Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 142 Making you spend money to buy your things in your own home.

Hearing the words of the aging king of the Ji family, the onlookers calmed down a bit.

The rare treasures in the source are often earth-shattering items, some of which are of such high quality that even powerful saints would come down to fight for them.

"I don't know the specifics, but it looks like a fruit that resembles an infant's fruit," Qi Hao said calmly.

That's about all the things his Martial Arts Heavenly Eye can see.

After all, he can only look, not judge.

If they could cooperate with Ye Fan, one of them would have the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye to see through illusions, and the other would have the Source Master's inheritance to control. In addition, with their identities as successors of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, they could gamble away everything in the Primordial Ancient Mine!
Even if the Primordial Ancient Mine is unhappy and wants to take action against them, they're not afraid. They can find a rainy night, have Ye Fan change into tattered clothes, and stage a scene outside the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land: "The Primordial Ancient Mine wants to capture me. I'm fine, but what about my sister? She's still so young..."

Whether those supreme beings from the Primordial Ancient Mine will survive the next day is another matter entirely.

Wang Teng's thoughts were wandering in the crowd, but some people in the crowd realized what was happening.

"A fruit that looks like a baby? Could it be the legendary longevity fruit?" someone asked, sounding surprised and uncertain.

The others also came to their senses and began to guess at the uses of the fruit.

Among them, some are very knowledgeable, and some are even from families that have inherited the art of source techniques. Although they are not as skilled as source masters, they have been passed down for many years and have a deep understanding of sources. Moreover, they are familiar with the rare treasures within sources and can even guess their functions just by hearing a rough idea.

"It looks like an infant, could it be a ginseng fruit?" someone asked, their eyes filled with shock.

The Peacock King and the Azure Dragon King were also stunned.

"What are you doing? If you have a treasure that can extend lifespan, why not just buy it? What if this old guy actually extends your lifespan?"

The Peacock King urgently transmitted his message.

However, when he looked up, he saw the aging king of the Ji family looking at him with a half-smile.

The Peacock King's hair stood on end again, and he immediately calmed down, refusing to say another word.

In reality, even the aging king of the Ji family didn't know what the Peacock King was talking about. He just felt that the Peacock King was going to say something inappropriate, so he anticipated it and looked at the Peacock King with a half-smile, putting a little pressure on him.

Sure enough, the Peacock King felt guilty.

"Does such a thing really exist?" asked the aging king of the Ji family, his aura having changed somewhat from before.

“Yes, and it’s among these ten stones, but the Ji family elders can only choose one,” Qi Hao said calmly.

Even when facing a king nearing the end of his life, he remained terrifyingly calm.

Seeing this scene, even the ancient imperial soldiers couldn't help but sigh.

"You're really brave, kid. You dare to act like this against someone who can reach the level of a Dao-Slaying King in this era."

Wang Teng ignored the ancient imperial weapons' lament.

The brave one wasn't him, it was Qi Hao.

“One piece…” The aging king of the Ji family pondered.

The Supreme Elder of the Ji family stepped forward, intending to collect the ten stones, not to sell them, but to cut them himself later.

However, this action was stopped by the aging king of the Ji family.

"When you're in business, the most important thing is integrity. How can you ruin your reputation for something so trivial?" The aging king of the Ji family spoke, instructing the two elders of the Ji family.

The two elderly elders, their hair already gray, bowed their heads, receiving a scolding like grandsons. "One out of ten, including a treasure that can prolong life, I'll take the gamble," the aging king of the Ji family said nonchalantly.

He leaned on his cane and came to Qi Hao, then bent down and personally tapped the ten stones.

Of the ten stones, the largest is comparable to a small artificial mountain, full of pits and bumps, and could easily serve as an artificial mountain if thrown into a pond. The smallest is only the size of a watermelon, not even big enough to fit into the crevices of an artificial mountain.

The aging king of the Ji family watched intently, and the onlookers couldn't help but gather around to examine the ten stones on the ground.

"Hey red-haired guy, are you selling these stones?" someone asked.

Hearing that these stones contained divine essence and things that could prolong life, they were eager to try their luck and buy one.

“Of course I can sell it. I’ll sell it for five times the price of the Ji family’s stone workshop.” Qi Hao said calmly with a smile.

Upon hearing Qi Hao's words, the two elders of the Ji family turned pale.

Well, you little rascal, you're selling things right in front of the original owner?
They immediately asked for five times the price!
How dare you!
If the aging king of the Ji family hadn't just reminded the two elders of the Ji family, they probably would have already chased them away with dark faces.

Having done business in the Northern Region for so many years, I've experienced both losses and gains, but I've never seen anyone resell a stone at a high price from a sacred family's stone workshop, without even paying or cutting it into pieces.

However, the aging king of the Ji family was carefully selecting stones, while the two powerful demons, the Peacock King and the Azure Dragon King, stood obediently to the side. Who would dare to be presumptuous?

"Young friend, are you sure that you can cut out the things you mentioned from these stones?" an old man asked.

Those with sharp eyes nearby had already recognized him. Wasn't this an elder from Yaoguang Stone Workshop? He had come to watch the excitement, but he had actually joined in himself!

"Of course! If I can't cut it out, I'll compensate you tenfold!" Qi Hao waved his hand arrogantly.

Upon hearing Qi Hao's words, everyone else's faces were filled with excitement.

However, the aging king of the Ji family was still there selecting stones. Although they were itching to buy them, they did not dare to push past the king and rush over to buy the stones.

Therefore, they could only watch helplessly as the aging king of the Ji family selected the stones.

The aging king of the Ji family was also a master of Source Arts. Having guarded the Holy City Stone Archway for so many years, his mastery of Source Arts was extraordinary.

However, after looking for a long time, he still couldn't find the stone that supposedly contained the fruit of life.

"Could it be that my skills are not good enough?" The aging king of the Ji family sighed softly.

Ultimately, he chose a stone the size of a millstone.

Nine stones remain at the scene.

The two elders of the Ji family reacted quickly, each choosing a stone before retreating.

The others didn't have time to carefully select, and the remaining seven stones were snatched up almost instantly.

"Does the Ji family also want to buy stone?" Qi Hao asked with a smile.

The Supreme Elder of the Ji family felt a surge of resentment.

This is happening right here in their own stone workshop, and these guys haven't even paid yet, but they're already asking them for money.

But with so many people watching, and their family's patriarch having spoken, even though they felt resentful and annoyed, they all nodded and said, "Buy!"

“Alright, then please pay Yuan first.” Qi Hao smiled and extended his hand.
