188: Chapter 188 Wanbao Pavilion

Just a few days later, the clansmen of the Chen Family gathered some news.

" Seventh Uncle, currently the Tier 3 Magical Artifacts in the major shops of Taihe Prefecture have already been bought up by people, and there haven't been any recent auctions. However, Wanbao Pavilion in Cang Prefecture City might have them, but their selling prices are generally ten to twenty percent more expensive than other shops. " Chen Linglong said respectfully with a pleasantly surprised expression.

Chen Linglong was ranked eleventh in the Ling generation, possessed Four Spiritual Roots, and was considered a fairly conventional clansman within the Ling generation, usually belonging to a member of the Family caravan.

Logically, it should have been handled by the caravan leader Chen Changhong, but during this period of time, Chen Changhong was not at Wuyue Mountain, so he had no choice but to dispatch Chen Linglong to report.

" I know, you may withdraw first! " Chen Changqing nodded, waving his hand casually as a First-rank High Grade Magical Artifact flew out and landed in front of Chen Linglong.

Chen Linglong was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly received it: " Thank you for the reward, Ninth Uncle. "

Chen Changqing waved his hand; although Chen Linglong was not particularly outstanding within the Family, his contributions to the Family over the years could not be said to be small, so he was not stingy about bestowing rewards upon Chen Linglong.

This perhaps was also the reason why Changhong handed this errand to him.

After he left, Chen Changqing fell into deep contemplation.

Wanbao Pavilion of Cang Prefecture?

...

A few days later, Chen Changqing arrived outside Cang Prefecture City.

Unlike the past, today's Cang Prefecture City lacked a trace of liveliness and possessed an extra bit of desolation.

This was also very normal; right now the outside world was so chaotic, with remnants of the Anti-Immortal Alliance appearing in Cang Prefecture, the Ghost Abyss of Ying Province manifesting, and to the north of Yan Country, several neighboring countries also eyeing covetously, ready to move south and launch a major war at any moment.

After passing through the inspection of the Cultivators outside the city, he then slowly walked inside.

A Qi Refining Cultivator saw Chen Changqing, and immediately his eyes lit up as he walked over.

" Senior, does Senior need Junior to lead the way? Junior has lived in Cang Prefecture City for over ten years and is very familiar with every blade of grass and tree inside Cang Prefecture City. "

" Whether you want to find a secluded Immortal Cave to Cultivate, or acquire some treasure Materials, Junior knows all the ropes, and it only costs five Spirit Stones a day. "

Chen Changqing glanced at the other party. He had visited Cang Prefecture City relatively few times, and every time he passed by, he left in a hurry, so he indeed did not know the situation of Cang Prefecture City. Furthermore, releasing Divine Sense to probe randomly was not allowed here, otherwise it would attract the attention of the Purple Mansion Masters in the city.

" Since that is the case, little friend, do you know where Wanbao Pavilion is? " As Chen Changqing spoke, he casually waved his hand, and ten Spirit Stones floated in front of the Loose Cultivator.

" I know, I know. Senior, please follow me. Junior is Ma Jiu. " Ma Jiu said respectfully.

Chen Changqing stopped talking and simply followed him step by step toward Wanbao Pavilion.

Along the way, he introduced many things to Chen Changqing. One had to admit that although Ma Jiu was covered in pockmarks and his voice was a bit rough, he was meticulous in his conduct, speaking when he should speak and not speaking when he shouldn't.

As expected of a Loose Cultivator who could Cultivate to the Late Qi Refining Stage, one couldn't achieve this without some tact.

After a short while, guided by Ma Jiu, Chen Changqing arrived at Wanbao Pavilion.

" Senior, this Wanbao Pavilion is renowned as the place with the most treasures in the entire Cang Prefecture. Inside, it not only caters to Qi Refining Cultivators, but also Foundation Establishment Cultivators like you, Senior. Moreover, even treasures of mighty figures like Purple Mansion Masters can be brought out. " Ma Jiu became more and more excited as he spoke.

Chen Changqing ignored him and simply walked into Wanbao Pavilion on his own accord.

He suppressed his own cultivation to the fourth layer of Foundation Establishment and had used disguise. As long as it wasn't a Golden Core Master, absolutely no one could recognize him.

As soon as he entered, a woman in a purple ru skirt with a pretty face immediately came forward to greet him.

" This Senior, what kind of treasure are you here to purchase? This shop dares not say it has everything, but it definitely possesses treasures that almost all other shops in this Cang Prefecture do not have. "

The tone of the woman in the purple skirt was very arrogant, even if the other party was merely at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, and even when facing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Yet her tone was also filled with respect, giving a somewhat contradictory feeling.

" This humble one will take a look first. " Chen Changqing nodded.

" Mhm, then please move to the third floor, Senior. The first and second floors sell First-rank treasures, while the third and fourth floors are treasures of the Foundation Establishment Stage. " The woman in the purple skirt gestured and invited.

Chen Changqing followed up, and Ma Jiu followed closely behind Chen Changqing.

On the third floor, accompanied by Ma Jiu and the woman in the purple skirt, Chen Changqing browsed for a full hour.

During this period, besides purchasing quite a number of Tier 2 Medicinal Pills, as well as some Tier 2 Formations and Magical Artifacts, there were also a few Pill Formulas.

These alone cost him close to tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.

Such lavish spending made the two people present incomparably shocked.

For a moment, the tone of the woman in the purple skirt was even softer than before. After all, the transactions she was usually responsible for mostly ranged from dozens to hundreds of Spirit Stones, and occasionally reached a thousand. Based on a five percent commission, she would earn a few Spirit Stones on the low end and dozens on the high end.

Yet today's single transaction allowed her to earn thousands! What kind of concept was this?!

If a few more transactions like this came along, she could even exchange for a foundation establishment pill and attempt Foundation Establishment!

" Senior, please take this. " The woman in the purple skirt respectfully handed the Storage Pouch toward Chen Changqing.

" Mhm, take me to the fifth floor. " After taking away the Storage Pouch handed over by the woman in the purple skirt, Chen Changqing said indifferently.

" Hm?!... Senior, what did you just say? " The woman in the purple skirt said in astonishment, thinking she had misheard, and asked once more.

" Take me to the fifth floor. " Chen Changqing stated once again.

This time, the woman in the purple skirt finally heard clearly. But the next moment after hearing clearly, instead of being shocked, she thought that Chen Changqing did not understand the rules here, and Ma Jiu felt the same way.

Ever since a moment ago, his words had been relatively few. As a guide, he knew that now was not the time for him to speak, so naturally he wouldn't say much. No matter how shocked he was by Chen Changqing's lavishness, he would never speak casually.

" Senior, the fifth floor requires a Purple Mansion Master before one can go there. According to our shop's rules, non-Purple Mansion Masters are not allowed to go to the fifth layer. " The woman in the purple skirt hurriedly explained.

" Mhm, I know, please lead the way. " Chen Changqing's tone remained calm.

Seeing Chen Changqing's calm expression, and recalling how he spent tens of thousands of Spirit Stones just now without even blinking an eye, that impossible guess in her heart increasingly felt somewhat credible.

She immediately nodded and led Chen Changqing forward. Ma Jiu couldn't react for a moment, but after hesitating for a while, he followed along.

While the three of them were on their way to the fourth floor, two Cultivators came down from the fourth floor—a man and a woman.

The man was handsome and dashing, looking extraordinary at a glance, while the woman, like the woman in the purple skirt, was also a Cultivator of this shop.

After guessing Chen Changqing's identity, the woman in the purple skirt did not dare to show the slightest slack.

" Young Master Qin, is there any other treasure you need to purchase? This maid will definitely do her utmost to secure the best for you. "

Chen Changqing, who had just stepped onto the floor, raised an eyebrow and paused slightly. Young Master Qin? Could he be someone from Xianyang Valley?

After they left, Chen Changqing looked back. Casting his gaze over, sure enough, on the man's robe was the unique pattern of the Qin Family of Xianyang Valley.

That was a Five-clawed Purple Gold Dragon!!
