Chapter 2338: Reaping the Consequences of One's Words, Part One

The words immediately left the crowd speechless.

A Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone?

Was he being serious?

There were less than a hundred Heaven Dao Seven Moon Stones that were fished out of the river in the Majestic Moon Heaven Ascending City every year. Each of them had insane value too.

It was more than enough to redeem several dozens of servants in the Heaven Immortal Realm, let alone a servant girl who was less than the age of ten.

The woman wearing a veil harrumphed coldly and said, "A Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone? Why don't you call yourself a robber?"

Young Master Li shrugged and said, "I've named my price. You should leave if you can't afford it!"

The woman clenched her teeth. Normally, she would have taught the man a lesson. However, she had sneaked out from her home this time. She could not afford to attract too much attention as her family would find her in no time.

She would lose her freedom again.

"Fine, I'll pay it..." she suddenly paused in the middle of the sentence.

She just remembered she did not bring any Heaven Dao Moon Stones with her.

"c.r.a.p, I was in such a rush that I didn't bring any of them," the woman thought.

"What is it? Are you going to pay or not? My time is precious. I'm not going to waste it on you," Young Master Li said.

"I don't have it on me now. I'll pay you later," the woman said.

"Later?"

Young Master Li's eyes flickered coldly, "Are you making fun of me? I'm not going to waste my time talking to you. If you dare intervene with my business again, I will make you pay too!" a strong aura burst out of the man's body.

"You're going to make me pay?"

The woman's eyes flickered coldly too. She was going to make her move when a figure suddenly landed between them after a flash.

PA!

A soft slap was heard.

Young Master Li's hand was knocked away.

"And who are you?" Young Master Li was enraged.

What was going on today?

Why did people keep stopping him when he was trying to take back his servant?

Since when were there so many kind-hearted people in this world?

"You are..."

The woman looked at Qin Nan with a puzzled face.

She did not expect someone else to step forward too.

"It doesn't matter who I am. I can trade you a Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone for her life," Qin Nan said.

"You're giving it to me?" Young Master Li said. He soon burst out laughing, "HAHA, very well, give it to me now."

He would profit greatly for trading his servant with a Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone."

"Thank you for your help," the woman transmitted her voice to Qin Nan.

"Senior, Xiao Li and I are in your debt," the old man brought his fists together gratefully.

"Don't mind it, it's nothing."

Qin Nan smiled and said to Young Master Li, "I don't have a Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone with me yet. Wait here for a while. I'm going to fish it out now."

Young Master Li nodded and said, "If you really have it, I don't mind waiting...what did you say? You're going to fish one now?" the man raised his tone after he collected his thoughts.

"Fish one...now?"

The woman and the old man were stunned too.

The whole place fell silent.

"Where did this crazy man come from?"

"Why is he so naive when he's already in the peak Master Realm? Did he think he can fish a Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone so easily?" the crowd said.

They were impressed by Qin Nan's courage to step forward, but he had embarra.s.sed himself by uttering such nonsense.

Even a Heaven Highness could not guarantee they could fish out a Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone since it was purely based on luck!

"HAHAHA!"

Young Master Li burst out laughing, "This is so amusing. Two people tried to save the girl, but one doesn't have the Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone, while the other is going to fish it out now!"

"Do you think...it's funny to treat me like a fool?" the man withdrew his smile.

A shocking murderous intent burst out of his body.

The two men and a woman behind him shared the same reaction too.

"Cultivator, you shouldn't make the matter worse if you aren't going to help!" the woman with a veil transmitted her voice to Qin Nan coldly.

Qin Nan realized what he said must sound quite bizarre to the crowd.

However, he was not going to take back the words he had said.

"Cultivator Li, why are you so angry?"

Qin Nan said calmly, "I won't go back on my own words. If you don't believe me, why don't we make a bet? If I can't fish it out today, I will kneel in front of you and apologize, but if I fish it out, not only will you tear her contract into pieces, you will apologize to them on your knees too. What do you think?"

The cultivators thought they had heard it wrong.

Was the guy really out of his mind?

The woman with a veil was stunned too.

Was he being serious or was he just trying to get some attention?

"Mm? You want to bet with me? Fine, I will gladly accept it, but you must swear an oath before we do it!" Young Master Li said with disdain in his eyes.

"Sure."

Qin Nan did not overthink it. He swore an oath and went closer.

"Are they really having a bet?"

"Tsk tsk, I believe it's that guy's first time coming to the Majestic Moon Heaven Ascending City. He thinks he has some way to acquire the Heaven Dao Seven Moons Stone!"

"Hmm, that sounds reasonable!"

"Besides, he must have come from a lower-ranked Small Immortal Realm. He has no idea what he has gotten himself into!" the crowd discussed.

The woman with a veil also collected her thoughts and said, "I've misunderstood you. I admire your courage and kindness, but..."

"You are being overly confident. It might sound harsh, but it's a stupid move."

"However, you might learn from it. Don't you worry, I'll find another way to save the girl."

Qin Nan was amused. He did not bother explaining himself. He went closer to Huzun River and looked at its surface.
