Chapter 267: Chapter 236: Playing Dumb to Catch a Tiger_1

Golden Core Late Stage!

Xu Mu’s brow furrowed slightly.

Liu Wuheng didn’t deliberately conceal his cultivation level; Xu Mu noticed it at a glance.

“Friend, you need not worry. I am only here to sell some pills,” Xu Mu said calmly.

“A meeting is fate! You should come to sit more often in the future. I would be very happy to welcome you! As for the pills, may I have a look at them first?” Liu Wuheng suggested politely.

“Of course!”

Xu Mu nodded, taking out the Dust Reduction Pill and Hao Yuan Pill and handed them directly to Liu Wuheng.

Looking at the pills handed over, Liu Wuheng’s heart gave a start.

These two vials of pills were worth over a thousand top-grade spirit stones. If the other party could give them to him so generously, he was either incredibly naive or very confident in his powers, unafraid of being taken advantage of.

Anyone who could cultivate to the Golden Core Stage wouldn’t be a fool, so the reason was clear.

‘This is my territory, and I have two men on the outside. Where does he get this confidence from?’

Thoughts raced through Liu Wuheng’s mind.

Initially, he thought he could easily handle Xu Mu, but now Xu Mu’s actions had left him somewhat uncertain.

After all, in the Cultivation Realm, there were many who loved to appear weaker than they truly were.

No one knew if the other person was intentionally hiding their cultivation level.

Liu Wuheng suppressed his thoughts and decided to finalize this deal first.

These two types of pills were rare in the marketplace. They were of such a high quality that even he had never seen them before. If he could buy these pills, the strength of his forces would at least double.

Compared to the increase in power, a thousand top-grade spirit stones were nothing.

Once he had power, would he still lack spirit stones?

With lightning-fast thoughts, Liu Wuheng discreetly accepted the pills, poured out one from each bottle and placed it on his palm. He then examined them carefully with his Divine Intent and various methods.

It took him about an incense stick’s time to finish his examination.

After all, this was a transaction worth over a thousand top-grade spirit stones. Even as someone at the late Golden Core Stage, he had to be careful. If he were to buy counterfeit goods, the losses would be significant.

Moreover, these pills were related to upgrades. Even a small problem could cost a cultivator their life. By that time, his loss would be more than just spirit stones.

“The pills are fine, but isn’t the price of a thousand top-grade spirit stones a little too high? What do you think of eight hundred spirit stones?”

Liu Wuheng held the pill bottle in his hand and began to bargain.

Over a thousand top-grade spirit stones was not a small amount to any Golden Core cultivator. Without his backing from the black market, he might not even be able to afford it.

“I have said before that I do not negotiate. If you think the price is too high, then I can only find another place to sell!”

Xu Mu subtly touched his storage bag at his waist, then reached out towards Liu Wuheng.

The moment Xu Mu touched his storage bag, Liu Wuheng’s heart skipped a beat. He inexplicably felt a sense of danger, as if something terrifying inside was fixating on him.

“Ha ha! Well, let’s just stick to your price!”

Liu Wuheng suddenly laughed.

He put the two pill bottles into his storage bag and simultaneously took out over a thousand top-grade spirit stones to give to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu accepted the spirit stones without any hesitations, counted them twice in front of Liu Wuheng, and then put them into his storage bag.

After the trade was completed, Xu Mu didn’t leave immediately. He took out a list from his bag and gave it to Liu Wuheng, saying, “I would also like to buy some alchemy materials. Do you have any here?”

Liu Wuheng’s eyes flickered. He didn’t speak, but took the list and began reading it.

‘Yuan Yang Heart Grass, Dried Heart Meteor Vine, Rare Heaven Chrysanthemum, tier nine Purple Ganoderma, Fall Heart Dew… Tian Yuan Fruit, Cold Spirit Ghost Flower, Flame Blood Heart Lingzhi, Seven Star Purple Orchid…’
