Chapter 469 This Was Not What I Wanted
After staying in Liuxi Town for a day, the cultivators prepared to rush to Blackstone Ridge.
On this day, the number of cultivators gathered in Liuxi Town multiplied several times. The town, which usually could only accommodate only a few hundred people, now contained about 2,000 cultivators, and the town was crowded.
Of the two thousand cultivators, the Qi-refining Stage cultivators accounted for the vast majority, which was in line with the proportion of cultivators of the demon clan. Although these cultivators’ cultivation were not of a very high level, however, they had the enthusiasm to see if they could get the opportunity to join in the fun and pick up a few bargains. The beast tide’s represented harm on the one hand, and opportunity on the other. Under normal circumstances, there would not be many opportunities for cultivators to get rich.
The cultivators of the Immortal Realm only occupied less than ten percent, and they were mostly concentrated in several large cultivator forces. Such as the Killing Hands and the Lord Childe’s team of Wangyue City.
After Li Ye and others joined the Killing Hands, they were placed in Qi Potian’s team. Saying that Qi Potian’s team was actually not accurate, because Qi Potian was just a servant.
The Killing Hands had more than 100 members and over ten of them were of the Sky Immortal Realm. These 100 or so cultivators were divided into ten teams, each of which was led by a Sky Immortal Realm cultivator. In addition to the members of the Killing Hands, there were more than a dozen independent cultivators like Li Ye, with varying levels of cultivation, ranging from Qi-refining to the Spiritual Master Realm.
For the Killing Hands, it was necessary to expand its team before going into the mountains to hunt. At the same time, they would also charge a sizeable protection fee from the independent cultivators, which was also the way they increased their income.
For independent cultivators, especially for those whose cultivations were not up to scratch, depending on those cultivators’ strength, the ability to protect themselves and have a chance to loot would be greatly enhanced after entering the mountain to face the beast tide, so many cultivators would choose this path.
Only that the protection fee of the Killing Hands was indeed a bit too expensive, and the independent cultivators were all complaining. However, the fee was the same for all cultivator teams so they had no other choice.
“Brother Li, come here.” Before leaving, Qi Potian frowned at Li Ye and called him aside. He then asked mysteriously, “Brother Li, do you need a Magic Treasure?”
Li Ye didn’t know what his intention was, but he did have a few Magic Treasures. After his Luke Sword was upgraded to the top class, he didn’t continue to feed it because a war was coming. So it might come in handy, “You have top Magic Treasures?”
Qi Potian’s eyes lit up when he heard he had a chance. He immediately lifted his chin up proudly, “Of course! Brother Li, the butcher in Blackstone Ridge can clearly tell you that if you don’t have Magic Treasure when you enter the mountains, then you’ll surely die! Those fierce beasts are all tough-skinned and adept in defense. Without good Magic Treasures, you’ll be dead meat.”
Li Ye could not help laughing, for this guy was really funny. He was frightened and “granted to be justified” when he stole his two Blazing Eagles before. Now it seemed that he wanted to sell him Magic Treasures again.
As Li Ye expected, Qi Potian looked around left and right and ensured that no cultivators were staring at them. Then he took out a flying sword without a hilt from his sleeve and pretended to cough a bit, “Brother Li, I’ve just managed to get this flying sword, it is infinitely close to the middle grade, and you could take a demon’s head from a thousand steps away…”
Li Ye looked at it and replied seriously, “No.”
Qi Potian was stunned, he did not know why Li Ye outright refused. Then he was a little anxious, “I didn’t even tell you the price, why did Brother Li say no? I’m not trying to scare you, but the beast tide is really dangerous, even I, the fierce butcher in Blackstone Ridge, must be careful when dealing with them. So a rookie youngster like you, won’t stand a chance. You don’t want to die do you? I know your attendant has high cultivation, but how can you put your life in other people’s hands?”
Li Ye nodded, gesturing that he agreed with Qi Potian, and that he was right.
This greatly increased Qi Potian’s interest, and he added kindly, “It is destined that we met each other. So, how about five thousand spiritual stones, and this Magic Treasure is yours!”
Li Ye wondered, “Five thousand spiritual stones?”
“Five Thousand Spirit Stones for a flying sword is really not expensive!” Qi Potian said loudly, but in fact, he had no confidence in his heart. Actually this Magic Treasure was of quite a low grade, and all that talk about being infinitely close to the middle grade was an outright lie. He just saw that Li Ye had a lot of money, so he asked for a high price, trying to blackmail Li Ye.
Li Ye was not convinced.
Qi Potian gritted his teeth and tentatively asked, “Then according to Brother Li, how much do you think this Magic Treasure is worth?”
Li Ye looked serious, “Since it is a Magic Treasure that is only a hair away from the top grade, then it’s at least worth ten thousand spiritual stones!”
“Ten…ten thousand?” Qi Potian stared at Li Ye in surprise, think how could there be such a good thing in the world? The buyer actually took the initiative to increase the price of the item? A low-grade Magic Treasure was only worth five or six thousand spiritual stones at most.
But when he thought about it, he understood that Li Ye probably wanted to make friends with him and then get close to the Killing Hands through him. After all, the Big Master had reached the Real Immortal Realm, and thus could take care of Li Ye in Blackstone Ridge.
“Brother Li is really a wonderful person. You’re right. On value alone, this flying sword is definitely worth ten thousand spiritual stones! And if you have the mettle, you could make it become a real middle-grade treasure, by which time, its value would increase exponentially!” Qi Potian was happy to hand the flying sword to Li Ye.
Li Ye glanced at Qi Potian and added, “I already said that I don’t want it.”
“…” Qi Potian did not know what to say.
Are you playing with me? You still increased the price but you don’t want it?
Li Ye put on an evil smile, and then suddenly took out a similar flying sword from his storage bag, ”My flying sword is of the highest quality, albeit it’s only of the low-grade. It’s worth at least 9,999 spiritual stones. You can take home the best Magic Treasure for 9,980 spiritual stones!”
Qi Potian’s feet stumbled, and he almost fell. So that’s your game, raising the price just to sell your own Magic Treasure?
Qi Potian was unhappy and looked at Li Ye with evil, “Brother Li, there is no cultivator who dares to play me like you did in the Killing Hands!”
Li Ye looked at him and added, “Are you threatening me?”
Qi Potian sneered and answered, “I just want to sell you a Magic Treasure, but you should know your place!”
Li Ye nodded, “So you are threatening me!”
Qi Potian was enraged, “So what if I am?”
Li Ye looked back at Wu You, Hong Xiu and the others among the crowd, “Miss Hong Xiu, please come over!”
Hong Xiu wanted to join the Killing Hands, and Li Ye couldn’t stop her. But since she knew Qi Potian, who had always been keen to get close to her, Li Ye decided to use her instead of driving her away.
Qi Potian’s expression changed. How could you call for help? And you actually called Miss Hong Xiu, you are too evil!
Qi Potian immediately realized that this sale would not be done, which made him annoyed but he couldn’t do anything.Read the next chapter on vi p novel
Li Ye was a rich man, he could even give away two Blazing Eagles. He had already intended to squeeze Li Ye for money as they planned to enter the mountains together.
“What’s the matter, Childe Li?” Miss Hong Xiu came over and looked at Li Ye and Qi Potian curiously, “What are you doing here?”
Qi Potian squeezed out a smile, which he thought was sincere, he then replied, “We are not doing…”
“Brother Qi told me that he wanted to give you a gift.” Li Ye interrupted Qi Potian and said righteously. Then he pushed Qi Potian, pretending to be anxious, “Brother Qi, you did just say that you have a flying sword to give to her right?”
Qi Potian looked dazed and as he stared at Li Ye with wide eyes. When did I say that?
Li Ye seemed to have understood Qi Potian’s eyes and smiled to the doubtful Miss Hong Xiu, “Brother Qi has a superb flying sword worth ten thousand spiritual stones. He told me that it was really hard to get his hands on. And he has been wanting to give it to you for a long time. But he is too embarrassed to tell you. When he saw that I am more familiar with you, he let me call you over to persuade you to accept his gift!”
“…” Qi Potian could not say a word.
“Brother Li, don’t you want to convince me first? When did I say I want to give her the flying sword? That’s a low-grade Magic Treasure. I only have one!”
“Really?” Miss Hong Xiu looked at Qi Potian with doubt but also expectation in her eyes.
“Of course it is true!” Li Ye pushed Qi Potian hard, “Brother Qi, what are you standing there for? The flying sword is already in your hand, quickly!”
Miss Hong Xiu looked at Qi Potian sensually and smiled, dazzling Qi Potian for a moment.
But Qi Potian had not completely lost his mind, for that was a Magic Treasure after all!
While he was stunned, Li Ye grabbed the flying sword from his hand and passed it to Miss Hong Xiu, “Come on, use it well, and don’t disappoint Brother Qi!”
Miss Hong Xiu took the sword and looked at Li Ye, then she smiled at Qi Potian, saying, ”In that case, thank you Childe Qi.”
Qi Potian’s heart was bleeding as he watched his flying sword in Miss Hong Xiu’s hands. He gritted his teeth and felt that this was not right. He must get the Magic Treasure back. Although it was difficult to speak out, he had to do it, “Miss Hong Xiu…”
Before he finished talking, Li Ye said to Miss Hong Xiu, “Well, Miss Hong Xiu, you can go now. I have something to discuss with Brother Qi.”
Miss Hong Xiu glanced at them, and turned away with the flying sword.
Qi Potian reached out helplessly, “My Flying Sword…”
Miss Hong Xiu, can’t you see that I’m not willing at all? I don’t want to give you such a precious Magic Treasure! How could you just take it and leave? You could even reject the Big Master’s middle-class Magic Treasure, so why do you want my low-grade flying sword? Miss Hong Xiu, you weren’t like this before, why did you change?!
He wanted to yell, but Miss Hong Xiu had already left. If he yelled again, he would attract the attention of other cultivators. So he couldn’t do anything.
Qi Potian felt like weeping but had no tears… how could this be?
Li Ye teased and smiled, “A flying sword worth ten thousand spiritual stones. Brother Qi is really generous!”
Qi Potian turned his head and glared at him with gritted teeth, “Li Congjing! You’re so deceiving! You really think I can’t deal with you now you are among us…”
Li Ye turned around and said, “Miss Hong Xiu…”
“Brother Li, I was wrong!” Qi Potian quickly surrendered.
Li Ye glanced at him, “That’s better. Oh, by the way, Brother Qi, your flying sword is gone. So how can you survive in Blackstone Ridge? You might lose your life. My flying sword is of sound quality, and you won’t need ten thousand spiritual stones, only nine thousand nine hundred and eighty and you can take it home…”
“Brother Li, see you again!” Qi Potian couldn’t bear to be with Li Ye any longer, so he turned around and left. He felt that his heart was bleeding, and he felt disgusted as though he ate crap. However, he couldn’t fight with Li Ye, or argue with him. So he had to stay away from Li Ye.
Watching Qi Potian walk away, Li Ye showed a satisfied smile. You dare to steal two Blazing Eagles from me, you must think you have too many treasures. You should ask the people in Panfeng City about who Li Ye is…
Li Ye returned to Wu You and the others, and did not forget to thank Miss Hong Xiu. In fact, he was not sure whether Miss Hong Xiu would help him.
After all, Qi Potian’s performance was a little too obvious that even a fool could see it. Although he was obsessed with Miss Hong Xiu, he still did not want to give away such precious Magic Treasure. Moreover, Miss Hong Xiu was not a mooch, after all, she had just rejected the Big Master’s middle-class Magic Treasure.
Facts have proven that if a woman was too principled in front of you, then there was only one reason, she does not like you enough.
Miss Hong Xiu handed the flying sword to Li Ye.
Li Ye didn’t intend to accept it, but Miss Hong Xiu said quietly, “If it is a gift from you, then I will take it. But if it is from others, I don’t care for it.”
Li Ye had to accept it.
Well, how did it come to this? I ended up with a Magic Treasure!
The low-grade Magic Treasure was also quite good, and a Blazing Eagle was not on the same level.
The Duchess looked at Miss Hong Xiu with her head tilted curiously, and it was rare that she showed no vigilance. It was also very strange that the Duchess was very guarded when she first met Miss Hong Xiu, but after a day of getting along, albeit nothing happened, but the Duchess was no longer hostile to Miss Hong Xiu.
That had made Li Ye very puzzled, perhaps it was because Miss Hong Xiu was a mortal being?
When Li Ye asked about it, the Duchess answered seriously, “She is not like those female demons, who has evil intentions for Elder Brother Ye!”
Li Ye was speechless about the fact that even this little girl knew what evil intentions were.
When Miss Hong Xiu gave the flying sword to Li Ye and saw that the Duchess called him, “Elder Brother Ye”, she wondered and asked, “Isn’t your name Congjing?”
Li Ye casually replied, “Oh, my pet name is Xiaoye.”
Xiaoye? Miss Hong Xiu mulled it over for a bit and couldn’t help but smile. This was really an interesting name. She glanced at Li Ye again. Would Childe Li be an interesting person?
After Qi Potian ran away from Li Ye, the captain of the squad, who was a cultivator of the Sky Immortal Realm, called him over.
“I heard that you gave the flying sword to Miss Hong Xiu?” The captain was a young man with a soft face and dark lips. When he said this, his voice was cold, and his eyes were full of anger.
Qi Potian was crying with a sad face, “Believe me it is really not what I wanted…”
The captain took a deep breath, and the anger in his eyes had turned murderous, “In other words, you not only did not hustle Li Congjing’s spiritual stones, but lost a flying sword. The very one I asked you to sell him? You have some nerve to say that you did it involuntarily, do you think you are not stupid enough already? Don’t you know that it is the Big Master’s orders to teach that Li Congjing a lesson?”

Now it seemed that he wanted to sell him Magic Treasures again.As Li Ye expected, Qi Potian looked around left and right and ensured that no cultivators were staring at them. Then he took out a flying sword without a hilt from his sleeve and pretended to cough a bit, Brother Li, I've just managed to get this flying sword, it is infinitely close to the middle grade, and you could take a demon's head from a thousand steps awayLi Ye looked at it and replied seriously, No.Qi Potian was stunned, he did not know why Li Ye outright refused. Then he was a little anxious, I didn't even tell you the price, why did Brother Li say no? I'm not trying to scare you, but the beast tide is really dangerous, even I, the fierce butcher in Blackstone Ridge, must be careful when dealing with them. So a rookie youngster like you, won't stand a chance. You don't want to die do you? I know your attendant has high cultivation, but how can you put your life in other people's hands?Li Ye nodded, gesturing that he agreed with Qi Potian, and that he was right.This greatly increased Qi Potian's interest, and he added kindly, It is destined that we met each other. So, how about five thousand spiritual stones, and this Magic Treasure is yours!Li Ye wondered, Five thousand spiritual stones?Five Thousand Spirit Stones for a flying sword is really not expensive! Qi Potian said loudly, but in fact, he had no confidence in his heart. Actually this Magic Treasure was of quite a low grade, and all that talk about being infinitely close to the middle grade was an outright lie. He just saw that Li Ye had a lot of money, so he asked for a high price, trying to blackmail Li Ye.Li Ye was not convinced.Qi Potian gritted his teeth and tentatively asked, Then according to Brother Li, how much do you think this Magic Treasure is worth?Li Ye looked serious, Since it is a Magic Treasure that is only a hair away from the top grade, then it's at least worth ten thousand spiritual stones!Tenten thousand? Qi Potian stared at Li Ye in surprise, think how could there be such a good thing in the world? The buyer actually took the initiative to increase the price of the item? A low-grade Magic Treasure was only worth five or six thousand spiritual stones at most.But when he thought about it, he understood that Li Ye probably wanted to make friends with him and then get close to the Killing Hands through him. After all, the Big Master had reached the Real Immortal Realm, and thus could take care of Li Ye in Blackstone Ridge.Brother Li is really a wonderful person. You're right. On value alone, this flying sword is definitely worth ten thousand spiritual stones! And if you have the mettle, you could make it become a real middle-grade treasure, by which time, its value would increase exponentially! Qi Potian was happy to hand the flying sword to Li Ye.Li Ye glanced at Qi Potian and added, I already said that I don't want it. Qi Potian did not know what to say.Are you playing with me? You still increased the price but you don't want it?Li Ye put on an evil smile, and then suddenly took out a similar flying sword from his storage bag, My flying sword is of the highest quality, albeit it's only of the low-grade. It's worth at least 9,999 spiritual stones. You can take home the best Magic Treasure for 9,980 spiritual stones!Qi Potian's feet stumbled, and he almost fell. So that's your game, raising the price just to sell your own Magic Treasure?Qi Potian was unhappy and looked at Li Ye with evil, Brother Li, there is no cultivator who dares to play me like you did in the Killing Hands!Li Ye looked at him and added, Are you threatening me?Qi Potian sneered and answered, I just want to sell you a Magic Treasure, but you should know your place!Li Ye nodded, So you are threatening me!Qi Potian was enraged, So what if I am?Li Ye looked back at Wu You, Hong Xiu and the others among the crowd, Miss Hong Xiu, please come over!Hong Xiu wanted to join the Killing Hands, and Li Ye couldn't stop her. But since she knew Qi Potian, who had always been keen to get close to her, Li Ye decided to use her instead of driving her away.Qi Potian's expression changed. How could you call for help? And you actually called Miss Hong Xiu, you are too evil!Qi Potian immediately realized that this sale would not be done, which made him annoyed but he couldn't do anything.Read the next chapter on vi p novelLi Ye was a rich man, he could even give away two Blazing Eagles. He had already intended to squeeze Li Ye for money as they planned to enter the mountains together.What's the matter, Childe Li? Miss Hong Xiu came over and looked at Li Ye and Qi Potian curiously, What are you doing here?Qi Potian squeezed out a smile, which he thought was sincere, he then replied, We are not doingBrother Qi told me that he wanted to give you a gift. Li Ye interrupted Qi Potian and said righteously. Then he pushed Qi Potian, pretending to be anxious, Brother Qi, you did just say that you have a flying sword to give to her right?Qi Potian looked dazed and as he stared at Li Ye with wide eyes. When did I say that?Li Ye seemed to have understood Qi Potian's eyes and smiled to the doubtful Miss Hong Xiu, Brother Qi has a superb flying sword worth ten thousand spiritual stones. He told me that it was really hard to get his hands on. And he has been wanting to give it to you for a long time. But he is too embarrassed to tell you. When he saw that I am more familiar with you, he let me call you over to persuade you to accept his gift! Qi Potian could not say a word.Brother Li, don't you want to convince me first? When did I say I want to give her the flying sword? That's a low-grade Magic Treasure. I only have one!Really? Miss Hong Xiu looked at Qi Potian with doubt but also expectation in her eyes.Of course it is true! Li Ye pushed Qi Potian hard, Brother Qi, what are you standing there for? The flying sword is already in your hand, quickly!Miss Hong Xiu looked at Qi Potian sensually and smiled, dazzling Qi Potian for a moment.But Qi Potian had not completely lost his mind, for that was a Magic Treasure after all!While he was stunned, Li Ye grabbed the flying sword from his hand and passed it to Miss Hong Xiu, Come on, use it well, and don't disappoint Brother Qi!Miss Hong Xiu took the sword and looked at Li Ye, then she smiled at Qi Potian, saying, In that case, thank you Childe Qi.Qi Potian's heart was bleeding as he watched his flying sword in Miss Hong Xiu's hands. He gritted his teeth and felt that this was not right. He must get the Magic Treasure back. Although it was difficult to speak out, he had to do it, Miss Hong XiuBefore he finished talking, Li Ye said to Miss Hong Xiu, Well, Miss Hong Xiu, you can go now. I have something to discuss with Brother Qi.Miss Hong Xiu glanced at them, and turned away with the flying sword.Qi Potian reached out helplessly, My Flying SwordMiss Hong Xiu, can't you see that I'm not willing at all? I don't want to give you such a precious Magic Treasure! How could you just take it and leave? You could even reject the Big Master's middle-class Magic Treasure, so why do you want my low-grade flying sword? Miss Hong Xiu, you weren't like this before, why did you change?!He wanted to yell, but Miss Hong Xiu had already left. If he yelled again, he would attract the attention of other cultivators. So he couldn't do anything.Qi Potian felt like weeping but had no tears how could this be?Li Ye teased and smiled, A flying sword worth ten thousand spiritual stones. Brother Qi is really generous!Qi Potian turned his head and glared at him with gritted teeth, Li Congjing! You're so deceiving! You really think I can't deal with you now you are among usLi Ye turned around and said, Miss Hong XiuBrother Li, I was wrong! Qi Potian quickly surrendered.Li Ye glanced at him, That's better. Oh, by the way, Brother Qi, your flying sword is gone. So how can you survive in Blackstone Ridge? You might lose your life. My flying sword is of sound quality, and you won't need ten thousand spiritual stones, only nine thousand nine hundred and eighty and you can take it homeBrother Li, see you again! Qi Potian couldn't bear to be with Li Ye any longer, so he turned around and left. He felt that his heart was bleeding, and he felt disgusted as though he ate crap. However, he couldn't fight with Li Ye, or argue with him. So he had to stay away from Li Ye.Watching Qi Potian walk away, Li Ye showed a satisfied smile. You dare to steal two Blazing Eagles from me, you must think you have too many treasures. You should ask the people in Panfeng City about who Li Ye isLi Ye returned to Wu You and the others, and did not forget to thank Miss Hong Xiu. In fact, he was not sure whether Miss Hong Xiu would help him.After all, Qi Potian's performance was a little too obvious that even a fool could see it. Although he was obsessed with Miss Hong Xiu, he still did not want to give away such precious Magic Treasure. Moreover, Miss Hong Xiu was not a mooch, after all, she had just rejected the Big Master's middle-class Magic Treasure.Facts have proven that if a woman was too principled in front of you, then there was only one reason, she does not like you enough.Miss Hong Xiu handed the flying sword to Li Ye.Li Ye didn't intend to accept it, but Miss Hong Xiu said quietly, If it is a gift from you, then I will take it. But if it is from others, I don't care for it.Li Ye had to accept it.Well, how did it come to this? I ended up with a Magic Treasure!The low-grade Magic Treasure was also quite good, and a Blazing Eagle was not on the same level.The Duchess looked at Miss Hong Xiu with her head tilted curiously, and it was rare that she showed no vigilance. It was also very strange that the Duchess was very guarded when she first met Miss Hong Xiu, but after a day of getting along, albeit nothing happened, but the Duchess was no longer hostile to Miss Hong Xiu.That had made Li Ye very puzzled, perhaps it was because Miss Hong Xiu was a mortal being?When Li Ye asked about it, the Duchess answered seriously, She is not like those female demons, who has evil intentions for Elder Brother Ye!Li Ye was speechless about the fact that even this little girl knew what evil intentions were.When Miss Hong Xiu gave the flying sword to Li Ye and saw that the Duchess called him, Elder Brother Ye, she wondered and asked, Isn't your name Congjing?Li Ye casually replied, Oh, my pet name is Xiaoye.Xiaoye? Miss Hong Xiu mulled it over for a bit and couldn't help but smile. This was really an interesting name. She glanced at Li Ye again. Would Childe Li be an interesting person?After Qi Potian ran away from Li Ye, the captain of the squad, who was a cultivator of the Sky Immortal Realm, called him over.I heard that you gave the flying sword to Miss Hong Xiu? The captain was a young man with a soft face and dark lips. When he said this, his voice was cold, and his eyes were full of anger.Qi Potian was crying with a sad face, Believe me it is really not what I wantedThe captain took a deep breath, and the anger in his eyes had turned murderous, In other words, you not only did not hustle Li Congjing's spiritual stones, but lost a flying sword. The very one I asked you to sell him? You have some nerve to say that you did it involuntarily, do you think you are not stupid enough already? Don't you know that it is the Big Master's orders to teach that Li Congjing a lesson?
