The heatwave is very magical making Lu Yun feel refres.h.i.+ng and clear-minded.
Lu Zixuan turns over several pages too, but Lu Yun finds nothing strange in her expressions. For a time, there was an incomprehensible feeling coming to him.
"Lu Yun, I think the opening of this volume is very good!" Lu Zixuan whispers to Lu Yun"s ear, "It seems that the boss does not know much about the book. This is a human-level method of superior quality!"
"It is good." Lu Yun says.
He says that it"s good, referring to the strange feeling he had. But 500 silver coins for the book is too much since it is incomplete.
The shop owner says with his face melting in smiles, "How is it?"
"Not so good," Lu Yun says coldly, "I give only 50 silver coins for this volume."
Lu Zixuan is astonished to see that Lu Yun offers 50 silver coins to buy a human-level method of superior quality, even in an air leaving no room for bargaining.
The boss is now violently trembling. He looks at Lu Yun’s eyes and knows that this young man must have seen what is tricky.
Offering 50 silver coins? What does it mean? It means that Lu Yun knows that he is cheating on him, but he does not debunk it. There are still people in the store. If he is exposed by Lu Yun, he can no longer do business in the City.
"Sure! Seeing your promising future, I am to sell it to you for 50!" The store owner sells the broken volume to Lu Yun regardless of the others looking at them in astonishment.
The shop owner suffers losses? Lu Yun has already shown his mercy!
Lu Zixuan is inexplicably happy. She cannot see the depth in the 50 silver coins. But she knows that Lu Yun is definitely taking advantage of it and feels very happy.
Lu Yun is also very satisfied. Although it costs him 50 silver coins. There is a hidden mystery in the volume. This is the real reason why he paid for it.
"Mr. Yuan, has the thing I ordered delivered?"
With a sweet voice coming into the store, a girl in yellow enters.
She is a spicy girl with shoulder-length hair, big eyes, long and slim eyebrows and seductive red lips. Her figure is already very hot in spite of her age. Besides, her see-through dress vaguely reveals her underwear and her delicate skin.
She enters arrogantly but pauses a moment at seeing Lu Zixuan.
However, this hesitation quickly converges. Wriggling her waist, she comes to the counter, with elbows on the counter and hands under her chin, asks in a seducing tone, "Mr. Yuan, how about what I want?"
The bystanders cannot help swallowing their saliva. What a figure! Imagine how seducing she will be when she is a bit older. Judging from her dress, everyone can see that she is either rich or from an elite family.
Lu Zixuan looks at Lu Yun subconsciously, finds that Lu Yun is looking at herself and she is secretly very pleased.
The store owner says with amazement, "Miss, where are your bodyguards?"
"I don"t want them to follow, a group of annoying chumps. They were outwitted by me..." the girl in yellow says impatiently, "Never mind, how about the thing I want?"
"It"s here." The store owner takes out a box from the back room. "It is inside."
The girl in yellow smiles, "If my mother asks about it someday, tell her that you sold a piece of ancient jade to me."
"Yes, Miss!" Mr. Yuan says.
The girl in yellow reaches for her purse and pays the store owner 1,000 gold coins.
"She is so generous." Lu Yun thinks, "she might be the owner"s daughter of the city of Yidong."
Mr. Yuan says in a hurry, "Miss, 900 is enough."
"The rest is for you, remember to keep it a secret! On grandfather"s birthday, I want to give him a surprise. When he is happy, it is quite possible that he pa.s.ses on his skills to me!"

When the girl mentions her grandfather, there appears a great change in the store owner"s expressions. Presumably, the grandfather is someone very important.
After receiving the box, the girl in yellow cannot help giving a glance at Lu Zixuan and then leaves the store.
Perhaps she realizes that she is not the fairest at the presence of Lu Zixuan.
Lu Zixuan doesn"t notice it and continues selecting what they want to buy with Lu Yun. After going around in the shop and buying several small gadgets, they leave with satisfaction.
The night fells when they are out. It is time to go home. There is a carriage at the city gate.
The two reluctantly come out of the city gate and walk toward the driver.
Suddenly, a scream comes from the city.
A man das.h.i.+ng in a hurry, chased by the girl in yellow yelling "Catch the thief!", pa.s.ses by Lu Yun.
"Wait for me here." Lu Yun says and runs after them.
Because it is to catch an ordinary thief, Lu Zixuan leaves the opportunity for Lu Yun. She also feels that if Lu Yun can help the girl in yellow, it might be good for him in the future. She decides to stay where she is.
Lu Yun quickly catches up with the girl in yellow. She is only a second-level commoner of the Mystery. It is not easy for her to catch up with the thief. Lu Yun grabs her hand and runs after the thief.
The thieve sees that they are about to catch up and plunges into the woods. Lu Yun accelerates using his martial art skills. They easily catch up with them although Lu Yun lends part of his energy to the girl helping her to run faster.
Suddenly, the thief stops. Lu Yun notices the weirdness, wants to bring the girl to run in the opposite direction, but there are two more people behind them. Their cultivation is not high, only three-level commoners of the Mystery.
"Miss Chen, your daddy can never believe that it is the people like us who are responsible for catching you," the thief said insidiously.
"What do you want to do! If my daddy knows about it, you will surely die a graveless death!" The girl shouts but without much confidence.
"Haha! We just want to let your daddy know! Otherwise, it will be meaningless to catch you!" The thief sneers. "Catch the girl! Kill the guy in the way!"
The girl pushes Lu Yun very loyally and says, "You run!"
But the three have already surrounded, it is too late for them to run.
The girl in yellow says in a panic, "What to do!"
"Lend me your knife!" Lu Yun says, reaching out and drawing out the girls saber.
Lu Yun holds the sword and stands in front of the three people.
"Kill him!"
The two people behind Lu Yun attacks first. They use short swords, very ferocious.
"The Descending Black Dragon!" Lu Yun sways the saber with overwhelming momentum.
"clang!"
He blocks the attack of the two men and continues to play the Descending Black Dragon. The powerful wind produced by the move directly knocks back the thieves and makes them stagger back several steps.
All three are stunned. The young man is not very high in cultivation, but he has reached the acme of perfection in his last move.
This time Lu Yun takes the initiative to attack without any hesitation by employing the Descending Black Dragon. With his vital energy condensed at the tip of the saber, he seems to hack vertically, but changes to cut horizontally all of sudden. The three were all caught off guard.
Lu Yun follows immediately with another move named the Fairy Dragon. It is a move with such complicate variations that his three opponents were dumfounded while Lu Yun"s courage mounts as the battle progresses. With his fierce and flawless attacks, the three have to give ground continuously.
Subsequently, Lu Yun’s suppression became more and more fierce. One of them fails to resist and dies under Lu Yun"s saber.
The other two want to escape. Lu Yun immediately follows with a merciless sway and cut the throat of them both!
