Cultivation Pet Shop

When the clerk first cut into the stone, he saw that there was nothing special about it at all and he couldn't help revealing a faint smile.

He had seen how the two girls had acted and he was a bit doubtful, but now that he saw that this stone had nothing, he couldn't help finding it funny.

These two girls were nothing more than newbies that had been completely tricked by the stones they had put out. They acted like this rock was something special, but their eyes weren't that good.

He continued cutting deeper and deeper into the rock, but not seeing a single thing, the smile of disdain on his face became wider.

That was until he reached the center of this rock.

As soon as he cut into the center of the rock, the strange looking dust that came from the cutter made him knit his brows.

He didn't know exactly what this was, but he could tell that this dust was a sign that something not normal was inside of this ore. There was even a chance that there was a rare metal that was inside of this thing.

As this thought passed through his mind, he couldn't help being filled with regret over this.

He knew that even if it was a small piece, it would still be worth at least a hundred times what they paid for this piece of ore.

As he was cutting, his brain began turning before he said, "It doesn't seem like there is much in here, but it does seem like there's something there. In my professional opinion, this colour usually isn't a good sign since it's a sign of a normal chunk of metal."

After a pause, he revealed a difficult look and said, "However, I've been in a pinch since I've been in trouble with my wife. This colour is her favourite colour, so I'm sure that she would love something like this as a present."

He then turned to them with a kind smile and said, "How about I buy this off you for double what you paid?"

The way he said all of this, it made it seem like he was doing them a favour.

There wasn't a single thing off with his acting and if this was earth, Lin Fan was sure that he could contend for an Oscar.

But he wasn't fooled by this at all.

He knew that this was just a trick that the clerk was using to cheat them out of the ore. After all, he had noticed how the clerk had looked at the ore before he started talking.

It was clear that he recognized something valuable here, so he wanted to try to get the ore back without paying too much.

For most people, double the price was considered quite generous, but to Lin Fan, it meant that what was inside was very valuable if he didn't hesitate to start with double the price.

He didn't really care about this bit of money since it was just a hundred spirit stones. This was something that he could easily earn with his store or anything else that he did.

But he didn't want to see Xin'er being cheated like this.

It was the same for Angela who had put her hands over Xin'er as if she was protecting her.

However, before either of them could say a thing, Xin'er shook her head and said, "No, I want to see what's inside. It looks very interesting."

If this was before, the shy Xin'er might have just given the ore to this clerk since he was being quite friendly. However, after being with Angela and Lin Fan, her personality had changed a bit.

She had become smarter and she was able to say what she wanted.

Hearing this, the clerk revealed an ugly look which he quickly suppressed. He then said with a kind smile, "Little miss, you'd really be doing me a favour here. How about this, I'll give you three times as much."

Xin'er still shook her head and said, "I want to see what's inside."

The clerk started losing his patience when he heard this.

He had tried being kind to them since they were customers, but if they didn't take the drink offered to them…

The clerk looked at the counter and the person there gave a nod to show they understood. Then while the clerk kept Lin Fan's group distracted, the person at the counter sent a large man from the back over.

This large man's face and stature really made him look aggressive.

But before he could even come over, he suddenly felt a cold chill come over him.

At that moment, it was as if a thousand blades suddenly appeared in front of him. In an instant, there wasn't a single part of him that wasn't cut…

But then all of those cuts disappeared because it was nothing more than killing intent that had hit him head on.

The eyes of this large man rolled back in his head and then his body fell backwards, landing on the ground with a large "thud" sound.

There was only silence in the store as both the clerk and the person behind the counter stared at the large man on the ground in a daze.

Neither of them understood what had just happened, but they knew that this was beyond what they could handle.

So the clerk turned back to Xin'er and said with a smile, "Of course. This young miss, this belongs to you, naturally you can see what is inside."

Xin'er however was staring at the large man on the ground and she asked, "Uh, is there something wrong with him? Should we get some help for him?"

When she said this, all the clerk could hear was a threatening voice.

He was certain that this was related to her and now that she was asking him about it, her next target was most likely him.

So he put even more friendliness in his voice as he said, "He's just a little drunk and he fainted. We'll help him in the back, you don't have to worry about a thing."

Xin'er looked at the man on the ground with a doubtful look, but seeing that the people of the store were coming out to help him, she didn't ask anything else.

She turned her attention back to the ore and revealed an excited look as she said, "Hurry up and open it! I want to see what is inside!"

The clerk gave a quick nod and turned his attention to the ore that was being cut.

After he made sure that the cut was finished, he slowly opened up the ore that had been cut.

The moment that the two halves were separated, there was a strong burst of life energy that filled the store that caught everyone's attention. They all turned to look in the direction of the source of this life energy, including someone that had just come into the store with a few followers.

The clerk looked like he was about to cry, but had no tears when he saw this.

He knew for sure that this reaction meant that this wasn't a normal ore, but there was nothing that he could do about it now.

He didn't even know what had knocked out that large man, so he knew that there was no chance that he would be able to use force. As for using his words to trick this little girl, he had already seen how that turned out.

But that didn't mean that no one was going to do anything…

Lin Fan and Angela were both surprised by this sudden burst of life energy, so they both narrowed their eyes to look at the ore. It had been cut into two halves and the insides had been revealed, showing a green piece of jade right in the center.

After this jade had been revealed to the outside world, it started releasing waves of life energy. However, these waves were not as strong as the first wave that it had released when it had just been split open.

Still, these waves of life energy created a space that was filled with dense live energy that would allow one to cultivate much faster than normal.

So it was clear that this jade was a rare and precious item.

After a moment of silence, both Lin Fan and Angela muttered, "Heaven Spring Jade…"

Both of them looked at each other as if they were surprised that the other person knew the name of this jade, but then they both moved closer to Xin'er.

They knew just how valuable this jade was, so they knew that there were people who would do anything to get this jade. In this kind of situation, the first person that they would target was Xin'er who was the one that technically owned this jade.

But before anyone could say anything, there was a person that suddenly came forward with a large crowd.

He came up to the jade and leaned over to inspect it while saying, "Interesting, interesting. To think that there would be a Heaven Spring Jade in a place like this."

The clerk was scared of Xin'er, so naturally he came forward to say something. But before he could say a thing, he suddenly recognized who this person was and immediately swallowed his words.

This person was someone that he couldn't offend even if he had a hundred lives, a thousand lives, ten thousand lives.

This was the fourth prince of the Mu Stellar Kingdom.
