Invincible cultivation strengthens: my son is a troublemaker

Xuanwu Sect.

It's a subordinate force of the Jiang Family, and it counts as one of the super influential forces in the Eastern Domain. The sect's strongest cultivator has reached the eight Heavenly Layer as a Saint.

And on this day.

Xuanwu Sect welcomed a mysterious visitor, who was clad in a black cloak, with an unfathomable presence.

The elders, Sect Leader, and even some ancestors of the Xuanwu Sect couldn't discern this person's power, so they dared not show any neglect.

Ultimately, the ancestor with the cultivation of an eight Heavenly Layer Saint personally came to receive the visitor, only to find he still couldn't grasp this individual's strength.

Immediately, he grew even more solemn.

This could be a senior at the nine Heavenly Layers!!

"I wonder why the senior has graced Xuanwu Sect with your presence?"

In the Forbidden Valley of Xuanwu Sect, the Xuanwu Ancestor personally offered tea to Qin Chuan and politely inquired.

"I have something that must interest you."

Qin Chuan calmly stated, and his voice became deep and authoritative through the filter of the mysterious black cloak.

"Oh? What could it be?"

The Xuanwu Ancestor raised his spirits.

"Take a look yourself."

Qin Chuan took out the Memory Stone, which immediately floated in the air, projecting the image of Qin Zi using a Sacred Artifact.

"Imperial Artifact!!"

The Xuanwu Ancestor suddenly stood up, eyes shining with heated light, but soon, this light extinguished.

He took a deep breath and said gravely, "Senior, although the Imperial Artifact is incredibly precious, our humble Xuanwu Sect can hardly afford it... I don't understand your intention."

"Haha, I'm certainly not telling you this young person has an Imperial Artifact and then urging you to rob him."

Qin Chuan shook his head with a smile and leisurely said, "If that were the case, I'd rather go and rob him myself. After all, what you can offer me can't be more precious than an Imperial Artifact."

"Then what does the senior mean..." The Xuanwu Ancestor frowned, puzzled at Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan chuckled and said, "This young man possesses an Imperial Artifact, but his identity is quite special—I dare not risk stealing it. You have the constraints of your sect and likely dare not take the risk either."

"I came this time mainly to sell you this stone, and you can sell it to the Royal Family above you, the Jiang Family."

The Xuanwu Ancestor remained silent for a moment, then asked, "What exactly is this young man's identity, and why do you say it's special?"

Qin Chuan said, "His name is Qin Zi, the son of Qin Chuan."

"What?!"

The old man's eyes flashed brightly, his breaths became rapid, and he looked at the Memory Stone with heated eyes.

He finally understood the value of this stone!

Qin Zi has an Imperial Artifact! Such news, accompanied by evidence, will certainly please the Jiang Family.

After all, the Jiang Family bears a grudge against Qin Zi.

But currently, due to that ruthless man Qin Chuan, the Jiang Family does not dare to directly attack Qin Zi. However, if given this evidence, the Jiang Family can borrow a knife to kill without any risk, effortlessly wiping out Qin Zi!

And this way, the ruthless Qin Chuan has no grounds to complain because the Jiang Family is not fabricating rumors—it's a fact.

Qin Zi is not strong enough, possessing a treasure incurs guilt, leading greedy ones to kill him for the treasure—can the blame be pinned on the Jiang Family?

Moreover, once Qin Zi is killed for the treasure, Qin Chuan will certainly pursue those who seized it. This may allow uncovering Qin Chuan's depths; if the one seizing the treasure is strong enough, a mutual injury could result!

Then, the Jiang Family can reap the benefits of the fisherman, effortlessly eliminating the ruthless Qin Chuan and acquiring the Imperial Artifact...

Kill Qin Zi.

Probe Qin Chuan.

Seize the Imperial Artifact.

It's a masterstroke that kills three birds with one stone!

Thus, the value of this Memory Stone to the Jiang Family has become astonishingly high.

While the Xuanwu Ancestor may not dare compare himself to a supreme strategist like Wolong Fengchu, he can surmise that by simply selling it, he could earn ten billion.

Of course, this involves some gambling.

Maybe after receiving this Memory Stone, the Jiang Family will not grant him any rewards, merely patting his back with verbal praise.

Nevertheless, opportunity stands before him, so even if it's a gamble, he's willing to take the chance—an opportunity not to be missed!

Thus, he took a deep breath, seriously faced Qin Chuan, and asked, "Senior, name your price, I shall do my best to meet it."

Qin Chuan seemed prepared and replied without hesitation, "I heard your Xuanwu Sect's Xuanwu Gold Crystal is considered sacred material for artifact refining. How about you give me ten cubes; not too many."

The Xuanwu Ancestor's face twitched, saying, "Senior, the Xuanwu Gold Crystal is produced by our Xuanwu Sect through meticulous gathering of countless precious materials, condensed using the secret technique passed down through generations, with crystallization exceedingly slow, producing only one cube per century..."

"I know, I've looked into it." Qin Chuan said.

"Senior, you should know, this Xuanwu Gold Crystal is worth a fortune, one cube is enough to exchange for a top-grade Supreme Spiritual Treasure!" The Xuanwu Ancestor's voice was hoarse, his face extremely bitter.

"I know, I've looked into it." Qin Chuan nodded.

"Senior, you should know..."

The Xuanwu Elder wanted to struggle further.

However, Qin Chuan directly interrupted him with a gesture, decisively saying, "I don't want to know! Just a simple yes or no!"

After speaking, he slowly stood up, grabbed the Memory Stone, and appeared ready to leave: "If you are unwilling, I can find another buyer. Anyway, the Golden Cloud Sect's Golden Cloud Lotus Root, the Purple Bamboo Sect's Seven Star Purple Bamboo, Celestial Fire Mountain's Celestial Fire Crystal... all are excellent rare materials."

He listed several sects one after another.

These are all super influential major sects affiliated with the Jiang Family, well-known for producing various precious resources.

"Deal!!"

Hearing Qin Chuan enumerate these sects, the Xuanwu Ancestor became anxious, as they are competitors of the Xuanwu Sect.

Living under the Jiang Family's roof inevitably leads to competing for favor, and he didn't want to lose to these sects.

Their Xuanwu Sect must be the Jiang Family's primary subordinate sect!

"A wise choice."

Qin Chuan's lips curled into a smile, swiftly handing over the Memory Stone to the Xuanwu Ancestor.

The Xuanwu Ancestor carefully stowed away the Memory Stone and, very reluctantly, took out ten pieces of burning gold crystals, turning his head as he handed them to Qin Chuan, seemingly unwilling to look.

This is Xuanwu Gold Crystal.

A century is required to produce one piece, and a piece can be exchanged for a top-grade Supreme Spiritual Treasure like the Cyan Lotus Sword!

Qin Chuan gazed at the ten Xuanwu Gold Crystals, hesitating momentarily—should he pull out the big black guy and flatten this old fellow, snatching the remaining Xuanwu Gold Crystals?

This old fellow must have more.

Then he quickly dismissed this thought.

He couldn't do that!

If he did, the news would quickly spread to the other sects, how would he then hoodwink the next target?

Furthermore, judging by the old guy's bitter expression, even if there were remnants, it wouldn't be much, probably only three to five pieces left.

Because the level of distress between having only a house left after bankruptcy versus merely a bicycle is different.

He has researched this quite a bit.

So, robbing wasn't an option this time!

If he refrained from robbing, this old guy most likely wouldn't share this "good deed" with the other major sects governed by the Jiang Family, enabling him to smoothly harvest the resources from the other sects…

"A pleasure doing business."

Ultimately, Qin Chuan smiled, accepted the ten pieces of weighty Xuanwu Gold Crystal, and then left the Xuanwu Sect grandly.

Next stop, Golden Cloud Sect!

He had already plotted his route for operation, aiming to harvest these sects in the shortest time and with the shortest distance.

Going one by one, none would escape...
