"Brother, how much is this?" Zhou Qing asked the stall owner.
The man from the Golden Thunder Sect imdiately introduced enthusiastically, "Brother, you have a good eye. This item was excavated from an ancient tomb and should be a pretty good burial item. It contains special spiritual properties, but unfortunately, I'm not the destined person, so I can't decipher its mysteries."
Zhou Qing looked carefully at it. Isn't this just an ordinary clay pot with a layer of spirit moth powder sprinkled on it using a very clever technique? Do you really think I'm a clueless average disciple?
The man from the Golden Thunder Sect continued, "If Brother likes it, you can take it for eighteen low-grade spirit stones. Consider it a good start for today's business."
Zhou Qing squatted down and casually picked up the rotten bone next to him, rubbing it against the clay pot.
The man's complexion from the Golden Thunder Sect visibly changed.
The crowd watching also gathered out of curiosity, wanting to see what was going on. But Zhou Qing imdiately blocked them.
He then smiled at the stall owner, "Brother, the item is good, but it's still too expensive. How about ten spirit stones, including this bone."
Zhou Qing put the bone into the clay pot and negotiated.
As the saying goes, it's hard to hit a smiling face. The man from the Golden Thunder Sect was certain that Zhou Qing had discovered the secret of the clay pot but didn't expose him.
He must want that bone. Could he really intend to take it ho to scrub himself with?
The rotten bone was picked up casually on the way to Taiqing Sect, nothing special, while the cost of the clay pot was less than one spirit stone.
This was already a huge profit.
Very quickly, the man from the Golden Thunder Sect gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, since you genuinely want it, I will sincerely sell it, let's consider it a good start."
"Thank you, Brother!" Zhou Qing cheerfully took out ten spirit stones and handed them over.
The man also smiled, "Thank you too!"
The two exchanged smiles, everything understood without words.

As soon as the transaction was completed, the system prompt sounded.
Right after, the remark above the head of the nearby second uncle changed from [Fun Little Doll] to [Listen-to-Advice Little Doll].
Zhou Qing chuckled.
Who is listening to your advice? This is exactly what I wanted to buy anyway.
However, he could take the opportunity to ask a bit.
Zhou Qing walked while curiously asking, "Third Brother, with your broad knowledge, is there anything special about this bone?"
The second uncle waved his hand, took the bone, lightly exerted force, and the bone cracked into two pieces.
"Don't bother with the rotten part. This segnt is fine. If I'm not mistaken, this should be a piece of bone from a Great Success Red Fla Dragon Lion," he said.
Zhou Qing looked puzzled.
The second uncle explained, "A Great Success Red Fla Dragon Lion would be at least at Nascent Soul Stage. It has a faint trace of Dragon Vein within its body. You're cultivating the Silver Dragon Hand, right? Using this technique while bathing could greatly enhance your cultivation progress."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing beca ecstatic.
Unexpected that it could be used this way.
"What, were you planning to cultivate it the conventional way? That would take forever! Think a bit, everything in the world is interconnected, there are plenty of shortcuts," the second uncle advised.
Zhou Qing nodded repeatedly. He now suspected that the second uncle had also cultivated the Silver Dragon Hand and had reached the Great Success Realm.
"Brother Zhou, you ca so early!"
Soon, Senior Sister Shi Zhen turned from a stall and spotted Zhou Qing, greeted with a smile.
"Greetings, Sister Shi!"
Zhou Qing bowed. Unexpectedly, the second uncle also followed suit, earning Zhou Qing's admiration.
Putting on a full act, you really have imrsed yourself in this role.
Such adaptability!
"Third Brother and I ca early. Did you find anything good?" Zhou Qing asked.
Shi Zhen shook her head slightly, "The real good stuff usually appears in the last few days. Right now, it's just small trades; rashly buying may lead to misjudgnt."
After a brief chat, Shi Zhen left to browse other areas.
At this point, the second uncle couldn't help but ask, "I'm actually quite curious. Since you almost peeked at her bathing, why did she invite you to eat at the Jade Dining Hall afterward?"
Zhou Qing looked at him, his face suddenly showing indignation, " peeking at her bathing was purely a setup by an ungrateful old rascal. Fortunately, Sister Shi Zhen understands the big picture and knows that soone as innocent as wouldn't do such a lewd thing."
"Afterward, to comfort my wounded spirit, she invited for a al."
The second uncle: "..."
"Third Brother, isn't that old geezer shaless?" Zhou Qing stared intently at the second uncle.
The second uncle coughed dryly and then also showed indignation, "I, Yan Xiaohu, detest such people the most. But could it be he ant well but did wrong?"
Zhou Qing said seriously, "I never peek at won bathing and I'm not interested in won. What he heard about my preferences is pure slander."
"Even taking a step back, if I had that fetish, wouldn't there be better ways to repay without harming other girls' reputations? He could give more money or advanced cultivation techniques."
"Enough about this; talking about that old man makes angry. Are you really my Third Brother?"
The second uncle looked at Zhou Qing oddly but quickly patted his chest assuring, "Of course!"
"Since you're the Brother who cares for the most, now that this younger brother is very angry, help scold that old man to vent my anger," Zhou Qing said.
The second uncle's face twitched.
Looking around, he said, "There are so many people here. Cursing randomly would embarrass Taiqing Sect."
"True, there's a secluded spot over there. Let's go there and scold that old geezer properly," Zhou Qing pointed to an alley not far away.
[Heart Mirror Points 5]
Zhou Qing watched the hesitant second uncle and his remark changing to [Small-minded] above his head. This mont he felt a sense of clarity.
"Let's go! With Brother's knowledge of , you should be able to curse many offensive words, I love hearing you curse!" Zhou Qing excitedly pulled the second uncle towards the alley, but then the second uncle suddenly seed to rember sothing.
"Fourth, I suddenly have sothing urgent. You continue to browse, and when we return, we'll slowly curse him!"
The second uncle finished speaking and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Originally furious, Zhou Qing's face slowly turned into a smile.
"Aweso!!!"
...
Taiqing Sect, Divine Peak!
Li Daoxuan and He Han were looking around as if searching for sothing.
"You two, co here. Have you seen your Senior Sister Lu?"
Li Daoxuan shouted to five servants cleaning nearby.
The five hurriedly ran over holding their brooms and bowed, "Greetings, Brothers. Just now we saw Sister Lu outside the Reception Hall; not sure if she's still there."
Upon hearing this, they hurried towards the Reception Hall.
