Chapter 443: Chapter 247: Artifact Refining Genius Fang Hao_1

Li Xuan glanced at the chubby teenager who wore a mysterious and sneaky expression on his face. His mouth twitched slightly, just from the boy’s demeanor, it was easy to conclude that he wasn’t selling any legitimate merchandise.

As if worried that Li Xuan wouldn’t know who Young Master Shen was, the chubby teenager ventured to add in a low voice, “From a prominent family, the Shen family’s Shen Haizhou. And, this is the treasure that even he can’t help praising!”

Shen Haizhou?

Li Xuan raised an eyebrow. Isn’t it the same young master from a prominent family that Xu Yan met in Ling Domain?

His curiosity got the better of him, so with a smile, he began,”Oh, what’s this treasure that even Young Master Shen can’t stop praising?”

“Big brother, come, come, let me show you.”

The teenager’s face lit up with joy; another potential sale came knocking! The fame of Young Master Shen was just too practical to use!

Reckless of any trickery, Li Xuan followed the young, chubby teenager into the simple store.

“What’s your name?”

Li Xuan looked around the modest shop, cluttered with all manner of forge materials as well as some strangely-shaped items.

“Big brother, I’m called Fang Hao.”

As Fang Hao spoke, he quickly closed the shop’s door, anxious that Li Xuan might misunderstand, and explained, “This treasure needs to be viewed in dimmer light for a more enjoyable experience.”

With that, he pulled out a box from behind the counter, opened it up, and removed a box about a foot long and half a finger thick from inside.

The box had handles on both sides that could be gripped with both hands.

Fang Hao extended his hand to the rear of the box and pulled out two legs, placing the box on the table.

Sleazily and mysteriously, he announced, “Big brother, you need to look carefully. This is a treasure I’ve painstakingly researched, even Young Master Shen couldn’t stop singing its praises.”

He then displayed a jade badge that hung by his waist, announcing, “See this? It’s a gift from Young Master Shen. My relationship with him runs deep.”

Li Xuan could only laugh helplessly. Fang Hao was obviously using Shen Haizhou’s identity to fend off potential rivals. And the jade badge hanging by his waist indeed seemed like a badge from a prominent family.

In Ling Domain, a place with strict hierarchical rankings, Fang Hao, backed by Shen Haizhou’s identity, could indeed ward off many malicious individuals.

His curiosity piqued, he looked at the box on the table. It was a perfect square, with handles on both sides, and the front was smooth, resembling a mirror.

“This is an artifact.”

The box was actually an artifact, but he could only guess at its function.

It didn’t seem like a weapon.

“Oh, I want to see how this treasure managed to earn Young Master Shen’s praises.”

Li Xuan said, chuckling.

“Watch closely; it won’t disappoint you.”

A sleazy smile spread across Fang Hao’s face.

He saw as Fang Hao gripped one of the box’s handles and channeled his cultivation technique, pouring a surge of power into the artifact within the box.

Out of the blue, the smooth side of the box brightened, bringing forth a beautiful figure on its surface which was soon revealed to be an exquisite, undressed woman.

Li Xuan’s mouth twitched. Although he had his suspicion due to Fang Hao’s lascivious demeanor, upon seeing the actual scene, he could help but burst into bemused laughter.

Just when he thought that was it, a lewdly dressed woman appeared on the mirror surface of the box, Fang Hao let out a chuckle and the light flashed again on the mirror.

This time, there were two women, writhing together, their bodies soft and postures variable.

This time, Li Xuan was genuinely surprised.

This reminded him of X-rated movies from his past life; aside from the people on the mirror screen being drawings instead of real people and the lack of sound, everything else was not different.

“How is it? Quite a treasure, huh?”

Fang Hao smirked sneakily.

In the box’s mirror, two beautiful women twisted together, and then another pair replaced the previous, continuously changing.

After watching Fang Hao’s demonstration, Li Xuan realized that the scenes in this artifact were limited, the entwining actions of the women were also limited.

Obviously, it was subject to limitations.

“A fixed price, a hundred thousand spirit crystals.”

Fang Hao announced, his face full of expectation.

Looking at Fang Hao, Li Xuan sank into thought. Is this guy an artifact refining genius?

“Did you create this artifact?”

“Of course!”

Fang Hao immediately beamed with pride, and stated, “In the entire Ling Domain, besides me, no one can refine it. It is unfortunate, though, that the images are limited. Still, I will improve it.”

The more Li Xuan looked at Fang Hao, the more he felt like the chubby boy was a talented individual, and discerned that the fourth disciple he was looking for might be right in front of his eyes?

But, he needed more tests.

Fang Hao was not extraordinarily powerful, only just stepping into the realm of Great Grandmaster realm.

Considering his age, this level of strength made him a prodigy among Loose Cultivators. However, laid against Spirit Sects and prominent families, he would be considered in the upper-middle range.

“Besides this artifact, do you have others?”

Li Xuan asked.

“What kind of artifact do you need?”

Without beating around the bush, Fang Hao pulled out a box from behind the counter.

Selling even one artifact was a win. He had recently purchased a batch of materials and was completely broke.

Young Master Shen hadn’t shown up for quite some time; he wondered what he was up to.

Without Young Master Shen as the ‘fat sheep’, his artifacts couldn’t be sold.

“See this?”

Fang Hao took out an artifact that resembled spectacles, put it on, and channeled his cultivation technique. The artifact suddenly emitted a ball of light that shot toward the wall, illuminating the gloomy store.

“Essential when entering a dark place. Although it consumes a bit too much, it’s really useful.”

Li Xuan’s mouth twitched. This artifact was indeed novel, but its large consumption made it rather pointless. Which martial artist venturing into a dark place for exploration wouldn’t constantly maintain their peak state to deal with potential crises?
