Chapter 244 Jiuyan Sky-burn Skill

As the largest trading bank in Zhongzhou, Myriad Immortals Pavilion had three major halls. The major one was the auction house, the second was the free-trading hall, which was for people to sell things at some stalls or trade items. The third was the consignment hall. The seller set the price and gave the items to the Myriad Immortals Pavilion to sell.

There were three floors in the consignment hall. The price of the goods on the first floor was from one thousand to ten thousand stones. On the second floor, the price was no higher than one hundred thousand stones. On the third floor, the price was topless. As long as you pay enough fees, you could sell things at ten million stones.

Being led by the maid, Xiao Chen came directly to the second floor. There were many people who are carefully selecting goods that suited them with the waiters. Many people want to see if they could find a good treasure at a low price.

After passing a corner, Xiao Chen heard the sound of arguments. He looked over and found an old man with disheveled hair and a dirty face quarreling with a young waiter of Myriad Immortals Pavilion.

The young waiter's face was full of bitter smiles. "Old gentleman, this is the eighth time you have gone to the wrong place. This is the consignment hall. If you are looking for someone to trade in person, please go to the free-trading hall, okay?"

The old man narrowed his eyes and said seriously, "Young man! You know nothing. I'm looking for the right person. Those ordinary folks are far below my standard."

The waiter smiled bitterly again. "Old gentleman, I should take you to the free-trading hall. People really can't trade directly here."

It's said that the Myriad Immortals Pavilion was supported by several ancient families. Their strength was unfathomable. Was this old man looking for troubles? Xiao Chen felt it a little bit interesting and walked over.

The old man saw him approaching and narrowed his eyes. He then walked around Xiao Chen several times.

"Oh, yeah! It's incredible! Young people, I see your bones and body are incredible. You are the one in the ten thousand. The Annihilation Times is coming, and the peace of the world is on you. I have the Jiuyan Sky-burn Skill..."

At this time, many other buyers on the second floor were also attracted here. Murong Xian'er gently pulled his sleeve and whispered in his ear, "Brother Xiao Chen, this old uncle is a liar at first glance. Let's go and ignore him..."

Before she could finish, the old man suddenly came over and said seriously, "Little girl! Although you are not a mortal, you can't talk nonsense..."

Murong Xian'er was scared by his unkempt appearance and quickly hid behind Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen kept her behind him and said to the old man, "Old gentleman, don't scare her. Tell me, how much is this Jiutian Burning Skill?"

"Wrong! It's the Jiuyan Sky-burn Skill! Sky-burn Skill!" The old man corrected him and then handed over a crumpled book, saying seriously, "Young man, you and I are destined to meet here. I will only charge you 10,000 Spirit Stones for this priceless treasure."

Xiao Chen nodded and took it over. He was afraid that this crumpled book would turn into ashes if he used some strength. The waiter aside hurriedly said, "Sir, this is the consignment hall. You can't trade..."

Before he could finish, the maid next to Xiao Chen winked at him, and the waiter said no more.

Xiao Chen took out a piece of level 5 Spirit Stones. "Old gentleman, there are not many destined people like me after all. If you want to sell something next time, go to the free-trading hall. Don't make things difficult for this little brother."

The old man took over the Spirit Stones and said seriously, "Young man, you are right. I'm leaving then." After saying that, he turned and left. Far away, he sang, "Even though there are countless fortune and fate in the world, it is difficult to find the destined person..." He sounded like he was some kind of sage or Immortal.

Xiao Chen turned his head and said to the waiter, "The old gentleman's fee is on me. You don't have to worry."

"Yes..." The waiter lowered his head and said nothing.

The people around left. "Let's go. This person is either mad or fool."

Murong Xian'er pursed her lips and said, "That old uncle is clearly a liar. Brother Xiao Chen still chose to be fooled, humph! You fool!"

Xiao Chen shook his head with a smile and said nothing.

Then, they hung around for a while, and there was really nothing for them on the second floor. As for the third floor, the things there were too expensive, and he did not have enough Spirit Stones. So they didn't go upstairs. He asked the two sisters behind him, "Do you have anything else you need? I still have more than 30,000 Spirit Stones."

Qingluan clasped her hands and said, "There is no need to worry about me, my Lord."

Xiao Chen nodded. When he walked over a corner, he looked up and saw a pair of purple-green moon blades. The name was "Purple-green Blood-cutting Blades". The price was 30,000 Spirit Stones. He thought that they used this kind of blade weapons. One green and one purple just matched the two sisters. He said to the maid beside him, "Miss, would you please take the pair of blades off? I want to have a look."

The maid smiled and said, "Okay, just a second, Mr. Li." She then clapped her hands as two waiters came immediately. The two men found a bamboo ladder and spent a lot of effort to take off the Purple-green Blood-cutting Blades.

Xiao Chen took it over. Although the blades were not big, they were still quite heavy. There is no trace of shadow when wielding the blades. It's indeed not ordinary and worth even 100,000 Spirit Stones. He said, "I'll buy this pair of blades."

"Okay, thank Mr. Li for buying." The maid smiled.

Xiao Chen nodded and handed the green blade to Qingluan and the purple to Ziyun'er. The two people took over the blades and said, "Thank you, my Lord."

Then, Qingluan immediately put away the blade, while Ziyun'er carefully looked at her blade and smiled, seemingly very fond of it.

The auction was over. Xiao Chen followed the maid to the former pavilion. He waited for a moment, and Chu Meng came in and smiled. "Sorry for the waiting, Mr. Li."

Xiao Chen raised his hands and said, "Miss Chu Meng is being polite."

"The other two Reborning Pills were sold at the price of 130,000 and 210,000 stones respectively, and we will pay for Mr. Li as soon as possible."

When Chu Meng was speaking, she took a white porcelain cup which was steaming from the plate in the hand of a maid and handed it to Xiao Chen.

"It's okay." Xiao Chen smiled lightly and took the cup, looking into it. What was this steaming light brown thing? It smelled bitter. Was it a soup-medicine? Why did she let him drink medicine?

Seeing that she gently took a sip of it, Xiao Chen also took a sip. But he almost spurted out instantly. What was this? Why was it bitterer than medicine?

Chu Meng smiled gently. "Mr. Li, have you been to the West Continent?"

Xiao Chen smiled. “I have been studying in the West Continent for three years and just came back recently."

Chu Meng went to the window and looked at the sorrowful scene outside. She sighed, "The snow on Alpine Mountains are constant all year round. I heard that it can compete with our Kunlun Mountains. I don't know if the Duolong Valley still has maple leaves. I have not been there for many years."

Xiao Chen smiled lightly. He had never even heard of these weird place names, not to mention going there. He changed the topic and said, "I don't go to these places very often. By the way, Miss Chu Meng, who is the one who bought the ancient method today? Can you tell me?"

Chu Meng walked back and smiled. "Sorry, Mr. Li, we need to keep the secret for every guest. Yours too. Even if the emperor of the Xiyue State comes, we will not tell your identity."

Xiao Chen nodded. Since she said this, it's not good to continue to ask questions. She said that she would not tell his identity even if the emperor came. It seemed that she was implying something else.

At this time, the door opened as a maid came in, whispering, "The guest wants to meet Mr. Li."

Chu Meng nodded. "Let him in."

After a short time, a black-cloaked man came in. Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes. "Who is this person?"

The man came to him and said, "My friend, do you need this?" The voice was a little old and hoarse. He handed out a pendant, which was the Purple Crystal Pendant in the auction. Murong Xian'er screamed.

It turned out that this person was the seller of this pendant. Although this man's voice was hoarse, Xiao Chen saw that his hands were delicate. Obviously, this was a young man. Xiao Chen said, "Indeed. You can tell me the price."

"It's our first meet, and we can make a friend. This Purple Crystal Pendant is just right for this girl, and I will give it to her for free."

Murong Xian'er was delighted and ran over, grabbing the pendant in her hand.

"Xian'er, don't be rude." Xiao Chen wanted to stop, but it's too late. He turned and said, "Thank you, my friend. You may talk about what you need."

"The prescription. I want the prescription for the Reborning Pill."
