Chapter Thirty-One: The More Brutal Qin Hao
In a short moment, more than ten people had passed by the fat man's side, buying a first-class demon beast crystal at a high price, which was not considered expensive. At the same time, seven or eight people were in a state of watching and waiting.
The obviously flustered yet resolute appearance of that fatty has aroused a lot of people's sympathy.
Can't help but admit, the fat guy's expression is indeed very confusing, round face, wide eyes revealing a strong sense of determination, making him look even more stupid and resolute.
In Qin Hao's eyes, however, the fat man's deception was obvious.
One of the reasons was that although the fat man's wounds seemed numerous, they were actually quite shallow. Some of the wounds were not even visible to the naked eye, but Qin Hao, who had seen his fair share, could understand that they were fabricated using the juice of some special fruits. Because Qin Hao had come into contact with many strange spiritual medicines before and had a certain understanding of their effects, the fat man's disguise was naturally useless in front of him.
The second reason was Qin Hao's intuition. As a martial artist, he had a sense of intuition that allowed him to judge the strength of others' aura. The fat man seemed to be seriously injured, but his breathing was extremely stable and his aura was also very stable. Could someone who was truly severely injured maintain this state? Moreover, in this area where there were demonic beasts, there was only one Blue Silent Forest, and most of the demonic beasts within it were low-level ones, so how could they have injured someone to such an extent?
But most importantly, it's because this fat guy knows Qin Hao, and Qin Hao is more than just familiar with this fat guy.
"This kung fu is called 'Bi Chao Jue', it can help you break through your shackles."
"You're not a total waste yet, but if you fail, you'll become a complete waste."
These words were from his past life, which the fat man told him about. In his past life, he left the Qin family due to a mistake in his cultivation method and didn't want to be protected by others, so he wandered outside for ten years. For two years, he drifted to a desolate place. By coincidence, he saved that dead fat man once and had a deep relationship with him.
The Blue Wave Trick
Qin Hao thought of this trick at the time, and his face hidden under the mask also revealed a hint of a smile.
If it wasn't for "Bi Chao Jue" in his past life, he wouldn't have been able to break free from the shackles on his body and catch a glimpse of the higher realm of martial arts. In any case, that fat man had given him quite a bit of help. And later, Qin Hao's experiences wandering around with the fat man were also unforgettable memories for him until now.
At this point, Qin Hao almost had an impulse to go over to Pangzi's side.
He quickly suppressed that thought again, and now the fat man didn't recognize him, he himself still had unresolved issues.
Qin Hao lowered his head, looking at the deserted Sealing Mystical Array under his feet, and suddenly felt a headache. If he didn't exchange for enough mystical crystals today to refine more Sealing Mystical Arrays, the injuries he suffered while cultivating "Shaking Heaven Palm" would be difficult to heal. The accumulated injuries of those guys from the Qin family who were hit by Long Mu every day were also very troublesome.
His eyes scanned the guys around him who were all showing off, and then glanced at the fat guy who was still pretending to be pitiful but trying to act tough. Qin Hao's mouth couldn't help but curve into a mocking arc.
"Those who have lived in a land of despair, strength is not just about martial skills."
His right palm was stretched out flat, with his five fingers spread apart. Suddenly, a small layer of crimson aura enveloped the center of his palm. The aura gradually expanded from the center of his palm and eventually dyed Qin Hao's entire palm a deep crimson color.
Mysticize! Condense the power of ten layers of mysticism!
Such a big movement quickly caught people's attention, and Qin Hao's action swiftly drew everyone's gaze over.
Ignoring the bewildered gazes of the crowd, Qin Hao let out a gentle breath and with his right palm, he made a swift slashing motion, directly slapping his left wrist under everyone's watchful eyes. The people around him could even hear the whistling sound of Qin Hao's hand slicing through the air.
The force and speed of that slap left many people aghast.
When his right hand slapped the left wrist, there was even a faint aura of light jumping and flashing, and then flying out. It can be imagined how great Qin Hao's strength was.
In less than a moment, Qin Hao's wrist had turned blue and swollen, giving people the most intuitive understanding of his strength just now.
Qin Hao remained silent and motionless, crouching down on one knee, his two fingers pinched together to hold a Sealing Mystical Array, as a stream of mystical energy poured into it.
Feng Xuan's crystal shell suddenly disintegrated, and the Feng Xuan array inside began to rotate. Qin Hao's palm extended into the energy body, and instantly a gentle and warm aura flowed into his wrist, then spread throughout his entire body. Meanwhile, the wound on his wrist healed at an extremely rapid rate...
When the demonic energy in the crystal was exhausted, the swelling on Qin Hao's palm had long since dissipated, leaving only a faint bruise.
When doing these actions, Qin Hao was done in one breath, and when pulling his own wrist, there was no hesitation or pause, the action looked extremely clean and neat.
Until Qin Hao's action was completed, the crowd around him stared at Qin Hao with wide eyes and slightly open mouths.
"A first-class peak sealing Xuan array, restoring Xuan energy, healing minor injuries to the muscles and bones. It has little effect on Ling Xuan Wu, but is effective against Ning Xuan Qiang."
As Qin Hao's deliberately lowered voice spread around, the onlookers were even more silent.
"So he's making such a big fuss just to show off the Xuanxuan Formation? Does he have to be so serious?" The man who had just sold the dagger was twitching at the corner of his eye and the corner of his mouth kept spasming.
"Isn't he afraid of hurting his hand and leaving behind an incurable disease?"
"It's been a long time since I've seen someone so ruthless... That slap was done without any hesitation."
"You say, is it necessary to be so desperate when selling something? Is this guy going to be too aggressive?"
The stall owner who had just slapped his partner's ear was now standing in front of the stall selling seven-leaf blue heart flowers, his mouth agape and his eyes gazing at his partner with a helpless expression.
His partner, the man who had just used his own face to verify the efficacy of the Blue Heart Flower, was also thoroughly stunned.
"How did I know? My evaluation of this person is just one word: awesome! This kid is really decisive!"
He was very clear that what he had just done, although seemingly similar to Qin Hao's, was fundamentally different. He used his face, and his accomplices controlled the force just right, only causing some superficial injuries to his face, while Qin Hao used his hands, with a much greater force.
A martial artist can't just rely on their face to make a living, if they suffer some minor damage to their appearance, it's tolerable for them. But if their hands and feet are injured, it will be very difficult for them to practice their skills in the future. So he was very clear about the difference between what he did and what Qin Hao did, and he knew that the onlookers were also aware of this.
That chubby guy who had a resolute face just a moment ago also dropped his jaw, and his originally round eyes widened even further. After a while, he finally regained his composure, but his mouth was still muttering to himself, saying something inaudible.
The tranquility didn't last long before a loud noise surged forth and people from all around gathered in front of Qin Hao's stall.
The Feng Xuan formation is already an invaluable object, let alone this special auxiliary type of Feng Xuan formation. What does it represent? They are very clear in their hearts.
Qin Hao walked to the stall before, neither fast nor slow, and lowered his voice: "These are all sealed Xuan arrays with the same effect as just now. I'm sure you're also very clear about the sealed Xuan array. If you're afraid that I'll use ordinary Xuan crystals to pretend, you can verify it yourself. Tiannan Fang also has instruments to help verify the quality of the sealed Xuan array. Only exchange water system demon beast Xuan crystals, the demon beast must be a first-class peak, if not possible, one or two high-grade ones are also acceptable, ten for one."
A warrior in magnificent attire and with a clear face walked forward and said to Qin Hao, "Four thousand gold coins for your five Feng Xuan arrays. What do you say?"
40,000 gold coins!
The people around him were shocked! It's common knowledge that the value of a first-class demon beast's crystal isn't too high, even if it comes from a top-notch first-class demon beast. The highest quality ones only fluctuate around 50 or so. According to Qin Hao's standards, five Sealing Crystals would be worth 2,500 at most. This guy raised the price by 500 in one go, looks like he really does have some wealth backing him up.
Qin Hao's eyes moved slightly, and then he said lightly: "Four thousand gold coins are indeed a lot."
The man's face lit up with joy and he said: "That..."
"Sorry, but today I can only trade for Xuanjing."
The smile on the man's face froze for a moment, but then returned to normal at an extremely fast speed. He smiled faintly and asked: "Four thousand gold coins are enough for the Xuanjing you need, right? You suddenly require so many first-class peak demon beasts' Xuanjing, and they must be water-based, which is indeed quite troublesome. If you accept my gold coins, you can slowly buy the Xuanjing you need later, wouldn't that be a win-win situation? Think about it."
Qin Hao shook his head and said, "No way, urgently need Xuanjing, no need to consider."
The man gritted his teeth and reluctantly walked away with a sullen expression.
When the man said he wanted to exchange for gold coins, there were also many people watching. Qin Hao's seal of Xuan array was indeed useful to them, but they found it difficult to gather the Xuan crystals Qin Hao needed in a short period of time, so their eyes did not leave Qin Hao's face, carefully observing Qin Hao's reaction.
Qin Hao's words caused a look of disappointment to spread across the faces of many people, but soon they dispersed and went their separate ways. The demon beasts' crystals were still being sold in this Tian Nan Fang, and some vendors were selling them too.
Some flexible people immediately surrounded the stall of Paozi, searching for it on his stall, and some lucky people actually found the demon beast Xuanjing needed by Qin Hao in Paozi's hands.
Soon, Qin Hao had taken out a large number of the Sealing Mysteries Arrays in his hand. By the time the plump man's spot was cleared of its mystic crystals, Qin Hao's hand only had three arrays left that shone with a faint blue light.
"Doesn't anyone want it?" Qin Hao asked in a slightly raised voice.
His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his expression was also somewhat helpless. Although he knew that the recent consumption of Xuanjing for making weapons, ornaments or sealing arrays had increased a lot, it was still surprising that he couldn't gather the amount he needed in the free trading area of Tian Nan Fang.
"These few things are somewhat interesting, so I'll take them."
A man in a green robe slowly emerged from the crowd. The man's face was handsome and his spirit was high-flying, with his long hair fluttering as he walked, making him look even more elegant. However, the expression on the man's face couldn't help but give people an arrogant and overbearing feeling.
Qin Hao's eyes flickered with a cold smile, but it was hidden behind his mask, and no one in the room noticed.
Qin Hao's eyes swept over the newcomer, and the smile at the corner of his mouth grew a few degrees colder.
He didn't expect that on the same day, he would beat Lin Bi to a pulp, but Lin Zhanbei was able to heal all of Lin Bi's injuries in a short amount of time, and it seemed like no hidden dangers were left behind.
"It's just Lin Zhanbei, but you still let Lin Bi come out and stir up trouble, then it can't be blamed on others."
Qin Hao sneered secretly.
The person who came was Lin Jia's second son, Lin Bi.
