Gate of Immortality

Chapter 83: Battle of eyesight

Yang Shi's eyes became wide from shock. He never expected that the second prince of Azure Feather Ancient Kingdom would have an interest in Bai Ruxue's constitution.

" Judging from your expression, you didn't know. I can't tell you more than this. So, You still want to take away Miss Ruxue? I mean, I can give the appropriate price for the thing you have granted us. Women, Money, Cultivation resources, anything you wish." Xia Rong smiled as she gave out her conditions.

Yang Shi took a big gulp of tea and leaned back on his chair. He pondered for a while. What Xia Rong is offering isn't bad at all. Yang Shi really doesn't want to mess with the royal household. 

He came from the earth and had read a thing called " History Book." He had read the politics of ancient dynasties, How outsiders muddled with the affairs of Kingdoms and got in a huge mess, which costed their lives.

He could even use Bai Ruxue as a bargaining chip with the Second Prince. " Hmm, But then, It would be bad to a talented girl to perish like this." Yang Shi thought. As he has the memory of Samsara Emperor - He has a method to transform Bai Ruxue's Pure Yin Maiden's physique into Nine Yin Emperyean Physique.

She will become a cultivation genius in no time. Yang Shi is a bit reluctant to let go of such talent.

" Also she is beautiful. Tsk Tsk, Such beauty... Not to mention, Me and she have a deal." Yang Shi smiled.

" I still chose Bai Ruxue." Yang Shi finally answered. Xia Rong blinked her eyes But didn't say anything.

" Well, Why should I fear the Secon Prince. It's not I am weak. And if the situation became worse, I can just run away from here." Yang Shi laughed.

" Since this is your wish, I won't deny it. You can take her away." Xia Rong lightly said.

" Well, I have prepared a little surprise for her." Yang Shi grinned. Since his work has done, He came back from the Hundred Flower Lake. But as he was on the road, He suddenly stopped at the sight of someone. He saw an old man, who was smiling at him. Yang Shi massaged his glabella as he and the old man entered a nearby inn.

While sitting at the table, Yang Shi became a bit surprised as he saw a black clothed figure stood beside Old Ghost. Yang Shi couldn't see the gender, even after he used his Celestial view.

That person covered with black cloth and wore a straw hat. Assuming his gender is quite difficult.

Either his Celestial View is very low, or, This person's cultivation is higher.

" Tsk, It's just a cloth made by aura hiding metal. I can't more embarrassed for you. I gave you the Celestial View technique, yet you are so useless. The golden egg snorted. "It is just a cultivator of eight stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm."

" So, That's the reason." Yang Shi understood. He looked at Old Ghost and asked, " This gentleman?" The black clothed person coughed roughly as the Old ghost smiled.

" Ah, S...He is my assistant. You can say, He came here to check the goods." The old ghost smiled.

" Whoa whoa, You didn't agree with the deal yet." Yang Shi became a bit surprised.

" Well, Since I asked you to come here, I naturally agreed." Old Ghost harrumphed.

" Well, It seems my price is a bit low." Yang Shi clicked his tongue. Old Ghost's eyes widened.

" What? Do you think the price is small? You even know..." Befoe Old Ghost could complete his word, Yang Shi cut in.

" Oh please, Sine you are willing to buy this much from me, It's clear that you are no pushover. Even Hundred Gold Pavilion might not able to fetch that much gold coin. But you? Tsk." Yang Shi snickered. Even the black-clothed person chuckled.

" Fine. Enough chi chat. Can you show me the goods?" Old Ghost asked.

" This way, Customer." Yang Shi smiled as the trio went to a quiet room. Yang Shi's eye shone a bit as he saw a silvery bow on the back of black clothed man. " It seems your choice of weapon is a bow?" Yang Shi spoke first. The Black clothed man remained silent till now. Hearing Yang Shi's question, that person looked at him and nodded.

" You must have pretty keen eyesight, eh?" Yang Shi tried to talk with that person, But the person didn't answer.

" Indeed. He has very powerful eyesight, and he also practices a technique named " Hundred Miles Vision." Old Ghost elaborate.

" Ah, I heard about the technique. He must be a powerful archer." Yang Shi laughed. " Yes, You can say so." Old Ghost also beamed. The Black clothed figure only shrugged.

" Here are all the stuff." Yang Shi waved his hand as huge boxes appeared from thin air. The Black clothed person opened them.

" Hmm, Sabers, Swords, Throwing daggers and nine spears. Everything at its right quantity. Umm, Where is the main thing?" Old Ghost asked as he stroked his beard.

" Ah, Here." Yang Shi clicked his tongue as he took out another box from his Spatial Ring. The old Ghost opened the box eagerly. A slight golden hue wan emanating from it.

" Ah, Golden string Crossbows." The Old ghost picked one and looked carefully.

" This is a hell of a weapon. Just think, Hundred Primordial Spirit realm soldier, Who are veterans in guerrilla warfare combined with these Spirit grade crossbows... Tch, I can't even think of the outcome." Yang Shi clicked his tongue.

" Hoho, Your mind is pretty sharp." Old Ghost couldn't help but grin. But at that moment, The Black clothed person opened his mouth.

" Why there are only 99 crossbows? Where is the last one?" He asked with a raspy voice. His voice sounded a bit unnatural.

" Ah, I kept one for myself. You can't be that stingy." Yang Shi chided.

" Why are you using crossbows? Aren't you a saber user?" The Black clothed person raised his voice as he looked at Yang Shi's Heaven Calamity saber.

" I use both Sword and Saber. And I am also proficient in archery. An assassin needs to be compatible with every weapon." Yang Shi sneered.

" Hmph, You quite boastful, aren't you?" The Black clothed person chuckled. Old Ghost remained silent as he observed the situation with interest.

" Reall?" Why don't we have a match with your bow and my crossbow?" Yang Shi snickered.

" Why should I lower myself to you?" The Black clothed person didn't budge.

" If you won, I will cut my price to half." Yang Shi stated. The Black clothed person stared at Yang Shi with interest.

" Of course, That's when you win. If you lose... Keke." Yang Shi grinned but didn't say anything else.

" Is it?" Then let's start." Twisting his arm, He took off the bow from his back. He took the arrow and pulled the string like lightning. He looked at a building three hundred meters away and fired his arrow.

With a blink of an eye, The arrow vanished in the darkness.

" With my arrow, I can target the teacup, Which is inside a room in that building. I will admit defeat if you can just target the room." The Black Clothed person coldly said.

Yang Shi smiled as he took out a Golden String Crossbow and loaded it. His purplish eyes became azure as he stared at the distance. The Old Ghost suddenly felt a bad feeling.

Holding the crossbow like a gun, Yang Shi fired it.
