Chapter 175 I can afford to lose
Seeing that the deal was about to be concluded, Jiang Lang looked slightly surprised at the sudden voice, then turned around and saw a young man in rich clothes walking over.
The man's face is slightly feminine, and his long and narrow eyes reveal a hint of smile, but they make people feel particularly sharp.
After being glanced at by this gaze, Jiang Lang felt a little uncomfortable.
It felt like being stared at by a poisonous snake, like a light on my back.
Jiang Lang's soul was so sharp that he immediately sensed that this person was hostile to him!
Jiang Lang's heart trembled, and after searching for memories in his mind, he confirmed that he had never seen the other party before. Where did this hostility come from?
Just as his thoughts were whirling, the man in rich clothes immediately threw a jade bottle onto the stall without even looking at it, saying: "Shopkeeper, here are nine thousand drops of vitality liquid. Give me the earth mother stone."<
/p>
The stall owner in front of him was overjoyed. He didn't expect that someone would be so generous and wanted to buy three mother stones at once without even negotiating the price!
There is no doubt that this is a big deal.
The stall owner looked excited. He picked up the jade bottle and quickly counted it with his spiritual thoughts. He immediately said with a smile: "Nine thousand drops of vitality liquid, the right amount."
As he said that, he handed the square box containing the three earth mother stones to the man in the Chinese clothes. Seeing this, Jiang Lang raised his eyebrows and said: "Wait a minute, storekeeper, you just agreed to order it."
Sold me a mother stone."
Cui Wenling said helpfully: "Businesses have to be on a first-come, first-served basis."
"If someone buys three mother stones, you buy one. The one with the highest price should get it."
Looking at the two people, the stall owner had a smile on his face, looking nonchalant, and then said: "If you can afford a higher price, take these three mother stones."
Jiang Lang looked a little ugly. It was obvious that the stall owner realized that the mother stone suddenly became easy to sell, so he started to raise the price when the lion opened his mouth.
The man in fine clothes beside him inadvertently flashed an angry look on his face, and then his eyes flashed, he looked at Jiang Lang and said proudly: "I will accompany you to the end no matter how much you want to pay."
The man in rich clothes looked down at Jiang Lang indifferently, with disdain in his expression and a condescending attitude, completely ignoring the latter.
Seeing this scene, the stall owner's face was full of excitement. Naturally, he was happy to see the two of them competing for the Earth Mother Stone. No matter what, he would be the one who made the big profit.
He couldn't help but add fuel to the fire and said: "I only have these three high-quality earth mother stones left in my stall. I'm not bragging. I'm the only one in the entire Zhenbao Pavilion who has such high-quality earth mother stones.
If you leave this village, you won’t have this store. You two need to think carefully.”
Jiang Lang raised his eyebrows, it's so hateful, this black-hearted store owner.
How could he not know this stall owner's little thoughts? Do you really think others are stupid and have too much money?
However, when he looked at the man in fine clothes, he didn't look like someone who was short of money. If he really wanted to fight for the Earth Mother Stone, he would not be able to compete with him.
After all, the total amount of vitality liquid in his body is less than 10,000 drops.
Besides, if he raises the price to compete for the Earth Mother Stone and spends more than the Earth Mother Stone is worth, wouldn’t he be taken advantage of?
Jiang Lang hesitated for a moment, restrained his impulse, and did not bid.
Looking at Jiang Lang, the man in fine clothes had a hint of joking in his eyes. Then he looked away and picked up the square box containing the three mother stones.
Seeing that the two of them did not increase their prices, the stall owner beside him lost his mind and couldn't help but secretly thought that it was a pity.
But even so, he still made a lot of money this time.
The man in rich clothes took the earth mother stone with him and was about to turn around and leave. Cui Wenling immediately stepped forward and said: "Brother, if you don't urgently need these three earth mother stones, can you bear the pain and give up one of the earth mother stones to us?"
As for the price, we can still discuss it."
Cui Wenling naturally didn't want to see Jiang Lang come to Zhenbao Pavilion and return empty-handed, so he asked to see if things had turned around.
The man in rich clothes paused, his eyes quickly passed over Cui Wenling's face, then towards Jiang Lang, and said with a faint smile: "Do you want the Earth Mother Stone? In fact, I can use these three Earth Mother Stones.
Only one piece is needed if it is useful.
But even if I destroy the remaining two earth mother stones, I won’t give them to you, so don’t waste your efforts anymore.”
Then, he ridiculed: "You are self-aware and want to carve talisman marks on the mother stone. With your ability, you can use those inferior products. Why are you so overestimating your capabilities?"
Jiang Lang's expression suddenly changed, with a cold light in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Are you Qin Yan?"
Jiang Lang was still thinking about the relationship between him and the other party just now, and he would be hostile. However, after hearing these words, he suddenly realized.
After buying all these earth mother stones, and knowing that he needs to carve talisman marks on the earth mother stones to make it clear that he is targeting him, based on all the above, the only one who can be so hostile to him is the one who secretly made a stumbling block to him not long ago.
Qin Yan.
Hearing this, Qin Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said playfully: "You guessed it, this should be our first meeting."
Jiang Lang thought of this man's secret plan, and there was a surge of anger in his chest, and asked: "You and I have never met each other. It can be said that we have no grievances in the past and no enmity in recent times. Why are you targeting me?"
"I can only blame you for your misfortune. You blocked my way. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, in my opinion, it is an extremely eyesore and must be removed."
Qin Yan spoke calmly and indifferently, as if to him, this was just a matter of course.
At this moment, Qin Yan was in a very happy mood. Not long ago, he received news from Lu Peng that all the plots against Jiang Lang had failed, and Zhong Xian had learned about everything about him.
In an instant, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, thinking that without Zhong Xian's help from now on, he, a registered disciple of Tianfu Peak, would no longer have the possibility of becoming a direct disciple.
After all, his plan against a newcomer this time is a bit despicable and a bit over the line.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Just when he thought his future was gloomy, he got the animal skin roll given by Zhong Xian. It was Mu Qingyang who gave him and Jiang Lang a chance to compete fairly.
All his worries disappeared. He even felt that it was Mu Qingyang's preference for him. After all, he was also the latter's nominal disciple.
Since he was given this opportunity, he must seize it no matter what. He must win this competition!
He wants to trample this kid Jiang Lang under his feet, and let Mu Qingyang know that he, Qin Yan, is the genius in the rune path and the person most qualified to inherit his mantle.
Hearing Qin Yan's righteousness, Jiang Lang was furious. A cold light burst out from his eyes, and an extremely powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body.
"Do you want to fight with me here? Who gave you the courage? Since you don't know whether to live or die, you can come here and defeat you today, so as not to waste time five days later."
Qin Yan stared at Jiang Lang and sneered. There was no fear on his face, and a terrifying aura surged out of his body, confronting him tit for tat.
Seeing that the atmosphere on the court was tense, Cui Wenling tugged on Jiang Lang's robe and stopped him: "Jiang Lang, don't be impulsive. This is Zhenbao Pavilion and there are law enforcement officials. If you do something, you will be severely punished."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Lang was keenly aware of a powerful aura and glanced at him and Qin Yan.
Jiang Lang glanced at Qin Yan coldly and calmed down. Of course, he had no intention of taking action here, but he just couldn't control his emotions for the moment.
Qin Yan snorted coldly, followed by the aura erupting from his body, and then stopped.
There was a chill in his eyes and he said: "Don't think that just because your vitality has reached nine hundred feet, you are already qualified to be on an equal footing with us Pure Land people? You have to remember that you come from the wilderness and have the blood of the wilderness flowing in your body. This can never be changed.
.
I come from a noble family in the Pure Land, which is a level that you simply cannot reach. There is a natural chasm between you and me, which you cannot cross in this life. No, when you truly realize this gap, you will spend your whole life.
When you can't shrink even if you chase, you won't even have the courage to cross over.
Taking a step back, even if you win this competition, so what? You still can't change the gap between you and me."
When he said these words, Qin Yan stared at Jiang Lang with a playful expression.
He wants Jiang Lang to know how powerful his birth and background are, and no matter what, the latter cannot compare.
Qin Yan is not someone who deliberately shows off. He said these words just to disturb Jiang Lang's mood. It is best for the latter to have no time to prepare for the competition in the next few days.
He knew that most people born in small places had a natural sense of inferiority. It would be great if he could verbally defeat his opponent's mood and make him collapse.
However, Qin Yan soon became disappointed.
"Qin Yan, put away your little tricks. I really don't know where your confidence comes from. Your previous plan against me has completely failed. Haven't you learned your lesson?"
Jiang Lang's face showed no wave, and he smiled contemptuously and said: "I thought you would be smarter, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid."
As a person who wants to become a strong man, how could he be affected by this guy's few words?
Having said this, Jiang Lang looked at Qin Yan with a slightly sympathetic light and said: "What you should worry about most now is yourself. You have paid so much price to target me, an insignificant person in the wilderness. If this competition fails,
, what should you do if you can’t become the direct disciple of the master of Tianfu Peak?
For me, winning or losing in the competition does not have much impact. If I win, I will earn the title of a direct disciple of the master of Tianfu Peak.
If I lose, I will still be me, and no one will care. In fact, I will still have the confidence to brag with others in the future. At a certain time, I, a young man from the wilderness, was lucky enough to compete on the same stage with a prodigy born from a famous family. Although I lost, I still lost.
Rong.
In other words, I can afford to lose, but what about you?"
Hearing this, Qin Yan's face darkened, as if he had been stabbed by something, and he said fiercely: "It's impossible, you are delusional..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Lang interrupted: "Whether it's delusional or not, you'll know right away. In the Rune Path, there are many people who are more talented than me.
But you are definitely not among them, because with your stupid behavior, you don't look like that kind of person with extraordinary talents."
Qin Yan's face was ashen and he was speechless for a moment, unable to say anything to refute.
Jiang Lang's words are indeed true. In order to become the direct disciple of the master of Tianfu Peak, he borrowed the power of his family and paid a huge price.
The identity and status he has today was not achieved by him alone. He represents not only himself, but also the family behind him.
Just imagine, if he fails this competition and has no chance of entering Tianfu Peak, what will he do in the future? The cultivation behind the family that has put so much effort will be in vain.
