In that instant, Zhu Fei’s heart trembled greatly.
He had never expected that accompanying Tang ngyun to buy a Jade Pendant, he would stumble upon a Magic Artifact.
Moreover, from the looks of it, it was clearly a Magic Artifact ant for defense.
What Jade Talisman, what Amulet, compared to the Jade Pendant-like Magic Artifact before him, those were simply trash.
As long as he had this Jade Pendant-like Magic Artifact and let Tang ngyun claim ownership by dripping her blood onto it, and then slowly refine it, he wouldn’t need to worry about her safety.
He believed that even if a Martial Artist with Half-step Gang Strength ca, as long as they didn’t possess an equivalent weapon, they couldn’t harm Tang ngyun in a short ti.
The more Zhu Fei thought about it, the more excited, the more thrilled he beca.
No way! No matter the cost, he had to acquire this Jade Pendant for ngyun!
Although Zhu Fei thought this in his heart, he remained outwardly calm.
He didn’t imdiately go for that Jade Pendant Magic Artifact, but instead casually browsed through the other Jade Pendant accessories that the middle-aged shopkeeper had brought out.
In the end, he shook his head deliberately, and then casually picked up the yellowing Jade Pendant, which was a Magic Artifact.
After a scan with his Divine Sense, Zhu Fei carefully observed the structure of the Jade Pendant Magic Artifact and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat again.
It truly was a Magic Artifact and even among the Low-Grade, it belonged to the very top tier.
The surface of the Magic Artifact was a faint yellow, and several Defensive Array Runes were engraved in the middle. Although its appearance seed unremarkable, the energy contained within was absolutely not to be underestimated.
He believed that this Magic Artifact would likely be coveted by many Qi Refinent Cultivators in the Five Mountains Continent.
"Shopkeeper, how much for this Jade Pendant?"
Holding the Jade Pendant, Zhu Fei casually toyed with it for a while, then lifted his eyes to inquire from the middle-aged shopkeeper.
Seeing Zhu Fei inquiring about the price of the Jade Pendant, the middle-aged shopkeeper’s face imdiately lit up.
In fact, he knew very well the origin of this Jade Pendant, aware that it was unearthed from below and its history was not particularly clean.
Initially, he had acquired it to deal with those who knew their goods.
But now, this Jade Pendant had been sitting in his shop for a long ti, yet no one had shown interest in it, which inevitably made the middle-aged shopkeeper a bit anxious.
The reason he had brought out the Jade Pendant was precisely because he valued Zhu Fei’s discerning eye, feeling that he might be sowhat interested in this kind of goods.
At last, Zhu Fei did not disappoint the middle-aged shopkeeper.
After a slight contemplation, the shopkeeper extended a finger to Zhu Fei and spoke softly, "Young man, I see you know your stuff too, so I won’t fool you. You should be aware this Jade Pendant is definitely a genuine antique."
After a brief pause, the middle-aged shopkeeper continued, "How about one million? For one million, this item will be yours. What do you think, young man?"
"Hiss!"
Suddenly hearing the price the middle-aged shopkeeper quoted, Tang ngyun imdiately gasped in surprise from the side.
"Shopkeeper, isn’t this price a bit too steep? What kind of Jade Pendant could possibly be worth a million?"
Tang ngyun felt slightly angry in her heart. She hadn’t expected the middle-aged shopkeeper to be so greedy, directly quoting a price of one million to them.
Although to Tang ngyun’s family situation, a million wasn’t really a large sum.
But having money doesn’t an it should be wasted. In her view, this yellow-tinted Jade Pendant, even though an antique, should be valued at most around a hundred thousand.
But this middle-aged shopkeeper dared to tell them that this Jade Pendant cost a million. Did he consider them young and easy to fool?
Suddenly facing Tang ngyun’s questioning, the middle-aged shopkeeper didn’t look at her at that mont but instead kept his gaze on Zhu Fei.
He believed that with Zhu Fei’s discernnt, he could see the true value of this Jade Pendant.
He dared not say more, but if it really got into the hands of so antique enthusiasts, even one million two or three hundred thousand wouldn’t be a problem at all.
If it weren’t for the fact that the middle-aged shopkeeper considered the Jade Pendant hard to sell and felt that Zhu Fei was an expert, he wouldn’t have quoted his bottom-line price so quickly.
Holding the Jade Pendant and seeing Tang ngyun still sowhat huffy, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but smile and pat her on the shoulder, saying, "ngyun, don’t get excited. The boss isn’t ripping us off. This price really isn’t expensive. Let’s do a million."
"Uh, Zhu Fei, you...?"
Hearing Zhu Fei’s words, Tang ngyun’s expression was briefly stunned; then it seed as if she had thought of sothing, and her previously slightly huffy expression was quickly put away.
She knew Zhu Fei wouldn’t deceive her. Since he said this Jade Pendant was worth a million, then it must be worth a million.
"Alright then, I’ll listen to you on this."
Saying this, Tang ngyun then turned towards the middle-aged shopkeeper and said, "This Jade Pendant is for a million, right? Okay, since my friend said so, I’ll buy it. Can I pay by card here?"
The middle-aged shopkeeper saw the change in Tang ngyun’s attitude with just one sentence from Zhu Fei and was imdiately astounded.
Good heavens, who is this young man? Truly fortunate indeed. Such a wealthy, and also so beautiful young lady, actually listens to him like this.
From the looks of it, it seems the one who’s paying is this young woman. You have to understand, this is a million, not just a hundred dollars.
The middle-aged shopkeeper thought sowhat surprised but imdiately nodded and replied, "No problem, I can accept card paynts."
"Mhm." Tang ngyun nodded, speaking as she pulled out a beige wallet from her purse, took out an Industrial and Comrcial Bank card from it, and was about to hand it over to the middle-aged shopkeeper to pay.
"Hold on!"
However, just at that mont, an extrely discordant voice suddenly rang out from the entrance behind them.
One could see a middle-aged bald man, around fifty, pot-bellied, walking in arm-in-arm with a beautiful young ’woman.’
As the two walked in, the middle-aged chubby man first quickly glanced at Tang ngyun with gleaming eyes, then he shifted his gaze onto the Magic Artifact Jade Pendant.
"Boss, I’ll offer one hundred fifty thousand for this Jade Pendant. Just wrap it quickly for , I’ll take it."
The chubby man began with a very arrogant attitude, clearly not giving any regard to Zhu Fei or Tang ngyun, the two youngsters.
"This...?"
The middle-aged shopkeeper was montarily dumbfounded. He had not expected that while he was having a good conversation with Zhu Fei, such a person would suddenly appear.
But having been in business here for a long ti, he knew the importance of reputation.
Moreover, he sensed that Zhu Fei and Tang ngyun, although young, were probably not characters to be trifled with, likely having so backing behind them.
Although one hundred fifty thousand was tempting, he eventually still bit his teeth and hesitated before saying to the chubby man,
"Sir, these two had seen the Jade Pendant first. Could you perhaps consider choosing another Jade Pendant..."
"Consider your ’mom’! What are you looking at! Do you know who I am? I’m laying it down right here, don’t think I can’t see what’s up with this Jade Pendant. If you keep dawdling, watch out, I won’t be nice to you. Just hurry up and wrap it up for !"
Before the middle-aged shopkeeper could finish his previous sentence, the chubby man imdiately glared and spoke with a suprely arrogant deanor.
