Li Yunxiao took the small box from Mo Xiaochuan's hand, and his pupils suddenly shrank. He saw that the thing inside the box was as green as bamboo, and it was as thick as a finger. It was emitting a warm green light, and its spirit energy was oppressive. Li Yunxiao exclaimed, "Such a powerful Yi Wood aura, it's almost at the origin. This item should be a wood elemental treasure. If Sect Master Zhang kept it to cultivate the Lightning Transformation Divine Art, it would be much easier. You're actually willing to part with it? "
Zhang Linghua snorted, "This is the Clear Heart Sandalwood that the Northern Scorpion Sect planted in large quantities. It was planted to cultivate the Lightning Transformation Divine Art. However, after the divine art was lost, the Clear Heart Sandalwood was also cut down, and the method of planting it was also lost. Now, we can only find some in the treasury. The piece in Young Master Yun's hand is one of the few Clear Heart Sandalwood. Although it's not much, with Young Master Yun's knowledge, you should be able to understand its value. "
Li Yunxiao was shocked, and he exclaimed, "Planting this kind of Yi Wood in large quantities? The Northern Scorpion Sect is so powerful. This kind of wood elemental energy, which is close to the origin, may not be comparable to a rank ten existence like the Phoenix Divine Fire, but it is still comparable to a rank nine treasure. Rank nine treasures are all born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and cannot be cultivated. In history, many arcane masters have tried to cultivate it, but all of them ended in failure.
Zhang Linghua seemed to have found a trace of confidence, and he said proudly, "When the Northern Scorpion Sect swept across the continent, even the seven great forces could not catch up. How could you people know?"
Li Yunxiao carefully put away the Clear Heart Sandalwood, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Zhang Linghua, so he said, "I'll take this Yi Wood. When I helped Your Teacher Brother assassinate Elder Feng, and when I gave him the map, we agreed to pay for it. However, Your Teacher Brother only gave a verbal promise, and I haven't seen a single primeval stone. Sect Master Zhang, take out another ten billion middle grade primeval stones, and this puppet is yours. "
Li Yunxiao took out the little person that inherited the Lightning Transformation Divine Art, and it flashed in front of everyone's eyes.
Zhang Linghua's pupils shrank, and her heart beat violently. Being so close to the Thunderization Divine Art, even he couldn't help but feel excited. But when he thought of Li Yunxiao's words, he still angrily said, "Young Master Yun, don't go too far!"
He did not mind giving him the money for the treasure map, but he even asked for the money to assassinate Elder Feng. If he gave it to them, how would the disciples of the sect look at him? Tan Dijun's acquittal and promotion to the position of Vice Sect Leader had already caused a lot of criticism and dissatisfaction.
Mo Xiaochuan coldly snorted and said, "The transaction is voluntary. This Thunder Transformation Divine Art is in Young Master Yun's hands. He can sell it however he wants. If you don't like it, you can choose not to buy it. But please don't waste our time, we still need to teleport to Rain Peak City. "
A sense of helplessness rose in Zhang Linghua's heart. With this strange Emperor Wu here, Li Yunxiao would not be at a disadvantage. Moreover, he noticed that Mo Huayuan was following closely behind Li Yunxiao in the crowd, seemingly following his lead. This made him even more bewildered, "Master Mo, are you leaving Southfire City as well?"
Mo Huayuan nodded, "Yes. I thank Sect Master Zhang for taking care of me all these years. My business in South Fire City is done, and I'm about to return to the Holy Region to report to my master. It just so happens that Young Master Yun is going the same way. "
He paused and said, "Sect Master Zhang, since the Thunderization Divine Art is your sect's treasure, its value is naturally immeasurable. Since Sect Master has even taken out the Ninth Grade Yi Wood, why would you care about a mere ten billion middle grade primeval stones? It's up to Young Master Yun to take these primeval stones, but Sect Master Zhang's Thunderization Divine Art is a must. This … Sect Master Zhang doesn't seem to have much leeway to bargain. "
Mo Huayuan had stayed in South Fire City for many years, and the Bei Dou Sect had treated him like an honored guest and provided him with much help. But when it came to Li Yunxiao, a mysterious young man who saved his big brother's life, he naturally sided with the latter.
Zhang Linghua could also hear the bias in Li Yunxiao's words, and he was even more fearful of Li Yunxiao's identity. He could only give in and say, "Alright, since Master Mo has also said so, if we continue to be entangled over a mere ten billion yuan stones, then I, Zhang Linghua, will seem petty." He snorted coldly and said, "Young Master Yun, I'll do as you wish for Master Mo's sake this time!"
With a wave of his hand, he tossed over a storage pouch filled with primeval stones.
Everyone knew that he was trying to find a way out of this embarrassing situation, but no one dared to mock or ridicule him. They were not qualified to participate in this kind of conversation between experts.
Mo Xiaochuan also received the storage pouch, and after checking to see if there were any problems, he handed it over to Li Yunxiao. Zhang Linghua was fuming with anger.
But after receiving the inheritance of the Thunderization Divine Art, all of his gloominess was swept away. His face was filled with excitement, and he even wanted to laugh out loud.
Ji Lin and the other members of Chamber of Commerce all had gloomy expressions. After Zhang Linghua received the divine art, with the support of the Bei Dou Sect's resources, his strength would soon reach a new level. If there were no strong reinforcements to enter South Fire City, their Chamber of Commerce's power would be suppressed for several hundred years.
"It's getting late. Young Master Yun, everyone, please go. "
Ji Lin was, after all, a wily old fox. Although he was extremely dissatisfied with this deal, he wouldn't show it to Li Yunxiao. He maintained a wholehearted smile, trying to curry favor with him.
Just as everyone was about to step into the formation, Mei Dong 'er suddenly called out from within the Bei Dou Sect. "Young Master Yun, I also want to go to Rain Peak City. Can you take me with you?"
Li Yunxiao was surprised. "Oh? Dong 'er, why are you going to Rain Peak City? You should stay in the Big Dipper Sect and cultivate to a higher realm. "
Mei Dong 'er blushed and was about to explain. He Yingrong also stepped forward and explained on her behalf. "Young Master Yun, Dong 'er's home is in Rain Peak City. She has been away from home for a few years, and she told me about her return this morning. I don't feel at ease leaving her alone, so I wanted to personally escort her. But if I can go with young master Yun, this old lady has nothing to worry about. "
"I see. Then let's go together."
Li Yunxiao readily agreed. Mei Dong 'er happily walked into the formation and stood with everyone else.
Outside the formation, Jin Xuan felt her heart ache. She knew she was jealous and scolded herself in her heart. Silly girl, just what kind of person is young master Yun? It's already fate that we can meet and part ways with each other. What else do you want? Just focus on running your Chamber of Commerce.
Although she comforted herself, she couldn't help but feel disappointed. Her nose even felt a little sour.
"Young Master Yun, this fragrance pouch is for you. Inside is powder ground from a true dragon's saliva, a heavenly treasure, the Sky Thunder Fruit, and more than thirty kinds of spices. Young Master Yun should be able to keep away evil spirits by wearing it. It will be very beneficial for your cultivation. "
Jin Xuan suddenly mustered up the courage to remove the fragrance pouch from her waist. She walked into the formation and handed it over with both hands.
Li Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment. Then, he smiled and grabbed it. "Many thanks. We will meet again in the mountains and rivers. I look forward to seeing you again."
When Jinxuan saw his hand, her cheeks flushed red, and her heart felt slightly better. Hearing him say goodbye, she felt sad again. She tried to hold back her tears and said, "I hope we won't meet for too long. I'm waiting for young master Yun's good news from Song Yueyang City."
Li Yunxiao grabbed the fragrance pouch. A wave of fragrance rippled through the formation. Everybody felt relaxed and happy.
Ji Lin smiled. "I'm sure young master Yun understands President Jin Xuan's good intentions. The great formation is starting to operate. Please come back."
Everyone here was a wily old fox. Of course, they understood Jin Xuan's affection for Li Yunxiao. They just smiled and didn't say anything. Jin Xuan blushed even harder. She hurriedly ran away in shame.
The array slowly operated under Ji Lin's control. Soon, several beams of light shot out from the array and shone into the sky. It was as if the sun was shining brightly. Li Yunxiao and the others gradually became blurry inside the array. Eventually, they disappeared inside the array.
As soon as Li Yunxiao's group left, everybody felt a chill in their hearts. They seemed to feel a gust of cold wind and couldn't help but shiver.
Zhang Linghua's face instantly turned cold. She stared at Ji Lin with a bone-chilling gaze and said gloomily, "President Ji, you talked a lot of nonsense just now!"
Ji Lin gritted his teeth and resisted Zhang Linghua's pressure. He said, "Sect Master Zhang, I was just speaking from the bottom of my heart. Now, you and young master Yun both have what they need. Everyone is happy. Isn't that good? "
"Hmph! Everyone is happy!"
Zhang Linghua withdrew her imposing manner and said faintly, "I'm too lazy to argue with you. How about this? That newly discovered ore vein in the dead land is located in such a dangerous place. Since your strength is limited, you haven't touched it for so many years. Then, my Big Dipper Sect will reluctantly take over and mine it. "
"What?"
Ji Lin was shocked and his face turned ashen. He said angrily, "Sect Master Zhang, aren't you going too far? Let alone our Chamber of Commerce, even the Heavenly Scorpion Sect and the Crescent Sect won't agree."
Zhang Linghua smiled. "You don't need to worry about this, President Ji. I've already discussed it with Li Fengyu and Xiao Minghui. Apart from making a deal with Li Yunxiao, I've also come to Southfire City to inform President Ji. "
Ji Lin and the Chamber of Commerce were indignant, but under Zhang Linghua's imperial aura, they couldn't move.
Zhang Linghua said coldly, "I'm informing you because I think highly of you. The dead land has been designated as my Big Dipper Sect's forbidden land. Anyone who trespasses will be killed without mercy, haha! "
Under Zhang Linghua's lead, the Big Dipper Sect's group turned into a ray of light and left, leaving behind only the sound of laughter in the courtyard.
Jinxuan looked at everyone's expressions and felt a sense of emptiness, as if something was missing. She stared at the empty teleportation array and left with a soft sigh.
She knew that South Flame City was about to enter another turbulent period after a hundred years of peace.
Perhaps the South Flame City was no longer suitable for the Ziyun Chamber of Commerce. Now, all her energy should be focused on taking back the lost market and meeting the person she wanted to see.
