Gongsun Yu raised the price to one thousand purple profound coins in one breath, and then squinted at Yun Che. If it was at the auction of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, he would never dare to be arrogant, but at this underground trade fair, with the reputation of his Holy Sword Sect, he definitely had the qualifications to be arrogant and contemptuous. He didn't expect that a person who was only at the Earth Profound Realm would dare to challenge him in bidding despite his verbal warning.
The reputation of the Holy Sword Alliance, coupled with its strong financial resources and the suddenly increased offer, he thought Yun Che would be frightened directly, but unexpectedly, the other party's expression did not change at all, and he said in an extremely calm manner: "One thousand and one hundred purple coins!"
More than a thousand purple coins came out of his mouth casually. If he didn't have an extremely strong family background, it would be impossible to do it. As the son of the leader of the Holy Sword Sect, Gongsun Yu received about 20,000 purple coins a year, which was what he needed for a whole year of cultivation. Taking out a thousand to buy two purple crystals was basically his limit, and it also greatly exceeded the value of the purple crystals. But he was full of arrogance before, and now someone came out and rudely opposed his offer. If he was suppressed like this, wouldn't it be extremely embarrassing.
Gongsun Yu gritted his teeth secretly, but his expression was relaxed: "One thousand two hundred purple coins."
“One thousand and five!” Without any pause or hesitation, Yun Che shouted following Gongsun Yu’s voice.
Everyone in the hall had a slightly changed expression, and Xiao Qi's face was as beautiful as a crabapple blossom. She had not paid too much attention to Yun Che before, but now she looked at Yun Che with a loving gaze, and her phoenix eyes were so charming that they almost dripped with water.
Gongsun Yu's face finally turned ugly. Fifteen thousand purple coins were basically his monthly expenses. Using this money to buy two purple crystal chalcedony was far beyond his psychological bottom line. The most essential part of a purple crystal mine was the purple vein heavenly crystal, followed by the purple crystal chalcedony. Fifteen thousand purple coins were enough to buy one or two purple vein heavenly crystals. Buying this purple crystal chalcedony was simply throwing money away.
He turned around and said with a fake smile: "My friend, seeing that you are so generous, I think your family must be very prominent. In Shenhuang City, I know most of the people with extraordinary family backgrounds, although I don't say they are all. But you are a stranger to me. Could it be that you are from another place? Oh... Looking at your attire, are you a friend of the Six Nations?"
Yun Che certainly knew what Gongsun Yu was up to. He sneered secretly, but he didn’t shy away from saying, “You guessed right. I’m not from Shenhuang Country, but from the Cangfeng Country in the east. But where I’m from should have nothing to do with this trade fair, right?”
People from Cangfeng?
Everyone in the hall was still speculating about Yun Che's background. They thought that he must have an extraordinary family background since he was so generous and did not hesitate to challenge Gongsun Yu. Now, when they heard that he was from Cangfeng Country, they all showed extreme contempt, even ridiculous eyes. They, the people of Shenhuang Country, have an almost instinctive contempt for the other six countries, and among the six countries, Cangfeng is the weakest. In their eyes, the people of Cangfeng Country have always been inferior people.
“Oh…oh! Hahahaha, it turns out you are a friend of Cangfeng Nation.” Gongsun Yu burst into laughter, and the unpleasant feeling of being suppressed by Yun Che was instantly swept away: “No wonder you are so concerned about this purple crystal jade marrow. I guess you have never seen such a top-grade treasure in your Cangfeng Nation, right? In this case, of course this young master is willing to give it to you…but this young master is a little curious, what do you want this purple crystal jade marrow for? Could it be that you want to increase the spirituality of your weapon like I do? Oh, no, in your Cangfeng Nation, a sky-profound weapon should be a top-level treasure, right? This purple crystal jade marrow is useless. Besides, your profound strength is only at the earth-profound realm, hehe, it seems that it is difficult for you to control a sky-profound weapon…As for using it as the energy source of the Xuanzhou…Hmm? Is there anyone in Cangfeng Nation who can drive a Xuanzhou?”
Suddenly, there were bursts of unrestrained laughter in the hall. In front of the people of Cangfeng, even those with the lowest strength and status felt like they were superior to others. Was there any need to hide the ridicule on an inferior person?
After reporting that he was from Cangfeng, Yun Che knew that such a scene would occur. He did not change his expression, and was too lazy to waste a word with these people. He took out 1,500 purple profound coins, and then took the jade box containing two pieces of purple crystal chalcedony from Xiao Qi's hand. Purple crystal chalcedony is the essence that can only be bred in a large enough purple profound crystal mine. It has a certain spirituality of heaven and earth, so it should be able to increase the spirituality of weapons. I just don't know how much it will increase. If the effect is obvious, he will try to get a few more.
The second item of the transaction was the purpose of Yun Che's visit!
Xiao Qi took another jade box from the old man behind him and said with a smile: "The second treasure is a medicinal herb. Although it is not as luxurious as amethyst chalcedony, it is rarer than amethyst chalcedony."
As he spoke, Xiao Qi had already opened the jade box, and a plant that was flashing red light and shaped like a flame appeared in people's sight. Then, the jade box was immediately closed to prevent the loss of its medicinal power.
"Oh, it's the Phoenix Sunflower!" someone said in surprise.
Hearing the words “Phoenix Sunflower”, Yun Che’s gaze immediately fell on the jade box… It looked like he could leave early.
"Yes, it is the Phoenix Sunflower, and it is a Phoenix Sunflower that has just grown to maturity and has no damage." Xiao Qi said with a smile: "As you all know, Phoenix Sunflower can not only be used as medicine, for strengthening the classics, and for understanding the profound, but it is also of great help in practicing the fire-related profound skills, especially for breaking through bottlenecks. However, once Phoenix Sunflower appears, it will be taken away by the Phoenix Divine Sect as soon as possible. And the one in my hand is the only Phoenix Sunflower in the entire Shenhuang Empire, except for the Phoenix Divine Sect. Even the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce cannot buy it... So if you need it, don't miss it, otherwise, you will have to wait until this time next year to buy it."
Xiao Qi's words sounded a bit exaggerated, but Yun Che knew it was true, because he had been to the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce yesterday, and indeed there was no Phoenix Sunflower there. As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, he asked directly: "How much is the lowest price?"
Xiao Qi's watery eyes turned slightly in the direction of Yun Che, and said softly: "It seems that this young master from Cangfeng Country is also very interested in this Phoenix Sunflower. This Phoenix Sunflower is priced at one thousand Purple Profound Coins."
Although Phoenix Sunflower is rare, it is definitely not a top-level elixir. Moreover, it is extremely difficult to use as medicine and has a high loss rate. For people who do not practice fire-related profound skills, it is not very useful. Therefore, the price of one thousand purple profound coins is really too high. It is obvious that the gimmick of "the last Phoenix Sunflower" is too high. The people in the hall basically showed no interest. But as soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, Yun Che immediately said: "Two thousand purple profound coins, I want it!"
With tens of millions of purple profound coins in his pocket, Yun Che was extremely confident. He just wanted to get this Phoenix Sunflower as soon as possible and didn’t want to waste any more time… The ranking battle would start in half a month, and every minute and every second of time was extremely precious to him.
"Oh my god!" Many people cried out on the spot.
I spent 1,500 purple coins to buy two purple crystal jades... and now I'm actually buying a Phoenix sunflower with 2,000 purple coins...
Does this kid from Cangfeng Country have a lot of money or is he just crazy?!
After bidding one thousand purple profound coins, Xiao Qi was still worried, because she knew very well that the price was indeed a bit high, but she didn't expect that the price would double as soon as she finished speaking. She was instantly overjoyed, and her face became radiant: "This young man from Cangfeng Country is really generous and generous. He directly bid two thousand purple profound coins. I like such young men the most... Is there any other young man willing to pay a higher price? This is the last Phoenix Sunflower this year. If you miss it, no matter how much money you have, you will not be able to buy it..."
Everyone else was silent... What a joke. Unless someone had reached a bottleneck in their fire-related profound arts practice, or urgently needed to refine important elixirs, who would spend more than two thousand purple profound coins to buy a Phoenix Sunflower? Seeing that no one responded, Xiao Qi walked towards Yun Che with a smile: "Congratulations, young master. This Phoenix Sunflower is yours. You must be careful to hold it well."
Yun Che handed over the two thousand purple profound coins neatly, and then took the jade box containing the Phoenix Sunflower… With the Phoenix Sunflower in hand, today’s goal had been achieved. Next, he only needed to find a place to use the Sky Poison Pearl to refine the Qiankun Pill, and then spend about two to three days to refine it. The profound strength should be enough to increase to the peak of the Earth Profound Realm, and when facing the Phoenix Divine Sect, he would have a greater grasp.
As for what was being sold later, he had no interest in it. Yun Che was just about to get up and leave when suddenly, a loud laugh came from outside: "Hahahaha! Miss Xiaoqi, I'm really sorry. I met a few ignorant people on the road and taught them a lesson, so I'm late. Miss Xiaoqi, please don't blame me."
The voice was thick and heavy, and filled with obvious arrogance. As the voice sounded, a tall and sturdy man wearing light armor strode in. This man looked to be about thirty years old. Although his figure was not as good as Xia Yuanba's, he was also very sturdy, especially his exposed muscles. Each muscle was bulging high and flashing with a metallic luster, making people feel the explosive power just by looking at it.
His hair was red, with every strand standing up towards the sky like a burning flame, and his body also exuded a strong aura of fire-based profound skills.
As soon as they saw the tall man appear, the faces of everyone in the hall changed visibly. Even Gongsun Yu, who had been so arrogant before, tensed his expression and revealed a deep fear.
Seeing this man, Xiao Qi was like seeing her own father. Her facial features were all smiling, and she took the initiative to greet him with graceful steps: "Hey! Master Zhi, what are you talking about? It is an honor for me to have you here. How could I blame you... Come on, Master Zhi, please take a seat. The trade fair has just begun, and the highlight has not yet arrived. I believe that today's 'highlight' will be of great interest to you, and it will definitely be worth the trip."
“Who is this person? He is so arrogant.” A person sitting on the right side of Yun Che asked his companion in a low voice.
"Didn't you hear Miss Xiaoqi calling him 'Master Zhi'? Of course he is from the Zhiyang Sect!"
"What! Zhiyang Sect? The second largest sect in the Divine Phoenix Empire after the Divine Phoenix Sect?"
"That's right! This man is called Zhi Yan, and he is the seventh young master of Zhi Yang Sect! He is extremely talented, and he is only 28 years old this year, but he is already a half-step Wang Xuan. It is said that he is already impacting Wang Xuan realm! In this Divine Phoenix Empire, except for the Phoenix Divine Sect, no one can afford to provoke him."
"The highlight that Xiaoqi mentioned is of course something we must watch. But the main purpose of my coming here today is the Phoenix Sunflower in Xiaoqi's hand." Zhi Yan said proudly, "My Wangxuan bottleneck has been loosened, and I am about to break through. I urgently need the help of Phoenix Sunflower, but that bastard Phoenix Divine Sect swept away all the Phoenix Sunflowers. Fortunately, Xiaoqi still has one. This Phoenix Sunflower is the one I want. Whoever competes with me for it... hehe."
Who Zhi Yan was had nothing to do with Yun Che. He had already stood up from his seat and was ready to turn around and leave, but when he heard Zhi Yan say the three words "Phoenix Sunflower", Yun Che's steps suddenly stopped...
It’s fucked up again!
