Chapter 331: Chapter 324 Talisman_1


    Despite Tang Yan’s not insignificant official position, within the city, he could only just barely be considered middle ss.


    Because the Tang Familycked a true powerhouse and a strong economic foundation, Tang Yan was hardly different from the grassroots level.


    If he wanted to establish rtionships with some of the real power yers in the city, he might not even make it through their doors.


    There was no need to mention top-tier noble families like the Fang Family and the Lu Family. Even if Tang Yan’s official rank were to be raised by two more levels, he still wouldn’t catch the eye of these people. To put it more harshly, Fang Lian wouldn’t even give him a second nce.


    Delivering a visitation card and having a steward receive him would already be considered good treatment.


    There was virtually no chance that Fang Lian would meet with him personally.


    The thresholds of top-tier noble families were infamously high.


    After chatting with Tang Yan for a while, Qin Niu stood up to take his leave. Tang Yan apanied him all the way to the steps outside the door, watching as he left with the half-grown water buffalo.


    A different kind of brilliance shone on Tang Yan’s face, filled with anticipation for the future.


    “Cai Xian really has a discerning eye! When she stubbornly insisted on marrying Qin Niu, I thought she was marrying beneath her, but now it seems she has actually married above her station. With Qin Niu’s influence, my Tang Family canpletely soar high and rise several levels. When facing my colleagues, I’ll have that much more confidence in my heart.”


    Qin Niu, on the other hand, was rather indifferent to power and influence.


    In his eyes, as long as he could prolong his life by a few years, even if he were offered the position of the ck Tiger Gang Leader, he would not give it a second thought.


    Walking on the streets in the early morning, he could feel the probing gazes hidden in the shadows.


    He pretended not to notice them.


    Today’s Third Office Judgment made him aware of the gap between him and Spirit Qi Realm powerhouses.


    The short-distance teleportation technique of Elder Wen was truly masterful.


    Their fighting power was likely to be extremely terrifying.


    Though the ck Tiger Gang seemed to have been established not long ago, they had amassed a considerable amount of talent.


    It was baffling what the Nine Insect Gang was thinking. Did they really fantasize about swallowing up such a powerful gang?


    The best oue would be chipping their own teeth.


    It could very well end up with the Nine Insect Gang being counter-killed by the ck Tiger Gang.


    In the previous battle by the river, the Shennong Sect must have suffered great losses.


    What changes will happen next, he didn’t know for the time being.


    War is full of uncertainties.


    The battlefield situation also changes in a sh, and the current circumstances of the ck Tiger Gang were still cause for concern.


    Qin Niu decided to go to the Cultivation Market to buy some more talismans.


    As for elixirs, he was reluctant to spend that silver money.


    Ordinary elixirs had little effect on him, and the prices of advanced elixirs were exorbitantly high.


    Despite having over a hundred thousand silver money now, if he were to spend it on advanced elixirs, he would quickly be penniless.


    It was most cost-effective to grow his own medicinal herbs and then pay Master Zi Zhou to refine them.


    Before long, Qin Niu arrived at the Cultivation Market.


    There were several talisman shops, but he was especially fond of Bei Bing’s talismans.


    Entering the small shop, Bei Bing’s grandfather was nowhere to be seen, while Bei Bing herself was focused on drawing talismans with a talisman pen.


    She was still in simple hemp clothes, her long hair scattered behind her, barefoot, giving her an exceedingly fresh and natural appearance.


    Every time he saw her, it was as if he wasn’t looking at a person, but at a piece of natural scenery.


    Her unique schrly aura, mixed with the transcendental qualities of a cultivator who is detached from worldly desires, did not show beauty, but the celestial aura that a true fairy should possess.


    “Hey! Bei Bing, drawing talismans again?”


    Qin Niu greeted her with a smile.


    Only in the presence of real friends did Qin Niu show his naturally unrestrained side.


    “Yiya yiya!”


    When she raised her eyes and saw Qin Niu, her face and eyes were full of surprise.


    Unlike Tang Caixian and Wang Wanyan, who looked at him with affectionate eyes, Bei Bing looked at Qin Niu with clear eyes that held no worldly desires of men and women.


    It was purely the joy of seeing a true friend.


    “I’vee to you again to buy talismans. Thest Invisibility Talisman you gave me saved my life, helping me sessfully get through a life-and-death ordeal. Thank you for giving me such a precious talisman.”


    Qin Niu walked directly toward the inner room.


    On the desk, there were some leaves of various sizes, emitting a faint medicinal scent.


    At the same time, Qin Niu also felt a very special energy within the leaves.


    Since his Medicine King Sutra had only been cultivated to the Acquired Realm, his ability to discern the internal energies of nts was not extremely meticulous.


    At most, he could differentiate between cool, yin-cold, and fiery-hot energies.


    The leaves that could be used for crafting talismans were naturally not ordinary nt leaves.


    The brush used for drawing talismans was also particr.


    Usually, it was made from the fur of demon beasts.


    Such items were rarely sold in ck Tiger City; only in somerger cities could one possibly buy them.


    It’s said that in the cultivation markets directly controlled by the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, almost any item can be purchased. However, the currency used there is not ordinary things like gold, silver, or jewels.


    It’s either barter or currency that Immortal Masters could use.


    “Has your grandfather gone out again to look for materials for crafting talismans?”


    Qin Niu casually chatted with the mute girl.


    She nodded her head.


    “Is it difficult to find materials for crafting talismans? You could spend money to buy them at the market!”


    She picked up an ordinary charcoal pencil and quickly wrote on a te.


    “Materials for making Advanced Contract Talismans are extremely hard to find; they simply can’t be bought at the market.”


    “Isn’t it just some leaves and stuff like that?”


    “We need leaves infused with Spirit Qi, and different types of talismans require leaves with different properties. To craft more advanced talismans, the skin of demon beasts is needed.”


    After reading what she wrote, Qin Niu realized that he had been naive.


    “This time, I’m looking to buy a few Advanced Contract Talismans from you. If you have special talismans like the Invisibility Talisman, I would also like to buy a couple for self-protection.”


    Having experienced the power of the Invisibility Talisman, Qin Niu was very eager to get a few more for himself.


    Even if they cost a thousand Silver Money each, he thought they were very worthwhile.


    If it weren’t for that Invisibility Talismanst time, he might have already been killed by Elder Jiu Yin.


    An expert of the Spirit Qi Realm was truly terrifying.


    “My grandfather went out this time to look for ingredients to make the Invisibility Talismans. It’s just that he has been gone for more than half a month and hasn’te back yet, I’m a bit worried.”


    Bei Bing usually had no friends and rarely interacted with others.


    She wouldn’t easily share her family matters with anyone.


    Now that she met Qin Niu, she found an opportunity to confide.


    “Don’t worry, I believe your grandfather will be fine. Lately, the ck Tiger Gang has been at war with two other factions, so maybe he’s just been dyed on the road.”


    Qin Niuforted her.


    The old man has rich social experience and is not likely to run into any trouble.


    “Could it be because you gave me the Invisibility Talismanst time, that your grandfather saw you didn’t have any protective talismans left, so he was eager to find materials to make a few more Invisibility Talismans?”


    Qin Niu asked.


    Doing the math regarding time, it had been about twenty days or so since Bei Bing gave him the Invisibility Talisman.


    Her grandfather must have set out just a couple of days after that.


    “Yes!”


    She nodded again.


    The old man’s affection for his granddaughter was silent but profound, expressed in this unique way, showing his love for her.
