Chapter 1764: Expensive Treasures (1/2)
Li Qiye was indeed very bizarre as a mortal taking three cultivators on a shopping trip. The three cultivators looked like young brides following behind him. Their inexperience was clearly written on their face.
This mortal was the complete opposite. He strode confidently regardless of the location and perplexed everyone. This might be the fiercest mortal the people here had ever seen.
The workers here were discerning enough to know that Li Qiye was the leader of the group. Of course, this made them feel sad as well. Even though the other three obviously came from a small sect, they were still cultivators. s.h.i.+ Sou’s cultivation wasn’t much in the grand scheme of thing but he was still someone influential in his own pond.
Normally, even cultivators from smaller sects wouldn’t care for mortals; they considered mortals no different from insects. But now, Li Qiye looked like the big shot in the group while the other three resembled servants.
One worker, in particular, didn’t think profit was possible but he still enthusiastically came up and greeted: “Sir, what are you looking for?”
“I’m seeing if your store has any treasure worth looking at.” Li Qiye chuckled and said.
The worker was stunned at this outrageous mortal. Normally, mortals would already tremble just standing by the door but this guy was different with his tone. Even kings wouldn’t dare to say something like this when they came to shop for treasures and ores.
Shen Xiaoshan group was scared out of their mind to hear Li Qiye. Xiaoshan’s palms were drenched in cold sweat because she knew that Li Qiye had nothing in his pocket. This still didn’t deter him from speaking in his boastful manner. If people were to find out, they would laugh until the group hides down a hole.
However, this worked had seen all types of people before. He smiled and brought Li Qiye to a counter and carefully introduced him: “What do you think about this treasure? This Lionthorn Flexible Armor is a Dao King level armor. You will be very safe wearing it, especially because it is a defensive artifact, thus it doesn’t matter if your chaos energy and vitality are too weak.”
The group was instantly drawn in by the armor. Even He Chen was smacking his lips. Their sect only had one weapon at the Dao King level, their strongest. Their master was using it since he was also the strongest member of the sect.
All three really liked it since they were satisfied with just having a Dao King artifact. The actual quality didn’t matter.
Of course, after seeing the price, they realized all they could do was look since they couldn’t afford it at all. Even their master couldn’t.
Li Qiye didn’t even bother to look and said: “Forget it, show me the real defining artifacts in this place.”
The three were astonished even more because they thought Li Qiye couldn’t get any more domineering but he proved them wrong. The worker was stunned too. This was the most unbridled mortal he had ever seen.
Keep in mind that even some kings and sect masters couldn’t afford some of the treasure in their shop. But now, this guy wanted to see the real deals? There was no word to describe this mortal.
A few cultivators and experts in the shop heard him as well. They glanced at him several more times and thought that this mortal was too arrogant.
“Is this guy a newly rich? He doesn’t know the immensity of the heaven and earth.” One cultivator shook his head. [1]
