Chapter 54 Looking For Treasures in Market
Long Ming nodded. " What do you know about the Black Pearl City?"
Meng Zhi nodded as spoke. " You know, Black Pearl City is an ancient city, almost even older than the Holy Qilin Empire. It was right next to Westward Bay, which is connected to the Thousand Island Ring."
" The Second Heavenly Emperor of Four Season Valley captured the Black Pearl City from the Tribe of Sea Folks. From then, it was a vassal city of the Four Season Valley."
" However, After Four Season Valley got weakened, the Black Pearl City acted independently and lessened the flow of resources. Not to mention, They have gotten more rebellious past few years and gotten close to the Imperial Family of Holy Qilin Empire."
" Deep Sea Iron is a precious resource to forge weapons and treasures. No matter what, we need it. But it is hard to snatch such a big meat pie alone." Meng Zhi sighed.
" Hmm, Then what is the problem? Why Lan Family is hostile toward us?"
" Hostile?" Meng Zhi gave a cold laugh. " Lan Family was once a subsidiary family of Four Seasons Valley. They got help from us when crisis loomed on them."
" However, when they saw Four Seasons Valley got weakened, they took the chance and broke ties with us and took away the entire Black Pearl City. Those bastards, they forced us to sign a treaty as equal partners."
" We can\'t use brute force?" Long Ming sighed. Meng Zhis hook her heard when she heard that.
" We can\'t. Because if we do, the other sects might use this chance to attack Black Pearl City as well. The Holy Qilin Empire and Blissful Heaven Temple, even the Sky Martial Tower, they are waiting for such a chance."
Long Ming took a deep breath as he sighed. " This is such a messy situation. Grand Elder really thinks that I can handle it on my own. Are you sure she is not sending me to my death?"
Meng Zhi let out a light grin. " Perhaps? Who knows? But she was right. The Deep Sea Iron is very important for us.
Long Ming sighed as he nodded. " Very well. But before I depart, I need all information about the Lan Family. And, I am sure Sister Lan is an expert regarding that."
" Oh, I am flattered, Little brother." Meng Zhi smiled when she heard Long Ming.
" I need the smallest details of the Lan Family, about their important members, their hobbies, likes, and dislikes, where they go and come, I need everything."
Meng Zhi nodded as she got up. " Two days, Give me two days and I will prepare everything for you."
" En, Sister Meng, I wanted to ask you something." Long Ming suddenly spoke. " Those four… Why did you send them to me?"
Meng Zhi grinned. " Why shouldn\'t I? You are a healthy young man, Little brother. Sex is a very good way to let out the pent up frustration, no? You should do it often."
" Erm, I thought you might be… disappointed that I gave in to my urges." Long Ming laughed awkwardly.
" Why should I?" Meng Zhi shrugged. " Rather than that, I am surprised that you managed to keep yourself calm till now.:
" Well, Staying in a garden and not smelling the fragrance of flowers is a waste, no?"
With a giggle, she left the room. Long Ming sighed as he finished eating. As he was about to get up, the door flung open as he saw Mu Qinglian entering the room.
" Ah, Senior Sister, You are here." Long Ming got up as he greeted Mu Qinglian.
" I guess you are free now? Or, You wish to spend some more time here?" Mu Qinglian\'s tone was placid as she looked at Long Ming. Ming Ming chuckled.
" Naturally, I am free. Why? Does senior sister need some help?"
Mu Qinglian nodded. " Me and Luo Yingying are going for a treasure auction. I wonder if you can tag along with us?"
" An auction? Sure." Long Ming pondered as he nodded. He long waited to see some unusual treasures and items. Since he is in the world of immortals, naturally he wanted to explore it.
" Very good. Now, get ready and come with us."
Long Ming wore a black robe that was tightly fitting his body. Looking at Mu Qinglian he smiled as he gestured. " Well, Let\'s go."
When Mu Qinglian and Long Ming walking in the Eternal Spring Tower, Mu QInglian\'s face twitched when she heard various gossip.
" Hah, Do you know? Although Young Master Long looks so handsome and lean, his thing down there is a massive beast."
" I heard he fought alone and knocked down those four girls. You know them, they were simply the best."
" Hehe, You guys know nothing. I and some other sisters peeked into that room yesterday night. Good heaven, Young Master Long was so vigorous."
" Huhuhu, I got wet just by watching them. Such intensity, such passion… Mmm."
Mu Qinglian couldn\'t endure anymore as she glanced at Long Ming with her side eyes. " What exactly you were doing last night?"
Long Ming was startled as he coughed lightly. " Uh, I was… Giving some teaching to some members of Eternal Spring Tower."
" Oh, And what sort of lessons were those?" Mu Qinglian raised her voice.
" I was naturally teaching them the unification of Yin and Yang energy, the impact of two energy on body and mind. The discussion was so wonderful that we did some demonstration of my theories."
Long Ming\'s expression didn\'t change the slightest when he answered Mu Qinglian.
" Huh? Senior Brother Long, I also want to learn the mysteries of Yin and Yang."
Luo Yingying was nearby when she heard Long Ming\'s answer. " Maybe, With your insights, I can achieve some breakthrough in my path of rune inscription?"
" Ermm… About that." Long Ming almost choked when he heard Luo Yingying.
Teaching her the way of Yin and Yang? If he really taught her, He can\'t guarantee her dao of talisman, but her virginity will definitely break.
" Bah! Shameless!"
Mu Qinglian snorted when she saw the lecherous expression on the Long Ming\'s face.
" And you! You don\'t need to learn anything from him. Just focus on your cultivation first."
" Uwuuuu, Sister Qinglian, Why you must bully me?" Luo Yingying whimpered when Mu Qinglian pinched her cheeks.
" Anyway, We are going to the auction of Hundred Treasure Pavilion and he is coming as well." Mu Qinglian spoke to Luo Yingying as she sat in the flying carriage.
" Hehe, Very well. It\'s going to be fun!" Luo Yingying nodded as she smiled at Long Ming.
Although it was named as Hundred Treasure Pavilion, it was big as a marketplace. Since it was auction day, there was also a temporary treasure market opened by Hundred Treasure Pavilion outside.
The items that came for the auction were simply too much in number. They needed to find the best out of them and put them on auction. Naturally, the vendors also see this auction as a chance to sell their items outside as well.
" Hurry up! An Earth grade cultivation technique only at 10,000 middle grade Spirit Stones!"
" A supreme treasure used by an Ancient Lord Realm Monarch! Only at 10,000 High grade Spirit Stones!"
" A pill of longevity! A single pill can grant you additional 500 years of lifespan! Hurry up and don\'t miss the chance! Only at 50,000 High grade spirit stones!"
When Long Ming, Mu Qinglian, and Luo Yingying appeared in the market, they instantly attracted some attention. Especially Long Mig, who was walking with his Desolate Immortal Aura.
His black colored robe enhanced his handsomeness more and he radiated a faint ethereal aura, that can affect reality itself. Not to mention, Mu Qinglian who was using a veil to cover her face. Even with a veil, even a blind can see her beauty. Luo Yingying\'s beauty isn\'t much low from her either.
" Damn, Who is that young man? Why I never heard of such handsome Young Master?"
" I think that girl is Four Season Valley\'s Saintess! They must be here for the auction."
Luo Yingying\'s eyes darted around as she saw various treasures on both sides of the street. " Senior Brother, Should I purchase some treasures here?"
Mu Qinglian shook her head. " Yingying, We are already running tight on budget. We can\'t buy useless things. Not to mention, most of the things here were either fake or different from what they are told."
" B-But, I remember! Last time, Someone actually got a Dao Crystal of an Ancient Lord Monarch. Not to mention, Some Royal grade treasures and supreme pills also appear in the outer market sometimes."
" Ahh, The temptation of gambling…" Long Ming chuckled. " Well, Since there is still time before the auction, Why don\'t we take a stroll through the market."
" Yay! Senior brother agrees!"
Mu Qinglian sighed when she heard Long Ming. " Fine, But no overspending, alright?"
" Hehe, I think I should buy some formation flags and talisman equipment." Luo Yingying grinned as she dragged Long Ming away.
Long Ming became amused when he saw the treasures across the street. The three volumes of Records of Myriad Treasures which he bought from God of Wealth System finally got their moment to shine.
\' Now, Let\'s see, Where are my precious treasures hiding.\'
Long Ming\'s Heavenly Revelation Eyes opened as his vision spread across the area.
