The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1627

The Peacock Princess and a dozen of her maids were standing around a wayside stall set by a lean, old man.

On a piece of a dirty rag stretched on the ground, there were dozens of ancient antiques made of bronze, porcelain or jade.

"Rare treasures! Rare treasures excavated from the tomb of the Purple Immortal!"

The old man called out with a lot of effort every few minutes trying to catch the attention of customers.

Austin noticed that the Peacock Princess was holding a broken jade pendant in her hand, and looking at it with interest. It looked like she intended to buy it.

"Can you charge a little lesser, sir?"

The Peacock Princess asked. Her voice was very melodious, like the gurgling sound of a brook, winding through the valleys.

Being the princess of the beast race, she was not as seductive as her peers, but there was an elegance and nobleness in her character, like a fairy living on the moon.

"This is a jade pendant not cabbage, my girl, to bargain over its price.

I risked my life and exhausted myself to dig them out from the Purple Immortal's tomb.

It will cost at least 5000 enlightening crystals, or 10 ruling crystals. Nothing less than that!"

The lean old man shouted, with saliva sputtering out his mouth.

"My lady, please watch out. Don't fall into his trap.

He is merely a dirty old man. It is absolutely impossible for him to step into the Purple Immortal's tomb and get these items."

A slim and graceful maiden of the beast race reminded the princess. She was Cheryl. Her voice was soft and enchanting enough to pull a few heart strings.

"But this jade pendant looks so different from others!"

The Peacock Princess held that broken jade pendant, sizing it up repeatedly, but unable to make a final decision.

Suddenly, there was a coughing sound. "Well sir, where on earth did you get those fake things? Seem to come from some unknown graves!"

A strong young man walked across the crowd and taunted the old man sarcastically.

"Go away! Just go away! What do you know about antiques? Nothing! So don't blather and waste our time!"

The lean old man pulled a long face at the young man.

That strong young man was Austin.

The Peacock Princess and her maids caught a glimpse of Austin. Knowing that he was merely a human being, they didn't care anymore.

Suddenly, Austin felt something strange.

It was the gray egg hidden in his clothes that became active.

It was transmitting a strong desire for something which was on the wayside stall.

As surprised as he was, Austin had a glance at the antiques which were on sale.

Finally, he set his eyes on four black muddy stones

'Can these four stones bear the magical time power?'

Austin stared at the four stones with curiosity.

It was clear to Austin that the gray egg could only hatch with the assistance of the valuable treasure bearing the time power.

The gray egg wanted the stones badly. That meant they must be magical ones.

It was well-known fact that the time power was much rarer than the space power.

The treasures containing the time power were also very exceptional and exquisite.

"Sir, what are those four stones? How much are they for?"

Pretending to be calm, Austin came closer to check the four stones carefully.

"1000 enlightening crystals!"

The old man stretched out a finger.

Austin got shocked to hear the price.
