The old man stared at the inheritance pseudo celestial treasure and his eyes revealed an almost undetectable trace of greed.
There was a hint of a smile that wasn't a smile in Wang Lin's eyes. He didn't pretend to panic, nor did he show any other expression. He was still very calm.
He didn't want to take the initiative to steal the celestial jades, but if the other party came to steal from him and he stood on the side of reason, then it wouldn't be killing for the treasure, but defending himself.
Because of this, he had a reason. Even if he killed someone, he would still be able to stand firm. Adding on his powerful cultivation, no one on planet Ran Yun would dare to stand up for him.
After 800 years of cultivation, not only did Wang Lin become smart, but he also knew how to be sinister.
However, he rarely showed his sinister side. In the Luo Tian Star System, he had changed his appearance. Even if there were people familiar with him, they wouldn't be able to recognize him.
There was a hint of hesitation in the old man's eyes. After a while, he let out a mouthful of foul air. He held the copper mirror and asked, "How many celestial jades do you want for this?"
Wang Lin's tone was calm as he slowly said, "50,000!"
The old man frowned. He could take out 50,000 celestial jades from his bag of holding, but he had spent nearly 100 years slowly accumulating them in preparation for reaching the Ascendant stage. If he took them out now, he was worried he wouldn't have enough time to reach the Ascendant stage.
As he pondered, he looked down at the copper mirror in his hand and began to hesitate. He was very tempted by this treasure. It has to be said that if a Soul Transformation cultivator could obtain an inheritance pseudo celestial treasure, the meaning would be very different. If this treasure was powerful enough, he could even battle against peak Soul Transformation cultivators.
Although he didn't know what the copper mirror's spell was, he knew that any inheritance treasure wouldn't be weak.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about killing someone to steal their treasure. However, when he looked at the young man before him, he noticed that this person's expression was still calm. Most importantly, to be able to take out these two treasures meant that this person was a direct descendant of a cultivation family.
After a moment of silence, the old man took out a bag of holding and took out 10,000 celestial jades. Then he threw the rest of the celestial jades to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin took it and scanned it with his divine sense. The number was accurate, so he put it in his pocket and threw the inheritance jade slip to the old man.
The old man immediately caught the jade slip and looked at it with rapt attention. A moment later, his eyes were filled with joy. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Do you have more?"
Wang Lin glanced at the old man and took out the hairpin from his storage bag.
"It's a Pseudo Immortal Artifact as well." Disappointment flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he nodded to Wang Lin before turning around and walking out of the Green Bamboo Pavilion.
Wang Lin bought some ingredients in the shop and left. Even at this moment, the young man who was standing at the side still couldn't believe what had just happened.
As he walked on the street, Wang Lin spread out his Divine Sense. He revealed an indistinct mocking smile. There was a Divine Sense locked onto him, following him.
"I'll give you a chance!"
Wang Lin changed directions and headed toward the city gate. He soon exited the city gate, took out a flying sword, and flew forward.
His speed wasn't fast; he maintained the speed of a Core Formation cultivator. After traveling for thousands of kilometers, a large amount of fog suddenly appeared before him. This fog appeared out of nowhere.
In a flash, the fog condensed into a giant hand that mercilessly reached toward Wang Lin, creating a harsh howl.
The mockery in Wang Lin's eyes became even stronger and lightning flashed in his eyes. The moment the giant hand reached toward him, Wang Lin raised his right hand and casually waved it. In an instant, a large amount of celestial spiritual energy swept out from Wang Lin's hand.
The large hand that was grabbing over immediately disappeared amidst the rumbling sounds in the sky. Even the large black fog behind it was wildly blown away. A miserable groan was emitted from it.
"You're not a Core Formation cultivator!!"
As the black fog dissipated, a skinny middle-aged man was revealed. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and lightning crackled around his body. The middle-aged man's face was filled with terror and he quickly retreated without hesitation.
There was also a black glow around his body. It was clear that he had used some kind of spell.
Wang Lin calmly looked at him and slowly chased after the middle-aged man. This person was only at the mid stage of Nascent Soul. If Wang Lin wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as blowing off dust.
The middle-aged man's heart was filled with terror. With one wave of his hand, his nascent soul dissipated. If he didn't return to the family in a short amount of time, he would die.
He regretted listening to Elder Sun and causing trouble for this person for a few spirit stones.
What made him even more terrified was that the person behind him was still chasing him. This kind of life and death pressure made him feel like he was about to collapse.
The distance of thousands of miles was crossed in the blink of an eye. The middle-aged man directly flew into the city. His face was pale and most of his nascent soul had dissipated. He coughed out another mouthful of blood and rushed into the Sun family's house in the center of the city.
After arriving here, he could no longer control the dissipation of his nascent soul. He hoarsely shouted, "Save me!" It was as if he had used the last bit of his strength. His body tilted and he fell.
A white shadow whistled over. It was a man in white. He caught the middle-aged man's body and his expression changed slightly. Without hesitation, he took out a large amount of pills from his bag of holding and poured them all into the middle-aged man's mouth.
At the same time, many figures rushed out from the Sun family's residence at the center of the city. Some even soared into the sky.
At this moment, Wang Lin's expression was calm as he walked over.
"How dare you hurt someone from the Sun family!" One of the people from the Sun family immediately took out a flying sword and charged at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin waved his sleeve and a gust of wind appeared. It turned into a storm that swept away all the Sun family cultivators within 1,000 feet of him.
"All of you, stand down!"
A shout came from the house and three old men walked out. One of them was Elder Sun, the person who made the deal with Wang Lin.
Elder Sun's expression was very gloomy.
The person who spoke was a red-faced old man. He coldly looked at Wang Lin and coldly said, "Which family's child are you? Do you know that breaking into my Sun family is a great disaster?"
Wang Lin faintly smiled. He pointed at Elder Sun and gently said, "I'm here for him!"
Elder Sun's expression became even more gloomy and he shouted, "Little kid, the deal between you and the Old Man is over. Are you regretting it?"
Wang Lin shook his head and pointed at the unconscious middle-aged man on the ground. He smiled and said, "What a coincidence. The moment I left the shop, I was intercepted by this person. After I lost, I ran here."
Elder Sun let out a snort. The two old men beside him frowned. This matter was very simple. The two of them looked at each other and guessed the reason. Elder Sun was jealous of the other person's item and couldn't act himself, so he sent out a family member.
However, Elder Sun was still an elder of the Sun family. Since this matter had already happened, the two of them had to protect him. The red-faced old man sneered, "Ridiculous. It doesn't matter whose family you are. Stay here today. When your family's elders come to the Sun family to negotiate, we will decide whether you live or die!"
There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. He raised his right hand and pressed down. Suddenly, a thunderous rumble came from the sky and a powerful pressure descended on the Sun family's mansion.
At this moment, the expressions of all the Sun family members changed greatly. They all used the spiritual energy in their bodies to resist. It was as if they would collapse if they didn't resist.
The eyes of the three old men, including Elder Sun, shined brightly and revealed a hint of terror.
"Is this ridiculous?" Wang Lin's voice was cold.
"Fellow cultivator, please calm down!"
An old voice rang out from within the house. Following that, an old man dressed in black slowly walked out. His appearance immediately caused the pressure that was descending to dissipate slightly.
Although this person wasn't at the Ascendant stage, he was at the peak of the Soul Transformation stage. He was only one step away from the Ascendant stage. From the looks of it, he was only one step away from reaching the peak of comprehension.
However, Wang Lin noticed that for some reason, there was a hint of Ascendant aura coming from this old man. This didn't mean that this person was hiding his cultivation, but that there was the divine sense of an Ascendant cultivator surrounding him.
The old man in black said, "This matter is indeed my Sun family's fault. We have offended fellow cultivator."
The moment he said this, the three old men, including Elder Sun, were startled, but they immediately understood what was going on.
Wang Lin calmly looked at the old man and said, "200,000 celestial jades and we'll forget about this matter!"
The old man's expression changed slightly. He hesitated for a bit and nodded. "Fine, but 200,000 celestial jades is too much. This is only a branch of the Sun family, so it isn't enough. Fellow cultivator, please wait for three days, okay?"
Wang Lin meaningfully looked at the old man. He wasn't looking at the old man, but at the Ascendant divine sense on his body.
After withdrawing his gaze, Wang Lin turned around and left.
It wasn't until Wang Lin was far away that the old man in black let out a sigh of relief. The Ascendant divine sense on his body dissipated.
He fiercely glared at the old man named Sun and let out a cold snort.
The red-faced old man hesitated for a bit and softly said, "200,000 celestial jades … Even in the main family, it is a large amount."
The old man in black coldly said, "Just now, the main family's ancestor descended on me and ordered me to agree to any request. Not to mention 200,000 celestial jades, even 400,000 celestial jades must be given!
In addition, today's matter is to be sealed by the family. Don't spread it, and don't disturb this person. "
At this moment, in the vast ocean on the eastern side of planet Ran Yun, a long-haired man with his upper body naked was sitting in the lotus position. After a while, he opened his eyes. His eyes shined brightly, and they were like two bright lights in the dark ocean.
He raised his head, looked up, and thought to himself, "Could this person be the Ascendant cultivator that suddenly appeared … But I can't see through his cultivation level … There's something about him that makes me feel like I'm about to be tied down.
"I can't provoke this person. Since he is in my Sun family's city, perhaps the opportunity for my Sun family has arrived!"
"Was that last glance a warning …? That's right. He was telling me not to disturb him …. That person definitely qualifies to speak to me in such a way …." After a long moment passed, the man flew up from the bottom of the sea and began to fly away.
