Chapter 558 (2/2)

“What had happened?!” The Rain Sovereign asked via telepathy after noticing Revered Sage’s expression.

“Chu Chang An has cut off my senses!” Revered Sage replied with gritted teeth.

“Chu Chang An, huh… The Rain Sovereign’s eyes flashed with a cold glint.

Inside the heavenly dwelling space, Chu Chang An started rubbing his hands with excitement after concealing the both of them from Revered Sage’s senses and said to Ning Fan with an apologetic smile. ”

“Hehe. This blood-red handkerchief can shield one from the Heaven’s secret. Do you know that this Heaven Stage is being spied upon by someone using a secret technique? The Rain Sovereign seems to have suspicions on you… You have to be extra cautious in the upcoming four stages.”

Chu Chang An seemed like he wanted to express goodwill to Ning fan by shielding the two of them from Revered Sage’s senses.

“Elder Chu, thank you for your reminder. However, I am absolutely certain that I don’t have any unpresentable secret. It’s fine if someone wants to pry into me. If they can’t find the result they desire, they will probably dismiss their enmity against me. If I hide myself from their senses, I’m afraid it will make things worse instead and draw even more doubts and suspicions on me.

“Hehe. This young friend is very confident. Since you aren’t afraid of being spied on, my action is superfluous. After we finish the trade, I’ll take off the blood-red handkerchief. For now, however, as I still need to make a deal with you, it’s still better to prevent anyone from spying on us.”

Chu Chang An took in a deep breath. He knew that they were going to talking about the serious matter next.

“I’ve sensed a trace of blood dragon qi from you… If I am not wrong, it’s the qi of blood dragon bones. Moreover, the level of the blood dragon bones isn’t low. Apparently, it’s… the bones of an immortal blood dragon! I wish to trade for the bones with you!”

Chu Chang An looked as if he was seeking for confirmation from Ning Fan. He wanted to see whether his guess was correct and whether that blood dragon bones was at the heavenly demon grade from Ning Fan’s facial expression.

However, Ning Fan was constantly maintaining his faint smile while his eyes were deep, making Chu Chang An unable to notice any emotion in him. The failure of obtaining an answer for his guesses filled him with disappointment.

He shook his head and asked with a bitter smile.

“This young friend, please tell me if my guesses are correct?”

*Chi*

Only the sound of a clear and crisp sword shrill that answered to Chu Chang An’s question.

With a flick of his sleeve, Ning Fan was already holding a long sword that had blood light revolving around it in his hand.

It was a long sword that was clear and transparent like a ruby. A few seals were placed on the sword to restrict its power.

Even so, Chu Chang An could still sense a rush of excitement coming from his bloodlines!

“I-Immortal blood dragon bones! It can’t be wrong. This sword is definitely forged using the bones of an immortal blood dragon! Young kid, give me that sword!!!”

Despite the state of mind that Chu Chang An had trained for countless years, he was also taken over by greed the moment he saw the blood sword which urged him to seize the sword from Ning Fan and make it his own.

However, when he saw Ning Fan’s calm and composed eyes, he immediately suppressed his miscellaneous thoughts and let out a few coughs. Then, with an awkward smile, he said.

“I’m sorry. I’ve forgotten my manners.”

“It’s fine. After all, it’s natural for a gentleman to love wealth and treasures. If he obtains it using the right way, there is naturally nothing wrong with it. In fact, I have the willingness to trade this sword with Elder Chu. However, I just wonder what item you can give me in exchange!”

Ning Fan held the blood sword with its tip pointing downward and stood with a faint smile. He remained as calm and collected as usual.

With his current capabilities, it was more than enough for him to keep himself safe. Thus, he was not afraid of Chu Chang An.

All of a sudden, Ning Fan’s calm and leisurely demeanor stunned Chu Chang An. It reminded him of his previous master.

In that year, he was still just a blood dragon which had a low and insignificant cultivation base.

In that year, his master was the Demon Cloud Rain Sovereign whose name shook the entire Rain World. When he was facing tens of millions of enemies during the war of the Nine Worlds, he was also as calm as Ning Fan.

That calmness in him was an attitude, an attitude of being imperturbed in the hour of peril and it had nothing to do with one’s cultivation base.

Chu Chang An got rid of all his other thoughts. Now, he had more respect for Ning Fan. Inwardly, he thought: perhaps within the next few thousand years, this kid will also become a strong being that will be regarded as someone as strong as the Rain Sovereign…

“Since I’ve ascertained that the grade of the blood dragon bones, I’m willing to use three items to exchange for it. This is the first item!”

When Chu Chang An flicked his finger, a blood-red immediately flew toward Ning Fan.

Ning Fan reached out to grab the storage pouch. As he scanned it using his spirit sense, he discovered that there was ten billion immortal jade.

“Not enough!” Ning Fan said indifferently with a neutral expression.

Chu Chang An secretly praised Ning Fan within his mind. If ordinary Void Refinement Realm see such amount of immortal jade, they more or less would be dumbstruck. For Ning Fan, however, he did not even flinch at all. If it wasn’t because he was adept in scheming, it would then be because he was already used to big scenes and would not be shocked by such an amount of immortal jade.

“This young friend, be patient. There is still the second item!”

Chu Chang An sent another storage pouch to Ning Fan. He grabbed and checked it. The items within the pouch were actually ten bottles of Imaginary Sea Pill.

One bottle contained ten pills and there were one hundred pills in that pouch.

Imaginary Sea Pill was a Mid Grade Sixth Revolution Pill. A single pill could give a Void Inquiry Stage expert five thousand units of magic power… Those pills were extremely precious.

If Ning Fan takes every last one of the Imaginary Sea Pills in the ten bottles, his magic power would shoot up by five hundred thousand units!

Even with Ning Fan’s shrewdness, his eyelids could not help but twitch slightly. However, he dismissed that astonishment in his face at the next moment and said with a flat tone.

“Not enough!”

Chu Chang An chuckled dryly. He knew that Ning Fan was not someone who could be satisfied easily.

Luckily, he still had the third item to give him. And Chu Chang An was very confident that the final item could convince Ning Fan.

“Fine… Originally, I was reluctant to take this item out because it’s worth is slightly above that of the heavenly blood dragon bones… However, it is useless to me. Instead of letting it stay idly in the storehouse, it’s better to use it to make a fair trade with you…”

Chu Chang An sighed and sent out a third storage pouch to Ning fan.

As soon as Ning Fan grabbed the storage pouch, he could already sense a massive amount of lightning power from it even before opening it to check what was inside. Furthermore, he even felt that the storage pouch was pounding like a living heart…

When he opened the pouch and took a single glance at the item inside, he immediately took a deep breath and said, “This is enough….”
