Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 405: Underground Trade Fair
"Have you counted what's lost in Fengyu Palace?" Feng Hengkong asked with an angry brow.
Feng Xichen answered respectfully: "The thing Hua Minghai stole the most in the past was the Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal. However, the Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal and Purple Veined Divine Crystal in the Fengyu Palace have not decreased at all. Instead, there is... a half-used Phoenix Sunflower. I think the thief was in a state of confusion after triggering the Guardian Mysterious Array, so he grabbed something and fled in a hurry."
"Half a Phoenix Sunflower?" Although Phoenix Sunflower is rare, it is not a very precious thing for the Phoenix Divine Sect. Feng Hengkong snorted coldly: "Even if nothing is missing, he dared to break into my Phoenix Divine Sect and he is seeking death. From today on, track down Hua Minghai's whereabouts throughout the empire. If you can capture him alive, it would be the best. If it is difficult to capture him alive, kill him on the spot!"
"Yes! I will give the order immediately. Even if Hua Minghai has the ability to reach the sky, he can't escape from the palm of our Phoenix Divine Sect." Feng Xichen promised.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Hua Minghai can enter and exit my Phoenix Divine Sect safely, which is worthy of being a test for you! Don't let me down."
"Yes, father, I will definitely not let you down."
Feng Hengkong turned around and prepared to leave. When he stepped to the door, he paused and said lightly: "Before the ranking battle begins, Xue'er will be in Qifeng Valley for cultivation. No one within 50 miles around Qifeng Valley, even if there is a big problem, can't get close to it! But I'm still a little worried. When you order to track down Hua Minghai, arrange some people to guard the east, west and north sides of Qifeng Valley. Don't let anyone get close. If anyone dares to disturb Xue'er, no matter who it is, he will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, I will do it right away."
After Feng Hengkong left Feng Xichen breathed a sigh of relief. After a long silence, he began to get anxious again. After pacing back and forth in the hall for dozens of times, he finally frowned and whispered, "Chihuo, come in!"
A flash of fire appeared, and a middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties appeared in front of Feng Xichen as if teleporting. He bowed and said, "What do you want, Prince?"
"Leave the palace immediately. These days, secretly look for a person named 'Yun Che' in Shenhuang City! He is coming to participate in the Seven Nations Ranked Tournament. He will definitely appear within half a month... Maybe he has already come. After discovering him, immediately... Kill him secretly... Remember, the more secretive you do it, the better. After killing him, destroy the body directly. It is best not to leave any traces!" Feng Xichen said with a sinister look.
"Yes, Prince." Feng Chihuo nodded in agreement.
"Remember, don't let anyone else know about this except you and me! Including my father." Feng Xichen said with a serious face.
The surprise on Feng Chihuo's face flashed, and then he nodded without hesitation: "I will definitely not let the prince down...I will take my leave."
Feng Chihuo left, Feng Xichen clenched his hands, his eyes flashing with sinister hatred, he whispered: "Yun Che...I can't relieve my hatred without killing you with my own hands! But before the ranking battle, you must die! After destroying the Blue Wind Country, that deep humiliation will be buried under my feet forever!"
——————————————
The next day, Yun Che came to the Luoyan Chamber of Commerce in Shenhuang City according to the direction Zi Ji said.
After arriving, Yun Che found that this place was indeed as Zi Ji said. Although it was named a chamber of commerce, it was not an orthodox chamber of commerce. To be precise, it was more like an underground exchange! And the scale was not large. In this area, there are many similar underground exchanges, and they all bear the name of the chamber of commerce.
However, as long as you can buy Phoenix Sunflower, it doesn't matter whether it is a chamber of commerce or a black market.
Yun Che saw a plaque with the words "Luoyan Chamber of Commerce" engraved on it in a remote dark alley. Below the plaque, a young girl was standing gracefully. Seeing Yun Che approaching, she took the initiative to greet him: "Sir, are you here to participate in the Luoyan Trade Fair?"
"Yes, please lead the way, young lady." Yun Che said with a natural expression. Back in Cangyun Continent, he had come into contact with a large number of black markets, which were places where people were introduced to trade, and they also had to pay a high "entrance fee".
The girl who led him said: "Today's Luoyan Trade Fair will have many rare treasures for sale, so the entrance fee is slightly higher than usual, twenty purple Xuan coins are required."
Twenty doesn't sound like much... but twenty purple Xuan coins, that's a full two hundred thousand yellow Xuan coins! And it's just the "entrance fee"!
Yun Che didn't say much, and happily handed over twenty purple Xuan coins... The little girl in front of him would never have thought that Yun Che had a huge sum of 100 billion yellow Xuan coins on his body.
"Young Master, please follow me."
The girl accepted the purple profound coins and led Yun Che into the dark alley. After several turns of the road, they walked into a hidden underground space. This space was not wide, and there were only thirty or forty seats in total. At this time, there were more than twenty people sitting scattered on these seats. Although this place was remote and hidden, the clothes of these people were all extremely luxurious... Even those who were willing to pay the entrance fee of twenty purple profound coins must be very wealthy.
After Yun Che came in, the people present glanced at him one after another. After sensing that he only had the profound power of the Earth Profound Realm, they all showed disdain on their faces, and then turned their faces away and never looked at him again. A person who was less than twenty years old was a rare genius in the Earth Profound Realm in the Blue Wind Country, but in the Divine Phoenix Empire, he could only be relegated to the middle and lower classes. In the eyes of these self-proclaimed upper-class people, he was not worth mentioning at all.
Yun Che naturally ignored anyone and found a place to sit down.
After Yun Che, no one else came in. Not long after, a charming and charming voice came: "Masters, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
The secret door opened, and a plump and graceful woman walked out slowly. Behind her, followed an old man with half a hundred hair. The woman was dressed in a tight-fitting black dress, with all her curves exposed, and her charming eyes were like peach blossoms. She looked at everyone present with watery eyes, almost taking away their souls.
"Hey...my little Qiqi, you are finally here. I have been waiting so long." A young man in blue clothes stood up and looked straight at the woman who walked in with a look of lust and soul. Professor's appearance.
"Giggle, giggle..." The woman covered her lips and smiled, her voice soft and charming: "Young Master Gongsun is always so impatient. I promise you that today's treasure will not disappoint you. Young Masters, please keep your eyes open. Look at the slave family carefully, and don't show mercy when bidding later. Oh, by the way, the young masters I met for the first time, Xiao Qi from the slave family, is the host of the Luoyan Fair. Please come often in the future. Look at the slave family."
This woman named Xiaoqi spoke coquettishly and had an alluring attitude. Although the men present looked serious on the surface, they all waggled their index fingers and secretly drooled. If we say the one who is truly as calm as ever, Yun Che is basically the only one... because this vixen is so far behind his two wives that even if he mobilizes his manly instinct, he can't even arouse the slightest interest.
"How has my master ever made a move to disappoint Xiao Qiqi?" The young man known as "Mr. Gongsun" looked at Xiao Qi with a squinting look: "I just don't know if you, Xiao Qiqi, are among the treasures to be auctioned today. Where is this treasure? If there is one, I will buy it even if I lose all my wealth."
"Geez, Mr. Gongsun is so bad." Xiao Qi stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and gave Mr. Gongsun a charming look that made him weak all over.
In Yun Che's heart, 10,000 grass and mud horses rushed past.
The trade fair finally got to the point. Xiao Qi stretched out her hand and took a green jade box from the old man behind her. She held the jade box in both hands, her charming eyes swept over everyone, and said with a smile: "This jade box In the middle, there are two pieces of amethyst chalcedony, which are the most essence contained in a huge amethyst jade mine. They can be used to drive a mysterious ark. One piece of amethyst chalcedony can drive a 100,000-kilogram mysterious ark to fly. A hundred hours, and pouring it into a spiritual weapon can greatly increase the spirituality of the weapon. "
Amethyst Chalcedony...can increase the spirituality of weapons?
Yun Che's heart suddenly moved. His Dragon Fault is a spiritual weapon of the Emperor's Mystery, but its spirituality is not of a high level. The most common manifestations at present are that it automatically returns after leaving the hand, and emits a dragon roar when angry. If it can be made to have stronger spirituality, It will undoubtedly be of great benefit to you.
He only came here for Phoenix Sunflower, but he didn't expect to encounter this Amethyst Chalcedony. Although this underground trade fair is small in scale, the items sold are extremely extraordinary. No wonder the admission fee is so high.
"Oh! It's actually amethyst chalcedony!" The young man surnamed Gongsun showed an excited look on his face: "I have been looking for this thing for a long time, but I didn't expect that Xiao Qiqi has two of them... …As expected of my little Qiqi! Tell me, what’s the low price of these two pieces of amethyst chalcedony?”
Xiao Qi held up the jade box in her hand and narrowed her charming eyes into a thin slit: "Six hundred Zixuan coins. Master Gongsun should know how precious amethyst chalcedony is, so this price must not be expensive."
"Six hundred... Well, this price is indeed generous." The young man surnamed Gongsun said with a smile. He half-turned around, gave a fist to the people around him, and said: "Dear friends, Gong Sunyu of the Holy Sword Sect is in urgent need of this amethyst. Chalcedony enhances the spirituality of your beloved sword, I hope all my friends will give it to me.”
As soon as the words "Holy Sword Sect Gong Sun Yu" came out, many people present suddenly changed their expressions, and their thoughts of preparing to bid were suddenly suppressed. Although the Holy Sword Sect cannot be compared with the Divine Phoenix Sect, it is still one of the famous sects in the Divine Phoenix Empire, and it is also a hegemon that cannot be messed with in Divine Phoenix City. And this Gong Sunyu is the youngest son of the current leader of the Holy Sword Sect.
A lazy voice sounded at this time: "Brother Gongsun, since it is a trade fair, of course the one with the highest price will get it. If you play like this, how can Miss Xiaoqi do business? Miss Xiaoqi doesn't say anything, I will watch it." No more.”
After hearing this, Gongsun Yu was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed, raised his hands to the person who spoke, and said: "Brother Nalan taught me a lesson. Brother, I was a little excited when I saw the hunting heart. I will never do this again." ”
Upon hearing the word "Nalan", the expressions of the people present changed again... The Nalan family is also one of the giants in Divine Phoenix City, and they have been friends with the Holy Sword Sect for thousands of years. The person who spoke was named Nalan Xiong, and his status in the Nalan family was also very prominent. He seemed to be reprimanding Gong Sunyu, but in fact, he was using the family's reputation to put pressure on everyone else present, making them dare not Bid with Gongsun Yuyu.
"I want two pieces of amethyst chalcedony and six hundred purple profound coins." Gongsun Yu said with a smile.
At this time, an extremely plain, yet extremely discordant voice suddenly came from a corner: "Seven hundred Zixuan coins."
Gongsun Yu frowned fiercely, turned his head, and his eyes fell on Yun Che. He glanced at Yun Che's profound strength cultivation, and deep disdain flashed in his eyes... But the other party had the courage to bid with him, and he might have a prominent net worth, so he did not dare to offend him rashly, and said in a neutral tone: " My friend, it seems that you don’t want to give me Gong Sunyu this face?”
Yun Che smiled faintly and said, "What I want is the purple crystal jade, what does it have to do with your face?"
Gongsun Yu's mouth moved slightly, his face obviously darkened, he sneered and said, "You are right, the competition at the trade fair depends on strength, not face. Since you also want to get this purple crystal jade, then let's see if you have the ability... One thousand purple coins!"
