Chapter 739: Trap (2)

After listening to his explanation, although everyone outside had their own thoughts, most of them accepted this explanation.
Big Head Shi smiled contemptuously and said,”I think it’s a good thing to teach these troublemakers a lesson.””
The Venerable looked at Big Head Shi and smiled in satisfaction.
“Fellow Daoist, you’re a reasonable person. If there were more people like you, it would be much easier for our sect to open its doors and do business.”
“Since no one has any doubts, then this transaction will continue. Don’t let that little episode just now dampen your interest.”
The trading session resumed, and the materials area became lively again.
Everyone dispersed and went to the small shops to negotiate the price of the materials they took out.
However, there was one person beside him who kept looking in the direction of the camp. This person was Li Yunqing.
He clearly felt that the fellow was wrapped in the fire cocoon just now, and his Qi stage was already very weak.
It was even possible that they would be directly tied up by those ropes, forcefully trapping their divine senses to death.
Although Li Yuanqing’s cultivation was not at the Supreme Realm, his consciousness was abnormally strong. He felt that something was amiss.
However, no one felt that there was anything wrong with it. They were all extremely happy as they sold their fruits, their faces filled with excitement.
One had to know that to be able to get such a high price steadily, and to purchase such a large number of Fire Spirit Fruits here, such a beautiful thing would only happen once in a few years.
They wished they could take out all the private goods they had hidden in their hands and sell them now.
Big Head Shi didn’t have much stock, only four or five hundred. It seemed like he had sneakily swindled them from somewhere these few days.
Li Yuanqing had originally wanted to trade some items here, but after what had happened just now, he suddenly became vigilant and pressed down on his treasures.
He looked at the guards standing at the side and saw them clearly. These guys were clearly puppets, and their strength seemed to be at the first level of the Supreme Realm.
These puppets did not have much aura on them, and they were completely covered by the flames outside, so it was difficult for ordinary people to detect them.
However, Li Yuanqing had an outstanding skill in puppet refinement. He could roughly tell from the movements of these fellows.
No wonder this sect was so generous. If they could refine puppets of such strength on a large scale to serve as guards, it would indeed be able to greatly increase the strength of the sect.
It was just that along the way with Big Head Shi and the others, he did not hear them mention this matter.
According to the two of them, the Divine Fire Sect was good at refining puppets. However, most of them won in quantity. They were all small puppet beasts.
However, there were so many human-shaped puppets, and their strength was extraordinary. It was completely different from what the two of them had said.
Just as Li Yuanqing was in deep thought, a strange movement suddenly came from the side.
A few guards surrounded a stall.
“What are you doing? These Fire Spirit Fruits of mine are definitely the purest. It’s impossible for them to be fake. Don’t frame me!”
It was Big Head and Zhao Shaoji. At this moment, they were surrounded by the guards. In front of them was a Divine Fire Sect disciple who was holding a Fire Spirit Fruit and looking at them with an unfriendly expression.
“You guys are still trying to quibble. The Fire Spirit Fruit was clearly brought over by you guys. How is this a ripe Fire Spirit Fruit? It’s clearly two months away!”
“You’re talking nonsense. These Fire Spirit Fruits of mine are all top-notch goods. Stop talking nonsense here! Take a look at me, or I’ll take a look.
As Big Head Shi spoke, he went up and wanted to take back his map. However, that person dodged in time and directly dodged.
“You dare to sell fake goods here and want to take them back. Aren’t you thinking too simply?”
“You’re slandering me. That fruit isn’t mine at all!”
Big Head Shi suddenly changed his words, and the people around him could not stand it anymore.
“Brother, just now, you insisted that your fruits were all good. Now, you say that they aren’t. Aren’t you feeling guilty? Just apologize to him and forget about it.”
“How can we forget about it? Just now, he asked him for help, and he saw him being taken away. 1 think this guy should be sent to the back to be properly educated. Otherwise, his acting would be very convincing.”
Big Head Shi slowly retreated, but the guards behind him had already surrounded him. He had nowhere to retreat.
“What are you doing? I’m from a large sect. If you dare to attack me, do you believe that your Divine Fire Sect won’t be able to protect it!”
The clamor immediately attracted the Venerable from before. That person dragged his red robe and slowly walked over from the crowd to stand in front of Big Head Shi.
“What’s wrong?”
He looked around and asked slowly.
“Venerable One, this person is selling fake Fire Spirit Fruits here.”
“What fake? That wasn’t mine at all. Don’t think that 1 didn’t know that you exchanged my fruit!”
“How should we deal with him?”
The Venerable raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Big Head Shi with regret.”! thought you were a person who knew the big picture. I didn’t expect you to do such a dirty thing.”
“Venerable One, this is all a misunderstanding. Let me explain. This is all a misunderstanding!”
“Take him down and send him to the camp at the back. There’s no need to say anything else!”
“Venerable One, listen to me. This is all fake. That fruit is not mine!”
He still wanted to beg, but the other party did not listen to him at all. A few guards behind him directly surrounded him in the middle and pressed him to the ground with spears, just like the person just now.
“You can’t do this to me!”
Big Head Shi wanted to shout, but Zhao Shaoji quietly moved around, trying to slip into the crowd. Suddenly, a few guards blocked his way.
Zhao Shaoji looked innocently at the surrounding guards and explained,”What does this have to do with me? 1 don’t know him!”
However, his words were useless. The guards behind him also picked him up.
Two large red dumplings were wrapped up and carried by the guards to the tent at the back.
Li Yunqing silently looked in the direction of the battle. The two of them still had his Fire Spirit Fruit with his mark.
The Venerable looked helplessly at the people beside him and coldly snorted, warning them,”Our Divine Fire Sect is so generous to accept your Fire Spirit Fruit. 1 didn’t expect that so many of you would still want to bluff your way through.”
The cultivators on the periphery immediately defended themselves.
“Venerable, don’t misunderstand. Those are those opportunistic people. We’re all here to do business sincerely.”
“You’re right. We’re not that kind of people.”
“Venerable, don’t take a partial view. I don’t think the two of them are good people. It’s a good thing to chase them out now.”
The Supremacy of the Divine Fire Sect looked at everyone’s reaction as if he was very helpless and shook his head silently.
“I didn’t expect to meet so many people who don’t follow the rules today. 1 think there should be only a few of them. Since everyone has promised, I won’t make a fuss. I only hope that such a thing won’t happen again!”
After he finished speaking, he retreated again. However, before he left, he left a glance at his subordinates.
Li Yunqing felt that something was wrong. The fruit in that guy’s hand was indeed not ripe, but how could a smart person like Big Head Shi fake it in such a place? Was he that stupid?
While the people outside continued to gather around the stall to trade, Li Yuanqing unknowingly retreated to the entrance of the valley and left without a word..
