127: Departure! The Ye Family in the Imperial Capital

“If you don’t have time to go back, that’s fine, Big Shot Ye Kong,” Lin Ya’er said quickly when she saw Ye Kong not speaking, thinking he couldn’t make the time.

“No, I have time to go back,” Ye Kong said with a slight smile.

Hearing this, Lin Ya’er also breathed a sigh of relief. She had been looking at Ye Kong’s expression and thought he didn’t want to go back.

“By the way, Ye Kong, I saw you seemed to be going out just now. Is something the matter?” Lin Ya’er asked, a little curious.

“It’s nothing much, it’s just that Liting’s real birthday is coming up, isn’t it? I was thinking of going to the Imperial City to celebrate her birthday with her, and before that, I definitely need to buy a birthday gift,” Ye Kong said with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin Ya’er’s face showed some surprise.

Ever since that day, she had gone back and looked up information on the Ye Family of the Imperial City.

After checking, Lin Ya’er finally understood what the Ye Family of the Imperial City represented.

What a powerful force it was.

It could be said that the Ye Family was one of the four families standing at the very top of the Imperial City, and there were even divine powerhouses within the Family.

And Ye Liting was the daughter of the second-generation eldest son of the Ye Family of the Imperial City; her status was even more noble.

Originally, Lin Ya’er had been very curious about what kind of background it was.

That their Family’s servants even looked down on Big Shot Ye Kong, with his Prodigy-level talent.

Only after that day did she understand why.

But now… Lin Ya’er glanced at Ye Kong. She thought to herself, Big Shot Ye Kong has now become a Divine Son, and also a Titled Martial Emperor.

He was even capable of fighting 25 Martial Saints in the Martial Emperor Realm, killing ten Martial Saint powerhouses, and standing firm against a Venerable without defeat!

With such peerless Prodigy-level talent, even the Ye Family of the Imperial City couldn’t possibly treat him as nothing anymore, could they?

Ye Kong looked at Lin Ya’er, who was deep in thought. He didn’t intend to disturb her.

Instead, he prepared to leave and head to the commercial street to buy a birthday gift.

Seeing Ye Kong about to leave, Lin Ya’er finally came back to her senses and quickly said, “Big Shot Ye Kong, can I go with you? After all, girls know best what other girls like.”

Hearing this, Ye Kong thought it made sense and replied calmly, “Alright!”

Afterward, Lin Ya’er followed Ye Kong towards the commercial street.

Along the way, the two attracted countless gazes, especially Ye Kong.

His astonishing performance in that war had spread throughout Wuji City.

Some girls even looked at Ye Kong with infatuated expressions. If they hadn’t mistakenly thought Lin Ya’er was Ye Kong’s girlfriend, they might have rushed forward already.

With their pace, Ye Kong and Lin Ya’er quickly arrived at the commercial street.

As they walked through, Ye Kong looked very serious, picking out a birthday gift for Ye Liting.

Lin Ya’er, following behind, watched this scene with a hint of envy.

She thought to herself, Ye Liting is too fortunate. Big Shot Ye Kong usually looks at others with an indifferent expression.

She had never seen Big Shot Ye Kong so carefully pick out a gift for a girl.

“What do you think of this?” Ye Kong picked out a purple jade pendant from a stall.

Just by looking at the fluctuations, one could tell it was a Low Grade Profound Rank weapon. He turned to ask Lin Ya’er.

But before Lin Ya’er could answer, Ye Kong directly put down the Low Grade Profound Rank jade pendant.

Then he shook his head and muttered to himself, “No, small stalls ultimately don’t have very valuable items. I still need to go to a shop to buy something.”

Seeing Ye Kong like this, Lin Ya’er became even more envious.

She thought to herself, how wonderful it would be if Big Shot Ye Kong could one day pick out items for her like this.

After putting down the jade pendant, Ye Kong prepared to walk towards a shop, and Lin Ya’er followed closely behind.

Soon, Ye Kong stopped in front of a Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

As he stepped inside, the sales staff immediately recognized him.

There was no way around it; Ye Kong’s solo battle against 25 foreign Martial Saints had spread throughout Wuji City.

It could be said that among the ordinary citizens of Wuji City, there wasn’t a single person who didn’t recognize Ye Kong.

Given Ye Kong’s status and position, coming to buy items surely meant he was looking for something extremely valuable.

Thinking of this, the three men and three women inside the Hundred Treasures Pavilion immediately rushed forward.

The closest young woman, Pan Yuting, moved the fastest, arriving in front of Ye Kong in an instant.

“Hello, Mr. Ye, what would you like to purchase?” Pan Yuting asked respectfully.

The other five sales staff saw this scene and all pounded their chests and stamped their feet.

They were incredibly frustrated, why couldn’t they have rushed forward faster?

They felt as if hundreds of thousands in commission had been within their grasp, but now it had flown away.

As for Pan Yuting, her face was filled with excitement.

Lin Ya’er, standing by, couldn’t help but sigh inwardly at this scene.

Big Shot Ye Kong is indeed Big Shot Ye Kong; he is popular wherever he goes.

“Do you have anything suitable for a girl, preferably Earth Rank or higher?” Ye Kong asked calmly.

Hearing Ye Kong say he wanted to buy a treasure of Earth Rank or higher, the sales staff were all incredibly surprised.

Treasures of Earth Rank or higher often cost hundreds of millions. This commission wouldn’t be a simple few hundred thousand; it would be one or two million.

Pan Yuting, in particular, swallowed hard at this moment.

After a few seconds, she slowly said, “Mr. Ye, for items of Earth Rank or higher, I cannot make the decision. I will call our manager over for you right now.”

Afterward, Pan Yuting picked up her communicator and dialed a number.

In less than a minute, a somewhat portly middle-aged man with a chubby face hurried over.

His running style was a bit comical.

“Hello, Mr. Ye, what would you like to purchase?” Wang Futai said with a smiling face.

“A gift for a girl, preferably an item of Earth Rank or higher,” Ye Kong said calmly.

“Alright, Big Shot, please follow me,” Wang Futai said, maintaining a constant smile.

Then, he led Ye Kong towards the third floor.

Just by looking at the items in the display cabinets, most were Earth Rank or higher.

It was evident how profound the background of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion was.

Wang Futai then led Ye Kong to a rosewood box.

“Mr. Ye, please look. This is Purple Yang Jade, a High Grade Earth Rank treasure. Not only does it have the effect of nourishing the skin and calming the spirit, but wearing it can also greatly increase Cultivation speed.”

As he spoke, Wang Futai opened the treasure box, revealing a purple jade pendant inside.

As it opened, it also shimmered with purple light, hinting at the extraordinary nature of this jade pendant.

Ye Kong took the jade pendant in his hand and examined it carefully.

Seeing Ye Kong intently examining it, Wang Futai slowly asked, “Mr. Ye, are you satisfied?”

“It’s fine,” Ye Kong replied calmly.

“Alright, Mr. Ye, I will put it away for you,” Wang Futai said, immediately delighted to hear that Ye Kong wanted to buy this treasure.

Pan Yuting, who was following behind, was even more beaming with smiles, because this was a High Grade Earth Rank treasure.

How much commission would she get for selling such a valuable item?

Lin Ya’er, next to Ye Kong, was completely stunned.

One must know that even their City Lord’s Mansion’s most precious treasure was only High Grade Earth Rank.

Yet, Ye Kong was giving a High Grade Earth Rank treasure just as a gift for Ye Liting.

How could Lin Ya’er not be surprised?

“Alright then, Mr. Ye, I will put it away for you. Please follow me downstairs to check out,” Wang Futai said with a smile.

He then walked in front, and the other sales staff looked at the box in Wang Futai’s hand, which was labeled High Grade Earth Rank.

Each of them looked at Pan Yuting with immense envy.

One must know that a High Grade Earth Rank treasure was worth at least several hundred million.

A one percent commission, didn’t that mean Pan Yuting had earned at least a few million from this transaction?

This was even higher than their combined annual salaries, so how could they not be envious?

Their hearts were filled with even more regret, wishing they could slap themselves immediately for not rushing forward faster just now… At this moment, Wang Futai walked to the checkout counter and placed the rosewood box into a Storage Pouch.

Ye Kong also took out the Hundred Treasures Pavilion token he had acquired earlier from his embrace.

Looking at the purple token in his hand, Wang Futai respectfully said to Ye Kong, “Big Shot Ye Kong, the total is 1.03 billion. You have our Hundred Treasures Pavilion’s purple token.

Plus the discount I personally gave you, we’ll round it down and charge you 1 billion.”

“Alright!” Ye Kong took out a black card from his Storage Ring.

Fortunately, he had previously sold all the items he didn’t need from the Storage Rings of those foreign Martial Saints.

Otherwise, the money in his card wouldn’t have been enough to buy this High Grade Earth Rank treasure.

Just as Ye Kong was about to pay.

Meanwhile, on the other side, a young man dressed in academy attire was buying something.

However, the design of his clothing didn’t quite look like the attire of the Great Qin Kingdom.

Ma Yangbo had just finished buying an item and placed it in his Storage Ring when he saw a familiar figure.

Then, his face became incredibly furious.

Because he saw the person he had always liked and pursued was actually shopping with another man.

Subsequently, Ma Yangbo, full of anger, rushed forward quickly.

Ye Kong and Lin Ya’er, who were about to pay, didn’t notice.

Soon, Ma Yangbo blocked the space between them and Wang Futai.

At this moment, Wang Futai’s face was full of doubt. Who was this young man?

Why did he look so aggressive?

And how dare he block in front of Mr. Ye? Did he not know who Mr. Ye was?

At this time, Ye Kong had a calm expression.

He thought for a moment and confirmed that he did not know this guy in front of him.
