[Chapter 924 I Didn’t Rob]
Qian Jinyan’s eyes lit up and he put down the pill bottle in his hand. He checked and found that there were indeed 48 Qi Pills, and the grade was exactly the same as the one he mortgaged.
According to the agreement with Yang Yiyu last time, each Qi Pill cost 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and 48 Qi Pills were 480,000 spirit stones.
This was a huge amount. His authority was 50,000 spirit stones. If it exceeded 50,000 spirit stones, he had to ask his superiors. 480,000 spirit stones were beyond his authority.
So he stood up and said to Yang Yiyu, “Brother Wumian, my authority is limited. The amount of this transaction is too large. Please wait a moment. I need to ask my superiors. Is that okay with you?”
“Master Qian, go ahead. I’ll wait.” Yang Yiyu also knew that 480,000 was not a small amount for any force, and he understood Qian Jinyan, so he motioned him to wait.
After Qian Jinyan left, Meng Changqing, who had been standing behind Yang Yiyun, said worriedly, “Master, are you a little careless? If you trade too much at one time, someone will target you. Pills are always scarce in the entire Xishanzhou, especially high-grade Qi Pills. Although the Adventure Hall is honest, there is no guarantee that the people behind it will be jealous.”
After hearing what Meng Changqing said, Yang Yiyun thought about it and it was true. He only thought about using pills to pay back the spirit stones to build the sect of Yunmen, but he didn’t think deeply about it. It’s a matter of not showing off your wealth. It’s true that
he took out pills worth 480,000 spirit stones at one time, which would inevitably attract the attention of some people. You know, this is a world where the strong are respected, and the place where he is located is the most chaotic Xishanzhou in the five continents of the Shanhai Realm. It’s really possible that someone will target him.
“I didn’t think about it, but now that things have come to this, it doesn’t matter. We will go back as soon as possible after the transaction is completed. This is the Adventure King City, not a bandit’s nest. I think even if someone is jealous, they won’t dare to take action.” Yang Yiyu said to Meng Changqing. “That
‘s right. Anyway, our southern restricted area is not far from the Adventure King City. Let’s go back as soon as possible.” Meng Changqing said, but he was still worried. He was not an outsider like Yang Yiyu who was unfamiliar with the Mountain and Sea Realm. He was an old man who had traveled to most places in the Mountain and Sea Realm and had seen too many people’s hearts.
…
About ten minutes later, Qian Jinyan walked in respectfully with an old man. He looked about sixty years old, with triangular eyes squinting. As soon as he entered the door, he looked at Yang Yiyu. He didn’t hide his aura at all. In Yang Yiyu’s perception, this person was a great perfection in the Out-of-Body Realm.
He was wearing a white robe with gold edges, and there was a starry sea logo on his chest. Yang Yiyu knew that this was a logo that only the old man of the Adventure Hall could have.
I heard this from Zheng Binbin.
The sixty-year-old man in front of him was undoubtedly one of the ten elders of the Adventure Hall.
Zheng Binbin said that there were ten elders in the Adventure Hall, among which Grandpa Zheng Yanwang was the first elder, and he was also in the Spiritual Realm. The third elder Yuan Tiangang was also in the Spiritual Realm, and the ninth elder was in the Spiritual Realm. These three were the three major elder forces in the Adventure Hall, and each of them had other elders following and supporting them.
Qian Jinyan had said before that he was a man of the ninth elder, so the elder who appeared now should be a man of the ninth elder.
As expected, after coming in, Qian Jinyan pointed at Yang Yiyu and said to the old man, “Uncle Master, this is Wumian.”
Then he introduced Yang Yiyu, “Brother Wumian, this is the tenth elder of the Adventure Hall – Qian Buhuan, who is also my uncle. My uncle will be responsible for discussing this transaction with you in detail.”
Yang Yiyu nodded and clasped his fists and said, “Meet Fellow Daoist Qian.”
“Humph~” Qian Buhuan was very unhappy with Yang Yiyu being called a fellow Daoist. He was the tenth elder of the Adventure Hall. In his eyes, Yang Yiyu was just a junior with an aura in the early stage of the Out-of-Body Realm. What qualifications did he have to call him a fellow Daoist?
Little did he know that Yang Yiyu was a puppet, and in order to keep a low profile, he also suppressed his aura in the early stage of the Out-of-Body Realm.
But Qian Buhuan didn’t think so much. In his eyes, even if Yang Yiyu was a cultivator of the same realm as him, he had to call him an elder in a proper manner. How could an old man of the Adventure Hall be compared with an ordinary cultivator?
“Young man, don’t you know the rules? Do all adventurers have to pay respect to the elders of the Adventure Hall?” Qian Buhuan spoke coldly. He sat down while talking and looked down at Yang Yiyu.
Yang Yiyu listened to Qian Buhuan and got angry.
Damn it, I’m here to do business, not to recognize the master. What
the hell do you mean?
I’m here to do business, not to see your face.
Although Qian Buhuan is the tenth elder of the Adventure Hall, Yang Yiyu doesn’t care. He even beats Yuan Tiangang, not to mention Qian Buhuan.
So what if you have reached the Great Perfection of the Out-of-Body Realm?
If you make me angry, I will kill you.
It’s not like I can’t do it.
Yang Yiyu’s face darkened as he looked at Qian Buhuan and Qian Jinyan and sneered, “First of all, I don’t live in your Adventure King City. Secondly, I’m here to trade pills, and I have an equal relationship with you. Besides, who the hell do you think you are? I give you the face to call you a fellow Taoist. Do you think you are so great as an elder of the Adventure Hall? I won’t do this business anymore. Adventure Hall is not just for you. There are many downstream customers. Am I afraid that I can’t get the good pills in Xishanzhou?”
“You…” Qian Buhuan’s face turned blue because of Yang Yiyu’s words. He raised his fingers and looked at Yang Yiyu with trembling hands. At this moment, he really wanted to kill Yang Yiyu.
But… he couldn’t.
This is the Adventure Hall, an important place in the Adventure Hall.
Once he took action, it would attract the suppression of the monsters in the Law Enforcement Hall, not to mention that he was the tenth elder of the Adventure Hall, representing the Adventure Hall.
Originally, I just wanted to give Yang Yiyu a warning, to use my status and status to intimidate him, and to lower the price. After all, 10,000 spirit stones for a true qi pill, 480,000 spirit stones is really not a small amount, and lowering the price is the purpose.
Unexpectedly… I pretended too much, and it caused a backlash from Yang Yiyu.
Qian Buhuan didn’t expect this kid to play cards out of the ordinary.
Now that he was pissed off, he didn’t want to do business anymore.
Qian Buhuan couldn’t help but panic. Before he came, he received an order from his boss, the Ninth Elder, to take all 48 Qi Pills. There
will be a big reshuffle in the Adventure Hall. A batch of high-level Qi Pills will be even more powerful for them, and the pills must be left behind.
But they dare not use force here, and it’s even worse outside. If Yang Yiyu walks out of here and sells the pills to the forces of the First Elder or the Third Elder in a blink of an eye, then Qian Buhuan will definitely skin the Tenth Elder behind him.
Others don’t know, but Qian Buhuan knows the inside story. The three major realms of the Adventure Hall and the three major forces are seemingly united but actually at odds. Some time ago, it was rumored that the First Elder Zheng Yanwang got some treasure, and it was the treasure left by the Adventure King. Once Zheng Yanwang refines it and comes out of retreat, the Adventure Hall will set off a storm.
The third elder Yuan Tian just heard that he had broken into the southern restricted area for an unknown kid and was severely injured by the three demon cultivators in the southern restricted area. He is now recovering from his injuries.
As for the big boss above him, the tenth elder, he is also preparing for the upcoming reshuffle of the Adventure Hall. He must either gain great benefits or… have a way to preserve himself.
The three major forces are not idle.
There is no doubt that there will be a civil war, and elixirs will be scarce at that time, so Yang Yiyu must not be allowed to go out and sell the elixirs to the other two forces.
Although he was cursed by Yang Yiyu to the brink of an explosion, Qian Buhuan did not dare to offend Yang Yiyu after all. If he could not get the elixir, the tenth elder behind him would make him suffer.
Seeing that Yang Yiyu was about to leave, Qian Buhuan quickly gave Qian Jinyan a look.
Qian Jinyan was so surprised. He didn’t expect that his uncle’s bad habit of putting on airs would offend him. He didn’t expect that Yang Yiyu would be a person who would not suffer any loss. He left immediately. Qian Jinyan knew that the tenth elder valued elixirs, so he would stop Yang Yiyu even without Qian Buhuan’s signal.
“Brother Wumian, please stay…”
Qian Jinyan apologized to Yang Yiyu and said a lot of good things.
“Humph~” Yang Yiyu snorted coldly after stopping.
“Brother Wumian, you have brought all the spirit stones. 480,000 is not a small amount. Please count them.” Qian Jinyan took the storage ring from Qian Buhuan and handed it to Yang Yiyu with a smile. At this time, he didn’t dare to let Qian Buhuan trade with Yang Yiyu. If he offended Yang Yiyu, not only would the business fail, but his future would also be ruined. So he traded directly with Yang Yiyu.
Yang Yiyu narrowed his eyes and did not take the storage ring handed over by Qian Jinyan. Instead, he said something that almost made Qian Jinyan and Qian Buhuan furious: “The price has increased now. One pill costs 15,000 spirit stones. Take it or not.”
“Are you robbing me?” Qian Buhuan, who had been silent for a long time, could not help but get angry.
“Haha, the pills are mine, and the spirit stones are yours. I didn’t rob you. The transaction was voluntary.” Yang Yiyu was determined to give Qian Buhuan a taste of his own medicine. He could see that the other party cared a lot about the pills in his hand. If that was the case, if he didn’t blackmail you guys, he wouldn’t be Yang Yiyu from Earth.
