Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 60: One Sword Talisman

Qin Gengyun arrived at the night market.

At this moment, the snow had stopped, and the night market was bustling.

Cultivators came and went, and glazed lamps inscribed with the Everlasting Array lit up the streets.

From a distance, Qin Gengyun saw Mo Xiaolan talking to customers in front of her stall.

She still wore that usual plain long robe, with a long coat trimmed with thin fur over it, her graceful figure wrapped in winter clothes, but unable to conceal those long, slender beautiful legs.

If she dressed up carefully, many female cultivators wouldn’t compare to her.

However, in his impression, Mo Xiaolan had never groomed herself, spending her days either as a Post House Cultivator or setting up a stall.

This is normal for low-level cultivators.

Survival is already hard enough, who has the time to dress like a flower?

Qin Gengyun didn’t want to disturb Mo Xiaolan’s business, so he stood not far away for a moment, waiting for this wave of customers to leave before walking over.

However, as soon as he moved his feet, he saw the middle-aged male cultivator he had seen before walk up to Mo Xiaolan’s stall.

Qin Gengyun’s heart tensed up, and he quickly stopped.

The last time, this middle-aged male cultivator seemed quite hostile towards him and had deliberately shown off at least a Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

Someone Qin Gengyun couldn’t afford to offend.

"Senior Zhou, what would you like to buy?"

Mo Xiaolan’s smiling face stiffened slightly, then she squeezed out a smile and asked the middle-aged male cultivator.

"Taoist Friend Mo, you know what I want."

The middle-aged male cultivator looked at Mo Xiaolan, his gaze unrestrained, speaking without deliberately lowering his voice.

A Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation is a notable figure in Yunling Town, and even more so in this night market, he could walk sideways as long as he didn’t damage the facilities, even killing a couple of low-level cultivators would be overlooked by the managers of Yunling Town.

The surrounding people realized something was wrong and gave way.

Mo Xiaolan stood upright, neither humble nor pushy, and cupped her hands:

"Senior Zhou, I have answered you before, I have no intention of marriage, I’m sorry."

The onlookers let out a burst of exclamations, Mo Xiaolan was quite famous in the night market, many people privately called her "the flower of the night market."

However, everyone also knew Mo Xiaolan was determined on the great path, and would definitely not form a Taoist partnership, so no one had ever bothered her.

Unexpectedly, this middle-aged male cultivator wanted to hit a wall, many people laughed, holding a mind to watch the scene.

"Hmph."

The middle-aged male cultivator snorted lightly, a massive pressure exploded, the faces of the onlookers turned pale in an instant.

"Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation?!"

People dispersed quickly, even Taoist Friend Huang, who was setting up a stall next to Mo Xiaolan, hurriedly packed up his things and ran away.

Qin Gengyun was also intimidated by this pressure, breathing became somewhat difficult.

Equally shocked in his heart, it turns out this middle-aged male cultivator wanted to form a Dao relationship with Mo Xiaolan?

"Taoist Friend Mo, three hundred Spirit Stones, a Lower Grade Flying Sword, a small Spirit Vein Immortal Mansion, even such bride price you are unwilling? Don’t let your appetite be too large."

The middle-aged male cultivator said to Mo Xiaolan lightly:

"Do you still want to be the main wife?"

Qin Gengyun understood, it turned out this middle-aged male cultivator intended for Mo Xiaolan to become a concubine.

Mo Xiaolan was at the center of the other’s spiritual energy pressure, her face somewhat pale, but her body remained straight:

"Senior Zhou, it’s not about the bride price, nor about the order of wives and concubines, I will not form a Dao partnership with anyone in my lifetime, please understand."

"Hehe."

The middle-aged male cultivator laughed: "Taoist Friend Mo, your Spirit Root matches mine, I have a Dual Cultivation Technique from a Major Sect, if you marry me, daily dual cultivation, your cultivation will surely advance rapidly, Foundation Establishment is not impossible, why suffer alone?"

Mo Xiaolan’s expression remained unchanged, her voice still calm and firm:

"Senior Zhou, thank you for your favor, I have no intention of dual cultivation, I’m sorry for disappointing your good intentions, please find someone else."

The middle-aged male cultivator frowned, his face solemn:

"Taoist Friend Mo, don’t force me to use power."

After speaking, his spiritual energy pressure became even stronger, Mo Xiaolan’s pale face turned red, her body trembling slightly, clearly struggling against the other’s pressure.

Qin Gengyun’s body also trembled, yet his heart struggled.

Could he just watch helplessly as Mo Xiaolan was forcibly taken away?

But... that is a Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation!

The other could easily kill me with one hand.

If I go up, I will only die, I can do nothing!

At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Qin Gengyun’s mind.

Anger, fear, hesitation, vexation...

"This Taoist Friend, I’m called Mo Xiaolan, we’ll be neighbors from now on."

"Taoist Friend Qin, don’t be discouraged, as long as you work hard, there will always be hope."

"Taoist Friend Qin, between you and me there is no need to be so polite."

"Taoist Friend Qin, when you and I reach Foundation Establishment, let’s celebrate grandly!"

Qin Gengyun was sweating profusely, his whole body trembling, gritting his teeth, using all his strength, he took an extraordinarily difficult step forward.

He stepped into the center of the middle-aged male cultivator’s spiritual energy pressure, bearing the pressure alongside Mo Xiaolan.

His teeth were chattering, his voice trembling, yet he still opened his mouth:

"Mo, Mo Taoist Friend, I, I’m here to give you something."

In this world, there are always things that cannot be escaped.

If one escapes, that would be the true Heart Demon.

Mo Xiaolan turned her head, looking at him incredulously, and in an instant, a radiant expression flashed in those phoenix eyes.

"Taoist Friend Qin..."

The middle-aged male cultivator turned back, snorted coldly:

"You again?"

Mo Xiaolan anxiously exclaimed: "Senior Zhou, Taoist Friend Qin is my supplier, he is here to deliver goods to me!"

The middle-aged male cultivator glanced at Qin Gengyun indifferently: "Leave the stuff and go."

Qin Gengyun was shaken by that gaze, sweat once again appeared on his forehead, he spoke with difficulty:

"Esteemed Senior, I have some matters to discuss with Taoist Friend Mo."

The middle-aged male cultivator was a bit surprised, probably not expecting this small Third-Layer Qi Cultivation dare to defy his words.

He slowly raised his hand, Mo Xiaolan’s pretty face turned pale, she quickly said:

"Senior Zhou, don’t, I’m willing..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Gengyun took out a talisman paper.

The middle-aged male cultivator’s motion stopped, he squinted his eyes, for the first time, a hint of caution appeared in his voice:

"One Sword Talisman? Second Grade?"

In the art of talismans, there is a special talisman paper that can be transformed into a sword cultivator’s strike upon use.

And the power of that strike depends on the grade of the talisman paper itself.

First Grade corresponds to the full-strength strike of a mid-period Qi Cultivation sword cultivator.

Second Grade, equivalent to the full-strength strike of a late-period Qi Cultivation sword cultivator.

By Ninth Grade, it’s the full-strength strike of a Divinity Transformation Stage sword cultivator.

Therefore, this type of talisman is referred to as the "One Sword Talisman."

One Sword Talismans are much more expensive than ordinary talisman papers, a First Grade One Sword Talisman costs tens of Spirit Stones.

The Second Grade One Sword Talisman in Qin Gengyun’s hand would cost at least a hundred Spirit Stones.

If this Second Grade "One Sword Talisman" were released, the middle-aged male cultivator, even if he barely manages to withstand it, would have to deplete his spiritual treasure and suffer severe injuries, not worth it.

Yet he, a Fifth-Layer Qi Cultivation, would be losing face if frightened by a small cultivator.

Qin Gengyun said: "Esteemed Senior, this is the goods I brought for Taoist Friend Mo, I have matters to discuss about future supply with Taoist Friend Mo, might you allow a convenience?"

This was giving a way out.

The middle-aged male cultivator snorted coldly, withdrew his spiritual energy pressure, and deeply looked at Qin Gengyun:

"We’ll meet again."

With that, he flickered and vanished in an instant.
