Chapter 266: Exchange Of Goods (1/2)

Lin Mu was a bit surprised by the mannerisms of the man called Jingming Shang, but it seemed like the pair of grandfather and granddaughter, Jing Wei and Duan Ke were used to it. It was as if they had seen this many times before and were not bothered by it, even if the man did try to flirt with Duan Ke.

But from the previous interaction, Lin Mu could tell that this man Jingming Shang was not as strong as Duan Ke, who was at the peak stage of the Core condensation realm. But he did seem stronger than Hei Yingjie, or at least as strong as him.

'Hmm, so he's at least at the mid stage of the core condensation realm. I can't tell if that's good or not.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

”Alright, that's enough of your acts. We have a lot to do today. First of all, let us clear out the previous stock.” Duan Ke suddenly said, not wanting to see more of Jingming Shang's dramatics.

”If lady Duan Ke says so…” Jingming Shang agreed and then took out a bracelet from his wrist.

The bracelet had been hidden under his sleeves, thus Lin Mu had not seen it. But now that he saw it, he could instantly tell that it was a spatial storage treasure. Duan Ke took the bracelet and went to the back room for a few minutes before returning with it.

She handed it back to Jingming Shang, who took it and closed his eyes for a minute before opening it. This time he had a new glint in his eyes, as if he had found something that he liked.

”Ahh, the goods this time are quite good. I even see a lot of spirit beast cores. Oh? And what's this… A core condensation realm beast core? That too one that awakened a bloodline ability, excellent!” Jingming Shang praised.

Lin Mu had not thought that the man was here to buy all the things that he had sold to Duan Ke before. He had thought that perhaps they were using it to make items of their own, but now it seemed to be unlikely.

”I have more, give me another spatial storage treasure. Or perhaps you can just carry them out yourself.” Duan Ke spoke again.

”What is it? I hope it's as good as this.” Jingming Shang asked.

”It is beast materials. Pelts, bones and components such as that.” Duan Ke replied.

”Ah, that needs no spatial treasure. I'll get the servants to carry it out.” Jingming Shang said.

”Alright, tell them to come in through the backyard's door. I'll put them there… there's a large quantity.” Duan Ke said.

Jingming Shang had an intrigued look on his face, but he did not question Duan Ke. He simply went out for a few seconds and came back.

”They're entering the yard.” He said.

”Good,” Duan Ke said and secretly gestured with her hand. ”The goods have already been put in the yard.” She added.

Jingming Shang raised his brows in response and waited for his servants to report to him.

Lin Mu had seen what Duan Ke had done there. He had felt the formation array activate for a bit, and spatial fluctuations appeared. Another thing was that there was no entrance to a yard before and now that he observed with his spirit sense, there clearly was another door to the side of the building which was not there before.

”Seems like the work of the Myriad Armament Canopy Abode's formation array.” Lin Mu inwardly muttered.

Five minutes later a knock was heard on the door of the shop and a middle aged man dressed in a steward's clothes walked in. The man cupped his hands in greetings to everyone in the room in a servile manner. Lin Mu could tell that the man was a servant and was a bit surprised as he could even feel spirit qi fluctuation from the man.
