Get Lost Female Protagonist! I Choose the Villainess! - Chapter 50:

Chapter 50: Reaping Benefits Out of Thin Air?:

Many people had already decided to learn a few tricks from Ling Kong later. They didn’t care about his conditions; they were willing to sacrifice anything, even their dignity.

Ling Kong smiled faintly and casually took out the two swords.

Now, he had four swords in his hand! Four extra swords!

Qian Piaopiao looked at the four swords in Ling Kong’s hand, momentarily lost in thought.

How did he do it?

Or rather, how Xia Yuran managed it.

Was it really just luck?

Or did Ling Kong genuinely know there were swords inside, which is why he unhesitatingly increased the bid on all five sword furnaces?

She couldn’t figure it out, no matter how hard she tried!

How could someone in the 9th Stage Spirit Refining know if there were swords sealed under her Sword Qi?

“150,000 per sword! Pavilion Master, will you buy them back?”

At this moment, Ling Kong suddenly spoke to Qian Piaopiao. He had no use for these swords, so he decided to sell them back! After all, it was just a game between him and Xia Yuran.

Qian Piaopiao was momentarily stunned. “Ha! You sure know how to do business, huh?” She looked at Ling Kong. 15,000 spirit stones for each sword?

He spent 52,000 spirit stones in total, opened five swords, and now you’re asking 15,000 to buy each one back! Selling her four swords for 60,000! It meant he got to keep one sword and make 80,000 profit?

Reaping benefits out of thin air?

The more she looked at this kid, the more remarkable he seemed!

“Let’s bargain a bit. I’ll give you back your 52,000 spirit stones, and you leave the four swords. How about that?” Qian Piaopiao suggested.

“Heh, Pavilion Master, you should know the value of these swords! If I sell them to others, many disciples of the Sword Cloud Sect would be willing to pay this price!”

Ling Kong smiled and continued, “If I took these swords outside, I could sell them for at least 20,000 spirit stones each! 15,000 is already a favor!”

Qian Piaopiao looked at Ling Kong and gave in.

He had a point; it was indeed a favorable price. If these swords were sold outside, they would start at 20,000 spirit stones.

“Alright! I’ll buy them back!” Qian Piaopiao said, taking the four swords from Ling Kong. Then she leaned in close to Ling Kong’s ear and whispered, “Boy, can you really tell which furnaces have swords?”

Ling Kong smiled softly, “Pavilion Master, you can think whatever you like.”

“Tsk… then I’ll have to blacklist you from my Blind Sword Pavilion!” Qian Piaopiao replied.

“Then I’ll teach my method to everyone!” Ling Kong’s smile widened.

“Tsk… you little rascal. Fine! Name your price. Just don’t teach it to anyone else!” Qian Piaopiao felt a bit helpless.

Ling Kong didn’t ask for anything; he simply said, “A favor! Pavilion Master, I won’t tell anyone how to identify the swords, and I won’t come to the Blind Sword Pavilion again. But you owe me a favor!”

Qian Piaopiao, despite being a miser and a woman, was the strongest battle god in the Sword Cloud Sect, even stronger than the sect master!

In the future, there might be situations where he would need her help. Building a good relationship in advance was beneficial!

“Ha! Your business skills keep exceeding my expectations!” Qian Piaopiao laughed and said, “Alright! I owe you a favor! How about this, I won’t charge you for these four swords, and I’ll owe you another favor?”

“One favor is enough!” Ling Kong smiled.

This woman really couldn’t do without money!

Although he was a prince, tens of thousands of spirit stones were still a significant amount. He would need the money for other things. So, the second favor wasn’t necessary because the first one was the most valuable!

“Alright, alright!”

Qian Piaopiao sighed and then handed 60,000 spirit stones to Ling Kong.

“Then I won’t disturb the Pavilion Master any longer! Farewell!”

After receiving the money, Ling Kong cupped his hands and left the Blind Sword Pavilion with Jiang Ruoxi. This time, they had gained a sword and 8,000 spirit stones for free! Thanks to Xia Yuran’s luck!

Watching Ling Kong and Jiang Ruoxi leave, Qian Piaopiao smiled and shook her head.

This boy, worthy of being a prince, had an air of hidden depths!

She would have to get to know him better in the future!

…

After leaving the Blind Sword Pavilion, Jiang Ruoxi told Ling Kong, “Thank you!”

This Snow Listening Sword was very suitable for her.

With this sword, she could become even stronger.

“Use this sword for now. When your strength grows, I’ll get you the best sword!” Ling Kong said calmly.

Jiang Ruoxi smiled slightly and asked, “Then what about you? Why didn’t you keep one of the four swords just now?”

“I don’t need them!” Ling Kong laughed.

His sword was far superior. It had two forms!

In its ordinary form, it was a long black sword! It also had a God of War form, where it turned into a giant sword!

In that state, his combat power would soar temporarily, but the cost and backlash were substantial. It was his trump card, not to be used unless absolutely necessary!

“Alright!”

Jiang Ruoxi nodded, then asked, “By the way, what were you whispering to the Pavilion Master just now? You were so close that your ears were practically touching. What secret were you sharing?”

Ling Kong turned to look at Jiang Ruoxi, “Do you really think I would have anything to do with an old woman like her?”
