The old man's words made Luo Luo bite her lip.
Ten thousand Immortal Sources, this was absolutely not a small sum.
And because Luo Luo had not had much contact with the outside world,
she also had no assets.
But she didn't want to ask Jun Xiaoyao for it.
Jun Xiaoyao had already taken care of her enough; how could she make him spend money?
Seeing Luo Luo's conflicted expression, the smile on the old man's face faded.
So it was a poor girl with no money.
"Girl, if you don't have money, leave. I won't sell for less than ten thousand Immortal Sources!" the old man said.
Luo Luo bit her lip.
Yuánbǎo looked very eager, and she didn't want to disappoint it.
Luo Luo seemed to have made up her mind and said, "Alright then, I'll go get the money. You must save this stone for me."
The old man's eyes lit up and he said, "Of course."
Luo Luo still had to go find Jun Xiaoyao.
Of course, not to ask directly, but to borrow.
As for how to repay, Luo Luo didn't know.
But she was willing to do anything for Jun Xiaoyao to repay the debt.
She would absolutely not be a deadbeat!
And just as Luo Luo was about to go find Jun Xiaoyao,
a female voice suddenly rang out.
"I want this raw stone."
Following the sound, several figures walked over.
Leading them was a beautiful woman, dressed very luxuriously, looking extraordinary.
The several Cultivators beside her were also quite strong.
"Hiss... It's that pampered girl from the Cai family, Cai Menglan!"
Seeing this woman, some Cultivators around them avoided her like the plague.
This Cai Menglan had a very bad reputation in Western Extremity Ancient City.
She had previously snatched many treasures coveted by Cultivators, engaging in forced buying and selling, acquiring them at low prices.
But due to Cai Menglan's Cai family background, the Cultivators she targeted were helpless.
As one of the three great Source Arts families, the Cai family's influence was not small.
Even in this Western Extremity Ancient City, the Cai family held significant sway.
No one truly wanted to offend Cai Menglan.
And this, naturally, further fueled Cai Menglan's arrogant demeanor.
"Alas, both are Cai family's proud daughters, but why is there such a huge gap between Cai Menglan and Cai Shiyun?"
"She's not qualified to compare with Immortal Fairy Shiyun. Neither in character nor in Source Arts can she remotely match Cai Shiyun."
"She's just a profligate Young Miss relying on the Cai family."
"That girl is probably going to be out of luck; she's likely to leave empty-handed."
Some people around whispered secretly, looking at Luo Luo with a hint of sympathy.
Luo Luo also hadn't expected such a thing to happen.
Her expression changed slightly.
"I reserved this first."
Cai Menglan's lips curled into a disdainful arc, her gaze subtly sweeping over Yuánbǎo.
With a scornful look, she said, "Did you pay for it?"
"This..."
Luo Luo was speechless, her face slightly flushed.
"I... I'm going to find someone to get the money..."
"Haha, that's hilarious. If you don't have money, don't come to buy things, understand?" Cai Menglan sneered.
And the old man's expression wasn't very good either.
He had originally encountered a sucker and wanted to make a killing.
As a result, Cai Menglan intervened.
If she really wanted it, would the old man dare to sell it to her for ten thousand Immortal Sources?
If he really sold it like that, he wouldn't be able to stay in Western Extremity Ancient City.
"You... How can you be so domineering and unreasonable..."
Luo Luo's pure and delicate face flushed red.
She had no experience in dealing with people, and didn't even know how to curse.
Therefore, she merely flushed red.
"Ah, do you really want this raw stone?" Cai Menglan changed the subject and said.
"What do you mean?" Luo Luo asked.
"Alright, how about this: exchange the small beast in your arms, and I'll give you this raw stone, how about it?"
Cai Menglan said, a glint flashing in her eyes.
Luo Luo immediately hugged Yuánbǎo tightly.
Although she lacked sophisticated social experience, it didn't mean she was foolish.
This woman wasn't interested in the raw stone.
She was eyeing the Yuánbǎo in her arms!
"That's right, that should be a Pixiu..."
Cai Menglan's eyes held an extreme fervor.
A Pixiu, that was the most ancient and powerful Archaic Auspicious Beast in terms of Bloodline.
Even if the Pixiu in this girl's arms wasn't the most ancient pureblood, it was still rare and precious enough.
And most importantly,
a Pixiu only eats and doesn't excrete, and it is extremely sensitive to various treasures and divine objects.
And the Cai family was a Source Arts family.
One could imagine.
If Cai Menglan could obtain a Pixiu,
she would be virtually invincible in terms of searching for treasures.
Even some Source Arts Great Masters might not be able to compare to her.
This was Cai Menglan's true purpose.
"Then I don't want it anymore."
Luo Luo hugged Yuánbǎo and was about to leave.
But several Cultivators beside Cai Menglan blocked Luo Luo's retreat.
Their auras were also not weak.
Although the Cai family was a Source Arts family, specializing in Source Arts, their cultivation strength was not too high.
However, the Cai family supported many powerful retainers.
"Sorry, Young Miss wants you to exchange, so you must exchange!"
Cai Menglan crossed her arms over her chest, looking as if she had already won.
Seeing this, the surrounding crowd also secretly shook their heads.
Forced buying and selling again.
Calling it an exchange, but in reality, it was no different from outright robbery.
"Yuánbǎo is not only my pet but also my friend, I won't exchange!" Luo Luo said, frowning delicately.
"That's not up to you, or rather, do you have the confidence to refuse?" Cai Menglan said with a mocking smile.
Just then, a voice came.
"What are you doing?"
An unremarkable Young man descended, it was Sword Wanjué.
He had only gone to find some Materials, and hadn't expected Luo Luo to encounter trouble here.
Seeing the newcomer, Luo Luo simply explained a few things.
Sword Wanjué's eyes darkened upon hearing this.
This was clearly being bullied.
As Jun Xiaoyao's attendant, he instinctively regarded Luo Luo as Jun Xiaoyao's woman.
Naturally, he couldn't tolerate others bullying his master's woman.
"Cai family, you are seeking death!" Sword Wanjué said coldly.
"You are the one seeking death!"
Several Cai family retainers, seeing this, couldn't help but attack Sword Wanjué.
Sword Wanjué's body trembled, the long sword behind him soared into the air, sword light flashed, and the Void Realm was filled with chaotic Sword Qi!
Universe Burial Sword Art!
Pfft!
Blood splattered.
Those few Cai family retainers were directly turned into minced flesh and bone, their Primordial Spirits annihilated!
The entire place was dead silent!
No one had expected that the seemingly unremarkable and ordinary Young man would be so strong!
And he actually dared to attack a member of the Cai family!
Western Extremity Ancient City was the Cai family's territory.
This was provoking the local strongman!
"This..."
Cai Menglan was also stunned, her mind reeling.
"So, this is your confidence..."
Cai Menglan looked at Luo Luo, biting her silver teeth.
The reason she was so fearless was because she had such a young powerhouse behind her.
Luo Luo opened her mouth.
The person who truly gave her a sense of security was not Sword Wanjué.
"Good, do you think my Cai family has no one?"
Cai Menglan naturally wouldn't let it go.
Just this Pixiu alone was a priceless treasure for a Source Arts family like the Cai family.
She directly took out a jade talisman and crushed it.
Sword Wanjué frowned slightly upon seeing this.
Just as he was about to make a move,
several figures flew through the air from afar.
The aura of the leading person was actually in the Chaos Dao Venerable realm!
