"I know you're powerful. Let's enter the city first." As she spoke, she pulled Qing Yuan's small hand and walked towards the city gate. However, she did not notice a trace of redness on Qing Yuan's face. She did not know what Qing Yuan was thinking.
"Stop, both of you! Take off your bamboo hat for routine inspection." A few valiant men stood at the entrance of Qing City as they spoke to Xiao Yan.
"Okay, it's not them. Let them go!" The checkpoints set up at the entrance were extremely strict for passers-by, as if they were looking for something.
"Sigh, this is really a ghost. Ever since the Mu family was destroyed, the entire city has been under strict control. I don't know what's going on, but it seems like they're looking for a killer."
"Who knows? Since that murderer dared to destroy the Mu family, he must have someone to rely on. You guys should be careful when you go out. I heard that the murderer is still in the city."
Xiao Yan had just brought Qing Yuan into the city when he heard the whispers of others.
"Qingyuan, do you know why the Mu family was destroyed like this?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
"I'm not sure either. I remember that the head of the Mu family obtained something, so" Qing Yuan was a little sad as he spoke. Although the Mu family did not treat him well, they had taken him in and raised him. It was still a little sad to talk about the Mu family being destroyed.
"An innocent man is guilty, but a guilty man is guilty." Xiao Yan immediately comforted Qing Yuan Dao before pulling Qing Yuan's pharmacy away.
Xiao Yan had just wanted to go to the inn to stay when he realized that he was penniless. He immediately felt it inappropriate to speak to Qing Yuan. Hence, he asked,"Qing Yuan, let's go auction some medicinal pills first. Coincidentally, I need to buy some medicinal ingredients."
Qing Yuan could not help but lead Xiao Yan towards the auction with some envy when he heard this.
The words "Treasure Source" were placed on a tall plaque, looking very imposing! Treasure Source was the largest auction house for medicinal pills and herbs in Qing City. It was also the first choice for alchemists to auction medicinal pills and buy high-grade medicinal pills!
Xiao Yan brought Qing Yuan with him. In order to prevent them from being recognized, the two of them put on cloaks that covered their entire bodies and walked in. Xiao Yan had just walked in when he smelled waves of refreshing fragrance. This smell was extremely familiar to Xiao Yan. This was surprisingly the pill fragrance emitted by a high tier medicinal pill.
"What can I get you?" A shrewd looking man walked over and asked Xiao Yan with a smile. Although many people came to auction items and wanted medicinal pills with their true faces, it was inevitable that some people like Xiao Yan would appear. The man did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly came forward to inquire.
"Hello, I need to auction off medicinal pills. I also need to purchase some rare medicinal herbs. I just wonder if you guys have any here." Xiao Yan deliberately lowered his voice and said.
"What grade of medicinal pill is Mister auctioning? As for medicinal herbs, don't worry, sir. I have everything I need." How could a man with his shrewdness not see what Xiao Yan was thinking? Hence, he hurriedly comforted Xiao Yan.
"May I know what grade of medicinal pills Sir wants to auction?" The man carefully sized Xiao Yan up and asked.
"Level 9 Golden Core."
"Oh, my God!"
"What's wrong? Is my auction too low?"
"Sir! Please wait a moment while I call our CEO." The man was clearly shocked. It should be known that although the Dou Di continent was much richer in Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy than the Dou Qi continent and one's strength could be increased through bloodline power and medicinal pills, alchemists had to advance step by step. There were no shortcuts. Hence, alchemists were even rarer than on the Dou Qi continent!
It was no wonder that this man who received Xiao Yan and the others was so shocked. This was because he usually received at most people around the sixth rank. A ninth rank was really a big surprise.
"Hello, sir. I am Zhang He, the CEO of Treasure Gathering Source and also a Di Grade Alchemist. Is sir going to auction a Tier 9 Golden Core?" A lean middle-aged man named Qing He walked out.
"These are the ninth-grade Golden Pills and some healing pills that I want to auction. In addition, these are the herbs I need this time. I hope the CEO can help me take a look." Xiao Yan was polite to Zhang He.
Zhang He received a dozen bottles of tier nine Golden Dan and a piece of paper with many medicinal ingredients written on it. His heart shook slightly. Dou Di? Qing He had some plans in his heart. "Sir, please wait a moment at this moment. I'll be right back." Qing He cupped his hands to Xiao Yan as he spoke and wanted to leave.
" Executive Zhang, wait a minute. To be honest, I came out in a hurry and didn't have time to bring money. Therefore, I wanted to sell the pills as soon as possible in exchange for the herbs I need." Xiao Yan faced the Green River path.
Zhang He heard," Sir, are you really going to do this? Originally, I was planning to advertise to you that the price would rise sharply. Since that's the case, I'll arrange the fastest auction. At the same time, I'll go to the warehouse to get the medicine for you. I'll be right back." He said as he walked out in a hurry.
Xiao Yan watched Zhang He walk out. A girl with a delicate face and a hot figure walked in. She was careful and somewhat afraid as she carried a cup of tea in. Clearly, she had been specially instructed to serve Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan did not seem anxious because Xiao Yan knew that these things would take some time. He immediately sat down and drank the tea handed over by the girls. Qing Yuan, who was beside him, followed Xiao Yan in a dignified manner. The young lady looked at Xiao Yan in front of her who seemed to be behaving properly and did not have any inappropriate thoughts towards her. She immediately sighed. Previously, she had received orders to serve this important person. Therefore, she had to try her best to satisfy any special requests. Otherwise, fortunately, this important person in front of her was not such a person.
Xiao Yan carefully sized up the room of the Treasure Source and discovered that the structure of this place was simple, but it contained a vague invisible pressure. He did not know what it was. "That should be an array formation. I didn't expect there to be an array formation protecting this place." the Golden Dragon King suddenly said. Ever since Xiao Yan had accepted bringing Qing Yuan away, the Golden Dragon King had disappeared as if he had mentioned some medicinal ingredients until today. Xiao Yan thought that something had happened to the Golden Dragon King.
"Grandmaster, what's wrong with Qingyuan? Why do you want me to bring her along like this?" Xiao Yan replied in his heart. "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Have you obtained the medicinal herbs? When the time comes, you'll know. You don't know what kind of luck you've got. Now you're still complaining here. In a few days, you'll thank me." The Golden Dragon King was clearly playing a charade with Xiao Yan.
"Sir, if the pills you left behind are auctioned for a total of five million yuan, then after deducting the medicinal herbs on Sir's note for one million and five hundred thousand yuan and the 10% handling fee, the remaining three million yuan are already on this card. Sir, take these things well." Zhang He did not dare to neglect Xiao Yan in front of him. He took out ten bottles of expensive tier nine Golden Cores from Xiao Yan. Moreover, the quality of these Golden Cores was not something that an ordinary alchemist could refine. At the very least, this person in front of him was someone on the same level as him! He then handed over a tiger-patterned crystal card and an intermediate spatial ring.
Tiger pattern crystal cards could only be used by experts above the Dou Di level. Could it be that the black-clothed man in front of him was actually a Dou Di? Moreover, he was a Dou Di who could refine a ninth-grade Golden Pill at the very least! This dual identity could not help but make people awed!
"Since there's nothing else, thank you, Grand Deacon. Farewell." Xiao Yan said as he conveniently took the things in Zhang He's hand and prepared to leave the Treasure Source.
"Sir, please wait. Pardon me for being presumptuous. Recently, the Mu family's matters have spread all over the city. The city is under martial law. Sir, you should be careful. I heard that the murderer specifically killed alchemists." Zhang He also said to Xiao Yan. Even if he could not rope in such a high level alchemist, it was still a great thing if he could develop a good impression of the Treasure Gathering Source.
"Thank you for the reminder, Grand Deacon. Farewell." Xiao Yan cupped his hands to Zhang He and said.
"Master, what is this person's identity? He can actually spend so much money to take out so many ninth-grade Jindan pills. Also, why does he want to buy so many high-grade medicinal herbs?" The man asked Zhang He respectfully.
"I don't know what identity he has, but his alchemist identity is real. He might be at the same level as me or even higher! That's because the soul fluctuations he's faintly emitting are very strong. In addition, I'm not sure what the medicinal herbs he's looking for are for. However, it's better for you to not inquire about people of this level. Just do your job well." Zhang He said slowly.
