738: It turns out that women's hairstyles are so diverse
After giving his instructions, Gu Qing took Youmeng and left the sect.
"Where are we going?" Youmeng blinked, letting Gu Qing lead her.
"Wanxing City. I'm taking you to eat something delicious."
Wanxing City was located just outside the Star God Sect's mountain gate. Controlled by the Star God Sect, it gathered many top powers from the Origin Continent who set up commercial buildings and auction houses there.
Almost every day, treasures were auctioned or trade fairs were held to exchange precious items.
Wanxing City was a veritable treasure trove, attracting countless experts and prodigies daily to buy and trade desired treasures.
Gu Qing led her into the Pavilion of Treasures, arriving at the Women's Cultivator Pavilion.
"Show me the most expensive jewelry you have here."
The maid was stunned. She looked at Gu Qing, then at Youmeng, and said excitedly, "Divine Son, please come this way..."
They arrived at a dazzling display counter. Every treasure within the formation light spheres was a rare and precious item, a top-grade Sixth-Tier Dao Artifact.
"Divine Son, Divine Daughter, this is the Flowing Rainbow Jade Hairpin. It has one hundred and eight interconnected spirit-gathering formations carved into it, which can assist the owner in absorbing spirit energy and purifying spirit power."
"In addition, it also has three thousand sets of defensive linked formations and three hundred offensive formation patterns carved into it, allowing for endless transformations and unparalleled destructive power..."
The maid held a dazzling jade hairpin and introduced it tirelessly.
However, when she mentioned the price, her tone immediately softened: "Its selling price is three hundred million innate spirit crystals."
"Wrap it up!"
"This is a hair ornament set, priced at one billion innate spirit crystals."
"Wrap it up."
"These are... bracelets, hand chains, ankle chains..."
"Wrap them up, wrap them all up..."
Gu Qing didn't even listen to the prices. As long as he thought they looked good, he took them all.
However... when it came time to pay, even with Gu Qing's immense wealth, he was startled.
It actually cost over twenty billion innate spirit crystals.
Gu Qing was numb.
He found it somewhat unbelievable, his first reaction being that the little maid was cheating him.
After a careful calculation, Gu Qing silently paid, deeply shocked.
So... women's jewelry had so many varieties.
Just hair ornaments alone included hairpins, clasps, combs, rings, hairpins with dangling ornaments, phoenix coronets, elaborate headwear, hair ornaments, flat hairpins, and hair combs.
There were also bracelets, hand chains, ankle chains, pendants, charms, and so on... He hadn't known until he counted, and the sheer number of items, totaling several hundred, was astonishing.
And this was with many pieces of jewelry not fully purchased. If he had bought everything, Gu Qing couldn't imagine how much it would cost.
A faint smile appeared on Youmeng's exquisite face. Her usually stern features gained a touch of alluring charm with that smile.
Actually, she didn't care for jewelry, but since Gu Qing liked it, then she liked it too.
"I'm rich, I'm rich..." The little maid's face was flushed with excitement.
She received a commission for every piece of jewelry Gu Qing bought.
With a total price of over twenty billion, she could at least get over a billion.
This was simply a windfall from heaven!
The little maid looked at Gu Qing with shining eyes, thinking, "Where did this naive Divine Scion come from? Spending so many innate spirit crystals to please a goddess, he's probably going to be beaten to death by his parents when he goes back."
"Take me to see the immortal dresses..." Gu Qing put away all the jewelry and said calmly.
It didn't matter how many innate spirit crystals it cost; he had to make his foster father look beautiful.
"Ah..."
"Oh, oh, oh!!!"
"Divine Son, Divine Daughter, please come this way."
The little maid was dizzy from the sudden happiness, walking with a spring in her step.
"I always devoutly worship the God of Wealth, bowing to him three times and kowtowing nine times daily. Today, it is my turn to get rich..." the little maid thought excitedly.
As expected, Gu Qing bought dozens of Sixth-Tier Dao Artifact immortal dresses, spending over thirty billion innate spirit crystals in total.
The little maid seriously suspected that this was not Gu Qing's purchasing power, but rather the Pavilion of Treasures limiting Gu Qing's purchasing power.
If the Pavilion of Treasures had Dao Artifacts above the Sixth-Tier, Gu Qing would definitely buy them, right?
Unfortunately, Sacred Artifacts were true ultimate treasures, used as the foundation of a sect, and could not be purchased with innate spirit crystals.
The little maid sent Gu Qing and Youmeng off with a big smile, watching their retreating figures and thinking, "They are truly a perfect match, a pair of immortal companions made for each other. But, will this young man actually not be beaten to death when he goes back?"
"Xiao Hong, congratulations on your fortune!"
The other maids immediately gathered around, their envy, jealousy, and hatred practically overflowing from their eyes.
That was a commission of over five billion innate spirit crystals.
If she used it sparingly, it would be enough for Xiao Hong to cultivate to the Divine Emperor Sixth-Tier realm.
And Xiao Hong got this huge sum just by talking. How could they not be envious, jealous, and hateful?
If it weren't for the Pavilion of Treasures strictly forbidding fighting over customers, they would have already shown their various abilities.
"Not at all!"
Xiao Hong's expression changed, and she said with a fawning smile, "I just got lucky, I'm nowhere near as good as you sisters."
"Xiao Hong..."
"Sister Xiao Qing, I have something to do, talk to you later."
..."Such immense wealth. It seems she really is the Dao Companion chosen by Master for his beloved son, and her background must be extraordinary."
Yun Youzi looked down from above, his gaze piercing through the void, watching the two shop frantically. He let out a bitter laugh and shook his head.
"Master still dotes on her son as always, but little does she know, a jade not carved cannot become a vessel. Doting on a child is like killing a child."
"Junior Brother's words are absolutely correct." The Heavenly Beings nodded.
The Thirty-six Heavenly Star Sons were spoiled beyond measure by the Starry Sacred Mother, developing an arrogant attitude, even daring to confront Heavenly Beings.
Mere Saints, no matter how numerous, even with the enhancement of magic treasures and array artifacts, were no match for a Heavenly Being in a single encounter.
And Gu Qing was even more arrogant than the Thirty-six Heavenly Star Sons, but he was indeed strong.
"Senior Brother, it's not a solution to keep peeking like this..."
"Junior Brother, we have already let Master down by remaining in seclusion. If we act, will Master spare us? You don't want us to be killed by Master's wrath, do you?"
Ziwei Emperor interrupted him, saying in a deep voice.
Yun Youzi was silent for a moment, then smiled, "Senior Brother is right, it was my oversight. I'll handle this matter."
Everyone sneered inwardly. Who couldn't say nice words?
Wanting them to be the trailblazers while he hid behind the scenes to reap the benefits? There was no such good thing in this world.
...Gu Qing used his Dao Pupil to scan Yun Youzi and the others hidden in the void, feeling a moment of speechlessness.
He really didn't understand what Yun Youzi was dawdling for.
Wouldn't it be better to just send people to assassinate him?
Anyway, in the end, it all came down to strength to decide the winner. Why hide and sneak around, making an unnecessary fuss?
If it weren't for the need to draw out the person behind Yun Youzi, Gu Qing would have already wanted to charge in with his Qi Shi blade.
Actually, what Gu Qing didn't know was that it wasn't that Yun Youzi didn't want to, but that the Starry Sacred Mother had long held immense authority in their hearts, and they were too afraid of her.
That's why they had to be so cautious.
They wanted to cause trouble, but they were also afraid of trouble, afraid of being resented by the Starry Sacred Mother. No one wanted to be the first to act.
So they all held onto a lucky psychology, hoping the other party would make a move, so that even if they failed, there would still be room for recovery.
Yun Youzi had not forgotten that Cang Yu, Gu Jun, Ni Xiao, and Tian Xu had all been defeated by the Starry Sacred Mother.
He was a Master God, but he couldn't even defeat a single Dao-thought avatar of the Starry Sacred Mother.
Under such circumstances, how could he dare to show his face?
Moreover, he didn't want to be an enemy of the Starry Sacred Mother at all.
He just wanted to force the Starry Sacred Mother to re-accept them.
Although the methods were a bit extreme, there was no other way.
Only by making the Starry Sacred Mother see a crisis would she remember them.
At least, they had value in use.
They were not useless trash.
"It seems I can only ask him to act," Yun Youzi sighed.
"Junior Brother should have done so earlier."
Everyone's faces showed joy.
"Then let's go together..."
Everyone's smiles instantly froze on their faces. Yun Youzi sneered inwardly, flicked his sleeve, swept up everyone, and tore through space to leave the spot.
"Are you confident you can track them without being discovered?" Gu Qing transmitted to Youmeng.
"Don't worry, as long as I don't want to be, no one can find me."
Youmeng possessed the power of illusion, distinguishing between reality and falsehood, and her Qi Shi blade was unparalleled in its destructive power. She was the world's top assassin.
Even the Son of Destiny, Ye Yi, who possessed the Dao Lord realm, couldn't detect her and had his spiritual intelligence severed by her blade.
