Chapter 374 The Bizarre Outcome of the Deal



The Ling family in the eastern part of the Holy Land.

Three days passed quickly.

Qin Feng sensed that the effect of the Silver Moon Judgment was getting weaker and weaker. At this time, Qin Feng's own cultivation level recovered to the late stage of Golden Core.

His spiritual essence has recovered to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and with the help of the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl, he can exert the strength of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm.

Qin Feng returned to the square, and to his surprise, he found that the Ling family members did not look well.

That shouldn't be the case. Weren't they out buying and selling magical artifacts and treasures, making a lot of money from spirit stones? Why would they have such expressions?

Qin Feng sat back down in his original spot, and Ling Yuwei and Ling Hao also returned, their expressions equally grim.

He casually set up a soundproof array.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Ling Hao didn't hide anything, and sighed:

"Sigh, I don't know what's going on. So many people came this time, but the transaction volume was just average. These people bought too little, far exceeding expectations."

People from other factions were alright; they just bought less. But the people from the three great dynasties and the four great families were just going through the motions this time; some didn't even buy a single item.

Qin Feng wasn't very familiar with these market conditions, so he tentatively asked, "It's possible that they just don't need it, which is quite normal, isn't it?"

Ling Hao shook his head and explained:

"No, the Holy Domain is a place of constant conflict. Whether fighting with people or hunting monsters, it causes great damage to weapons."

Especially for these mid-to-low-end magical artifacts, spiritual weapons, and magical treasures, they can all be said to have fixed wear and tear, so there's no such thing as not needing to wear them.

Needless to say, those high-end weapons are even more precious; each one can be considered a treasure. The three great dynasties and the four great families were drooling with excitement, and the sales this time were only so-so.

The amount they purchase from our Ling family each time is enormous, which is why we hold the Ling family competition on this day.

This is both a weapons exhibition and a talent test for the Ling family.

Qin Feng realized something was wrong after hearing Ling Hao's words.

Ling Yuwei added with great concern:

"If we can't sell the finished products, our cash flow will break down."

It's manageable in the short term, but if it goes on for a long time without sufficient funds, then it will be troublesome.

"If we don't get a sufficient supply of refining materials, our family's disciples won't get enough training, and our refining skills will inevitably decline, creating a vicious cycle."

After Ling Yuwei's analysis, Qin Feng realized that this matter was not simple; it was very likely a challenge specifically designed by various forces to target the Ling family.

He comforted him:

"Don't be in a hurry. According to what you said, your Ling family's weapons are famous throughout the Tianxuan Dynasty."

Even the three great dynasties and four great families can't compare to you, so you must have something special about you. The fact that they bought from you before proves that.

You need to understand that everything is a two-way street. If they don't purchase weapons from you for a long time, it's not a good thing for them either.

This situation won't last long, so you can rest assured.

However, someone is definitely interfering in this matter. You can think back to whether there have been any recent changes or unusual occurrences within the family; perhaps that will help you resolve this predicament.

When Ling Yuwei and Ling Hao heard Qin Feng's clear and logical analysis, their eyes lit up, and they immediately felt that things were not so panicked anymore.

Ling Hao suddenly remembered something and clapped his hands.

"Yeah, Brother Feng, you're amazing! Your analysis is spot on!"

Our weapons are of superior quality and priced slightly lower than other weapons of the same level, giving us an advantage in both quality and price.

There's no reason they would choose someone else than our Ling family.

Ling Yuwei calmed down as well. "Qin Feng is right. There's nothing particularly unusual about the family, but there's something I feel is a bit off about something just now."

Qin Feng gave Ling Yuwei an approving look; this woman was quite clever and quick-witted, noticing it so soon.

"Oh, what is it? Can you tell me about it?"

Ling Yuwei nodded without hesitation and recalled:

"It's normal that the Ling family is very dissatisfied with the outcome of this transaction."

However, some people actually blamed this incident on my father, saying that it was due to my father's incompetent leadership.

I was very angry before and even argued with the other party, without thinking about the strangeness of the situation.

Looking back now, this does seem problematic, and its veracity remains to be verified.

Ling Hao also began to recall when suddenly he let out a strange cry.

"Sister, I remember now, the one who led the way was Ling Huan, he was from the same lineage as Fifth Uncle Ling Yuntao."

Fifth Uncle and Eldest Uncle had a very good relationship. When Eldest Uncle and Father were competing for the position of head of the family, Fifth Uncle supported Eldest Uncle.

He's been getting really close to his uncle lately, and his uncle's been constantly giving Dad trouble. If I'm not mistaken, it's his uncle's doing.

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, as this was exactly what he had guessed.

Ling Yunbo is indeed up to no good; you can tell from the fact that he was chatting happily with the people from the Burning Heaven Sect.

Qin Feng had a question: with the Ling family having an ancestor named Ling Wushang, Ling Yunbo's actions should not have escaped his notice, so why didn't he intervene?

When Ling Yuwei saw Ling Hao say it so casually, she glared at him. She looked around and was relieved when she found that no one else reacted.

Qin Feng noticed her actions and reassured her, "Don't worry, I just set up a soundproof array, so no one outside can hear our conversation."
