AST 235 – Confused heart of Canghai Mingyue
Not only that, there was no need for any comparison at all. The disparity was too great!
“Since you want a 50% discount so much, the offer is five million taels of silver.” Qing Shui smiled lightly at this girl who he was not very interested in.
“5 million taels of silver after a 50% discount? Does he really think that he’s a divine smith from the heavens?!” A youth booed.
“This joke is not funny at all.” The girl stared at Qing Shui. The laughter in her eyes was replaced instantly by provocation.
“Do I look like I’m joking? This is a weapon I forged myself, and nobody is going to force you to buy it.” Qing Shui gazed at the girl with contempt.
The girl was stunned and after recovery, she seriously stared at Qing Shui. To think such a young blacksmith would be able to give her such a feeling. This was the type of guy she liked most and thus she had wanted to use her charm and beauty to seduce him. Initially, she thought that because of his age and inexperienced, he would easily be hooked. Who would have thought that she would come across a tough nail instead?
“How dare you speak to me in this manner?! Are you not afraid I will cause your store to shut down?” A wretched expression flashed in the eyes of the girl as she squinted at Qing Shui.
Looking at the girl who had a cultivation of only 1st grade at the Martial Commander Realm, Qing Shui shook his head. “Don’t waste my time with these words. I have no interest. If you can do it, do it.”
At this moment, Huyou led a horse carriage to the entrance of the store as Qing Shui took the Silver Jagged Sword and walked towards the exit.
When he passed the girl, the female suddenly unleashed a sword blow aiming for his stomach. However, before even the sword could complete its trajectory, Qing Shui responded by executing a casual swipe which ended with his jagged sword on the neck of the girl. His attacks arrived first despite being slower in the execution.
A trace of fresh blood dripped onto the ground, as the jagged sword left behind a faint cut in the neck of the girl. It caused her beautiful countenance to turn pale white, as droplets of her perspiration fell to the ground as though it was raining.
Looking at the slight smile on Qing Shui’s face, she knew that she was hovering between a thin line between life and death.
“Earlier when you struck out, you would already been a corpse by now if you had wanted to kill me. You can leave now. If a situation like this occurs again, do you believe that I would kill you without hesitation?” Qing Shui smiled as he slowly retracted his jagged sword.
The others watched this smiling youthful blacksmith with disbelief in their eyes. These people were all only at the Martial Student Grade. This female, a Martial Commander, probably brought all these people out to exhibit her might which also indicated her arrogance.
Her other identity was that she was a plaything for a very powerful man, an extremely powerful man. Usually men on the streets could only stare at her and fantasize in their hearts despite her flirtations. No one dared to truly act out their desires unless they didn’t want their manhood any longer.
The constitutions of humans in this world of the nine continents were somewhat special. Even ordinary humans would be able to move things that weighed about 200 jin.
After the men shifted the two sets of forging tools over, Qing Shui contemplated the quality of the tools that was clearly higher than what he used before. He gave a satisfactory nod after his observations. After which, the men as well as the pretty girl left, but not before shooting a venomous look at Qing Shui.
“Qing Shui, be careful, that woman has a powerful background.” Huyou stated after everyone left, worry apparent in his eyes.
“Powerful background? What background?” Qing Shui asked with interest. The strongest powers in the Southern City were none other than the Immortal Sword Sect, Joyous Sect, and the Imperial Beast Aristocrat.
“She herself couldn’t be considered much, but she’s the lover of the 3rd Prince from the Imperial Beast Aristocrat. Usually, no one dares to offend her on account of the reputation of the Imperial Beast Aristocrat. I hope she won’t have any malicious thoughts towards you.” Huyou exclaimed worriedly.
“Don’t worry. Tell me, how much do you think this type of weapon could sell for?” Qing Shui smiled and passed the jagged sword in his hands to Huyou.
Huyou studied the sword that Qing Shui passed over, as the crazed admiration on his face already told Qing Shui that he was extremely impressed by the workmanship of this weapon.
After a long moment, Huyou sighed. “It’s a good item but it’s a little lacking. Even if we have something of little value, we can’t say that it’s worth nothing. Just that it’s temporarily unable to fetch a good price.”
Qing Shui actually understood what Huyou was trying to say. After all, this weapon held nothing of interest to Xiantian experts. The Xiantian Realm was a huge watershed that not even one out of 10,000 people would be able to successfully break through. If one considered the total amount of people living in the world of the Nine Continents, there were still several thousand Xiantian level experts around.
