Chapter 152 - -return of ten thousand swords (3)
I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess
It was as if he was in the middle of an ocean. Even the righteousness Qi in his body increased. Gulp. She swallowed hard, grabbed Xiao ranâs arm, and said quickly,ââI want it! Iâll take as many as you have!â Xiao ran shook his hand off and kept the painting. âThis painting isnât cheap.â âMoney is not a problem. Name a price and Iâll go back to get the money.â Xiao ran raised a finger. One million taels for one painting. He was asking for an exorbitant price and was waiting for him to haggle. He had set the price at five hundred thousand taels. âA million taels? No problem, how many do you have?â Chen wenheng agreed. Xiao ran was a little dumbfounded. Was this asking for too little? It seemed too late to change her mind now. âThere are two more.â He took out the other two paintings and opened them up for him to take a look. They were also exquisite paintings that contained a strong sense of righteousness that did not dissipate. âWait for me here and donât let anyone know. Iâll go back and get the money.â Chen wenheng said impatiently and quickly ran away. âI really donât have the talent to do business.â Xiao ran shook his head. When he came out again, he was with Wen Fuxian. Before he even arrived, Wen Fuxianâs loud voice came first,âwhere is he?â âTeacher, lower your voice. Donât let others hear you.â Chen wenheng reminded. The advisor nodded and walked quickly to Xiao ran.âWhereâs the painting?â âWhere are the silver notes?â Xiao ran retorted. Chen wenheng took out the silver notes, each one was 100000 taels. There were 30 notes in total, which was exactly 3 million taels. âCan you take out the painting now?â The civil servant said. Xiao ran took out the painting and opened it for him to take a look. âItâs indeed the work of the divine hands. This time, itâs a fine work. The righteousness Qi it contains is far greater than before.â Wen Fu nodded first. He pouted his lips and motioned for Chen wenheng to pay. Chen wenheng handed over the money, and Xiao ran passed the painting to him. He rubbed his fingers together and it was exactly three million taels. He kept the silver notes and turned to leave. The civil servant stood in front of him.âFriend, do you still have more of the sacred hands âpaintings?â Donât worry, as long as itâs done well, itâll be like this. Money is not a problem. â âNo,â Xiao ran refused. The civil servant wanted to stop him but realized that he could not do it. Xiao ran went around him easily and disappeared into the crowd in a few flashes. âTeacher,â Chen wenheng called out in dissatisfaction. âThis old man was too impetuous.â Wen Fu shook his head. His eyes glowed. âFrom the exchange just now, this personâs strength isnât simple. Heâs probably not as ordinary as he looks on the surface. I canât believe I canât stop him even with my cultivation. â Chen wenheng rolled his eyes.âIsnât that obvious? If he didnât have some tricks up his sleeve, would he dare to sell sacred hands âpaintings?â His expression was serious. âTeacher, what do you think his relationship with sacred hands is?â âIâm not sure! The appearance of the sacred hands is too mysterious. I canât guess it. â He returned to the Imperial prison. The sky was already dark, and the night had fallen. Zhu Yuyan was still guarding the place. When she saw Xiao ran, her beautiful eyes rolled around a few times and she teased,ââAnother one giving me money?â âYes.â Xiao ran nodded. âAre you serious?â Zhu Yuyan was shocked. She had just mentioned it casually, but she didnât expect her to be right. âWhat else?â Xiao ran retorted. He took out three million silver and passed it to her. âHereâs three million taels. With the money from this trip, it should be enough. â âWhere did you get the money?â âYouâre too curious. â Xiao ran glared at her. He waved his hand and left. On the way back. Little Zhou and Taoist master Xuan Yang found him. They were in a hurry, and their eyes were serious. âWhat happened?â Xiao ran asked. âBrother Xiao, something bad has happened. The divine sword guards have been targeted by the demons. They have asked us to hand over the three-headed Dragonâs murderer. Whenever our people appear outside, she will injure one of them. Up until now, she has already injured dozens of people. Even with the help of medicinal pills, it will take one or two months for them to recover. â Little Zhou said in a serious tone. âAre you guys here to remind me?â âYes.â Little Zhou nodded. âDaren was afraid that something would happen to you and was worried about me coming out alone, so he asked the Taoist priest to accompany me.â âWhat was the reaction of vice Sword Master Qin and the others?â Xiao ran asked. âWeâve already sent out experts to search the entire city for this demon. He said that if he caught her, he would dismember her into a thousand pieces. â âOh.â Xiao ran responded. He already had some guesses as to who the murderer was. It was most likely the Holy maiden of the ice blue profound heart bird clan, who was also the rabbitâs master. It seemed that he was determined to get the ice-blue sacred flame. âBrother Xiao, are you scared?â Seeing that he was not speaking, Xiao Zhou asked. Before Xiao ran could say anything, he spoke again. âEven though sheâs at the mystical Grandmaster stage and is powerful, itâs still easy for us divine sword guards to take her down. However, this demon was very smart and was good at concealment techniques. It hid in the dark, so it would take a lot of effort to find it. If we know where sheâs hiding, weâll be able to suppress her immediately. â âLetâs go! Letâs go back first. â Xiao ran said. The three of them returned safely. When they arrived at the divine sword guards, Shen Yiming happened to be waiting for them in the courtyard.âHave you settled the matter?â âYes.â Xiao ran nodded. âLittle Zhou should have told you about the demon, right?â âIâve already told you. â âThis time, Sword Master Lei was furious. Not only were the ordinary staff injured, even vice Sword Master Fang was severely injured. Heâs still recuperating in bed. Whatâs even more outrageous is that this demonic devil actually sent a message to us, asking us to hand over the murderer. She did not know who killed the three-headed flood Dragon. Even if she did, who did she think she was? You want us to hand over the person just like that? Do we, the divine sword guards, still have any sense of shame?â Shen Yiming said coldly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
