In the end, under the strange and mocking gazes of the surrounding crowd, Shen Ziyue and his companions left the Hall of Rare Treasures in complete disgrace.
Although they had not yet bought the items they originally ca for, they no longer had the face to remain there. Today, they had truly lost all dignity.
Of course, Li Yun did not care about their departure at all.
In his eyes, those five people were nothing more than clowns jumping around in front of him. They thought themselves impressive, but they were not even qualified to make him feel the slightest concern.
After paying the Spirit Stones, Li Yun stored away the spiritual materials he had purchased, along with the Violet Shadow Sword Array, and left the Hall of Rare Treasures.
"Little brother, wait a mont."
Only a few dozen ters away from the Hall of Rare Treasures, a clear and bright voice suddenly ca from behind Li Yun.
Li Yun turned around and saw a sturdy young man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old walking toward him with a wide smile on his face. His shoulders were broad, his body looked powerful, and his expression seed friendly at first glance, but there was a faint sharpness hidden deep in his eyes.
"What is it?" Li Yun asked calmly.
The sturdy young man smiled even more brightly and said, "Little brother, I saw you casually spend more than a hundred high-grade Spirit Stones just now, so I assu your wealth must be quite impressive."
He rubbed his hands together and continued with a cheerful expression, "It just so happens that I have taken a liking to a spiritual artifact, but unfortunately, my pockets are rather empty at the mont. I wonder if you would be willing to lend so Spirit Stones?"
"How do you intend to borrow them?" Li Yun asked indifferently.
"It is very simple."
The sturdy young man’s smile remained bright as he said, "Little brother only needs to lend fifty high-grade Spirit Stones. Do not worry. In half a month, once I beco an Outer Sect Disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, I will definitely return the money to you."
"Is that so?"
Li Yun glanced at him and said calmly, "Do you think everyone else is a fool? If I lend you those Spirit Stones, I am afraid I will never see them again in this lifeti."
"Hahahaha!"
The sturdy young man laughed loudly, but the smile on his face did not disappear. "Little brother, you are quite direct. However, I still think it would be better if you obediently lent so Spirit Stones. I am not asking for much. Fifty high-grade Spirit Stones will be enough."
The mont he said the word "enough," the sturdy young man suddenly attacked.
Whoosh!
Although his body looked heavy and powerful, his movent was strangely swift and unpredictable. In the span of a single breath, his figure flickered several tis, and he appeared directly in front of Li Yun. His hand shot forward like a claw, aiming to seize Li Yun’s wrist.
"Idiot."
Li Yun sneered coldly.
A lightning sword instantly condensed in his hand, and without the slightest hesitation, he unleashed a move from the Thunderfla Gale Sword Art.
Swoosh!
A terrifying Sword Qi erupted with unmatched sharpness. In an instant, it almost severed the sturdy young man’s entire hand.
"Not good."
The sturdy young man’s expression changed drastically. He hurriedly retreated, and when he looked down at his nearly severed hand, his face beca extrely ugly.
Although this injury would not completely cripple his hand, if he wanted to heal it without leaving behind any hidden damage, he would have to spend a large amount of wealth.
He had tried to steal a chicken, only to lose a handful of rice instead.
He had wanted to snatch Spirit Stones from Li Yun, but in the end, he had suffered a serious injury and would likely have to spend most of his own savings to recover. It was truly enough to make a person want to cry without tears.
"Kid, you are ruthless."
The sturdy young man could no longer maintain the smile on his face. He glared fiercely at Li Yun, then clutched his injured hand and vanished from the area in the blink of an eye.
At the sa ti, several cultivators hidden in the shadows, who had clearly been harboring the sa intentions as the sturdy young man, quietly sucked in a cold breath. Their expressions beca much more solemn.
That sturdy young man was not weak. His strength was far above that of an ordinary 1st level mortal core realm expert, yet he had still been forced back by Li Yun so easily.
It seed that Li Yun was not soone they could casually provoke.
After exchanging a few silent glances, those people withdrew without making another move.
Sensing their auras disappear one after another, Li Yun shook his head slightly.
The reason he had stopped and exchanged words with the sturdy young man was precisely to establish his authority and frighten away the others who were watching from the shadows. Since they had already chosen to retreat, he naturally could not be bothered to chase after them.
Soon after, Li Yun returned directly to his own residence.
Inside the simple tent, he took out the Violet Shadow Sword Array.
The Violet Shadow Sword Array consisted of ten low-grade Earth Rank violet shadow swords. When the ten swords were combined into a complete formation, their overall power could roughly reach a level between middle-grade and high-grade Earth Rank.
"The refining thod used for these ten violet shadow swords is still too crude. Many of the materials were not truly fused into the swords, so the hidden connection between them is not perfect."
After inspecting them briefly, Li Yun shook his head.
Even so, this sword array was still useful to him for the ti being.
"Next, it is ti to cultivate the Soul Sword Control Art."
