BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2569 - Chaos
She couldn’t stop gasping when she saw these rare spirit herbs outside. Such precious and rare things could only be seen here. She might not be able to collect them even if she went outside.
“How do you sell these?” She asked, pointing to the two spirit herbs while her gaze was drawn to the other spirit herbs. She could tell they were thousands of years old, but they were so casually placed on the stall that her heart skipped a beat.
How reckless! That such a good thing would be placed so casually and not in a presentable box left her speechless.
“Sell? Haha, we don’t take gold coins here, only barter.” He said this while pointing to the words on one side.
Feng Jiu was stunned for a moment as she read the words above. “What kind of things do you need to trade for items like these?”
The person next to him laughed as soon as she uttered these words, even before the cultivator opened his lips to respond. “As a newcomer, you’d be wise not to exchange those items just yet. Come, I have some internal injury medication. Carry two bottles with you just in case!”
Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows. “What do you mean? Am I going to get beaten up in here?”
“No, but there is someone who is well-known for challenging others. Because you’re new here, you’re certain to be unable to flee.” The cultivator laughed and shook a medicine bottle in his hand.
Feng Jiu chuckled with disapproval. “How about I trade these two spirit herbs for a bottle of sixth-rank medicinal pill?”
“Sixth-rank medicinal pill? No, that won’t do. At least seventh-rank.” The cultivator replied while waving his hand.
“Seventh-rank?”
Feng Jiu’s lips twitched as she stared at the cultivator. “Do you know how many precious spirit herbs it takes to make seventh-rank medicinal pills? Even though the two spirit herbs are precious, they are not any more expensive than the spirit herbs required for the seventh-rank medicinal pills.”
“I don’t want it unless it’s a seventh-rank.”
The cultivator was about to say something when he suddenly acted as if something had gone wrong. He gathered the items from the stall, wrapped all of the spirit herbs in a large piece of cloth, and fled.
Feng Jiu squatted there in a daze, staring at the figure that vanished in the blink of an eye, unsure what was going on.
“Run, the son of the City Lord is here again!” With a loud cry, everyone in the stalls around them put their belongings away and fled. For a while, their eyes were filled with confusion and chaos.
Feng Jiu rose to her feet and turned her head. She noticed a man in a sedan chair lifted by eight people ambling down the street. The sedan chair was completely open on all sides, revealing the man wielding a whip in his hand.
When each whip was thrown out and dropped into the air, a snapping sound was made, and the man locked his gaze on the fleeing crowd, seemingly relishing their terror of him. After a few moments, his gaze shifted to the dazzling Feng Jiu clad in red.
“Stop.” At the command, the sedan chair stopped.
The man leaned on the sedan chair and looked at Feng Jiu who was dressed in red, with a glimmer of light in his eyes…
