Chapter 1028: Chapter 1028: You’re Asking for Death! Chapter 1028: Chapter 1028: You’re Asking for Death! “To get by in the overseas world of cultivators, one needs money, or should I say, Spirit Stones, right?”
It just so happened that Huang Xiaolong had arrived at this marketplace, and he planned to sell some items.
Huang Xiaolong carried many valuable things with him, including dozens of flying swords. In fact, he was quite wealthy. Even at his worst, drawing some talismans for sale would earn him a tidy sum.
Therefore, Huang Xiaolong wasn’t worried about this at all. He was curious to see if there was anything in the marketplace that he needed, or perhaps something his two wives and three little demons could use.
At that moment, the Loose Cultivators had settled into their rooms.
Huang Xiaolong was assigned two rooms.
He shared one room with Ying Aoshan and Song Yuru, while the three little demons squeezed into the other.
The room was quite large, with furniture made of tender bamboo, showing great craftsmanship. On the windowsill were placed exotic flowers and herbs which, with a breeze, filled the room with a rich fragrance.
There was also a guqin placed elegantly in the room.
“Sigh~~ I’m so tired,” Song Yuru said as she sat on the bed, letting out a breath, then she curved her eyebrows and chuckled, “Little Long, the environment here is really great, and the air is too. It’s just that the people are fierce.”
Ying Aoshan sat behind the guqin, her slender fingers gently plucking the strings, immediately filling the room with elegant notes.
“Yes, overseas cultivators, each of them is arrogant, but you get used to it,” laughed Huang Xiaolong nonchalantly. “However, you two will soon become members of the overseas cultivators. Your talents are exceptional, and many sects will fight to take you as disciples. Then, it will be your turn to bully others.”
“Cut~~ Little Long, I don’t want to bully anyone. I just want to stay by your side,” teased Song Yuru, making a playful face at Huang Xiaolong.
Just then, a knock on the door was heard, and the only female among the six Loose Cultivators spoke respectfully from outside, “Senior, it’s time for dinner.”
“Big wife, Aoshan wife, let’s go eat,” Huang Xiaolong said, looking out the window where the setting sun was casting golden light over the sea, creating an exotic ambiance.
Huang Xiaolong and others left the inn and found a restaurant nearby.
The six Loose Cultivators hosted Huang Xiaolong and his family.
The food on the island was very strange; for instance, the vegetarian dishes were mostly things Huang Xiaolong and his companions had never seen before, while the meat dishes comprised whale and shark meat, as well as various kinds of wild game with nourishing properties.
The tastes were good, and the nutritional values were extremely high, capable even of nourishing the body and transforming the marrow!
“I must say, the world of overseas cultivators knows how to live~~ Hahaha… even these vegetarian dishes are wild Spirit Grass, all natural and pollution-free,” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but praise.
Even Ying Aoshan and Song Yuru, somewhat neglecting ladylike manners, devoured their food heartily.
The three little demons were eating deliciously as well.
“This meal must have cost you quite a bit,” said Huang Xiaolong while eating. “Don’t worry, I’ll repay you with double Spirit Stones later. I’m a person who never likes to take advantage of others. Uh~~ Is there a night market tonight?”
“Senior, one of the specialties of the Guan Shan Island market is the night market! After we finish eating, I’ll take you for a stroll,” one of the Loose Cultivators offered eagerly. “Senior, are you planning to sell some items?”
“Yes,” nodded Huang Xiaolong.
“Then, Senior, if it’s high-quality items, or big deals, you don’t need to set up a stall at the night market. You should go directly to the auction house,” another Loose Cultivator advised.
Huang Xiaolong understood.
It turned out that setting up a stall at the night market was only for selling less valuable items.
“Alright, we’ll stroll the night market first and then head to the auction house,” Huang Xiaolong nodded cheerfully.
After finishing their meal.
They walked out of the restaurant.
A cultivator with a bearded face, exuding early-stage Divine Skills mana fluctuations and strutting arrogantly, approached them.
“Senior, please wait a moment,” said the Loose Cultivators to Huang Xiaolong, then they all walked towards the bearded cultivator.
Huang Xiaolong stood watching as several cultivators took out several talismans that had sealed sea serpent demon corpses and handed them to the bearded cultivator.
The bearded cultivator scanned them with his divine sense, nodded slightly, and then it appeared that they were bargaining.
Eventually, the bearded cultivator left some Spirit Stones and took the talismans sealing the sea serpent demon corpses with him and walked away.
“Oh? They made a deal just like that?” Huang Xiaolong seemed to recognize what was happening; the Loose Cultivators had made a transaction with the bearded man.
“Senior, that man is one of the second-hand dealers of Guan Shan Island market. We usually sell the items we need to sell to him, and he makes a profit from them,” one of the Loose Cultivators explained.
“Man, you guys fought to the death to kill that sea serpent demon, only to let someone siphon off a part of the profits for free. Why bother?” Huang Xiaolong said, somewhat at a loss for words.
Those few Loose Cultivators all sighed with gloomy expressions.
“Senior, you don’t know our difficulties. We are too weak and don’t have any backing. If someone with ill intentions targets us, even if we are safe in the market, trouble will follow once we leave,” one of the Loose Cultivators said distressedly. “We had no choice but to let the middlemen leech off us.”
“Uh~ You guys are really too timid,” Huang Xiaolong muttered. “Forget it, first take me to the auction house. I need to exchange some spirit stones, then I’ll go to the night market. Having money on hand keeps the heart steady. Otherwise, what if I see something I like at the night market but have no money to buy it? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing? It’s not like I can always borrow from you guys, especially since you’re broke too.”
“Yes, yes, Senior, let’s head to the largest auction house on Guan Shan Island. It has the best reputation, famously fair to both young and old,” another Loose Cultivator quickly said.
Leading the way, the Loose Cultivator walked with Huang Xiaolong and the others quickly arriving at a splendidly magnificent palace.
Several cultivators were entering and exiting the palace.
Huang Xiaolong noticed that those who could enter and exit the palace were all cultivators of significant realms–all Divine Skills realm! The ones in the Mana realm, mere small fries, generally had no eligibility to come here.
Indeed, this palace was the island’s largest auction house, dealing in big transactions, which were inaccessible to cultivators at the Mana realm; at most, they struggled to make a living in this perilous overseas world of cultivators.
“Senior, please go ahead. We’ll just wait outside for you,” the Loose Cultivators said, too intimidated to enter the palace.
“You guys come in too. Don’t worry, with me here, no one will dare to bully you,” Huang Xiaolong said, his eyes flashing sharply as a faint pressure emanated from him. “Come in!”
Upon meeting Huang Xiaolong’s gaze, the six Loose Cultivators were greatly shaken, feeling an irresistible urge to submit, and dared not defy Huang Xiaolong’s words.
“Yes, Senior.”
Immediately, the group strode into the palace.
The hall inside the palace was extremely spacious, with the floor covered in spirit stones! Moreover, there were Formations inscribed on them to keep the spiritual energy from dispersing.
Thus, the spiritual energy in the entire main hall was incredibly rich, almost like ethereal mist, exuding an air of high elegance!
Some cultivators sat leisurely inside the hall, sipping tea, and pulling out items for the auction house’s professionals to authenticate and price.
“Heh~ Nice ambiance,” Huang Xiaolong nodded slightly.
However, they seemed too weak. For a moment, no one came up to greet him, which was a bit awkward.
“Little Long, what are you planning to sell?” Ying Aoshan asked softly.
Xiaohong’s eyes rolled around a few times, “Young Master, I know, you have many flying swords, so you must be planning to sell a few flying swords.”
“Wrong. Who said I’m selling flying swords?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
Actually, on the way to the auction house, Huang Xiaolong had already decided what he was going to sell.
Huang Xiaolong was certain that the item he was going to sell was worth far more than any flying sword!
It was–an Immortal Pill obtained from Emperor Qin’s tomb!!!!
An Immortal Pill that could grant eternal life!
Seeked overseas by Xu Fu in the ancient times!
Xu Fu had taken this pill and was still alive in the world, having established Dongying’s underworld and become King Yan!
Huang Xiaolong had a total of six Immortal Pills on him, and at this moment, he planned to auction off just one to test the waters and see what price it could fetch.
“You ants daring to come to the auction house!” A challenging and icy male voice rang out.
Upon hearing this voice, Huang Xiaolong knew who it was.
It was the arrogant brocade-clad young man who had tried to forcefully buy Huang Xiaolong’s immortal cranes when he had first set foot on the island.
“What, thinking of selling the immortal cranes?” The brocade-clad young man strolled up to Huang Xiaolong leisurely. Behind him stood two old servants, statue-like.
“That’s not it,” Huang Xiaolong said with a slight smile.
“I can hardly imagine what else you have worth auctioning besides those immortal cranes. Never mind, this isn’t a place for you, get out!” The brocade-clad young man waved at Huang Xiaolong as if shooing away a fly.
The killing intent in Huang Xiaolong’s heart subtly stirred; he was the mighty Yin Emperor, yet a mere early Divine Skills realm brat dared to jump around before him time and again. Was he not courting death?
“Hehehe~~” Huang Xiaolong laughed innocuously and said calmly, “Do you realize that you are courting death?”
