Chapter 540: 538, Sect Exchange Conference (Part 1)

Others also noticed Ye Shanshan and Zhu Huizhen, and wordlessly shook their heads. This was truly the most rubbish sect they had ever seen.

"What kind of look is that? Why are they staring at us like this?" Ye Shanshan frowned.

"Let’s go inside," Zhu Huizhen said with a look of surprise, pulling Ye Shanshan into the house.

They didn’t understand the law of the jungle that governed the True Cultivation World, although the same situation existed in the ordinary world, it wasn’t as noticeable.

"Fellow Daoist, do you know which sect they are from?" the young girl asked the Ancient Yue Sword Sect disciple who was guiding them.

The guide from the Ancient Yue Sword Sect smiled and shook his head, "I don’t know! It was my fellow brother who guided them earlier."

"Can you help us find another place to stay?" the girl asked again. She really didn’t want to reside with such a sect. If other sects found out, they would definitely think their sect was on the same level as this one.

"This..." The guide from the Ancient Yue Sword Sect hesitated.

"Ling Xi!" the dignified elder called out, his voice tinged with displeasure.

"I was only thinking of our sect’s reputation," mumbled Ling Xi, dropping her head and saying no more.

The elder looked at the guide from the Ancient Yue Sword Sect, "It’s okay, no need to trouble yourself." Although he didn’t like staying with a weaker sect, this was someone else’s territory and he didn’t want to make a fuss since they had arranged it so. And it didn’t matter what others thought of him, as long as their sect could win in the competition, no one would dare to look down on them.

Seeing Zhu Huizhen and Ye Shanshan enter with discontent faces, Luo Shu was somewhat taken aback, "What happened?"

"It’s nothing, just that the people from the sect opposite us seem a bit impolite," Zhu Huizhen said. This was the first time she had been looked at in such a way, and it was quite uncomfortable.

"I was just standing there not bothering them, not provoking them, yet they looked at us as if we’re rats from a sewer, very unpleasant," Ye Shanshan complained.

Luo Shu now understood what had happened, "Most people in the True Cultivation World are like this, they judge others based on their strength, don’t take it to heart." In the True Cultivation World, it was quite normal to kill someone on a whim if you didn’t like them.

"So realistic!" Ye Shanshan said with some disappointment. She had thought the people of the True Cultivation World would be similar to immortals, kindly faced and polite to everyone.

"You’ll get used to it eventually," Luo Shu said reassuringly, smiling. She wasn’t worried about their safety; they both carried talismans she had given them, and any cultivator beyond the Mahayana realm who tried to harm them would be seeking their own death!

Ye Shanshan and Zhu Huizhen nodded. The True Cultivation World did not seem as wonderful as they had imagined, but luckily they were just here to have a look.

As various sects and families arrived one after another, the sect exchange meeting officially commenced.

The first competition on the first day was about Formation. Since the Divine Doctor Family wasn’t participating, Luo Shu took Zhu Huizhen and Ye Shanshan to the trade hall.

In the trade hall, many booths were already set up, displaying items like Spirit Grass, Talisman, and Magic Artifacts, as well as some jewels and jades from the common world.

"Is this a ruby? It’s so beautiful!" Zhu Huizhen exclaimed upon seeing a red crystal stone emitting a bewitching glow, turning her head to ask Luo Shu.

Luo Shu chuckled and shook her head, "That’s a Fire Elemental Crystal, a material for Artifact Refining."

"Oh!" Zhu Huizhen and Ye Shanshan nodded, half-understanding. Today was indeed an eye-opener for them, as many things they had never seen before were now before their eyes in this trade hall.

"May I pick it up to have a look?" Zhu Huizhen inquired of the Cultivator running the booth.

"Of course," the Cultivator replied with a smile. Could he say no? Standing beside them was a powerful being who made him tremble in fear.

"Thank you!" Zhu Huizhen reached out to pick up the Fire Elemental Crystal, examining it in her hands, "It feels a little warm."

Luo Shu turned toward the booth’s Cultivator, "How do you wish to trade?"

The booth’s Cultivator hesitated for a moment and then said, "I would like to exchange for a Nascent Soul Pill." He had been traveling around for years for a Nascent Soul Pill, and although he had been to the True Cultivation World, the price of the Nascent Soul Pill had always been staggering.

He didn’t know Alchemy, so even if he could collect all the Spirit Grass needed to concoct a Nascent Soul Pill, it would be useless because the price to ask a Pill Master to make it was definitely not cheaper than buying one directly.

Luo Shu reached out and handed a Nascent Soul Pill to the booth’s Cultivator.

The Cultivator was taken aback and looked at the Nascent Soul Pill in Luo Shu’s hand excitedly, "This... is this a Nascent Soul Pill?"

"Mhm," Luo Shu nodded.

"Thank you, senior! Thank you, senior!" the booth’s Cultivator said gratefully, looking at Luo Shu. It was wonderful! He could finally advance to Nascent Soul.

Zhu Huizhen watched the scene in stunned silence. Was the deal done just like that?

"Mom! Second Aunt! Let’s go look elsewhere, anything you like just say the word," Luo Shu said generously. She was never stingy with her family.

"Luo Shu, take this," Zhu Huizhen handed the Fire Elemental Crystal to Luo Shu. She had found it pretty and merely wanted a look; she didn’t expect Luo Shu to make a purchase so quickly. She didn’t understand Artifact Refining, and this Fire Elemental Crystal wouldn’t be of any use to her.

"Mom, keep it for yourself. In the winter, if you place it indoors, it will definitely be warmer than a... hearth," Luo Shu chuckled. Though she no longer felt cold after cultivating, having the Fire Elemental Crystal would make things more comfortable.

"Alright then!" Zhu Huizhen no longer demurred, accepting the gift. After all, there’s no need for formality with one’s own daughter-in-law.

The three continued browsing. Although there were many items on display at the booths, none caught Luo Shu’s eye.

A familiar figure caught Luo Shu’s attention.

She saw at a booth not far from her, a Mid Stage Nascent Soul male Cultivator was sitting with closed eyes, in front of him on the booth laid a sheepskin scroll.

Luo Shu’s lips curved slightly; she hadn’t expected to encounter him again after two years. Back then, he and his companion almost took her life over that sheepskin scroll. If it hadn’t been for Yun Han, she would now be a pile of dust.

Approaching, Luo Shu picked up the sheepskin scroll from the booth, "How do you wish to trade?"
