiang Peak was also one of the most prosperous and lively districts in Floating Cloud City. After all, pills were essential consumables for cultivators.
Injuries required medicinal pills to heal, and cultivation also required various special medicinal pills to increase the success rate. Needless to say, there were many medicinal pills with special effects that would cause cultivators to scramble like a flock of ducks.
There were many shops that sold various grades of Life Pearls, but after going through more than ten shops, they didn't find a single Nirvana Soul Stage moon attribute Life Pearl.
After wandering around Danxiang Peak for a full ten days, the three of them finally found a shop that sold Nirvana Soul Stage moon attribute Life Pearls. However, the shopkeeper of the shop offered a high price of 26 million Yang Crystals.
During the five days on Dragon Head Peak, Xiao Lingyu sold a lot of magic treasures and cultivation methods that he, his wife and friends didn't need. He also sold a lot of precious herbs and various grades of sea beasts' Life Pearls at Danxiang Peak. In addition to the preparations before coming to Floating Cloud City, he only had a total of 22 million Yang Crystals.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any Nirvana Soul Stage moon attribute Life Pearls here?"
Just as Xiao Lingyu and the other two were hesitating, a cultivator had appeared at the counter of the shop at some unknown time. He stood still and asked straightforwardly.
"I have one."
The white-haired old shopkeeper nodded.
"I'll take it, how many Yang Crystals?" The newcomer was very straightforward.
"Twenty-six million Yang Crystals," the old shopkeeper replied.
The person did not try to bargain. He immediately tossed a storage pouch onto the counter and said, "I'm in a hurry. Give me the Life Pearl."
The old shopkeeper didn't touch the storage bag. Instead, he pointed at Xiao Lingyu and said, "I'm sorry, but this fellow daoist is also interested in this Life Pearl. He'll come first. If he pays, then this Life Pearl will belong to him. If he doesn't want it, then I'll sell it to you."
"Fellow Daoist, do you want it?" The person asked Xiao Lingyu.
"Yes!" Xiao Lingyu replied firmly.
"I can see that Fellow Daoist hasn't reached the Nirvana Realm, so you don't need this Life Pearl. Why don't we make a deal? I'll give Fellow Daoist one million Yang Crystals, and Fellow Daoist can let go of it?" The newcomer proposed to Xiao Lingyu with a very sincere look.
"Alright!"
Without waiting for Xiao Lingyu to speak, Miling, who was next to him, agreed.
Earning one million Yang Crystals without spending any effort. Such a good thing was not easy to come by.
Although a Nirvana Soul Realm moon attribute Life Pearl was difficult to find, it could definitely be found in Floating Cloud City. Moreover, the price of this shop was too high. The three of them couldn't take out so many Yang Crystals in such a short time, so Miling agreed without hesitation.
The newcomer didn't dawdle. He immediately took out another storage pouch and stuffed it into Xiao Lingyu's hand.
Xiao Lingyu was very suspicious because he never believed that a pie would fall from the sky. Although his luck had always been good, it wasn't good to this extent.
"Eh?"
The newcomer suddenly exclaimed strangely, then pointed at the jade box containing a Nirvana Soul Realm moon attribute Life Pearl and said, "This Life Pearl has been preserved for too long. The quality is too poor. I don't want it anymore!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the newcomer put away the storage pouch he had thrown on the counter, then reached out to Xiao Lingyu and said, "I'll give you this Life Pearl. The deal is not done. Return my one million Yang Crystals to me."
Xiao Lingyu wasn't someone who liked to take advantage of others, so he immediately returned the storage pouch in his hand to the newcomer.
Unexpectedly, after the newcomer took the storage pouch, he frowned and said angrily, "Why are there only two hundred thousand Yang Crystals left?"
At this moment, Xiao Lingyu had already guessed that this guy was here to blackmail him. He couldn't help but sneer and said, "You should know very well how many Yang Crystals there were originally in this pouch. It's better if you don't show off your tricks. We're not three-year-old children."
"You say I'm trying to trick you? When you took the storage pouch just now, why didn't you say that there were less than one million Yang Crystals in it? Now you've taken away eight hundred thousand Yang Crystals and you're still saying I'm trying to trick you? How preposterous! "The newcomer said with conviction.
Just now, Xiao Lingyu had indeed glanced inside the storage pouch and found that there were indeed mountains of Yang Crystals inside, so he didn't say anything. He also didn't really count how many Yang Crystals there were inside.
"I didn't touch a single one of your Yang Crystals. It's better if you don't make trouble here." Xiao Lingyu's expression didn't change.
"You said you didn't touch it, so you didn't touch it? If you didn't touch it, did the Yang Crystals inside disappear by themselves? "The newcomer questioned.
At this moment, Miling also realized that the newcomer was clearly trying to blackmail him and couldn't help but regret his decision just now.
After all, Miling was a cultivator who climbed up step by step from the bottom and hadn't climbed too high. A cultivator like him only wanted to live a stable life and didn't want to cause trouble. When he encountered trouble, it was inevitable that he would be a little timid, so he said to Xiao Lingyu, "Forget it, give him eight hundred thousand Yang Crystals."
It was better to avoid trouble. After all, he didn't lack eight hundred thousand Yang Crystals at the moment.
Hearing Miling's words, the cultivator's eyes suddenly lit up, showing a bit of expectation.
"What a joke! The more easily we compromise, the more we will indulge the arrogance of such a treacherous villain! "
Xiao Lingyu's face suddenly darkened, and he angrily scolded the cultivator who looked as thin as a monkey, "Under the bright sky and in the vast city, Your Excellency is a dignified seven feet tall man. How could you do such a thing? You really wasted many years of hard work to reach your current level!"
After all, he was once an expert whose might had shaken the world. He was even said to be the ruler of the world when he was on the Heavenly Saint Island in the Divine Realm. He was invincible. When Xiao Lingyu was angry, he naturally had the dignity of a superior. Even though his aura did not fluctuate, it still formed a kind of expert's aura that made people feel stifled.
After all, the thin cultivator was from his own family and knew his own situation. In the face of Xiao Lingyu's pressure, he naturally felt a little guilty and avoided his eyes.
"Humph! You took my eight hundred thousand Yang Crystals and still don't admit it. Just you wait, I'll go find the city guards to arrest you now! "
After saying a few words, the thin cultivator slipped out of the shop and quickly disappeared.
At this moment, the old shopkeeper behind the counter clearly showed some disappointment on his old face.
"If I'm not wrong, shopkeeper should already know that scoundrel from just now, right?" Xiao Lingyu turned to the old shopkeeper and asked.
His eyes narrowed, and his gaze was like a knife. Even if the old shopkeeper's cultivation was in the Nirvana Realm, he didn't show any weakness.
In any case, in this Floating Cloud City, as long as the cultivator's cultivation wasn't in the Celestial Realm, unless they were deliberately courting death, they wouldn't dare to make a move here.
"I don't know him."
Although the old shopkeeper's expression returned to normal, he still lowered his head.
"Shopkeeper should know that that guy definitely won't go find the city guards. Of course, there are some things that everyone knows in their hearts, and there's no need to investigate further. After all, we weren't fooled just now. "
Xiao Lingyu smiled indifferently, and the cold expression on his face disappeared. He said again, "Shopkeeper should be able to state the real price now, right?"
"Twenty-one million and five hundred thousand Yang Crystals, the lowest price."
The old shopkeeper replied, but in his heart, he was thinking that a young cultivator who hadn't reached the Nirvana Realm and could take out so many Yang Crystals must have an extraordinary background, and he couldn't offend him too deeply.
"That's an acceptable price."
Xiao Lingyu took out the storage pouch that he had prepared earlier and threw it on the counter, saying, "Shopkeeper, please count it."
The old shopkeeper's divine sense entered the storage pouch, and after counting for a while, he nodded and said, "Not bad, not a single piece is missing. This Life Pearl is yours."
Xiao Lingyu closed the jade box, added some restrictions, and then led Miling and Ling 'er out of the shop.
"Brother Xiao is still the best!"
After leaving the shop, Mi Ling praised from the bottom of his heart.
Xiao Lingyu shook his head and said, "It's not about whether he's the best or not, it's just that I can't swallow my anger. We may not be the strongest in the World of Immortals, but we can't be bullied by any random person!"
"That guy is following behind us." Ling 'er suddenly said.
Xiao Lingyu and Miling turned to look at the same time, and really saw a lean figure hiding in a shop.
"He's really haunting us!" Miling said angrily.
"Haha, the King of Hell is easy to deal with, but the little ghosts are hard to deal with!" Xiao Lingyu laughed.
"What do you mean?" Miling didn't understand.
"Nothing, it's just a saying from my hometown." Xiao Lingyu replied.
Now that the most important task in Floating Cloud City had been completed, and the shopkeeper didn't have much time, everyone naturally didn't want to delay any longer, and had the thought of returning.
"There's no rush to go back, let's get rid of that guy first. Although he's a scoundrel, he's not weak either. If he follows us out of the city and attacks us outside, we'll be in trouble."
Xiao Lingyu then led Miling and Ling 'er to quickly walk around Danxiang Peak, squeezing through the crowds of cultivators, and then constantly changing directions in the crisscrossing streets.
After walking around for two full days, they finally couldn't see the lean cultivator's figure behind them.
