Chapter 284: Chapter 283: Treasure Court"How is it you guys again?" After the incident at Cloud Heaven Pavilion, Jiang Yunqi had been in quite a bad mood. He followed Yun Chen and others to the Treasure Court to take a walk and broaden his horizons. To his surprise, upon arriving at the Treasure Court, he ran into Ye Xuan once more! This caused Jiang Yunqi’s complexion to look quite unsightly. Yun Chen and Yun Tong, among others, had also noticed Ye Xuan and his group. Yun Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. Upon seeing Jiang Yunqi and the others, Ye Xuan replied with a nonchalant smile, "No wonder there was a stench from afar, turns out there are a few smelly dogs here." "Ye Xuan, how dare you insult us?!" Jiang Yunqi’s face instantly turned gloomy. "It seems you do realize that you are indeed smelly dogs," Ye Xuan said, shaking his head with a wry smile. "You!" Jiang Yunqi was so angry that he couldn’t help but turn to Yun Chen and said in a low voice, "Yun Chen, look at this guy, isn’t he too arrogant?" "Brother Yun Chen, are these people your acquaintances?" A distinguished-looking young man in a purple robe laughed and asked. This youth in purple robe, with eyes like stars and a faint purple aura lingering around him, was like an emperor in his own right. "The Holy Son of Canghai Sect, Hua Qiuchen." The cultivators around couldn’t help but take a sharp breath when they saw this purple-robed youth. Canghai Sect was also a colossal presence in the Southern Domain, no less powerful than Heavens Cloud Divine Sect, perhaps even surpassing it. And that purple-robed youth was none other than the Holy Son of Canghai Sect, Hua Qiuchen. Of course, Hua Qiuchen wouldn’t want to miss the opening of the Southern Ghost Tomb. In fact, the cultivators who could come to this Treasure Court were either dominant figures, or geniuses, or had astonishing backing. One could say that none of the persons present in the Treasure Court came from a simple background. Many young disciples were also following their family elders here, taking the opportunity to socialize with their peers. Hua Qiuchen happened to have a good relationship with Yun Chen. When he saw Jiang Yunqi ’greeting’ Ye Xuan and the others, Hua Qiuchen couldn’t help but interject. But his gaze stayed on Zhou Youwei. ’What a beauty, truly a fairy with a city-overturning appearance. Could she be a Fairy from Yuzhu Sacred Mountain?’ Hua Qiuchen mused inwardly. "Not acquainted," Yun Chen replied indifferently, not even bothering to spare Ye Xuan a glance. "They are disciples from Emperor Immortal Sect located in the Azure Mountain Range," it was Yun Tong who, with a smile on her lips, spoke softly. "Oh? Emperor Immortal Sect?" Hua Qiuchen was suddenly surprised and sized up Zhou Youwei once more, then suddenly smiled and said, "Then, this Fairy must be the Goddess Zhou Youwei from the Emperor Immortal Sect, one of the three great Goddesses of the Southern Domain, the Mystic Ice Goddess?" As he spoke, Hua Qiuchen gave Zhou Youwei a slight bow and said, "I am Hua Qiuchen from Canghai Sect, greetings to the Fairy." Zhou Youwei, not fond of speaking to strangers, nodded slightly in acknowledgment without saying a word. Zhou Bingyi, however, who followed close behind Ye Xuan, tugged quietly at Ye Xuan’s sleeve and whispered, "Brother-in-law, this guy seems to have a bit of Zhao Yulong’s touch." Ye Xuan couldn’t help but chuckle silently. This little girl was quick to learn, even remembering Zhao Yulong’s tactics. "Let’s go, before we get too close to the smelly dogs and get overwhelmed by the stench." Ye Xuan started to walk away, not bothering to say much more to them. Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Youwei both followed behind Ye Xuan, with Elder He silently tagging along. "Yun Chen, aren’t you going to deal with them?" Seeing Ye Xuan walking away, Jiang Yunqi asked with an ugly expression. Yun Chen glanced at Jiang Yunqi disdainfully and said lightly, "In this Treasure Court, even if my father came here, he wouldn’t be allowed to fight. If you aren’t afraid of death, you can go ahead and try." Hua Qiuchen also gave Jiang Yunqi an odd look. This guy sure knew how to joke. Trying to cause trouble within the Treasure Pavilion? Wasn’t that just seeking death? The Treasure Court was established by a powerful figure from the Southern Domain, made for the great powers of the Southern Domain to exchange treasures, with a strict prohibition on fighting. Violators would be killed on the spot! A Sect Master from a first-rate power once acted arrogantly due to his mighty strength, engaging in buying and selling by force and injuring others, and was directly executed on the spot. This served as evidence of just how stringent the rules of the Treasure Pavilion were. It’s not just Yun Chen; even his father, the Sect Master of Heavens Cloud Divine Sect, would absolutely not dare to act recklessly here. That’s because the background of the figure who established the Treasure Court was frighteningly powerful, so much so that even the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect wouldn’t dare to be arrogant. Jiang Yunqi, sensing the strange looks from those around him, felt incredibly embarrassed and wished he could crawl into a crevice and hide. He had not known about these matters at all. This was his first time at the Treasure Court, and no one had informed him... Jiang Yunqi watched the direction in which Ye Xuan had left, a malicious resentment surfacing in the depths of his eyes. It was all because of that bastard Ye Xuan. If it weren’t for him, how could he have made such a fool of himself? Yet, Jiang Yunqi seemed to have completely forgotten that it had been he who was making a scene from the start to the end. Speaking of Ye Xuan. After voluntarily leaving, he began to tour around the Treasure Court. Compared to Treasure Street, the Treasure Court was much quieter, because there were not as many visitors. It was like an ancient courtyard, where everything was at peace with each other. Many powerful cultivators placed their treasures on the ground, next to which stood a flag that listed the treasures they sought, indicating what they were willing to exchange. For Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Youwei, it was truly an eye-opening experience. Both were visiting such a treasure court for the first time and found it quite novel. Ye Xuan, however, strolled leisurely by many treasures without stopping. Those treasures were not fake. But there were only a few that could catch Ye Xuan’s attention. "Only exchanging for Foundation Establishment Pill, Body Refining Pill, Soul Cleansing Pill." At this time, a group of four people arrived at a small stall. The flag next to the stall was inscribed with those words. That was an old man in a black cloak and hat, sitting cross-legged on the ground, his head drooping as if he were dozing off. Next to the old man was a thin little boy, about seven or eight years old. And it seemed that this boy was blind, his eyes devoid of spirit as he sat there in a daze. In front of him were three objects displayed: an ancient book, a black spiritual pearl, and a divine bow. "Eh?" Upon seeing the stall, Zhou Youwei felt slightly surprised. Foundation Establishment Pill, Body Refining Pill, Soul Cleansing Pill? Weren’t these the very elixirs that Emperor Immortal Sect had been consistently crafting? However, the actual names of these three pills were not widely publicized by the Emperor Immortal Sect, only known to a handful of people. Zhou Youwei happened to be in the know. Now, what the Emperor Immortal Sect had in abundance were these three elixirs. Ye Xuan squatted down in front of the stall, his gaze landing on the ancient book. The book’s cover bore no words, and its purpose was a mystery. "If you can’t come up with these three pills, scram early," the old man barely lifted his head, then let it droop again, speaking dismissively and with impatience. These three pills had been lost to time, and even the East Desolation Medicine Pavilion couldn’t produce them. The old man naturally didn’t believe these young individuals could come up with them. "Hey! You old man!" Zhou Bingyi was instantly indignant. However, Zhou Youwei stopped Zhou Bingyi. Ye Xuan ignored the old man’s words and kept his eyes fixed on the ancient book. "Heavenly Spirit Book..." After a moment, Ye Xuan looked up, not at the old man, but at the thin boy and said calmly, "Just these three pills won’t be enough." "What?" The old man lifted his head to look at Ye Xuan, appearing somewhat puzzled. Then, everyone could finally see the old man’s face. Zhou Bingyi was so startled that she stepped back two paces, her face turning pale. The man in the black robe had no skin on his face, but muscle turned inside out, looking incredibly ghastly. At that moment, the old man was looking at Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan shifted his gaze from the thin boy back to the old man and said, "Haunted by evil spirits, it’s not something that can be escaped through washing the meridians and marrow." The old man’s pupils constricted slightly as he stared intently at Ye Xuan. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. After a long moment, the old man spoke in a low voice, "Do you have a way?" "It’s a small matter," Ye Xuan said with a light smile, waving over the thin boy. The boy, whose eyes had previously been lifeless, now looked towards Ye Xuan. "Hm?" The old man was immediately taken aback, his eyes emitting two sharp beams. This guy... The old man stared deeply at Ye Xuan. For many years now, his grandson had always been like this, never coming to his senses. Ye Xuan merely waved his hand and could make his grandson come to his senses?! Boom! At that moment, the thin boy actually stood up. And as he did, behind him appeared an immense, nearly thousand-feet-tall terrifying specter, emanating waves of evil spirit’s power, feeling as cold as falling into an ice cellar. The surrounding cultivators all felt an inexplicable chill, turning their attention towards the boy. However, to their eyes, there was nothing to be seen. That specter appeared to not exist at all. "Young friend, this evil spirit harms people, be careful," the old man warned in a grave tone.
