Chapter 544 The Power of Jade Pendant

So let’s call the people who can make the decision!Might as well talk about the price.

If someone else said that, the young man would definitely not call her, and he might even drive the old lady away.

But the person in front of him gave him such a palpitating and weird feeling that he actually felt like he wanted to bow his head and surrender. He himself worked for others, and this feeling usually came from those in power, so when he heard what the old lady said, he Hurry up and get it done.

Not long after he went in, he ran out again.

"Grandma, come in with me! The shopkeeper asks you to go in and talk."

At this time, there was not only the shopkeeper sitting inside, but also a prince who came over early in the morning to discuss things.

The inside looks a bit like a courtyard, but the courtyard is divided into several parts, which are separated by screens. The shopkeeper sits in the most conspicuous place, where there are two low stools and a low table, with some Tea.

Jing Xi saw this scene after entering, but... there seemed to be someone behind the screen!

She seemed to glance at the screen inadvertently, but to the person behind the screen, it felt like a basin of cold water being poured from head to toe, and cold sweat broke out unconsciously.

Naturally, the shopkeeper also felt the old lady's momentum, and quickly stood up and said with a smile.
"Senior, do you have something to sell? This junior will definitely handle it for you."

Jing Xi took out the prepared jade pendant, strung it together with a very ordinary rope, and tied it around her neck in front of him.

"This jade pendant can save five lives. If you don't believe it, you can just attack me with fatal moves."

At first when he heard this, the shopkeeper thought he was dreaming. After thinking carefully about what Jing Xi meant, his heart suddenly trembled. If this jade pendant can really...

"Xiao Li, go get a knife!"

Although the control of weapons here is very strict, some large shops also allow private concealment of weapons, because no one knows whether something dangerous will happen at some point.

Xiao Li's legs went weak when he heard the shopkeeper wanted to get a knife. This Xiao Li was the young man who received Jing Xi before.

But he had to listen to the shopkeeper's words. Although he was somewhat related to the shopkeeper, he was not required to do it, so no matter what he was asked to do, he had no choice but to hold his nose and sit there.

After bringing the knife, the shopkeeper's hands were trembling. It was really difficult for him to use a killing move against a powerful old lady.

At this time, the person behind the screen finally gave up.

He looks about 20 years old, has a handsome appearance, and his expression is aloof and indifferent, which is a perfect match for a male protagonist.

However, Jing Xi only glanced at him and was no longer interested, and only said sarcastically.

"Can you hurry up? I'm in a hurry, old lady!"

The prince didn't dare to delay, so he quickly took the knife from the shopkeeper, with a cold light in his eyes, and struck Jing Xi's neck with the knife.

In this situation, if an ordinary person knew that this jade pendant could be saved, he would probably be so frightened that his legs would weaken and he would fall to the ground.

But for Jing Xi, this person's speed was too slow. In her eyes, it was just like an ordinary movement slowed down ten times, so there was nothing scary at all.

Sure enough, when the knife was about to stab Jing Xi, the jade pendant emitted a dazzling light, instantly unfolded a protective shield, and ejected the prince, causing him to fall flat on his face.
