The Entry-plundering Demon Hunter

Chapter 253: Chapter 250: Black Gold Tiger Head Spear

Lin Yi turned to look at the person who spoke.

He was in his thirties and fairly handsome.

A faint smile played on his lips, giving him a refined and gentle appearance.

[Certified 3-star Martial Artist]

’With that level of Martial Arts talent, he’s just average in the New District, right?’

’After all, he’s already in his thirties. Even if he works at it his whole life...’

’...reaching 5-star would be considered pretty good for him.’

Lin Yi smiled and shook his head. "Sorry, this bird is not for sale."

Having said that, Lin Yi was about to turn and leave.

But the man had no intention of giving up. He quickly took two steps to catch up and continued, "How much do you want for it? I’ll pay whatever it takes. I really like this bird. How about you do me a favor and part with it?"

Faced with the man’s persistence, a flicker of anger appeared in Lin Yi’s eyes.

His tone turned cold. "Not for sale. Not for any price!"

"Brother, one million. How about I offer one million?"

Lin Yi ignored him and kept walking.

"Two million. That’s not a small sum for you, is it?"

Lin Yi: "..."

"Five million! I’ll pay five million, and the bird is mine!"

The man continued to chase after Lin Yi, raising the price to five million.

Finally, Lin Yi turned his head and glared at him.

"I’ll tell you one more time, this bird is not for sale, no matter the price. Do you understand?"

"If you keep following me, don’t blame me for what happens next!"

Hearing this, the man was not only unafraid, but he continued, "This is the New District. Any fighting will be forcefully suppressed by the Town Martial Department!"

"Unless you have a death wish, otherwise..."

Before the man could finish, Lin Yi looked at him as if he were deranged and cursed, "Dumbass."

Then he turned and walked away.

Anger flickered in the man’s eyes, and just as he was about to continue his pestering pursuit...

...several people quietly emerged from the crowd.

Two of them, one on his left and one on his right, reached out and grabbed his shoulders.

Before the man could ask who they were, one of them took out his credentials.

"Town Martial Department. Come on, let’s have a word in private."

The man’s expression was one of shock, and before he could react...

...a sharp pain shot through his shoulder, and he was hurriedly led away by the two Town Martial Department officers.

The others who had appeared also retreated, disappearing back into the crowd.

There were at least several hundred stalls on the first floor.

And the goods for sale were a dazzling array.

However, very few of them truly caught Lin Yi’s attention.

Whether it was pills or weapons...

...Lin Yi had no interest whatsoever, not even in the live demonic beasts.

However, Wei Nan, Sun Tao, and the others were quite curious about some of the Martial Arts techniques and weapons.

They even stopped at a few stalls, picking up a manual for a Martial Arts technique to look at it.

Lin Yi only needed a single glance to see that these so-called Martial Arts techniques weren’t even low-grade.

Some of the moves and cultivation methods inside...

...were completely unqualified to even be graded.

Some techniques were even just random adaptations based on fundamental fist and leg techniques.

The cultivation sequence was completely messed up.

’If someone actually bought a technique like this to practice, they’d suffer cultivation deviation sooner or later.’

"Boss, how much for this one?"

Wei Nan asked, holding a Martial Arts technique manual for the ’Fierce Fist Technique’.

Lin Yi almost couldn’t help but laugh just from seeing the name.

The owner, however, said calmly, "You can have that one for five thousand!"

"How much? Five thousand? Are you kidding me? This technique isn’t even graded, is it? Can you even practice with something that costs five thousand?"

Hearing this, the owner laughed too.

"Brother, you said it yourself, you can’t buy a graded Martial Arts technique for five thousand. Isn’t your question redundant?"

"If I were to really give you a graded one, even a low-grade technique, it would cost at least ten times more!"

"Besides, those are in high demand with no fixed price. Do you think it would be your turn to buy one?"

The owner’s frankness made even Lin Yi chuckle.

He patted Wei Nan’s shoulder. "Alright, the owner himself said you can’t buy graded techniques here. Let’s go and look elsewhere."

Wei Nan reluctantly tossed the manual back onto the stall.

He followed Lin Yi away, looking dejected.

"I just want to buy a fist and leg technique. My talent is strength, so it’s a good fit for me.

Why can’t I find even one?"

Wei Nan said, sounding frustrated.

Ever since his five-dimensional attributes were tested and his talent was confirmed...

...he’d been obsessed, constantly searching the library for fist and leg techniques and saber arts.

But finding one that suited him wasn’t so easy.

Right now, Wei Nan was looking like a desperate patient willing to try any doctor.

Lin Yi glanced at him. "You can’t rush some things. If you just practice randomly like this, you’ll end up crippling yourself sooner or later!"

"It’s a matter of fate, whether it’s a Cultivation Technique or a Martial Arts technique."

"These things all depend on fate. When we get back to school, I’ll recommend a few Martial Arts techniques to you. We’ll see if you can practice them."

A smile spread across Wei Nan’s face. "Really?"

"Don’t get your hopes up too soon. If you can practice them, that’s great. If not, don’t be anxious."

"Again, when it comes to Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts techniques, it’s mainly about fate!"

There were some things Lin Yi felt he needed to tell him and make clear beforehand.

The two of them had grown up together.

Lin Yi knew Wei Nan’s personality very well.

He was impatient; he’d always been this way.

Once he wanted to do something, he wanted it done immediately.

But something like practicing Martial Arts couldn’t be rushed—the same went for improving one’s realm or finding a suitable Cultivation Technique and Martial Arts technique.

When fate arrives, things will fall into place naturally. If fate hasn’t arrived...

...then one can only wait...

As for how long, Lin Yi didn’t know. Some people waited their entire lives.

The group had now all split up.

Lin Yi was with Wei Nan, while Zhou Qi was with Sun Tao and the others.

Qin Zhaoxue had taken Shen Mengyi off to who knows where.

But they had just agreed to meet in an hour.

They would gather at the main entrance of the convention hall.

So, Lin Yi wasn’t in a hurry. He led Wei Nan along, browsing as they walked.

Suddenly, Lin Yi’s brow furrowed.

His gaze shot toward a corner.

In that corner stood a row of weapon racks.

The racks were filled with sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, and forks—all sorts of weapons.

And an old man was sitting on a stool next to them.

He held a zisha teapot, taking a sip of tea from time to time.

Even though his stall had no customers...

...he didn’t seem anxious at all.

Instead, he watched the passing crowd with the air of a casual spectator...

"What is it?"

Wei Nan noticed something was different about Lin Yi and whispered a question.

"There’s a spear over there. I’m going to take a look!"

Lin Yi’s gaze was fixed on a black spear on the weapon rack.

The spear was pitch-black from end to end, made of some unknown material.

Lin Yi had only glanced at it, but he was immediately drawn to the spear.

He walked over to the weapon rack and examined the spear closely.

The old man sitting nearby took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Young man, looking to buy a spear?"

Lin Yi nodded. "Boss, what material is this spear made of?"

"Wujin. Forged from Celestial Wujin!"

"Wujin?"

He had never heard of this material.

But he truly liked this spear.

The old man said with a smile, "You must be students who just started college, right?"

"You probably don’t know what Wujin is!"

"Let me give you a simple introduction. Wujin is also called Cold Ice Profound Iron. It’s an extremely rare forging material. Only a Blacksmith of 7-star or higher can forge Wujin into a desired weapon!"

"The spear you’re looking at is called the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear. Its previous owner was incredible—a legendary figure known as the Spear Immortal, named Han Luojiang!"

"By the way, have you heard of Han Luojiang?"

The old man paused and asked.

Lin Yi and Wei Nan both shook their heads. "No."

"Alas, times have changed. No one even remembers the great Spear Immortal Han Luojiang anymore!"

"But that’s alright. You just need to know that the owner of this Black Gold Tiger Head Spear was the Spear Immortal!"

After the old man finished, Lin Yi chuckled and said, "So, is this spear for sale?"

"For sale? Of course, it’s for sale! Why else would I have it displayed here?"

"How much?"

"Bringing up money is so crass. Look at this convention. How many people are here? If not ten thousand, there must be at least three to five thousand, right?"

"But tonight, you are the first person to come and look at this Black Gold Tiger Head Spear!"

"What does that tell you? This is fate, working in mysterious ways, wouldn’t you agree? As the old saying goes, a divine weapon finds its divine master. That’s exactly what this is!"

"The fact that you’ve taken a liking to this Black Gold Tiger Head Spear proves you have an affinity with it. If it can choose you, then it has acknowledged you as its master. Therefore..."

"All this rambling nonsense... are you planning to give it away for free?" Wei Nan couldn’t listen anymore.

’If I let him keep spouting this crap, we’ll be here until tomorrow morning.’

The old man quickly shook his head. "How about this? Let’s not talk money, let’s talk yuan. You leave me three hundred thousand, and this Black Gold Tiger Head Spear is yours. What do you say?"

"What? Three hundred thousand? You’re a real swindler!"

"You spun such a long story and even made up some Spear Immortal Han Luojiang!"

"And in the end, you’re selling it for so much? That story of yours must be worth a fortune!"

"Let’s go, let’s go. We don’t want it. How could this spear be worth that much money?"

Wei Nan pulled Lin Yi, about to walk away.

Seeing this, the old man’s expression changed slightly.

’It took all day to get the first potential sale. How could I miss this opportunity?’

He quickly said, "This is business! I give you a price, and you can give me a counter-offer, right?"

"If you’re not happy with the price, make an offer. Let’s see if we can make a deal!"

Lin Yi nodded and glanced at the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear again.

"Ten thousand!"

"PFFT... What? Ten thousand? I offer it for three hundred thousand, and you offer me ten thousand?"

"Not selling, not selling! Go browse somewhere else!"

The old man waved his hand dismissively and sat right back down.

He struck a pose as if he wouldn’t sell it even if you beat him to death.

Seeing this, Wei Nan pulled Lin Yi to leave.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the old man grew anxious.

He quickly stood up and said, "Come back, you two, come back!"

"That price is honestly too low. How about adding a little more?"

"Thirty thousand. That’s the most!"

"Alright, deal!"

Lin Yi originally thought the old man would ask for another offer.

But the old man agreed with a nod, without a moment’s hesitation.

This time, both Lin Yi and Wei Nan were completely stunned.

A long moment later, as the old man walked over with the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear...

Wei Nan sighed softly. "We still paid too much..."
