It’s done
"Here. She is feeling a little uncomfortable and is lying down to rest. Please wait outside for a while."
Hua Chaoyang immediately thought of a countermeasure.
She pushed Li Yan into the room and closed the door, not forgetting to glare at Chang Yulan fiercely.
Li Yan cannot be left outside the door to be coveted.
Hua Chaoyang gave Li Yan a "good news" look and quickly sat down at the table to put on makeup.
The art of disguise can easily be exposed by advanced cultivators. Only her modern makeup technology can make the face change foolproof.
Soon, her skin color became dull, the marks disappeared, her eyes became smaller, her eyebrows became thicker, and there were a few freckles. She used the token given to her by Xiao Yun to hide her cultivation.
When she saw that she was almost done and was about to go out, Li Yan grabbed her, threw a spell on her, and immediately changed her clothes and hairstyle.
Li Yan nodded at her, and Hua Chaoyang opened a crack in the door and squeezed out. She didn't want people outside to see what was going on inside the house.
"What do you want from me, sir?" She deliberately changed her voice, and her whole aura switched to the cautious one of a follower.
Chang Ruolan stared at Hua Chaoyang for a long time, then suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two and asked: "Where is Hua Chaoyang, why doesn't she come out?"
"It's none of your business." Hua Chaoyang glared at her.
It happened that Li Jianwei had finished taking a bath and came out of the house when he heard some noise: "Little junior sister, why are you here?" While he was taking a bath in the inner room, he vaguely heard someone making a noise, and it seemed that it was Chang Ruolan's voice.
He deliberately concealed his whereabouts when he left the sect, not expecting that she would come after him.
He pulled the person into his room, and before closing the door, he looked back at Hua Chaoyang, feeling that he had seen this person before somewhere.
Get the people away quickly.
Hua Chaoyang watched the brothers and sisters enter the room impatiently, and then he left with peace of mind and followed the officials.
Li Yan inside the house wanted to follow him, but found that he had become translucent and gradually disappeared.
Hua Chaoyang followed this man to the palace, walked through the long and winding palace road, and came to a magnificent and brightly lit hall.
A eunuch went in to report. After a short while, an old eunuch came out and sat directly on the chair in the middle.
With a fair face and sharp eyes, he looked like the leader of the eunuchs who were pampering themselves in the palace.
Hua Chaoyang made a greeting as the palace attendant taught her before.
The old eunuch looked at her for a long time and then asked: "You are a follower of the world, why do you have something like an egg? Our family heard that the person registered there is a cultivator of immortality."
Hua Chaoyang replied according to the story he had thought up before: "That's a casual cultivator hired by my family leader to help him drive magic weapons to make money. It's called a diving egg."
"Oh, are you a casual cultivator? Diving egg? Who is the head of your family? Where is he from?"
"The head of the family is Qi Li, a spiritual planter, from Chixia City."
The old eunuch nodded and asked, "Where did you get this magic weapon?"
"I don't know about this. The head of the family gave it to me. He said it was a gift from an outsider."
"A gift? A worldly master?" The old eunuch obviously didn't believe it.
However, I can't find any others at the moment.
Then he asked: "Where is your master? Ask him how much this would cost?"
"My master disappeared ten days ago. I walked to Phoenix City while looking for him."
"Missing?" The old eunuch looked at Hua Chaoyang, who had his head lowered, and nodded, "You are a loyal servant."
Hua Chaoyang hurriedly said: "The master once said that he kept this thing because it was too eye-catching and he always wanted to sell it, but the price was too high and no one bought it. He said that this is a new thing created for people who follow the world.
Only royals deserve it."
The old eunuch thought to himself, you may not be eye-catching, but you are very thoughtful.
Your Majesty just likes this thing, otherwise he would be too lazy to talk nonsense with you.
"Please make a price, we want this."
Hua Chaoyang paused deliberately for a while, as if thinking, and then said: "The master said that if you can't make a second one of this thing, you can only sell it for 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones."
"One hundred thousand high-grade spiritual stones?" The old eunuch's eyes widened.
I thought to myself, you stinky girl, you really dare to ask for a price.
If this thing hadn't been noticed by thousands of people in the busy city, he could have gotten it without paying a penny.
Now everyone in the world knows about this new gadget. If it is brought to the palace without spending money, it will discredit the emperor.
Immortal cultivators may have some complaints.
The old eunuch bargained with Hua Chaoyang in a negotiating tone: "Do you think you should lower the price? How about 80,000 high-grade spiritual stones?"
Hua Chaoyang thought to himself: It’s not like I’m spending your money, you’re quite evil. Cut off two-tenths of it with one knife.
"No, if my master knew the price I sold it for, he would beat me to death."
"Didn't you say that your master is missing?"
"I'll find him."
The old eunuch was speechless. After being silent for a while, he persuaded again: "It's inconvenient for you to take so much money. Why don't I write a note and keep it for you first, and then I will give you the spiritual stone after you find the owner."
Hua Chaoyang said no.
"I won't sell it. Anyway, by renting it to people who follow the world, I can earn a lot of spiritual stones in a day. Maybe when I find the owner, I will make more money than these 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones."
Hua Chaoyang pretended to leave. He looked like he didn't want to talk anymore.
"Stop, the inner garden of the palace, you can come and leave whenever you want."
"I didn't want to come either, you invited me here."
Hua Chaoyang calculated that when the stalemate reached a certain level, she would give in to the price, and the matter would be settled.
The old eunuch coughed twice in anger and pointed at Hua Chaoyang: "Don't be stubborn, your things are not worth so much money."
"That's right, then don't buy it and I won't sell it."
Hua Chaoyang was resolute and took full advantage of his posture.
If he were an ordinary follower of the world, he would probably be frightened out of his wits if he encountered such a situation.
Imperial power is nothing to those who cultivate immortality, but it is as important as Mount Tai to those who follow the world.
The old eunuch didn't know that the inconspicuous girl in front of him was actually one of the most advanced cultivators.
How could you be afraid of his intimidation?
Hua Chaoyang's determined attitude attracted another voice in the hall.
The sound seemed to be hidden in the darkness, a slight cough.
The old eunuch immediately stood up from his seat and called Hua Chaoyang to stop.
"One hundred thousand spiritual stones is one hundred thousand spiritual stones, trade tomorrow."
Hua Chaoyang turned back and looked at the corner of the hall where the sound came from, nodded and said: "Tomorrow I will ask the casual cultivator to bring the diving egg, and you can just give her the spirit stone."
After the business deal was concluded, Hua Chaoyang returned to the inn in a good mood. When she opened the door, the person who greeted her was A Li.
The smile on her face froze for a moment, then bad thoughts arose and she asked him, "Where is your father?"
A Li's spirit was damaged and he had just woken up. He didn't want to tease her, so he looked at her up and down and felt relieved that she was back intact.
"Looking at your appearance, the matter is done?"
