“If it really doesn’t work, then I’ll give you a five-colored spirit stone.” Old du saw that Ling Chuxi still did not say anything and felt even more uncertain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said.

“Alright, deal.” Ling Chuxi did not hesitate any longer. If she continued to hesitate, she reckoned that old du would not even dare to take the five-colored spirit stone and would instead take the single-colored spirit stone. Although she wasn’t a kind person, she still felt guilty for tricking such a poor and honest man.

As Ling Chuxi spoke, she took out a five-colored spirit stone and handed it over. Elder du was overjoyed and stretched out his hand.

“Wait, I’ll pay ten five-colored spirit stones.” Just then, an arrogant voice interrupted them.

Ling Chuxi’s heart sank. Could it be that someone else had seen through the origin of the cold heart Spirit Fire? this was going to be troublesome.

Ling Chuxi turned her head and saw three young men walking over with majestic steps. Seeing that they were dressed in an extraordinary manner, they were probably disciples of some aristocratic family.

“I’ll buy this stone for ten five-colored spirit stones. ” The man in the lead glared at Ling Chuxi and the others, looking determined to win.

“Steward Qin, w-why are you here?” Elder du said with a face full of smiles. It was obvious that this steward surnamed Qin was a regular customer of the market. However, from the unnatural expressions of elder du and the other vendors, this person was probably not easy to get along with. However, they knew that he was a steward of an aristocratic family.

“Didn’t you hear the Lord steward’s words? hurry up and put down the stone. ” A young man who looked like an attendant shouted at Ling Chuxi sternly.

Steward Qin glared at the man, who quickly shut his mouth and lowered his head.

“If I’m not mistaken, we came first.” Ling Chuxi said coldly.

“It’s true that you came first, but you haven’t made a deal yet, have you? The rules of the cloud Ridge market state that the person who offers the highest price will get it. Since I offered a higher price than you, this stone naturally belongs to me. ” Steward Qin said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.

“Who said we didn’t make a deal? we’ve already discussed the price and are preparing to make a deal. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him.” Zi Yin pointed at old du and angrily said.

“Oh, really?” Steward Qin glanced at elder du, his eyes full of threat.

“This … This …” Old du looked at steward Qin and then looked at Ling Chuxi. He was so anxious that his head was covered in cold sweat. It was originally just a strange stone, and it wasn’t easy for him to meet someone who knew what it was. How did he provoke steward Qin, this fiend, out again? this was great, it had become a hot potato.

He didn’t want to lie to steward Qin, but he didn’t dare to offend steward Qin. He was in a dilemma and even regretted it. If he knew this would happen, he wouldn’t have sold the stone. He would have left it at home for peace.

“What’s this? did you make a deal or not?” Steward Qin’s expression turned cold and he asked in a sinister tone.

“Earlier, this girl and I, indeed … Indeed …” Elder du hesitated again and again, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and spoke the truth.

“Old du, it seems like you don’t want to cultivate in the cloud Ridge mountain range anymore.” Steward Qin interrupted old DU’s words with a gloomy voice.

Elder DU’s expression froze, and he swallowed his words. He was just a rogue cultivator and didn’t have any decent cultivation resources. After so many years of bitter cultivation, he was still stuck at the peak of the half-Saint realm. If he was driven out of the cloud Ridge mountain range, he wouldn’t even have the last chance to advance. But, but …
