Chapter 1326 A Swindler
Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat and he immediately lowered his head.
The waiter had already pulled Xiang Nan, wanting to find a gentleman on the first floor to introduce him.
Xiang Nan lowered his head and quickly said, "Take me to the second floor! Quick!"
The waiter asked curiously, "But, this gentleman on the first floor can …"
"Quick!" Xiang Nan immediately stuffed a Magic Crystal into the clerk's hand and wrapped it in Astral Qi to prevent the clerk from burning through his palm.
The waiter was so happy that his eyes went straight. He just nodded and said, "Alright, alright, I'll take you to the second floor. Please follow me."
Xiang Nan lowered his head and followed the waiter up the stairs, but his heart was beating violently.
Just as the two of them walked up the stairs, the disciple of the Veluriyam Sect casually glanced up the stairs and saw Xiang Nan's back.
"Huh?" The disciple was thoughtful as he watched Xiang Nan's back disappear at the corner of the second floor.
"Have you met a friend?" The old man asked the disciple.
The disciple frowned and said, "I think I've seen that figure before, but I can't remember it for a while."
On the second floor, there were still some tea tables. There were sparse guests holding their own treasures for the gentlemen of the Southern Wind Pavilion to taste.
Xiang Nan felt uneasy, so he gave the clerk another magic crystal and went up to the third floor.
The third floor was empty, with only two old men sitting opposite, leisurely playing chess.
Xiang Nan had already lost his way. He had to fix the human skin mask here, and fix it on the spot! Otherwise, when they went down the stairs, they would definitely be seen by that disciple.
The two old men, one fat and one thin, squinted their eyes as they drank tea, their eyes wandering on the chessboard.
The skinny old man looked at Xiang Nan and said, "Sit down."
As soon as Xiang Nan sat down, he immediately took out the human skin mask and showed it to the skinny old man.
"This thing?" The skinny old man sized it up and said, "What do you want?"
Xiang Nan said modestly, "I hope the old gentleman can help me take a look. Can this thing be repaired and where should it be repaired?"
The skinny old man looked at the fat old man and said, "Show him, if he is willing to help you."
Xiang Nan looked at the fat old man anxiously, but the fat old man didn't even glance at Xiang Nan. No matter how Xiang Nan asked, he didn't say anything.
Xiang Nan sat there, slightly embarrassed.
The skinny old man smiled and said, "This person is not from our Southern Wind Pavilion, but he can repair your mask, but …"
"There's a condition for him to help."
"What conditions? Just say it." Xiang Nan said.
The skinny old man looked at the fat old man and said, "You have to give him the same thing. He has never seen or heard of anything before, so he is willing to help."
Xiang Nan was stunned.
The treasures of this new world were much more than the treasures of his own world. He possessed all kinds of sixth-grade pills, seventh-grade pills, and profound-grade weapons.
What could he have on him that the fat old man had never heard of?
After thinking for a long time, Xiang Nan did not get any results. If he had the Nightmare Saber, he could try his luck, but now …
The fat old man kept looking at the chessboard and ignored Xiang Nan. After a few minutes, he finally said, "Since there is no such thing, please go back."
The sound of footsteps came from downstairs. Xiang Nan's exceptionally keen sense of hearing sensed it. With his mind and eyes, he observed that it was precisely the disciple of the Veluriyam Sect who went up to the second floor!
Accompanied by the old man on the first floor, the disciple found the gentleman on the second floor, as if he was appraising something.
Sh*t!
That disciple was holding an Origin Pill in his hand! I don't know where he got it.
Origin pills were unique to their own world. They were created by half a gourd. They were common in their own world, but in this world, other than the Bai Clan, Origin pills had never appeared before.
The gentleman on the second floor would not be able to recognize it. At that time, the disciple of the Veluriyam Sect would definitely walk up to the third floor.
Time was of the essence!
Xiang Nan secretly scolded himself for being stupid. Back then, he was also strong enough to obtain some Origin Pills, but because these things were too evil, they were all destroyed by his own hands.
If he had one in his hand, wouldn't he be able to give it to the fat old man?
"It's dangerous, kid Xiang Nan. That disciple has already begun to talk to the gentleman on the second floor. When he comes up and finds you, he will shout and you won't be able to fly."
"This is the entrance to the Veluriyam Sect!"
Xiang Nan glanced at the window. If he really couldn't do it, he would directly jump out of the window and flee. Or he could directly kill that disciple. However, killing him would also alert the Veluriyam Sect.
If he escaped? Wouldn't that arouse the suspicions of the Veluriyam Sect and strengthen their defense? At that time, it would be even harder to sneak into the Veluriyam Sect.
Even so, Xiang Nan had already begun to use the power of the Void Divine Lightning. Running away was better than being beaten to death by an elder of the Veluriyam Sect.
"Still not leaving?" The fat old man said indifferently, "If you want me to help you without any treasures, you're just talking nonsense."
"Dream?"
An inspiration suddenly exploded in Xiang Nan's mind.
"Please wait a moment!" Xiang Nan closed his eyes and fell asleep in the fastest way possible.
In the dream world, everything around him still existed. Xiang Nan directly took out a Fifth Grade Magic Crystal from his storage ring and dreamed.
He had obtained a rank 5 Magic Crystal in the form of a dream. This item would also be brought into the real world, but it would automatically disappear after ten minutes.
Otherwise, he would be able to replicate the magic crystals infinitely in such a way. Wouldn't that be a heaven-defying move?
"Magic crystals?" The fat old man looked at the Class 5 Magic Crystal in Xiang Nan's palm and said, "That's right, this thing is indeed precious, but unfortunately, it is not new."
Xiang Nan smiled, "Take another look."
The fat old man heard this and looked at the magic crystal. He suddenly discovered that the surface of the magic crystal was shrouded in a faint black halo, making the magic crystal look very unreal.
"Eh?"
Not only was the fat old man curious, even the skinny old man was attracted to it. The two old men looked at the magic crystal in Xiang Nan's hand and kept on clicking in amazement.
"Where did you get this?" The fat old man was indeed interested.
Xiang Nan had no way of explaining. He could only casually say, "I encountered a nightmare demon in the Endless Forest. It seemed like it could shuttle between dreams and reality."
"Oh?" The two old men suddenly stood up and looked at Xiang Nan in disbelief.
Xiang Nan's words were truly a fantasy, but the magic crystal was lying in Xiang Nan's hands, so it was impossible not to believe it.
Even the fat old man's lips began to tremble, "Yes, yes … there is such a thing?"
"Then isn't our human race in danger?"
When Xiang Nan saw that the situation was not good, he lied a little too much. If he scared the fat old man later, he wouldn't be in the mood to repair his mask.
"Don't worry, Elders. There shouldn't be many of those demons, and they are only at the Good Fortune Realm."
"Didn't I personally kill one? It's nothing special."
Hearing this, the two elders were skeptical, but they were much more relieved in their hearts.
"A miracle." The fat old man put on his black gloves and held the magic crystal in his hand. No matter what, he couldn't appreciate it enough.
"A miracle! It's really a miracle!"
"This magic crystal is like a fantasy. It seems real and fake, but it really contains the power of a demon. It's really … really rare in this world."
"Then will you help me?" Xiang Nan smiled.
The fat old man smiled happily, "Little friend's magic crystal has opened my eyes. If you are willing to give this magic crystal to me, I will help you."
