Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 2)

Chapter 347 - An Invitation to Chat

Life's a Drama felt like he was on cloud nine after hearing Nie Yan refer to him as a friend. He proudly held his head up high and stuck out his chest.

Many of the nearby stall owners had expressions of envy on their faces. Life's a Drama really was a lucky bastard, to have befriended a mysterious expert like Nie Yan. They wondered when they would get to be so lucky.

"Alright, how much do you have?" Nie Yan asked the Spectral Knight.

The Spectral Knight felt a little guilty being stared at by Nie Yan. He finally answered after a long time, "360 gold is all we have. Can you hold onto that chestplate? I'm going to ask my friends for the gold. I'll be back in a minute, I promise. Please wait for me!"

"Fine, bring the 360 gold over, and I'll sell you this chestplate," Nie Yan said after thinking for a moment.

"R-really? You're not joking?" the Spectral Knight asked with an expression of disbelief. He was wondering if he had misheard.

"Gold only," Nie Yan said. He had no interest in taking collateral.

"Yes, yes, of course! Thank you brother! I'll immediately contact my friends to bring the gold over!" The Spectral Knight was giddy with excitement. How could he not be? Nie Yan agreed to sell him a chestplate worth at least 500 gold for just 360 gold!

The onlookers, including Life's a Drama, stared at Nie Yan in awe and surprise. 500 gold and 360 gold, this was a whopping difference of 140 gold!

The Spectral Knight was over the moon with excitement.

"Wait!" An Undead Raider stepped out of the crowd. "Friend, can you sell me that chestplate? I'm willing to offer 500 gold."

Nie Yan glanced at the Undead Raider. His chestplate was a set item, so he clearly had no need for this one. Then why was he willing to offer 500 gold for it? Maybe for a friend?

The Spectral Knight glared at the Undead Raider. Just when he had finally negotiated a price with Nie Yan, someone stuck their nose in and wanted to snatch the chestplate right out of his hands. How could he not feel unresigned? However, any thoughts of fighting back were immediately snuffed out after he saw the Fallen Angel guild insignia on the Undead Raider's chest. It wasn't like he could stop others from competing with him, especially when the other side was willing to pay much more than him! He had no one to blame but himself. Who told him to be so poor?

Nie Yan didn't bat an eyelid. "The chestplate has already been sold. Pick something else."

"No. I want that chestplate," replied the Undead Raider in a heavy voice as he gazed at Nie Yan dead in the eye.

The onlookers started slowly backing away. The players of Fallen Angel normally didn't behave in such a forceful manner. Did this stall owner somehow offend them? Is that why this Undead Raider was purposefully stirring up trouble?

Nie Yan coldly glanced at the Undead Raider. "Did you not hear what I just said? This chestpiece has already been sold. I never go back on my word."

The Spectral Knight was moved. He never expected Nie Yan to be still willing to sell the chestplate to him, even after someone else offered a higher price.

The onlookers couldn't help but admire Nie Yan for sticking to his guns. It wasn't something everyone could do.

Life's a Drama also had a look of respect in his eyes.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

The expression of the Undead Raider suddenly relaxed into a bright smile. "Brother, don't take offense. I was just kidding. Give me a price for the remaining items, I want all of them. I hope we can be friends."
