The Adventures Of The Young Master Chapter 562

An item. Jin Rou smiled, "I see. In actuality, I don't have any dao coins in my pouch so trading items might be good."
The old vendor looked bewildered. Judging by the appearance of this young man, he was a pretty reach young master of a distinguished family. Only, he appeared like a human. This was the Great Hell, so how was he supposed to be here? Well, it wasn't like he could talk about it anyway.
Jin Rou was pondering what item he should trade with him. He was studying the old vendor's affinity and dao to see what would perfectly fit him and he couldn't able to deny.
Finally, after a few enumerations. Jin Rou smiled again and said, "I'll trade this item with you."
Next, he showed a doll. It was very ancient as time. The doll was wearing a black dress and it looked very ominous. Nevertheless, if one observed carefully they could see the overwhelming power of it.
The old vendor studied it very well and was stunned instantly, "This doll..."
"Yes, you have very good eyes to see it." Jin Rou smiled and said, "It is what you think it is. With this doll, your cultivation will become more stable and if you're extremely lucky, you will improve and get stronger. Remember, with your power level, it is very hard to increase it knowing you have maximized your talents already."
The ancient doll was taken by Jin Rou during his trip to the Emperor’s Tomb of Redboa Ancient Emperor. Even the emperor himself didn't know the actual value of this. Only Jin Rou knew it.
"Well," The old vendor was hesitating, "Although it can bring me great benefits, it can also cause me a great disaster. In fact, even my background can be affected as well. It is a double-edged sword with the sharper tip pointing at me."

"All risks have their corresponding wins and losses." Jin Rou explained, "Just like I said, it is very difficult attaining more power with your power level. Risking using the ancient doll is worthy. You have already live long enough to be called a living fossil, after all."
The oldest vendor was considering Jin Rou's words. He was right. He couldn't become stronger if he's afraid of the risks. Although this ancient doll was scary, he was at least confident of subduing if things gone wrong.
On the other hand, Jin Rou had the ability to make sure that the old vendor could reap great benefits. But he was opposed to this notion since he thought that the wooden sword didn't worth that much for him to expend valuable resources.
"Okay." After so much time considering things, the old vendor sighed and agreed, "I'll trade this wooden sword to your ancient doll."
Jin Rou chuckled, "Yes, that's a good choice."
In the end, the old vendor gave in to the temptation of power over the wooden sword. Well, it wasn't like the former had a choice anyway. Jin Rou would get the sword one way or another if the other party pushed his luck further.
Afterwards, Jin Rou gave the ancient doll to the old vendor and the latter gave the wooden sword.
"Good trade." Jin Rou observed the wooden sword with elegance. He was very satisfied of its hidden features and said, "This will be greatly suited for her."
Zacharite heard the word 'her' and thought something. But he didn't dare to outright say it.
After having the transaction with the old vendor, Jin Rou and Zacharite continued strolling in the market. But this time, Jin Rou didn't buy anything. The demon saw many great treasures during the stroll, but it seemed that Jin Rou wasn't a bit interested in it.

"There are a few treasures here, you should pick one. I will buy it for you." Jin Rou casually said, "I have so many items here to exchange with and it's pretty useless to me, so just pick one."
It's not like Jin Rou was being generous here. It was because he appreciated Zacharite's efforts. It was pretty clear as day that he was trying his best to accommodate Jin Rou's satisfaction. Whether whatever would be the result of this companionship, this fact remained as is.
"I'm satisfied with what I have, Your Majesty." Zacharite declined the offer, "But I thank you for your grace."
Jin Rou nodded in response. If the other party didn't like it, he would naturally not push it.
They spent the whole day strolling the vast Absolute market yet Jin Rou didn't find any worthy thing again like the wooden sword. However, he found things just a bit lesser than the sword. Nevertheless, he didn't bother getting them.
"Absolute is really vast. We have spent the day yet we have yet to cover 1/4 of the whole place." Jin Rou was in amazement, "This branch is already this vast, how about the main branch in the Upper Realm?"
Jin Rou took note of this. After finding Schwal Coffin, he would go to the Absolute main branch and explore it.
"I want to explore the market more, but I can't spend more time like this." Jin Rou sighed. It was a rare opportunity to find legitimate treasures in one place. But he needed to prioritize finding Schwal Coffin first.
"We will immediately set off towards our destination. We cannot have any stop further." Jin Rou said.
"As you wish, Your Majesty." Zacharite bowed his head.
"But before we can take a rest for tonight, I have to go somewhere first." Jin Rou stood up and said, "You stay here and guard this tree. It is very precious to me, so you have to guard with all your life."
Currently, they weren't staying in an in. Rather, Jin Rou pulled up one of his treasured trees in the void and made it their resting place. It was very comfortable there and it had a very sturdy defense.
Zacharite didn't know where Jin Rou would go. But he still nodded and said, "Understood, Your Majesty."
He wasn't in the place to ask, so though curious, he let it up to his imagination.
