#2779 - Return to Xianbao Tower

Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli left the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.

They weren't in a hurry to register for the selection.

There were still two or three days left, no need to rush.

“My Lord, are we going to the market?”

Mo Qingli knew that Jun Wuxie wouldn't choose to go out unless there was something important.

Now, Jun Wuxie possessed special resources, and he wasn't spending his time on cultivation, so he must be preparing for the auction of rare resources at the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

“That’s right, today we’ll sell some Celestial Origin Immortal Jade to exchange for some Heavenly Dao Coins.”

Mo Qingli sighed softly upon hearing this, “I never thought there would come a day when we would be troubled by money.

Unfortunately, when I was being hunted down, my injuries were too severe, and I exhausted all the resources I was carrying.

Otherwise, with high-grade resources on hand, selling just a little to the Immortal Treasure Pavilion would be enough to exchange for a sum of money.

The resources Jun Wuxie needs are too special and valuable.

To obtain them from the market, we have to participate in auctions every time.

If this continues, the required funds will be astronomical.

If we only rely on completing tasks to earn rewards, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sustain such massive expenses.

In the short term, there is nowhere to go for training, and there is no hope of obtaining rare resources through chance…

These past few days, Mo Qingli had often been thinking about this problem.

How can we solve the funding gap?

If we only use the method of completing tasks, it simply won't be enough to cover the expenses.

Unless we no longer hide our strength and continuously take on tasks with a difficulty of five stars or higher.

That way, although it wouldn't completely cover the consumption of funds, it would at least be much better.

However, she and Jun Wuxie couldn't do that.

Why did they join the Jinyun Immortal Sect?

The purpose was to use their identities as disciples of the Jinyun Immortal Sect to help conceal their true identities and avoid a lot of trouble.

If only we could contact the old subordinates from the past…

Perhaps they scattered and fled back then, living in anonymity, scattered throughout the Primordial Chaos, and each formed their own forces, it's hard to say.

If that were the case, they would definitely have some financial resources.

It's a pity that we can't contact the old subordinates now.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, no one knows where they fled to back then, where they are hiding.

How could she, who fled to the God Ancient, know.

Perhaps many of the old subordinates are no longer in this ancient land of life, but have gone to the starry sky, hiding in other places of life.

There is also one point, and that is that many things are different from what they were back then after tens of thousands of years.

People who could be trusted back then cannot be guaranteed to be trusted now.

Whether they still regard her as their Sect Master is also another matter.

Moreover, the current her is no longer the Qingli Immortal Venerable of the Origin Realm back then, but just a small cultivator in the Changsheng Realm.

Even if they were contacted, it's possible that not only would they not obtain financial support, but they would also put themselves and Jun Wuxie in danger, attracting more trouble.

“Qingli, what are you thinking about?”

After leaving the sect, Jun Wuxie suddenly stopped and turned to look at her.

Mo Qingli had something on her mind, and she didn't expect Jun Wuxie to stop suddenly, almost bumping into him.

“Ah, it’s nothing.”

Mo Qingli came back to her senses, her expression calm as usual.

“You were walking absentmindedly, almost bumping into me, and you still say it’s nothing?”

How could Jun Wuxie not understand her?

From the moment they left the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, he had sensed that Mo Qingli had something on her mind.

With a little guess, he could guess what she was thinking.

“Are you thinking about the funding issue again?”

“No.”

Mo Qingli's expression was as usual, still cold and indifferent, as if saying, 'keep away'.

“When did you, Mo Qingli, learn to say one thing and mean another in front of me?

This doesn't seem like your style.

Even if you don't say it, I know what you're thinking.

I'm telling you now, there's absolutely no need for you to worry about the funding issue, let alone fret over it.

I have my own way to solve it.”

“What solution does My Lord have?

Selling Celestial Origin Immortal Jade?

But that's not a long-term solution.

The amount of Celestial Origin Immortal Jade you have is limited.

Although you can return to the God Ancient at any time to retrieve Celestial Origin Immortal Jade.

However, selling Celestial Origin Immortal Jade is completely uneconomical.

As your cultivation level increases, the grade of resources you need in the future will also increase, and the price will also skyrocket.

My Lord can't possibly sell all the Celestial Origin Immortal Jade to the Immortal Treasure Pavilion to exchange for funds, right?”

“Selling Celestial Origin Immortal Jade is certainly not a long-term solution.

I only plan to sell it this one time, and I'll have other ways to make money in the future.”

“But, if My Lord had other ways to make money, you wouldn't have gone with me to take on tasks to earn Heavenly Dao Coins the past two days.”

“Heh, you woman, are you trying to argue with me?”

Jun Wuxie reached out and flicked Mo Qingli's fair and smooth forehead, “Having been by my side for so long, do you know what the most important thing is?”

“Qingli knows, it's to be obedient.

My Lord likes obedient people, whether they are men or women.

Qingli is not being disobedient, I just want to solve the problem of funding shortage.

I want to restore my cultivation level as soon as possible, and if I can restore it to the Creation Realm, I can take on tasks with a difficulty of six stars or higher, and earn more rewards.

At that time, as long as My Lord's frequency of auctioning rare resources is not so frequent, I think I should be able to barely keep up.”

“Did you even listen to what I said?

I said, I have my own way to make money.

How can mere money stump me?

You're a woman following me, and you're going to earn money to provide funds for me to auction resources? What face would I, Jun Wuxie, have to be the Lord of the Three Realms.”

“Didn't My Lord say that being a kept man is both soft and fragrant?

Why is My Lord going back on your word?

Besides, Qingli is willing to support you.

It's Qingli's duty to share My Lord's worries.”

“Are you taking the jokes I made with Protector Zhou seriously?

I was going to say, how could your emotional intelligence be…

Jun Wuxie originally wanted to say that her emotional intelligence was low.

But when he thought about it, she had basically severed her seven emotions, so it seemed normal for her emotional intelligence to be low?

“Do you still want to continue following me?”

Upon hearing this, Mo Qingli's body couldn't help but tremble, “My Lord, do you find Qingli annoying?”

Jun Wuxie didn't respond to her question, but only said, “If you want to continue following me, then be obedient.

You don't need to worry about things that I said I can solve.

Why bother yourself with things and mentally exhaust yourself.

Can you do that?”

“I… can.”

Mo Qingli hesitated, but finally agreed.

She didn't know why, but she felt a little flustered at the thought of being kicked out.

In this life, she had never been so close to any man.

Jun Wuxie was the man she accepted from the bottom of her heart and was willing to get close to, the only person she admired in her heart.

Her admiration for him had been deeply imprinted in her heart.

Besides admiration, there was also indebtedness and gratitude.

She sometimes wondered if she shouldn't have cultivated the Supreme Emotionless Record, which required severing the seven emotions, and shouldn't have developed such emotions.

But the fact was that these emotions had already grown in her heart.

Severing the seven emotions, she didn't seem to have done it.

These emotions, whether it was admiration or gratitude, all belonged to the seven emotions.

When she first became aware of the changes in her state of mind, she had a period of resistance, a period of confusion, worried that it would affect her path.

She slowly discovered that the Supreme Emotionless Record she cultivated didn't go wrong because of this, and there were no signs of inner demons growing because of this.

So, she no longer resisted.

Later, she heard Jun Wuxie say that following her heart, going with the flow, she would see different scenery.

She dispelled the last of her worries and no longer confronted the emotions in the depths of her heart.

It's just that sometimes there are still subconscious conditioned reflexes.

For example, the first time in her life she tasted the sugar figurine of the mortal world, but threw the sugar figurine on the ground that time.

“Let’s go.”

Jun Wuxie walked away.

Mo Qingli followed quietly, although she was curious about what way Jun Wuxie had come up with to make money, which could solve the future funding gap.

But she still refrained from asking.

The entire process of their previous communication was through divine sense, so they didn't have to worry about the content of their conversation being overheard by people lurking within a certain range to monitor them.

In the distance, somewhere, two pairs of eyes hidden in the dark watched their gradually receding figures, a cold light flashing in their eyes.

“This Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian are indeed cautious, usually speaking, they actually communicate through divine sense.

I don't even know what they suddenly stopped and stood there to say just now.”

“Do you think they might have discovered us?”

“Impossible! Separated by such a long distance, with the soul strength that their realm can reach, their divine sense is far from enough to detect our existence!

I think it may be the matter of our family's retainer last time that made them wary, suspecting that they might be targeted after leaving the sect, so they used divine sense to talk this time.

But so what?

We only need to grasp their whereabouts.

Anyway, we won't attack them for the time being, and we can't find a good opportunity, just monitoring them.

The training in a few months will be their path to despair.

At that time, perhaps we won't even need to take action ourselves, and their lives will be in danger.

Whether it's the Xuan Yuan Immortal Sect or the Thunder Extreme Immortal Palace, or the Fallen Immortal Dao Earth, which of the inner disciples of the three top Dao lineages are vegetarians?

This trip is inherently competitive, and once there is an opportunity, people from the three top Dao lineages will most likely kill to eliminate competitors.”

“Hmph, I hope they can break through with serious injuries, and then die at the hands of our people, so that we can vent the hatred in our hearts!

"Just two rogue cultivators daring to trample the dignity of my Yi family's direct line, even killing my Yi family's retainers! Utterly audacious and arrogant! This is slapping the face of our Yi family, a shameful disgrace!"

"Hmm? Looking at them, it seems they're heading to the Immortal Treasure Pavilion again?

They left in disgrace last time, still not giving up, haven't learned their lesson, and they're back?

Judging by their poor appearance, even if they've completed a few low-level tasks, the two of them probably only have a few thousand Heavenly Dao coins combined.

A place like the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, how could people from such poor rogue cultivator backgrounds come here?

They're really lowering the grade of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, tainting it with a sense of poverty."

The two people secretly tracking and monitoring from the Yi family held deep prejudices against Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli. Seeing them enter the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, their subconscious drove them to disparage them with words, seeking psychological satisfaction.

… …

At this moment, Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli had already walked into the hall of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

The Immortal Treasure Pavilion's business was extremely booming.

The title of the number one market in the Imperial City wasn't just for show; it was recognized by everyone.

Moreover, the Immortal Treasure Pavilion wasn't just number one in the Nine Dragons Dynasty; it was the strongest and most mysterious in the entire Hunyuan Great World.

A saying circulated in the world:

"Only what you can't imagine, there's nothing the Immortal Treasure Pavilion can't do."

Meaning that the Immortal Treasure Pavilion had all kinds of rare immortal treasures.

As long as you could afford the price, you could get all kinds of treasures.

Of course, this was the world's admiration and praise for the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

In fact, the Immortal Treasure Pavilion wasn't omnipotent in the sale of immortal treasures.

There were many rare things in the world, and the Immortal Treasure Pavilion didn't have them all.

Perhaps for the vast majority of cultivators, anything they sought could be bought from the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

But for Jun Wuxie, it wasn't the case.

What he needed were all rare, even peerless resources.

Those things were hard to find even in thousands of years in previous eras.

It was only because this era was special, with various resources and opportunities erupting in concentration, that the Immortal Treasure Pavilion had those kinds of resources for sale.

Inside the hall, the area was very wide. It wasn't just as big as it looked from the outside; it contained spatial Dao patterns inside, which expanded the space many times over.

There were too many people in the hall of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion who came to buy resources.

With every breath, many people went in and out of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli didn't walk towards the resource sales area.

After entering, they looked around and then walked towards the service desk on the side of the hall.

Inside the hall, there was a service desk on each side.

The tables at the service desks were very long, probably a hundred meters, with hundreds of people standing inside, each with a professional smile on their face.

"Hello, young master, young lady, is there anything I can help you with?"

When they walked to the service desk, a beautiful, slender woman directly opposite them asked with a smile.

"Hello, does your Immortal Treasure Pavilion purchase immortal treasures?"

"Of course, our Immortal Treasure Pavilion purchases immortal treasures of rank one and above. We don't purchase anything below the immortal level. Please be aware of this, young master and young lady.

If young master and young lady have immortal treasures for sale, you can go directly to that area."

The woman pointed to a corner of the hall.

Although it was called a corner, it was actually quite spacious, covering a large area.

"That is the designated area for our Immortal Treasure Pavilion to purchase immortal treasures.

You only need to go to the designated area to sell them."

Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli glanced at that area.

They had naturally seen it long ago, after all, there was a sign there, with several large characters clearly written—Immortal Treasure Purchase Area.

So, he asked just now whether they purchased immortal treasures, which was actually asking a question he already knew the answer to.

He didn't want to sell directly at the counter, after all, there were many people, and they were currently in the appearance of Jin Yun Immortal Sect's Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian.

If it were other special resources, that would be fine.

But they were selling Heavenly Source Immortal Peridot.

Once this kind of thing appeared, if someone who knew certain information about him found out, it might easily lead to associations with the Divine Ancient.

After all, this wasn't the pawnshop in White Sand Ancient Town.

White Sand Ancient Town was relatively remote, the flow of people couldn't compare with this place, and there were fewer people in the pawnshop.

When he went to the pawnshop at that time, he waited until no one was in the pawnshop hall before taking it out.

Here was different, not only were there many people, but people's knowledge would be broader.

It might spread out and reach the ears of certain people, such as the people of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Sect, or the lackeys lurking in the Hunyuan Great World under the Dark Creatures.

"I'm saying, if we sell special resources, can we only sell them there?"

The woman was slightly stunned and smiled: "Young master, our Immortal Treasure Pavilion can indeed conduct one-on-one individual purchases, but there are prerequisites.

The first prerequisite is that the special resources you want to sell must be of immortal rank two or above, and the rarity cannot be too low. They must barely make it onto the auction block, even as an accompanying gift at the auction, they must pass that threshold and have that qualification.

The second prerequisite is that the quantity of special resources you sell cannot be too small.

If young master has this confidence, I will report it, and someone will come to contact you and the young lady later.

However, please consider it carefully, young master and young lady.

If our Immortal Treasure Pavilion discovers that you two are deceiving us, you will have to pay the price.

Now, we have informed young master and young lady of the rules of our Immortal Treasure Pavilion.

May I ask if the two of you still insist on one-on-one sales?"

The woman always maintained a professional smile while speaking, and her tone was very gentle. Even when she said the warning words, it was the same.

"Of course, we choose one-on-one sales.

If the conditions are not met, you can handle it as you see fit."

Jun Wuxie gave a definite answer.

He didn't know what the standard of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion's prerequisite one was.

What kind of rarity could reach the Immortal Treasure Pavilion's standard of barely making it onto the auction block?

He didn't know, he didn't understand.

But he believed that the flawless quality Heavenly Source Immortal Peridot should meet the standard.

You should know that the flawless quality Heavenly Source Immortal Peridot can increase a cultivator's cultivation speed by more than ten times.

This kind of resource is not only rare but also special, belonging to the special category of rare resources.
