Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 228 Secret Token
At noon on the second day, in Tianyun City, on the second floor of Jingya Pavilion.

After Ye Xuan took a sip of tea, he looked out the window towards the street below.

Perhaps because the auction held once every five years was about to be held, on the wide avenues in Tianyun City, horse-drawn carriages of warrior families would occasionally gallop past on the streets, with flags of various colors such as "Song Family", "Wan Family", and "Qin Family" erected on the carriages. Dozens of True Spirit Realm warriors would often surround the carriages, looking very majestic.

The low-level warriors on the street naturally gave way when they saw such a convoy, not daring to block the road. The family warriors on the vehicles raised their heads and looked at the independent warriors on both sides of the road with naked contempt and disdain.

Last night, Datian and Yaoyao left Tianyun City and returned to their own sect.

However, before leaving, Datian gave Ye Xuan a token.

The token is an identity token that can be used to enter the auction in the near future.

Not everyone can enter the auction site at that time, a referral token is required!
"Have you heard that the legendary Half-Saint Bones might appear at this auction?"

The conversation between the two people caught Ye Xuan's attention.
"Humph, it's just a severed finger. Otherwise, who would put it up for auction? Think about it, it's a rare item!"

“Haha, even if it’s just a broken finger, I’m afraid there will be many people who will fight for it. Moreover, I heard that the Demonic Twin Emperors are now in Tianyun City. It is very likely that they came here just for this broken finger of the Semi-Saint.”

There was a lot of discussion in the teahouse, most of them were talking about the auction in two days. When Ye Xuan heard the words "half-saint's broken finger", his heart skipped a beat.

"There will actually be an auction of the legendary Half-Saint Bone at this Tianyun City auction. What price will that cost!?" Ye Xuan was shocked.

You know, a Semi-Saint is at the pinnacle of martial arts and is a myth standing in this world!

Such a powerful thing could almost tear apart the starry sky and crush the earth! And he doubted the authenticity of such broken bones in the Tianyun City auction.

Ye Xuan touched the purple little snake on his wrist. The spirit pet's body was obviously shaken when it heard the Half-Saint Bones just now.

"Hehe, the Bi Hai Pavilion has placed a huge bet on this auction. Not only are the remains of a semi-saint, but I heard there will also be a heavenly-level martial spirit appearing!"

"The Heavenly Rank Martial Spirit is indeed powerful, but I have found out some information, and there is also a vague power of law!"

"The power of laws!? Are you kidding me? How can such a thing be captured? What kind of power of laws is this!?"

"Who knows? The auction house is keeping a close watch this time."

Ye Xuan was slightly surprised as he listened to the discussions. It was truly unimaginable that an auction would be held by the top sect in Nanzhou.

Next, he heard about many treasures, such as a spiritual fire that was ranked in the top 100 on the spiritual fire list and a seventh-grade cultivation method!
At nightfall.

On the street, Ye Xuan looked up and saw an elegant and simple, yet magnificent four-story towering pavilion standing beside the street, and on the door plaque were three big characters "Yuebao Pavilion"!
According to Datan, the Yuebao Pavilion is a shop opened by the Gemini Sect in Tianyun City, where various items can be bought, sold, or exchanged.

As soon as he entered, Ye Xuan was slightly stunned.

The bright hall can hold hundreds of people without feeling crowded, the long counters made of precious crystal stones, and a dozen tall women with long legs and white stockings wearing the same cheongsam, all of which give people an absolutely grand shock.

Inside the hall, three beautiful women in cheongsams were explaining something to several warriors who looked like guests.

There are many various items placed on the crystal counter, ranging from the lowest-grade raw materials to the most commonly used weapons and jade talismans.

"Sir, what do you want to see? I can introduce it to you. The things in our store will definitely satisfy you!"

A cheongsam woman saw Ye Xuan enter the hall, and immediately walked up to him with her long white silk legs, saying with a slight smile on her face.

"Ahem~~" Ye Xuan coughed dryly. He had to admit that the Yuebao Pavilion opened by the Gemini Sect was very grand, and the maids were all tall and had good temperament.

"I want to sell some things!" Ye Xuan handed out a cloth bag and said lightly.

The maid in the cheongsam smiled sweetly, took the bag, opened it, and frowned slightly. It turned out that there were several storage rings and some low-level monster cores in the bag. She was disappointed for a moment, and even laughed secretly. Although the selling price of the storage rings was not low, it was only eight pieces, which was nothing for their Yuebao Pavilion. As for the dozens of monster cores, they were even less valuable. The commission she got from this transaction was not enough to pay for her meal.

At this moment, a few discordant laughs came from the other side:

"Look at the way he's dressed, he's just a bumpkin!"

"Haha, a few storage rings and some low-level monster cores can also be sold for dozens of Yuanshi."

"Shh, please keep your voice down, I am a True Spirit Realm warrior."

Ye Xuan looked over when he heard the voice, and saw a few young men in brocade clothes walking into the hall, looking at him with contempt.

Doesn't he remember when he offended them?

"Excuse me, junior sister, what standards do I have to meet in your Yuebao Pavilion to become a VIP, go up to the second floor, and enjoy VIP treatment?" One of the disciples in brocade clothes with gold leaf patterns on the sleeves looked at Ye Xuan with an inexplicable arrogant smile and asked the cheongsam lady next to her.

"Sir, your transaction volume has reached 50,000 Yuanshi. You can go to the second floor and enjoy VIP treatment." The cheongsam woman smiled sweetly and was particularly kind.

"Is that so? I'll go upstairs next time." The male disciple in brocade clothes nodded, then looked at Ye Xuan again, with a seemingly gentle smile, but with a hint of provocation in it.

The disciples who accompanied him also showed an arrogant look on their faces, as if they were saying to Ye Xuan: Look, country bumpkin, we are VIPs, can you afford the transaction amount of 50,000 yuan worth of stones?
Ye Xuan glanced at these young men and saw that they all had a meager cultivation level in the True Yuan Realm.

"This is the token of your Yuebao Pavilion, right?" Ye Xuan took out the token given by Datan, played with it and said.

The cheongsam maid was a little disappointed at first. Her performance in the past two days was not good. If she continued like this, she might be fired. But when she saw the token in Ye Xuan's hand, her body trembled violently and she cried out in surprise, "Supreme Level Member Token!?"

The cheongsam maid opened her eyes wide and looked at the token in Ye Xuan's hand with disbelief.

On the token there was a special mountain and sea pattern of Yuebao Pavilion. That mountain and sea pattern was refined using an advanced method and could not be faked.

As soon as she finished speaking, the other maids in the hall who were originally smiling suddenly froze their smiles, and the next moment they all turned their heads and stared at the token.

"That's right, that's the supreme token of the senior member!"

"Oh my god, could this boy be a secret disciple from the main sect?"

"He's dressed so modestly, he's not here for an inspection."

……

The eyes of the maids when they looked at Ye Xuan changed.

The cheongsam maid in front of Ye Xuan was trembling. She took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in her heart, and bowed to Ye Xuan respectfully, saying:
"Sir, I...I was a little slow just now, please don't blame me. Now, can you please follow me to the fourth floor to discuss the transaction?"

Ye Xuan smiled silently. He didn't expect that the token given to him by Datian would have such weight. It seemed that Datian and Yaoyao's identities in the Gemini Sect were not simple either.

However, the maid in front of her had originally had a very good attitude, and now she was even more respectful and docile like a kitten.

"Lead the way," Ye Xuan said.

"Yes." The maid in cheongsam hurriedly led the way and greeted Ye Xuan respectfully as they climbed the stairs beside the hall.

This made those young men who were showing off before dumbfounded, and they looked at each other in disbelief.

The fourth floor! That is the highest level of supreme treatment, which is not comparable to the VIP second floor at all, and it is definitely not something that can be reached by spending a lot of resources. Those who have that status must be extremely extraordinary!
"Sir, I am Xiaoqian, the No. 10 receptionist of this treasure pavilion. If you need anything, you can ask me and I will definitely satisfy you."

The cheongsam woman led Ye Xuan to the fourth floor and walked towards the corridor on the side.

At the end of the corridor was a red stone door. The woman in cheongsam pressed the mechanism and the stone door opened. Two passages appeared before their eyes, one to the left and the other to the right.

At this time, the cheongsam woman named Xiaoqian smiled charmingly at Ye Xuan and said softly, "Sir, the passage on the left leads directly to the trading hall, and the one on the right is the Supreme Area. Only people of noble status like you can enter this Supreme Area. Let's go to the right."

With a giggle, Xiaoqian took the lead and walked towards the passage on the right, leaving Ye Xuan with a charming figure.

Ye Xuan looked at the woman's slender waist and round buttocks, and the smooth curves that swayed as she walked. There was a slight strange look in his eyes, but he also took a step to keep up.

"Sir, we have ten private rooms in the Supreme Area. You can be absolutely assured when exchanging or purchasing anything here. We will keep your secrets absolutely confidential. From the looks of you, you probably don't go out often, right? I wonder what I should call you, Sir?"

As Xiao Qian spoke, she slowed down her steps and stretched out her white and tender arm to hold Ye Xuan's arm. The bulging left peak of her cheongsam rubbed against Ye Xuan's arm intentionally or unintentionally.

Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt something surprisingly soft on his left arm. His entire left arm seemed to be numb and tingling. His heartbeat accelerated, and he quickly pulled his arm out of Xiao Qian's arm, smiled awkwardly, and said, "My name is Ye Xuan."

Xiaoqian burst out laughing when she saw this.

She noticed that the handsome young man actually blushed, and couldn't help but said coquettishly, "Young master, I guess you haven't had much experience with men and women, right? If you don't mind my vulgar appearance, would you be willing to serve you tonight? Although our Twin Sect is not as good as the Joy Sect in dual cultivation, our Twin Moon Picking method is also delicious. Moreover, although Xiaoqian has only reached the Great Perfection of the True Essence Realm, she is a perfect body."

Ye Xuan's heart was beating wildly when he heard this. What was going on? Wasn't he here to exchange spiritual materials? Why did he seem to have entered a brothel?

Datan, come out and explain it to me.

"Well... I have been practicing to avoid women recently. If the girl seduces me again, I may have to find someone else." Ye Xuan shook his head and said.

Although he was quite tempted, he still knew the priorities and now just wanted to exchange enough Yuanshi to prepare for the auction in a few days.

Xiao Qian's face turned pale after hearing what Ye Xuan said. The reason why she used sex to seduce Ye Xuan was just to get close to Ye Xuan, who had an extraordinary status, and wanted to enter the main sect in the future.

You know, being a receptionist at Yuebao Pavilion is not an easy job. If she fails to complete a specified amount of transactions within a certain period of time, she will be demoted back to the branch sect.

Therefore, she would not want to do that. Even other female hosts would probably throw themselves into the arms of Ye Xuan, a secret disciple of the main sect. It was because their martial arts talents were mediocre that they could only be outer disciples of branch sects, and could not be compared with those inner disciples or even the high and mighty and unattainable secret disciples of the main sect.

Of course, Xiao Qian was not so seductive to all the young men from the main sect. She had to say that the young man in front of her was really handsome. Although he was not very handsome, his strong blood and pure yang energy made her heart beat fast.

"Mr. Ye, please forgive me for my rudeness before. Don't worry, Xiaoqian will never dare to be presumptuous again."

Xiaoqian put away the charming look on her face and hurriedly and respectfully led Ye Xuan to a room on the side of the corridor.
