What to do? What exactly should I ask for? Money? Xin Yun doesn't lack that. Items? But who knows what this guy has! Perhaps a secret technique for cultivation? But that seems too much of a loss. Should I ask for something else alongside it? Continue reading stories on Freewebnovel
After much contemplation, Xin Yun finally made a decision. The seller's market was now, and looking at Po Kong's gleaming eyes, this guy must be incredibly eager. Since that's the case, let him make the offer. That way, I can find out what he has.
In his reflection, Xin Yun's right hand reached out, and between his lightly held Sword techniques, four Treasure Swords unsheathed with a series of clanging sounds, transforming into red, yellow, blue, and green Sword Qi, shooting towards Po Kong in the sky!

"Ah!" Seeing this scene, all the spectators screamed, thinking that Xin Yun would actually launch an attack on Po Kong without saying a word.
Facing the four Treasure Swords flying towards him, Po Kong's eyes shone even brighter. He could feel that Xin Yun had no intent to kill him, and there was no Sword Qi of murderous intent on the swords. Clearly... Xin Yun must have sensed his love and desire for the four swords, and had sent them over for him to admire.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!" Amidst four crisp clanging sounds, the four Treasure Swords one by one embedded themselves in the ground in front of Po Kong, their blades vibrating with a humming sound, emitting dragon-like roars.
Upon closer inspection, the swords were as wide and as thick as a palm, engraved with ancient Profound Mystery patterns and characters, emanating an old and Primordial World aura so intense that it nearly took one's breath away!
"Good!" Facing the four Treasure Swords, Po Kong couldn't help but cry out, feeling the Sword Intent and Sword Qi from them. Po Kong felt his blood boiling and his hands shaking violently, wishing he could draw them immediately to examine carefully.
However, despite his extreme eagerness, Po Kong couldn't lose his composure in front of so many people. Taking a deep breath, Po Kong looked up at Xin Yun in the field and asked, trembling, "What do you mean by this?"
In response to Po Kong's inquiry, Xin Yun replied with a composed smile, "I can sense your longing and anticipation, so I sent them over for you to take a look, didn't I?"
Hearing Xin Yun's words, Po Kong swallowed hard and continued, "So what if I like them? Are you trying to make me envious?"
"No, no, no..." Shaking his hand hurriedly, Xin Yun shook his head, "I wouldn't do something so boring. I was thinking, since you like them so much, and it's not certain that I have the ability to keep these four swords safe, so... If you truly like them, we can make an exchange."
"Ah!" At this point, all the spectators suddenly understood and exclaimed. Though no one said it out loud, they all secretly thought, this guy is too cunning. By conducting the deal in front of so many people, no one would bother Xin Yun for these swords afterward, and if anyone dared, they'd have to confront Po Kong. Unfortunately, who would dare?
Moreover, everyone had witnessed the power of these four swords. In front of so many people, if Po Kong were really interested, he'd have to offer treasures of equal value in exchange. For the greatest clan of the age, more important than profit were reputation and prestige. Committing despicable acts like bullying and strong-arming would tarnish the Po Kong Clan's honor, something that Po Kong would never dare do. Otherwise, if word got out, the clan would gain a notorious reputation.
Looking at the four swords in front of him, Po Kong couldn't help but smile. He quickly caught onto Xin Yun's motives. In Po Kong's view, Xin Yun must have realized that since the treasures had been revealed, they were no longer safe in his possession. Better to sell them voluntarily than to have them stolen. In a setting like today's, there was no worry that Po Kong wouldn't buy, nor were there concerns about being deceived.
It was a smart move... At least in Po Kong's eyes, Xin Yun undoubtedly made the wisest choice. First, using the four swords to easily defeat Wang Kui, then selling them to Po Kong, eliminating potential trouble while also acquiring treasures. It was foreseeable that soon Xin Yun would make a demand, insisting the Po Kong Clan guarantee the safety of the treasures Xin Yun would receive. If anyone attempted to steal them, the Po Kong Clan would have to intervene, and Po Kong would have to agree. Otherwise, Xin Yun could simply refuse to sell the swords, since they would be stolen anyway.
Po Kong's deductions were very close to the truth, but what he couldn't imagine was that for Xin Yun, the Zhu Xian Four Swords weren't considered rare treasures at all. He could easily produce a dozen more whenever he wished. Right now, Xin Yun was simply considering how to maximize his profit from the exchange. He had no intention of being taken advantage of, a sentiment that held true in his past life and even more so now after being reborn as Hu Chongsheng.
After a long silence, Po Kong was extremely eager to obtain the swords, but he knew that to acquire them, he would have to pay a suitable price. Otherwise, he would bring disgrace to his family. Even if he secured a great deal, he might face punishment from his clan. And if he acted too outrageously, he might even lose his right to inherit the position of clan leader.
Watching Po Kong's furrowed brow, Xin Yun's heart raced. The Po Kong Clan, being the leading clan of the age, might lack many things, but treasures were surely not among them. Each and every one was remarkably powerful. The only question was... whether Po Kong was willing to part with them.
