Chapter 49 The Emperor's Eldest Son (6)
"Brother! You're finally back! I have some news—"
As soon as Changqing returned to Diguan City, Ning Hao rushed out, looking excited.
This guy is really annoying.
Changqing frowned. "My father is very dissatisfied with me. He says I'm working in isolation and urges me to gain more experience outside."
"This is incredible!" Ning Hao stepped forward and put his arm around Chang Qing's neck. "Come on, there's some big news. Wan Jin Lou is holding an auction in the South China Sea, and one of the items up for auction is a Heavenly-Rank Youth-Preserving Pill. Tsk tsk, you have no idea how much those female cultivators care about their appearance. I heard that many fairy maidens from major sects are going to attend."
Changqing raised an eyebrow.
This is actually quite interesting.
The Heavenly-Rank Youth-Preserving Pill is an extremely rare item. It can be said that once you take one, your appearance will never change for the rest of your life.
If it were truly something like this being auctioned, I'm afraid quite a few female cultivators would go.
"Moreover, there are many other treasures as well. I've heard that the lowest level is a royal-grade magic weapon, and there's even a quasi-emperor-grade defensive magic weapon."
Ning Hao shook his head, these were all good stuff, he didn't believe this brute wouldn't be tempted.
Changqing nodded.
A quasi-emperor-level magic weapon?
He took out the Yin-Yang Shield he had just acquired, infused it with his magic power, and the Yin and Yang energies circulated, radiating brilliant light.
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!"
Ning Hao jumped up in shock.
The fact that a quasi-Emperor-level magic weapon could be produced so easily is quite shocking.
A hint of jealousy flashed in Ning Hao's eyes.
This guy is clearly a piece of trash abandoned by the Emperor, yet he can casually pull out anything that those big shots outside would painstakingly auction off.
This is definitely quite shocking.
"Can I...can I touch it?" His hand involuntarily reached out.
Changqing withdrew his hand, his smile not reaching his eyes.
"This is a life-saving item. My dad said we have to keep it safe."
Ning Hao cursed inwardly.
He forced a smile, "You're so stingy. Let's go, let's do something big."
Changqing, however, did not move his feet.
"Don't rush, my father also gave me a high-level breakthrough pill. I'll break through my cultivation level first."
Ning Hao almost cursed out loud.
What a waste! He really is a waste! Using a Breakthrough Pill for such a low-level breakthrough?! And a high-level one at that?! It's an absolute waste!
He felt a pang of heartache.
If only he had a high-level breakthrough pill, he could easily advance from the King Realm to the Emperor Realm! You have to understand, he's been stuck in the late King Realm for many years.
He hid his cultivation level and followed this kid, and now he's just wasting his talents like this?
For a moment, he even had the urge to snatch the kid's storage bag.
No, no, that won't do.
This guy is, after all, that person's son, and his things aren't something ordinary people can touch. I'd better just do my job according to that person's wishes.
He suppressed his inner impulse, shook his head heavily, and finally calmed down.
However, the sudden inner turmoil he felt just now had caused his facial muscles to contort, making him look quite comical.
"Is your face twitching?"
Changqing took a step back and asked somewhat warily.
"No, no, you, you should hurry up and break through. With the Breakthrough Pill, it should be easy to break through..."
Ning Hao turned and left in a hurry.
He felt that if he continued talking, he would start to cry.
...
Changqing definitely needs to cultivate; he can't waste so many resources he's gathered.
However, the practice time should not be too long, otherwise some people will become impatient.
This time, he broke through to a new level.
He shall be made a king!
Breakthrough Pills are really useful.
As Ning Hao stepped out of the mansion, he was already eagerly waiting. Sensing that the aura emanating from him had reached the general level, Ning Hao felt a pang of pain in his heart.
Heavenly Realm Breakthrough Pill!
It's a waste to try to break through to such a low level.
However, thinking that with this kid's talent, he would probably only reach this level in his entire life, he felt a little comforted.
"Let's go, hurry up, I've already made arrangements, let's go directly through the teleportation array."
"Alright."
Changqing nodded; it was indeed time to do something.
The two arrived in the north of the city, used the teleportation array to reach the southern region, and then boarded a cloud ship bound for Hundred Flowers Island.
High in the sky, white clouds float.
Changqing stood on the edge of the boat, looking down at the vast blue sea, with occasional small islands flashing by.
“Yes, holding the auction on an island is a wise choice. After all, it’s easy to see everything from the outside, and if someone tries to rob us, it will be difficult to escape discreetly.”
He thought to himself.
Wan Jin Lou is the largest merchant guild in this world, and the cloud ship it provides is extremely luxurious, with three floors and a capacity of hundreds of people. At this moment, there are quite a few people on the deck of the cloud ship. Chang Qing is dressed in extraordinary clothes, and his body is surrounded by a treasure-like aura, obviously carrying a treasure. Many people can't help but look in his direction.
"Young man, are you going to attend an auction?"
The young man in purple robes put one arm around the girl's waist, walked up to her, and asked with a flirtatious smile.
"roll!"
Changqing glanced at him and uttered a single word.
The young man in purple robes' expression changed, but the girl he was holding started to giggle.
"Young Master Long, it seems you've been rejected."
With a slender turn of her waist, the girl broke free from the purple-robed youth's embrace and stepped forward with alluring gait.
"Hey bro~"
Her voice was soft and sweet, almost cloyingly so.
Changqing didn't even look at it, and gave her another word.
"roll!"
"Pfft."
On the deck, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Changqing turned around and was slightly taken aback.
Not far away, an old man with a panicked expression was pulling the girl who had just laughed away back. The two looked familiar; they were the same two people the original owner had tied up.
Changqing:......
What a small world.
However, he had no interest in beautiful women right now, so he glanced at one and then pretended not to recognize her, looking away.
Both the young man in purple and the woman accompanying him were flushed red, having been humiliated in this way twice in the same way.
"Kid, you wait. Once you get off the cloud ship, let's see who can protect you."
The young man in purple clenched his fists, but ultimately dared not make a move on Wan Jin Lou's ship.
The two glared at Changqing fiercely and then backed away.
On the other side, exactly.
An old man is disciplining his daughter.
"Are you crazy? How dare you laugh out loud at that time? If we mess with that little devil, both my daughter and I will lose our lives."
The girl was also somewhat frightened.
"I... I just couldn't resist. Luckily, he didn't recognize us."
The young man in purple robes curiously approached.
"Old man, do you know that arrogant brat?"
The old man's expression changed. He glanced at the young man in purple, and thinking of the conflict on the deck earlier, he felt a pang of pity. After hesitating for a moment, he moved closer.
"Huh?! It's actually—"
The next moment, the young man in purple stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
His female companion quickly reached out and helped him up.
"Brother Zhong, what's wrong?"
The young man in purple shook his head, his face deathly pale. Who would have thought he'd offended that troublemaker? Although his father had some influence, he was no match for that other man's father.
"Let's go, let's go back to our room."
He quickly pulled his female companion back to his room, and then they disembarked at the next stop, without even going to the auction.
