Chapter 1024: Underground Black Market (5 updates)

Ye Haochuan stood there in a daze, his face full of regret, while the man continued forward without stopping.

The man glanced at the money in Ye Haochuan's hand and shook his head. "Sorry, I can't help."

People coming to the black market are always cautious and would never easily take a stranger they just met inside. Besides, the cash Ye Haochuan offered was insignificant to most cultivators.

"Fellow cultivator, don't be so distant. Surely it's only a small effort for you."

"You don't need to say anything more. I won't take you inside." The man remained unmoved.

Ye Haochuan deliberated for a moment, then seemed to make a firm decision. Gritting his teeth, he said, "How about this—if my sword is sold successfully, I'll give you ten percent of the profit. How about that?"
