Lin Feng smiled and stepped into the dimly lit shop.
His gaze quickly swept over the dusty clutter on the shelves and soon settled on a few inconspicuous pieces of ore.
“Boss, how much are these stones?” Lin Feng’s voice broke the silence in the shop.
Flender, lounging on the recliner, lazily opened one eye, glanced in the direction Lin Feng was pointing, and casually asked, “Oh?
Are you going to take them all, sir?”
Lin Feng nodded.
He knew nothing about ore and didn’t know which piece it was, but it didn’t matter.
It was always better to take it all with him than to let it go unpunished!
“All of it, one hundred gold coins,” Flender quoted a price without even lifting his eyelids.
Lin Feng frowned slightly, wondering if he would have to raise the price again if he readily agreed.
‘Sure enough, this guy is a real shrewd businessman, and his obsession with gold soul coins is just as strong as mine!’
‘How dare a few broken stones demand a hundred gold coins from me?’
‘How is this any different from outright robbery?
No, this is robbery!’
“Too expensive, make it cheaper.” Lin Feng said calmly.
“It won’t be cheaper.”
Flender remained nonchalant, even turning his back to him, saying, “Where did this kid come from?
Buy it or not, it’s up to you.”
‘Oh?’
Lin Feng laughed.
Flender should be a level 78 Soul Saint at this time.
He wasn’t afraid at all.
So what if he was a Soul Douluo now?
‘Indulging you?
Not a chance!’
Without saying a word, he stepped forward, grabbed the few pieces of ore, and slammed them onto the old wooden table next to him.
“Smack!”
Ten gleaming gold coins were neatly stacked on the table.
“I think it’s worth the price.”
Lin Feng grabbed the ore, turned around and walked out, his movements fluid and without hesitation.
“friend!”
Flender sprang up from the recliner, his voice tinged with coldness.
An aura of power belonging to the Soul Saint level surged towards Lin Feng.
“Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”
He thought Lin Feng would be shocked, but he didn’t see what he expected.
Lin Feng stopped in his tracks, slowly turned around, and instead of fear, a playful smile appeared on his face: “You shrewd merchant, are you sure you don’t want me to leave?”
“I think these stones are worth ten gold coins, maybe you’ll even make a profit?”
“Death is inevitable for everyone; some deaths are heavier than a mountain, while others are inexplicable.
Is that what they mean…”
He fiddled with the ore in his hand and continued, “Dare to say you won’t sell, and I’ll kill you.”
“ha!”
Flender chuckled in exasperation.
Had he run into a delusional teenager?
Does anyone really think he’s just an ordinary person?
His face was mocking, and his oppressive aura gradually intensified, as he wanted to force this arrogant young man in front of him to the ground.
“Quite the boast, young man, you’ve got guts…”
Before he could finish speaking, Flender’s voice abruptly stopped!
An even more terrifying pressure descended upon him.
This oppressive force instantly suppressed him completely.
“Well!”
Flender groaned, feeling short of breath, his heart pounding, and cold sweat instantly soaking his back.
The shadow of death has never been so clear.
He looked at Lin Feng in utter shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The level of this pressure far exceeded his own, even surpassing that of a Soul Saint; he simply couldn’t resist it.
“Ten gold coins, can I sell it?” Lin Feng’s voice remained calm.
Flender was a shrewd man; after a brief exchange, he had already recognized the difference in skill between the two.
The other party wasn’t bluffing at all; they genuinely had the ability to kill him.
A wise person knows when to yield; money is certainly not as important as life!
“Sell!
Sell!
I’ll sell it for ten gold coins!”
Flender nodded frantically, afraid that if he hesitated even a second longer, the other party would change their mind.
Anyway, he didn’t spend much money to buy these broken stones, and he could still make a profit of ten gold coins.
Lin Feng grinned upon hearing this.
‘Trying to scam me out of my gold coins?
No way!’
He wouldn’t have given ten gold coins if he hadn’t been certain there was a piece of ore containing plate crystals inside.
He withdrew the oppressive aura he had released, and a harmless smile returned to his face:
“Why are you so nervous?
Don’t worry, I’m not a good person.”
“If you’re going to do business properly, then do it right.
If you’d done this earlier, it would have saved everyone a lot of trouble.
I didn’t expect you to be so easy to talk to, boss…”
He continued talking to himself, without even looking at Flender’s expression.
He weighed the ore in his hand, then turned and leisurely walked out of the shop.
Until Lin Feng’s figure completely disappeared around the street corner.
Flender slumped into the recliner, panting heavily and wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
He had clearly felt that chilling killing intent just now.
He was certain that if he had been a little more assertive just now…
He might already be a corpse by now.
With that kind of strength, no one in this place can do anything to him.
This is really too much!
What do you mean he’s easy to talk to?
It’s so frustrating, so incredibly frustrating.
But we really couldn’t beat them; we were already at a huge disadvantage in terms of sheer momentum.
“Could he be a Titled Douluo?
Impossible!
How could he be so young…”
Although he was still shaken, he reached out to collect the ten gold coins on the table, for at this moment only the gold coins could bring him comfort.
Just as his finger touched the table.
“Snap—”
The seemingly intact old wooden table collapsed without warning, turning into a pile of finely cut wood chips!
Gold coins clattered and rolled among the wood chips.
Flender’s heart skipped a beat, and he felt a chill run down his spine; he was clearly quite frightened.
He abruptly pulled his hand back, his heart nearly leaping out of his throat!
Cold sweat soaked his clothes again.
That’s terrifying, absolutely terrifying.
“When did he…
when did he do it?”
He didn’t even see the other person make any unnecessary movements!
“When did such a menacing figure arrive in Soto City?”
Flender, still shaken, looked at the pile of wood chips and scattered gold coins and felt that this was no place to stay any longer.
“I can’t afford to mess with him!
I can’t stay here any longer, I have to leave right now!”
He could no longer care about anything else.
He hurriedly swept the gold coins into his pocket, locked the shop door, and rushed off towards Shrek Academy without looking back.
All he wanted now was to get as far away from that terrifying young man as possible!
Hotel Suite
Lin Feng spent half a day wandering around outside, and also sampled some local snacks.
Time flew by.
On his way back, he made a point of packing up a few snacks that looked pretty good.
Pushing open the door to the suite, he saw Zhu Zhuqing sitting alone in the shadows by the window, staring blankly out the window, not even reacting to his arrival.
The afterglow of the setting sun outlined her slender yet stubborn profile, carrying a sense of broken loneliness.
He thought to himself, “It seems this girl is quite badly hurt.”
“Disciple, dinner is ready.”
Lin Feng placed the takeout box on the table, being unusually generous for once…!
“Here, this meal…
is on me.”
