Chapter 92 The Black-Hearted Trap of Shangqing Palace

Xiao Qi's body was full of spiritual energy, clearly indicating that she was a cultivator at the Qi Refining Realm. Chen Ren was unsure of which level of Qi Refining she was at.

He couldn't win, but he wasn't flustered.

"Oh, so you're going to bully the weak?"

He let out a cold laugh, then brandished the identification token at his waist: "Do you know who I am?"

"Does he have connections?"

Xiao Qi subconsciously stopped and looked at the young master behind her.

"Ignore the Shangqing Palace token; its network of connections is almost completely wiped out."

The young man scoffed: "Others may be afraid of your Qingcheng Mountain Temple and Shangqing Palace, but I'm not."

He pointed to himself and said, "Do you know who I am?"

"My name is Yuan Baihe, grandson of the Yuan family tycoon. In terms of status, you're not even worthy to carry my shoes."

Unexpectedly, he was Yuan Baihe. Chen Ren had heard of his name before, and coincidentally, he ran into him right away.

But he remained calm.

"Oh, your identity is impressive, but I've heard that your Yuan family is well-informed. Don't you know about the battle for the third realm in Xiaoqing Kingdom before?"

He pointed to himself: "The Celestial Master Cave bullied me because they were big, so my master came out and killed that old dog Dongfang Dongyang with three swords."

Upon hearing Chen Ren's words, Yuan Baihe's face clearly showed a look of astonishment.

"You dare to insult a cultivator at the Third Realm?"

How arrogant! Just in case, he turned to the guard beside him and said, "Quickly connect to our family's private network and check."

His bodyguard immediately took out his phone and checked the information on the spot.

Yuan Baihe snatched it away, and when he pulled up Chen Ren's portrait and compared it with the person in front of him, his face immediately turned ugly.

"Damn! It really is you!"

Theoretically speaking, he could have easily killed Chen Ren and then done whatever he wanted.

But that's in theory. Zhang Yunqing, that madwoman, doesn't talk about such grand principles. She can even kill Dongfang Dongyang. If she bullies the weak, then maybe the Shangqing Palace will also bully the weak.

Actually, the people in Shangqing Palace are very easy to get along with. If you talk to them about the rules, they will also talk to you about the rules.

To what extent? Apart from Zhang Yunqing, all the second-generation disciples were wiped out, and none of the old guys made a move.

"It really is you! What bad luck!"

Yuan Baihe turned and left, saying, "Never mind, let's find somewhere else."

"Brother, don't go!"

Chen Ren, however, spoke up to stop him.

"What? I can't lay a hand on you, but don't blame me if you're courting death."

Yuan Baihe's voice turned cold: "I'll deal with you when you reach the second realm."

"No, as the saying goes, it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. I don't think you need that much space. There are still quite a few empty rooms in Sanfu Town."

A smile appeared on Chen Ren's face: "I can speak a few words, so selling you a house isn't out of the question."

Selling a house?

Yuan Baihe subconsciously thought there was a trap, but then he thought again that the people of Shangqing Palace were trustworthy.

"Okay, how much?"

He can spend a few million to buy a courtyard house, and once the official magical artifact arrives, he can earn back all of it.

The Yuan family has inside information; the magical artifacts that the authorities brought this time are extraordinary and involve a great opportunity.

It appears to be about converting zombies into spirit stones, but in reality...

Many forces have received this news and will surely come.

Across from Yuan Baihe, Chen Ren, his smile undiminished, raised an index finger.

"One million?"

Yuan Baihe nodded: "Okay, this price is fair."

In normal times, the price of a mansion in Xiaoqing Kingdom's capital city is between 100,000 and 300,000 yuan. But now, during this special period, he would accept selling it for 1 million yuan.

"What? One million? It's ten million."

Chen Ren smiled and said, "There are no empty spaces anywhere in Xiaoqing Kingdom now. Three people can stand in one square meter of space. You have brought so many people with you. There is definitely no more suitable place than here."

Ten million?

[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +30!]

Does he think his money comes from thin air? Ten million? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Yuan Baihe turned around immediately, too lazy to waste another word with Chen Ren!

Chen Ren wasn't in a hurry; he knew Yuan Baihe would definitely come back.

This small country is already overcrowded.

No one knows what that magical artifact is. Not to mention forces like Yucheng and Qingcheng Mountain Academy, even people from other major cities are rushing here.

He has already sent messages to his senior classmates, urging them to also compete for this opportunity.

His previous words were not an exaggeration at all.

"Sir, ten million is too much."

Chief Rolo whispered, "He seems to be the son of some important person. What if we offend them and they cause us trouble later?"

Rollo's concerns were not unfounded. During this time, he had also been studying and learning about the ways and practices of the human race.

Offending such a powerful figure, even a little hardship would be enough to make Sanfu Town never recover.

"Don't be afraid, they have plenty of money. Once they buy the courtyard, they'll protect your Sanfu Town in the future."

Chen Rensheng was confident that Yuan Baihe would return.

Sure enough, three hours later Yuan Baihe returned, gritting his teeth as he asked, "Could you make it less?"

"cannot."

Chen Ren raised one finger, and then raised two fingers on his other hand.

"What do you mean by that?" Yuan Baihe was a little confused and subconsciously asked Xiao Qi beside him, "Do you understand?"

Xiaoqi seemed to understand, but she didn't dare to say it.

Chen Ren spoke up for her: "It's 1200 million now. I'm sorry, but with more and more people coming, my price naturally has to go up a bit."

Yuan Baihe stared at Chen Ren in shock. Could there really be such a greedy person in this world?

Is this shady thing really from the Qing Dynasty?

"You're definitely holding a grudge against me for my attitude just now, aren't you?"

He tried to soften his tone: "I admit I raised my voice a bit. How about this, let's be friends..."

Chen Ren remained unmoved: "If I say another word, it'll cost 1300 million!"

"The password!"

Yuan Baihe was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to reluctantly hand over 1200 million yuan.

Rollo stared, his eyes wide with amazement.

When Sanfu Town bought this place, it only cost this much in total. Now, a single house has sold for 1300 million?

Good heavens, he never dreamed he could earn so much.

"Chieftain, please keep this safe and remember to pay your taxes."

Chen Ren subconsciously remembered his unregistered status, and his eyelids twitched. It was really inconvenient.

He leaned close to Rollo and whispered:

"Try to choose a smaller house. I reckon there are still quite a few wealthy people who want to buy it. We can use this money to raise our children; it's still a profit."

Just as Yuan Baihe said, Chen Ren's heart is black.

He believed that the capital of Xiaoqing Kingdom was only so big, and the young noblemen who came later would definitely discover Sanfu Town and spend money to buy the courtyard.

Sure enough, as it was getting dark, people came to the town entrance again.

The other person was a woman, alone, gazing out of the town entrance, seemingly looking for an empty room.

"Buying a house?"

Chen Ren asked with a grin, "Since you're the first beautiful girl here, I'll give you a 99% discount."

How much of a discount can I get with a 99% discount?

Liu Yaotai smiled slightly: "I heard you still have some empty space here."

"A 1% discount could save you 100,000 yuan."

Chen Ren chuckled, "Our houses cost 1000 million each, no deception."
