Chapter 507: Chapter 506: Obtaining Materials

Hearing Peter Brown mention a large quantity of Lingcao, the young girl’s eyes revealed a look of surprise and delight. She secretly guessed her commission this time would be substantial and quickly led Peter upstairs, then called someone over.

After a while, a middle-aged woman walked in with a smile and said, "I apologize for the wait."

Peter said, "I have a batch of Lingcao, I wonder if you can handle it?"

"Rest assured, we are the largest auction firm in this sea area, and there will be no problem. I just don’t know what kind of Lingcao they are."

The woman appeared very calm and introduced herself as Asher Chester.

Peter handed over a storage bag and said, "You take a look first."

Asher Chester casually accepted it and looked inside with her Divine Sense. She was shocked by what she saw.

"This!"

Asher Chester originally thought it would be just a few Lingcao herbs, but she never expected that Peter would bring out hundreds of them all at once. What’s more, these Lingcao were the Black Lotus Herbs that were sold at the rival auction firm just yesterday.

"How can there be so many?"

After asking this, Asher Chester realized it was a question she shouldn’t have asked. After all, everyone coming here to sell items doesn’t want others to know their situation, and such inquiries are inappropriate.

Peter smiled slightly and said, "Yesterday, the auction firm across the street sold a Black Lotus Herb that ultimately fetched 420,000. Do you think you can match that price?"

Asher Chester looked at Peter and said, "We’ll offer 400,000 for each, and we’ll buy them all. How does that sound?"

Before Peter could say anything, Asher Chester continued, "Although they sold for 420,000, prices do fluctuate. We might be able to sell them for over 500,000 in other sea cities. After all, we also have many expenses, don’t we?"

This price was within Peter’s expectations, so he nodded and agreed.

Asher Chester was delighted that the deal was done today.

Peter handed her a jade slip and said, "I need these materials. I don’t know if your auction firm can arrange it for me."

Asher Chester took a look and said, "We have all these materials here. Each set should cost around one hundred thousand sea currency. How many do you need?"

It can be obtained so easily!

Peter was genuinely surprised.

"Just give me one thousand sets."

He earned 40 million sea currency from selling the Lingcao, and after spending ten million, Peter still had 30 million left.

"If you have any knowledge about alchemy, please give me a copy as well."

"We have a few alchemy inheritances and several elixir formulas here. Overall, they’ll cost about 20 million sea currency. Do you want them?"

Peter nodded and said, "Alright, get them for me."

When Peter left the place with the materials and jade slips, he also had over 10 million sea currency left. He could certainly use it for a while.

Having just walked a short distance, Peter’s heart suddenly leaped, and he sensed someone was tailing him.

Not good!

Peter realized that the information about his sale of Lingcao might have been leaked.

Observing the dense crowd around him, Peter quickly blended into it.

However, after failing to shake off his pursuer with several attempts, Peter began to examine himself.

It was only after this inspection that Peter discovered a peculiar tracking powder on his shoes.

With this discovery, Peter understood the reason for him being trailed. It wasn’t because he sold Lingcao, but someone deliberately sprinkled tracking powder on the way to the upstairs area. Whoever went upstairs would likely be tracked, as those going upstairs were no ordinary people.

Seeing that his cultivation level was still at the Qi-refining level 10, Peter suddenly remembered what Beau Taylor had told him. He still couldn’t conceal his cultivation level, and he had been a bit careless.

After realizing this, Peter actually felt more relaxed.

Upon reaching a corner, Peter took off his shoes and, with his True Qi activated, threw them in another direction within the crowd.

After discarding the shoes, Peter changed into a new pair and took out an Invisibility Talisman and stood there watching.

Soon, Peter saw two Qi Refining 12th Layer individuals appear, and they chased after the shoes.

There really were people who wanted to rob and kill him!

By now, Peter had transformed back into his Human Clan appearance. However, he didn’t immediately reveal his true self, and instead followed the two individuals secretly.

With a few magic treasures in his possession, Peter had the confidence to not be caught by the other party. He wanted to know who these people were.

Seeing the two people picking up the shoes with an ugly expression, a smile appeared at the corner of Peter’s mouth. This time, they probably didn’t expect that they would lose track of him.

After conferring for a while, the two people headed towards the east of the city.

Peter followed them and arrived at a very large estate.

Seeing this estate, Peter started to speculate who the residents could be.

It was evident that this estate was very huge in the city.

He never expected that the people trailing him would belong to this place.

As Peter examined the surroundings of the estate, he noticed covert formations set up around it. If someone entered carelessly, they would likely be discovered.

Seeing the power of the estate, Peter did not linger and left.

Peter guessed that the other party didn’t specifically target him; he just happened to stumble upon their operation. It was best not to get mixed up in such things.

When Peter entered the courtyard, he saw Sarah directing the servants to clean up the yard.

"Sarah, there’s a huge estate in east part of the city. Who lives there?"

Peter asked casually.

Sarah said, "Master, are you talking about the Turner Family? Their estate is very large, not only in this city but also in several other cities. It is said that there is a person in the Turner Family who has reached the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage and is suppressing their cultivation, ready to leave at any time."

Turner Family?

This was the first time Peter heard of this surname, so he began to ponder.

From this event, it was clear that the Turner Family was secretly involved in some unknown activities. Possibly, robbing and killing cultivators to obtain treasures was the reason for their family’s growth.

Thinking about the Turner Family’s development, Peter speculated that they hadn’t done a few nefarious things to amass wealth and cause harm to others.
