"Brother, why are you interested in such a Dharma Gate?"
Chen Jiuniang?
Though the other party wore a veil, she couldn't fool an acquaintance.
Fang Zheng instinctively touched the human skin mask on his face and spoke in a muffled voice:
"This is not sothing you need to worry about, miss. If you have such a Dharma Gate, I am willing to pay a high price. Otherwise, please make way."
"Heh..." Chen Jiuniang chuckled lightly:
"It's my mistake. But, how high is the high price you speak of?"
"That depends on what you can offer." Fang Zheng stared directly at her, fully displaying his blunt and straightforward personality:
"If the item is good, money is not an issue!"
His voice was coarse, like muffled thunder, causing the nearby people to tremble.
Beneath the thin veil,
Chen Jiuniang's beautiful eyes subtly shifted.
Martial Dao Will!
Martial Artist!
A Martial Artist with Martial Dao Will is not to be underestimated, even if his cultivation base is only at the Minor Circulation stage. It made her more cautious.
No wonder he dares to trade in the black market with his true appearance; it seems he truly has so skill.
"I happen to have a Cultivation Technique like this, a Superior Dharma Gate." Chen Jiuniang pulled out a slip of paper from her sleeve, handed it over, and said:
"I'm not sure if this might interest you, brother?"
"I'll sell this technique at a cheaper price, only five hundred taels of silver!"
Fang Zheng took the slip of paper, glanced at it, and felt speechless.
Elental Thunder Skill!
Is she trying to sell the sa thing to multiple people?
But even so, you can't just keep ripping off the sa person back and forth. Whether Chen Jiuniang realized that the person before her was indeed him didn't concern him anymore.
"Hmph!"
Fang Zheng snorted coldly, feigning anger:
"Is the lady joking with ? Trying to fool with a technique that's impossible to cultivate, do you really think I'm so easy to deceive?"
"Who says it's impossible to cultivate?" Chen Jiuniang replied:
"Not long ago, I saw soone successfully cultivate it."
"Really?" Fang Zheng looked unconvinced:
"Unfortunately, I don't see myself having the opportunity to succeed in this cultivation. However, if the lady were to offer it for free, I wouldn't mind giving it a try."
"..." Chen Jiuniang remained speechless, shook her head, and began to put away the paper as she stood to leave.
"Wait."
Fang Zheng suddenly spoke.
"What is it?" Chen Jiuniang stopped:
"Is brother interested after all?"
"No." Fang Zheng shook his head and said:
"Since the lady possesses such a Cultivation Technique, you should also have a corresponding Martial Art, right? Why not bring it out; we can discuss the price."
The Elental Thunder Skill is a cultivation thod but not a technique for defeating enemies.
It's like the relationship between the Three-Body Form and Five Elents Fist.
One refines the body,
the other is used to face the enemy.
Although Fang Zheng cultivated True Qi to beco a Martial Artist, apart from the One-Character Heart-Clearing Slash, he had no superior Martial Arts that utilized True Qi.
The Heart Intent Fist is not bad.
But its core is the manipulation of Qi and Blood and muscle strength.
How to replace these with True Qi is still being explored.
As a rule,
A Martial Artist capable of cultivating True Qi would have so heritage to support it.
Like the Beggar Sect Leader 'Wind and Fire Divine Dragon' Yin Fang, his practiced Six Yang Skill is complented by the Six Yang Palm, which is far more powerful than usual.
But Fang Zheng was rely a Loose Cultivator without heritage. Acquiring the Elental Thunder Skill was already fortunate, so he didn't know where to start acquiring corresponding Martial Arts.
"This..."
Chen Jiuniang showed hesitation.
Indeed, she had it.
But unlike the nearly impossible-to-cultivate Elental Thunder Skill, the Martial Arts she possessed were genuine True Qi Martial Arts, a Superior Dharma Gate.
"Miss."
Fang Zheng spoke again:
"Price is not a problem!"
"Such bold words!" Chen Jiuniang raised her eyebrows and stood at the entrance, speaking slowly:
"I do have a Superior Martial Art that suits it, called Five Thunders Hand, which is a Palm Technique of unparalleled power."
"But it won't be cheap."
"How much are we talking about?"
"Three thousand taels of silver!"
Chen Jiuniang extended three fingers, looking at him with a half-smile:
"Can you afford it?"
"..." Fang Zheng lifted his head and, from his body, retrieved an embroidered box. Upon opening it, several pearls were revealed. He said slowly:
"How about this?"
Won are always drawn to shiny things; Chen Jiuniang was no exception.
She licked her lips, suppressing the excitent in her heart, and said:
"Not enough."
"Unless you add another thousand taels of silver!"
"..." Fang Zheng looked up with a blank expression:
"Deal!"
?
The asking price was too low!
Chen Jiuniang's mouth twitched.

Ren Mansion.
The Ren Family's Patriarch Ren Yan sat at the head position, with the elders of the family and heads of different branches gathered together, a heavy atmosphere weighing on everyone's mind.
"What has happened cannot be undone." Ren Qiu from the third branch spoke:
"The most critical thing is what to do next?"
"The Ren Family has been rooted in Gu'an County for generations, supported by officials from the Imperial Court above and over a thousand tenant farrs below. The Anxi Army will not really move against us." Ren An said:
"Xiao Wu made a mistake on his own and cannot drag down the entire family. First, remove his na from our records, and then speak with Lord Yan to diate."
"Send so gifts to General Li as well, and the matter will be settled."
"It's not that simple." Soone shook their head:
"In recent days, the Anxi Army has been retracting soldiers, showing signs of surrounding our Ren Family. Song Kewang might really take action against us."
"Indeed!"
The Patriarch Ren Yan slowly nodded:
"There is sothing you may not know. Song Kewang is crafting the Thousand-Autumn Demon Sword and urgently needs a large amount of blood and flesh to complete it, using our family's lives as material..."
"It's not impossible!"
"The Demon Sword?"
"Isn't that sothing related to the White Lotus Sect?"
"Since when..."
The crowd was in uproar, and the atmosphere beca tense.
Initially, there was no anxiety because they relied on the size and influence of the Ren Family, believing that even the Anxi Army would have scruples about acting against them.
Now, hearing the possibility of action involving their lives and safety, they were naturally moved.
"The White Lotus Sect set up a Blood Altar in Gu'an County, using human lives for Artifact Refining; you all know this. But you didn't know it hadn't even been completed before Song Kewang snatched it away."
