Chapter 299 Shopping Storm

Gongsun Yan was like a businessman, purchasing some goods on a large scale, and bought more than one or two pieces of many valuable goods.

All he used to pay were gold bars. Fortunately, the people here are well-informed. As long as they can identify pure gold, it doesn't matter where it comes from.

Seeing that there were already a lot of things to buy, Gongsun Yan was about to go back.

Occasionally, he caught a glimpse of a jewelry store on the opposite street. Several women were watching around the window. Gongsun Yan secretly thought that there must be some rare jewelry on display in the window, which attracted the ladies to stop and watch.

He walked over casually. Although he had shopped along the way and bought a lot of jewelry, he always wanted to buy Yi Rui a nice piece of jewelry. He was in such a hurry when they got engaged that he didn't even give her an engagement gift.

Although the Yi Rui family didn't care about it, Gongsun Yan always kept this in mind, but after looking at it all the way, there were very few things that made him very satisfied.

When he came to the display window, Gongsun Yan saw that there was a necklace inlaid with many diamonds, and a ruby ​​inlaid in the middle. It seemed to weigh more than one or two pounds. He fell in love with this necklace at a glance, and then

Enter the store.

As soon as Gongsun Yan walked into the store, a purple-haired beauty came forward to greet her. Gongsun Yan told her that he wanted to buy the necklace in the window. After hearing this, the woman looked happy and immediately called the store manager.

The person in charge was a middle-aged man. He introduced the necklace to Gongsun Yan in detail, telling him that the ruby ​​in the middle weighed 312 carats and that the total price required one thousand taels of gold.

After Gongsun Yan paid off the gold, the beautiful clerk put the necklace away in front of Gongsun Yan and began to pack it carefully.

"Jack, this is the necklace, I want it!"

At this time, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind Gongsun Yan. She spoke the language of the Purple Zone and sounded soft and waxy.

Hearing this, Gongsun Yan did not look back. He kept staring at the female clerk's packaging process. Just as the female clerk wrapped the necklace and prepared to put it into an exquisite wooden box, another man came from behind Gongsun Yan.

Doubting voices:

"I want this necklace!"

Seeing that the female clerk had put the necklace into the box, Gongsun Yan took it directly and put it in his arms, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Boy, put down that necklace. Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me say I wanted it?"

The man's voice came from behind again, this time he was obviously speaking to Gongsun Yan.

Gongsun Yan slowly turned his head, and behind him stood two young men and women from the Purple Human Race. The woman was beautiful and beautiful; the man had a jade tree facing the wind, a long sword hanging on his waist, and his cultivation had reached the early stage of the Return to the Void Realm.

Both of them looked at him with disdain.

Seeing this scene, the steward at the counter said politely to the man:

"Mr. Jack, this gentleman has already paid. You are a little late and come back when the goods are available next time!" The steward obviously recognized the man.

Jack was also a little embarrassed. Seeing the woman beside him looking very unhappy, he said to Gongsun Yan:

"Sir, I am willing to pay double the price for this necklace. Can you please resell it to me?"

"Sorry! Not selling!"

Gongsun Yan replied, turned around and left the jewelry store.

After going out and walking not far away, Gongsun Yan saw the man and woman following him, and behind them there were several people dressed as attendants not far away.

Seeing this situation, Gongsun Yan smiled and ignored it. Fighting in the street was not prohibited here and he was not afraid at all.

Several people followed him and came to a street with not many pedestrians. The man named Jack walked up quickly and asked again:

"Let me ask again, do you want to sell it or not?"

"Not for sale!" Gongsun Yan replied without hesitation.

"Okay! I challenge you on the street, pull out your sword!" Jack said.

Gongsun Yan didn't reply. He turned around calmly and put his right hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw the sword at any time.

Jack drew his sword in his hand with a clatter and looked at Gongsun Yan angrily.

Gongsun Yan noticed that the opponent's sword had an extremely thin blade and a complicated guard. As he was thinking about it, Jack suddenly thrust the sword forward at an extremely fast speed!

Gongsun Yan stepped back and waved his sword to block him. Jack's long sword in his hand quickly stepped back, and then he thrust the sword into the empty space under Gongsun Yan's ribs.

Gongsun Yan, on the other hand, pointed the sword in his hand downwards, and Jack retracted it. Before Gongsun Yan could fight back, Jack thrust his sword forward and stabbed his right shoulder into the empty space.

These rounds were completed in a blink of an eye, and those present could only see the swaying afterimages of the two people.

At this time, people were already watching around, and some people started talking:

"Look, Jack is dueling with someone again. I wonder why this time?"

"Is there any other reason why I didn't see Dia standing over there? With this woman here, Jack is like a doll, at her mercy."

"Oh! What a troublemaker this woman is! Sooner or later Jack will fall into her hands."

"..."

Gongsun Yan observed the opponent while making moves to deal with it. After a few moves, he roughly understood the opponent's characteristics.

The sword drawing speed is extremely fast, the movements are simple and effective, and are stable, accurate and ruthless; the footwork is extremely flexible. Every time he uses a fast attack, he tries to cause the opponent to have time gap, limb gap, blind spot gap, movement gap, or both.

.

Gongsun Yan also noticed that Jack's swordsmanship was mainly based on stabs, combined with draws and strikes to form a complete attack system, but his defense was relatively weak.

Unfortunately, Gongsun Yan's sword was shorter than his opponent's, so he could only parry at first.

However, Gongsun Yan is not worried about his situation. He now has several methods to kill his opponent instantly, but he just wants to learn more about the swordsmanship of the Purple People through the opponent.

Seeing that it was almost done, Gongsun Yan suddenly jumped up and attacked the opponent with a move of "Shadow Transformation". When Jack drew his sword to attack the shadow and exposed the space, Gongsun Yan defeated the enemy with one move and stabbed him in the right shoulder.

.

The long sword in Jack's hand fell to the ground with a clang, and he stood there with a pale face, and there was an exclamation of surprise from the surrounding area.

Gongsun Yan did not continue to attack, sheathed his sword and turned around to leave.

When Jack's followers saw Gongsun Yan's victory, they did not swarm him and start a group fight against him. This surprised Gongsun Yan.

In fact, many disputes in the Purple People District are resolved through duels. They "don't care about life and death, and will do it if they don't accept it." Sometimes the cause is just some trivial matters, and they can even duel in the street just because they don't like the other party.

Moreover, during the duel, no one else is allowed to interfere, not even brothers, father and son. Otherwise, the family will be ridiculed.

The outcome of the duel is second to none, and the honor and status of the family cannot be compromised at all. This is completely different from the cultural customs of the Yellow Zone.
