The fingers of Fairy Xuan Xueqi was slowly tapping on her elder token and she was quietly saying, "So now you know who we are?"
Sage Wu Sangu immediately broken into a cold sweat and he hastily replied, "Yes, yes."
As he replied to Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi, they were also secretly nodding to each other; it was because they had formulated a plan to draw all their followers out.
If they had kept themselves hidden, more and more of these cultivators would be tracking them and they won't have any peace in this city.
The numbers of strong cultivators then would be quite startling.
Also, they wanted to know the extend of the influence that the current Profound Cloud Sect had over the Holy Alliance.
And it was quite startling.
Just the elder token of the number one cultivation sect in the Holy Alliance was enough to freak the other cultivation sects as they did not want to offend the Profound Cloud Sect.
Actually, it was just Fairy Xuan Xueqi who was the real elder and the elder token belonged to her. The cultivators had assumed that Ye Fan was also an elder also as he seemed to be the one in charge.
Ye Fan smiled to Sage Wu Sangu, "We are traveling incognito actually so we don't want any troubles while we are here. Nor do we want the others to know our identities. That is why we did not want to reveal our names to you earlier."
Sage Wu Sangu, An Lushan and the other cultivators were all replying and nodding, "Yes, yes…"
Ye Fan pointed at the piece of paper at the table, "Perhaps since you are a little free, why don't you help us to gather some of the stuff in my list?"
Sage Wu Sangu took the paper and quickly examined it.
He was soon astonished, "This, this… Elder Ye Fan… erm, it isn't impossible to get some of the spirit herbs in this list but it is… actually very expensive. I… can't afford some of it…"
Some like the 3000 year old Black Dragon's Yew and 5000 year old Red Autumn Spirit Root can cost an arm and a leg.
Ye Fan said nonchalantly, "You can mark it up by 50% and I shall pay you for your help…"
Sage Wu Sangu was still gulping dryly; even though the 50% mark up was extremely tempting but he could not even afford to buy the more expensive ones in the first place.
Ye Fan seemed to know this and he smiled to Sage Wu Sangu as he took out a bag that was full of high-grade spirit stones, "There is 10 000 high grade spirit stones in this bag. You can use it freely. If you still need more, let me know."
Sage Wu Sangu and the others were stunned.
Just like this, this Elder Ye Fan had taken out 10 000 high grade spirit stones!
This is equivalent to 10 million spirit stones!
This Elder Ye Fan is too rich!
Actually, Ye Fan was wealthier than they had thought.
It was because he had farmed all kinds of cultivation resources while he was struck inside the Abyssal Chasm of Death and he had also mined plenty of high grade spirit stones as well. Not only that, he even has immortal jades that are worth 1000 high spirit stones each!
Sage Wu Sangu immediately patted his chest and laughed heartily, "Let me get this done immediately for you!"
Marking up every item in this list for 50% is going to make Sage Wu Sangu extremely rich and so he was full of excitement.
An Lushan whispered to Sage Wu Sangu, "Erm, maybe we should let the other one know that their elder is here?"
Sage Wu Sangu had suddenly remembered that there was a golden celestial from the Profound Cloud Sect that was nearby as well.
"Right…"
"No need! I am already here!"
A beautiful maiden with golden eyes had suddenly walked into the room and with her were 4 3rd realm female cultivators.
She gazed piercingly at Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi, "Since an elder from my Profound Cloud Sect is here, naturally as one of the leaders of the branch here in the City of Anthryl, I ought to welcome them myself."
Sage Wu Sangu quickly laughed, "Then we should go first since we are all outsiders. Hahaha…"
And he was ready very quick to leave as he was afraid that Ye Fan may task this maiden to help him instead and then he would have lost a great opportunity to earn such a large amount of wealth.
So he quickly left with his men.
An Lushan was also panicky following him and said, "We can help you to scout for these items too… for a reward of course…"
Sage Wu Sangu was heard saying, "That will be great! The more help that I got, the better! Hahaha…"
The beautiful maiden was suddenly looking quite startled and so were the female cultivators that were with her; it was because they were suddenly staring at the elder token that Fairy Xuan Xueqi was tapping with her fingers.
This token is a core elder token!
She had heard Sage Wu Sangu addressing Ye Fan as an elder of the Profound Cloud Sect but she was not surprised at all.
Nowadays, the Profound Cloud Sect is quite big and have plenty of elders. So it isn't surprising to find 1 or 2 elders from elsewhere popping up now and then in this place.
But core elder token is a totally different matter.
The arrogancy that the beautiful maiden had just displayed vanished immediately as she immediately greeted, "Celestial Mei Xiaoruan pays my respects to both elders here. I am one of the lead elders that is in charge of this place. I didn't know that the two honorable elders are here today and we didn't receive any instructions as well…"
Ye Fan interrupted her, "It is alright. We are just passing by to obtain for some cultivation resources."
Mei Xiaoruan nodded quietly before asking politely, "How do I address both elders?"
Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi took a glance at each other; they were actually quite awkward to report their names; Ye Fan is a fake while Fairy Xuan Xueqi did not want anyone to know that she is still alive.
"Mama. I am hungry. Where is the food?"
Little Xuefeng had interrupted at the right time.
Ye Fan quickly seized Little Xuefeng up and laughed, "They need time to prepare the yummy food for you. Don't be too impatient…"
Then he turned to say to Mei Xiaoruan as he said politely, "We wish to remain incognito for now. I hope that you will be able to understand."
Mei Xiaoruan said quietly, "This I understand but I still need your names for the records. Surely you don't want us to be punished for breaking the sect's rule?"
Ye Fan and Fairy Xuan Xueqi were both startled; this, is a new sect rule that they did not know?
Indeed, more than 1000 years had passed and there should be quite a few new sect rules too.
Ye Fan saw that this Celestial Mei Xiaoruan did not look like a maiden that could be cowered even if they were core elders.
They were now thinking if they should just give her a fake name but it would be discovered very quickly once she started verifying and checking their names.
Celestial Mei Xiaoruan turned to Fairy Xuan Xueqi to say, "This elder here. You don't mind removing your veil, right? I can tell that you are really a very beautiful maiden but I would like to see your face for once."
One of the reasons why the Profound Cloud Sect could also become the number 1 celestial cultivation sect in the Holy Alliance is also because of the strict discipline of their protégés.
