Chapter 1307: Why?

Chapter 1307 – Why?

Obviously, the young brown-haired man didn't believe Rean. After all, he had the tablet that could find those Fallen Light Star Fragments. He found it way before even really seeing it. However, before he could say anything, the vendor in front of the stall called their attention, saying, "I'm the one selling it, and I saw you two reach for it at the same time. Let's do it this way. The one who offers more will keep it."

Sure enough, he wouldn't let such an opportunity pass up. He carried this thing, not thinking it would be of much value, but it seemed like he was lucky.

Rean sighed in response before bringing 10 Rank One Divine Stones out. Rean could see that the young brown-haired man had the same cultivation as himself, Late Stage of the Saint Realm. One must remember that Divine Stones, even Rank One Divine Stones, were very hard to get for average cultivators. In his mind, 10 Rank One Divine Stones should be enough to make the young man reconsider. "Now then, let me take it."

However…

"Just ten? Sir, I'll give you 20 Rank One Divine Stones for this fragment," the young brown-haired man counteroffered.

Rean narrowed his eyes when he heard that and took a good look at the guy but shook his head in the end. "Forget it." He wasn't in the mood to compete anymore, so he immediately took out 100 Rank One Divine Stones, much to the seller's shock. Well, for Rean, that amount really meant nothing at all. He had tens of thousands of Rank Two Divine Stones, let alone Rank Ones.

However…

"200 Rank One Divine Stones," the young brown-haired man counteroffered yet again.

Rean and the young man looked at each other after that. It was obvious to both of them that neither side was simple. But then again, why would the other want an item that no one wanted? That puzzled Rean and the young man very much.

Rean then looked back at the fragment. He did have enough wealth to battle for it to no one. However, if he took out more than 200 Rank One Divine Stones, it would start to attract way too much attention. He could tell that a few eyes were already looking in this stall's direction. Besides, that fragment was indeed too small to be worth the trouble. "Alright, I give up. I felt this fragment's presence from afar, so I wasn't lying when I said I saw it first. Then again, it doesn't matter anymore."

Rean then turned around and decided to leave. It was better to not gather attention as some people might have the wrong ideas.

The young brown-haired man was surprised to hear that. He also found the fragment from afar due to his tablet. He looked at Rean walk into the distance before quickly paying the man the 200 Rank One Divine Stones, taking the fragment soon after. However, he didn't go away after that. Instead, he immediately went after Rean.

It's just that it didn't matter how fast he was. It looked like Rean was always the same distance away from himself. If he slowed down, Rean wouldn't disappear either. He would continue to stay at the same distance. 'He knows I'm going after him, but where does he want to bring me?'

Surprisingly, the young man was right. Rean noticed that he was being followed, so he led the young man to an inn he was staying. With that, Rean quickly entered the inn and headed to the restaurant inside it. The young man followed him inside and saw Rean waving at him from a table close to the window. The young man scratched the back of his head before approaching the table, sitting on the opposite side. "Hi, brother. Sorry for following you."

Rean didn't seem to mind. "It's fine. You're probably curious as to why I would need Fallen Light Star Fragments, and so am I."

The young man shook his head, saying, "I was more interested in how you felt the fragment's presence, though. But yeah, I'm also curious as to why you need Fallen Light Star Fragments. By the way, I'm called Hurio Locks."

"You can call me Rean Larks," Rean also introduced himself. "I can't really tell you why I need them, though. As for how I felt them, let's just say I have my methods."

That's the part that Hurio found concerning. "Brother, do you perhaps have one of these tablets?" Hurio then took out the tablet he used to find the Fallen Light Star Fragments. He wasn't afraid of having it stolen as all it could do was find Light Element Materials. Such materials had no appeal to other cultivators, so he was fine.

Rean immediately looked at the inscriptions of the tablet and showed a surprised expression. "These runes…" There were quite a few runes on it that he had never seen before. However, judging by how the runes were arranged in comparison to the other ones, Rean could guess how they worked. "It's a detection item. But the runes that I'm not familiar with are similar to the mainstream elemental runes. Is this the tablet you used to find the Fallen Light Star Fragment?"

Hurio immediately nodded, saying, "It seems like you are well-versed in formations and inscriptions. That's correct. This tablet can locate Light Element Materials. However, they're too rare, so that's why this tablet was made. Could it be that you don't have one of these?"

Rean shook his head, telling Hurio, "To be honest, I don't need something like that to find Light Element Materials," He could simply feel the Light Element coming from the fragments from afar. It was the same as feeling Life Force. However, it was a lot easier when it came to items made out of pure Light Element.

Rean then asked the young man, "How far can this tablet detect Light Element Materials?"

"It depends on how much Light Element is in the material. That fragment, for example, I detected it around 5 kilometers away."

Rean nodded after that. "That's quite the distance.." Eventually, Rean asked the real question. "So, why did you come after me? You wanted to ask something else other than whether I had the same tablet as you, right?"
