Supreme Sword Sovereign-Chapter 51 – Gu Han, the number one scapegoat in the world?

"Little Missy!"

Fatty could no longer hold back.

Already frazzled by the recent robbery, he nearly burst into tears upon hearing Ah-Sha's words.

"Please, I beg you, say something nice!"

"Brother Gu."

Jiang Feng also felt something was off.

"Ah-Sha Girl... what do you mean?"

"Nothing."

Gu Han naturally wouldn't expose Ah-Sha's secret.

"Ah-Sha just woke up, she's not herself yet. Don't mind her words, cough cough... Right."

At this point,

His expression turned a bit odd.

"Let's... stay away from Instructor Mei from now on."

There was a gulp.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

"That's not right!"

Fatty, as shrewd as he was, realized there was more to Gu Han's words.

"You can't fool Fatty! She must know something, make her explain!"

"Ah!"

Ah-Sha wasn't good at lying.

"I was mistaken just now, there's no dark aura on you, you don't have to die."

"..."

Fatty was on the verge of collapse.

With Ah-Sha's words, he became even more panicked.

To the side,

Manager Li found the whole situation quite satisfying.

Pah!

Serves you right, Fatty!

"Brother Gu."

Seeing that Gu Han was reluctant to elaborate, Jiang Feng naturally didn't press further.

"If you need help, just ask."

"Indeed!"

Manager Li nodded.

"Just state your request, and our house will do everything possible to assist you!"

"Much appreciated."

Gu Han was somewhat moved.

"But you can't help with this matter, I won't drag you into it."

Although Gu Han didn't specify,

They understood.

Ah-Sha's illness had flared up again.

They didn't know what Soul Deficiency Syndrome was, but if even Doctor Xue was at a loss, and Gu Han, who easily cured Jiang Feng's Cold Poison, was also helpless, they realized this illness was more troublesome than they had imagined!

At this moment,

Only Fatty was still not giving up.

He kept pestering Gu Han about the meaning of Ah-Sha's words.

Gu Han ignored him.

Taking Ah-Sha and Jiang Feng as guides, he gave the Capital a good tour.

...

In the inner city,

On the long street,

A quick look at /2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

Ah-Sha held a chicken leg in her left hand and another in her right, her eyes curved into crescents with joy.

Of course,

What made her happiest

Was the multitude of chicken legs Gu Han had stuffed into her Storage Ring.

Behind the group,

Fatty, worn out by Gu Han's persistence, followed.

"You two,"

He said weakly, "Have you had enough sightseeing? What's so great about this lousy place!"

"Let's go."

Seeing Ah-Sha enjoying herself,

Gu Han also remembered his main purpose.

"It's time to hunt for treasures!"

"Hunting for treasures?"

Fatty's mouth twitched, holding back his outburst.

"What treasures could there be here!"

"Did I ask you to come along?"

"..."

Fatty fell silent.

Endure!

Meanwhile, Jiang Feng and Manager Li were quite intrigued by Gu Han's so-called treasure hunting.

After some wandering,

Gu Han led them to a storefront.

Treasure Pavilion!

"Eh?"

Upon seeing Gu Han,

Fan Qi hurriedly greeted him.

"Esteemed guest, you've returned?"

Previously, he had witnessed Director Wei intervening and knew that Gu Han must have conducted significant business with Treasure Pavilion. Seeing him return, especially with Chen Ping absent, he was naturally eager to welcome this mysterious and important customer.

"Don't mind me."

Gu Han pointed at Jiang Feng.

"Just take good care of him."

"Seventh Prince? And Manager Li!"

Fan Qi then noticed the two men, his smile so wide it seemed his mouth couldn't close.

It turned out,

The esteemed guest wasn't just one person, but three!

As for Fatty... he was conveniently ignored.

"Ah-Sha."

Gu Han pointed to the pile of Mysterious Stones in the corner that no one cared for.

"Take a look, is there a treasure?"

"There is."

Ah-Sha glanced over and quietly pointed to a Mysterious Stone the size of a human head.

"Inside that one, there seems to be a treasure."

"Really?"

Gu Han's heart leapt with joy.

He had only intended to take Ah-Sha to have a look, without much hope, as the chances of finding something good inside a Mysterious Stone were slim. At worst, they would just visit all the shops in the Capital.

But unexpectedly,

There was a pleasant surprise!

And right inside the Treasure Pavilion!

Thinking of the Pavilion Master's greed and malice, he sneered inwardly.

This time...

They would bleed a fortune!

Not far away,

Seeing Gu Han and Ah-Sha scrutinizing the pile of Mysterious Stones, Jiang Feng's heart sank.

Could it be...

Indeed,

His worries came true.

"This Mysterious Stone,"

Gu Han called over to Fan Qi.

"How many Yuan Crystals?"

In an instant,

The once lively hall fell silent.

Everyone wore a strange look.

Could it be?

This guy isn't thinking of...

Even Fatty couldn't bear to watch.

"This... is this what you call treasure hunting?"

"Brother Gu."

Jiang Feng hurried over.

"The treasure hunting you mentioned... it isn't... stone gambling, is it?"

"Stone gambling?"

Gu Han was taken aback.

"That's an apt name. Don't worry, I'm just playing around."

At this moment,

The happiest person

Was none other than Fan Qi.

To him, Gu Han was no longer a valued customer, but a complete sucker!

"Esteemed guest."

His enthusiasm was even greater.

"This Mysterious Stone, priced at fifty thousand..."

Gu Han turned to leave.

"Eh?"

Fan Qi panicked.

"Esteemed guest! If you're really interested, we can negotiate the price! Eighty percent... no, seventy percent, I'll give it to you for seventy percent!"

His anxious tone

Was just like Chen Ping's earlier.

Missing out on a sucker like Gu Han, who knew when they could sell another Mysterious Stone?

"This one?"

Gu Han stopped and pointed to another Mysterious Stone, taller than a person.

"This one..."

Fan Qi cautiously glanced at him.

"Three hundred thousand..."

Done for!

Jiang Feng's heart turned cold.

This is playing?

This... is clearly addiction!

"Let's get one thing straight."

Manager Li pursed his lips.

"Our house doesn't have that many Yuan Crystals."

He spoke the truth.

Over the years, to save Jiang Feng's life, he had searched almost all the precious spiritual herbs in the Capital. The resources allocated by the royal family had long been exhausted, and even then, only because Doctor Xue often helped them out.

As for Jiang Feng,

He was a downright pauper.

And Fatty...

"Don't look at me."

He spread his hands.

"Fatty never carries Yuan Crystals when I go out, that stuff is too vulgar!"

Pah!

Everyone looked at him with disdain.

"Brother Gu."

Jiang Feng swallowed hard.

"Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

"Reconsider?"

Gu Han nodded.

"I should think it over."

With that,

He fell silent as if deep in thought.

Beside him,

Jiang Feng was anxious.

Fan Qi was expectant.

And the onlookers were just waiting for the show.

"I've decided."

After a moment,

Gu Han spoke again.

"Both stones, fifty percent off, deal or no deal?"

"..."

Jiang Feng's heart sank completely!

Given his status, the crowd wanted to laugh but didn't dare, yet the mockery in their eyes revealed their thoughts.

This wasn't just a sucker.

This was the number one fool!

"Esteemed guest..."

Fan Qi was in a bind.

"This..."

"Forget it then!"

Gu Han grabbed Ah-Sha and was about to leave.

"Sell, sell, sell!"

Fan Qi was desperate.

"Esteemed guest, we'll sell! Fifty percent off it is!"

In truth,

He was already rejoicing inside.

The Mysterious Stones had been acquired at a very low price and had been sitting there for years, effectively becoming useless junk. Even at ten percent off, it was a guaranteed profit for the Treasure Pavilion!

Selling these two Mysterious Stones,

His contribution points could shoot to the top!

Seeing Gu Han take out so many Yuan Crystals from his Storage Ring,

Jiang Feng's heart bled for him.

He felt sorry for Gu Han.

"Brother Jiang."

Gu Han patted his shoulder.

"Don't worry, once I reveal the treasure, these Yuan Crystals will naturally earn back tenfold!"

"..."

Jiang Feng and Manager Li were speechless.

Treasure?

More like a total loss!

They couldn't understand why Gu Han, who usually seemed quite wise, would be so foolish in such a trivial matter.

Eh?

On the contrary, Fatty looked suspicious.

Such a cunning and sly bastard, would he really do something unprofitable?

Could it be... he really could tell what was inside the Mysterious Stones?

Impossible!

At this moment,

The news of Gu Han's stone gambling spread like wildfire, attracting a large crowd to watch, packing the Treasure Pavilion inside and out, almost to the point of bursting.

The reason was simple.

Too curious!

How many years had it been!

The Capital hadn't seen such a foolish sucker, and they had to see for themselves!

"Hmph!"

Feeling the onlookers' gaze like they were watching a fool,

Ah-Sha felt displeased.

"Young Master will definitely reveal a treasure!"

Pfft!

Someone couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

Then,

The hall erupted with laughter.

At this moment, Jiang Feng's status could no longer intimidate them, and various comments were heard non-stop.

"A treasure? I've got to see this!"

"Not bad, not bad, if this little brother can reveal a magical treasure, that would be a huge win!"

"Magical treasure? I think at least a Heavenly Rank Technique to start!"

"Too conservative! With this little brother's skills, shouldn't he reveal an ancient immortal gold nugget?"

"..."

Hearing the crowd's ridicule,

Jiang Feng and Manager Li's expressions grew uglier.

"What are you laughing at!"

Manager Li couldn't hold back and glared at the crowd, "What does this have to do with any of you! Laugh again, and I'll slap you to death!"

Instantly,

The crowd dared not laugh.

But the mockery in their eyes grew even thicker.

Just then,

An elderly man in a white robe came down from upstairs.

It was another Director of the Treasure Pavilion, surnamed Ma.

"Director Ma."

Fan Qi quickly greeted him.

Director Ma waved his hand, smiling at Gu Han, "Esteemed guest, our Treasure Pavilion has a rule, once a Mysterious Stone is purchased, it cannot be returned or exchanged."

Clearly, he had seen Manager Li and Jiang Feng.

Afraid that Gu Han would back out,

He came to back up Fan Qi.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Fan Qi eagerly nodded.

"No returns, and no refunds!"

"Return?"

Gu Han looked at them curiously.

"Wishful thinking!"

"Then..."

Director Ma was reassured.

"Esteemed guest, would you like to open it now or take it with you?"

"Open it!"

Facing the crowd's ridicule, Gu Han remained calm, "Polish your dog eyes and watch closely!"

Pfft!

Laughter filled the hall again.

Confirmed!

This man was definitely a fool!

"Alas..."

Jiang Feng looked worried.

Well then.

Let's consider it as Gu Han paying for a lesson. After taking a loss, he'll know how deep the waters are here.

"Hehe."

Gu Han ignored them.

He took the Mysterious Stone the size of a human head in his hands, examined it carefully, and as he channeled his Spiritual Power, the stone's outer layer began to fall off.

In the blink of an eye,

The Mysterious Stone had shrunk to the size of a fist.

Everyone watched intently.

Although they knew Gu Han wouldn't reveal anything significant, their curiosity was successfully piqued.

The Mysterious Stone continued to shrink.

A glimmer of white light appeared before everyone's eyes.
