Eternal Life from Talisman Painting-Chapter 253 - 165: All My Alternate Identities

"Being targeted!"

Upon sensing someone had fixed their gaze on him, Lin Chang’an immediately let out a cold laugh. In this market, it wasn’t the first time someone tried to make trouble.

But in the end, they all paid the price, especially with Celestial Profound City backing them.

As time went by, their East District Market in Celestial Profound City became quite renowned.

"There are currently two Golden Core Cultivators and two Fake Pill Cultivators in Celestial Profound City, yet someone still dares to act blindly."

Lin Chang’an shook his head. Half of this black market’s notorious reputation was due to the people backing it, as well as the deterrence of six Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

"Fellow Daoist, you’ve followed me all the way, do you really dare to commit wrongdoing here?"

Disguised as the esteemed Pill Master, an elder with a hoarse voice by Lin Chang’an, he had unknowingly arrived at the center of the black market.

At this point, if a conflict erupted, the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators currently stationed at the black market, along with the formations, were enough to deal with the tracker.

"Fellow Daoist, there’s a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!"

The tracker, upon realizing he’d been discovered, panicked and waved his hands repeatedly. He hadn’t expected this Pill Master at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment to actually notice him.

Fortunately, he truly meant no harm.

"I just saw that Fellow Daoist had a lot of pills and wanted to make a deal, almost causing a misunderstanding."

Qin Feng, hidden in his black robe, wore a face full of remorse and then pointed to a nearby tavern, as if to share something casually.

The location of this tavern also indicated that he had no other intentions.

Lin Chang’an frowned, showing an impatient demeanor, turned to leave, but after the other party handed over an item, he was momentarily stunned.

"A Tier Two Demon Core, Fellow Daoist is indeed generous."

Qin Feng was also in considerable pain, but since his market had no such Tier Two Pill Master, he could only use this generous method to win favor.

"Fellow Daoist, is my sincerity enough?"

Lin Chang’an, toying with the Tier Two Crystal Core at his fingertips, couldn’t help but ponder silently what this man was planning, to be so willing to spend.

Upon secretly executing his Cultivation Technique, he instantly sensed a familiar mana aura and was taken aback.

Qin Feng!

Good heavens, looking at this figure in front of him, concealed by a black robe, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but frown.

This old fox, scheming in his market, with no good intentions!

"Very well, Fellow Daoist, I see your sincerity."

Then Lin Chang’an, still disguised as the venerable Pill Master, nodded hoarsely and proceeded with the other party to the nearby tavern.

Yet inwardly, he let out a cold laugh, wondering what this old fox was up to.

...

The Tavern.

Inside a private room, Lin Chang’an ordered a table full of the finest Spirit Flesh and Spirit Wine, a scene that made Qin Feng curse inwardly.

This group of unscrupulous loose cultivators is indeed uninformed, wanting to take advantage of even the slightest bit of Spirit Stones.

They truly underestimate him.

No matter how bad the Qin Family might be, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse.

"Fellow Daoist, apologies for the previous offense, let me drink first as a sign of respect."

This Qin Feng, no doubt a cultivator in the market trade, showed a bit of flair, smiled broadly, and drained his glass in one go.

There was no trace of the previous rogue behavior when he came here, whining and complaining.

And Lin Chang’an, still posing as the venerable Pill Master, nodded lightly.

"My dear Fellow Daoist, with such a grand gesture, surely you have a request, why not state your purpose?"

Yet at this moment, Qin Feng waved his hand boldly and said:

"No need to be so formal, Fellow Daoist, let’s drink heartily first. There’s no rush for my purpose, even if nothing comes of it, at least we’ve made a friend."

Lin Chang’an secretly laughed, Qin Feng’s face could truly change quickly.

But seeing as today he stealthily came into their market, and was so generous, while thinking of the situation in the West District Market recently, Lin Chang’an had already figured things out.

But, there’s no harm in accepting it.

"Alright, Fellow Daoist is truly straightforward."

Lin Chang’an, still in disguise as the venerable Pill Master, showed no hesitation, and started indulging in the Spirit Flesh and Spirit Wine.

This scene left Qin Feng speechless, but further convinced him that this group, who kept a low profile, were probably of loose cultivator origin.

Any cultivator with a bit of heritage wouldn’t act this way.

After a feast, Lin Chang’an, who usually didn’t drink much, had drunk five pots.

However, with a side glance at this calm and composed Qin Feng, Lin Chang’an also nodded quietly.

He had underestimated this person.

Pale in comparison to his usual fieriness and whimpering behavior, today’s demeanor was completely different.

"Fellow Daoist enjoys the wine so much, why not order two more pots?"

With a beaming smile, Qin Feng was met with Lin Chang’an, still in character as the venerable Pill Master, smiling and shaking his head.

"Alright, dear Fellow Daoist, surely today isn’t just about a simple exchange of pills, is it?"

Lin Chang’an had no interest in continuing, so he might as well confront the matter head-on.

And Qin Feng, full of smiles, clasped his hands and said:

"Truth be told, I’ve come to invite you, Fellow Daoist..."

"To your market!?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang’an inwardly noted, but disguising as the Pill Master, he let out a mocking hoarse laughter.

"Fellow Daoist, don’t be ridiculous. Celestial Profound City is vast, but black markets in the shadows like this are limited. Do you think just a meal and a demon core would get me to go with you?

I’m still wary you might be a Tribulation Cultivator, plotting to rob and kill."

"You jest, Fellow Daoist." For this Pill Master’s caution, Qin Feng was not at all discouraged, instead, smiling broadly.

"I sincerely invite you, and I’m willing to purchase your pills at a price half a fold higher if you agree to come."

"Dear Fellow Daoist, you’re keeping secrets, yet expect me to take such a huge risk; that’s the real joke here."

With a faint smile, Lin Chang’an’s words didn’t show the slightest bit of wavering.

His demeanor was completely normal.
