Chapter 232 Trading
The stove on the table is chirping non-stop, the green smoke from the purple clay pot on the stove is curling up, and a tempting fresh fragrance comes out from the purple clay pot, filling the whole space, stepping into this room, the whole person is refreshed. They will be unconsciously excited.

A young woman was kneeling on the inside of the long table. She was wrapped in a long purple dress. Her exquisite curves were very obvious, and her figure was quite perfect. Coupled with her youthful and charming face, she definitely deserved it. The name of beauty.

Quiet room, fragrant tea, beauties...

This was an excellent match, but Gu Cheng was not in a very happy mood at the moment. On the contrary, his brows were furrowed and his expression was quite solemn at this moment.

It can be seen that his mood is not that happy, and he doesn't even try to hide it, and he doesn't have the slightest excitement to see the so-called old man.

"How did you come?"

After a long silence, Gu Cheng finally couldn't help raising his head, and asked coldly.

"Hehe, you still can't help asking? I thought how long you could endure..." The man opposite smiled, and instead of answering Gu Cheng's question, he asked tit for tat, "Why can't I come here?"

"You came all the way here to invite me to drink tea? It's really leisurely. But thanks, I really don't dare to drink your tea." Gu Cheng suddenly smiled too, but the smile was very cold. He didn't hide the sarcasm in his eyes.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but this one in front of you, came here just to treat him to tea?Hehe, even if Gu Cheng was beaten to death, he would never believe it.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first, no need to send him off!" As he spoke, Gu Cheng quickly stood up. Although he had just entered the box not long ago, facing the person in front of him, he really was in no mood to stay any longer. And in his opinion, there is really nothing to talk about between the two of them.

It might be impolite to do so, but facing the person in front of him, Gu Cheng didn't think he needed to be polite.

Because the person sitting in front of him making tea is none other than the princess of the overseas dragon clan who chased and killed him again and again, Ao Jiaojiao.

The first time was in Devil's Triangle Bay, and the second time was in Changling County of Wei State. Gu Cheng was hunted down by her twice and fled in a hurry.

Of course, Gu Cheng also turned her around twice and forced her into a mess. One time, she was trapped in the Devil's Triangle Bay and almost couldn't get out. The other time, she was almost beheaded on the spot by the Armored Monkey.

Apart from hatred and festivals, there is no other friendship between the two.

If he had known in advance that this so-called "old friend" was referring to Ao Jiaojiao, Gu Cheng would never have come here to have a dinner as a guest.

"It's already here. Even if you don't drink tea, at least sit down. Are you so afraid of me?"

"Since I'm sitting here calmly waiting for you this time, I naturally want to have a good talk with you...and you know my identity. In Fenglin City, I definitely don't intend to fight you, otherwise if I get exposed , the one who suffers will definitely be me." Ao Jiaojiao changed her previous image of impulsiveness, and sat there with a smile on her face, but instead she looked somewhat unpredictable.

Gu Cheng also couldn't help but looked her up and down a few times, as if he had some doubts whether this was the Ao Jiaojiao he knew.

Obviously, Ao Jiaojiao is still the same Ao Jiaojiao, it's just that her performance this time is a bit abnormal.

"What is there to talk about between us?"

Although Gu Cheng said so, he finally sat down again.

Because Ao Jiaojiao's abnormal performance this time really made him a little puzzled.

And what Ao Jiaojiao said is correct, the Central Plains is dominated by human monks, and this Fenglin City is also a fairy city where human monks live. The reason why Ao Jiaojiao, an overseas dragon princess, appeared here must be incognito. If her identity is really exposed, she will suffer a big loss instead.

After all, there are a lot of monks from the Central Plains who are hostile to the Sea Clan. No one can do anything to Ao Jiaojiao when she stays overseas, because overseas is the territory of the Sea Clan, and the Dragon Clan is the leader. But now she has come to the Central Plains. , then the situation becomes very different.

Thinking of this, Gu Cheng couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a sneer,

"You are really courageous. Haven't you thought about the consequences of revealing your identity?"

"And you have to know that the relationship between us has never been very friendly. You are so sure that I will not announce your identity. If it is announced, I believe that there should be many people who are interested. "

Gu Cheng's words sounded like sarcasm, but in the same way, it was also a kind of temptation.

If there is a chance to make some troubles for Ao Jiaojiao, Gu Cheng doesn't mind doing that. As for pity for others or taking advantage of others' dangers, Gu Cheng doesn't care at all, because when dealing with the enemy, there are naturally some means to use, and Ao From Gu Cheng's point of view, Jiaojiao is undoubtedly the enemy.

Thinking of this, Gu Cheng's eyes flickered, as if he was considering how feasible it was to do so.

"You don't need to worry about that."

Ao Jiaojiao glanced at Gu Cheng lightly, taking Gu Cheng's expression into her eyes, she seemed to be able to guess what Gu Cheng was thinking, instead she laughed, and said at the same time, "You are also a smart person, since I dare to appear here, I will I definitely won't make fun of my own life, if you want to make trouble, I'm afraid you will only be disappointed."

"Really?"

Gu Cheng responded lightly, his eyes and pupils froze slightly, vaguely disbelieving.

"I think you can guess the purpose of my coming here. Shui Lingzhu, tell yourself, how can you give it to me?" Ao Jiaojiao is not the kind of person who likes to beat around the bush, and she is too lazy to talk nonsense to Gu Cheng. She quickly asked directly. As for Gu Cheng's other thoughts, she didn't bother to worry about it anymore. As she said, since she dared to appear here, she naturally had something to rely on.

Revealing her identity might cause her some trouble, but it would definitely not bring her life into danger.

This is also the reason why she dared to appear in front of Gu Cheng so openly.

To be honest, with the relationship between her and Gu Cheng, she would not rely on Gu Cheng's so-called character for her life safety.

"Deal? Why, you don't want to grab it from me anymore?"

Gu Cheng sneered, with a sarcasm on his face, he asked back with a sneer unceremoniously.

In fact, Ao Jiaojiao has tried twice to snatch it from him, but it is a pity that both attempts failed completely.

Gu Cheng can predict that Ao Jiaojiao's plan to make this deal now is not only because this is the land of the Central Plains, it is not easy to grab it by force, but the previous two failures probably also accounted for a lot of factors, otherwise Well, there is absolutely no need for her to meet here. Instead, she should change to a place where no one is around, and grab her again.

It's just that she has failed twice, she can no longer treat Gu Cheng as an ordinary Golden Core cultivator, and dare not try again, because after Gu Cheng is prepared, the chance of success is getting smaller every time.

Of course, there are other reasons, but these are not something that Gu Cheng can guess, they just have something to do with Ao Jiaojiao herself.

"Tell me, what exactly do you want in exchange?"

Ao Jiaojiao was too lazy to explain too much, so she asked again.

"As long as you can name it, magic weapons, elixirs, martial arts books, as long as I can get it, I can get it and exchange it with you..." Ao Jiaojiao shrugged, without any hint of coquettishness. Instead, he spoke seriously.

As a dragon princess and a rare genius, Ao Jiaojiao's status in the dragon clan is naturally not low, and the resources she has mastered are even more expensive. Some treasures that ordinary monks desire are really nothing to her. Yes, it's just the water spirit orb, which has a great auxiliary effect on her cultivation.

That's why she kept pestering Gu Cheng from beginning to end, because she knew very well that the Water Lingzhu was in Gu Cheng's hand, and she could even feel that the Water Lingzhu had been refined by Gu Cheng.

"Do you think I'm missing those things?"

Gu Cheng drooped his eyelids, but instead laughed,

"No matter how you say it, the Water Spirit Orb is a treasure of the water system, a magic weapon, a elixir, or a book of exercises. What grade can you give me? Can it match the level of the Water Spirit Orb?" Gu Cheng asked directly.

"This……"

Ao Jiaojiao opened her mouth to explain, but suddenly, she didn't know what to say.

As the treasure of the water system, what grade is the Water Spirit Orb?Naturally, it is the top treasure, but such a treasure is actually only effective for specific talents, not for everyone. Can Ao Jiaojiao give Gu Cheng a treasure of the same level?This is naturally impossible.

Treasures of the highest level can be encountered but not sought after, not to mention that she does not have such a level of treasure in her hand, even if she does have it, it is unlikely to exchange it with Gu Cheng.

Originally, her plan was to exchange some common treasures or spirit stones together. Even if the quantity was larger and the price was higher, she would grit her teeth and agree, but Gu Cheng's words undoubtedly exceeded her expectations.

But think about it, as long as you are not stupid for a treasure like the Water Spirit Orb, how can you agree to exchange it for ordinary things, and Gu Cheng is obviously a shrewd person.

Thinking of this, Ao Jiaojiao couldn't help sighing,

"As far as I know, you are a fire cultivator, even if you have the Water Spirit Orb, it won't be of much use, so why force it in your hands?"

"If you are willing to exchange with me, not only will I not let you suffer, but at the same time, I can also owe you a favor. In the future, as long as you need it, you can ask me for help at any time..."

Ao Jiaojiao raised her head to look at Gu Cheng, and said in a vaguely pleading voice.

But Gu Cheng didn't like her at all, didn't speak, just looked at her with a sneer.

The meaning is obvious, it's fine if there are other people, but Ao Jiaojiao, the feud between the two of them is too deep, Gu Cheng doesn't want to help her at all, let alone make her owe anything.

"I know the news about the Fire Lingzhu."

Ao Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and finally revealed her trump card.

Facing this stubborn guy like Gu Cheng, she really had no other choice.

She knew very well that if it continued like this, it would be difficult to impress Gu Cheng. Only by showing this hole card could there be hope of a deal.

The Water Spirit Orb is actually not very helpful to Gu Cheng, a fire cultivator. At most, it is only slightly helpful, such as in the sea or underwater, but such cases are too rare, and Gu Cheng will not always go into the water without any problems. , and even if there is no water spirit orb, it is likely to have the same effect with other ordinary water treasures.

Using water spirit beads like this is a bit overkill, but there is no way, who made Gu Cheng a fire monk, and the two attributes conflict with each other.

But Fire Lingzhu, that's different...

Judging from Ao Jiaojiao's longing attitude towards the Water Lingzhu, the importance of the Fire Lingzhu to Gu Cheng can be judged.

Hearing this news suddenly, even Gu Cheng couldn't help breathing fast.

"Where did you get the news?"

Gu Cheng suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked Ao Jiaojiao in a deep voice with his expression unchanged.

In fact, what he wants to ask more is, is the source of this news accurate?Don't let him have fun.

When he was in Sunset Mountain, Gu Cheng was still envious of the Purple Gold Furnace of the Purple Mountain Master, but if he could get the Fire Spirit Orb, then he would definitely not need to be envious.

"You don't need to worry about this. I can assure you that the news is absolutely accurate. I wouldn't come here so far to deceive you."

"If you are willing to trade, I can not only tell you the location of the Fire Spirit Orb, but I can even accompany you to get it." Ao Jiaojiao said lightly.

After hearing her words, Gu Cheng couldn't help pondering in his heart.

At the same time, he stared at Ao Jiaojiao, looking at the expression on her face, it didn't seem like she was joking.

Gu Cheng couldn't help hesitating. On the one hand, he didn't want to miss this opportunity, but on the other hand, he was worried that this was deliberately set up by Ao Jiaojiao, and he was just waiting for him to enter the urn.

"How... how can I trust you?"

After a long silence, Gu Cheng finally asked.

At this time, Ao Jiaojiao laughed, and with a wave of her right hand, a scroll with a strange brilliance burst out of the air and landed on the table.

"Contract scroll, you don't believe me, you should believe it?" Ao Jiaojiao asked with a smile.

"Do you have this thing? It seems that you have already prepared it."

"500 million spirit stones, and then you will accompany me to get the Fire Spirit Orb, and the Water Spirit Orb will be yours." Gu Cheng stopped talking and directly stated his own conditions.

Although 500 million spirit stones are quite a lot, it is obvious that they cannot buy water spirit beads. What Gu Cheng wants is actually the latter condition, asking Ao Jiaojiao to accompany him to get the fire spirit beads.

He will only trade out the Water Spirit Orb once he has the Fire Spirit Orb.

But this is a good deal for Ao Jiaojiao, because the Fire Lingzhu is not hers yet, as for the 500 million spirit stones?She didn't pay attention at all.

"No problem." She agreed readily.

"Can I ask, where is the Fire Lingzhu?" After a while, the two reached an agreement and signed a contract, Gu Cheng couldn't help asking.

Ao Jiaojiao raised her head, and slowly uttered three words, "Jiuyou Mountain——"
