Mysterious Jade Stone at 3 AM, seeking collection

  "Song Shixiong, what are you going to do about this matter?"

  In another inn, a beautiful woman looked at Song Jianghu's face which was red and green, and asked in a low voice.

  "What to do?" Song Jianghu's face was filled with a cold aura, his slightly narrowed eyes gleaming with two icy lights that were extremely sharp and menacing. In a cold voice, he said: "I won't let him return alive to the Double Blade Sect!"

  "Ah!"

  The beautiful woman was slightly startled, but she immediately relaxed. She had long heard of Song Jianghu's character, and if it weren't for a cousin, with Song Jianghu's temperament, he would have been beheaded long ago.

  "Han State's Xu family isn't trying to kill that stinky little brat, huh? Heh heh... Then I'll just tell the Xu family about that little brat's whereabouts and let them ambush him on his way back to the sect!"

  Song Jiang narrowed his eyes.

  ……

  Li Ke left the Tongfu Inn and walked alone to a free trading street in Hanshui City, where he spent most of his time during the day for three days, searching for some special treasures.

  The street was deserted, a stark contrast to the bustle of the previous day. There were few passersby, and Li Ke glanced around before walking in.

  This street is the largest trading place for miscellaneous goods in Hanshui City. There are no storefronts here, and the passing soldiers set up stalls on the spot, placing all sorts of things directly on their own prepared beast skins: iron dan, iron bones, spiritual grass, raw ore, scrap iron, weapons, medicinal dan... The items are varied and numerous, with nothing unusual or unobtainable. There is also a rumor that someone once found an extremely high-quality, top-grade spirit soldier on this street.

  For these ordinary items, Li Ke didn't have much interest. Even if he accidentally stumbled upon them, to him, it was just a few more tens of thousands of silver coins. If he wasn't careful and drew others' attention, it would be counterproductive.

  "Can such a peerless elite soldier emerge so easily?" The rarity of peerless elite soldiers in the Hanshui region can be said to be top-notch, and it's not something that ordinary soldiers can imagine. Even among the four major sects of Hanshui, there are less than twenty peerless elite soldiers.

  Li Ke looked left and right, his spiritual power spreading out in all directions. This was actually quite a drain on his spiritual power, but after the past few days of training, he had become much more efficient with it.

  As he passed by a grocery stall, Li Ke suddenly stopped in his tracks, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

  From his perspective, he saw a stall with a seemingly illusory yet razor-sharp purple glow that was hazy and indistinct.

  "What a great thing!"

  Li Ke's eyes lit up instantly, and upon closer inspection, he saw that there were only a few things on the stall, but they were all ordinary iron bones and iron pellets, and they were all low-grade iron products with little value. Next to the iron bones and iron pellets were two old books, several stalks of strange-looking spiritual grass, which were all lower-grade products from ten years ago.

  A small piece of jade, like a flying dragon soaring in the sky, majestic and awe-inspiring.

  The boss of the stall was an old man wearing a yellow robe, with a long, rectangular package wrapped in black cloth on his back, and it was unknown what was inside.

  The man in yellow clothes looked at Li Ke and smiled foolishly: "What has this young master taken a fancy to?"

  Li Ke smiled and said: "My surname is Li, but I'm not some young master, just an ordinary inner disciple!"

  "Inner door disciple, wearing white clothes, then you must be a disciple of one of the four major sects in Hanshui, Double Knife Sect! The Double Knife Sect is powerful and shakes the entire Hanshui region. An ordinary inner door disciple has a very high status!" The man in yellow robes slightly curled his tongue and said, looking at Li Ke with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

  Li Ke smiled slightly and didn't say much.

  His gaze first fell on the two old books, one of which was called "Ziyang Gong" and was a high-grade yellow-level cultivation method for refining soldiers. The effect of Ziyang Gong was to make the soldier's soul more masculine; while the other book was an ordinary Shanhe Jing.

  Gently putting down two worn-out books, Li Ke's gaze swept over the iron bone and spiritual grass before finally settling on a small jade stone.

  A small piece of jade, pure white throughout, crystal clear and translucent. If not viewed with spiritual energy, this piece of jade has no luster at all, very ordinary. However, the flying dragon carved on the jade is vividly lifelike, extremely realistic, and full of vitality.

  This is a five-clawed flying dragon, the dragon beast gazes up at the nine heavens, with a purple light in its eyes. The flying dragon's body curves, Li Ke looks and looks, suddenly feeling that this flying dragon is very much like a sword!

  Li Ke's face showed a hint of curiosity as he picked up the Fei Long Yu Shi, carefully examining it while also releasing his spiritual energy.

  "Hum!"

  As soon as the Soul Force was unleashed, Li Ke's mind suddenly felt an unstoppable and astonishing sword aura that shot straight up to the clouds. A loud and clear sword hum shook the sky, and in an instant, a purple flying dragon, like a sharp divine sword, burst into the ninth heaven, shattering everything.

  "What a powerful sword aura!"

  Li Ke's spirit was shaken, the sword energy just now was too terrifying, too vast. Compared to it, he was like a leaf in the ocean, and would be instantly erased.

  Li Ke narrowed his eyes and used his spiritual power to see through the Feilong Jade Stone.

  A purple halo slowly transformed into a map of roads, with mountains and rivers, and a purple flying dragon stood like a sword among the mountains.

  "This piece of Feilong jade is actually a treasure stone!"

  Li Ke was deeply shocked after discovering the secret of Fei Long Yu Shi. On Shen Bing Continent, there were many special treasures that were sealed by some powerful gods with unique techniques, and only spiritual masters could see through them to know their secrets.

  These treasures include special weapons, magical elixirs, ancient tomes of martial arts, and the ultimate martial art. Li Ke never thought that he would see a jade stone with a hidden treasure map sealed within it.

  Although he was shocked in his heart, Li Ke's face didn't change much. He looked at the stall owner and asked, "Boss, where did you pick up this jade stone?"

  The boss of the stall, a man in yellow clothes, now looked at Li Ke with a very different gaze, but he concealed it well. The man chuckled and said: "This piece of Fei Long Yu Shi was found by me in a fifth-level forbidden land, although I don't know what secrets are on it, it's definitely extraordinary. Young master, if you want to take it away, without this price, it's absolutely impossible!"

  The man in yellow clothes made a five-finger gesture towards Li Ke.

  "50,000 taels?"

  "Fifty thousand taels, haha... Young Master is joking, it's five million taels!" The man in yellow clothes looked at Li Ke with a very serious smile, his eyes full of playful glint.

  "Five hundred thousand taels!" As soon as Li Ke heard this price, he knew that the yellow-robed man was no ordinary person. He immediately focused his eyes, wanting to see through the yellow-robed man's martial soul, but no matter how hard he tried to use his spiritual power, he couldn't see through the yellow-robed man's true martial soul.
