Fairies, please don't talk to me about love

“Sister Ruyi, Master Ye, please wait here for me… I’m a little… um.”

"Little Ji Xuan, do you want me to accompany you?"

"No, no, I can take care of myself!"

"Ok."

----

"Three hundred spirit silver."

"can."

When we finally arrived at the carriage dealership, the carriage had been almost completely packed.

But fortunately, there are still a few empty ones. Although they are a bit expensive, at least they are available.

And the price is not much more expensive than those carriages that have already been booked.

After collecting the silver medal given by the driver, they found an inn to stay in.

"Master Lingyun, how much money do you have left?"

Zhang Ruyi had wanted to ask this question for a long time.

She always felt that Ye Lingtian seemed to have endless money. He would buy whatever Xuan Feng wanted along the way, regardless of whether it was of any practical use. She, who had been following him all the time, had hardly spent any money along the way.

It's been nearly a year since I came out, and I must have spent at least 10,000 spiritual silvers, right?

It is not an exaggeration to say that ten thousand spiritual silvers is a huge sum of money for a rural girl like her.

"I don't know."

Ye Lingtian has now truly achieved financial freedom. He has the pocket money that Ye Qinglin gave him before, as well as the money he earned from selling pills to the elder of Danfeng.

Before leaving, Yunnan Chu also gave him a token. As long as he showed this token, he could get free access to all the sects or family businesses affiliated with Qingyun Sword Sect or on good terms with Qingyun Sword Sect.

"I suddenly remembered something. That junior sister asked me before, do you have a powerful background? Is it true?"

"fake."

As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of Xuan Feng's rolling eyes.

Your background isn't impressive enough?

You have abducted two of the three strongest men in Qianzhou, and one of them has become your master. How powerful do you think you can be?

"Sister Ruyi, don't listen to his nonsense! The young master's family is very powerful!"

"I knew it, little Ji Xuan, come and talk to your sister..."

"Master's house is so big!"

Xuan Feng opened his arms wide and spoke as if it were really true.

"Wow--"

"The line of my servants is so long!"

"Wow--"

"Sister, don't be fooled by him. When it's time for him to pay you, just ask him to pay you. Don't be polite!"

After saying that, they both looked at Ye Lingtian, who had a helpless look on his face, and laughed at the same time.

"Ji Xuan is right about one thing. If you want to buy anything, just tell me. You're welcome."

Chapter 8: The Phoenix Clan

"Master, we should be there soon, right?"

Ye Lingtian and his three companions rode in the carriage for a month. During this period, they passed through Duizhou and have now entered Lizhou, not far from their destination.

"Young man, we should be able to reach the place where the meeting is being held this afternoon."

"it is good."

Ye Lingtian retracted his head and immediately saw Xuan Feng jumping happily in the carriage.

"Great! Finally we don't have to ride in a carriage!"

She had never ridden in such a low-end thing. Usually, she would either fly to anywhere she wanted to go by herself, or travel around with Ji Yuanqing on a flying sword.

The carriage was bumpy all the way, making her miserable.

When they arrived at the place, Xuan Feng jumped off the carriage first and took a deep breath of fresh air.

"Why didn't you tell me if you felt dizzy?"

After straightening the slightly shaky Xuan Feng, Ye Lingtian asked.

Since she is carriage-sick, they can just spend a little more money to take a spirit boat.

"It's my first time..."

"It's the first time—that's right."

There is really no possibility that a divine beast of her status would ride in a carriage.

"Next time I will pay attention."

After talking about trivial matters, they looked up at the scenery around them.

Lizhou is very different from Qianzhou. When traveling on the road in Qianzhou, apart from the post stations set up by the imperial dynasty, there are basically no cities or towns along the way. The entire road is almost surrounded by dense forests and grasslands.

It’s different in Lizhou. After passing one post station, you can see at least one city on the way to the next post station, and each city is quite large.

If you think about it carefully, you can understand that Lizhou is rich in resources, and there are figures of the level of the God of Alchemy that attract masters from all walks of life to boost the economy, so wealth is inevitable.

"What a huge city..."

They were outside the city gate at this time, and there were already many small vendors setting up stalls just outside the city gate, so they could easily guess what was going on inside.

"Master Lingyun, there is still some time before that meeting, why don't we go out for a walk first?"

Zhang Ruyi saw that this place was so lively and bustling, and subconsciously felt that everything in this city was very expensive.

In that case, it would be better to stay outside for a while. After all, it is easy to find an inn outside the city.

But Ye Lingtian didn't want to.

What they lack now is not money, but opportunity.

"In that case, I'll listen to you, sir."

......

"Stop, what are you doing here?"

"We are from Qianzhou, and we are here to attend the alchemist seminar..."

"500 wen per person."

Before Ye Lingtian could finish his explanation, the soldier guarding the city reached out to him and asked for money.

Ye Lingtian could only obediently take out two pieces of spiritual silver and hand them to him, then took Zhang Ruyi and Xuan Feng into the city.

"I saw that guy took the money and stuffed it directly into his ring. Master Ye, do you think it's possible that we don't need any money to enter the city?"

"That's right. When he heard I was from another place, he immediately reached out to ask for money. He must be taking advantage of us because we don't know the rules and trying to make some money from us."

After hearing what Ye Lingtian said, Xuan Feng's cheeks puffed up with anger.

"How can I tolerate that? I will teach him a lesson!"

Ye Lingtian grabbed Xuan Feng and stopped her good deed.

"Little Ji Xuan, if you commit a crime here now, it will be very troublesome--"

Seeing that Zhang Ruyi also started to persuade him, Xuan Feng finally gave up the idea.

"Okay, let him go."

They walked around the city, found a relatively cheap inn and booked a room, then went out again to look for the opportunity they wanted.

After asking around, they learned that the Huangji Chamber of Commerce in this city would hold an auction for several consecutive days.

Moreover, the scale of this auction is not small. There are even rumors that the elixir made by the God of Alchemy himself will be the finale of one of the auctions.

They asked vendors along the way and finally found the location of the Huangji Chamber of Commerce in this city.

"Are you three going to buy something or attend the auction?"

A female cultivator in the Dan Hua realm received them. She very politely asked Ye Lingtian and his group about their purpose of visit.

"auctions."

"Then please follow me."

The female cultivator took out three masks, handed them to the three of them, and then took them to the auction venue.

The auction had already started for a while.

"Eighth-rank Wind God Grass, starting price is two thousand spirit silvers!"

There was a middle-aged man standing on the stage at the bottom, and it was obvious that he was the auctioneer here.

People in the field raised their signs to increase the price, and it continued until the end, when a voice from the podium scared everyone back.

"Ten thousand spirit silvers. I want them. Next one."

They had just raised the price to 4000 when the man more than doubled it, which scared them so much that they dared not raise the price any further.

"That guy is really rich. Tsk, if he is so rich, why doesn't he just buy this Chamber of Commerce?"

Many important figures from large families or sects came to this alchemist seminar, and the one who just bid the price was the most powerful and wealthy one among them.

"Hush, do you want to die?"

After looking around and realizing that he was not being targeted, the person who spoke up to give a warning breathed a sigh of relief.

"He is the eldest son of the Shenhuang clan in Kanzhou. If he heard what you just said, I'm afraid you won't even be able to leave this Chamber of Commerce!"

"Tsk, eh!"

Lamenting the injustice of the world, the man seemed to have accepted his fate and said no more.

"The Divine Phoenix Clan?"

Zhang Ruyi, who was not concentrating, accidentally heard the private conversation between the two people.

"Master Lingyun, do you know the Divine Phoenix Clan?"

She elbowed Ye Lingtian to pull him back from his serious state, and then asked.

"I don't know. You can ask Ji Xuan. She knows much more than I do."

Ye Lingtian leaned back, revealing Xuan Feng, who was sleeping on his arms with drooling.

"Little Ji Xuan?"

After patting her head gently, Xuan Feng suddenly looked up, looked around, and then looked at Zhang Ruyi with a blank face.

She had just dreamed that she had become as charming and beautiful as before, and was trying hard to include Ye Lingtian in her dream when she was awakened by Zhang Ruyi.

What divine phoenix? Are there any other phoenixes in the world besides her?

"what?"

----

"Master, you came here for the elixir of the God of Alchemy. If you waste money like this now, I'm afraid that later..."

"Can't you just ask my father and the others to send me some more?"

Xuan Yan was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, eating spiritual fruit, looking very happy.

"I am thinking about you, young master. You should grow up, be sensible, and think twice before doing anything..."

"I have already achieved Nascent Soul at the age of thirty, and even became a fifth-rank alchemist, which is something that others may not be able to achieve even after a hundred years of cultivation. How can I not have grown up?"
