When Scarlet Shang mentioned the origin of the Seven-colored Heaven Crystal, Yi Tian had an idea. Now, there were not many people in Di Luo City who could be related to the Asura Imperial City.
Other than the three City Lords, there were only the Crown Prince of Xun King and the imperial guard general. Among them, Yi Tian knew that the one he didn't want to meet the most was the Crown Prince of Xun King. The reason was very simple. Since he had the title of Crown Prince, he must have a deep understanding of the Asura Imperial Family. The secret on him might be sensed by him. Even when he met the imperial censor Mi Baiji in the Historical Library, he was questioned by him.
There were many capable people in the Asura Imperial Family, but the more it was like this, the more cautious he had to be.
Under the guidance of the attendant at the door, Yi Tian and Scarlet Shang shuttled through the pavilions and soon arrived outside a unique courtyard. Immediately, a voice came from inside, "Leader Scarlet, you've arrived, right? Please come in quickly."
Hearing this voice, it was the Crown Prince of Xun King. Yi Tian's expression didn't change, but he felt helpless in his heart. But since he was already here, he couldn't turn around and weaken his prestige. He extended his Divine Sense to investigate and found that there seemed to be more than one person in the courtyard. He immediately asked, "Leader Scarlet, it seems that we've come at a bad time?"
"It's okay, Brother Yi, you don't have to worry too much. That is the Crown Prince of Xun King's study companion. He often attends to him," Scarlet Shang said and walked in directly.
Yi Tian also felt that it was pointless to ask an unnecessary question. He then followed her into the inner courtyard.
This was a courtyard with a radius of 200 feet. In the middle, there was a stone pavilion for receiving guests. The Crown Prince of Xun King was sitting in it. The attendant behind him sent them a few steps before turning around and leaving. Before leaving, he opened the soundproof barrier in the courtyard.
After walking to the stone pavilion with Scarlet Shang, he glanced around and saw the Crown Prince of Xun King sitting inside. There was a pot of wine and a jade slip on the table. He seemed to be discussing something with someone.
On the other hand, the study companion hurriedly stood up and bowed to the two visitors, "Junior Imperial Censor Mi Baiji greets the two seniors."
After he finished speaking, he walked directly behind Xun Wang Shizi and stood at the side. Xun Wang Shizi was very tactful. Seeing the cultivation level of the person who came, he knew that the person's identity was different, so he did not dare to act rashly.
However, Yi Tian noticed that after his gaze swept past him, a strange look flashed across his eyes. Then, he pretended as if nothing had happened and continued to wait on the side.
He smiled faintly and did not say much. In any case, he was only here to discuss business with Duan Xiaolou, so he naturally had to put on airs.
After the two of them sat down, Prince Xun went straight to the point and asked, "How should I address you?"
"I am Asura Sect's Consecrated Elder Yi Tian." Knowing that there was no need for him to hide anything anymore, he directly reported his name.
Duan Xiaolou's hand that was holding the wine cup obviously paused. After a while, he slowly put down the wine cup and cupped his fist, "So it's Brother Yi. It's nice to meet you."
Seeing his sudden change in attitude, Scarlet Shang shouted, "Brother Yi has taken a fancy to the item that Prince consigned for sale this time, so I took the liberty to disturb you and want to make a private deal."
"Head Scarlet has contributed a lot. So, Brother Yi, please take out the item for exchange and let me examine it." Duan Xiaolou said without changing his expression.
However, Yi Tian noticed that Duan Xiaolou's eyes seemed to be flickering and did not dare to talk to him directly. He naturally guessed something. Prince Xun King was not a fool. He should have recognized him when he reported his name just now.
The last time the imperial court sent an envoy to Asura Sect, the battle between him and Luo Yao had naturally been leaked. Although Yun Lin and Luo Yao would not reveal too much information, there were still many people present at the scene. It was hard to guarantee that there would not be people who would exaggerate the process of that battle and spread it.
This way, it would be easy for Duan Xiaolou to recognize him. At least he would not dare to suppress him during the exchange process. However, Yi Tian was rather wary of Imperial Censor Mi Baiji. He did not expect this guy to be like him, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.
When they met in the Hall of Records, he did not see through Mi Baiji's true cultivation. However, there was one thing that he was sure of. Mi Baiji had a way to detect the imprint on his body. If Mi Baiji whispered something to Duan Xiaolou after this, the trouble that he would face in the future would be extremely troublesome.
After thinking about it, he could not help but look at Mi Baiji. He saw Mi Baiji standing at the side respectfully. Even though he recognized him, he still pretended to be meditating like an old monk.
At most, Mi Baiji would talk behind his back. Yi Tian was relieved. He then took out the jade bottle and gently placed it on the table. "A drop of Profound Yin Primordial Water. It should be enough to exchange for the Rainbow Illusion Crystal in the prince's hands."
After saying that, he gently opened the bottle cap. The surrounding temperature instantly dropped by quite a bit. Frost instantly formed on the stone table. The layer of white frost spread out along the surface of the table. Originally, the courtyard was in the warm spring season. However, under the influence of the Profound Yin Primordial Water, it felt as if it had returned to winter.
After Duan Xiaolou scanned the jade bottle with his spiritual sense, his face twitched slightly. "Brother Yi, please accept it. I am very satisfied with this item. Let's exchange it for the Rainbow Illusion Crystal."
Hearing this, Chi Hongchang's face lit up. She flipped her hand and took out a jade brocade box. She placed it on the table and gently pushed it over.
Yi Tian casually closed the bottle cap. Only then did the cold Qi it was emitting recede. The surrounding temperature slowly rose. He reached out and opened the brocade box. There was a Rainbow Illusion Crystal the size of a baby's head. Needless to say, it was the Illusion Crystal.
After scanning it with his spiritual sense, he calculated the value of the Profound Yin Primordial Water for the Rainbow Illusion Crystal. However, he didn't know how to deal with the 30% commission fee that Chi Hongchang mentioned.
Seeing his thoughtful expression, Duan Xiaolou asked, "Since both of us have acknowledged each other, does Fellow Daoist Yi have any other concerns?"
Yi Tian couldn't help but laugh. "There is no problem with the exchange. However, Leader Chi Hongchang mentioned that there is a 30% commission fee. I am currently considering it."
Hearing this, Scarlet Robe chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Yi, you are indeed a man of your word. Since that's the case, my Red Alluring Association will fulfill your wish and not accept any commission. I hope that the two of you can take care of the Chamber of Commerce in the future. I will be forever grateful."
Seeing that she was so tactful, Duan Xiaolou nodded with satisfaction. He then put away the jade bottle. Yi Tian didn't waste any time and put the brocade box into his storage ring.
Like this, everyone was happy. In fact, the one who benefited the most was Chi Hongchang. The two of them owed her a favor. In the future, whether it was in the imperial city or the Fantasy Realm, her Red Alluring Association would be able to find people to protect her.
Glancing at Mei Baiji, Yi Tian thought to himself, "I still have to bring you out and have a good talk with you."
