Douluo—Chapter 45: Jade can be broken, but its whiteness cannot be changed! Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect
Heaven Dou City.
Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan came out of the Ye Family Clinic and stepped into the bustling streets.
The warm spring sun poured freely on the bluestone road, and the street stalls were full of dazzling goods. The hawking sounds were one after another, making it very lively.
Zhu Fan tilted his head slightly, his eyes falling on Dai Chengfeng's face beside him, and asked in a very low voice: "Chengfeng, if there is an external soul bone on this trip, will we give it to that little girl, or will we snatch it?"
Speaking of this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. "If you want to snatch it, Uncle is not a vegetarian. I guarantee that Ye Renxin will be shocked!"
Dai Chengfeng did not stop, merely shaking his head slowly. "Uncle, I have heard a saying."
"Jade can be broken, but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo can be burned, but its joints cannot be destroyed."
"Since I promised Ye Renxin, I naturally don't want it. And it's just an external soul bone..."
After a pause, Dai Chengfeng looked up at the scorching sun in the sky. "What I want is never so simple."
Zhu Fan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Dai Chengfeng with interest.
He remained silent, quietly waiting for his nephew to continue.
Does Chengfeng want the Star Luo Empire or the unification of the world? Let me, as his uncle, see what kind of grand ambitions he has! For a moment, Zhu Fan's eyes were full of curiosity.
"What I want is... to cut off the long strings that hang over my head."
Dai Chengfeng looked deep into the blue sky as if he could penetrate the layers of fog and see another world of gods.
Inside the Ye Family Clinic.
Standing at the entrance of the clinic, watching Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan leave, Ye Renxin tilted his ears slightly, his eyes full of satisfaction. "It is a good saying that jade can be broken, but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo can be burned, but its joints cannot be destroyed!"
"This fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire did not disappoint me."
"If he becomes the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire in the future, maybe I can lend him a hand..."
Ye Renxin felt as if at this moment, he truly knew the young man in a white robe and gold clothes for the first time – the fourth prince of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Chengfeng, who had destroyed Wuping City with 10,000 iron cavalry against 30,000 garrisons! "Such a great spirit..."
"I seem to have only seen this in Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Sect leader who is said to be invincible on the land... Although..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Renxin shook his head again. "When Tang Chen was the same age as him, he was not so sharp at all. It seems that Tang Chen is not quite comparable to him!"
Thinking of this, Ye Renxin turned his head and looked at Ye Lingling, his eyes full of solemnity.
"Since Your Highness the Fourth Prince has such a spirit, I am willing to lend you a helping hand!"
He made a decision silently in his heart.
And on the street.
"Hahaha..."
Zhu Fan looked at his nephew, laughed excitedly, and shook his head. "Chengfeng, you, you!"
"Every time uncle thinks he knows your ambition well enough, you always give uncle a shock!"
Zhu Fan raised his right hand and patted Dai Chengfeng's shoulder vigorously, his face full of appreciation. "Chengfeng, no matter what you do, uncle believes in you and supports you!"
Dai Chengfeng turned his head to look at Zhu Fan, with a faint smile on his face. "Thank you, uncle."
After that, Dai Chengfeng stopped and looked at the blacksmith shop in front of him. "Here we are!"
Even before he got close, Dai Chengfeng could already feel the heat coming towards him, which made him look forward to it eagerly.
"I don't know if I can buy a satisfactory weapon this time!"
Dai Chengfeng stepped into the blacksmith shop.
"Welcome, customer, what would you like to buy?"
At this moment, the fire in the blacksmith shop was burning, illuminating the entire shop red.
Accompanied by the rhythmic sound of "ding ding dang dang," sparks flew everywhere.
Seeing Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan come in, one of the blacksmiths, who was sturdy, with muscular arms and dark and rough skin, stopped what he was doing.
He picked up the towel on his shoulder and wiped the sweat off his body while asking Dai Chengfeng.
Dai Chengfeng didn't speak. His eyes swept over the various weapons hanging on the wall – the swords, axes, and other weapons were all cold and sharp, which made him nod with satisfaction.
Then he said to the blacksmith: "Boss, take out your heaviest spears."
Dai Chengfeng got straight to the point.
Hearing this, the blacksmith took a few spears from the shelf and handed them to Dai Chengfeng. "Customer, take a look. These are all top-quality goods in my shop, heavy and substantial."
"You can try them and see if they suit your needs?"
While speaking, the blacksmith handed one of the spears to Dai Chengfeng.
Dai Chengfeng reached out and took the spear from the blacksmith, but after just a few trial swings, Dai Chengfeng's brows furrowed.
He casually threw the spear back to the blacksmith, with a hint of disappointment in his tone. "Not heavy enough!"
"Boss, do you have anything heavier?"
Dai Chengfeng's self-created soul skill is the White Tiger Overlord Spear, which takes the route of extreme power.
Once a spear is fired, it can split mountains, cut rivers, split the earth, overturn the sea, and destroy cities...
Therefore, for him, a good spear is based on weight, so that it can exert the greatest power in battle.
Hearing this, the blacksmith looked embarrassed and scratched his head. "Sir, these are the heaviest spears I have..."
"You are still not satisfied. Then I will go to the backyard to find my master and ask if there are any more in stock?"
Dai Chengfeng nodded slightly. "Please do."
"Then please wait a moment, sir."
As he said this, the blacksmith trotted to the backyard.
Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan stood in the front hall, waiting.
And at this moment, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes suddenly walked into the store.
He said nothing when he came in, but simply glanced at the weapons on the wall. Then he walked straight to the pile of groceries on the side, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.
Zhu Fan saw the other party, pointed at the small tower mark on the middle-aged man's clothes, and whispered to Dai Chengfeng: "Chengfeng, he is from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. He looks like a member of the inner sect whose martial soul is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda."
"What do you think he is doing here?"
"A member of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect." Dai Chengfeng's eyes were full of interest in an instant.
After all, he knew very well that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda had a special effect: treasure appraisal!
This unique ability allows the owner of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul to identify the treasures among many items or sundries, and buy items worth far more than the original price by picking up leaks.
For example, in the original novel, Ning Rongrong used her martial soul, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, to identify treasures in Gengxin City.
With only one gold soul coin, she bought a series of precious materials such as the extremely valuable Plate Crystal Gold, Cold Iron, and Essence of Silver Deep Sea.
At the same time, it was precisely with this ability that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect became one of the richest sects on the Douluo Continent.
"Since the other party cares so much about the waste weapons in the groceries, does it prove that there are treasures among them?"
