"Master, I think now is the best time to kill Han Feng. We can't let him grow any stronger," Hu Qiqing said anxiously.
"You think I don't know? But do you think this is realistic? With so many sects watching us, if our Broken Heart Sect makes a move, we'll definitely become the target of everyone's criticism, and then we'll be completely out of luck with the Profound Heaven Spirit-Slaying Sword." Leng Hanmei's voice gradually turned cold.
"But..."
“There are no buts. A sect cannot do whatever it wants just because of its own connections. Do you know why you ended up in Han Feng’s hands? It’s because you acted too impulsively. If you can’t even control this, then there’s no point in you being the Holy Maiden of the Broken Heart Sect.”
"I'm sorry, Master."
Hu Qiqing quickly apologized.
"You still have so much to learn in the future, you should learn humbly." Leng Hanmei finally nodded.
That's what she said, but that wasn't what she really meant.
In Leng Hanmei's mind, Han Feng was a major potential threat.
Before arriving at Huangfeng Valley, she had decided that regardless of whether Han Feng was willing to hand over the Xuan Tian Zhan Ling Sword, she would kill him.
But when Han Feng flicked out a flying sword, which Tianji Daoren failed to catch, she changed her mind.
Leng Hanmei is much stronger than Tianji Daoren, but her strength is only slightly greater.
She felt that even if the three of them attacked with great force, they might not be able to kill Han Feng.
Since killing him is not an option, the best approach is to negotiate and force Han Feng to hand over the Xuan Tian Zhan Ling Sword.
Leng Hanmei didn't tell Hu Qiqing the real reason because she wanted to save face.
You can't exactly tell your apprentice that you didn't do it because you couldn't win.
"Master is right, I will remember your teachings. But could you help me get my personal clothes back?"
"No need to rush this. I'll take it back once those people make an offer."
Leng Hanmei's eyes suddenly turned hostile, realizing that Han Feng was likely to make another exorbitant demand.
After all, Han Feng cherishes spirit stones as if they were his lifeblood, a fact known throughout Tiannan and Lingzhou.
She wanted to see the prices offered by everyone so she could take the opportunity to back down.
"I see everyone is very enthusiastic, but there's only one set of clothes. If I had known you would be so enthusiastic, I would have let the Holy Maiden of the Heartbreak Sect wear several more sets. As I just said, the highest bidder wins. You can make your bids now," Han Feng said.
"I am willing to spend 20,000 top-grade spirit stones to buy this outfit for my friend, and also to buy an outfit for the Holy Maiden of the Heartbreak Sect."
"Thirty thousand top-grade spirit stones!"
"Thirty thousand and one top-grade spirit stones."
"Thirty thousand and two top-grade spirit stones."
"Thirty thousand and three top-grade spirit stones!"
...
Everyone eagerly submitted bids, showing considerable enthusiasm.
However, the prices offered by the crowd were very limited, or rather, too low.
Hu Qiqing breathed a heavy sigh of relief; the lower the bids, the easier it would be to win the prize.
Leng Hanmei was also ready to make an offer at any time. Hu Qiqing's clothes definitely couldn't fall into other people's hands, as the matter concerned the reputation of the Duanqing Sect.
"Is this an insult to me, Han, or an insult to the Holy Maiden of the Broken Heart Sect? You think you can buy the Holy Maiden's personal clothing with just 30,000 top-grade spirit stones? You're dreaming."
Han Feng said without any politeness, "I don't welcome poor people here. If you don't have top-grade spirit stones, you'd better get lost. I sold the Saintess of the Broken Heart Sect for 60 million top-grade spirit stones. It's not too much for me to sell this clothing for 10 million top-grade spirit stones, is it?"
"Ten million top-grade spirit stones. This old devil Han is obsessed with spirit stones. Anyway, I don't have that many spirit stones."
"At most 100,000 top-grade spirit stones. I won't give you even one more. Besides, 100,000 top-grade spirit stones could buy so many female cultivators."
"Although my friend really wanted this outfit, he couldn't afford it, and there's nothing I can do about it."
...
Ten million top-grade spirit stones were simply too many, causing everyone present to hesitate.
"That old devil Han must be crazy for spirit stones. If my personal clothing can sell for that much, why can't I sell it myself?" Hu Qiqing mocked.
However, she soon realized that she had underestimated the outfit and Han Feng's business acumen.
"This outfit looks expensive to you, but once you know about the free gifts, you'll realize it's well worth the price," Han Feng said calmly with a smile.
What free gift?
Everyone was incredibly curious.
"I'll give you all the books I'm giving away as a gift, such as 'My Story with the Holy Maiden of the Heartless Sect for Three Days and Two Nights' and 'The Secret I Had to Tell with the Holy Maiden of the Heartless Sect'. Do you think you're getting a good deal now?"
Han Feng added a reminder: "You know, back then, 'The Secret Between Me and Master Xingyue' was incredibly hard to find. It's possible that his fictional story was so popular. You can imagine how popular my true story is."
"I just contacted a good friend, and he said he'd do anything to get the Holy Maiden of the Heartbreak Sect, no matter how many top-grade spirit stones he has."
"My friend is the same. He doesn't care about top-grade spirit stones. He just really likes the Holy Maiden of the Heartbreak Sect."
"Everyone, stop fighting. My friend wanted to help the Holy Maiden of the Broken Heart Sect before he died. I hope you can give him this opportunity."
My friend is too....
...
Everyone immediately became enthusiastic, and some even felt that ten million top-grade spirit stones were too few.
Just as Han Feng said, these books are definitely very valuable, and their future value will exceed ten million top-grade spirit stones.
You should know that after the Heavenly Demon Sect destroyed the Star Moon Sect, they found a book called "The Secret I Couldn't Tell My Master from the Star Moon Sect".
The Heavenly Demon Sect originally planned to burn everything down, but a genius elder thought it could be sold for money.
Just as the genius elder had predicted, a considerable number of spirit stones were sold.
In its very first year, the book was in such high demand that it was sold out.
The spirit stones earned from the books once exceeded the total number of spirit stones earned by the Heavenly Demon Sect in previous years.
If it weren't for the rampant piracy, the Heavenly Demon Sect might have earned even more.
The books in Han Feng's hands are now more convincing, because the Holy Maiden of the Broken Heart Sect was once his maid, which everyone witnessed.
Furthermore, these clothes are in Han Feng's hands, and each piece of them serves as evidence, making it hard not to believe.
In other words, if everyone obtains the book from Han Feng, they will be able to acquire more spirit stones.
In addition, the women of the Broken Heart Sect are all high and mighty, which gives people a special sense of accomplishment, making it impossible not to earn too many spirit stones.
How could this not move everyone present, making them even more excited than before?
Some people ahead of me were afraid of offending the Broken Heart Sect, so they kept saying they were my friends.
Faced with enormous profits, these people stopped pretending and directly admitted that they wanted to buy it.
"If everyone has no objections, let's continue with the bidding. As I said before, the highest bidder wins." Han Feng nodded in satisfaction.
He certainly won't write a book, but he definitely can't be short of a spirit stone.
As for being forced to write a book, that won't happen; there will definitely be someone willing to pay for it.
