At that moment, Lu Yunfeng’s eyes swept over the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck. Sister-in-law had specially given them jade pendants back then, but who wouldn’t want more good stuff? He had known back then that Sister-in-law had put it up for sale, but it was only two or three of them. One could imagine how precious this thing was.
Not only could it nourish the body and extend one’s lifespan, it could also block attacks from evil spirits. He had waited to snatch it up, but who would have thought that Jiang Duo would beat him to it? Ever since this kid found out about the good stuff in Sister-in-law’s Taobao shop, he had been snatching a lot of stuff these days.
At that moment, Lu Yunfeng’s eyes almost turned red as he stared at the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck.
How could Jiang Duo not see Lu Yunfeng’s burning gaze? When he thought of how this jade pendant had heated up and stopped him from entering the lake, he knew that it wasn’t any ordinary good thing. Looking at Lu Yunfeng’s gaze now, Jiang Duo increasingly felt that this was the case. Thinking this, Jiang Duo was both alarmed and elated. When Master Chi let go of the jade pendant, Jiang Duo gripped it tightly and didn’t let anyone touch it.
Chang Hao, Xiao Ningjin and Xiong Luoying had also seen the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck before. He had promoted it to them a lot before. When they found out that Jiang Duo had bought it from that shady shop for 30 million, they felt that he had been cheated.
When they thought of how the shady Taobao shop owner they had been talking about was right in front of them, and how they were still calling her Master Chi, Chang Hao, Xiong Luoying and Xiao Ningjin were a bit stupefied and even more skeptical.
The Taobao shop owner was beautiful. If it wasn’t for Lu Yunfeng, they really would have thought that Jiang Duo was hitting on this shop owner.
Before they left, seeing that they had already paid a deposit, Chi Shuyan also took out 20 intermediate and high-level Exorcism Talismans and gave them five each. They had paid the deposit very readily, so Chi Shuyan was especially generous with the Exorcism Talismans.
Jiang Duo happily took the talismans and immediately put them in his pocket. Compared with Jiang Duo’s excitement and happiness, the other three were a bit stupefied. For a moment, they didn’t know if they should take these talismans or not, let alone if they should question the fact that they had spent so much money for just these few pieces of yellow paper – who knew if they would be of any use or not.
Xiong Luoying’s feelings were even more complicated. After all, he had once bought no less than 100 of these talismans for one yuan each from a stall called Blind God of Fortune or other. Now, he was spending tens of millions on paper that he clearly knew was useless?
Xiong Luoying did want to object, but seeing the excited faces of Jiang Duo and Lu Yunfeng, and how the owner of the shady shop was indeed a beautiful woman, Xiong Luoying could only give up and obediently and casually put the talismans away.
Before he left, Xiao Ningjin looked at Chi Shuyan a few more times and suddenly said, “If I’m willing to spend 30 million on the same jade pendant that Jiang Duo is wearing, is that okay?”
As soon as Xiao Ning said that, Jiang Duo looked expectantly at Chi Shuyan, but Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao couldn’t help but blurt out in unison, “You’re crazy!”
Xiao Ningjin ignored Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao. He looked at Chi Shuyan again and repeated seriously, “Master Chi, if I’m willing to spend 30 million on the same jade pendant, is that okay?”
