The One and the Only Chapter 19: Checking the Gains

Collecting the Blood Lilies and killing the robber Kuang Yang, two spiritual stone tasks accomplished.

And there was the last one-to kill the Ink Flame Tiger.

He had accomplished the former two tasks within a month.

For Lin Yun, he still had a lot of time.

Now he could check out the Storage Bag he took from Kuang Yan and see what was inside.

Actually compared with his spoils of war, Lin Yun was more interested in the Storage Bag.

There was a mustard space, which looked seemingly small but could store a lot of stuff.

So for Lin Yun who often wandered around, it'd be much more convenient for him.

The Storage Bag was extremely precious. One couldn't buy one in Skywater Kingdom even he had money.

Kuang Yan must have killed some sect disciple from a noble family and got this bag. And now Lin Yun became its new owner.

Buzz!

He dipped his hand into the bag with his inner power. Lin Yun saw the mustard space in the bag.

It was not quite spacious, almost equal to an ordinary guest room.

Inside it was piled with a lot of gold, silver and all kinds of treasure, whose light even made people dazzled.

Lin Yun didn't care about those vulgarians at all.

But the lower grade spiritual stones on top attracted his attention.

He counted. There were nearly 1500 pieces.

 "Holy shit! Its owner is really rich."

Lin Yun heaved a sigh. The reward for killing Kuang Yan was only 500 pieces of spiritual stones.

Kuang Yang might have already disposed those stolen goods in White Water Town. No wonder so many people even tried to risk their lives to be robbers.

But finally he was brought to justice after having done so many bad things.

Before he tried to leave, Lin Yun ended his life. He died in the right path.

Except some spiritual stones and treasures, there was also some pills and elixirs.

Elixirs!

Lin Yun's eyes shined. But after checking it out, he was disappointed. It was all low quality elixirs, no match to the ones the sects made.

 "Blood Refining Elixir!"

Lin was a little astonished on seeing a Blood Refining Elixir. That was something good.

The Blood Lilies he collected were the main ingredients for refining Blood Refining Elixirs.

To practice one's muscles on the fourth level of Martial Practice, Body Refining Elixir worked the best.

Although the Body Refining Elixir still worked to practice one's qi and blood on the fifth level of Martial Practice, it couldn't compare with the Blood Refining Elixir at all.

Lin Yun kept searching and then found some martial arts scripts at one corner.

He was a little obsessed, and took them out.

 "Mountain Cracking Saberplay is a kind of superb martial art. Once someone displays it, its power is super strong and tough that even could cut the mountain open."

It should be the martial art Kuang Yan practiced. But before he used it, Lin Yun had already killed him.

Lin Yun used a sword, so he was no interested in it. There was another one.

 "Wild Goose Script. A superior lightness skill. Once one could practice it to the highest level, one can jump over ten meters high, like the wild goose flying in the sky."

There was a flash in Lin Yun's eyes. So this explained why Kuang Yan could escape every time after having committed a crime.

Now he had his fist skills, the Pure Yang inner power and the swordplay.

He only didn't master a lightness skill. So he had no choice but to let that man from Yun Family run away.

Now this just made up for his shortage.

It was said one could fly in the sky like the wild goose, which might be exaggerating. But at least he could jump over ten meters high and improve his dodging and fighting speed at least.

Among all Kuang Yang's things, he was most satisfied with the Wild Goose Script.

After putting away the evil beast parts, his belongs and the Blood Lilies in his bag, Lin Yun began strolling in the town.

He still had a whole month for the last spiritual stone task of killing the Ink Flame Tiger.

Since having been here in the White Water Town, of course he should have some fun, and sell those evil beast parts by the way.

After getting a little tired, Lin Yun came to one of the biggest shops-Treasure Chamber.

On seeing him wearing the robe of Qingyun Sect, a servant immediately came to welcome him.

Sect disciples were those shops' biggest customers. They must serve them well.

 "Young hero, what can I do for you?"

 "I've got some evil beast parts here, um…and a martial art script.

On hearing evil beast parts, the servant was still smiling. But when hearing there was also a martial art script, his expression immediately changed. "What level is it?"

 "Superior martial art."

 "Please come with me."

The servant directly showed Lin Yun to a private room on the second floor, and said while smiling, "Wait a second. I'll ask the boss here."

About fifteen minutes later, the servant came back with a fat middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked Lin Yun up and down, and then said with a smile on his face, "I am Tong Hu. You can call me Tong. So you have a superior martial art script to sell?"

Martial art was basis of a kung fu practitioner, let alone a superior martial art.

But to sell a martial art script was rather sensitive. Boss Tong looked at Lin Yun and said, "Let me put it this way. We don't collect any martial art script of any sect."

The martial art was the basis of a sect.

If it was leaked, it'd be a big crime. One would be sentenced to death whatever his position was.

The four sects were the most powerful forces in the whole Skywater Kingdom. So as a businessman, of course he knew he shouldn't offend them.

 "Don't worry. I bet you have heard of this one."

Then Lin Yun took out the Mountain Cracking Saberplay.

On seeing the name of the script, Tong Hu's face was a little twisted, with his eyes full of astonishment.

Lin Yun showed a little complacent expression in his eyes. Even if he knew it belonged to Kuang Yan, he shouldn't have such dramatic reaction.

Since the boss overacted about this, was is possible Kuang Yang had sold the booties to him?  

That would be interesting.

But even so, Lin Yun was not afraid he'd defraud him, after all he was from Qingyun Sect.

All businessmen were slippery.

 "Hahaha, you are a true hero. You even killed Kuang Yang the robber."

The expression on Tong Hu's face immediately went back to normal. Then he laughed and praised Lin Yun.

Smart as he was, the moment he saw the script, he should have known that Kuang Yan had been dead.

 "What is your name, young hero?"

Tong Hu, who had taken Lin Yun as a cold fish, now said seriously.

"I'm Lin Yun, outer disciple of Qingyun Sect. Boss Yong, give a price."                 

Now Tong Hu regained his nature color of a businessman. After thinking for a moment, he muttered, "Fixed price, 1,000 lower quality spiritual stones."

 "Farewell."

Lin Yun put it away and got up to leave.

 "Childe Lin, wait a sec. We can talk…"

Tong Hu's expression changed. He promptly grasped Lin Yun with a forced smile, "Childe Lin, don't be so resolute. I can add two hundred spiritual stones at most."

On seeing Lin Yun's expression remained unchanged, Tong Hu gritted his teeth, "1,500 lower spiritual stones, and that's all I can pay."

Actually, Lin Yun knew a superior martial script was worth a lot, but he had no idea how much it was really worth.

But he knew that all businessmen were crafty. They claimed to buy at bad bargain, which was totally a lie.

He just wanted to have a try. Actually he was already very satisfied with the price.

 "Boss Tong, didn't you say fixed price?"

Lin Yun sat down again and asked gently.

Tong Hu didn't feel awkward at all. He said with a smile, "You will earn your name in the martial art world. And this is the first time we do business, I should show some sincerity."

That was really nice to hear, but Lin Yun didn't give it a shit. He took out the gall, the fangs and the blood line of the Bloody Flame Snake.

When he saw the gall and the fangs, Tong Hu looked quite calm.

But when Lin Yun took out the blood line of the Bloody Flame Snake, his eyes nearly popped out. He immediately took it in his hands.

 "This is the Bloody Flame Bone!"

Lin Yun looked at it curiously. It was only as thick as the little finger, and quite soft. How could it be called Bloody Flame Bone?

 "Dude, you have no idea of its value. The blood line of the back of the Bloody Flame Snake was its cartilage, extremely precious. I really have no idea how you obtained it. Even those at the ninth level couldn't make it."

Tong Hu looked at Lin Yun, with a surprising expression.

 "Is it so hard?"

 "Of course. Although it is not at a very high level, if one wants to get its Bloody Flame Bone, one has to kill it in an instant. One second late, its Bloody Flame Bone would burn to ashes. That is really hard. You might only have one chance out of ten."

Lin Yun suddenly remembered that among the evil beast parts the two kung fu masters of Yun Family, there were no Bloody Flame Bone.

 "It is the key ingredient for forging the spiritual weapon Bloody Flame Amor. Well, two months later, there will be a big auction in the town. If you trust me, I will take it to the auction. If it's sold, you only need pay me 10% as the agency fee. What do you think?"

Tong Hu now became quite serious, which showed the value of the Bloody Flame Bone.

Spiritual Weapon!

It was the key ingredient to forge the Bloody Flame Armor! This was really out of Lin Yun's expectation.

On seeing Lin Yun keep in silence, Tong Hu murmured, "Dude, I don't know how you made it. But if you take ten Bloody Flame Bones, it may be too attention-getting."

He was implying that Lin Yun would meet trouble at the auction with those Bloody Flame Bones for his level.

Now Lin Yun understood this all owed to the Flower Burial Sword.

 "But how can you make me trust you?"

Tong Hu said with a forced smile, "I can't promise you anything. Besides, you wouldn't believe a businessman's words. But you have no choice. A person who could kill Kuang Yan, I believe you should have the guts to trust me."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yun thought he was right.

It was like a gamble. If he succeeded, he would make a great fortune.

 "OK, I trust you. I will leave five in your hands. Two months later, I will give you the rest."

Although he agreed, Lin also made a reservation.

Tong Hu said, "For the other ingredients and the Mountain Cracking Saberplay, I will give you 2,000 lower spiritual stones."

Lin Yun left with some expectations. The boss sent him out in person.

Not long after he went in the street, Lin Yun noticed that the crowd were all running towards the one direction.

Out of curiosity, Lin stopped a passer-by and asked, "What's going on? Why are you all in such a hurry?"

 "Are you crazy?"

The passer-by was very angry. But when he saw Lin Yun's robe of Qingyun Sect, he looked much gentle now, "Your young master and the No.1 master of Ziyan Sect are having a fight in the east of the town. Don't you know?"
