Chapter 350 A Gathering Place for Shady Dealings

Billy agreed to visit the antique market, not solely to find swords for Harleen and her sister. After all, good weapons were rare and hard to come by, with a very low chance of finding them. He simply wanted to expose Harleen and Felicia to the culture of ancient martial arts. Since they had chosen this path, it wouldn't hurt to let them get more acquainted with these.

The next morning, Billy and his group set off towards Linkville. Along the way, Harleen and Felicia were extremely excited, filled with curiosity. Linkville was a city located in the northeast of Ozin, about three hundred kilometers away, nestled in the mountains.

Around 10 AM, Stout parked the car at the entrance of a large estate on the outskirts of Linkville, where the antique market was held. As they got out of the car, they saw a bustling crowd at the entrance, and many people were dressed in traditional robes, with various weapons hanging from their waists.

When Billy and his group inquired, they found out that today was a special martial arts event. Due to the overwhelming number of people who had come to witness the event, the ticket prices were high, and there was a strict requirement: only martial artists above the rank of Warrior were allowed to enter.

Many non-martial artists were disappointed and remained outside, while some Warrior martial artists sighed in frustration.

"Excuse me, ladies, I'm sorry, but today we can only allow martial artists above the rank of Warrior inside," a man in traditional robes said as Billy's group approached, assuming that Harleen and Felicia were not martial artists, especially when he saw that Felicia was dressed like a student.

"How do you know we're not above the rank of Warrior?" Felicia was displeased. She was appearing as a martial artist for the first time and was already being looked down upon.

"This beautiful lady,, if I can't even discern such a thing, how could I be guarding this place?" the man replied with a faint smile. "Don't make it difficult for me. I..." He stopped halfway through his sentence and his expression suddenly changed. He stared at the two ladies in amazement since he had actually sensed the aura of two Battle Masters in their late stages from them.

Harleen and Felicia had intentionally concealed their abilities. If they released their full aura, they might have frightened him.

"I'm sorry, please forgive my ignorance. Please come in!" the man made a respectful gesture.

"Thank you!" Harleen smiled.

Billy's group, including Harleen and Felicia, only released their Battle Master-level aura, and they all passed the gatekeeper's inspection.

"Wow, it's so lively in here!"

Billy's group entered the estate and saw a vast area, covering at least two hundred thousand square meters, with a four-story tower at the center. On either side of the tower were two outdoor trading areas with steel frame structures, containing hundreds of stalls of various sizes, displaying a wide variety of items.

"Billy, what kind of things are sold in here?" Harleen looked around in awe and asked.

"There are many different types of items here. In addition to herbs, weapons, and martial arts techniques, there are also some rare and unusual things."

"Really? Then I need to explore and see if I can buy something for my parents and Tasha." Harleen said cheerfully.

"Haha, that's fine!" Billy laughed.

"Harleen, look at that hairpin, it's so beautiful, just like the ones in historical dramas." Felicia said, pointing to a stall with small accessories.

"Wow, that bracelet is also very pretty, and that rouge box looks so unique. Should we buy one of each as decorations to take back home?"

"Felicia, you're a student. Where will you get the money to buy so many things?" Harleen said with some irritation. "Today, I'll give you a budget of 150 dollars. If you exceed that, I'll deduct it from your allowance."

"What? You're being too stingy!" Felicia pouted and then turned to Billy, "Billy, my good brother-in-law..."

"Don't do that, I own his money." Said Harleen.

"Well, then." Felicia pouted again.

"Haha, Harleen, since it's a rare opportunity, if Felicia like something, let her buy it. You never know if you'll get another chance in the future." Billy said with a smile. "Yea, Billy is right!" Felicia happily exclaimed.

"Don't spoil her!" Harleen gave Billy a playful roll of her eyes and then ignored the two of them.

The items in this trading center were not cheap. Many were considered antiques, and Felicia soon spent hundreds of dollars buying several pieces of jewelry.

As they continued to explore, the two sisters were captivated by the variety of things they had never seen before. Even if they didn't plan to buy, they enjoyed chatting with the stall owners.

"Boss, it seems like this market is not simple." Stout whispered to Billy as they walked. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"A lot of people here have strong martial arts skills, and some of them have a strong bloodthirsty aura." He added.

"Yea." Billy nodded. As soon as he entered, he had already probed the area. This market was definitely a gathering place for all kinds of shady dealings.

"Sir, how much is this string of Buddhist prayer beads?" A while later, they arrived at a stall, and Harleen pointed to a string of shiny prayer beads.

"Ms Knight, why do you want to buy Buddhist prayer beads?" Judge asked curiously.

"My dad is always messing around with stuff like this. These prayer beads look pretty good, so I want to buy a string for him."

"Wow, young lady, you have excellent taste. This is authentic Bodhi wood passed down in my family. It's a treasure." The stall owner said after observing them for a while. "I can sell it to you at the lowest price of 100, 000."

"What?!" Felicia exclaimed.

"You could rob a bank with that kind of price. It's just a string of beads, and you're asking for 100, 000?"

"Young lady, this is an antique treasure, it can't be compared to ordinary prayer beads." The stall owner said with a smile.

"Do you take us for fools?" Felicia retorted. "It's obviously fake. I'd have to think twice even if it were only 10 dollars." After saying that, she pulled Harleen away. "Harleen, he's trying to rip us off. Let's go check out other stalls."

"Sure," Harleen nodded.

"Two beautiful ladies, if you don't want to buy my items, that's fine, but please speak respectfully. Don't tarnish my reputation." The stall owner said with a darkening expression.

"You're the one who's trying to extort us with your ridiculous prices." Felicia replied. "You clearly don't respect your customers."

"Two beautiful ladies, you came to my stall to haggle, and now you're just leaving like this? What do you take me for?" The stall owner exchanged a glance with a man standing nearby. The man nodded and walked out from behind the stall, blocking their path.
