571: White Moonlight

"Let's go."

Yao Yubai retracted his gaze, a faint smile playing on his lips, and said to the charming female Cultivator beside him. The two then flew together towards the giant city standing in the center of the island.

In just a moment, Yao Yubai and the Xuan Dao Palace group were flying side by side in the air, a distance away.

"Dong~"

At this moment.

Before the four figures shrouded in gray robes, their true appearances hidden, Qin Wuyou, whose face was cold and devoid of emotion, felt his heart suddenly beat an extra time.

Qin Wuyou frowned slightly, inspecting himself internally, but found no discomfort.

Paying no mind to it, Qin Wuyou, accompanied by four Dao Protectors, entered the giant city under the guidance of the Thousand Island Alliance Cultivators.

High in the distant sky.

After silently watching Qin Wuyou's figure enter the city.

Yao Yubai slowed his pace and entered Yanluo City after Qin Wuyou and his companions.

"Hehe~"

"The aura of a Heavenly Venerate Dao Weapon..."

"What a coincidence..."

"Young Dao Child, you are mine..."

Yao Yubai's smile deepened, seemingly quite pleased.

"Senior Brother, what did you see? Why are you so happy?"

Beside Yao Yubai, Luo Yuanyuan, who was holding his arm, looked at the handsome, elegant man in white beside her with some surprise and asked doubtfully.

"There's a hairpin there, it suits Junior Sister very well. I originally wanted to secretly buy it for you, but I didn't expect you to discover it."

Yao Yubai did not hide the smile on his face. Instead, he pointed towards a spot in the city. Through a window, a plain yet noble azure Spirit Jade Hairpin, emitting a faint precious light, happened to catch Luo Yuanyuan's eye.

"Senior Brother, you really are..."

Luo Yuanyuan's face lit up with joy, then she stomped her foot and said coquettishly.

Yao Yubai chuckled, then led the charming figure beside him into the city and entered the treasure shop.

At the same time.

At the gate of Yanluo City.

Three young, outstanding talents, all with remarkable figures and demeanor, passed through the city gate.

"This is my first time in Yanluo City, and it truly has a unique charm."

Zhou Chuanjian, carrying a broad, heavy sword on his back, exclaimed in wonder.

Every city in the Chaotic Sea seemed larger than those in the Mingyang Realm.

"Heh, you're just inexperienced."

Zhou Chuanqi teased him unceremoniously.

Because the Spirit Treasure Pavilion was holding this appraisal conference, it attracted Cultivators from all directions, bringing many rare and exotic items, leaving the three of them dazzled.

Even Zhou Chuanqi, who was born in the Chaotic Sea and was extraordinary from birth, saw many treasures he had only previously seen in the family's treasure catalog, which made his heart stir.

However, due to several mistakes he had made over the past ten years, a considerable amount of his Spirit Stones had been confiscated, and he was now quite short on funds.

"This... this... this..."

Zhou Chuanqi's two distinct pupils constantly glowed.

He moved through one Spirit Shop and Treasure Pavilion after another.

"Cough~"

"Uh... Chuanfa, Chuanjian..."

"No."

Zhou Chuanqi patted the Storage Pouch at his waist, regretting that it wasn't bulging. Filled with regret, Zhou Chuanqi's black and green eyes turned to the steady, sword-bearing youth and the distinguished, handsome youth beside him.

But before he could speak.

He was gently interrupted by Zhou Chuanfa.

"Uh, I need to buy a gift for Xin'er, so I can't lend it to you either."

The steady, somewhat honest-looking youth carrying a sword touched the broad, heavy sword on his back and said to Zhou Chuanqi with a bit of embarrassment.

"Chuanjian, I have to say a few words to you... What's so good about Xu Xin'er? Isn't she just a favored junior of Immortal Master Nanfeng and Immortal Master Xu, the two Elders...?"

Zhou Chuanqi looked at the somewhat embarrassed Zhou Chuanjian with a look of disappointment, as if he were a piece of iron that couldn't be forged into steel. Immortal Master Nanfeng broke through to Nascent Soul two years ago and was revered as Immortal Master Nanfeng.

And Xu Xin'er was a direct descendant of the two, highly favored by them.

Zhou Chuanqi kept talking until he couldn't continue.

Wherever his gaze fell, everything Zhou Chuanjian wore, used, and accessorized, seemed to have been given by Xu Xin'er, except for that large sword.

"You..."

"I don't know what kind of luck you had, kid."

Zhou Chuanqi lightly cursed Zhou Chuanjian, feeling a mix of melancholy and envy.

To think that he, the most outstanding member of the Zhou Family's Chuan generation, had countless admirers in the Chaotic Sea, yet none like Xu Xin'er.

"Sigh..."

"Never mind, let's go, I can't afford anything anyway."

Zhou Chuanqi walked forward with a dejected expression, looking lonely.

Behind him.

Zhou Chuanfa shook his head helplessly.

Indeed, one cannot judge a book by its cover. When he first met Zhou Chuanqi in the Lower Realm, he exuded such arrogance and confidence. Who would have thought he would have such a personality?

"Chuanqi, how about I give you a little, a small half, or half?"

Zhou Chuanjian caught up, looking at the dejected Zhou Chuanqi with an expression of unbearable pity.

Chuanqi has had a really hard time these past few years, often being punished by the clan.

He heard that luckily, the Young Old Ancestor was comprehending the Old Ancestor's Dao and had been in seclusion in the Floating Island's Thunder Dao Domain for many years. If the Young Old Ancestor emerged from seclusion and found out, the punishment might be even more severe than this.

Alas... Chuanqi has it tough... If I lend Spirit Stones to Chuanqi, Xin'er will definitely support me... Thinking this, Zhou Chuanjian hesitated, then hardened his heart and prepared to hand over half of his Spirit Stones to Zhou Chuanqi.

"You... sigh..."

Zhou Chuanqi looked at Zhou Chuanjian, who seemed reluctant but sincere, and felt even more pain in his heart.

"No."

A moment later, Zhou Chuanqi returned to his original state and spoke with feigned disdain.

"Where's Chuanfa?"

Zhou Chuanqi suddenly asked Zhou Chuanjian beside him.

"There."

Zhou Chuanjian pointed to a spot not far away.

At a small stall, Zhou Chuanfa picked up a five-colored round stone, waved his hand, and more than ten Spirit Stones flew out, entering the vendor's Storage Pouch.

"Hiss! That's too extravagant, Chuanjian, quickly stop him."

Zhou Chuanqi looked pained and nudged Zhou Chuanjian beside him.

"Why don't you go?"

Zhou Chuanjian asked subconsciously.

Zhou Chuanqi fell silent... Deep in his heart, a small figure identical to Zhou Chuanqi sighed towards the sky, his eyes filled with endless melancholy. He couldn't even fool Zhou Chuanjian anymore... Seven days later.

In the center of Yanluo City.

Inside a massive building.

The three figures of Zhou Chuanqi sat in a curtain-less private room on the third floor, their eyes fixed on the central circular platform below.

"This treasure is the Moon God precious bead, originating from the East Sea. It can absorb the essence of the moon and transform it into Jade Dew Nectar, which can beautify, prolong life, and stabilize cultivation. It is an invaluable treasure. Please, Fellow Daoists, appraise it."

On the central circular platform.

A middle-aged man gently waved his hand, opening a treasure box. From within, a moon-white luminous pearl rose from the box.

"Just a somewhat mystical White Moonlight Pearl."

The three of Zhou Chuanqi merely glanced at it before retracting their gazes. The Zhou Family was currently the leader of the Thousand Island Alliance.

The rare and exotic items offered by various forces in the Chaotic Sea were not few.

This White Moonlight Pearl came from a small clan in the eastern part of the Chaotic Sea, the White Moonlight Clan.

The three of them had seen such items frequently within their clan, so they were not particularly interested.

However, for other Cultivators who had not seen this item, it could indeed be considered a treasure.
