As the male disciple shouted loudly, it attracted the attention of many nearby cultivators.

They all understood that a treasure was found, and the stall owner was unwilling to sell it. However, the rules clearly didn’t allow the stall owners to do this; hence, all he could do was increase the competition by letting others know.
Although this was a disgusting trick, everyone blamed the buyer for being an idiot. He should have bought the things without letting the stall owner know.
However, Ye Chen didn’t seem to understand what was happening and let out a smile.
"Deal, I will buy that stone for 100 mid-grade spiritual stones," he agreed without hesitation.
But of course, others will not just sit and watch.
"Wait! I am also interested in that stone!" At this moment a young man intervened.
Witnessing all of this, Li Mei was angered.
Even though she was naive, how could she not understand how disgusting the stall owner was?
She wanted to say something, but Lan Ming stopped her.
"Sister MeiMei, don’t worry; brother Chen must have his plans. Also look, he is calm from the beginning," she assured her.
Hearing this, Li Mei became relieved; however, she still remained annoyed and glanced coldly at the stall owner.
"Haha, customer, you see this person is also interested in this strange stone, so why not both of you bid? The highest bidder will take it home, and if anyone else wants this stone, they can also place a bid," the male disciple said with a laugh.
The young man who just spoke now frowned with displeasure; however, he didn’t refute him and inspected the stone carefully.
He didn’t know if this stone really had secrets or not. If there is, he won’t mind bidding, but if he couldn’t see through anything, then he would rather not bid.
After all, 100 mid-grade spiritual stones were a lot for something unknown.
The onlookers also thought the same and inspected the stone carefully. However, no matter what, they weren’t able to see anything.
"There is nothing special except the strange symbols on it; I think the stall owner is deliberately making a fuss!"
"Yeah, maybe he wanted to use this as an excuse to garner attention and sell his items."
The cultivators who were interested in treasure didn’t give the stall owner a good look.
Of course, some remained skeptical and waited for any changes. If there is someone bidding, they won’t mind tasting the waters.
At this moment the male disciple’s face was a bit ugly; he blamed himself for being too hasty.
’Damn it, why didn’t I think he might be here to create trouble?’ He thought with regret and looked at Ye Chen with a vicious look.
Ye Chen felt his gaze and smiled calmly. No one could guess what he was thinking, and he just waited for everyone to finish the inspection.
The young man who wanted to purchase the stone was frowning with a difficult look. No matter how he observed the stone, it was just a normal one.
Although the age was older, there was nothing special except the strange symbols.
Thinking of this, he cast a deep look at Ye Chen and gritted his teeth.
"I bid 110 mid-grade spiritual stones," he shouted, making the onlookers stunned at his decision.
But before they could think of something, a voice rang out.
"200 mid-grade spiritual stones," Ye Chen placed a bid with a calm look.
Hearing him, everyone was shocked; even the stall owner didn’t expect he would double the price without hesitation.
Thinking of this, he became sure there must be some hidden secret inside the strange stone.
Not only him but others also reached this conclusion. However, they hesitated; after all, the sum of 200 mid-grade spiritual stones was quite high.
Moreover, they didn’t know what was special about it.
What if Ye Chen bought it for fun? Wouldn’t they suffer a loss?
But of course, there were courageous people who liked to gamble.
"I bid 210 mid-grade spiritual stones."
"I bid 220…"
"230…"
"240…"
The bid kept increasing, and it didn’t stop until 270.
"300 mid-grade spiritual stones," Ye Chen once again placed his bid calmly.
Hearing him, everyone went silent, and they hesitated whether to continue bidding or not.
At this moment a commotion sounded out from behind, attracting everyone’s attention.
They all saw Mo Chongsheng walking in their direction with a black and blue face. Behind him followed Zhang Hua, who lowered his head in fear.
Then there were also onlookers following behind with gloating looks and whispering to each other.
Just a while ago, Mo Chongsheng met a Buddhist disciple. No one knows if it was on purpose or not, but the Buddhist disciple said his yang qi is impure, and he should not visit the messy places at night.
Although his words were different from Ye Chen’s, everyone connected them together, not caring about the truth.
Mo Chongsheng knew that the matter got worse because of some stinky Buddhist disciple; however, he was helpless because the buddhist disciple was from the first-grade sect.
No matter how angry he was, he didn’t dare to take it out on him. At least not in front of everyone.
In the end, he could reply to him politely before taking his leave with a black and green face.
However, he swore that he would skin that buddhist disciple and Ye Chen alive.
"Sect master, he is that Ye Chen who was spouting nonsense!" Zhang Hua shouted with anger.
Watching him like this, Mo Chongsheng snorted coldly.
He had run away before because someone intimidated him with their sect master, and now that he was with him, he was acting like nothing happened.
However, he didn’t say anything now and glanced at Ye Chen with a cold look.
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, which was later replaced with jealousy and hatred. He never expected that someone handsome like him would exist.
"Are you that Ye Chen, who is spouting nonsense about me?" He inquired with a cold look.
Hearing him, Ye Chen gave him a strange glance and shook his head.
"No, I am not that Ye Chen; you must have gotten the wrong person," he denied with a faint chuckle.
Watching him like this, the onlookers almost laughed out loud.
Especially after watching the twitching veins on Mo Chongsheng’s face, they couldn’t help but praise him silently in their hearts.
He was in the Qi-gathering realm, yet he dared to talk like this. Many wondered if he was ignorant and unafraid of death.
"Impudent boy! How dare you lie to me? It seems your parents did not teach you how to speak!" Mo Chongsheng roared angrily.
While hearing him, Ye Chen shook his head with a helpless look.
"My parents really didn’t teach me how to speak. But what about you? Don’t you already know who I am, yet you are asking such a stupid question? Didn’t your parents teach you then? Oh wait, I forgot how a stupid person like you could learn anything from your parents."
"Also, when did I lie? I said I am not Ye Chen, who spouted nonsense, but it didn’t mean I am not Ye Chen, who told the truth about your cuckolding," he mocked with a sarcastic tone.
After that, he didn’t bother with him and turned towards the stall owner.
"Why are you looking like you have eaten dog shit? Hurry up and announce the results. I bid 300 mid-grade spiritual stones," he said with a cold look.
Hearing him, the male disciple’s expression turned uglier; however, he couldn’t do anything. Even if their sect master intervened, no one could stop Ye Chen from purchasing what he had bid for.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth in anger.
Just as he was about to announce the results, a figure appeared in front of him. It was none other than Mo Chongsheng who was boiling with anger.
His face looked like he wanted to eat someone, but no matter what, he couldn’t make a move in the great market.
Moreover, he didn’t forget Ye Chen was a disciple of Zhen Yunqi. If he did something openly, his life would be in danger just like a few years ago.
At that time, he had decided to pursue Zhen Yunqi, but who would’ve thought not even a day had passed and she almost killed him? If not for the fact his father saved him from her, the grass on his grave would already be a few meters tall.
Thinking of this fear flashed in his eyes; however, he quickly concealed it.
"Ye Chen, you will regret spreading rumors about me!" He stated in a chilling tone as killing intent flashed in his eyes.
But of course, Ye Chen wasn’t afraid.
"You can make me regret? Hehe, what a joke! If any cuckolded dog said this, I might believe it, but you, a cuckolded husband, don’t have any right to say this," he said with a disdainful look, not even bothering to hide his arrogance.
Behind him Li Mei and Lan Ming were shocked. They didn’t expect him to talk like this. However, they didn’t dislike it; on the contrary, their heartbeat paced watching his domineering and arrogant look.
