ér tā men zhè fù biǎo qíng ， què shì luò zài le yǒu xīn rén de yǎn dǐ 。
而他们这副表情，却是落在了有心人的眼底。
Their expressions, however, fell into the eyes of those who were observant.
“ zài xià wǔ èr ， gěi qián bèi jiàn lǐ 。”
“在下午二，给前辈见礼。”
"Pay your respects to the senior at two in the afternoon."
tū rán ” yí gè shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ” lín xuān huí guò tóu ” què shì yī shēn cái shòu gāo de xiū xiān zhě ， shí lì bù zhí yī tí ， bǐ zì jǐ de liǎng gè tú dì shāo gāo yī xiē ， gāng gāng tà rù zhù jī qī 。
突然”一个声音传入耳朵”林轩回过头”却是一身材瘦高的修仙者，实力不值一提，比自己的两个徒弟稍高一些，刚刚踏入筑基期。
Suddenly, a voice entered his ears. Lin Xuan turned around and saw a tall and slender cultivator. His strength was negligible compared to his two disciples, just barely entering the Foundation Establishment stage.
dàn wéi rén què shì yī fù hěn jīng míng de yàng zi 。
但为人却是一副很精明的样子。
But he had an astute demeanor.
“ chēng yǒu hé shì ？” lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo ， bù xián bù dàn de dào ， suī rán tā yǐn cáng de shí lì ， dàn zěn me kàn ” yě bú huì hé qū qū yī míng zhù jī qī xiū shì yǒu jiāo jí 。
“称有何事？”林轩眉头一挑，不咸不淡的道，虽然他隐藏的实力，但怎么看”也不会和区区一名筑基期修士有交集。
"Is there something you need?" Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, speaking with indifference. Although he concealed his true power, it seemed that he would never have anything to do with a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator.
“ qián bèi xī nù ， wǎn bèi zì rán bù gǎn yǒu è yì ， wǒ lái dào zhè lǐ ， shì wèi le huà jiě nín de nán tí 。”，“ wǒ de nán tí ？”
“前辈息怒，晚辈自然不敢有恶意，我来到这里，是为了化解您的难题。”，“我的难题？”
"The senior should not be angry. I naturally wouldn't harbor any ill intentions. I came here to help solve your problem," the man said, smiling.
“ bù cuò ， qǐng shù wǎn bèi zhí yán ” qián bèi kǒng pà shì chū lín wǒ men dà huāng hǎi yù ， yě shì tóu huí lái jiāng yú dǎo gǎn jí 。”
“不错，请恕晚辈直言”前辈恐怕是初临我们大荒海域，也是头回来江鱼岛赶集。”
"Your problem?"
“ nǎ yòu rú hé ？” lín xuān lěng lěng de shuō 。
“哪又如何？”林轩冷冷的说。
"You're right. Allow me to speak frankly. The senior must be new to our Great Vast Sea region and is coming for the first time to the Fish Market Island."
“ hē hē ， qián bèi jì rán shì tóu huí lái cǐ ， miàn duì zhè wēi yǐ wàn jì de tān wèi ， kǒng pà duō shǎo gǎn dào yǒu xiē bù shì ， jí shǐ xiǎng yào gòu mǎi shén me dōng xī ， yě wú cóng xià shǒu ， bù zhī dào wǎn bèi kě yǒu shuō cuò ？” niú èr xī pí xiào liǎn de kāi kǒu shuō 。
“呵呵，前辈既然是头回来此，面对这巍以万计的摊位，恐怕多少感到有些不适，即使想要购买什么东西，也无从下手，不知道晚辈可有说错？”牛二嬉皮笑脸的开口说。
"So what?" Lin Xuan replied coldly.
“ ó ， mò fēi nǐ yǒu shén me jiě jué zhī cè ？”
“哦，莫非你有什么解决之策？”
"Haha, since you are a newcomer here, facing thousands of stalls, it's bound to feel somewhat uncomfortable. Even if you want to buy something, where do you start? Might I have said anything wrong?" Niu Er grinned as he spoke.
suǒ wèi wén wén xián gē ér zhī yǎ yì ， tīng duì fāng shuō le nà me duō ， lín xuān nǎ hái bù zhī dào duì fāng yòng yì rú hé ， rú guǒ xiàn zài dōu hái měng lǐ měng dǒng ， nà tā zhè me duō nián de xiū xiān zhī lù ， qǐ bù shì bái zǒu le 。
所谓闻闻弦歌而知雅意，听对方说了那么多，林轩哪还不知道对方用意如何，如果现在都还懵里懵懂，那他这么多年的修仙之路，岂不是白走了。
"Oh, so you have some solution?"
“ dāng rán le ， bù mán qián bèi shuō ， wǎn bèi lái dào zhè lǐ ” jiù shì wèi nín zhè yàng de gāo rén jiě jué rán méi zhī jí ” nín xū yào gòu mǎi shén me dōng xī ， jǐn kě gěi wǒ shuō ， zhǐ yào shì zhè jí shì zhōng diàn pù yǒu de ， wǎn bèi jiù kě yǐ gěi nín zhǎo chū lái ， tóng lǐ ， nín ruò xiǎng chū shòu shén me dōng xī ， wǒ yě kě yǐ bāng nín lián luò mǎi zhǔ ， ér nín zhǐ yào gěi yì diǎn xīn kǔ fèi jiù kě yǐ le wǎn bèi bù tān xīn ， nín suí biàn gěi diǎn jiù xíng 。
“当然了，不瞒前辈说，晚辈来到这里”就是为您这样的高人解决燃眉之急”您需要购买什么东西，尽可给我说，只要是这集市中店铺有的，晚辈就可以给您找出来，同理，您若想出售什么东西，我也可以帮您联络买主，而您只要给一点辛苦费就可以了晚辈不贪心，您随便给点就行。
The phrase 'hearing the strings and knowing the melody' came to mind for Lin Xuan. After hearing all that the man had said, how could he not understand his intentions? If he remained clueless now, after all these years of cultivation, would it be worth it?
“ ó qū qū yī míng zhù jī qī xiū xiān zhě ， nǐ hái yǒu zhè yàng de běn shì me ？”， lín xuān lěng lěng de shuō 。
“哦区区一名筑基期修仙者，你还有这样的本事么？”，林轩冷冷的说。
"Of course. Just bring me the best."
“ qián bèi ， zhè jiàn shì qíng ， yǔ jìng jiè shí lì fēn háo guān xì yě wú ， bù mán nín shuō wǎn bèi jiù shì dì tóu shé ， měi nián de là yuè èr shí yī ， dū huì lái zuò pǎo tuǐ de shēng yì ， nín jǐn guǎn fàng xīn ， zài shuō ， zài xià zěn me gǎn dé zuì nín ， nà kě shì lǎo shòu xīng shàng diào ， bǐ zì zhǎo má fán hái yú chǔn me ？”
“前辈，这件事情，与境界实力分毫关系也无，不瞒您说晚辈就是地头蛇，每年的腊月二十一，都会来做跑腿的生意，您尽管放心，再说，在下怎么敢得罪您，那可是老寿星上吊，比自找麻烦还愚蠢么？”
Niu Er was efficient and arrived at the inn after an hour or so: "Senior, I've already contacted the seller. All that's left is for you to go over there. As long as both parties are satisfied, we can make the transaction immediately."
“ ń zhè huà yǒu lǐ ， wǒ què shí shì xiǎng yào mǎi yī xiē dōng xī ， zǐ yáng cǎo ， bù zhī dào nǐ yǒu méi yǒu mén lù ， zhì yú shù liàng ， yuè duō yuè hǎo ， fàng xīn ， lín mǒu bú shì kè bó de jiā huo zhǐ yào zhēn bàn shì lì suǒ ， wǒ huì fù gěi nǐ mǎn yì bào chóu de 。”
“嗯这话有理，我确实是想要买一些东西，紫阳草，不知道你有没有门路，至于数量，越多越好，放心，林某不是刻薄的家伙只要真办事利索，我会付给你满意报酬的。”
Lin Xuan was delighted and paid up right away.
“ zǐ yáng cǎo ， xíng ， wǎn bèi yào wèn yī xià cái xiǎo de ， qián bèi kě yǐ qù shuǐ jīng gé děng wǒ ” nà lǐ de měi shí hěn bú cuò ” zhè shì dì tú 。”
“紫阳草，行，晚辈要问一下才晓得，前辈可以去水晶阁等我”那里的美食很不错”这是地图。”
Within a single meal, the transaction was completed. The quality of the Purple Lightning Grass was excellent, and the quantity was sufficient. The only drawback was that the price was slightly higher than expected.
niú èr yī biān shuō yī biān pāo guò lái yī yù tóng jiǎn ， lín xuān shùn shǒu jiē guò ， yòng shén shí yī sǎo ， suí hòu jiù dài zhe liǎng gè tú ér zǒu xiàng nà ge dì fāng 。
牛二一边说一边抛过来一玉瞳简，林轩顺手接过，用神识一扫，随后就带着两个徒儿走向那个地方。
But Lin Xuan had gone through many trials and tribulations, becoming rich beyond measure. A few crystals were nothing to him. He agreed with Niu Er on the spot, making a successful deal.
shì yī dòng jiǔ lóu ， yě shì xiū shì yòng fǎ shù lín shí dā jiàn de bù guò dào bìng bù pò luò ， pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn měi lún měi huàn de 。
是一栋酒楼，也是修士用法术临时搭建的不过倒并不破落，颇有几分美轮美奂的。
As for Niu Er, who had facilitated this transaction, Lin Xuan did not neglect his efforts. He casually tossed a small bag of crystals at the boy, rendering him speechless and grateful as he bid farewell to Lin Xuan, the god of wealth.
lín xuān dài zhe liǎng gè tú ér jìn qù ， lǐ miàn chú le rén zú hái yǒu hǎi zú de měi shí ， xiū xiān zhě suī kě bì gǔ dàn yě dōu shì yǒu qī qíng liù yù 。
林轩带着两个徒儿进去，里面除了人族还有海族的美食，修仙者虽可辟谷但也都是有七情六欲。
The sisters from Shangguan were equally impressed. The Herb School was now in decline, relying heavily on their tiny herb garden for resources. However, it took days for the herbs to mature, and there were so many fellow cultivators within the sect, each requiring resources for cultivation. Even though they were the daughters of the sect's leader, they received no special treatment. A single crystal was a luxury they could only dream of splitting in half.
lín xuān diǎn le yī zhuō měi wèi ， fēn fù zài gè tú ér yǔ zì jǐ tóng zhuō ， rán hòu jiù kāi shǐ dà chī dà hē 。
林轩点了一桌美味，吩咐再个徒儿与自己同桌，然后就开始大吃大喝。
Lin Xuan's lavish spending left the sisters wide-eyed with admiration. Although they felt heartache at his extravagance, they understood the hierarchical respect and did not dare to criticize him for wasting resources.
nà niú èr bàn shì hěn dé lì ， cái děng le yí gè shí chén zuǒ yòu ， jiù lái dào le jiǔ lóu ：“ qián bèi ， wǎn bèi yī fān xīn kǔ ， yǐ jīng lián luò dào mài jiā le ， xiàn zài jiù děng nín guò qù ， zhǐ yào shuāng fāng mǎn yì ， jiù kě yǐ mǎ shàng jiāo yì 。”
那牛二办事很得力，才等了一个时辰左右，就来到了酒楼：“前辈，晚辈一番辛苦，已经联络到卖家了，现在就等您过去，只要双方满意，就可以马上交易。”
Could all high-ranking cultivators be so wealthy?
lín xuān dà xǐ ， zì rán shì lì kè jié zhàng hòu suí tā lí qù 。
林轩大喜，自然是立刻结账后随他离去。
This question never crossed their minds, but having a comfortable life was something both desired. They resolved to work hard in cultivation and hoped one day to achieve such prosperity.
jǐn jǐn yī dùn fàn de gōng fu ” jiù jiāo yì jié shù ， nà pī zǐ yáng cǎo de pǐn zhì hěn bú cuò ， shù liàng yě gòu duō ， yào shuō měi zhōng bù zú ， jiù shì jià gé xiāng duì lái shuō ， gāo le nà me yì diǎn diǎn 。
仅仅一顿饭的功夫”就交易结束，那批紫阳草的品质很不错，数量也够多，要说美中不足，就是价格相对来说，高了那么一点点。
Having achieved his goal, Lin Xuan had no intention of returning immediately. The market seemed bustling, but it only lasted for a single day.
bù guò lín xuān jīng guò yī lián chuàn mào xiǎn ” rú jīn shì fù dé liú yóu a ， zhè diǎn jīng shí ， zì rán bù zài hū ， yú shì shuāng fāng yī pāi jí hé ， jiē dà huān xǐ de jiāo yì chéng gōng 。
不过林轩经过一连串冒险”如今是富得流油啊，这点晶石，自然不在乎，于是双方一拍即合，皆大欢喜的交易成功。
With nothing else to do, he decided to explore more. He wouldn't mind going back the next day.
zhì yú qiān xiàn dā qiáo de niú èr ， lín xuān zì rán yě bú huì kuī tā ， suí biàn diū chū yī xiǎo dài jīng shí ， jiù jiāng nà xiǎo zi zá dé yūn yūn hū hū ” qiān ēn wàn xiè de gōng sòng lín xuān zhè cái shén pú sà lí kāi le 。
至于牵线搭桥的牛二，林轩自然也不会亏他，随便丢出一小袋晶石，就将那小子砸得晕晕乎乎”千恩万谢的恭送林轩这财神菩萨离开了。
Moreover, Lin Xuan planned to buy several high-grade灵器 (spiritual artifacts). While his storage bag contained many treasures, his two disciples' low cultivation levels meant they could not use them for now.
shàng guān jiě mèi tóng yàng shì kàn dé àn àn zé shé ， bǎi cǎo mén rú jīn rì jiàn shuāi luò ， dà bù fèn yòng dù ， dōu shì zhǐ wàng nà xiǎo xiǎo de yào yuán ， kě líng yào chéng shú ， bú shì yī tiān liǎng tiān ， mén pài lǐ ” hái yǒu nà me duō tóng mén ， rén rén xiū liàn dōu xū yào xiāo hào zī yuán ， tā liǎ suī rán shì zhǎng mén zhī nǚ ， yě dé bú dào shén me tè shū zhào gù ， yī kuài jīng shí ” hèn bù néng néng bāi chéng liǎng bàn lái huā de 。
上官姐妹同样是看得暗暗咋舌，百草门如今日渐衰落，大部分用度，都是指望那小小的药园，可灵药成熟，不是一天两天，门派里”还有那么多同门，人人修炼都需要消耗资源，她俩虽然是掌门之女，也得不到什么特殊照顾，一块晶石”恨不能能掰成两半来huā的。
As they walked through the stalls, there were countless shops and a myriad of spiritual artifacts. However, Lin Xuan's discernment was unparalleled. He would only send his disciples items of the highest quality.
xiàng lín xuān zhè yàng huī jīn rú tǔ ， jiě mèi liǎ shì zuò mèng yě méi yǒu xiǎng guò ， kàn dé yǎn jīng dèng dé dà dà de ， bù guò xīn téng guī xīn téng ” shàng xià zūn bēi hái shì dǒng ” bù gǎn suí yì hú shuō ， zhǐ zé shī fù làng fèi tài guò 。
像林轩这样挥金如土，姐妹俩是做梦也没有想过，看得眼睛瞪得大大的，不过心疼归心疼”上下尊卑还是懂”不敢随意胡说，指责师傅浪费太过。
After some time, a magnificent pavilion caught their attention.
gāo jiē xiū xiān zhě ， nán dào dōu shì rú cǐ yǒu qián me ？
高阶修仙者，难道都是如此有钱么？
Most of the stalls here were simple, but this elegant pavilion stood out.
zhè ge wèn tí liǎng jiě mèi cóng wèi sī suǒ ， bù guò shǒu tóu kuān yù shì shéi dōu xiàng wǎng de ， tā men yǐ àn xià jué xīn ， yǐ hòu yí dìng nǔ lì xiū liàn ” xī wàng yě yǒu néng xiàng shī fù zhè me fēng guāng de yī tiān 。
这个问题两姐妹从未思索，不过手头宽裕是谁都向往的，她们已暗下决心，以后一定努力修炼”希望也有能像师傅这么风光的一天。
"Thousand-Weapon Pavilion!"
cǐ xíng de mù dì yǐ jīng dá chéng ， bù guò lín xuān bìng bù zhǔn bèi mǎ shàng huí qù ， fǎn zhèng zhè jí shì kàn shàng qù suī rán rè nào yǐ jí ， dàn qí shí què jǐn yǒu yī tiān ér yǐ 。
此行的目的已经达成，不过林轩并不准备马上回去，反正这集市看上去虽然热闹以极，但其实却仅有一天而已。
Lin Xuan walked in without hesitation with his two disciples.
lái dōu lái le ， nà jiù duō guàng guàng ， míng tiān huí qù ， yě bù suàn wǎn 。
来都来了，那就多逛逛，明天回去，也不算晚。
"Senior, is there anything I can help you?" asked a young man dressed in blue.
hé kuàng lín xuān hái zhǔn bèi mǎi jǐ jiàn hǎo de líng qì ， tā yāo jiān de chǔ wù dài lǐ ， fǎ bǎo gù rán yǒu bù shǎo ， kě liǎng gè tú ér xiū wèi tài dī ， yī shí piàn kè ， gēn běn jiù yòng bù shàng 。
何况林轩还准备买几件好的灵器，他腰间的储物袋里，法宝固然有不少，可两个徒儿修为太低，一时片刻，根本就用不上。
"I want the best spiritual artifact."
yī lù qǐ lái ， diàn pù gù rán jí duō ， líng qì yě shì qiān qí bǎi guài ， rán ér lín xuān de yǎn jiè fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yào sòng tú ér dāng rán jiù sòng hǎo de 。
一路起来，店铺固然极多，灵器也是千奇百怪，然而林轩的眼界非同小可，要送徒儿当然就送好的。
"Spiritual artifact?"
pái huái qí jiān ， dào yě bìng méi yǒu fā xiàn lìng tā gǎn xìng qù zhī wù ， tū rán ， yī dòng gé lóu chū xiàn zài yǎn lián lǐ 。
徘徊其间，倒也并没有发现令他感兴趣之物，突然，一栋阁楼出现在眼帘里。
The young man was taken aback. Although he couldn't determine Lin Xuan's exact cultivation stage, it was clear that he was above the Condensation Core stage. Asking for a spiritual artifact seemed strange.
zhè lǐ de tān diǎn ， dà duō jiǎn lòu ， zhè me yī dòng měi lún měi huàn de gé lóu ， zì rán shí fēn de yǐn rén zhǔ mù 。
这里的摊点，大多简陋，这么一栋美轮美奂的阁楼，自然十分的引人瞩目。
However, upon seeing two young women behind Lin Xuan with their heads bowed, his expression changed to one of understanding.
“ bǎi bīng lóu ！”
“百兵楼！”
"Please follow me upstairs. I will fetch what you need."
lín xuān háo bù chí yí ， dài zhe liǎng gè tú ér zǒu le jìn qù 。
林轩毫不迟疑，带着两个徒儿走了进去。
"Remember, only the best."
“ qián bèi ， bù zhī dào yǒu shén me kě yǐ bāng nǐ ？”， shàng lái yī qīng yī xiǎo mào de huǒ jì 。
“前辈，不知道有什么可以帮你？”，上来一青衣小帽的伙计。
Lin Xuan instructed and led his disciples up the stairs. After a short while, the young man quickly brought out the spiritual artifacts. He removed the red cloth with great enthusiasm, but Lin Xuan was unimpressed.
“ wǒ yào zuì hǎo de líng qì 。”
“我要最好的灵器。”
The tray held a sword and a shield. To an ordinary person, these might be decent treasures, but to Lin Xuan, they were merely mediocre.
“ líng qì ？”
“灵器？”
"Senior is not interested?"
nà huǒ jì yī dāi ， lín xuān de jù tǐ jìng jiè tā suī rán kàn bù chū lái ， dàn xiǎn rán shì níng dān qī yǐ shàng de xiǎng xiàng zhōng ， yào líng qì ， zhè bú shì tài qí guài le 。
那伙计一呆，林轩的具体境界他虽然看不出来，但显然是凝丹期以上的想象中，要灵器，这不是太奇怪了。
"Not at all. I'll look elsewhere," Lin Xuan said disappointedly.
bù guò suí hòu ， yòu fā xiàn lín xuān shēn hòu ， zhàn zhe liǎng wèi dī méi shùn mù dì shào nǚ ， jiē míng yàn yǐ jí ， liǎn shàng bù yóu de lù chū liǎo liǎo rán zhī yì 。
不过随后，又发现林轩身后，站着两位低眉顺目的少女，皆明艳以极，脸上不由得露出了了然之意。
Shangguan Yan remained silent, while Shangguan Ling swallowed her saliva. The sisters understood that their master was buying for them, but these spiritual artifacts seemed already good enough.
“ hǎo ， qǐng qián bèi qù lóu shàng shāo dài ， wǎn bèi zhè jiù qǔ lái 。”
“好，请前辈去楼上稍待，晚辈这就取来。”
They did not dare to speak out of turn.
“ jì zhù ， yào zuì hǎo de 。”
“记住，要最好的。”
Seeing Lin Xuan stand up, a voice interrupted: "Senior really wants the best spiritual artifact?"
lín xuān dīng zhǔ le yī jù ， jiù dài zhe liǎng gè tú dì ， shùn zhe lóu tī ， xiàng èr lóu zǒu qù 。
林轩叮嘱了一句，就带着两个徒弟，顺着楼梯，像二楼走去。
Lin Xuan looked up and saw a middle-aged cultivator in gray robes. He appeared around fifty years old, with a cultivation stage at mid-Condensation Core.
méi děng duō jiǔ ， nà huǒ jì dòng zuò hěn kuài ， cái xiǎo bàn zhǎn chá de shí jiān ， jiù jiāng líng qì qǔ le lái 。
没等多久，那伙计动作很快，才小半盏茶的时间，就将灵器取了来。
"Of course not. Are you here for sightseeing?" Lin Xuan replied coldly.
xiàn bǎo shì de jiāng tuō pán shàng de hóng bù jiē kāi ， kě xī lín xuān yī kàn ， què xìng qù suǒ rán 。
献宝似的将托盘上的红布揭开，可惜林轩一看，却兴趣索然。
"Fine spiritual artifacts are available here. However, the price is exorbitant, even surpassing ancient treasures. Would Senior still be interested?" The young man's words surprised the other customers upstairs. It was common knowledge that spiritual artifacts were valuable, but they could never match the power of a treasure. This price made no sense.
pán zhōng fàng zhe yī dāo yī jiàn ，， hái yǒu yí gè dùn pái ， zài pǔ tōng rén yǎn lǐ ， huò xǔ suàn bù cuò de bǎo wù ， kě zài zì jǐ yǎn zhōng ， què míng xiǎn shǔ yú jī lèi bān de dōng xī 。
盘中放着一刀一剑，，还有一个盾牌，在普通人眼里，或许算不错的宝物，可在自己眼中，却明显属于鸡肋般的东西。
Was he trying to make them feel like fools?
“ qián bèi bù gǎn xìng qù ？”
“前辈不感兴趣？”
But Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead and seemed contemplative: "You must have something special if you can offer such a high price."
“ bù cuò ， lín mǒu hái shì qù bié chù kàn kàn hǎo le 。”， lín xuān lüè gǎn shī wàng de shuō 。
“不错，林某还是去别处看看好了。”，林轩略感失望的说。
"You're mistaken. The spiritual artifacts are not crafted by us but obtained from ancient cultivators' ruins," the young man explained.
shàng guān yàn méi yǒu kāi kǒu ， shàng guān líng què qiǎo rán tūn le yī kǒu tuò mò ， liǎng jiě mèi bīng xuě cōng míng ， dāng rán cāi dào shī fù shì zài wèi zì jǐ mǎi dōng xī ， kě zhè xiē líng qì ， míng míng yǐ jīng hěn hǎo le 。
上官雁没有开口，上官翎却悄然吞了一口唾沫，两姐妹冰雪聪明，当然猜到师傅是在为自己买东西，可这些灵器，明明已经很好了。
"Oh, then please show me what you have. If it's good enough, I won't mind the price. I will definitely make you satisfied," Lin Xuan said as he sat down again.
dāng rán ， tā men shì bù gǎn hú luàn chā kǒu de 。
当然，她们是不敢胡乱插口的。
Soon, the young man brought out the spiritual artifact in a silk box.
yǎn kàn lín xuān yǐ rán zhàn qǐ ， zhè shí yí gè shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ qián bèi kě shì zhēn yào mǎi hǎo de líng qì ？”
眼看林轩已然站起，这时一个声音传入耳朵：“前辈可是真要买好的灵器？”
"Appearance can enhance value."
lín xuān tái qǐ tóu lú ， zhǐ jiàn shì yī shēn chuān huī yī de xiū xiān zhě ， dà yuē wǔ shí chū tóu ， jìng jiè zài níng dān zhōng qī zuǒ yòu 。
林轩抬起头颅，只见是一身穿灰衣的修仙者，大约五十出头，境界在凝丹中期左右。
Lin Xuan opened the box with his sleeve. He was surprised to see a pair of wings, gleaming silver and emitting cold metallic light, but their material was unknown.
“ bù cuò ， nán dào hái shì lái yóu shān wán shuǐ de 。”， lín xuān lěng lěng de shuō 。
“不错，难道还是来游山玩水的。”，林轩冷冷的说。
Lin Xuan's expression turned serious. His intuition told him this was a good item.
“ hǎo líng qì ， běn diàn zì rán shì yǒu de ， bù guò jià gé jí wéi kě bù ， shèn zhì chāo guò le dǐng jiē gǔ bǎo ， rú cǐ …… qián bèi kě hái yǒu xìng qù ？”， èr lóu chú le lín xuān ， hái yǒu bié de kè rén ， tīng le zhè huà ， dōu shì yī zhèn jīng chà ， zhòng suǒ zhōu zhī ， líng qì jiù shì líng qì ， zài hǎo de líng qì ， yě méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ fǎ bǎo xiāng bǐ ， zhè jià gé zì rán yě shì yī yàng de dào lǐ 。
“好灵器，本店自然是有的，不过价格极为可怖，甚至超过了顶阶古宝，如此……前辈可还有兴趣？”，二楼除了林轩，还有别的客人，听了这话，都是一阵惊诧，众所周知，灵器就是灵器，再好的灵器，也没有办法与法宝相比，这价格自然也是一样的道理。
Seeing a valuable treasure, Lin Xuan picked it up and gently tapped it. A clear sound echoed in his ears. He then infused mana into the shield, which glowed with blue lightning arcs.
bǐ pǔ tōng gǔ bǎo hái guì ， yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò ， dāng gù kè shì yuān dà tóu me ？
比普通古宝还贵，有没有搞错，当顾客是冤大头么？
It was a Lightning attribute artifact, not just a support tool. With a wave of his hand, he summoned this wing-shaped spiritual artifact.
bù guò lín xuān què yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， yǎn zhōng shǎn guò ruò yǒu suǒ sī zhī sè ：“ gǎn kāi chū rú cǐ gāo de jià gé ， xiǎng bì guì diàn de líng qì shì bié yǒu tè sè 。”
不过林轩却以手抚额，眼中闪过若有所思之色：“敢开出如此高的价格，想必贵店的灵器是别有特色。”
With a loud rumble, it grew larger and appeared behind Shangguan Yan's body. The wings were enormous, nearly enveloping her entire figure.
“ qián bèi zhè què nòng cuò le ， líng qì bìng bú shì wǒ men dǎ zhì ， ér shì cóng gǔ xiū shì yí jì zhōng suǒ de 。”
“前辈这却弄错了，灵器并不是我们打制，而是从古修士遗迹中所得。”
"Yan'er, try out the power of this treasure."
“ ó ， nà hái qǐng dào yǒu ná lái yī guān ， zhǐ yào dōng xī hǎo ， jià gé bú shì wèn tí ， lín mǒu yí dìng ràng nǐ mǎn yì 。”
“哦，那还请道友拿来一观，只要东西好，价格不是问题，林某一定让你满意。”
Following her master's instruction, Shangguan Yan took a deep breath and infused all her mana into her body. She then flapped her wings, sending countless light waves in feather shapes.
lín xuān yī biān shuō ， yī biān yòu zuò le huí qù ， hěn kuài ， duì fāng jiù pěng lái le tā xiǎng yào de líng qì ， què shì zhuāng zài yí gè jǐn hé lǐ 。
林轩一边说，一边又坐了回去，很快，对方就捧来了他想要的灵器，却是装在一个锦盒里。
The power was insignificant to Lin Xuan but terrifying for low-ranking cultivators. Even Foundation Establishment中期 cultivators might be instantly killed if they couldn't dodge it.
rén kào yī zhuāng ， fú kào jīn zhuāng ， hǎo de bāo zhuāng ， kě yǐ tí gāo wù pǐn de jià zhí ， zhè ge dào lǐ ， fán rén qīng chǔ ， xiū xiān zhě yòu zěn me huì bù xiǎo de 。
人靠衣装，佛靠金装，好的包装，可以提高物品的价值，这个道理，凡人清楚，修仙者又怎么会不晓得。
Lin Xuan waved his sleeve and a green glow dissipated the attack.
bù guò zhè yàng de gù nòng xuán xū ， lín xuān què bù zài yì ” xiù páo yī fú ， guāng xiá juǎn guò ” zhí jiē jiāng hé zi dǎ kāi le 。
不过这样的故弄玄虚，林轩却不在意”袖袍一拂，光霞卷过”直接将盒子打开了。
After all, this was a store; he could not damage others' possessions.
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
Although Lin Xuan remained calm on the surface, he was greatly surprised inside. This spiritual artifact had formidable power. Yan'er, at the灵动 stage, could easily challenge cultivators two ranks higher with its aid and even kill them instantly!
Their expressions, however, fell into the eyes of those who were observant.
"Pay your respects to the senior at two in the afternoon."
Suddenly, a voice entered his ears. Lin Xuan turned around and saw a tall and slender cultivator. His strength was negligible compared to his two disciples, just barely entering the Foundation Establishment stage.
But he had an astute demeanor.
"Is there something you need?" Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, speaking with indifference. Although he concealed his true power, it seemed that he would never have anything to do with a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator.
"The senior should not be angry. I naturally wouldn't harbor any ill intentions. I came here to help solve your problem," the man said, smiling.
"Your problem?"
"You're right. Allow me to speak frankly. The senior must be new to our Great Vast Sea region and is coming for the first time to the Fish Market Island."
"So what?" Lin Xuan replied coldly.
"Haha, since you are a newcomer here, facing thousands of stalls, it's bound to feel somewhat uncomfortable. Even if you want to buy something, where do you start? Might I have said anything wrong?" Niu Er grinned as he spoke.
"Oh, so you have some solution?"
The phrase 'hearing the strings and knowing the melody' came to mind for Lin Xuan. After hearing all that the man had said, how could he not understand his intentions? If he remained clueless now, after all these years of cultivation, would it be worth it?
"Of course. Just bring me the best."
Niu Er was efficient and arrived at the inn after an hour or so: "Senior, I've already contacted the seller. All that's left is for you to go over there. As long as both parties are satisfied, we can make the transaction immediately."
Lin Xuan was delighted and paid up right away.
Within a single meal, the transaction was completed. The quality of the Purple Lightning Grass was excellent, and the quantity was sufficient. The only drawback was that the price was slightly higher than expected.
But Lin Xuan had gone through many trials and tribulations, becoming rich beyond measure. A few crystals were nothing to him. He agreed with Niu Er on the spot, making a successful deal.
As for Niu Er, who had facilitated this transaction, Lin Xuan did not neglect his efforts. He casually tossed a small bag of crystals at the boy, rendering him speechless and grateful as he bid farewell to Lin Xuan, the god of wealth.
The sisters from Shangguan were equally impressed. The Herb School was now in decline, relying heavily on their tiny herb garden for resources. However, it took days for the herbs to mature, and there were so many fellow cultivators within the sect, each requiring resources for cultivation. Even though they were the daughters of the sect's leader, they received no special treatment. A single crystal was a luxury they could only dream of splitting in half.
Lin Xuan's lavish spending left the sisters wide-eyed with admiration. Although they felt heartache at his extravagance, they understood the hierarchical respect and did not dare to criticize him for wasting resources.
Could all high-ranking cultivators be so wealthy?
This question never crossed their minds, but having a comfortable life was something both desired. They resolved to work hard in cultivation and hoped one day to achieve such prosperity.
Having achieved his goal, Lin Xuan had no intention of returning immediately. The market seemed bustling, but it only lasted for a single day.
With nothing else to do, he decided to explore more. He wouldn't mind going back the next day.
Moreover, Lin Xuan planned to buy several high-grade灵器 (spiritual artifacts). While his storage bag contained many treasures, his two disciples' low cultivation levels meant they could not use them for now.
As they walked through the stalls, there were countless shops and a myriad of spiritual artifacts. However, Lin Xuan's discernment was unparalleled. He would only send his disciples items of the highest quality.
After some time, a magnificent pavilion caught their attention.
Most of the stalls here were simple, but this elegant pavilion stood out.
"Thousand-Weapon Pavilion!"
Lin Xuan walked in without hesitation with his two disciples.
"Senior, is there anything I can help you?" asked a young man dressed in blue.
"I want the best spiritual artifact."
"Spiritual artifact?"
The young man was taken aback. Although he couldn't determine Lin Xuan's exact cultivation stage, it was clear that he was above the Condensation Core stage. Asking for a spiritual artifact seemed strange.
However, upon seeing two young women behind Lin Xuan with their heads bowed, his expression changed to one of understanding.
"Please follow me upstairs. I will fetch what you need."
"Remember, only the best."
Lin Xuan instructed and led his disciples up the stairs. After a short while, the young man quickly brought out the spiritual artifacts. He removed the red cloth with great enthusiasm, but Lin Xuan was unimpressed.
The tray held a sword and a shield. To an ordinary person, these might be decent treasures, but to Lin Xuan, they were merely mediocre.
"Senior is not interested?"
"Not at all. I'll look elsewhere," Lin Xuan said disappointedly.
Shangguan Yan remained silent, while Shangguan Ling swallowed her saliva. The sisters understood that their master was buying for them, but these spiritual artifacts seemed already good enough.
They did not dare to speak out of turn.
Seeing Lin Xuan stand up, a voice interrupted: "Senior really wants the best spiritual artifact?"
Lin Xuan looked up and saw a middle-aged cultivator in gray robes. He appeared around fifty years old, with a cultivation stage at mid-Condensation Core.
"Of course not. Are you here for sightseeing?" Lin Xuan replied coldly.
"Fine spiritual artifacts are available here. However, the price is exorbitant, even surpassing ancient treasures. Would Senior still be interested?" The young man's words surprised the other customers upstairs. It was common knowledge that spiritual artifacts were valuable, but they could never match the power of a treasure. This price made no sense.
Was he trying to make them feel like fools?
But Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead and seemed contemplative: "You must have something special if you can offer such a high price."
"You're mistaken. The spiritual artifacts are not crafted by us but obtained from ancient cultivators' ruins," the young man explained.
"Oh, then please show me what you have. If it's good enough, I won't mind the price. I will definitely make you satisfied," Lin Xuan said as he sat down again.
Soon, the young man brought out the spiritual artifact in a silk box.
"Appearance can enhance value."
Lin Xuan opened the box with his sleeve. He was surprised to see a pair of wings, gleaming silver and emitting cold metallic light, but their material was unknown.
Lin Xuan's expression turned serious. His intuition told him this was a good item.
Seeing a valuable treasure, Lin Xuan picked it up and gently tapped it. A clear sound echoed in his ears. He then infused mana into the shield, which glowed with blue lightning arcs.
It was a Lightning attribute artifact, not just a support tool. With a wave of his hand, he summoned this wing-shaped spiritual artifact.
With a loud rumble, it grew larger and appeared behind Shangguan Yan's body. The wings were enormous, nearly enveloping her entire figure.
"Yan'er, try out the power of this treasure."
Following her master's instruction, Shangguan Yan took a deep breath and infused all her mana into her body. She then flapped her wings, sending countless light waves in feather shapes.
The power was insignificant to Lin Xuan but terrifying for low-ranking cultivators. Even Foundation Establishment中期 cultivators might be instantly killed if they couldn't dodge it.
