"I think so too," Lin Fan nodded in agreement.
Although Lin Fan said this, he wasn't actually worried, since Fang Yixiao had personally invited him and needed his help.
Lin Fan was still planning to go to the martial arts school tomorrow and talk to Fang Yixiao about Dong Tianjiao.
What gift should we prepare for Master Fang?
Looking at the dazzling array of shops, Su Ruowei was troubled: "They're all calligraphy and paintings, and I can't tell the difference between real and fake."
The first floor of Jubaozhai contains stationery, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
The jade sold on this floor is even more difficult to distinguish from the fakes, but if you manage to find a bargain, it's a sure way to make a fortune.
Seeing that they were about to reach the end of the shopping trip, Su Ruowei grabbed Lin Fan and said, "Honey, aren't you good at appraising treasures? Can you check which items are genuine?"
"Then I'll give it a try."
Lin Fan gave another wry smile: "But I've only read a book, so I can't say I have any expertise in appraising treasures."
After saying that, Lin Fan and his wife went into the shop next door.
The shop looks fairly tidy; apart from the wall with the door, the other three walls are covered with calligraphy and paintings.
A row of glass display cases was arranged right next to the wall, filled with seals and various kinds of writing implements.
Faced with a dazzling array of antiques, Lin Fan and his wife were at a loss as to where to begin.
Lin Fan suddenly had a whimsical idea and decided to directly activate his Heavenly Eye to check if anything came from the Nine Netherworlds.
Lin Fan didn't have high hopes, but he actually found a seal, which was also the only item in the shop that came from the Nine Netherworld.
Lin Fan hurried forward, went to the display case where the seal was located, looked down and saw that the price tag on it was 300 yuan.
You really don’t know what’s good!
Lin Fan clicked his tongue in amazement. This seal was made from the sharp teeth of the 'monster beast Huodou', and its luster was soft, no less than that of ivory.
Its rarity goes without saying; in the Nine Netherworlds, the 'Huodou Fang' is a material that only the imperial court and top sects are allowed to use.
"Boss, please get this seal for me," Lin Fan said excitedly to the boss beside him.
The shop manager glanced at the counter and was somewhat disappointed to see that Lin Fan wanted to buy a 300 yuan stamp.
The store manager reluctantly stepped forward, opened the counter, took out a stamp, and handed it to Lin Fan: "It's 300 in total. Let me make it clear beforehand that this is made of beef bone, so there are no refunds!"
"Don't worry, it's non-refundable!" Lin Fan excitedly took the seal, turned it over, and examined the engraved characters.
The four large characters "Fangmen" and "Lingzhu" are clearly engraved on it.
A glint flashed in Lin Fan's eyes. Fang Men, Ling Zhu, isn't that Fang Ling Zhu!
Fang Lingzhu is exactly Fang Yixiao's name in the Nine Netherworld!
This seal belongs to Fang Yixiao; it must be something he lost after coming to the mortal world!
This gift is quite substantial!
Seeing Lin Fan's excited expression, Su Ruowei couldn't help but ask curiously, "Honey, what kind of good thing is this ox bone seal?"
"A cow bone seal?"
Lin Fan smiled, glanced furtively at the shop manager, and then whispered in Su Ruowei's ear, "This is Hetian jade!"
Su Ruowei's mouth dropped open: "Hotan—"
"Shh!" Lin Fan quickly covered Su Ruowei's mouth, afraid that she would shout again.
Lin Fan told this lie to reassure Su Ruowei that the gift was impressive, but Su Ruowei was a little embarrassed when the store manager heard it.
"Why are you two acting like idiots? Don't make a scene in my shop!" The shopkeeper looked at Lin Fan and his wife with disdain. He had heard Tian Yu's words very clearly.
But I was too lazy to call him out on it; I could tell at a glance that this man was just fooling his silly wife.
"I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry!" Lin Fan nodded awkwardly and quickly left the store with Su Ruowei.
As soon as she stepped out of the store, Su Ruowei exclaimed excitedly, "Hetian jade? Did my husband get a bargain?!"
Su Ruowei wasn't greedy; she was simply delighted by the bargain she found.
"I've struck gold!" Lin Fan took out the seal and examined it carefully. He could vaguely sense a trace of spiritual energy surrounding the seal.
Just then, a seductive voice came from not far away:
"What did you manage to snag? Can I take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan and Su Ruowei looked up at the same time and saw the effeminate-looking man in front of them.
Lin Fan paused for a moment, then remembered that this person was Pei Huatian, who had appeared during the sect initiation ceremony.
At the time, as soon as the initiation ceremony ended, Lin Fan investigated the background of Huayun Sect and learned that the sect leader was named Pu Renmeng, and that the sect leader's confidant was Pei Huatian.
It is said that Park In-meng and Bae Hwa-cheon both possess the strength of the Transcendent Realm.
"Huatian, who are these two?"
The speaker was an elderly man with white hair. He was dressed in fine clothes and looked very energetic. He walked up behind Pei Huatian.
Lin Fan recognized him as Park In-meng, the sect leader of Huayun Sect. Lin Fan had seen his photo before when he was investigating the information.
Pei Huatian covered her face and smiled, revealing her feminine charm: "Sect Master, this man is a newcomer who joined our sect a few days ago. I heard from Mu Ying that he is quite strong."
Park In-myung's eyes flickered: "Mu Ying said his strength is not bad? Could it be that another expert has come to our Huayun Sect?"
Pei Huatian scoffed, "Yes, Mu Ying said this person knocked him down in one go, without any chance to fight back!"
One hit and he was knocked down! Completely powerless to fight back?
Upon hearing this, Park In-moon's eyes dimmed, and his gaze became somewhat mocking.
Park In-meng knew that Mu Ying was an elder of the Huayun Sect, a peak expert at the 9th level of the Body Refinement Realm, and even he himself would have to fight him for several rounds.
There is only one possibility: the newcomer in front of us used connections and bribed Mu Ying.
The Mountain City Group had recently carried out sect reforms aimed at eliminating sect corruption, but now their own sect had run into this mess, committing a crime under the spotlight. Park In-meng couldn't help but feel worried.
"Kid, what are you doing here?" Park In-meng asked Lin Fan coldly.
Lin Fan casually shook the seal in his hand: "Tomorrow is the opening of Lingyun Martial Arts School. I'm preparing a gift for Elder Fang."
"I advise you not to be so clever!" Park In-meng sneered, then said to Pei Huatian, "Don't waste time, let's go buy gifts first, and remember to investigate this kid."
Pei Huatian gave a fawning laugh: "Once tomorrow is over, I will give the sect leader an explanation!"
"Okay, let's go!" With that, Park In-meng led Pei Huatian past Lin Fan and strode away.
Lin Fan glanced back and used his Heavenly Eye to carefully observe the two.
Park In-meng has reached the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm and has initially constructed a Qi Sea within his body, but he is still unfamiliar with it and can be considered a weakling.
Pei Huatian was at the second level of the Transcendent Realm, but his internal energy sea was in disarray, making him the weakest of the weak.
Su Ruowei asked in a panic, "Husband, are these the Sect Master Park In-meng and the Grand Elder Pei Huatian of the Huayun Sect?"
Su Ruowei had seen the two of them before in the cards Gu Xinyan had collected; both were top figures in the martial arts world of Shancheng City.
But judging from the tone of Park In-meng and Bae Hwa-cheon's words just now, there seemed to be a sense of confrontation.
Lin Fan nodded: "That's right."
"Honey, did you have some kind of misunderstanding with them before?" Su Ruowei asked worriedly.
