153: Nascent Soul Stage

None of this mattered anymore!

The Golden Core Stage steward slowly went downstairs and arrived at the Vice-Leader's room on the 5th floor.

Originally, he had not intended to bother the Vice-Leader.

To consume two drops of golden marrow jade milk all by himself!

But now, he no longer had the heart for that.

For one thing, he couldn't get that many Spirit Stones, and for another, if he were discovered, he wouldn't even have his life to spend them!

Fortunately, the two Vice-Leaders were also Golden Core Stage Cultivators.

However, they came from good backgrounds; the person living in the room right in front of him happened to be a Junior of the Leader.

Therefore, he had been promoted and brought along to guard the Nether Ghost Market.

The Golden Core Stage steward intended to drag him into this; he himself did not have the authority to mobilize so many Spirit Stones.

But the Vice-Leader did!

He could still drink some soup, more or less, even if it were discovered afterwards.

The Vice-Leader would be there to take the heat, and the Nascent Soul Stage Leader would also protect him.

The Golden Core Stage steward knocked on the door cheerfully: "Fellow Daoist Tong! Are you there?"

"I have something to discuss. I can't make up my mind for the moment, so I would like to ask for your advice!"

Finally, a thick-browed, large-eyed Cultivator opened the door.

"Steward Miao? What matter could make you unable to make up your mind?"

"Come, come in and sit!"

As he spoke, he ushered the Golden Core Stage Steward Miao into the room.

The two sat opposite each other, and the Golden Core Stage Steward Miao took the initiative to pick up the cup on the table and started to pour tea.

It was as if this were his own home, and the Vice-Leader watched everything before him without stopping him.

He just waited cheerfully for what would come next.

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao only spoke after pouring two cups of tea.

"Someone came today to sell ghost soul heart-locking grass, but they only brought an image talisman!"

"The other party wants to trade for 3 drops of golden marrow jade milk, but we don't have it in our warehouse, so we need to request stock from headquarters."

"And I have already reported this to the Leader!"

The Vice-Leader's hand holding the teacup suddenly paused: "Then why did you come over here?"

"Perhaps you sensed something was wrong?"

"Or is the other party selling fakes?"

"Or perhaps you've figured out the other party's background?"

With every sentence the Vice-Leader spoke, the Golden Core Stage Steward Miao shook his head imperceptibly.

Finally, he spoke directly: "It has nothing to do with any of those!"

"It's the other party; there is another way to trade."

"Trade two drops of golden marrow jade milk for a soul defense magical artifact, plus 1.8 million Spirit Stones!"

The Vice-Leader put away his smile and stared seriously at Steward Miao in front of him.

"Then why are you still applying for 3 drops of golden marrow jade milk?"

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something?

"Are you talking about us?"

Then, an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking about?

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao started to explain proactively: "The person who came to trade today is just a pawn!"

"He might not be the one to make the final decision; the specific result will have to wait until two days later."

"I'm saying, if we can save two drops of golden marrow jade milk, that would be good!"

"Fellow Daoist Tong, what do you think?"

"After all, there are many factions within the Treasure Pavilion!"

The Vice-Leader then understood the ins and outs of the matter and laughed heartily.

Then he patted Steward Miao's shoulder heavily: "Steward Miao, rest assured, this matter is on me!"

"Steward Miao, is there anything you desire?"

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao spoke cautiously: "Could you spare one drop for me?"

The Vice-Leader looked seriously into Steward Miao's eyes: "Then can Fellow Daoist Miao produce 1 million Spirit Stones?"

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao lowered his head unwillingly.

The Vice-Leader smiled slightly: "Then there's nothing to be done!"

"How about this! I'll take charge; after it's done, I'll give you 10 low-grade foundation establishment pills!"

"How does that sound to you?"

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao took a deep breath and nodded heavily.

The Vice-Leader patted Steward Miao's shoulder lightly, then went straight back to his seat, picked up the teacup, and took a gentle sip.

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao silently exited the room.

The Vice-Leader let out a chuckle; sitting at home, good things come from the sky.

He had accumulated another two drops of golden marrow jade milk; he believed that before long, the Family would have another Golden Core Cultivator.

What the two did not know was that the conversation just now had fallen into the ears of the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator on the top floor.

He had just been interrupted in his cultivation by the Golden Core Stage Steward Miao.

So he had separated a sliver of Divine Sense to check the situation.

He just happened to see his Junior chatting with the other party.

So he casually paid attention to see how his Junior was performing.

As it turned out, it was not bad!

And so he let it be.

After all, he had no use for Golden Core Stage items.

If it were Nascent Soul Stage items, he might have paid attention!

Golden Core Stage items required struggle and effort, which was the business of the people below.

His own Lifespan was running low; he needed to seize the time to see if he could achieve a Breakthrough.

If he could not achieve a Breakthrough, then in the end, he would just be a pile of dry bones.

Then the entire 6th floor slowly fell silent.

Only a faint sound of breathing came from the prayer mat in the very center.

An old man in white robes sat on the prayer mat.

His expression was kind, and he looked somewhat similar to the Vice-Leader below between the brows.

The hair on his head had all fallen out, and his whole head was shiny and bright, with only a few scattered white hairs attached to it.

Two eyebrows like two white waterfalls were separated on both sides.

The beard on his mouth hung down to three inches.

There was white fuzz on his entire face and chest.

However, his skin had a hint of ruddiness.

Expensive incense was placed around the old man, which had the effect of calming the spirit and mind.

Gu Changan did not know that there was a Nascent Soul Cultivator guarding the 6th floor of the Treasure Pavilion.

He only judged that there was a high probability of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator behind the Nether Ghost Market.

Two days passed in a flash, and Gu Changan once again used the same trick to lure the True Disciple Ghost Without Way out of the Nether Ghost Market.

The fake "True Disciple Ghost Without Way" was online again.

Gu Changan entered the Nether Ghost Market step by step from the outside.

Even if a powerful expert performed time regression, they would find that he had come in from the outside.

Gu Changan went straight to the Treasure Pavilion.

Before he even entered the door, he discovered that the Golden Core Stage Steward Miao was already guarding the hall.

Seeing Gu Changan enter, he immediately stood up to greet him!

"Little Friend! Have you brought the item?"

At this moment, another Divine Sense probed down from upstairs.

It swept back and forth over Gu Changan's body.

Gu Changan suppressed the anger in his heart: "I want to see the item for exchange!"

"Only then can I tell you!"

"Otherwise, I will not say it!"

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao still had some concerns; the other party hadn't even taken out the item, yet he asked him to take his out first!

Gu Changan reminded him: "The item is in your hands; I am just taking a look!"

"Besides, do I have the ability to rob your Treasure Pavilion?"

The Golden Core Stage Steward Miao felt relieved instantly upon hearing this.

He thought the other party didn't have such ability, not to mention the Leader was guarding it!

Subsequently, he took out a porcelain bottle, waiting for Gu Changan to inspect it.

Gu Changan opened the porcelain bottle, and a burst of pure energy entered his limbs and bones.
