Chapter 9: Making Money



A path was spontaneously made in the crowded crowd, and two young men in red clothes and armed with cloud-patterned swords walked in.

The man in the lead had a full forehead, straight eyes and a square face, and his appearance could be described as righteous. There were three white lines on his chest, just like the Tianjian Sect, which represented the high status of the disciples. I'm afraid he must be the eldest disciple under a certain elder. The status of the person behind him was lower than his, but not low either.

When the righteous man saw Fang Youde, his sword-like brows immediately knitted up: "Fang Youde, it's you again!"

Yi Xichen jumped up quickly: "Big Brother, this Fang Quede must be pretending to be a disciple of your Xuanqing Sect, right? I just exposed his trick. Otherwise, if he was allowed to do whatever he wanted, I really don't know how much shame he would bring to your Xuanqing Sect."

The righteous face said angrily: "He was expelled from our Xuanqing Sect several years ago, but he still uses the name of our Xuanqing Sect to deceive people outside. It's really despicable!"

He walked forward, picked up Fang Youde, and said loudly: "Although this man has long been expelled from the Xuanqing Sect, he was once a disciple of our sect. It is because we did not discipline him strictly. This time I will take him back and report to the uncles. I will abolish his cultivation as a severe punishment. Please forgive me."

Yi Xichen hurriedly said: "Brother, don't be in a hurry to leave. He owes me a hundred times the bet!"

He looked at him with a righteous face, thought for a moment, took off his Qiankun bag and threw it to him: "I didn't bring too many spiritual stones with me when I traveled. Take a look at this and see if it's enough for you to pay me back."

Yi Xichen opened the bag and took a look. There were four high-level spirit stones, thirty or so intermediate spirit stones, and several primary spirit stones. One high-level spirit stone could be exchanged for ten or so intermediate spirit stones. All these together, although not as much as the hundredfold compensation Fang Youde promised him, he still made a lot. Moreover, the spirit stones in this bag were almost all of fire attribute. Fire spirit stones were produced in the back mountain of Xuanqing Sect, but it was relatively difficult for disciples of Tianjian Sect to obtain fire spirit stones. So he smiled and said, "For the sake of my senior brother, I'll give you a discount. That's enough."

The righteous man hummed and motioned for his junior fellow apprentice to collect the spiritual stones on the turntable and pay them back if any victim came to claim compensation. Then he took Fang Youde's sword and left.

Yi Xichen received back his and his grandson Zijun's spiritual stones, as well as a bunch of compensation. He emerged from the crowd with a smile on his face: "I'm rich, I've earned a lot of spiritual stones, we can buy a lot of things!"

The eldest grandson, Zijun, didn't care about this little bit of spiritual stones. In the fan world eight years later, he was already rich enough to buy several spiritual mountains as a love nest for him and Yi Xichen. However, seeing Yi Xichen's joy after working so hard to earn spiritual stones, his mood also became brighter.

Yi Xichen pulled his eldest grandson, Zijun, to a quiet place, and quietly turned over his palm to show him. Inside was the black fire stone that he had just broken into two pieces. The black fire stone has extremely strong spiritual power and can be used to make many mechanisms. Yi Xichen had wanted to get one for a long time, but unfortunately he couldn't afford it even if he sold all his money. He said proudly: "I got this thing. Just now, the people from Xuanqing Sect robbed me of a lot of fire spirit stones. Let's go back and ask Master for help. We can definitely fix this black fire stone!"

"good."

The two continued to walk deeper into the market. This time, Yi Xichen was much more generous. In addition to the Zongshan black iron to strengthen his sword, he also bought a lot of useful immortal materials.

The eldest grandson, Zijun, suddenly stopped in front of a stall. Yi Xichen noticed that the eldest grandson, Zijun, had not followed him, so he turned around and ran back, only to find that he was staring at a ball of ice silk. Yi Xichen asked, "Do you want this?"

"Um."

Ice silk can be used to refine water-attributed pills, or woven into Taoist robes. It is cool and smooth, and can harmonize the inner fire of the monks, and is very effective in preventing the occurrence of demonic possession. The eldest grandson, Jun, now really needs to use ice silk to make a pair of underpants to prevent his little brother from exploding.

Yi Xichen didn't know what Chang Sun Zijun wanted to do with this thing, but Chang Sun Zijun gave him all the spirit stones, so if Chang Sun Zijun wanted to buy it, he would buy it. The stall owner was a female cultivator, and Yi Xichen knew why she hadn't spoken a word - although Chang Sun Zijun was a rare spiritual root in a hundred years, and his cultivation was improving faster than anyone else, he had a fatal weakness, and that was women.

He doesn't talk much, and he can't even knock a woman out even if he hits her with three sticks. He will never hit a woman in a fight. This is the setting of the original novel, and the fan fiction author also uses it. Whenever the fan fiction author wants to abuse Yi Xichen, he will create a female villain and give Yi Xichen an abortion pill or something. Every time he abuses her, he hits the mark.

Yi Xichen quickly put on a big smile: "This senior sister is really beautiful."

There is no woman who doesn't like to be praised. The female monk touched her face and a blush appeared on her face.

"Did you make this robe yourself? The floating cloud pattern is so beautiful. You have such a skillful hand."

"Really? Thank you." The female monk quickly straightened her robe and tucked her hair behind her ears.

"Senior sister, how much is this ball of ice silk?"

"Five intermediate spirit stones."

Yi Xichen puffed his cheeks in distress. The price was fair, but five intermediate spirit stones were not a small amount for them. Even though they had just made a fortune, they could not squander it. He continued to praise the female monk eloquently and asked, "Sister, can you make it cheaper? I really like your things, but I don't have many spirit stones left. How about four? Sell it to me for four?"

The female monk hesitated for a moment, and when she saw that the two sword masters were handsome and spoke in a pleasant way, she was about to agree, but she didn't expect that a Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway.

"I want this ball of ice silk. I'll give you six intermediate spirit stones!"

The two looked back and saw that the annoying Cheng Yaojin was none other than Xiao Kui!

"Tsk." The eldest grandson Zijun showed a look of disgust.

Xiao Kui was once again looked down upon. He was so angry that he took out six intermediate spirit stones from his pocket and slapped them on the stall: "This ball of ice silk belongs to me!"

The female monk was stunned for a moment, looking at this and that, and hesitantly reached out to take the spirit stone. Even if the two young Taoist priests who came first looked more pleasing to the eye, no one would be reluctant to pay more when setting up a stall to do business.

"Wait a minute." Yi Xichen glanced at Xiao Kui coldly. The smile on his face had completely disappeared, and his eyes were full of hostility. He said, "I came here first, and I also offer six spiritual stones. Senior sister, are you going to sell it to me or to him?"

Just as the female monk was about to answer, Xiao Kui generously threw out two more coins: "Then I'll give you eight!"

This was a blatant provocation. Xiao Kui didn't need any ice silkworm silk at all. He just wanted to find fault and make things difficult for Chang Sun Zijun and Yi Xichen. Chang Sun Zijun humiliated him in front of Shennong Temple that day, causing him to be pointed at wherever he went recently. He was so angry that he hid in his room every night and made a vampire. Today, the enemies met and were particularly hostile to each other. He was determined to get back at them no matter what.

Yi Xichen secretly clenched his fist. Eight intermediate spirit stones might not be a big deal for the disciples of the Sword Refining Pavilion, but for the disciples of the Medicine Pavilion, they could only save this much in half a year. He couldn't afford to raise the price, and even if he raised the price, Xiao Kui would definitely continue to raise it.

The eldest grandson, Jun, suddenly took off his purse, poured out the spirit stones in his palm and began to count them.

Yi Xichen and Xiao Kui were both startled by him, thinking that he was going to bid the lowest price. Xiao Kui quickly stretched his neck to take a look, and found that his eldest grandson Zijun only had ten intermediate spirit stones in his hand, and immediately revealed a smug smile.

"Hey, you dare to go out to the market with such a small amount of spirit stones?" Xiao Kui collected the intermediate spirit stone he had just thrown out, and arrogantly slapped a high-level spirit stone, "Frost Silk, it belongs to me!"

Xiao Kui bought the ice silk, and he was so proud that his tail was about to fly up to the sky. He turned around holding the silk, and was about to appreciate the frustrated expressions of his eldest grandson Zijun and Yi Xichen, but he found that there was no one behind him.

Xiao Kui: “!!!”

The two men had already walked away leisurely, not caring about the ice silk at all. On the contrary, Xiao Kui spent more than twice the price to buy something he had no use for, which was extremely stupid.

Xiao Kui was so angry that he was going crazy!

Yi Xichen leaned close to his eldest grandson Zijun's ear and whispered, "You scared me just now. I thought you wanted to fight him to the end."

The eldest grandson, Jun, was innocent: "I just counted them. You can't buy that thing anywhere else."

"Haha." Yi Xichen was overjoyed. "Let's continue shopping. I don't believe Xiao Kui can buy all the ice silkworms in the market."

When he turned around, he saw Xiao Kui following them with a sullen face. It looked like he was really planning to confront them today.
