Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile-Chapter 48: The Angered Mo Chongsheng

Hearing the words of the fat buddhist disciple, the onlookers were dumbfounded, as for Mo Chongsheng, his face was black and blue.

This was the first time he had been repeatedly humiliated by two brats of Qi gathering.

"Li Zhenyuan, enough with your jokes! I don’t need any reminders from you," he roared with fury as he held back the urge to smash the bald head.

Watching him like this, Li Zhenyuan shook his head.

"If the donor doesn’t believe me, then I am helpless," he stated with disappointment.

After this, he ignored Mo Chongsheng and glanced at the strange stone with a frown.

’Why does this look familiar?’ He muttered in his heart with doubt while inspecting the stone carefully.

If it was some treasure, he wouldn’t mind joining the fun.

"I give up on the bidding."

At this moment, Ye Chen’s voice echoed, stunning everyone.

They couldn’t help but look at him only to see him taking back ten thousand mid-grade spiritual stones and looking at the stall owner with a smile.

"Shouldn’t you announce the winner now?" He inquired calmly.

Hearing this, the stall owner’s face turned pale. He didn’t expect Ye Chen to give up on the bidding.

Not just him, but everyone also didn’t accept this.

They were all puzzled by his behavior as they didn’t understand why he was bidding for the stone in the first place.

If he just wanted to make trouble, then why wasn’t he afraid of losing money, and if there are some secrets inside the stone, why was he giving up now?

No matter how they thought, they failed to figure out anything.

"Why are you acting mute? Hurry up and announce the results," Ye Chen stated with a frown as he saw the stall owner being silent.

Hearing him, the stall owner’s face became red, and he hesitantly glanced at his sect master, whose face was filled with rage.

"Announce the results!" Mo Chongsheng said with a frosty look.

This auction was conducted in a great market and in front of everyone. If he really didn’t abide by the rules, then all of the sect’s disciples would be kicked out from the market, and no one would be able to sell anything or even buy anything.

The stall owner also knew this; hence, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only announce the winner.

"8,600 mid-grade spiritual stones once!"

"8,600... twice!"

"8,600… thrice!"

"The item has been sold out," he announced with a dark expression. His eyes filled with hatred as he glanced at Ye Chen, who was smiling faintly beside the three beauties.

"Here, collect the money!"

At this moment, Mo Chongsheng gave him 8,600 mid-grade spiritual stones. All the transactions in the stall were recorded in a jade slip and later given to the great market officials to count everything.

If the spiritual stones were less than the count, then this could be concluded as unfair trading, and the punishment would ensue on whoever is responsible.

Because of this, Mo Chongsheng gave what he bid and didn’t dare to play tricks.

The stall owner was also aware of the rules, so he didn’t delay and hurriedly took the money before registering it into a Jade Slip.

After this, with some hesitation, he gave the strange stone to Mo Chongsheng.

With this thing being sold out, there was no way he could keep it in the stall and neither on himself; if not, this would be unfair conduct.

Mo Chongsheng also knew this, so he took the stone from him. It was only the size of an adult’s palm and was slightly shiny.

Except for the strange symbols on it, there was nothing special.

"Isn’t this stone an excrement of a rare stone lizard?"

At this moment a voice rang out, and everyone turned towards the fat buddhist, who spoke with a strange expression.

He finally recognized the stone. It was really excrement from the stone lizard.

The stone lizards were an extinct species, and inside the golden river kingdom there were none of them.

If not for his master talking about it to embarrass his friend for keeping shit for years, he wouldn’t have known this.

"It really is the excrement of a stone lizard! No wonder I found it familiar. Stone lizards have a disgusting habit of carving strange symbols on their excrement. My master’s friend kept this shit for years only to discover this fact later," Li Zhenyuan said as he shook his head along with some fat on his body.

Watching him, the onlookers were speechless. But they didn’t care about his fat body and gave strange looks to Mo Chongsheng, who was holding ’shit’ in his hand.

"You bastard! What are you talking about? I dug this stone from an ancient ruin, not from some beast cave! You better not cause trouble here; if not, it won’t be good for you!" The stall owner threatened with rage.

His face was also slightly pale at this moment because he noticed Mo Chongsheng’s cold gaze. There was no way he would be able to live if he really sold shit to his sect master.

"Donor, what I have said is the truth. If you want to deny it, feel free to do so, but if you want to threaten me, then I won’t mind bringing my master here to prove my words," Li Zhenyuan said coldly.

Hearing him, the stall owner almost spat out a mouthful of blood and cursed himself for digging his grave.

He even wanted to cry, but no tears came out.

’Damn it, why do I have to provoke these two bastards?’ he thought with regret.

If only he could’ve denied politely, this would’ve been easy to solve.

"This stone really is the excrement of a stone lizard. If you don’t believe it, you can break it in half, and it would let out a foul stench."

At this moment, Ye Chen spoke calmly.

He had recognized the stone from the beginning because it can be used to concoct poison.

Of course, this wasn’t enough to attract his attention. The reason he was interested in this stone was because it had an aura of a spiritual mountain.

However, he never planned to buy it since the aura wouldn’t lead him anywhere. It’s just that he wanted to use this stone to cause trouble.

Although Mo Chongsheng’s arrival and bidding on the stone was unexpected, he didn’t care and prepared to make him lose some money.

Hearing his words, the onlookers understood that he had no interest in the stone and was just using it to cause trouble. Thinking of this, they all glanced at Mo Chongsheng, whose face was filled with killing intent.

He had already thrown the stone in his hand, and when it broke, it let out a foul stench, which confirmed Ye Chen’s words.

There was no way anyone would feel good after buying ’shit’ for 8,600 mid-grade spiritual stones. Moreover, they even purchased it from their own sect’s disciple.

"Ye Chen, do you really think that Zhen Yunqi can protect you forever!?" Mo Chongsheng roared with indignation, not bothering to hide his intention to kill him.

In response, Ye Chen crossed his arms and chuckled faintly.

"Mo Chongsheng, even if she can’t protect me forever, there is no way a dog like you can kill me. If you don’t believe, then you are free to try," he taunted without any fear.

Watching him like this, Mo Chongsheng’s face turned black and blue.

"Good! Good! Don’t let me see you outside the city! If not, I will definitely kill you even if Zhen Yunqi is there!" He declared with hatred.

"Oh, what if I am also there?"

At this moment, Jing Xiao spoke with a cold smile.

The onlookers couldn’t help but gasp at this. Although there were rumors of Ye Chen being her secret husband, no one really believed it.

The only reason they spread it was because they were bored after fighting and cultivating all day long.

So now seeing Jing Xiao going against Mo Chongsheng made them surprised. The Frostfire Sect, after all, was a second-grade sect.

The third-grade sect were like ants in front of them, especially the business one. Although it had been only fifty years since the Frostfire sect became second grade, it was still not something the third-grade sect could handle.

Mo Chongsheng’s face couldn’t help but turn black with anger again. He had never expected that she would not hesitate to go against him just because of some Qi-gathering cultivator.

Thinking of how much effort he put into wooing her, he couldn’t help but become even angrier.

"Sect master, sect master, something bad happened!"

At this moment a male disciple in a purple robe came running with panic.

Watching him like this, Mo Chongsheng’s anger soared further; however, he didn’t lose his mind and took a breath to calm his anger.

"What happened?!" he inquired coldly.

"This… sect master, the first wife… she… She eloped with the gardener and spread the news of this inside and outside the sect. She even gave the reason and said it was because you don’t last long in bed," the male disciple explained with fear and panic.

Hearing him Mo Chongsheng’s face twisted with wrath. He thought someone was playing a prank on him. But when he heard the last words, he understood it was the truth.

"Zhao Rui! How dare you!!!" He roared angrily, his eyes turning red with indignation.
