An Chen was stunned.
Why did the Grand Elder just take advantage of him without a word?
The Grand Elder seemed to realize he had said something wrong, quickly covered his mouth, and waved his hand.
"How... how did you find me? Just because I bought a roasted chicken?"
The Grand Elder thought he had followed well, always trailing far behind. When An Chen and the two Senior Brothers entered the courtyard, he was also observing from a high vantage point in the distance instead of getting close. When staying at the inn, he booked a room upstairs and only used his Divine Sense to investigate.
An Chen often looked back on the road, but he had changed his clothes, not wearing his usual blue attire, and he always kept his head down. An Chen shouldn't have recognized him.
"Grand Elder, although you followed from a distance, there was an old man in a bright red coat following you with his head down all day. Who wouldn't notice that?"
If you're going to track someone, at least wear less conspicuous clothes, right?
However, even if the Grand Elder wore inconspicuous clothes, An Chen would still have noticed. Every time he looked back, he could remember the appearance of everyone behind him. When the same person with repeated features appeared in the scene behind him after several glances, An Chen could naturally deduce that he was being followed.
"I... I'll pay attention next time!"
The Grand Elder lowered his head in thought.
Damn, Fire Phoenix Sect didn't teach him how to track back then.
He just wore clothes he liked, that's all.
An Chen was also speechless.
Actually, An Chen was happy that the Grand Elder was following him. Why not have such a powerful bodyguard protecting him?
If he really encountered any danger, there would still be someone to protect him.
But the Grand Elder's attire made it seem like he was afraid people wouldn't notice him.
Even the two Senior Brothers eventually discovered the Grand Elder.
This wasn't secret protection anymore; this was a perverted stalker.
After clarifying this matter with the Grand Elder, An Chen once again entered a state of Cultivation. After returning to the mountain, his Cultivation speed also increased significantly.
When Cultivating, time passed quickly. Several hours went by in a flash.
Soon, it was time to return again.
This time, An Chen didn't even stop Cultivating; he just put away the Gathering Spirit Array and waited for the countdown to reach zero.
Because he had his eyes closed, the changes around him didn't seem as significant this time, but An Chen still lost the ability to perceive his body, and the changes in the Spiritual Qi around him also indicated the change in his environment.
When he opened his eyes again, An Chen was already sitting back in the living room. Before he could sit up, Su Xiaojiu beside him suddenly called out.
"An Chen, An Chen!"
"Hmm?"
An Chen looked at Su Xiaojiu in confusion, slowly sitting upright.
"What's wrong?"
"Those electric wheelchairs... can you get more of them?"
"I can, you know the online shopping process, but what about your own? Wasn't it just delivered to you before Transmigration?"
Su Xiaojiu suddenly stammered.
"Speak, what exactly happened?"
An Chen's face darkened.
"I showed that thing to my dad, and he was quite interested. He said that although the power was average, it felt pretty cool to ride, and the design was very cool, so he took mine... He also asked if I could get more, as several of his friends wanted them."
Su Xiaojiu mumbled, lowering her head.
...
An Chen covered his forehead and, after a long silence, said:
"How many... do you want?"
"As many as you can get. Anyway, it'll have to be... dozens of them, right?"
"Those things run out of power after a lot of use. Can you solve the charging problem?"
"My dad said that the energy used by those things wasn't strong enough. At first, he found Cultivator who Cultivated lightning-attribute Cultivation Techniques to help charge them, but it broke the electric wheelchairs, so he modified them and changed them to Spirit Power-driven."
There were too many things to complain about in that sentence; An Chen didn't know which one to start with.
Using lightning-attribute Cultivator to help charge was truly a wild idea.
Without transformers or anything, it would be strange if the electric wheelchair's motor and other components didn't break.
And what the heck was 'changing them to Spirit Power-driven'!
Then wouldn't this wheelchair become a Spirit Qi-driven vehicle like a flying boat?
"So... can you get them?"
Su Xiaojiu blinked her big eyes, then realized something and immediately said:
"My dad said he can give compensation. If you don't have money, I can cover it for now. I still have a lot of the Qingxin Grass Leaf you like."
"It's not about Qingxin Grass Leaf."
An Chen waved his hand and said:
"What I need now is cash. The cash I have might not be enough to get that many electric wheelchairs immediately. I need to convert the previous Qingxin Grass Leaf into cash first."
An Chen was actually very interested in the "compensation" Su Xiaojiu's father mentioned.
That was the Sect Master of the Fire Phoenix Sect, one of the most powerful people in the entire Nine Provinces. Any small thing that slipped through the cracks of such a powerful figure's fingers would be an immeasurable treasure to him.
If this matter was handled well, he would definitely gain a lot of benefits.
"Then... do you have a way to convert these Spiritual Plants into cash?"
Su Xiaojiu stared at An Chen nervously.
It was because of the electric wheelchair that he avoided a harsh scolding and a beating. If he didn't bring back more electric wheelchairs, then that harsh scolding and beating would probably still be due, right?
"Coincidentally." An Chen smiled: "I do know some channels."
Perhaps some people are already interested in the various treasures of the Nine Provinces, but so far, no one has exposed the miraculous effects of the Nine Provinces' various treasures online.
For ordinary Transcendents, it was too difficult to obtain precious Spiritual Plants, Medicinal Pills, and other items.
A large portion of people online who claimed to possess various Spirit Pills, miraculous medicines, and Heaven And Earth Treasures from the Nine Provinces were scammers. Now, many people have even shared their stories of being scammed.
Perhaps some people do need invigorating items like Qingxin Grass Leaf, but precisely finding these target users requires a lot of time and energy.
He didn't have the time and energy to find target customers, but some people did have that time, which is what they do.
Sun He's father, Sun Zhijun, happened to be such a person.
Sun Zhijun dealt with a wide variety of things: tobacco and alcohol, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gemstones... he dabbled in all of these, but he wasn't a big shot in any of these areas; he just bought and sold to earn the price difference.
He even, for a period before, ran some sort of treasure appraisal live stream online, but it didn't become famous.
Although Sun Zhijun was just a small figure, An Chen had heard of his ability: as long as it was a treasure, Sun Zhijun was interested and capable of selling them.
Of course, this was heard from Sun He, so there might be some exaggeration involved.
For him, this was undoubtedly the best candidate.
