Jinyu Tower, 100,000 medium-grade Yuanshi

Whoosh!

The wind howled, whistling sharply in Xiao Ming's ears.

Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Ming flew at an extremely fast speed on his sword.

As he traveled between heaven and earth on his sword, Xiao Ming took out a set of clean and tidy clothes from his ink void ring and put them on.

At the same time, he also reined in his supernatural abilities, retracting all the five-element spiritual light and sacred patterns on his body back inside.

This way, he would not be so conspicuous.

After finishing these small tasks, Xiao Ming began to consider his next itinerary.

He did not plan to return to the sect immediately but wanted to go to Qingfeng City.

This time, after annihilating the Lei Family Fortress, Xiao Ming obtained a large number of cultivation resources, but these resources were uneven in quality, and only a very small number of pills and spirit herbs were useful to Xiao Ming.

The remaining items, if handed over to the sect, would not earn him many points.

It would be better to go to Qingfeng City and sell them.

In Qingfeng City, there was a mercantile association called Golden Jade Tower, which was a branch of a major power stationed in Qingfeng City.

Golden Jade Tower was well-known far and wide, and its prices were fair, treating everyone equally. More importantly, Golden Jade Tower was an outsider and not under the jurisdiction of the City Lord's Mansion.

This was good news for Xiao Ming.

After all, the Spirit Sword Sect, where he belonged, and the City Lord's Mansion did not see eye to eye and even had many conflicts. If he could reduce trouble, that would naturally be the best.

After making his decision, Xiao Ming changed direction and sped towards Qingfeng City.

Approximately half an hour later.

Xiao Ming arrived in Qingfeng City.

Although it was nighttime, Qingfeng City was even more bustling. Looking around, the streets were brightly lit, people were flowing, and various businesses were thriving.

Xiao Ming's goal was clear, and he arrived at Golden Jade Tower as quickly as possible.

As soon as he entered the main door, a waiter enthusiastically walked over.

"Young master, what would you like to buy?" The waiter confidently patted his chest and said, "Our Golden Jade Tower has everything. As long as you are willing to spend money, we can help you get anything!"

This statement contained an element of exaggeration.

Golden Jade Tower was just a branch of a major power, and the Xianwu Continent was so vast; how could a small Golden Jade Tower possibly acquire all rare items?

However, Xiao Ming was too lazy to argue with him and said, "I came to your Golden Jade Tower not to buy things."

"Ah?" The waiter was stunned.

"I'm here to sell things."

Xiao Ming added.

"Selling things is also fine, young master. What do you want to sell?"

Xiao Ming looked at the waiter, shook his head slightly, and said, "I have a lot of things to sell, and their value is not small. You, as a mere waiter, probably don't have the qualifications to receive them."

"Go and find your shopkeeper; I want to talk to him."

Upon hearing this, the waiter was not angry but pleased!

He didn't care about Xiao Ming's disdain for him; instead, he was very happy.

Xiao Ming was a customer he served. If the items sold were numerous and valuable, his commission would be higher!

"Young master, please wait patiently here. I'll go find the shopkeeper now!"

After throwing out a sentence, the waiter hurried away.

Not long after.

A middle-aged man with a full beard was brought over by the waiter.

"I am the shopkeeper of Golden Jade Tower. May I ask, young master, what do you wish to sell?" The middle-aged man said with a chuckle.

Xiao Ming did not speak.

Instead, he pulled out a long saber shimmering with lightning from his ink void ring.

Thundercloud Saber!

This was the Lei Family Fortress's most powerful lightning-attribute saber, and its quality reached the Earth Tier!

The moment he saw the Thundercloud Saber, the middle-aged man was stunned, then showed a surprised expression.

"This is... the Lei Family Fortress's clan-protecting saber, the Thundercloud Saber?" The middle-aged man asked in surprise, "How did the Thundercloud Saber end up in your hands?"

After saying that.

He secretly glanced at the ink void ring on Xiao Ming's hand.

The Lei Family Fortress's clan-protecting long saber, the Thundercloud Saber... a very rare space-type storage ring... At this moment, Xiao Ming's status in the middle-aged man's heart suddenly rose.

And Xiao Ming was also a little surprised.

"You recognized the Lei family's Thundercloud Saber at a glance? Such keen eyesight, truly worthy of being the shopkeeper of Golden Jade Tower!"

The middle-aged man chuckled and explained, "My Golden Jade Tower opens its doors wide and welcomes guests from all directions, so it naturally needs to understand countless precious items."

"To be honest, young master, my Golden Jade Tower's information-gathering ability far surpasses that of ordinary sects."

Xiao Ming waved his hand and said, "Enough small talk. I just want to ask you, will you buy this Thundercloud Saber?"

"Buy! Of course, we'll buy it!" The middle-aged man puffed out his chest and said, "My Golden Jade Tower doesn't care about the origin of an item. As long as the price is right, we'll trade!"

"Take this Thundercloud Saber, for example. Whether you stole it or snatched it, once the transaction is complete, it belongs to my Golden Jade Tower."

"However, this is not the place to talk. How about we go to a private room?"

Xiao Ming nodded and said, "Let's go. You lead the way."

Not long after.

Xiao Ming followed the middle-aged shopkeeper to a quiet private room. After the shopkeeper closed the door, Xiao Ming opened his ink void ring.

Clatter!

A large pile of various items poured out from the ink void ring, instantly filling more than half of the room.

Among these items were weapons, cultivation techniques, martial arts, and many pills, as well as relatively common spirit grasses and spirit herbs.

The shopkeeper was stunned, then stepped forward and began to inspect them.

Subsequently.

He fell into wave after wave of shock.

"Two Profound-tier weapons, a huge pile of Yellow-tier weapons... Wait, is this the Furious Thunder Electric Control Art? Isn't this the Lei Family Fortress's clan-protecting cultivation technique?"

"Thunderbolt Slash, Lightning Blast, Electric Light Thunder Control Slash... Hiss, these are all unique lightning-attribute martial arts of the Lei Family Fortress, aren't they?"

"And so many pills, spirit grasses, and spirit herbs..."

By the end, the shopkeeper's voice grew weaker and weaker, and the shock in his eyes grew more intense.

He struggled to look up, swallowed, and said, "Young friend, you didn't empty out the entire Lei Family Fortress, did you?"

Xiao Ming smiled without speaking.

Seeing Xiao Ming's attitude, the shopkeeper was quite tactful and didn't ask further.

He squatted on the ground, carefully examined everything, then stood up and said, "Young friend, the items you provided are very valuable!"

"How valuable?"

"As high as three or four stories," the shopkeeper was very satisfied with this and said, "Young friend, how many Yuan Stones do you plan to sell them for?"

Xiao Ming held up one finger.

He said lightly, "I want one hundred thousand mid-grade Yuan Stones!"

"One hundred thousand? And mid-grade Yuan Stones? The price is too high," the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "I can only give you eighty thousand at most."

"One hundred and ten thousand!" Xiao Ming immediately raised the price.

"I'll give you ninety thousand..."

"One hundred and twenty thousand!" Xiao Ming continued to raise the price.

"No, no, no, one hundred thousand is fine, please don't raise the price anymore, I'm scared..." The shopkeeper finally gave in and quickly waved his hands.

"Alright then, one hundred thousand mid-grade Yuan Stones," Xiao Ming smiled faintly and said, "Don't feel wronged either. You should know that this is the wealth accumulated by the Lei Family Fortress over several centuries. Giving me one hundred thousand, you're not losing out!"

"The wealth accumulated by the Lei Family Fortress over several centuries..." The shopkeeper chewed on this sentence, and his gaze towards Xiao Ming was filled with complex emotions.

"Young man, you also know this is the Lei Family Fortress's foundation of several centuries, yet you've moved all this wealth over."

"If the people of the Lei Family Fortress were to find out, they would probably all go mad..." The shopkeeper thought to himself, the complex expression on his face deepening a few shades.
