C1426 Phantom Wormwood



C1426 Phantom Wormwood

This man looked to be in his twenties. He was extremely thin, and his eyes were sparkling. One could tell with a single glance that he was a very shrewd fellow.    

    

He asked the customers sitting at the tables a few times. Most likely, those who were drinking at the Wind Cloud Restaurant did not know that the other party was just trying to trick them into doing so. If there really was any news, it would not even be worth five million soul crystals; even if they had to pay fifty million soul crystals, they would still be willing to spend a lot of money.    

    

"Get out of my way, don't disturb my drinking."    

    

"Move, move to the side."    

    

… ….    

    

After being driven away by several tables of guests, the man had no choice but to walk towards Lu Chen. He shook his head in disappointment and muttered to himself, "What a bunch of inexperienced guys."    

    

"The information I provide is priceless!"    

    

As he said that, he noticed Lu Chen from the corner of his eyes. He looked Lu Chen up and down and realized that although he wasn't wearing any fancy clothes, the dishes on the table were not bad.    

    

The man seemed to have thought of something as he stuck to Lu Chen like a dog skin plaster. He called out to Lu Chen and said, "This little brother here is called Sorrow Of Ghost."    

    

"Nothing can be hidden from me outside the city. I have a priceless piece of news that I'm willing to sell to you, as long as you treat me to a meal and give me a million soul crystals as compensation."    

    

Ye Zichen rubbed his somewhat shriveled stomach, while the man chuckled as he looked at Lu Chen.    

    

"Sorrow Of Ghost?"    

    

Lu Chen sneered, but didn't expose the man's trick. Instead, he asked in confusion, "You sold them for five million soul crystals, why are you still discounting it?"    

    

"Could it be that you're looking down on me? Are you afraid that I can't pay the price that I should have? "    

    

Hearing this, Sorrow Of Ghost was stunned. He thought he was an easy to fool rogue cultivator, but now it seemed that the boy in front of him was quite quick-witted. He quickly explained, "Little brother, you misunderstood me."    

    

"I, Sorrow Of Ghost, am selling information here as well."    

    

"I see that you are a kind person facing Peace, so the information I sell you is even cheaper. Don't miss out on this opportunity, or else when others buy it I won't leak any information. After all, business requires good faith."    

    

Lu Chen shook his head. He knew that the other party wanted to look unfamiliar and didn't look like an extravagant martial artist, so he lowered the price. In other words, he was afraid that Lu Chen wouldn't be able to take out that many soul crystals after he succeeded.    

    

"Doggy eyes look down on people."    

    

Saying that, Lu Chen casually threw the storage bag onto the table. The heavy storage bag had at least tens of millions of soul crystals!    

    

"Hiss!"    

    

Sorrow Of Ghost sucked in a breath of cold air, and then his face immediately lit up like a blooming flower. He flattered, "My eyes are clear as the sun, just a glance ago I knew that you are from an extraordinary background."    

    

"How about this? Let me tell you something that is absolutely true. Just give me ten million soul crystals and I'll guarantee that you will have a great harvest."    

    

"Oh? "Are you sure?"    

    

Since the other party was so serious, Lu Chen was quite interested.    

    

"Absolutely."    

    

"If you give me ten million soul crystals, I can guarantee that I'll tell you the exact location of the underground palace. Furthermore, no one else knows."    

    

Sorrow Of Ghost patted his chest and almost twisted his head off to make a promise.    

    

Hearing that, Lu Chen smiled faintly, but he did not have any intention of opening his mouth. He did not look like he was refusing or accepting the offer.    

    

Sorrow Of Ghost looked at the soul crystal in his storage pouch with an itch in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Five million soul crystals."    

    

"As long as you have five million soul crystals, I'll immediately tell you where the underground palace is.    

    

Glancing at him, Lu Chen remained silent. Now Sorrow Of Ghost's expression completely changed, so Sorrow Of Ghost decided to sit in front of Lu Chen without uttering another word.    

    

Seeing that he didn't say anything and Lu Chen didn't say anything, the atmosphere between the two became a bit heavy as they just sat there.    

    

Seeing how the two of them were acting, whispers started coming over from the table next to them.    

    

"Did you see that? "That big bluff Sorrow Of Ghost has his eyes on strangers again."    

    

"A few days ago, I coaxed a group of outsiders to go to Black Mountain, and in the end, they crippled their legs."    

    

"Now, I'm going to be tricked again. I don't know if I'm going to break a leg or a hand."    

    

Along with bursts of ridiculing laughter, Sorrow Of Ghost's face became a bit indecisive. Perhaps it was because it was hard for him to arouse Lu Chen's interest, or perhaps the mocking laughter around him made him disgusted, Sorrow Of Ghost suddenly stood up, spread out his three fingers and said: "Two million soul crystals."    

    

"Only two million soul crystals!"    

    

Hearing this, Lu Chen still shook his head and asked: "You misunderstand. It's not that I dislike the high price, but how do you want to prove that what you said is true?"    

    

"How?"    

    

Sorrow Of Ghost was stunned, he didn't seem to have thought about it.    

    

"As long as you can prove that what you just said is true, even if it's ten million soul crystals, so what?"    

    

Lu Chen drank a cup of wine and waited quietly for the latter's reaction.    

    

After a moment, he suddenly shouted out, pointing at the few men and women at the nearby table, he said anxiously: "The three of you are disciples of the Flame Gate, before you entered the Yuntai City, you killed six of your enemies."    

    

The few men and women at the table were stunned for a moment before they recovered and stood up abruptly. Killing intent surged from their bodies. The leading man said coldly, "How do you know?"    

    

Pointing at one of the young men with a pretty face, he snorted coldly, "And three days ago, you entered the Yuntai City and the first thing you did was to go see a young lady called Ru Yue without telling your own companion. The two of you lingered in the room for no less than two hours, and you tormented her until her legs went soft."    

    

The adonis stared dumbfoundedly, and a beautiful woman who was sitting beside him slammed the shore and directly grabbed his ear, cursing: "Alright you, no wonder you always go out shopping with me these two days. It turns out that slut Ru Yue also came to the Yuntai City."    

    

"Madam, let go …"    

    

"I didn't. You better not believe this lunatic's nonsense." The adonis kneeled down and begged for mercy. How could he dare to admit it!?    

    

"And you, you sneaked into his wife's room the night before yesterday while the pretty boy went out to date a lover. You stayed there for two hours, and by the time you came out, your legs had gone soft."    

    

Without waiting for anyone to respond, Sorrow Of Ghost pointed to another older man on the table.    

    

"Brother Lu, you..." The adonis was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at his wife, whose face had changed color, and his eyes immediately turned red. He drew his sword and hacked at the man who had lost his sense of propriety.    

    

"It's a misunderstanding!"    

    

"Junior, this is all a misunderstanding. Junior Martial Sister and I are innocent and have no adultery!"    

    

… ….    

    

Sorrow Of Ghost once again appeared at another table, shaking out a lot of things. The people at the table started fighting again!    

    

The main hall of the first floor of the Wind Cloud Restaurant was in a state of chaos. People at several tables started to argue internally! If they didn't see it with their own eyes, no one would dare believe that Sorrow Of Ghost had such ability...    

    

"Now can you prove that what I said was true?" Sorrow Of Ghost stood in front of Lu Chen and proudly raised his chin.    

    

"This …"    

    

Looking at the messy hall, Lu Chen's forehead was covered in black lines!
