Chapter 304 Five-Colored Lotus

Five-Colored Lotus is not too rare, but high-quality five-colored lotus is extremely rare.

Gao Xian felt that a seventh-grade five-colored lotus was not good enough, but it would be difficult to find a higher-grade five-colored lotus in a short period of time.

Gao Xian pondered for a moment and asked, "Brother Jin, how many spirit stones do you think it would take to buy a seventh-grade five-color lotus?"

"A seventh-grade five-color lotus takes at least a thousand years to grow. The conditions required are very harsh. And since it's an auction, the price must be very high."

Seeing Gao Xian's unhappy expression, Jin Dabao hurriedly said, "Although the seventh-grade five-color lotus is precious, the demand is not high. It is either used to condense the golden elixir or to refine the elixir.

"In my opinion, four or five million low-grade spirit stones are enough to buy the five-colored lotus."

Gao Xian nodded. He could accept this price.

"Brother Jin, please help me find a higher grade five-colored lotus..."

Gao Xian still didn't give up, hoping that he could find the ninth-grade five-colored lotus.

With the blessing of his great vajra and Taizhen idol, he could even digest the nine-grade five-colored lotus.

If Yun Qingxuan had not specified that the golden elixir had to be refined nine times, he would have thought that the third-grade five-colored lotus would be enough.

Now he understood the purpose of the five-colored lotus, which was to provide pure five-element spiritual energy when forming the elixir.

His goal is the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill, and of course the higher the grade of the five-colored lotus, the better.

As for the Quyuan Pill used to condense the golden elixir, the sect already has it and there is no need to seek it outside.

A large sect like the Qingyun Sect must control the important resources needed for advancement to the Golden Core stage. Only in this way can the sect's strength be maintained and order within the sect can be effectively controlled.

If you want to form a pill within the Qingyun Sect, you must first ask for the Qingyun Sect's opinion.

Gao Xian has the support of the sect, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about this.

However, the Great Five Elements Kung Fu he practiced was not the sect's secret method, so the sect did not have the corresponding spiritual objects for forming the elixir.

After coming out of Wanbao Tower, Gao Xian returned to his home in Qingyun City.

When Zhou Ye saw Gao Xian coming back, his old face lit up with a smile.

The rumors about Gao Xian had long spread throughout Qingyun City. After all, it involved the secrets of the golden elixir, which was both erotic and bloody, and contained all the most important elements for spreading.

Gao Xian's notoriety was far-reaching, but it was a great benefit to Zhou Ye. Others knew that he was Gao Xian's man, so they all respected him and gave him face.

Now when you go out to do things, as long as you show your Gao Xian name, almost anything can be easily accomplished.

Of course, Zhou Ye is also very sensible, and everything he does is within his ability.

It’s not impossible to accomplish it without Gao Xian’s reputation, it just requires a lot of effort.

Gao Xian is not at home all year round, so Zhou Ye is the one in charge here and he is very unhappy.

Zhou Ye had already adjusted his mindset towards Gao Xian. He knew that there was no chance for him to become Gao Xian's father-in-law, so this opportunity was missed.

Now everyone said that Gao Xian would become a golden elixir and had a bright future. He was already satisfied to be able to rely on Gao Xian to make a living.

In addition, Zhou Ye actually knew Gao Xian quite well. He knew that this guy was actually a good person, and could be said to be kind. Of course, this guy could be cruel and ruthless. He had a deep understanding of this.

Zhou Ye bowed and greeted respectfully: "Master Gao, you are back."

Gao Xian glanced at Zhou Ye and said with a smile, "We men don't have to be so polite."

"I'm the housekeeper. I have to distinguish between the superior and the inferior." Zhou Ye said with a smile.

Gao Xian didn't say anything else. He never liked to be superior. He also tried his best to take care of the old people around him.

Although Zhou Ye was a bit slick, he was actually not a bad person. He was also nice to him in the early years. He always remembered this.

As for Zhou Yuling's apprenticeship, it cannot be said that Zhou Ye was wrong.

Gao Xian was a little angry at the time, but now he has let it go. However, since calling him that would make Zhou Ye feel at ease, he would let him do it.

"Uncle Zhou, I have some spiritual objects and elixirs here, please help me deal with them."

Ye Huanyuan has quite a few things on him that can be carried by a Jindan Zhenren, and most of them are of some value.

However, these things are of low quality and very messy, so they are not suitable to be handed over to Jin Dabao for processing.

Zhou Ye is familiar with these people, and he can sell them for a good price if he processes them slowly.

"Master Gao, those things were sold last time, for a total of 237,000 spirit stones."

Zhou Ye took out a storage bag and handed it to Gao Xian with both hands, "I've replaced them all with high-quality spirit stones."

Gao Xian took it casually, took out the top-grade spirit stones from it, and returned the remaining seventy mid-grade spirit stones to Zhou Ye.

"Uncle Zhou has worked hard, and the family's daily expenses can be paid from here."

Maintaining such a large house and having so many servants actually requires quite a lot of daily expenses.

Gao Xian did not settle the details with Zhou Ye. He knew that Zhou Ye would definitely make some money, but the old man should know his limits and there was no need to worry too much about it.

"Master Gao, Mr. and Mrs. Wei Cheng have come to visit twice. I think they have something to do..."

Wei Cheng and Wei Shuangshuang, a pair of foundation-building monks, lived next door. Zhou Ye often met and greeted them, and received gifts from them during festivals. He had a good relationship with them.

On the other hand, Zhou Ye always felt that Gao Xian was somewhat interested in Wei Cheng and his wife. He just didn't know whether this interest was in their business or simply in Wei Shuangshuang...

After reading the novels written by Gao Xian, Zhou Ye felt that Gao Xian must be a playful person. It was not surprising to have such thoughts.

Gao Xian naturally didn't see the old man's obscene thoughts. He didn't want to bother with Wei Cheng and his wife. The businesses in Nancheng were a bit too dirty.

But now he changed his mind. He decided that he couldn't just rely on Wanbaolou and he had to cast his net as wide as possible.

Nancheng District is home to all kinds of shady businesses from the thirty-six Qingyun sects. If you are lucky, you might be able to get the five-colored lotus.

He instructed, "Uncle Zhou, go see if these two are here and invite them over."

Zhou Ye was efficient and brought Wei Cheng and his wife back in a short while.

After not seeing each other for two years, Wei Shuangshuang was wearing a lake blue skirt and a dark blue wide-sleeved jacket. She was dressed formally and elegantly, but also a little conservative. However, she still couldn't hide her graceful and voluptuous figure.

There was a hint of uneasiness in her bright eyes and her red lips were slightly parted. Her somewhat naive young woman temperament was very charming.

Wei Chengji has obviously aged a lot, and the serious injury he suffered must have had a significant impact on him.

The two men were extremely respectful when they saw Gao Xian, and even spoke and acted with a bit of caution.

They were in business, so they were well-informed. Naturally, they knew about Gao Xian's rumors.

To be honest, both of them felt a little regretful at this moment. If they had known Gao Xian was such a person, they should have stayed away from him.

But they were reckless and insisted on getting closer, and as a result, Gao Xian came to them.

Gao Xian could see that the couple was a little nervous, so he didn't explain. It was better for him to be afraid, as it would save him a lot of trouble.

"How's business, both of you?"

"Very good, very good."

Wei Shuangshuang responded hastily, "Once Shui Yuying leaves, business in the South District will be good again."

As she spoke, she stole a glance at Gao Xian and saw that Gao Xian had a half-smile on his face, but his eyes were as bright as stars, as if he could see directly into her heart, which made her a little panicked.

After two years, Gao Xian has actually changed a lot.

As a foundation-building cultivator, Wei Shuangshuang's perception was very sharp. Moreover, she had had close contact with Gao Xian several times and had an extremely deep impression of him.

Two years ago, Gao Xian was gentle and elegant, with no airs in his manners and even a bit of sophistication.

Gao Xian is now more handsome, and looks flawless and perfect like a god. He is still very polite and gentle, but he makes people feel awe.

But his eyes were fixed on her, could it be that he fell in love with her? Gao Xian didn't know that Wei Shuangshuang would imagine so many things, he said: "I'm looking for you two to ask for your help, I need a high-grade five-color lotus.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"If you two run businesses in South City and have high-quality five-colored lotus, please contact me..."

Wei Cheng and Wei Shuangshuang were relieved, it turned out that Gao Xian really had something to talk to them about. They nodded repeatedly and promised to keep an eye out for Gao Xian.

When they got home, Wei Cheng suddenly said to Wei Shuangshuang with a serious look, "What do you think Mr. Gao meant?"

Wei Shuangshuang looked puzzled: "Isn't he looking for the five-colored lotus?"

"I think it's more than that."

Wei Cheng looked at Wei Shuangshuang deeply, with a complicated expression on his square face.

Wei Shuangshuang was a little unhappy about being stared at, "What do you mean, is it possible that he has a crush on me?!"

"South City is in chaos right now, and the two of us can't keep things under control. If we can use Mr. Gao's name, business will be much easier."

Wei Cheng hesitated and said, "If Mr. Gao doesn't leave at night, go and beg him."

Wei Shuangshuang's pretty face flushed red, "Wei Cheng, what do you mean?"

Wei Cheng sighed and lowered his head and said, "Now that things have come to this, can we still resist?"

"We, the Wei family, are not to be trifled with." Wei Shuangshuang's chest heaved with anger, and her breathing became heavier.

"How is it compared to Shui Yuying?"

Wei Cheng shook his head and whispered, "It's not a bad thing to be able to get in touch with him. Why don't you go..."

When Wei Shuangshuang thought of the rumors about Gao Xian, she felt a chill all over her body, and the boiling anger in her heart was instantly extinguished.

Gao Xian had finished dinner and was reading in the study when he saw Zhou Ye leading Wei Shuangshuang in with a sneaky look on his face.

Then, Zhou Ye just left, closing the door tightly.

What surprised Gao Xian even more was that Wei Shuangshuang was wearing a beautiful white fox fur coat that covered her entire body.

The weather was a bit cold, but Wei Shuangshuang was a foundation-building cultivator, why did she wear so much when visiting his home? Before Gao Xian could say anything, Wei Shuangshuang took off her white fox fur by herself. She was wearing a royal blue tube top, a skirt of the same color, and a layer of gauze smock outside.

Even through the blouse, one could see her skin was as white as snow, especially the plump and smooth skin of a young woman, which seemed to be overflowing.

Gao Xian immediately understood that this was a beauty trap, no, it was about sacrificing oneself voluntarily.

He was a little amused and helpless. He was pure and innocent and devoted to Taoism, but in the eyes of outsiders, he was a lustful man and a thief who loved his wife.

This is a bit embarrassing.

You're testing him with this, trying to confuse his mind! What a witch! Gao Xian thought for a moment and put the fox fur on Wei Shuangshuang, "It's cold in the room, you better put on something, Taoist friend."

Wei Shuangshuang was a little surprised. She was prepared, but Gao Xian did this. What did he mean?

She saw it clearly just now, Gao Xian's eyes didn't look like those of a gentleman.

"You must have misunderstood..."

Gao Xian explained, but Wei Shuangshuang didn't really believe it. She said with some embarrassment: "I came here, but I didn't get the job done. I'm going back like this. Old Wei doesn't believe it either."

Wei Shuangshuang's eyes flickered as she spoke, and her cautiousness yet tenderness revealed a willingness to let Gao Xian do whatever he wanted, which even moved Gao Xian a little.

Gao Xian was just tempted, but thought it was nothing, the key was how to do it.

He still sent Wei Shuangshuang away, but agreed to let Wei Shuangshuang act under his name.

Of course, this may be good for Wei Shuangshuang and others in the short term, but in the long run, it may not be a good thing.

Gao Xian also explained the pros and cons. As for what Wei Shuangshuang and the others choose, it's up to them. He only wants the five-colored lotus.

Anyway, Zhou Ye was watching, so he didn't bother to pay attention to anything else.

Gao Xian stayed in Qingyun City temporarily. After all, the city was lively and popular, where he could relax and have a rest.

It was not until April that Gao Xian returned to Xuandu Peak.

There is nothing to do in the mountains, so Gao Xian only gives two lectures a month, and the rest of the time is very free.

Li Feihuang would come and stay for three to five days a month, and Zhou Yuling would come occasionally.

Fortunately, they won’t touch each other, so there is no embarrassment.

Gao Xian practiced slowly and his condition improved. In July, he naturally broke through to the eighth level of foundation building.

Life expectancy increased by ten years, reaching 650 years.

In the blink of an eye, it was October. Gao Xian was reading in his room when he suddenly received a letter from Zhou Ye via flying sword.

"It's urgent. Please come back quickly, Mr. Gao."

Gao Xian flicked the flying sword, it was definitely given to Zhou Ye by him. But what could Zhou Ye be in such a hurry?

Any news about the five-colored lotus?

Gao Xian decided to go and take a look. No one in Qingyun City dared to touch him!
