Chapter 280 - The Man with Five Black Lines (2/2)

The alley itself was a dead end, as the path was blocked by a wall.

The two Martial Ancestor Realm experts immediately went forward and hurdled over the wall. With a glance, as expected, Qin Nan’s figure had long disappeared from the alley.

“Gasp, how did he know there was an alley here? And to create such a huge distance in just an instant, there is no doubt that he had been planning for this for quite a while. Otherwise, there is no way he could escape from us without using his cultivation…”

The two Martial Ancestor Realm experts felt incredibly unpleasant at that instant.

It was their first time losing sight of their target, not to mention that he was only a mere half-Martial Emperor Realm cultivator.

……

……

“This Jianghuang City is indeed disturbed.”

Qin Nan walked on one of the main streets. When he walked past the stalls, the merchants shuddered and stared at him with icy glances.

“I have to find a way to get rid of this mark!”

Qin Nan took a deep breath. These three black lines were actually very annoying for him, as disturbing as what the white-shirted lady had mentioned.

Even though, with the Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit, Qin Nan was able to discover extraordinary treasures being sold at low prices, he had no chance of buying them as the merchants would not be willing to trade with him.

At that instant, a sudden yell was heard, ‘Buddy, hey buddy, wait up!”

Qin Nan stopped in his tracks and glanced at the stranger.

There is someone calling out to me despite my three black lines?

He could only see a skinny young man with a yellow skin tone and a pair of triangular-shaped eyes standing in front of a stall, showing his teeth as he smiled with quite a perverted expression, “Buddy, I assume that you are feeling down judging by your dull expression. Come over here, I’ve got authentic Emperor Weapons here being sold at a cheap price. If you were to buy some of them, and experience their power, I believe you will be enlightened!”

“Emperor Weapons?”

Qin Nan was startled, before he glanced at the stall and saw a saber, a sword, and a spear lying still on it. The aura flowing out from the weapons was no doubt the aura of Emperor Weapons!

How significant were Emperor Weapons?

The sect heirloom treasure of the Mystic Spirit Sect—the Sect Leader’s Hall—was an Emperor Weapon itself!

“Oh? What price are you selling them for?”

Qin Nan was slightly interested.

The perverted-looking young man seemed to be unaffected by the three black lines on him, and still dared to sell him stuff. There must be something fishy here.

“Not expensive, not expensive at all. One hundred Arcane Realm Stones each…” The perverted-looking young man reached out his fingers and stared at Qin Nan with a pair of fiery eyes, causing Qin Nan to instinctively shudder violently.

“One hundred Arcane Realm Stones? That cheap?”

Qin Nan was slightly surprised.

Although one hundred Arcane Realm Stones was quite a fortune, it was nowhere enough to buy an Emperor Weapon. The lowest price of an Emperor Weapon was at least two hundred Arcane Realm Stones.

“Such a low price, and not being scared of my three black lines, something’s definitely not right!”

Qin Nan could not help but think to himself.

To his surprise, the perverted-looking young man seemed to have read his mind, as he let out a chuckle and said, “Buddy, are you feeling confused? Why is the price so cheap? Don’t you worry, don’t be afraid, if you were to use your eye technique and take a peek at these Emperor Weapons, you will find them to be authentic!”

Qin Nan squinted his eyes.

He was aware that some of the merchants would use some kind of secret technique to manipulate Houtian Weapons so that they would emit the auras of Emperor Weapons, to trick the buyers.

“This guy is behaving so strangely. I shall see what he is trying to hide.”

Qin Nan was not too interested with the Emperor Weapons. In fact, he was more interested with the young man, as he gazed at him with his Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit. Following this, his expression was replaced by utter shock.

Five… Five black lines?
