Chapter 1050: Chapter 727 Pretending to be a Pig to Eat a Tiger?
“At the beginning, when ‘Sir’ mentioned that they could offer one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
“The Ghostfaced True Monarch seemed very excited, as if shocked by the offer of one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
“Later, at the time ‘Sir’ handed over the one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones, the Ghostfaced True Monarch’s behavior also appeared quite suspicious.”
“Even I, as a junior, detected something amiss through the changes in this person’s demeanor on these two occasions.”
“This is not the reaction one would expect from a Golden Elixir Master upon seeing one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
“Even though I am but a Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
“Yet, having always been in the Treasure Pavilion, I am well-versed and experienced.”
“Upon seeing these one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones, I wouldn’t be as shocked as he was.”
“From this, it is evident that his identity is not as he claims, certainly not that of a Golden Elixir Master.”
“Perhaps, this person is actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and moreover, one without much experience.”
“How could such a Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
“Possibly come to possess a cultivator’s Golden Core?”
“Unless, this person has tremendous luck, stumbled upon a Golden Elixir cave mansion, and took away all the treasures inside.”
“Only then can one explain why he indeed has a cultivator’s Golden Core.”
In the midst of casual conversation, Xiao Qing’s sudden remark prompted He Song to also recall everything he had seen in the mansion of the Ghostfaced True Monarch.
According to what Xiao Qing had said.
He Song indeed noticed the abnormality of the Ghostfaced True Monarch.
Whether it was the change in the True Monarch’s expression after they mentioned one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
Or his immediate response to He Song, agreeing to sell the cultivator’s Golden Core for the price of one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones afterward.
Or even the marvelous expression on his face when he received the one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
All of these moments quietly emerged in He Song’s memory now.
At that time, He Song had already suspected the real identity of the Ghostfaced True Monarch.
However, back then, He Song was primarily focused on the cultivator’s Golden Core and did not speculate further.
But now, hearing Xiao Qing mention this subject and share her own speculations.
He Song reconsidered the matter once again.
The unusual expression on the Ghostfaced True Monarch’s face at that time flashed across his mind.
He Song’s face remained composed.
But internally, he had some judgment about his own previous thoughts and those of Xiao Qing at this moment.
According to He Song’s thinking.
The likelihood of the Ghostfaced True Monarch being a Golden Elixir Master was actually not very high anymore.
Considering the True Monarch’s reaction to those one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones, it seemed more probable that he was a Foundation Establishment True Person.
Nonetheless, even if he felt that this was the case.
He Song didn’t find anything wrong with it.
A Foundation Establishment True Person is a Foundation Establishment True Person.’
Being able to save tens of thousands of spirit stones, even if the Ghostfaced True Monarch was truly just a Foundation Establishment True Person, He Song wouldn’t care about his specific cultivation level.”
After all, had the Ghostfaced True Monarch’s cultivation really been that of the Golden Elixir Realm, it would actually be quite difficult for him to obtain the cultivator’s Golden Core for the price of one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
In He Song’s estimation, the price of this cultivator’s Golden Core was actually between one hundred and fifty thousand and two hundred thousand.”
If the Ghostfaced True Monarch’s cultivation had really been at the level of the Golden Elixir Realm, he would have surely bargained with He Song.”
Then, He Song would definitely have had to pay a larger price to acquire the cultivator’s Golden Core from him.”
And because of this.
When He Song realized this point.
He actually felt a bit of relief about the true cultivation level of the Ghostfaced True Monarch.”
‘Thank goodness,’ he thought.
Because of his own cultivation level, the Ghostfaced True Monarch did not bargain with him.”
Otherwise, He Song would probably have had to pay a much greater price to obtain the cultivator’s Golden Core from the Ghostfaced True Monarch.”
As for the Ghostfaced True Monarch, whose cultivation was merely at the Foundation Establishment Realm, yet possessed a cultivator’s Golden Core.”
He Song had his own conjectures in mind.”
Just like Xiao Qing had said, He Song also believed that the Ghostfaced True Monarch likely found a Golden Elixir cave mansion by himself.”
And also completely plundered that cave mansion.”
Only then could it explain why he had a cultivator’s Golden Core.”
As for the matter Xiao Qing mentioned and her purpose in speaking such words, He Song quickly formed an answer in his mind.”
Xiao Qing having learned so much from him about how to break through to the Golden Elixir Realm, was now sharing the matter of the Ghostfaced True Monarch with him.”
Perhaps she wanted to return the favor and draw his attention to the Ghostfaced True Monarch.”

After all.
According to Xiao Qing’s own assessment, the Ghostfaced True Monarch must be a Foundation Establishment cultivator without a doubt.”
And possibly a loose cultivator with little exposure, as evidenced by his loss of composure upon seeing the one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
And Xiao Qing, based on He Song’s investigation, had already advanced from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to mid-stage Foundation Establishment.”
Now, she was probably not far from the late-stage of Foundation Establishment.”
The current Xiao Qing had become a powerful mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
If we add the two Golden Armor Guards she has now, she theoretically had the ability to encircle and kill a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
Moreover.
Since Xiao Qing was a member of the Treasure Pavilion.”
She must also have friends within the Treasure Pavilion or outside in the wider world.”
