Chapter 125: Discovering an Incredible Secret

Ye Chen smiled and nodded, saying, “Alright, Junior Sister, I’ll listen to you for everything.”

Soon, Zhao Ling and Ye Chen flew towards the massive city at the center of Wind and Thunder Prefecture.

“Senior Brother, look quickly, isn’t that the person who sold us the emperor decree back then?”

Zhao Ling said excitedly at this moment.

Ye Chen looked closely at the shifty-looking figure, then said in surprise, “It really is him! The entire Shuo Province was searched, and I didn’t expect this person to be hiding in this obscure Wind and Thunder Prefecture.”

“Let’s go, Junior Sister, let’s catch him and force him to reveal where the emperor decree came from.”

At this, Zhao Ling quickly pulled Ye Chen back, “Senior Brother, let’s first see what he intends to do. If it really doesn’t work out, it won’t be too late to interrogate him then. Otherwise, we’ll only alert him.”

Ye Chen nodded, then said, “Hmm, Junior Sister, you’re more thoughtful.”

At this moment, Duan De, a small figure at Earth Immortal First Layer, had no idea that he would one day be followed by two Peak Saints.

He had now arrived at the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce again.

At the entrance, two Disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace smiled and said to Duan De, “Senior Duan, welcome to the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce.”

Duan De smiled and said, “Two Fairies, has the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce stocked new goods today?”

One of the Hundred Flowers Palace Disciples smiled and said, “Senior Duan, you’ve really come at the right time today. The Qin Family Chamber of Commerce has just stocked a new batch of goods, guaranteed to satisfy Senior Duan.”

For the two Hundred Flowers Palace Disciples, Duan De was a major customer! He had spent a total of over eight hundred billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones at the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce alone, which was why they were so enthusiastic.

“Oh, it seems I’ll have to show off my skills again today.”

As soon as he entered, Duan De bumped into Wen Qianqian.

“Senior Duan, a new batch of goods just arrived today, would you like to take a look?”

Duan De saw many Cultivators inside the Chamber of Commerce choosing Magic Treasures and Medicinal Pills, and he smiled, saying, “Palace Master Wen, the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce’s business is becoming more and more prosperous. I’m truly envious.”

“Senior Duan, you’re joking. Our Qin Family Chamber of Commerce is still far inferior to the Duan Family. Well then, I’ll take you to the fifth floor. There’s a batch of goods that just arrived and hasn’t even been revealed to the public yet.”

“Oh, is it some rare item again? Come on, take me to see it.”

Then, Wen Qianqian led Duan De up to the fifth floor of the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce, which was specifically for receiving Cultivators at the Human Immortal Realm and above.

Outside at this moment, Zhao Ling frowned and said, “Senior Brother, why do you think that person went to such a small Chamber of Commerce? With his Earth Immortal Realm cultivation, there shouldn’t be anything useful for him in the entire Wind and Thunder Prefecture. It’s quite strange.”

“Junior Sister, what exactly is going on, we’ll know if we go and see, won’t we?”

Soon, the two arrived at the entrance.

At this moment, the two Hundred Flowers Palace Disciples guarding the entrance suddenly showed shocked expressions, then respectfully said, “Welcome, two Seniors, to the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce?”

Ye Chen nodded, then entered the Chamber of Commerce and began to look around.

“Junior Sister, there’s nothing special about this Chamber of Commerce. It’s all items needed by Cultivators below Soul Transformation. Although the prices are fair, they are useless to us.”

“Senior Brother, no, that person isn’t here. Did he go up to the second floor?”

After Ye Chen and Zhao Ling left, the two Hundred Flowers Palace Disciples guarding the entrance sent a message to Wen Qianqian on the fifth floor.

“Palace Master, two important figures have arrived at the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce, one male and one female, both Great Perfection Saint Cultivators.”

And at this moment, she was introducing the wonderful uses of the diluted Life Divine Spring when she suddenly received the message, and her expression instantly became solemn.

“Senior Duan, please excuse me, I need to go downstairs.”

Before Duan De could react, Wen Qianqian hurried downstairs, because for Wind and Thunder Prefecture, a Peak Saint expert was an extremely important figure who absolutely could not be neglected.

If she neglected them and made them unhappy, wouldn’t that bring trouble to the Qin Family? She couldn’t bear that responsibility.

Upon reaching the first floor, Wen Qianqian immediately spotted Ye Chen and Zhao Ling wandering around.

“Two Fellow Daoists, I am Wen Qianqian, the shopkeeper of this Chamber of Commerce. The first floor contains items for Cultivators below the Soul Transformation Stage. May we discuss on the fifth floor of the Chamber of Commerce?”

Ye Chen and Zhao Ling looked at each other, then nodded.

Then, Ye Chen and Zhao Ling followed Wen Qianqian to the fifth floor, where Duan De was looking at the diluted Life Divine Spring with shining eyes.

On the counter, there were about twenty bottles of baihua brew. Each bottle was marked as being able to extend life by thirty years. As for the price, it could deter some ordinary Cultivators: one trillion Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

And this baihua brew was concocted by Wen Qianqian using life divine spring source liquid and the baihua brew unique to the Hundred Flowers Palace.

However, these diluted Life Divine Spring differed slightly from the original liquid, as their effect on healing injuries was somewhat weakened, but for ordinary Cultivators, they were still rare divine items.

At this moment, Zhao Ling sent a message to Ye Chen, “Senior Brother, it’s him.”

Duan De heard someone coming up, then said, “Palace Master Wen, how many tokens can this baihua brew be exchanged for?”

However, the moment he turned around, he saw two people who shouldn’t have been there, and then he said in surprise, “It’s actually you two.”

Wen Qianqian said in surprise, “You two know each other?”

Duan De smiled and said, “Palace Master Wen, let me introduce you. These two are the Saint and Saintess of the Tiangang Sect.”

Hearing Duan De’s words, Wen Qianqian was inwardly shocked. The Tiangang Sect was the largest sect in Shuo Province; even a novice who had just entered the cultivation world would know that.

But why would Cultivators of such high status come to the Qin Family Chamber of Commerce? And how would Duan De, as a local Cultivator of Wind and Thunder Prefecture, know the Saint and Saintess of the Tiangang Sect?

However, if Wen Qianqian had participated in the first auction organized by the Qin Family Auction House, she wouldn’t have thought so.

“Saintess Zhao, Saint Ye, allow me to introduce myself, I am Duan De of the Duan Family in Wind and Thunder Prefecture. Are you also here to purchase tokens?”

Zhao Ling was overjoyed, then said, “Fellow Daoist Duan, you mean the emperor decree was purchased from here?”

Duan De asked in confusion, “Don’t you know?”

Ignoring Duan De’s words, Zhao Ling excitedly said to Wen Qianqian, “Palace Master Wen, may I ask how to purchase this emperor decree?”

Wen Qianqian took out an emperor decree from her hand, then said, “Saintess Zhao, is this what you’re referring to?”

The moment she saw the token, Zhao Ling was so excited she almost shed tears. It was truly a case of searching far and wide for the token, only to find it unexpectedly close by.

At this moment, Zhao Ling no longer dared to underestimate Wen Qianqian, who was only at the Undergoing Tribulation Realm. Even her address changed to Palace Master Wen. One might ask, could the background of someone who could produce such a token not be powerful?

Just one point: the force behind Wen Qianqian could definitely crush their Tiangang Sect. After all, Cang Beiming’s dominance back then was deeply imprinted in their hearts.

“Palace Master Wen, how exactly is this token sold? Our Tiangang Sect wishes to purchase a batch.”
