My Master Knows It All

142: Chapter 118 The Good Disciple Who Fulfills the Wishes of Their Ancestors_6 142: Chapter 118 The Good Disciple Who Fulfills the Wishes of Their Ancestors_6 That fellow had no sense of shame at all; he deceived one after another, deceiving the Hundred Peaks Sect and other sects.

The entire cultivation world knew that there was such a shameless scammer.

In the past, that fellow obtained the relics of ancestors from the Divine Soldier Tomb and even ran directly to other people’s mountains, selling their ancestors’ Divine Weapons back to them.

If all these Divine Weapons ended up in Beichen Ying’s hands, buying them back would become a huge hassle.

Just now, they all forgot about these Divine Weapons because of Cao Zhen’s shamelessness.

Now that they had come to their senses, they started to sweet-talk one after another.

“Peak Master Cao might not be very familiar with Beichen Ying, his words cannot be trusted,” someone said.

“Peak Master Cao, Beichen Ying absolutely doesn’t have that many Spiritual Stones to buy your Divine Weapon,” another remarked.

These were the Divine Weapon relics of their Little Zen Peak’s ancestors and were the most suitable Divine Weapons for them.

Yuan Ci, seeing that no matter what everyone said, Cao Zhen remained unresponsive, slowly began to speak, “Peak Master Cao, making a gift of the Divine Weapon to our Little Zen Peak, this poor monk is deeply grateful.

Here’s a small token of appreciation; I hope Peak Master Cao will accept it.”

As he spoke, he directly took out a Spiritual Stone Ticket from his kasaya.

“How could I accept this?” Cao Zhen said, but he glanced at the number on the Spiritual Stone Ticket, a hundred thousand?

This old monk casually took out a hundred thousand Spiritual Stones, yet claimed they had no money, claimed that Little Zen Peak could not gather a million Spiritual Stones.

Whether Little Zen Peak could gather them or not, but don’t you have several tens of millions yourself?

Yuan Ci noticed Cao Zhen’s gaze and sneered internally.

If you don’t want it, then why look at the Spiritual Stone Ticket?

Aren’t you just eager to take it?

“Benefactor Cao, don’t be shy.

This can be considered a token of thanks for helping us recover the Divine Weapon and then gifting it to us,” Yuan Ci continued, pushing the Spiritual Stone Ticket into Cao Zhen’s hand.

“Peak Master is too kind, too kind.

Then I should take my leave,” Cao Zhen said, snatching the Spiritual Stone Ticket and tucking it directly into his bosom with nimble motions.

“Peak Master Cao, wait a moment.

Now that we have given you the token of thanks, shouldn’t you leave the rest of the Divine Weapons behind before you go?” someone called out.

“Leave behind the Divine Weapons?

What Divine Weapons?” Cao Zhen asked, puzzled.

“The token of thanks you just gave was not for that Vajra Pestle I gave you?

You want to take the remaining Divine Weapons for free?

That’s not like you, is it?”

Yuan Ci felt immense hatred, too shameless, far too shameless.

You clearly said you were giving us that Divine Weapon, but then you turned around and…

It seems, that hundred thousand…

I said it was a token of thanks, so, if pushed, Cao Zhen could still wriggle out of it.

This scoundrel, he had calculated all this from the start.

Yuan Ci cursed Cao Zhen’s shamelessness internally but couldn’t dare to show it openly on his face.

He still needed to recover the remaining Divine Weapons, so he could only continue, “How could it be?

How could I take Peak Master Cao’s treasures for free?

Look, we can give another token of thanks to Peak Master Cao.”

As he said this, he rummaged in his bosom and took out another Spiritual Stone Ticket worth a hundred thousand and pushed it into Cao Zhen’s hands.

Cao Zhen glanced at the Spiritual Stone Ticket and waved his hands repeatedly, “No need, no need, that’s not what I meant.”

“Peak Master Cao, there’s no need to be polite,” Yuan Ci continued to stuff the Spiritual Stone Tickets into his hands, all the while thinking it odd.

Didn’t you want the Spirit Stones?

Why aren’t you taking them now?

“No, no need, really, no need,” Cao Zhen even reached out with both hands to push Yuan Ci’s hands away, but his eyes kept darting to Yuan Ci’s chest, where the Spiritual Stone Tickets had just been taken from.

Yuan Ci noticed Cao Zhen’s gaze and immediately understood.

This guy, it’s not that he doesn’t want them; he’s dissatisfied with the number of Spirit Stones offered, this shameless fellow.

He glanced at the four Divine Weapons again, fell silent for a moment, then took out another Spiritual Stone Ticket worth one hundred thousand taels and handed it over to Cao Zhen.

“What are you doing, Peak Master Yuan Ci?

There’s no need for that, I already said no,” Cao Zhen scorned inwardly.

Such a small amount of Spirit Stones wouldn’t suffice to buy the remaining three treasures.

“Why stand on ceremony, Peak Master Cao?” Yuan Ci produced another Spiritual Stone Ticket worth one hundred thousand taels.

Cao Zhen’s eyes fixed greedily on Yuan Ci’s chest.

How many more Spiritual Stone Tickets could there possibly be inside?

People from the Upper Fifty Peaks are truly wealthy, hauling out Spiritual Stone Tickets in hundred-thousand-tael denominations.

Three hundred thousand taels for three Divine Weapons, that’s about right.

Ultimately, aside from the Clean Awareness Vajra Bracelet, which was a spatial class treasure that he could keep for his own use, Cao Zhen sold all four Divine Weapons to Little Zen Peak.

After making the purchase, he also took away one mu of Spirit Field, then headed towards Four Treasures Peak, calculating along the way.

Still short of money, still lacking money,

Even after obtaining four hundred thousand taels of Spirit Stones, he was far from the sum needed to craft pills.

Not to mention, these Spirit Stones didn’t even amount to one percent of the cost to refine a single Dragon and Tiger Golden Pill.

It’s all the fault of the master of Hidden Dragon Observatory.

Why did he have to interfere with my business?

If he hadn’t interfered, I could have gotten my hands on a few more Divine Weapons, could have earned more money.

Within Little Zen Peak, as Yuan Ci watched Cao Zhen’s departing figure, his chest heaved with indignation, feeling on the verge of madness, “Taking our Little Zen Peak’s Divine Weapons and selling them to us, his conduct is no different from that of BeiChen Ying!

And that one mu of Fourth-Grade Spirit Field!

No, this matter cannot be left at that, I must go to the Peak Master for an explanation!”

“Whether it’s for an explanation,” someone piped up, “We need to tell everyone how shameless Cao Zhen is!

Let him know the consequences of offending our Little Zen Peak!”

“We must inform everyone in the sect,” Yuan Ci mused for a moment before speaking, “Now that we’ve obtained the complete ‘Four Agama Sutras,’ our Little Zen Peak should not keep this significant event to ourselves, but share it with other Zen cultivation peaks as well.

Moreover, call over ranked peaks like Zither Music Peak at twenty-one and Purple Feather Mountain at twenty, those similar to ours in ranking, and let’s organize a small Dharma assembly.

Wu Xiang, you handle this.”

“Yes, Master,” Wu Xiang understood instantly.

Holding a small Dharma assembly firstly aimed to showcase Little Zen Peak’s newfound strength.

With the ‘Four Agama Sutras,’ Little Zen Peak could dominate among all the Zen cultivation peaks within the Hundred Peaks Sect.

From here on, Little Zen Peak would be the undisputed leader of the orthodox Zen sect within the Hundred Peaks Sect!

These next few days would be spent thoroughly studying the scriptures.

When that little monk comes for a doctrinal debate someday…

I might well have the strength to match him!

In the past, Yuan Ci feared the arrival of that little monk for a doctrinal debate, but now…

he was actually looking forward to it, to his coming!

To let him see that Little Zen Peak counted among the foremost in the world of Zen cultivation!

p>Secondly, it was naturally a celebration of the completion of the ‘Four Agama Sutras.’

Thirdly, he could naturally take the opportunity during the Dharma assembly to reveal all the deeds Cao Zhen had done.
