Chapter 488: Too Confident
Master of Star Source Stone Identification!
The look in Xiahou Jue and others' eyes when they looked at Chu Ning changed.
In the Star Sea Region, the strong are respected, but there is one type of person who can transcend realms and become the guest of honor of all forces, and that is the Star Source Stone Appraisal Master.
The star source in the Star Sea Region has only one source, which comes from the Star Source Stone.
The Star Source Stone is located deep in the starry sea, where even the four major families cannot control it. The closer to the deep sea, the denser and stronger the undercurrents become, and a powerful god-transforming warrior will fall if he is not careful.
Therefore, if a mining area containing Star Source Stone is discovered, all major forces will try their best to open up a safe transportation route, which is extremely expensive.
Not every piece of Star Source Stone in the mining area contains Star Source. If they are directly dug out, it would be a waste of Star Source Stone.
If it is left in the mining area, there is a high possibility that a star source will be born in a hundred or even a thousand years.
Because of this characteristic of the Star Source Stone, all major forces need identification masters who can tell whether the Star Source Stone contains star sources, so as to avoid waste due to premature excavation.
Maintaining a stable road to the mining area is so expensive that if the benefits cannot be maximized, it may not even be possible to break even in the end.
This is also the reason why Xiahou Jue and others’ expressions changed suddenly after hearing Chu Ning’s words.
"Are you a Star Source Stone appraiser?"
Zheng Fuqing had a look of doubt in his eyes: "How can a mere Jindan cultivator like you get in touch with the Star Source Stone?"
Chu Ning chuckled disdainfully and did not answer Zheng Fuqing's words.
These days he has come to know the status of Star Source Appraisers in the Star Sea Region, which is even higher than the status of Alchemists among cultivators.
"So you are a Star Origin Stone appraiser, brother Yang. No wonder you have so many spirit crystals. You must have gambled a lot for Star Origin Stones."
Feng Ansheng patted Chu Ning's shoulder with an expression that said, "I see." His words also made Xiahou Jue and others confirm Chu Ning's financial resources.
It seems that only Xingyuan appraisers have the capital to spend tens of thousands of crystals here. And they are not ordinary appraisers, but real masters.
What they suspected was that they all knew the appraisal masters in the Star Sea Region, and the man in front of them had the Jindan cultivation level that was at the level of those appraisal masters.
"The appraiser's training is different from our normal training. A master appraiser once said that experience is important in appraising star source stones, but talent is more important. To become a master, one must be born close to the star source. When facing the star source stone, one can have a different sensory intuition than ordinary people."
A woman in the cabin appeared on the deck at some point, her eyes fell on Chu Ning, and the next moment she raised her right hand, and a football-sized Star Source Stone appeared in her palm.
"Could this young friend tell me whether there is a star source in this star source stone?"
The woman's actions made Xiahou Jue and others' eyes light up. To know whether it was true or not, the simplest and clearest way was to take out the Star Source Stone for testing.
Chu Ning glanced at the Star Source Stone in the woman's hand, his eyes lit up, and he said without hesitation: "I am willing to buy this Star Source Stone in your hand for 100,000 Spirit Crystals."
"One hundred thousand?"
Feng Ansheng on the side was shocked. Such a small piece of Star Source Stone, even if it contained only a trace of Star Source, was not worth 100,000 Spirit Crystals.
"If it's not enough, I can add more, but I don't have that many spirit crystals, so I need to raise some."
Chu Ning's attitude was firm. Everyone looked at the woman. The woman smiled sweetly: "Master, you are joking. This is a gift from the elders. Yanran dare not sell it."
From a little friend to a "master", the change of title says it all.
Xiahou Jue and others understood that the star source in the star source stone in Qin Yanran's hand was extraordinary, and it must have been looked at by a master of appraisal.
"Fairy Qin, it is possible that this person knows that you are of noble status and that the Star Source Stone you carry must be extraordinary, so he said this on purpose."
Xiahou Jue sent a message to Qin Yanran. Only they could hear the voice, but Chu Ning heard it clearly. This guy is really suspicious.
"Whether it's true or not, I'll know after another test."
Another man replied and took out a Star Source Stone from his storage bag.
Star Source Stone is a very special stone. If it weighs more than ten kilograms, it cannot be put into the storage bag. Otherwise, the major forces would not spend a lot of money to open up an expensive passage to the mining area. They would just put it all into the storage bag and take it away.
"Take a look at my Star Source Stone."
The man looked at Chu Ning, but what he didn't expect was that Chu Ning sneered and didn't even look at him.
Being ignored by Chu Ning made the man look ashamed and angry. A mere Jindan cultivator actually dared to ignore his words.
"It's really ridiculous. You guys don't know the fees that the appraisal master charges for appraisal of the Star Source. You still want me to check the Star Source Stone for you for free. There is no such good thing in the world. Why should I prove myself to you?"
Chu Ning had a proud look on his face, and his words made the man blush. He just wanted to test whether this man really had the ability of an appraisal master, not to take advantage of him.
But if this person says it, it will seem like he is taking advantage of others. Once it gets out, he will lose all face.
"Go ahead and appraise it. If you are really capable, I can still afford the spiritual crystals."
The fee charged by the appraisal master is generally 10% of the value of the star source quoted, which is the market price. However, if a force seeks out an appraisal master for batch appraisal, the fee will be much lower.
"If you want to give me spirit crystals, then I will accept them. Just give me one thousand spirit crystals!"
Chu Ning spoke lightly, and his words made the man's face change instantly. The same was true for Qin Yanran, Xiahou Jue and others, whose expressions became strange.
One thousand spirit crystals. This is the lowest fee charged by a master appraiser. There is only one situation where they would charge this amount of spirit crystals.
The identified star source stone contained no star source.
The man's face turned green, he thought this Star Source Stone was very likely to produce Star Sources, and it was not an ordinary Star Source, so he carried it with him in his storage bag. Now it was said to be a piece of waste stone, and his face looked extremely ugly.
Although he is not a member of the four major families, the family behind him is second only to the four major families. The key is that he is still the young patriarch of the family. In terms of status, he is only slightly lower than the young masters of the four major families.
"If there is a star source in this star source stone, I will let you know the price of talking nonsense."
The man cut the Star Source Stone without saying a word.
Small
Chu Ning curled his lips. Unless there was something wrong with the Dongxu Treasure Mirror, he would have made a mistake.
After three breaths, the green skin of the Star Source Stone fell off, and the man's face turned blue and white, while Xiahou Jue and others looked at Chu Ning with bright eyes.
This person's identification skills are definitely that of a master.
Not to mention Qin Yanran's Star Source Stone, the fact that Sun Ming could carry this Star Source Stone on him must have been checked by an appraiser, and the conclusion given was that it was very likely to contain high-level Star Source, otherwise Sun Ming would not have carried it on his body with his identity.
But this person only took a few simple glances and was certain that Sun Ming's Star Source Stone was a waste stone. His eyesight was extraordinary.
"I don't know what to call you, Master. I am Qin Yanran from the Qin family."
Qin Yanran came towards Chu Ning from the deck, slender and graceful, and landed directly beside Chu Ning, exuding a pleasant fragrance.
"Fairy Qin, my brother's name is Ji Yang."
Feng Ansheng on the side answered for Chu Ning first, looking at Qin Yanran with stars in his eyes.
In the Star Sea Region, the only person who can be as famous as her elder sister is Fairy Qin Yanran.
"It turns out to be Master Ji. I wonder if Master Ji is free to visit my Qin family."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Such a master of appraisal, who doesn't seem to have any other forces behind him, Qin Yanran would naturally not miss such an opportunity to win him over.
"Okay, I'll go for a walk when I have time."
Chu Ning's words were purely polite, with the same meaning as "definitely next time" or "Come when you are free".
Mostly there is no space.
However, Qin Yanran failed to hear the perfunctory and politeness in Chu Ning's words. It was because of the different customs. Qin Yanran smiled and blinked her beautiful eyes, with a charming and seductive temperament.
In Qin Yanran's mind, Chu Ning appeared in such a place and lingered there, spending a lot of spirit crystals for this purpose. He must be a pervert. She has plenty of ways to deal with such a person.
In terms of appearance, she was called Fairy Qin in the Star Sea Region, needless to say. Even Feng Ange, who was as famous as her, was not as good as her in capturing men.
Seeing Qin Yanran's actions, Zheng Fuqing and others also reacted, and they came to the same conclusion as Qin Yanran.
Xiahou Jue's face suddenly turned dark. This Master Ji claimed to be on good terms with An Fengsheng and even paid spirit crystals to An Fengsheng. Could it be that he had some intention towards Feng Angge?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high.
Feng Ange was already his chosen woman, and he would never allow anyone to get involved, not even an appraisal master.
Boom! Xiahou Jue's momentum rose, and the powerful aura went towards Chu Ning. Qin Yanran, who was standing next to Chu Ning, focused her eyes, her long sleeves fluttered, and lotus flowers appeared out of thin air, blocking Chu Ning.
"Fellow Daoist Xiahou, what does this mean?"
Qin Yanran questioned with a cold face. At the same time, Zheng Fuqing and others stood in front of Xiahou Jue.
The value of an appraisal master is extraordinary, and they cannot just watch this man being killed by Xiahou Jue.
"Brother Xiahou, calm down."
Zheng Fuqing tried to persuade them, and Xiahou Jue saw the actions of several people and knew that he could not kill Ji Yang. In fact, he did not intend to kill Ji Yang, but just wanted to teach him a lesson and let him know that even a master of appraisal could not touch his woman.
Chu Ning's expression remained unchanged. He understood why Xiahou Jue wanted to attack him, but wasn't this man too confident?
It seems like Feng Ange ignores this person?
"Humph, I just let him know that there are some women that he can't think about."
Xiahou Jue looked at Chu Ning coldly, and Chu Ning gave him a disdainful look: "How come I didn't know that Young Master Xiahou had a woman?"
"Feng Ange is this young master's woman!"
No one's expression changed when listening to Xiahou Jue's words. Everyone present knew that Xiahou Jue was pursuing Feng Ange. Although Feng Ange had not agreed yet, everyone thought it was only a matter of time.
"Brother Feng, is that so?"
Chu Ning looked at Feng Ansheng, who hesitated and was unable to answer. In his mind, the only one who could be worthy of his sister was Xiahou Jue.
But when he thought of his sister's cold attitude towards Xiahou Jue, he felt that his sister didn't seem to have such thoughts about Xiahou Jue.
Feng Ansheng met Chu Ning's eyes and saw disappointment in them.
In an instant, he understood the meaning in Chu Ning's eyes, and his body trembled. The next moment, he said seriously: "My sister did not agree. For the sake of my sister's reputation, please don't say that again in the future, Master Xiahou."
Feng Ansheng mustered up his courage, and a relieved smile appeared on Chu Ning's face. It was worth it that Feng Ange loved her as his younger brother.
Xiahou Jue's expression turned ugly in an instant, while Qin Yanran and others were stunned. They didn't expect Feng Ansheng to say such a thing.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
"Good, that's great!"
Xiahou Jue suddenly burst into laughter, but the sound was filled with endless anger.
At this moment, a graceful figure came walking on the water and stood on the lake, but did not step onto the boat.
"Come on, come home with me."
Feng Ange showed up, but he didn't even look at Xiahou Jue from beginning to end. He just spoke softly to his younger brother.
