Chapter 1520: Chapter 1513: Sowing Discord

Manager Huang inquired a few things and learned that after Sikong Ran and others arrived at the Kutuo River, Bai You insisted on going down to the Kutuo River.

But little did they know, as soon as they reached the entrance, a gust of cold wind swept in.

The cold wind was extremely fierce, and Sikong Ran, knowing its severity, pulled Bai You back to prevent her from entering the Kutuo River.

Bai You was unwilling to give up, but just then, the Fourth Prince sent people to seal off the Kutuo River.

The soldiers told Bai You that there were very powerful ghosts haunting the Kutuo River, and the Fourth Prince had ordered that before and after the Hao Tian Festival, no one was allowed to enter the area around the Kutuo River.

Upon hearing about ghosts, Bai You recalled her previous encounter in the Luoyin Ghost Cave, her face changed dramatically, and she dared not make a fuss anymore.

Helplessly, the two had to return.

Manager Huang thought to himself how Xin Lin was incredibly foresighted.

"Manager Huang, the old student said to buy as many Spiritual Wisdom Grass as possible. Why are there others?"

Poison Venerable saw Bai You and Sikong Ran and looked a bit displeased.

She was a domineering personality, being a disciple of the State Preceptor in Shengri Country, having been someone who could call the wind and rain. Upon hearing that the other side also wanted Spiritual Wisdom Grass, she inevitably felt some displeasure.

"Master, you want ten Spiritual Wisdom Grass. This Miss Bai is the daughter of the Sect Master of Xuantian Sect, and she wants Five Coin Spirit Wisdom Grass. Recently, the Chamber of Commerce acquired a batch of Spiritual Wisdom Grass, about twenty stocks, but no more than twenty stocks. There are rumors that King Hua has taken over that area; there won’t be any more Spiritual Wisdom Grass in the future. I invited the two of you today to inform you of this matter, and regarding the remaining five stocks of Spiritual Wisdom Grass..."

But before Manager Huang could finish speaking, Poison Venerate’s expression had already changed.

King Hua has occupied the Kutuo River!

Were these Spiritual Wisdom Grass collected from King Hua’s territory?

King Hua is a well-known Ghost King in the Fuzhou area, an unchallengeable figure.

If even she covets the Spiritual Wisdom Grass, then it must be of excellent quality!

Although Poison Venerate couldn’t discern the quality of Spiritual Wisdom Grass as Xin Lin could, she knew that anything coveted by the Ghost King had to be extraordinary.

"I want all of the remaining five, at double the price."

Poison Venerable was wealthy and made the decision without hesitation.

Previously, she had offered fifty pieces of high-level Qi Stone for those ten Spiritual Wisdom Grass.

"Just because you say so, doesn’t mean you’ll get them! I want them too, at the same price as those five. Manager Huang, you should know that the Five Luminaries Stone is very precious. Much rarer than those high-level Qi Stones, as a businessman, you should know how to choose?"

Bai You, unwilling to show weakness, said quickly.

"Little girl, be careful. Your father seeing me wouldn’t dare to be so presumptuous!"

Seeing the other party using the Five Luminaries Stone to suppress herself, Poison Venerate’s ugly face frowned tightly, looking even fiercer.

"Stop pretending! How could my father know an ugly old hag like you?"

Bai You’s face was full of arrogance.

The current Xuantian Sect isn’t the Xuantian Sect of old.

"Insolence!"

Poison Venerate’s eyes flashed, and she suddenly raised her palm, a green light flickering in her palm.

Her five fingers hooked like claws, suddenly grabbing towards Bai You’s haughty and charming face.

Bai You was so frightened her face changed, and she screamed.

Sikong Ran suddenly moved, his arm shaking as a fierce palm wind swept out.

With a dull thud.

As soon as their palms met, they separated.

A ghostly green appeared in Sikong Ran’s palm, and his face had darkened a bit, clearly poisoned.
