Chapter 1139 Make Friends

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The Purple-Faced Venerable, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and said indifferently, "This sovereign will exchange a grade seven ice-glass vegetable for you!"

The xiuzhe who were mocking immediately shut their mouths. The expression in his eyes was extremely complicated. Envy, puzzlement, deep thought, frustration … and so on, I've long heard that the Purple-Faced Venerable is interested in some jade slips that record strange things. Although he has frequently participated in cultivation exchanges in recent decades, the number of times he has made a move is very few. Moreover, most of them are ancient jade slips that are traded in a similar manner. It's the first time he has agreed to trade for a grade seven spirit medicine without even looking at it.

"If I had known earlier, I would have made some so-called" monster biographies "and" peculiar affairs records "to trick him!" Many xiuzhe secretly muttered in their hearts.

The short and skinny xiuzhe on the stage frowned and said, "Even though the grade seven ice-glass vegetables are also ice-type, what I need is a grade seven ice core lotus."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar. This fellow actually dared to reject the Purple-Faced Venerable's trade. Not to mention that the grade seven Ice Glass Vegetables were not inferior to the grade seven Ice Core Lotus, even if they were far inferior, rejecting a king-level trade request would still be a very unwise thing. Perhaps it would cause a life-threatening disaster.

All the cultivators in the arena cast their gazes towards the Purple-Faced Venerable one after another, ready to watch the show.

The Purple-Faced Venerable obviously did not expect to be rejected. His expression darkened as purple energy faintly appeared on his face. Zhang Gang shouted, "This fellow Daoist on the stage has a very good face. He must have come from somewhere else. Grade 7 ice-glass vegetables are not less valuable than Grade 7 ice-core lotuses. You must think it over clearly. Don't regret missing out!"

Although Zhang Gang's words contained half a word of threat, they were actually hidden threats.

A hint of fear flashed through the eyes of the cultivator on the stage, but he clearly needed the Ice Core Lotus very much. He forcefully said, "The value of a Grade Seven Ice Glass Vegetable is indeed no less than that of the Ice Core Glass Vegetable. If no one can exchange the Ice Core Lotus, then I will exchange it with the Venerable!"

Under the pressure of the king level, the short and thin xiuzhe had succumbed in disguise. Let alone whether anyone had the Ice Core Lotus, even if they did, who would dare to oppose Venerable Purple?

The moment the short and thin cultivator said those words, the purple-faced Venerable's gloomy old face slightly improved. The old god closed his eyes on the ground, and Zhang Gang's cold gaze swept across the entire arena. The meaning of the warning was very obvious.

Although the cultivators present were unconvinced, they still dared not say anything. Lei Ben, who was in charge of hosting the lightning net, had an ugly expression on his face. However, the Purple-Faced Venerable did not say that he wanted to forcefully sell or buy it, so it was not easy for him to interfere.

The short and skinny cultivator waited for a moment and no one said that they wanted to exchange the Ice Core Lotus. He couldn't help but sigh secretly. He had already expected this outcome. He turned his gaze back to the direction of the Violet-Faced Venerable and was about to throw the ancient jade slip over when a voice sounded in the quiet hall.

"I happen to have a Grade Seven Ice Core Lotus. I'll trade it with you!"

Everyone present couldn't help but be stunned. Immediately afterwards, it boiled over. Which idiot was so bold as to actually dare to go against the Purple-Faced Venerable? The Longevity Star Duke hung himself-he felt that his life was too long.

Everyone's gazes fell on one person in unison. It was none other than that unremarkable yellow-faced kid.

"So it's him!" Everyone began to whisper. Some people remembered that the Purple-Faced Venerable had brazenly used his divine sense to sweep past this person when he first entered. This fellow really had a grudge against the Purple-Faced Venerable. He dared to fight against the Purple-Faced Venerable! How dare he!

Ding Qing and the others beside Chu Jun were stunned. They turned to look at Chu Jun in shock. Obviously, they did not expect Chu Jun to come out like this.

Ding Qing couldn't help but be anxious. Chu Jun already had a grudge against Zhang Gang, but now it was unwise to offend the Purple-Faced Venerable for a mere piece of ancient jade slip. Ding Qing even thought that Chu Jun couldn't swallow the anger that the Purple-Faced Venerable had openly provoked just now, so she secretly pulled Chu Jun away, her eyes filled with anxiety.

Chu Jun chuckled at Ding Qing and calmly stood up. He took out a Grade Seven Ice Core Lotus from his interspatial ring and tossed it onto the platform with a wave of his hand.

The short and thin cultivator on the platform was overjoyed. He quickly reached out to catch it and confirmed that it was the Ice Core Lotus. He said happily, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, this ancient jade slip belongs to you!" After saying that, he tossed the ancient jade slip to Chu Jun, put away the Ice Core Lotus, and hurriedly left the stage. From beginning to end, he did not dare to look in the direction of the Purple-Faced Venerable.

Chu Jun took the ancient jade slip. He put it away without even looking at it, As a result, Everyone believed that Chu Jun was deliberately targeting the Purple-Faced Venerable. The entire venue was in an uproar. Some people admired Chu Jun, but more people looked at him as if they were idiots. It was fine if they exchanged a grade seven spirit medicine for a useless jade slip. To offend the King-ranked Purple-Faced Venerable was simply courting death. Many people already treated Chu Jun as a dead person.

Zhang Gang stared at Chu Jun with a fierce gaze. The purple-faced Venerable's face rose, and the expressions of the cultivators in the hall changed slightly. The one sitting next to the purple-faced Venerable was even more trembling. The Purple-Faced Venerable was not only a king-level expert, the most terrifying thing was that he also had the title of "Poison Monarch". Many people who offended him did not even know how to die, so everyone was afraid that they would end up in a pond.

Ding Qing's face turned pale, and Tie Hao was obviously nervous.

Lei Ben leapt onto the platform and laughed loudly, "The Cultivation Exchange Conference this time was quite fruitful. Many people obtained the items they needed. I can't wait any longer. I have a piece of Heavenly Curtain Iron here. I want to exchange it for a Thunder Buddha Bamboo. Fellow Daoist Thunder Buddha Bamboo, please communicate with me!"

The moment Lei Ben stepped onto the stage, the originally tense atmosphere turned invisible.

Everyone understood that Lei Ben's action was to rescue Chu Jun, as well as himself. Once the Purple-Faced Venerable took action, he would lose face as the host of this exchange.

Lei Bentuan cupped his hands in salute and nodded in Chu Jun's direction. Chu Jun responded with a smile.

Lei Ben clearly had a good impression of Chu Jun. He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, did you exchange the Thunder Buddha Bamboo?"

Chu Jun smiled and said, "I do want the Heavenly Curtain Iron, but unfortunately, I don't have the Thunder Buddha Bamboo on hand!"

Heavenly Curtain Iron is something beyond the heavens, Very precious, Heavenly Curtain Iron was added to the magic treasure, both offensive and defensive capabilities will be qualitatively improved, It would be even more impressive if they were all made of Heavenly Curtain Iron. Chu Jun currently lacked a magic treasure that he could use. It would be good if he could obtain Heavenly Curtain Iron. Unfortunately, he did not have the Thunder Buddha Bamboo in his hand. Furthermore, the Ice Core Lotus that he had used to exchange for the ancient jade slips was also one of the seventh grade spirit medicines that he had stolen from the Purple-Faced Venerable's Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Lei Ben smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't have it. Fellow Daoist can also exchange it with me in the future!"

Lei Ben approached Chu Jun under the gazes of the crowd. Everyone present had strange expressions as they secretly watched the Purple-Faced Venerable's reaction.

"Which fellow daoist here has the Thunder Buddha Bamboo on hand?" Lei Ben asked loudly. Finally, he turned to the Purple-Faced Venerable's direction and respectfully said, "Senior, if you have any extra Thunder Buddha Bamboo in hand, I hope you can exchange it for it without hesitation!"

The Purple-Faced Venerable's expression had returned to normal, and he said indifferently, "I, Old Thunder Buddha Bamboo, have not!"

"What a pity!" Lei Ben shook his head, "Looks like this humble Heavenly Curtain Iron can't be exchanged!"

"Boss Lei, this little girl … has the Thunder Buddha Bamboo!" A weak voice rang out. Everyone followed suit and saw a young female cultivator standing up in a corner. She said embarrassedly, "It's only three sections!"

The Thunder Buddha Bamboo only grew one section every hundred years. Three sections were three hundred years. When it was fully mature, it would be nine sections. It wanted to be called the Nine-section Thunder Buddha.

Lei Benzi said happily, "Three sections are fine. I'll trade with you!"

The female cultivator hurriedly took out a jade plate. There was a two-foot-long green bamboo on it. There was not a single leaf on it. The jade-green bamboo was covered in lightning. It was the Thunder Buddha Bamboo.

Lei Ben had only come up to the stage for the sake of relieving the encirclement, but he didn't expect that someone would actually take out the Thunder Buddha Bamboo. This was also considered a pleasant surprise. He took out a half-cubic-meter piece of Heavenly Curtain Iron and exchanged it with the female cultivator on the spot.

The meeting continued, and it was announced that it was over in half an hour.

Just as Chu Jun and Ding Qing were about to leave, "Second Master Guan" Lei Ben walked over and smiled, "Boss Sha!"

Sha Qianli smiled heartily and said, "Boss Lei, congratulations on your upcoming advancement to King Level!"

Lei Ben was slightly stunned, "Why did Boss Sha say that?"

"Boss Lei, don't try to hide anything. If it weren't for the fact that you're about to advance to King Level, how would Boss Lei be willing to exchange all of the Heavenly Curtain Iron for the Thunder Buddha Bamboo!"

Lei Ben laughed heartily. He neither denied nor admitted it. His gaze turned to Chu Jun and smiled, "Fellow Daoist Han, I've heard of you. You killed Mao Yuankui in one move. Haha, I'm also a lightning cultivator. I can communicate more in the future!"

Ding Qing was delighted. Lei Ben was tough and he was about to advance to King Level. If Brother Han had a good relationship with Lei Ben, the Purple-Faced Venerable would definitely be afraid.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Boss Lei, please give me some pointers!"

Lei Bengwo raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Han, being too modest is arrogant!"

Lei Ben's voice was loud. In addition, the apprentices all pricked up their ears to pay attention. When they heard him call Brother Han directly, they couldn't help but be slightly shocked. They cast envious gazes at Chu Jun. This kid was really lucky. He offended the Violet-Faced Venerable, but he made good friends with Lei Ben, who was famous for his heroic spirit.

Chu Jun pretended to be bashful and laughed!

Lei Ben patted Chu Jun's shoulder and said seriously, "I really look forward to you. Are you interested in joining our lightning net?"

Chu Jun couldn't help but stare at Lei Ben in astonishment. He discovered that the other party didn't seem to be joking. He couldn't help but feel moved. Even if Lei Ben had met him at first sight, he wouldn't have easily dragged him into the partnership. This was too unbelievable.

Lei Ben clearly saw through Chu Jun's doubts and smiled, "Actually, I noticed you a long time ago. Haha, of course, I also did some simple investigations. It's not convenient to talk here. If it's convenient for us to find a place to talk to each other alone?"

Chu Jun couldn't figure out what Quasi-Thunder Rush had found. He nodded and said, "Naturally, it's convenient!" After saying that, he turned to Ding Qing and the others and said, "Boss Sha, Brother Tie, Miss Yuxin, you guys go first!"

Ding Qing was naturally happy to see Chu Jun and Lei Ben befriend each other. She smiled sweetly and said, "You go!"

Tie Hao was also happy for Chu Jun. Being able to join the lightning net was much more promising than being able to join the sand iron. He smiled and said, "Brother Han, don't worry about us. I'll find you for a drink tomorrow."

Sha Qianli's eyes were a little strange, but he also smiled and said, "Boss Lei, Brother Han, let's take our leave first!"
