Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1111: Chapter 1110: Pupil Technique

”Isn’t that the kid from just now?”

The Black Snake Saint’s expression suddenly changed; only then did he react, and his gaze turned instantly gloomy.

”What’s wrong, leader?”

That male snake person asked in surprise.

”If you were to run into those two again, you’d definitely recognize them, right?”

The Black Snake Saint said in a low voice.

”Of course. The faces of those two are already imprinted in my mind. If I see them, I’ll recognize them at once!” the male snake person vowed solemnly.

”Good. Come with me.”

A chill flashed across the Black Snake Saint’s eyes. He took the male snake person with him and walked toward the main doors of the East Sea Chamber of Commerce’s shop.

Inside the shop’s loft.

All kinds of dazzling Treasures were displayed in counters, each emitting its own radiance, with clearly marked prices.

Those Spiritual Medicines and Treasures that were rarely seen in the outside world were common here. It was just that their prices were often enough to make people flinch.

At this time, a Maid with a graceful figure and alluring curves also walked up, smiling at Ling Chen and Lin Wan as she said, ”Do you two need anything?”

”Do you have any Saint Body Ointment for sale here?”

Ling Chen swept his gaze around, then asked.

”I’m sorry, sir.”

The Maid shook her head. ”Something like Saint Body Ointment wouldn’t be put out here for direct sale. It usually only appears at auctions.”

”Alright then.”

Ling Chen nodded. He hadn’t held out much hope of buying Saint Body Ointment here anyway. After all, that sort of thing was far too rare. If it was put up at auction, the price would undoubtedly multiply several times over.

”If you want Saint Body Ointment, sir, there will be some on the block at the auction our Chamber is holding this time. You can keep an eye out for it.” The Maid said softly with a smile.

”Thank you for the information.”

Ling Chen nodded. The auction held by the East Sea Chamber of Commerce this time would be in three days. By then, quite a few rare treasures should surface.

Since there was no Saint Body Ointment, Ling Chen looked over some of the other items. After he and Lin Wan browsed the shop and purchased some things he needed, he called a Maid over.

Earlier, he had killed the Undying Old Demon, the Hook-Nosed Elder, the Ice and Fire Dual Swords, and the others. All of their assets had fallen into his hands. Some of those things were hard to offload in the Nine Provinces Land, since they involved the Huangfu Clan and Ling Family, those two great Aristocratic Families. But here in the Penglai Island Territory, there was absolutely no such taboo.

Even if some of the secret manuals involved the martial arts of those two Aristocratic Families, with the power of the East Sea Chamber of Commerce, they would naturally accept them without question. Besides, the hands of the Ling Family and the Huangfu Clan simply couldn’t reach this Penglai Island Territory.

Once he liquidated the assets of those four Senior Half-Saints, Ling Chen immediately converted them into around one hundred and forty to fifty thousand Spirit Nurturing Pills. Adding the four hundred thousand he already had, the number of Spirit Nurturing Pills in his possession suddenly jumped to more than five hundred and fifty thousand.

If he included the money Shen Bingxin had used to bid on the Cold Condensing Pearl, then it came to over a million.

”Now, when I go to that auction, I won’t be so strapped for cash.”

Ling Chen slowly let out a breath. Only with money did one have confidence. No one could guarantee what kind of enticing Treasures would appear at the auction. Without sufficient funds, he would probably end up no more than a spectator.

At this moment, not far behind Ling Chen and Lin Wan, the Black Snake Saint and the others also entered their field of view.

”Are those the two you saw?”

The Black Snake Saint pointed at Ling Chen and Lin Wan and said coldly.

The male snake person sneaked a glance at the two, then his eyes suddenly lit up. ”Leader, yes, it’s them!”

”Hmph, what a reckless brat.”

The Black Snake Saint’s gaze turned ice-cold. His figure flickered, and he seemed to vanish from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already standing right in front of Ling Chen.

”Hm?”

Ling Chen naturally sensed the disturbance at once. His eyes fell on the Black Snake Saint, and they moved slightly.

He naturally recognized that this was the Heavenly Snake Gang’s leader the passersby had just been talking about, the Black Snake Saint. Judging by the man’s expression, he clearly hadn’t come with friendly intentions.

”What does Your Excellency want?”

Beside him, Lin Wan also stared at the Black Snake Saint with a wary face. She had heard of his vicious reputation. This fellow was the very definition of a Local Snake Power. She couldn’t tell why he had come looking for them.

”What do I want? That’s a question I should be asking you.”

The Black Snake Saint let out a cold laugh. A flash of chill suddenly appeared in his eyes. ”Did you kill a few snake people earlier? One of them was a cousin of mine.”

”Cousin?”

Lin Wan’s pretty face changed color. Among the group of pirates Ling Chen had killed with one sword earlier, there had actually been the Black Snake Saint’s cousin.

This was a bit troublesome. The Black Snake Saint’s Heavenly Snake Gang counted as a Local Snake Power. They had just arrived and had already provoked such a thorny force.

”Sorry, I didn’t know your cousin was among them.”

Ling Chen apologized verbally, but there wasn’t the slightest hint of apology on his face. A trace of surprise flashed in Lin Wan’s eyes. Given Ling Chen’s personality, she hadn’t expected him to show weakness to the Black Snake Saint. That really was strange.

Still, it wasn’t a bad thing. The less trouble the better. If this matter could be resolved peacefully, then making some concessions wouldn’t be unacceptable.

”But even if I had known, I probably still wouldn’t have spared his life.”

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Ling Chen’s mouth.

”I knew it.”

Lin Wan gave a wry smile. She still didn’t understand him. Ling Chen was still the same Ling Chen. This guy simply wasn’t someone who knew how to back down, even if the other party was a Saint...

”Haha, boy, I’ve never met anyone as arrogant as you.”

The smile on the Black Snake Saint’s face suddenly froze. A chilling gleam burst forth from his eyes. A mere brat at the Seventh Heaven Realm of the Sky Apex actually dared to disregard him like this.

He was practically asking for death!

A jade-green light suddenly shot out from the Black Snake Saint’s eyes. Within it, a strange black flower seemed to bloom rapidly. In that moment, the world around them changed, as if it had been sucked into the Black Snake Saint’s eyes and turned into a pitch-black space.

Pupil Technique!

Lin Wan’s delicate face underwent a drastic change. She could feel that the surrounding space had completely severed itself from the real world. This was an illusory space created by the Black Snake Saint’s Pupil Technique.

Hiss, hiss!

Behind the Black Snake Saint, a black Python over a hundred zhang long appeared. The instant it showed itself, it suddenly opened its bloody maw and lunged to devour Ling Chen and Lin Wan!
