215: Enemies meet on a narrow road

One final test remained!

Gu Changan detested this type of person.

It seemed this would be another tough battle!

After making up his mind, he steadied his footing.

He said in a deep voice, "If I am to exchange items, I wonder if Fellow Daoist can make the decisions?"

Gu Changan's words truly infuriated the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper.

He had clearly seen Gu Changan's hesitation when he first entered.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper had sharp eyes; what kind of person hadn't he seen before?

Was it possible that he looked down on his status?

A flash of disgust crossed the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper's eyes, but he still stood up and bowed.

With a smile, he said, "Fellow Daoist, you jest!"

"I am the shopkeeper of the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion!"

"Is there any matter that I cannot decide?"

"As long as the item Fellow Daoist is trading is a Golden Core Stage item!"

"Just come to me!"

After saying this, he clasped his hands behind his back, waiting for Gu Changan's next words.

He wanted to see what kind of treasure Gu Changan could produce.

If the item wasn't good, he wouldn't blame himself for ruthlessly driving down the price!

Gu Changan took note of the other party's reaction!

Gu Changan was currently putting on an appearance of being fearless.

"Oh? Really?"

He casually took out a Storage Pouch, which contained the main ingredients for three sets of core formation pills.

Then he carelessly tossed it onto the other party's table.

Seeing such carelessness, the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper merely reached out one hand to pick it up.

He swept his Divine Sense inside: three bottles and six boxes.

Could there be any good items in there?

He picked up a jade bottle, opened the stopper, and a unique Spiritual Qi rushed towards him.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper hurriedly covered the bottle, his pupils constricting.

This actually contained golden marrow jade milk, and it was just casually placed in a Storage Pouch?

Could it be that all three bottles were this?

He then opened and inspected them one by one!

Just as he was about to open the specially made wooden box that had been sealed.

Gu Changan reached out to stop him: "Fellow Daoist, you intend to look at it right here?"

After saying this, he glanced around!

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper immediately understood and lowered his posture.

A fawning smile spread across his face: "This way, Fellow Daoist!"

As he spoke, he led Gu Changan to the back compartment, then turned his head to look at the Maidservant at the stairs.

"Tea!"

The Foundation Establishment Stage Maidservant immediately trotted off to prepare it.

Gu Changan walked in front; he was familiar with this routine!

He had already experienced it once before!

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper sat in the main seat and hurriedly took out the special wooden box to begin the inspection.

He saw an egg-sized red fruit with downy hair like dragon scales.

Furthermore, faint flames were burning on it.

As he moved his palm slightly closer, there was a trace of scorching heat.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper panted heavily: "crimson flame dragon marrow fruit!"

He was familiar with this item!

After all, he had traded one away before!

He then picked up another wooden box and, after opening the Seal.

Inside was a sealed Spirit Medicine with three crystal-clear heart-shaped leaves.

The center of the entire Spirit Medicine was covered with a faint white mist.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper's eyes widened: "ghost soul heart-locking grass!"

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper refused to give up and opened all the jade boxes.

After checking, he used his own methods to reseal them all.

He was afraid of leaking even the slightest bit of Spiritual Qi.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper sat behind the table and began to calm his mood.

But his breathing just wouldn't calm down.

His eyes scanned back and forth between the wooden boxes.

He wished he could make these items his own!

Gu Changan sat on the side without speaking, just quietly watching the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper adjusted his breathing while closing his eyes to think.

How to secure these items!

Gu Changan tapped the table: "Fellow Daoist, have you seen enough?"

"Can you make the decision regarding these items?"

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper immediately stood up, bowed, and saluted: "It was I who was blind!"

"I did not expect Fellow Daoist to have such substantial wealth!"

"Could you tell me the purpose of your visit this time?"

Gu Changan leaned back: "What else could it be?"

"Exchanging for a core formation pill!"

"Three sets of core formation pill main ingredients for one core formation pill!"

"Is there anything to discuss about this?"

"Just tell me if you can make the decision!"

Gu Changan's expression began to show some impatience!

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper couldn't quite figure out Gu Changan's background.

He was likely a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, but he knew nothing about his Family background.

Since he produced three sets of core formation pill main ingredients right away, such a Family must be backed by a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to come and trade so blatantly!

However, what did this mean?

Weren't core formation pills usually prepared by the Family?

What was his purpose in doing this?

Gu Changan urged him repeatedly: "Hurry up, are you trading or not?"

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper asked with a smile: "Aren't core formation pills always prepared by the Family?"

"Why do you have to come out and exchange for it yourself, Fellow Daoist?"

Gu Changan's eyes were cold: "Why do you have so much to say?"

"Am I exchanging for myself?"

"I am doing it for my son."

"Why are you asking so much?"

"Just tell me if you are trading or not!"

"Three sets of main ingredients for one core formation pill!"

"You won't lose out!"

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper immediately grasped the key point: his son?

The Cultivator before him wanted to prepare a core formation pill for his son?

Could it be that his talent was poor?

Or some other reason?

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper immediately started brainstorming.

However, with three sets of main ingredients, given the level of the Treasure Pavilion's Alchemist.

The success rate was about 40%, and three sets of main ingredients could surely refine one batch.

This was a profitable business!

If luck was good, he could get three batches!

It was just adding a few auxiliary ingredients!

The most important things for a core formation pill were these three main ingredients!

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper spoke softly, preparing to drive the price down again.

Who knew, Gu Changan reacted as if he had been provoked.

"Still asking questions?"

"You're not trading, right?"

"If you don't trade, others will!"

"Give me back my treasure!"

As he spoke, he prepared to grab the Storage Pouch on the table and take these treasures away.

In fact, Gu Changan was just putting on an act.

Otherwise, the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper could blather on for a long time here.

He would start his usual demeaning rhetoric again!

And in the end, he would still have to throw in something extra.

The Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper was quick-witted and hurriedly grabbed Gu Changan's hand.

"Trade! Trade!"

"Fellow Daoist, don't be in such a rush!"

Gu Changan was a bit angry, his eyes staring: "I'm not in a rush?"

"When I entered, I asked if you could make decisions?"

"You said yes!"

"Then you spent half a day looking at it here!"

"I asked if you could trade, and you didn't give a straight answer!"

"Are you running a business, or just watching the fun?"

Seeing Gu Changan's arrogant attitude, the Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper hurriedly placated him.

"Fellow Daoist, it is my fault!"

"Was I just surprised just now!"

"I didn't recover for a moment!"

"We can trade!"

"However, Fellow Daoist, you will have to wait a little bit!"

"One is to apply to the higher-ups, and the other is that the core formation pill needs to be retrieved from the treasury!"

"This will also take some time!"

"Please wait a moment, Fellow Daoist!"
