Chapter 189: Too Slow

    

ere's the translation:Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!"I think that over these two days, Jing Guo should also be actively looking for substitutes, finding another inn...Regardless of what others bid, here we add another thousand Dao Yuan stones. Such a lavish and generous offer is enough to deter most competitors. Zhong Xuan Sheng is precisely using this strategy to "deter" anyone else who might be interested in the Qishu Flower.

This is a very short and simple request! Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated. I can handle much longer pieces as well.

When the selling price reached 300,000 and one thousand Dao Yuan stones, the voice of a guard outside suddenly rang out: "Ai ai, Master Bao, stop!"

The front door was kicked open with a thud, and Bao Zhongqing strode into the inner room.

"Fatass, I knew it was you!"

The attendants of the Treasure Pavilion had deliberately revealed their identities beforehand, giving Chong Xuan Sheng time to react. They couldn't stop Bao Zhongqing anyway, so this was all they could do.

But Chongxuan didn't react at all, still lying languidly on the soft chair, too lazy even to move his buttocks. He just raised a hand: "Hello, Baomazi."

Bao Zhongqing's face was contorted with anger: "Are you deliberately targeting me You know I'm here, right Do you want to disgust me Are you intentionally driving up my price"

Behind him were also old acquaintances, the Over-the-Sea Hand Yan Er and the Twin Assassins of Pingshi. Apparently, they had made some progress during this time, and as soon as they entered the room, they looked at Jiang Wang, with a look that seemed to want to avenge their past humiliation.

While Jiang Wang was still pondering the matter of the Performance Stage, he had no time to deal with this farce. He casually snapped out a firework, which exploded silently in the air. The flames didn't dissipate, but instead intertwined, transforming into a fiery sparrow. The exquisitely animated firebird flapped its wings and landed on Jiang Wang's outstretched finger, bowing its head and smoothing its feathers.

Jiang Wang reached out and grasped the flamebird, crushing it in his palm.

Yann Er and Ping Xi's dual evil spirits instantly retracted their gazes, bowing their heads respectfully, behaving very obediently.

Jiang Wang's display of mastery over the Fire Walking Technique was astonishing. Their progress was evident, but Jiang Wang's advancement was even more terrifying. Back at Xia Shan Villa, they had managed to exchange a few moves with Jiang Wang, but now they probably wouldn't even be qualified to fight him!

Before exploring the Fire Totem and practicing the Huo Yuan Canon, Jiang Wang certainly couldn't control it to this extent. His battle with Zuo Guangshu also gave him great enlightenment.

But he was only doing this to avoid trouble. He had already beaten Bao Zhongqing, and there was no motivation to beat him again.

After displaying such a hand, he continued his thoughts.

Hundreds of Dao Yuan Stones were smashed, and the secret arts they yielded only exchanged for 65 points of Dharma, barely bringing the total to 2,300.

But setting aside the rare ones, these techniques are simply not worth much. The rules of Tai Xu Huan Jing's Dao Stage clearly encourage innovative techniques and spells.

Meanwhile, the "clash" between top sons of noble families in Linzi continues.

Facing Bao Zhongqing's imposing manner, Chongxuan smiled and asked, "Can't afford it anymore Running out of money, Master Bao"

The provocative words instead calmed Bao Zhongqing down. Especially in his eyes, there was a glint of understanding; he knew Jiang Wang's strength had surpassed that of last time and that his men stood no chance against him.

Of course, he didn't show any fear on his face. He just coldly said, "It seems that fighting Wang Yiwu this time has made you richer than before. You're no longer participating in a singing competition with empty hands"

He was poking at Chong Xuan Sheng's "old wounds." Chong Xuan Sheng had once participated in an auction and, when he encountered something he liked, declared that he would definitely get it. However, he was driven away by someone who used a Dao Yuan stone to attack him. That incident also became one of the evidences that Chong Xuan Sheng was not taken seriously.

The Bau and Chong families had been feuding for generations, each adept at "mutual harm."

"Four hundred thousand Dao Yuan stones!" Bao Zhongqing shouted.

The waiter serving him immediately updated the price list, and the other waiter, who was serving Chong Xuan Sheng, glanced at Chong Xuan Sheng before adding another thousand without hesitation.

Life extending treasures are divided into two types: those that can transcend one's lifespan and those that cannot. The former, of course, is far more valuable than the latter, and also much rarer to find.

All humans have a lifespan, but because of illness, wear and tear, etc., almost no one can live to their full lifespan. Common longevity artifacts are essentially "making up" for the lost lifespan. Things like the Longevity Pills and Life Fruits that Jiang Wang has taken are examples of this.

If one's lifespan were lacking ten years, eating twenty years' worth of longevity fruit would only make up for those ten years. It would be impossible to exceed one's lifespan.

The cockscomb flower also belongs to this type. Although it is also very valuable, the current price has exceeded too much.

Sometimes during a sale, this kind of thing happens. The buyer gets competitive and loses their temper, spending lavishly. They're fighting for face, they don't care how much the item is actually worth; they just want to feel like they've overpowered the other party.

Now Bao Zhongqing and Chong Xuan Sheng seem to be like this.

But Bao Zhongqing suddenly grinned slyly: "I give it to you! The Chongxuan family is wealthy and powerful, so what's wrong with being a big fool I can send people to buy it from Dongwanggu, it won't take twenty million Dao Yuan stones!"

He wanted to buy seven-spike lilies to win over a tribal elder. The seven-spike lilies in Dongwanggu were limited every year, of course it was not easy to buy. But with some premium, someone would always be willing to sell them.

Now it seems more like he took advantage of Chongxuan's disagreement with him, and casually tricked Chongxuan.

However, he didn't know that the buyer and seller of this "Qishuihua" were actually both Chongxuan himself. The Dao Yuanshi he truly had to pay out wasn't much...

Only your Bao family would care about this small amount of money. I like it, so I buy it, that's all there is to it. Even if a dog was bidding against me, I'd still fight for it.

This is the end of the paragraph.

ZHONG Xuan, with a nonchalant air, said lightly, “Anyway, your carriages and horses just cost me a fortune.”

In a single sentence, he once again ignited Bao Zhongqing's fury.

Bowu's carriage business suffered a significant loss because Su She suddenly went mad outside Linzi City, losing a large sum of money inexplicably.

His face then grew utterly gloomy: “It seems you have plenty of energy now, don’t you”

At this time, the price of 400,000 and one Dao Yuan Stone has already ended in three rounds of bidding. The ownership of "Qiushihua" is now determined.

"No need to trouble yourself." Chongxuan glanced at the Shuiyue Mirror. "Anything else"

Bao Zhongqing said no more, and with a flick of his sleeve, he left.

The staff of the treasure house quickly tidied up the door and brought "Qiuhua" over.

Zhong Xuan Sheng casually handed the "Qishui Hua" to Jiang Wang, who then pretended to chew and swallow a few mouthfuls.

"How are you" Zhongxuan asked.

"The effect is very good!" Jiang Wang said with satisfaction.

Actually, there's no effect at all.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

“Then let’s go.” Chongxuan thus got up.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ignoring the people at the Treasure Pavilion, the three of them left. Someone else will take over Dao Yuan Stone later.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Thus, the process of Jiang Wang's lifespan supplementation became crystal clear, standing up to any scrutiny. As long as there were no issues on Tian and her side, Tian Anping shouldn't be able to suspect him again.

After leaving the treasure house, in the carriage.

"What riddles were you just playing with Bao Zhongqing" Jiang Wang couldn't help but ask.

This is a test.

Chong Xuan was slightly surprised to see him: “Even you’ve noticed”

Jiang Wang: …

"Don't you think it's a bit unfair of me to beat you up now" Jiang Wang asked.

This tag is used to close a paragraph.

“Hahaha.” Chongxuan patted his chest with a smug smile, laughing as he explained, “He offered to help me wipe out Chongxuan Zun's business completely. His condition was that he wanted a share of the profits, but I refused!”

Now that the Jubao Merchant Guild is in ruins, Wang Yiwu has turned to defense and wants to get involved, but it's already too late.

Especially in Bao Zhongqing's view, Wang Yiwu could still hold on for a long time. But from Chongxuan Sheng's perspective, everything was ready and only the east wind was missing. At this juncture, there was no need to risk introducing more people to share the pie, especially members of the Bao family.

Jiang Wang looked thoughtful: "You made a secret alliance"

"How is that possible! With the relationship between our two families, an alliance would be cutting off our own escape route. It's just a tacit understanding." Zhong Xuan Sheng said lazily, "Two early fringe figures have always maintained this kind of understanding."

A carriage drove through the bustling city of Linzi, the clamor of the world endlessly pressing in.

But the carriage was very quiet.

“Too slow.” Chong Xuan said suddenly.

Jiang Wang knew what he was saying, but remained silent.

>

Yes, it's been dragging on for too long.

Zhong Xuan Zun has been at the Jixia Academy for too long!

Zhong Xuan's ability to respond appropriately and eventually turn defense into offense, securing the advantage, is all based on Zhong Xuan being unable to directly intervene.

And no one can say when he will be able to come out.

"Too slow."

At this time, on Xiao Lianqiao, which was called Bai Shi Street, another voice also said so.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

The speaker was Zhao Xuan, who had a well-groomed beard and one could see from his eyebrows and eyes that he had been handsome in his youth.

He was a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Rites, but with little actual power. His role was to oversee funeral rites for government officials. Generally, this meant guiding officials of different ranks on the proper procedures to follow during mourning periods, and sometimes even assisting with the arrangements.

Logically speaking, with his rank of fourth grade official, he should delegate trivial matters to deputy officials and clerks. Officials of his caliber rarely handle things personally.

But he was different.

He is very conscientious in his work. Even for small matters like choosing the materials for a coffin and preparing funeral robes, he often takes care of them personally. In his long tenure at the Ministry of Rites, he has never made a mistake.

He made great contributions to the state of Qi. It was he who strongly advocated for connecting Yang's national protective formation with Qi's, so that both states could share weal and woe, honor and disgrace, achieving "lasting peace."

Shortly after the matter was settled, he moved his family to Qi State and took a position in the Ministry of Rites.

Although Qi treated him well in terms of official rank and salary, he didn't actually have much real power. Even his subordinates weren't very obedient to him. Many times, the people of Qi had a sense of superiority over the people from Yang.

Many people say that Zhao Xuan is so cautious because he is from Yang Guo.

Of course, there is no Yang Kingdom now.

Without Yang Guo, it means he can now be a true Qi person and gain more trust from the Qi court... There is a chance to grasp real power.

Like him, someone in their late forties, strong and healthy, whose cultivation level matches their official rank, sometimes all they need is an opportunity.

Now many people have started to work hard on his neglected projects, almost turning them into thriving ones. However, he still remains as diligent and dedicated as ever.

Once again, I came to Xiao Lianqiao and personally inspected the funerary objects for the deceased eunuch who had passed away two days prior.

This old eunuch had no power, and nobody fawned over him in life. After his death, nobody even cared. But he did hold a position, so his funeral had to be done according to protocol.

"Sir, it was already painted last night, just waiting for it to dry. It will be delivered soon!"

In Old Zhang's coffin shop, Old Zhang said flatteringly.

His voice was thin and cold, even when he tried to be pleasant, it didn't feel very warm.

Zhao Xuan has always been very patient, but for some reason, he felt inexplicably uneasy today.

"Hurry up!" he urged.sky more vast and the sunlight brighter, as if everyone is bathed in a brilliant world, momentarily forgetting their worries.A white ox, tens of meters tall, slowly walked over at this time.It should...
