Chapter 1612 - 1595: No Need to Thank Me
What’s going on?
Why is she like this?
This ball?
...
The loose cultivators around them were baffled at this moment, not understanding why Meng Zhu was reacting this way. They stared intently at the ball in Lin Feng’s hand, trying to figure out what was so special about it that could make Meng Zhu show such an expression.
"Don’t be so shocked. This thing is just your Qingyun Seal, but it has transformed a bit. The runes on it are still the original ones." Lin Feng looked at Meng Zhu and explained with a smile.
"How is that possible? The Qingyun Seal doesn’t have this function. It can only release Gang Qi attacks! But yours can store energy and even transmit it to me. This is practically a cultivation artifact!" Meng Zhu immediately retorted upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. She knew the Qingyun Seal well, and it didn’t have an energy storage function, let alone the ability to provide her with energy. That was simply impossible!
Heavens!
Energy storage!
And it can transmit!
...
Upon hearing Meng Zhu’s words, the loose cultivators were instantly stunned, standing like stones. It’s not that they were exaggerating, but the news was just too shocking. They never imagined this sphere to be so exaggeratedly useful. No wonder Meng Zhu was so surprised. Given the current scarcity of Spiritual Energy, having such an artifact to assist in cultivation would be wonderful. For an auxiliary Dharma Treasure like this, even fifty Spirit Stones wouldn’t be enough, yet a hundred wouldn’t be too much either!
"That’s because you know too little. Let me put it this way: the Qingyun Seal had a damaged corner before, but that corner contained the attack rune, so this Dharma Treasure now lacks attack capabilities. As for storing and releasing energy, it’s even easier to explain. When using the Qingyun Seal, it absorbs the surrounding Spiritual Energy to enhance attack power. Now that the attack method is gone, the absorbed energy naturally gets stored, and since it can’t be released, you feel that sensation when you touch it."
After listening to Meng Zhu, Lin Feng smiled and explained again. What he said was the truth. This Qingyun Seal might be worthless in others’ hands, but in his, it was a treasure. Others didn’t have his Artifact Refining skills and couldn’t control the runes during shape transformation, so it’s perfectly normal for others to find this unbelievable.
"So that’s how it is!"
"Oh my, so simple!"
"Oh my god, that’s incredible!"
...
The loose cultivators, upon hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, finally understood what was going on. They thought to themselves how sharp this person’s eye was to be able to see this. If they could have spotted this earlier, they would have bought that broken seal long ago, and even hiring an Artifact Refiner to fix it would’ve been profitable. Thinking about it now, they were filled with deep regret. No one anticipated that such a good item would be on Meng Zhu’s stall, and now it’s all taken by this kid. Their hearts were bleeding...
"So that’s how it is..."
After hearing Lin Feng’s words, Meng Zhu stood there dumbfounded, staring blankly at the spherical Dharma Treasure in Lin Feng’s hand. She didn’t expect the Qingyun Seal, which she considered worthless, to have such a function. Now she was speechless, sitting atop a mountain of gold but treating it as garbage, making her feel incredibly depressed inside.
"Now do you believe me? I didn’t purposely help you. Everything I said was true; I just don’t want to make things too cheap." Seeing Meng Zhu’s expression, Lin Feng nodded and said. He had a higher opinion of Meng Zhu now; if it had been someone else, they might have regretted it already. It showed that Meng Zhu had a good character.
After saying this, Lin Feng glanced at the other items on the stall and shook his head, stating regretfully, "It’s a pity; your items are quite good, but I didn’t bring enough Spirit Stones today. Otherwise, I would take all of them. I have to miss out on such a good opportunity."
After saying this, Lin Feng turned around, left with a helpless smile, and the remaining people stood there in a daze. They all heard Lin Feng’s words, knowing these were all good items. They might not believe what others say, but they trusted Lin Feng’s words. They had witnessed miracles twice with their own eyes, and for a moment, these people looked at Meng Zhu’s stall like hungry wolves with greedy eyes, startling Meng Zhu. She thought to herself, what are these people going to do? Are they going to eat her...
"Miss, how much is this?"
"Twenty Spirit Stones!"
"I’ll take it!"
"What do you mean? I’ll offer twenty-five Spirit Stones!"
"What are you doing, raising the price?"
"What’s the deal with raising the price? If you’ve got the guts, offer more!"
"You win!"
"How much for this?"
"Ten Spirit Stones!"
"I’ll offer twelve Spirit Stones!"
"I’ll offer fifteen Spirit Stones!"
...
After Lin Feng left, these loose cultivators couldn’t hold back anymore. They swarmed over, surrounding Meng Zhu’s stall tightly, and started competing to buy Meng Zhu’s items, leaving Meng Zhu a bit dumbfounded. Later, these loose cultivators even began bidding against each other because they all felt that this was an opportunity they absolutely couldn’t miss...
By this point, Lin Feng had already made his way over to Leng Hao’s side. Leng Hao greeted Lin Feng with a smile on his face, incredibly happy inside seeing that Meng Zhu’s items were selling without issue.
"Brother-in-law, you’re amazing! Thank you!" Leng Hao’s smile was radiant, genuinely happy. He was completely aware of what kind of items Meng Zhu’s stall had, and under normal circumstances, they would definitely not sell well. But none of this was a problem for Lin Feng. He effortlessly resolved something so difficult, so he was sincerely grateful to Lin Feng from the bottom of his heart.
"No need to say that to me!" Lin Feng reached out to ruffle Leng Hao’s hair, smiling as he spoke, all family, really no need to thank him.
But just at this moment, Ding Wan’er spoke up.
"Feng, you haven’t set anything up for Xiao Hao, just focused on helping Meng Zhu sell things. If the stuff sells out and Meng Zhu leaves, what about our Xiao Hao?" Ding Wan’er looked at Lin Feng and asked very seriously. She felt this was a possibility that couldn’t be ignored. If the items didn’t sell out, maybe Meng Zhu would stay a few more days, but looking at how things were going, the items would definitely sell quickly, and if Meng Zhu left, wouldn’t Leng Hao’s situation be over?
"I feel the same way. Maybe let Leng Hao go over?" Leng Mei, standing to the side, asked worriedly as well. Like Ding Wan’er, she was now anxious. Lin Feng was busy selling items, but nothing about Leng Hao’s situation was mentioned, and this made her uneasy.
"Don’t worry, just wait. That little girl is very smart. Once the items are sold, she’ll come over to us." Lin Feng looked at the two women and said with a smile, then took Leng Hao and the two women to sit down at a nearby tea stall, watching Meng Zhu sell items from afar.
Leng Hao and the two women still couldn’t understand what Lin Feng meant, but since Lin Feng said so, they couldn’t really say anything, and could only watch Meng Zhu busily from afar, all while wondering why Lin Feng was so sure Meng Zhu would come over.
In no time at all, an hour passed, and Meng Zhu finally sold everything on her stall, earning some Spirit Stones and exchanging some for cultivating elixirs. Luckily, she traded some things; otherwise, she might not have been able to carry so many Spirit Stones if she’d received them all in payment.
After packing up, Meng Zhu wiped the sweat from her forehead, her eyes quickly caught sight of Lin Feng’s group, and with her packed belongings, she immediately approached the four of them.
Seeing Meng Zhu approaching, Leng Hao was instantly petrified, incredibly excited inside. His mind went completely blank, not knowing what to do at all, just standing there foolishly, his eyes fixed on Meng Zhu. Even though he knew it was impolite, he couldn’t control himself now.
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei both had a faint smile appear on their faces suddenly. They didn’t expect Meng Zhu to suddenly appear here. The more they looked at Meng Zhu, the more they liked her. Although they wanted to say something, they were afraid of ruining Lin Feng’s plan, so they didn’t say anything special, just offering Meng Zhu a simple smile, nothing more.
"Thank you for your help. If it weren’t for your assistance, who knows how long it would have taken to sell my items." Meng Zhu bowed slightly to Lin Feng, expressing her gratitude. She knew very well that selling out her items so quickly and at such high prices was all thanks to Lin Feng. After selling everything, it was only natural for her to come and express her gratitude to him.
"No need to thank me; your items are quite decent." Lin Feng shook his head lightly after hearing Meng Zhu’s words of thanks.
"Don’t comfort me, I know my own items well." Meng Zhu still insisted on thanking Lin Feng at this time. She wasn’t an idiot. She understood very clearly what had just happened. Without Lin Feng’s appearance, her items wouldn’t have sold out. Lin Feng had already done something like this, and if she didn’t come over to express her thanks, she would feel uncomfortable in her heart.
Seeing Meng Zhu insist on thanking him like this, Lin Feng shook his head and realized Leng Hao was being so unproductive, and he was speechless. However, everything was proceeding as planned, just needing a final push.
"In fact, saying I helped is not really helping. Those items may not be of use to others, but for me, they’re worth that price because I can refine them, whereas others cannot." Lin Feng told Meng Zhu with confidence, as it was the truth.
"I know, you’re an incredible Artifact Refiner! Could you tell me why you helped me?" Meng Zhu responded calmly, without any resentment against Lin Feng’s words. She had already thought through the whole situation long ago, knowing in her heart that Lin Feng was likely an extraordinary Artifact Refiner, perhaps even a Master, as nothing else could explain the earlier events. So she fully understood and agreed with what Lin Feng said.
However, Meng Zhu couldn’t guess Lin Feng’s final purpose. She didn’t believe in free lunches or pie from the sky. For something he could have chosen to help or not to help with, Lin Feng insisted. If there was no motive, that would be bizarre.
But she couldn’t figure out what Lin Feng could gain from her. Was he interested in her? Impossible, with those two beauties sitting over there. She didn’t believe herself more attractive than those two. Did he want to introduce her to that young man? Equally impossible! To this point, Lin Feng hadn’t said anything about it, which didn’t fit normal logic, leaving her truly puzzled by Lin Feng’s intentions.
