"Someone wants to see me?"
Lu Qing was stunned at first, then he reacted.
Could it be that someone from the Treasure House has finally arrived?
"Wait a moment, I'll be there soon."
Lu Qing returned to the room, took Xiao Li and Wu Xing with him, and walked to the front of the inn.
When he arrived at the front hall of the inn, he saw several people sitting there waiting.
One of them was the messenger from the Treasure House whom he had seen before, a charming woman in a purple short robe.
He understood in his heart that it seemed that the Treasure House had finally reacted.
I just don't know whether he came here with good intentions or bad intentions.
Lu Qing was secretly on guard.
Although he wants to cooperate with Zhenbaolou, it doesn't mean that the other party thinks the same way. What if the other party comes to call him to task?
So we still need to be vigilant.
Lu Qing quietly activated his special ability and looked at those people.
"grown ups!"
Seeing Lu Qing coming, the charming woman stood up immediately and shouted with some excitement.
"Ziyuan, is this the Jindan Zhenren who sold the [Thunder Talisman] to you?"
When Master Wang saw this, he immediately understood and stood up.
"So you are the distinguished guests of the Treasure House. I wonder why you are looking for me. Is it because of the [Thunder Talisman] I am selling? Is there any problem?"
Lu Qing went straight to the point.
His eyes were fixed on Master Wang, and several messages appeared in his field of vision.
“As for the appraisal masters of the Treasure House, there are only these few who came here, and the one with the highest cultivation level is only at the Golden Core Stage.
In other words, the other party is likely to come with good intentions.”
Lu Qing's thoughts turned, and he felt a little relaxed.
Although the specific purpose of the Treasure House is still unknown, at least, they are not here to call for punishment.
"My fellow Daoist, please do not misunderstand me. There is nothing wrong with that [Thunder Talisman]. It is a genuine Jindan-level talisman."
Master Wang said quickly: "We came here for another matter."
"Oh? How can I help you?" Lu Qing asked.
“We would like to ask fellow Daoist about the origins of the adult who refined the [Thunder Talisman].
Fellow Taoist, does anyone know where he is now? We have important business to discuss with him.
Of course, we won’t make things difficult for you fellow Taoists.
Here is a small gift prepared by our Treasure House, please accept it."
After saying that, Master Wang waved his hand, and a man who looked like a servant came out holding a one-foot square brocade box and handed it respectfully to Lu Qing.
"grown ups?"
Lu Qing was keenly aware of the title "Master Wang" and his respectful tone.
His heart was slightly moved, but he did not reach out to take the brocade box.
Instead, he asked with a puzzled look, "I wonder what is the purpose of the senior who is looking for the [Thunder Talisman]?
That senior has done me a favor, so I cannot casually reveal his whereabouts."
Master Wang paused for a moment, thought about it, and decided to tell the truth.
After all, the person in front of him is also a powerful Jindan realm expert. Those who can cultivate to this realm are almost all outstanding people, and few of them are easy to fool.
If you deliberately conceal the truth, it may easily lead to further complications.
“To be honest with you, our host has seen the [Thunder Talisman] that you are selling.
I was amazed by the refining techniques displayed in the talismans.
So I want to visit that senior in person and ask for advice on the talisman method."
"Could you please teach me the method of using talismans?"
Lu Qing's mind became clearer, and combined with the information he had just found out from the people in front of him, he felt more confident.
After pondering for a while, Lu Qing suddenly waved his hand and set up a layer around him that could block prying eyes.
"Sir, what are you doing..." The charming woman was shocked.
The servants behind him also became alert and immediately alert.
On the contrary, Master Wang remained calm. He waved his hand gently, signaling everyone to stay calm.
"I'm sorry, everyone. You value the [Thunder Talisman] so much that I have to be more cautious." Lu Qing said with a smile.
"As it should be, it was we who neglected it. But seeing that you are so kind, are you willing to take us to meet that senior?" Master Wang
"Not yet. I need to meet the owner of Guibao Tower before I can decide whether to take you to meet that senior."
However, Lu Qing did not immediately admit that he had made the [Thunder Talisman], but instead made a request.
Master Wang frowned.
He could see that the person in front of him was aware of the importance he and others attached to the talisman-making master.
I want to negotiate terms with the OP in person and ask for benefits.
No wonder he refused to accept my gift just now, it turned out he had some big plans.
Feeling Lu Qing's greed, Master Wang felt a little unhappy.
He wanted to refuse, but when he remembered the instructions given by the host when he came here, he suppressed his unhappiness.
He smiled and said, "That's good. Our host has always been eager to recruit talented people. He will definitely be very happy to see a talent like you."
Although monks cannot judge age by appearance.
Many old monsters who have lived for tens of thousands of years may also like to appear as teenagers or even children.
But Master Wang could feel that the spiritual aura emanating from Lu Qing was very lively.
This means that the time he spent practicing was not long, at least not more than two hundred years.
Among the powerful Jindan realm masters, he belongs to the younger generation.
Such a strong person, even if he condensed a mid-grade golden elixir, can already be regarded as a true cultivation genius.
The host might want to recruit such a young talent.
And according to the information they had obtained yesterday, the young Jindan in front of them also carried two Jindan realm spirit beasts with him.
Presumably, he has a prominent background in the outside world.
In addition, it is still unclear what his relationship is with the talisman-making master who refined the [Thunder Talisman].
For a moment, Master Wang was unwilling to conflict with him.
Next, Lu Qing followed Master Wang and others and went to the Treasure House again.
He naturally noticed that Master Wang's attitude changed slightly after he asked to meet the owner of the Treasure Tower.
But he had no choice.
There were so many people in the inn just now that it was difficult to talk about many things.
He doesn't want his secrets to be heard by others.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please come in. Our host is waiting inside."
At the entrance of the Treasure House, Master Wang extended his hand to lead the way.
On the way here, he already knew Lu Qing's name.
"Thank you very much."
Lu Qing stepped into the Treasure House. The owner of the Treasure House, who had received the news in advance, was leading Master Qiu and others, waiting in the front hall on the first floor.
However, there was an obvious hint of impatience on Master Qiu's face.
"A mere intermediate-grade third-level golden elixir actually wants us to welcome him. This is totally outrageous!"
However, seeing the poster standing in front of him, Master Qiu could only express his dissatisfaction in his heart but did not dare to say it out loud.
Just when Master Qiu was dissatisfied, he saw the light in front of him dim, and a young man in a gray robe and with a calm temperament walked in from outside.
"This one must be Fellow Daoist Lu Qing. He is indeed a young talent with extraordinary demeanor."
The owner of the Treasure House was the first to greet him with a gentle smile on his face.
"I dare not. Lu Qing has met the owner of the building."
The owner of the Treasure House turned out to be a beautiful woman.
And in his perception, this person is only at the sixth level of the intermediate grade golden elixir.
This really surprised Lu Qing.
After all, Zhenbaolou is a powerful business in Canglan City, and the wealth it contains is astonishing.
He was very surprised that the controller was just a woman who had not yet entered the late Jindan realm.
It seems that the rumors outside that the Treasure House is related to a big shot in the Tianyuan World should be true.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a mere sixth-level Jindan cultivator to possess such a huge fortune.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I have great respect for the senior who refined the [Thunder Talisman]. I wonder if you could introduce me to him?
As for the remuneration, don't worry, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
After some pleasantries, the owner of the Treasure House asked directly.
Lu Qing looked around and asked: "Master, is this a good place to talk?"
The owner of the Treasure Tower was startled, and then he remembered what Master Wang said in the message before he came back.
She smiled slightly: "Don't worry, everyone here is from my Treasure House, no one will leak the secret."
Lu Qing thought of the powerful formation hidden in the Treasure House, and he understood.
So he stopped keeping the secret and said directly, "Master, there is one thing I have lied to you about. Please forgive me for that."
Everyone was slightly surprised.
Only the owner of the Treasure House remained calm: "Oh? What do you mean?"
"I said before that after meeting the host, I can take you to find the senior who refined the [Thunder Talisman]. In fact, there is no such thing as a senior."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed, even the owner of the Treasure Tower's gaze was fixed.
Master Qiu couldn't help but yell, "You don't know the senior who refined the Thunder Talisman! Boy, how dare you tease us!"
"Just be patient."
The owner of the Treasure House waved his hand to stop Master Qiu from speaking.
She looked at Lu Qing, her expression had returned to calm. "Brother Lu seems to have some hidden meaning in his words. Since that senior is not here, where did you get the [Thunder Talisman]?"
"I made it myself." Lu Qing said calmly.
"What?!"
This time, everyone was really shocked.
Even the owner of the Treasure Tower opened his red lips slightly, revealing a look of surprise.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you said that the [Thunder Talisman] was made by you yourself?"
“Yes, I refined it and took it to Guibao Building to sell it, intending to exchange it for some spiritual stones.
I just didn't expect that this would cause you to misunderstand me." Lu Qing explained.
"How shameless!"
The owner of Zhenbao Tower didn't have time to say anything about Lu Qing's explanation.
Master Qiu, who was standing by, could no longer bear it and started to yell.
"How can you, a mere third-level golden elixir cultivator, refine such an exquisite talisman as the [Thunder Talisman]?
Boy, this is not the way you brag.
Do you think that we are ignorant of the way of talismans and can be fooled by you?"
"That's right!" Master Zhao also said, "Since you said that the Thunder Talisman was made by you, do you have any proof?"
At this time, the owner of Zhenbao Tower also came to his senses.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Friend Lu, it's not that I don't believe you, but this is too unbelievable.
It's hard to believe that a masterpiece like the Thunder Talisman was created by you."
"Exquisite, a masterpiece?"
However, this time, it was Lu Qing's turn to be stunned.
He didn't expect that these comments would appear on [Thunder Talisman].
After all, it was just a talisman he made casually, and it didn't take much time and effort from engraving to refining.
However, Lu Qing's daze made Master Qiu even more convinced that he was a liar.
He immediately sneered: "See, I said it was impossible. If it was really the talisman he made, how could he not produce the proof?
This guy obviously came to our Treasure House to defraud us!
No, as he is just a mere Jindan realm, he probably doesn't have the courage to do that.
I'm afraid there is someone behind the scenes, working together inside and outside to deceive the host!"
"Qiu Rong! What did you say? Are you saying that I, together with this fellow Daoist Lu, deceived the host?"
Master Wang, who was standing by, couldn't help himself and started asking questions immediately.
"I didn't say that." Master Qiu continued to sneer, "But it was you who showed us the Thunder Talisman, and it was you who touted it as a masterpiece by a master talisman maker.
Now it seems that this talisman is quite strange and good, but its true origin is probably intriguing. "
"What nonsense! Why would I make up such a lie that can be easily exposed?" Master Wang said angrily.
"Then I don't know. Maybe you are old and confused."
"You!" Master Wang was so angry that his face turned red.
Not only was he slandered, but he was also called an old fool to his face. Even with his good self-control, he couldn't help but get angry.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Seeing the two of them quarreling so uncontrollably in front of outsiders, the owner of Zhenbao Tower's eyes turned cold and a chill emanated from his body.
Master Qiu and Master Wang were suddenly startled and dared not argue anymore.
At this time, Lu Qing also figured it out.
It seems that his [Thunder Talisman] has caused quite a stir in the Treasure House.
And judging from everyone's reactions, he seemed to have underestimated the value of the [Thunder Talisman].
He originally thought that the Treasure House approached him because the low cost of the [Thunder Talisman] attracted them and they wanted to cooperate.
Now it seems that things are slightly different from what he expected.
"Friend Lu, you have also seen that what you said is too hard to believe.
Even the appraisal masters in my Treasure House are arguing about this.
I wonder if you can find a way to prove that the [Thunder Talisman] was indeed created by you?"
After scolding Master Qiu and the other two, the owner of the Treasure Tower turned around and continued to speak gently to Lu Qing.
Seeing this, Lu Qing couldn't help but sigh that this person's demeanor was indeed extraordinary.
In this situation, everyone remained polite and did not lose their composure.
"Of course I can." Lu Qing nodded slightly. "If you want to prove that the Thunder Talisman was made by me, that's easy. I will just make another one in front of you all."
After saying that, a piece of crystal jade appeared in Lu Qing's hand.
