Lin Shen was a little surprised and immediately became interested.

“The Xuandu Token can be traded?”

Lian Xi was stunned, not expecting Lin Shen to ask such a question.

However, he was immediately overjoyed. It seemed that this young man wasn't very familiar with the Xuandu Meeting. It was probably his first time participating. It was just right. It would be much easier to control him like this.

Suppressing the joy in his heart, he smiled and said,

“Of course. The Xuandu Meeting only recognizes tokens and not the user. The Mystic Spirit Sect didn't explicitly forbid participants from trading in private. Even if the people from the heretic sects come here, as long as they have the Xuandu Tokens, the Mystic Spirit Sect won't stop them.”

Lin Shen was enlightened.

Neither Qu Ke nor Shen Zening mentioned this when they were chatting earlier.

Lin Shen wondered if they also didn't know or if they felt that there was no need to mention this.

“Buddy, how is it? Can you sell us the Xuandu Token?” Lian Xi asked again in a hurry.

Lin Shen didn't answer. Instead, he asked unhurriedly, “How did you know that I have the Xuandu Token?”

Lian Xi was a little impatient, but for the sake of the Xuandu Token, he still answered Lin Shen.

“The cultivators who hold the Xuandu Token are personally led here by the Mystic Spirit Sect disciples. I happened to see two Mystic Spirit Sect disciples bringing you and your companions over just now, so 1 knew that you must have the Xuandu Token on you.”

After explaining, Lian Xi anxiously asked about the deal.

“What do you plan to exchange with me for the Xuandu Token?”

Seeing that Lin Shen was tempted, Lian Xi was overjoyed. His eyes darted around as he raised a finger.

“How about ten inferior-grade spirit stones?”

Lin Shen rolled his eyes and was about to close the door.

Actually, he wasn't deliberately teasing the two people.

If they could really afford the price, he didn't mind giving up the Xuandu Token.

For example, if he could exchange 20 to 30 drops of Mystic Essence Liquid, it would be fine if he didn't participate in the Xuandu Meeting. He could even save a month.

However, these two people were clearly insincere.

Ten inferior-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for two drops of Mystic Essence Liquid at most.

They wanted these to exchange for the Xuandu Token with Lin Shen. They were clearly treating him as a fool who was easy to trick!

Seeing that Lin Shen was about to close the door, Lian Xi hurriedly reached out to stop him and said, “Wait a minute. Don't shut us out. If you think the price is too low, we can bargain. How about fifteen inferior-grade spirit stones?”

Lin Shen shook his head.

He wasn't a cultivator master yet, so spirit stones weren't of much use to him.

The most important thing now was to let his clone condense more spirit meridians so that he could break through the bottleneck to become a cultivator master.

Therefore, unless it was the Mystic Essence Liquid, he wouldn't even bat an eyelid even if dozens of inferior-grade spirit stones were placed in front of him.

Seeing that Lin Shen wasn't tempted at all, Lian Xi gritted his teeth and said, “Name a price!”

Lin Shen glanced at him and said calmly, “Thirty drops of Mystic Essence Liquid.”

“Thirty drops…”

Lian Xi's expression changed, and he almost cursed aloud.

If he could come up with 30 drops of Mystic Essence Liquid, would he need to spend so much effort to covet the Xuandu Token?

Lian Xi finally understood that this brat clearly didn't want to sell the Xuandu Token.

The smile on Lian Xi's face disappeared, and his expression became a little gloomy.

He glanced at Lin Shen and said with a fake smile,

“Buddy, judging from your age, you must have just condensed a spirit meridian, right?

“There are all kinds of people around Xuandu Mountain now. Countless people are secretly coveting the Xuandu Token. Every day, someone is attacked. Not only was the Xuandu Token snatched away, but they were also seriously injured. It's a tragic sight!

“With your strength, I'm afraid it won't be easy to protect the Xuandu Token. In my opinion, you should sell the Xuandu Token to us and exchange it for some essence stones. At least you won't end up with nothing!”

Toward the end, Lian Xi's tone carried a trace of coldness.

Luo Deng, who was beside him, also let out a cold snort and revealed an unfriendly gaze.

Lin Shen couldn't help but laugh. It turned out that they were being polite before resorting to force.

He asked with a smile, “If I don't give you the Xuandu Token, are you going to rob me later?”

Lian Xi and Luo Deng were stunned when they heard this.

They had thought that Lin Shen would either cower in fear or fly into a rage after hearing what they said. However, not only was he not afraid or angry at all, he would even point out their dark plans with a smile.

Why didn't this person play by the rules?

Lian Xi didn't know how to react for a moment.

Even if he had such thoughts, he couldn't say these things openly. Who would say in front of their target that they wanted to rob them?

“Brother Xi!” Luo Deng saw that Lian Xi was in a daze and couldn't help but push his shoulder.

Lian Xi seemed to have woken up from a dream. He cleared his throat and squeezed out a smile.

“Buddy, you must be joking. We're decent people. How can we do something that hurts people behind their backs? I'm just reminding you out of kindness.”

Lin Shen gave him a long look and waved his hand. “There's no need for you to worry. Is there anything else? If there's nothing else, please leave. I'm going to rest.”

Lian Xi's smile froze, and he was speechless.

Seeing this, Lin Shen closed the door without another word.

Lian Xi and Luo Deng were stunned on the spot.

“Brother…”

Luo Deng opened his mouth to speak, but he was stopped by a look from Lian Xi.

The two of them left the house and walked to a secluded place. Only then did Lian Xi smash a rock beside him with his palm, his face filled with anger?

“Damn brat, how dare he toy with me!”

Luo Deng leaned over and whispered fiercely, “Brother Xi, shall we take him out?”
