After some time, the middle-aged man nodded in satisfaction. He lifted his head to look at Lin Yun and said with a smile, "Sir, I have never seen or heard of these minerals before."
"However, based on the energy and quality of these minerals, they are extraordinary. They are the highest-grade minerals in the Three Realms!"
"Currently, the highest-grade mineral in the Three Realms is priced at fifty thousand high-grade Primary Stones per catty."
"The Elysium Auction House is willing to purchase these minerals for forty thousand high-grade Primary Stones per catty. What do you think, Sir?"
Forty thousand high-grade Primary Stones?
This price was within Lin Yun's consideration. Although it was a little low, Lin Yun was in urgent need of money.
Moreover, these minerals could not be used as a substitute for Immortal Inkstone, even though their quality was much higher than Immortal Inkstone's.
"Here are a million high-grade Primary Stones and fifty catties of minerals. Take it as my payment for the Immortal Inkstone." Lin Yun placed a million high-grade Primary Stones on the table.
"Sure." The middle-aged man put the Primary Stones and minerals into his storage ring, then gave the maidservant a look, gesturing for her to leave.
After the maidservant left, Lin Yun was about to leave as well. However, the middle-aged man's voice came from behind. "Please wait, Sir Lin Yun!"
Lin Yun frowned and turned to look at the middle-aged man.
How did this person know his identity? Moreover, from the moment he stepped into the appraisal room, Lin Yun had already sensed that this middle-aged man was at the peak of level-nine Wu Huang. He was probably the person in charge of the Elysium Auction House.
"I am Ji Leshan, the person in charge of the Elysium Auction House. Don't worry, Sir Lin Yun, I have no ill intentions." Just as Lin Yun had expected, Ji Leshan was the person in charge of the Elysium Auction House.
"I have heard of Sir Lin Yun's fame, but it is a pity that I have not been able to witness your glory."
"How did you recognize me?" Since his identity had been seen through, Lin Yun simply took off his mask, sat on the chair, and looked at Ji Leshan calmly.
Although it was Wu Huang, who was at the pinnacle of Level Nine, he was still like a chicken or a dog in front of him. He could kill him easily. Therefore, Lin Yun didn't have to worry at all.
"That's simple. The title plate that Milord is using belongs to the Assassination Society's Vice President, Ye Shenghui."
"The Assassination Association was destroyed by Lord Lin Yun's hands. Rumor has it that a while ago, the Sacred Alliance's branch in Kai Ze City was in chaos. Ye Shenghui and Lord Lin Yun joined hands and heavily injured the two leaders of the Sacred Alliance, Wu Sheng."
"Therefore, if I may be so bold as to guess, the owner of this title plate is probably Lord Lin Yun." Ji Leshan didn't seem flustered as he poured two glasses of liquor and handed them to Lin Yun.
"There are rumors that the Assassination Association and the Anti-Union Religion are in alliance." Lin Yun downed the liquor in one gulp and looked at Ji Leshan with interest.
It could be said that the Seven Devils were in the same boat as the Anti-Union Religion. However, after he destroyed the Assassination Association, there was still no news from the Sacred Sect, which surprised Lin Yun a little.
"The rumors are true, but Lord Lin Yun doesn't know that although the Sacred Sect has allied with the Seven Devils, it is only to resist the Sacred Alliance."
"The Assassination Association is courting death by doing all kinds of evil and offending Lord Lin Yun. What does that have to do with the Sacred Sect?" Ji Leshan laughed.
This sentence made Lin Yun understand that the Sacred Sect had allied with the Seven Devils to resist the Sacred Alliance.
As for any disputes between the Seven Devils and the outside world, the Sacred Sect would neither interfere nor help.
Compared to the Seven Devils, their relationship was extremely poor. Otherwise, why wouldn't the Dark Sect send reinforcements when they knew that he was attacking the Assassination Association?
"What else do you want? Say it." Lin Yun knew that Ji Leshan wouldn't ask him to stay just to say a few words.
"In that case, I'll get straight to the point," Ji Leshan said.
It turned out that Ji Leshan planned to discuss something with Lin Yun, which was to provide Lin Yun with a large amount of Immortal Inkstones.
Although Immortal Inkstones were a type of precious metal, they weren't widely used and were often unsalable.
Ji Leshan saw that Lin Yun was willing to pay a high price of 5,000,000 upper-grade Primordial Stones for this batch of Immortal Inkstones, so he could naturally see Lin Yun's need for Immortal Inkstones.
"900 upper-grade Primordial Stones per catty."
Ji Leshan gave a price that Lin Yun wouldn't reject, because Lin Yun would need a large amount of Immortal Inkstones in the future.
Now, it seemed that other than the Divine Heaven Auction House, no other place could provide Lin Yun with so many Immortal Inkstones.
The two hit it off and Lin Yun paid 500,000 upper-grade Primordial Stones as a deposit.
"Also, as a friend, I have a message for Lord Lin Yun!" Ji Leshan said after they drank a few more cups of wine.
Lin Yun looked at him and nodded.
"The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind." Ji Leshan smiled.
Lin Yun understood what Ji Leshan meant. Lin Yun was too high-profile now. First, he destroyed the Assassination Society and established Tu Shenzong. Now, he even caused a huge commotion in the Sacred Alliance's division.
Now that Lin Yun had crossed some people's bottom line, these people would probably make an example out of Lin Yun.
"I'm just a businessman, so I won't bother with the matters of the Underworld."
"Lord Lin Yun, if there's anything you need in the future, you can look for me at the Divine Heaven Auction House."
After that, Lin Yun learned about the Sacred Alliance's actions from Sun Qiu, he bade farewell and led Nangong and the rest back to the Northern Region.
A few days later, Lin Yun and the rest returned to Tu Shenzong.
"Sect Leader!" Seeing Lin Yun's return, everyone bowed respectfully.
"The three of you, go and rest. Dragon and Phoenix, follow me." Lin Yun brought the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts to the Technique Research Hall.
At this moment, everyone in the Technique Research Hall was working hard. The prototype of 300 immortal-qi airships was not something that could be completed in a day.
"Sect Leader!" Upon seeing Lin Yun, the members of the Technique Research Hall stopped what they were doing and bowed to Lin Yun.
"Where's Hallmaster Jiang?" Lin Yun asked.
"Reporting to Sect Leader, Hallmaster Jiang is in the backyard."
Lin Yun nodded and turned into two shadows with the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts. With extreme speed, they flew towards the backyard and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
After crossing the long corridor, Lin Yun and the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts arrived at the backyard.
"Big Brother Lin Yun, you're back." Jiang Yan immediately walked up to Lin Yun when she saw him.
Jiang Yan looked haggard and there was dust on her face and body. It was easy to guess that she had not had a good rest for the past few days.
