I Am the Fated Villain -
Chapter 534: Reunite; Another One That Wants to Shoot Above His League
Kun Wu City was not far from Mount Kun. As long as one looked from the city wall, one could see a mountain range shrouded in chaotic fog. Towering over the clouds, it was magnificent and majestic.
It was misty there. One could not see clearly at all. It was more like an ancient land that had existed since the beginning of the world. It was mysterious and vast.
Even from a long distance away, a terrifying pressure that made one's heart tremble could be felt, and it was enough to shake one's soul.
Streaks of divine lights or divine rainbows swept across the sky and landed from the distant world. They rushed to Kunwu City.
These days, too many big shots had come to Kun Wu City.
One could even hit an elder of an Imperishable Sect with a stone thrown in the city.
Many practitioners even sensed the fluctuation of some powerful Doctrine Attainment Artifact. It flashed in Kun Wu City. It was really scary.
Those who had come to help the Ji family even brought Doctrine Attainment Artifacts to attack Mount Kun.
Such a move was so rare that it shocked the whole world. It was rare to see such a thing in the past few eras.
The Upper Realms had sent troops to attack the Ten Desolation Fields, but that was the power of a whole Realm. Now they were facing Mount Kun, a forbidden land for life.As to whether there were any supreme creatures in Mount Kun, it had always been a mystery.
Because none of the practitioners or creatures who had entered Mount Kun had come back alive.
If they could save the Ji family's ancestor this time, they would break the precedent.
At this moment, in a stone gambling den in Kun Wu City.
A young man in disguise was with a monk. He glanced at the stones from time to time, as if they were discussing something.
The young man was good-looking. He was tall and straight. He had an air that was totally different from others.
As for the monk beside him, although he looked kind and amiable, he gave off an uneasy feeling.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, you are a Divine Origin Master's descendant. You should know what is hidden in these strange stones, don't you?"
The two were Jiang Chen and Monk Pudu.
The one who spoke was Monk Pudu. He said with a smile. When his eyes swept over the many strange stones in the stone gambling den, there was a gleam in his eyes.
Jiang Chen looked natural and calm. Nodding, he said, "Of course."
The general trend of heaven and earth, the evolution of mountains and rivers, and so on were all within the scope of the Creation Immortal Boat's deduction and exploration.
Although he could not directly see what was hidden in those strange stones, he could not directly see through them.
However, he could sense the rarity of the items within.
Not to mention that during this period of time, he had become more familiar with the cooperation between him and the vessel spirit. He could even activate part of the vessel's power.
The stone gambling den in front of him seemed to be tailor-made for him.
"That's good. I'll be in charge of buying the raw gemstones. Mr. Jiang Chen, you'll be in charge of the selection. Mr. Jiang Chen, you and I will share it equally. "
"What do you think?"
Monk Pudu could not help but say with a smile after getting Jiang Chen's assurance. It was a stark contrast to his amiable image.
Jiang Chen didn't hesitate at all. He nodded and agreed right away.
He and Monk Pudu were old acquaintances. Naturally, he wouldn't doubt Monk Pudu's character.
Of course, there was also another layer of relationship. He was indeed embarrassingly short of money now, and most of his money had been used to purchase cultivation resources.
And the raw gemstones here were very expensive. Since they were mined near Mount Kun, they were much more expensive than the raw gemstones in other ancient cities.
Then the two squeezed past the practitioners in front of them. They walked up to the taller pavilion of the stone gambling den.
Monk Pudu was obviously a regular customer of the stone gambling den. He knew the raw gemstones in the lower pavilion were actually from the periphery of Mount Kun. Very few of them were precious.
Soon, the two arrived at the third floor of the pavilion. It was quite spacious and full of colorful fog. It was a totally different world. The raw gemstones placed everywhere were also emitting colorful lights.
Some of the raw gemstones were even vibrating.
The practitioners here were much better than those on the lower floors in terms of temperament and cultivation. Apparently, they had great backgrounds.
Jiang Chen even saw many disciples of the Imperishable Sects. Shrouded in brilliant lights, they looked extraordinary.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, feel free to choose. Choose whichever one you like."
Monk Pudu showed a smile after arriving here. Apparently, he trusted Jiang Chen a lot.
Jiang Chen did not waste time. His eyes were shining. He was talking to the weapon spirit of the Celestial Boat of Fortune in his mind while looking for the raw gemstones here.
"Lil Chenzi, choose that one. Yeah, the biggest one in the center …"
The weapon spirit of the Celestial Boat of Fortune urged him.
Jiang Chen nodded. He laid his eyes on the biggest primordial stone in the center of the third floor. It was as big as several people's arms. It was uneven and had many lumps on it. Compared to the other primordial stones, which were shining brightly, it looked much worse than the others.
"I want this one," Jiang Chen said calmly. He pointed at the raw gemstone without any hesitation.
Hearing his words, many people here turned their attention over, and their expressions were somewhat strange.
They had glanced at Jiang Chen and Monk Pudu when they had come in. They did not know them, so they did not pay much attention to them.
They had thought it would take them a while to choose, but Jiang Chen chose the biggest raw gemstone after only one look.
This shocked them a little, and then they couldn't help but laugh.
In their eyes, this was more than a little stupid.
He was like a layman who didn't know anything.
"Where did this fool come from? Did he think he could get something good from the biggest one?"
"Even Elder Mo shook his head and said he could not see through that raw gemstone. I can't believe he wants to buy it."
Some people could not help but shake their heads in a sarcastic manner.
Elder Mo was a famous Original Master in the nearby stone gambling den. He had great attainments, but even he could not see through this raw gemstone.
As a result, this raw gemstone had gradually become an object that no one cared about. It had been sitting there for several years.
"Young master, are you sure you want to buy this one?"
However, the shopkeeper in charge of this place was pleasantly surprised.
However, no matter whether Jiang Chen understood it or not, in his eyes, Jiang Chen was a fool who had sent himself to his doorstep. How could he not rip him off?
This raw gemstone had been sitting there for so many years, but no one had ever asked about it. That day, a fool had finally come.
"Of course," Jiang Chen said calmly. Jiang Chen said calmly. He looked calm and indifferent, as if he wasn't surprised by the crowd's reaction.
"How many spiritual stones?" Monk Pudu was puzzled, too, but he trusted Jiang Chen very much. He took out his Sumeru Ring directly.
"300,000 spiritual stones," the shopkeeper said, smiling.
Jiang Chen showed a sarcastic look when he had seen the shopkeeper's expression. He thought to himself, You'll cry later.
Monk Pudu agreed readily. He took out 300,000 spiritual stones to buy this raw gemstone.
"Young master, let's make a deal. Once you buy it, no matter what you get from it, it will have nothing to do with our stone gambling den. Don't regret it."
The shopkeeper was worried Jiang Chen would regret it, so he explained to him "kindly."
"Cut the crap. Cut it now."
Jiang Chen said calmly. He looked impatient.
Seeing this, the rest of the people gathered around immediately. They looked interested. They hadn't expected Jiang Chen to really buy the stone.
This guy looked not only stupid, but also rich.
Although there were many disciples of big sects here, not many of them could afford 300,000 spiritual stones.
"300,000 spiritual stones … tut, tut, tut …"
"If he gets nothing, he'll cry later."
Many people watched with interest and a hint of mockery.
Then, the cultivator in charge of cutting the stone carefully peeled off the layers of stone on the surface of the Origin Stone. A mysterious fluctuation suddenly filled the pavilion.
Everyone's expression changed slightly at this moment. They were no longer as casual and contemptuous as before.
Some old men, including the shopkeeper, even looked over seriously.
In the next moment, a rich crimson light suddenly burst out from within, accompanied by an aura that made one's pores open up.
"That's … Blood King Ginseng …"
"It's at least a million years old …" someone exclaimed, opening his eyes wide.
A million-year-old Blood King Ginseng was a divine herb that even Prospective Supreme Venerables coveted. It was extremely rare. It was worth at least a million spiritual stones.
The shopkeeper's expression changed slightly. He found it hard to believe. Although he did not cry, he felt sad.
"300,000 spiritual stones for a million-year-old Blood King Ginseng. It's not a bad deal."
She begged for fresh flowers.
Jiang Chen said calmly. He shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, people in the stone gambling den did not dare look down on Jiang Chen anymore.
However, some people were still not convinced. They thought Jiang Chen was just lucky.
"Eh? It's Blood King Ginseng. Did someone cut it out here?"
At this moment, a few young men and women walked over from the pavilion. They looked extraordinary. They had a Doctrine Charm. Their clothes were embroidered with the symbol of the Palace of Heavenly Immortals.
It was a young woman who spoke. She was very pretty. Her hair was as long as the clouds. Her skin was fair and smooth. Her legs were longer than average women's. Wearing a white dress, she looked cold and otherworldly, like an otherworldly fairy.
Jiang Chen's body stiffened when he heard the familiar voice. The calm expression disappeared from his face.
He looked back in disbelief. He laid his eyes on the young woman walking over from the pavilion.
Ruoyin?
Why was she here?
Jiang Chen was excited. He was trembling slightly. He had not expected to run into Xiao Ruoyin here after so many days.
However, since he had changed his appearance, Xiao Ruoyin would not recognize him.
Jiang Chen was a little disappointed, but he calmed down. He knew it was not the right time to meet Xiao Ruoyin.
"Do we know each other?"
Xiao Ruoyin felt that the young man who was staring at her seemed to be somewhat familiar, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
..... ...
"No. This is the first time I've seen you, fairy," Jiang Chen said, shaking his head, smiling.
Xiao Ruoyin did not care about this. Laying her eyes on the Blood King Ginseng in Jiang Chen's hand, she asked, "Did you cut this Blood King Ginseng?"
She remembered her master, Yan Ji, was a Prospective Supreme Venerable. She supposed the Blood King Ginseng would be useful to her.
"Yes. We hit it off at first sight. If you want it, I can give it to you as a gift. "
Jiang Chen said with a smile, as if the Blood King Ginseng in his hand was a common cabbage.
He could tell Xiao Ruoyin wanted the Blood King Ginseng very much.
At such a critical moment, he was going to give the Blood King Ginseng to Xiao Ruoyin without Monk Pudu's permission.
In his opinion, Monk Pudu would not care about such things.
Many people on the third floor turned pale. After all, this was a Blood King Ginseng, which was worth more than a million spiritual stones.
Jiang Chen was going to give it to a woman he had just met?
Although this woman was so beautiful that she did not look like a woman from the human world.
Monk Pudu also frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything at this time.
He felt like he had seen Xiao Ruoyin before.
Jiang Chen seemed to have been paying attention to this woman when they were in the Great Void Divine Tomb.
So the two were old friends. However, since Jiang Chen had changed his appearance, Xiao Ruoyin could not recognize him.
"…"
Xiao Ruoyin was also surprised that this somewhat familiar man was going to give the Blood King Ginseng to her directly.
His intention was too obvious.
She frowned slightly. With her current status in the Palace of Heavenly Dao, of course she could afford the spiritual stones to buy a Blood King Ginseng.
"Young master, I appreciate your kindness, but I can afford the spiritual stones to buy a Blood King Ginseng."
"Just state your price," Xiao Ruoyin said in a cold voice, shaking her head to refuse him.
Only then did Jiang Chen realize what he had done was a little too abrupt. He touched his nose, embarrassed.
"Tut, tut, tut. Another toad lusting after a swan. I advise you to take a piss and look at yourself. Don't even think about it."
"Apprentice Sister Ruoyin is with Young Lord Changge."
Seeing this, the young men and women behind Xiao Ruoyin could not help but burst into laughter. They spoke in a sarcastic tone. Apparently, this was not the first time they had seen such a scene.
"Don't talk nonsense. If Young Master Gu hears this, he'll probably laugh at my wishful thinking."
Xiao Ruoyin blushed. She could not help but roll her eyes at her sibling companions behind her.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen's face stiffened. His face turned pale. He tightened his grip on the ginseng. Ordinary.
