Versatile Sword Cultivator

Chapter 186 – Too weak

"Brother Lin, don't worry. I know this is the first Earth Grade weapon, and it's worth a lot. I won't let you suffer a loss. Currently, Mysterious Grade equipment goes for around ten thousand Spirit Stones on the market. For Earth Grade, I think it should be at least twenty thousand to fifty thousand Spirit Stones. I'll buy it for fifty thousand Spirit Stones!"

"Of course, the guild is currently tight on Spirit Stones. How about this? We'll do a cash transaction. Fifty thousand Spirit Stones can be exchanged for over ten million Chinese Yuan. I'll give you fifteen million directly. How about that?"

Wang Jinghao's offer was indeed sincere.

He genuinely wanted to buy Lin Jichen's weapon.

Lin Jichen pondered. This Earth Grade axe was indeed useless to him, and its attributes were mediocre.

He had seen plenty of Earth Grade equipment, and this one was definitely on the lower end.

Most importantly, this axe could only be used by someone in the Golden Core Realm.

That made it even more of a chicken rib.

Even if he took it to the next auction, selling it for two or three thousand Spirit Stones would be considered good.

Wang Jinghao was willing to pay fifty thousand; why not?

It was another chance to swindle him.

"I was planning to put it up for auction, but since Brother Wang has asked, sure! I'll sell it to you!"

Lin Jichen pretended to be pained as he spoke.

Wang Jinghao was overjoyed, repeatedly thanking him and immediately suggesting they meet in Fengqu City for the transaction.

"I'm still on a mission and can't return right now. It'll probably take two days."

Wang Jinghao felt a bit anxious upon hearing this. He was afraid Lin Jichen might sell the axe to the Moon Shadow Guild in the meantime, especially since Su Wanling was his online girlfriend.

"Two days is fine, but let's sign a contract first. I'll send it to you, just sign it, and we can trade as soon as you return."

To be safe, Wang Jinghao decided to secure the contract first, so he wouldn't lose the fish already in his net.

Lin Jichen didn't expect him to be so eager, practically throwing money at him.

How could he not accept such a good deal?

They immediately signed an electronic contract, and Wang Jinghao transferred fifteen million in cash to Lin Jichen on the spot.

Lin Jichen had now become a hidden multimillionaire.

After a brief chat, Lin Jichen was about to end the conversation when Jiang Luoyu sent a message.

"That axe, did you get it?"

"Yes," Lin Jichen replied.

"I remember you're a Sword Cultivator, right?" Jiang Luoyu asked knowingly, adding a mischievous doge emoji.

Her meaning was clear.

"Sell it to me? My guild has plenty of players who use axes. Name your price."

"Uh... I've already sold it to Wang Jinghao," Lin Jichen answered honestly.

Jiang Luoyu was silent for a moment before asking, "You still don't want to reconcile with me, do you?"

Lin Jichen broke into a sweat and quickly explained that he was using it to swindle Wang Jinghao. The axe's attributes were mediocre and not worth the high price.

To convince Jiang Luoyu, Lin Jichen sent her the axe's attributes.

After reading it, Jiang Luoyu calmed down and laughed, "That's more like it. When you get back, let's go to Corpse King Valley. Your shop needs restocking, Boss Lin."

"Absolutely," Lin Jichen agreed with a wry smile.

After ending the chat, Lin Jichen planned to continue searching for the Thunder Dragon but realized it was already dark.

The Thunder Marsh at night was several times more terrifying than during the day.

To be safe, Lin Jichen decided to wait until morning to go out.

He logged out of the game.

Although logging out in the wild was dangerous, Lin Jichen had his gaming ring with him.

The ring, like the gaming pod, was bound to Lin Jichen's Tale of Immortal account.

This was to provide a better gaming experience for players using the gaming pod.

Even without the pod, players could log into Tale of Immortal anytime, anywhere with the ring.

Moreover, if you encountered danger while logged out, the game would send a text message to your bound phone number, alerting you that your character was in danger.

This feature perfectly solved the issue of unsafe logging out.

After logging out, Lin Jichen walked out of his room and found Ren Lan already out of the game, playing chess with Niu Naitang in the living room.

Niu Naitang was lying on the sofa, with Ren Lan sitting across from her, a chessboard between them.

There were reheated dishes on the dining table, leftovers from lunch.

Ren Lan's mother had made a lot of food, and they couldn't finish it in one meal, so they saved it for dinner.

Two empty bowls indicated someone had already eaten.

Qin Xiaowei was not around, probably at the company again.

It seemed Niu Naitang, bored after dinner, had decided to play chess with Ren Lan in the living room.

Seeing Ren Lan scratching her head, Lin Jichen knew this Miss Frenzy was getting thoroughly beaten.

He had seen Niu Naitang scare off a group of old men playing chess in the neighborhood before.

How could Ren Lan, a novice, be a match for Niu Naitang?

She couldn't even beat him.

Seeing Lin Jichen come out, Niu Naitang flashed an irresistibly cute smile and called out, "Brother Lin~"

Lin Jichen walked over and asked with a smile, "Playing chess?"

"Yes, Sister Ren Lan called me for dinner. After eating, we started playing chess. We wanted to call you, Brother Lin, but Sister Ren Lan said you were busy, so we ate first," Niu Naitang explained.

Lin Jichen looked at Ren Lan and teased, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Without lifting her head, Ren Lan waved her hand and said, "Don't disturb me. I'm contemplating a winning move. Go eat, or the food will get cold."

Lin Jichen chuckled, letting her focus, and served himself a bowl of rice, enjoying his meal at the dining table.

Ren Lan and Niu Naitang continued their game.

Niu Naitang looked particularly relaxed, lying on the sofa with her chubby cheeks propped up by her hands, her little feet kicking playfully, completely at ease.

In contrast, Ren Lan was restless, frowning, occasionally biting her nails, deep in thought.

"Sister Ren Lan, are you done yet? Tang Tang is about to fall asleep."

"Don't rush me while I'm playing chess. I'm thinking, you wouldn't understand," Ren Lan said, finally making a move she had pondered for a long time, thinking it was flawless.

Niu Naitang casually moved a piece, placing a cannon next to Ren Lan's general.

"Double cannon checkmate. Sister Ren Lan, you're so bad at this. Didn't you say you were a chess master? You've lost over ten times, and we've only been playing for half an hour."

Niu Naitang's childish voice was filled with boredom, as she found no challenge in beating Ren Lan.

Frustrated, Ren Lan reset Niu Naitang's move.

"No, no, that doesn't count. I wasn't paying attention. Let's redo it."

"That's called taking back a move."

"Fine, just this once!"

"Alright."

Ren Lan happily changed her strategy.

But within a few moves, she was checkmated again...

"You lost again, Sister Ren Lan. You're really like fourteen days."

"What do you mean?"

"Too weak."
