X-Dragon Era

Generally speaking, whether it was a city or a village, flying dragons directly inside was not allowed. They had to land at the designated dragon landing sites outside the city or village. Otherwise, it would be considered a provocation and the perpetrator would face the wrath of the entire village or town.

This was Mega City, under the joint protection of the Ten Great Families. Such actions were a direct provocation against all Ten Great Families. But... did a power truly exist in this world that could provoke the Ten Great Families simultaneously? It was completely impossible!

While everyone was secretly in doubt, masters from the Ten Great Families made their entrance, but after only a slight contact, they all quickly retreated...

As everyone was still in a state of uncertainty, a figure swiftly swept onto the central tower of Yi Bao Market, and at the same time, an authoritative voice rang out, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for interrupting your pleasure, but... the matter is urgent, and I ask for your understanding for any offense caused."

At this point, the person paused briefly before continuing, "My family\'s young master suffered severe injuries a while ago, and his life hangs by a thread. A few days ago... I heard that a Divine Dragon Fruit had appeared here, so I rushed over. If the friend who exchanged for the Divine Dragon Fruit is willing to trade, I am willing to exchange it for an Eighth Grade Dragon Creation Stone."

Facing this guy\'s words, Xin Yun scornfully curled his lip. He knew that the fact that the Divine Dragon Fruit was in his possession couldn\'t be hidden, considering there were so many witnesses at the time of the exchange. Since it was so, he had no intention of hiding it.

After pondering for a moment, Xin Yun squeezed through the crowd and spoke in a deep voice, "My friend, you are being insincere. The value of an Eighth Grade Dragon Creation Stone is indeed comparable to that of a Divine Dragon Fruit, but... while Divine Dragon Fruit is priceless, life is invaluable.

If we were to trade at an equal value, it would not be your turn, as I would have already traded it away."

"Hm?" Surprised, the authoritative middle-aged man clearly did not expect a child to step forward, but he quickly regained his composure and said without hesitation, "I have no time to dawdle here. Wasting one second could mean more danger for our young master. How about this... I\'ll exchange a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone with you.

If it\'s not acceptable, that means you are deliberately making things difficult for us!"

"Wow!" At these words, everyone exclaimed. A Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone! That was a treasure beyond price. Was this guy really willing to part with it?

As everyone exclaimed, Xin Yun nodded with a smile and accepted the offer on the spot. Although the man had not mentioned his family name from the beginning until now, how could Xin Yun not know what stature the man represented?

Without hesitation, Xin Yun declared, "Well then, since you are so generous, I will not say much more. Here is the Divine Dragon Fruit. Where is your Dragon Creation Stone?"

Watching the Divine Dragon Fruit in Xin Yun\'s hands, the middle-aged man was very reluctant, but he truly didn\'t dare delay. The Divine Dragon Fruit had to be obtained at all costs, or else his family would be cut off from their lineage, a burden he couldn\'t possibly bear. If anything went wrong, his entire family might have to pay the ultimate price.

This time, the head of the family was determined to acquire the Divine Dragon Fruit, so much so that he had even brought out a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone. Of course... he could have bargained more, but if any delay on his part led to the young master\'s death, the enormity of the guilt would be indescribable.

Quickly, Xin Yun handed over the Divine Dragon Fruit in the Cold Jade Box, and in return, the man handed over a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone packed in a wooden box. The trade was officially completed.

Watching this miraculous scene unfold, Yi Luo Xiang stood agape. Was this the miracle he wanted her to witness? Indeed... this was a miracle. If this didn\'t qualify as a miracle, then there were no miracles in this world.

One Divine Dragon Fruit had been exchanged for a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone. The profit involved... was beyond numerical expression, all because a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone was priceless. And when something is priceless, how could one even begin to calculate profit?

As Yi Luo Xiang pondered, the austere middle-aged man had already quickly handed the Divine Dragon Fruit over to an elder. After taking the box, the elder reached out with one hand, and in an instant... a violent wind howled, countless snow-white feathers swirling wildly in the sky. Then, with a sudden gathering motion, an Eagle Dragon took form and appeared beneath the elder\'s feet.

The majestic middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "Elder Lu, please ensure the Divine Dragon Fruit is delivered back as soon as possible. Our speed is too slow; you go ahead first."

Upon hearing the middle-aged man\'s words, the elder nodded, and then everyone felt a gust of wind. In the next moment... the elder was gone without a trace, and when they looked up, at the distant horizon, within the fiery red sun, a small black dot appeared in an instant and then disappeared in a flash...

"Holy shit!" everyone exclaimed upon witnessing this scene. Even Xin Yun couldn\'t help but sigh. Was this once the King of Speedy Sky—Lu Bufan? Such speed was indeed at the limit. Even a jet plane on Earth would seem like a snail in comparison to him.

Shaking his head, Xin Yun stopped his reflections and looked at the relaxed-looking authoritative middle-aged man, and called out loudly, "Sir, don\'t be in such a hurry to leave. There\'s something I\'d like to ask you."

"Hm?" The middle-aged man looked at Xin Yun curiously. Initially, he didn\'t want to pay attention, but he was also curious about the child\'s background. A kid so young stepping forward to negotiate—where were his elders?

Driven by the desire to know, the middle-aged man naturally agreed to Xin Yun\'s request. He jumped down from the tower and landed beside Xin Yun. After giving Xin Yun a few glances up and down, he asked with confusion, "Little brother, where are your parents?"

At the middle-aged man\'s question, Xin Yun gave a wry smile and shook his head, but he didn\'t directly answer. Instead, he calmly said, "My question isn\'t important. What\'s important is that I would like to know how old your young master is this year and what caused his injury?"

Upon hearing Xin Yun\'s words, the middle-aged man\'s eyebrows furrowed tightly. Just as he was about to get angry, Xin Yun continued, "Don\'t be in a hurry. I just want to make a deal with you. If we can make this deal, I guarantee you\'ll earn great merit that will shoot your status within the family sky-high!"

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to respond, Xin Yun quickly continued, "Don\'t rush to doubt me. From the expression you had when you spoke earlier, it seems that your young master\'s injury isn\'t a secret. It\'ll just take a bit of your time, but what you could gain is the opportunity to elevate your status!"

After hearing Xin Yun\'s words, the middle-aged man gave Xin Yun a few strange glances and then shook his head, saying, "Alright, it\'s indeed no secret. My young master was injured by a Nine-Eyed Fox Dragon while on a training expedition."

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Xin Yun quickly took up the conversation, "What is your young master\'s power level? And what about the Nine-Eyed Fox Dragon\'s strength?"

In response to Xin Yun\'s questions, the middle-aged man replied subconsciously, "My young master has a strength of Gold Six Star, and that Nine-Eyed Fox Dragon is at the level of Crystal Nine Star. Why...?"

Hearing the middle-aged man\'s words, Xin Yun nodded with satisfaction and chuckled, "Going out for cultivation, safety comes first. Without sufficient defense, such incidents are inevitable, alas..."

Hearing Xin Yun\'s words, the middle-aged man frowned and said, "Do I need you to tell me that? But my young master was already wearing Amethyst-level equipment. It\'s just a pity he couldn\'t make full use of the Amethyst equipment\'s potential, otherwise..."

With a slight chuckle, Xin Yun shook his head and said, "If he could fully utilize the Amethyst equipment\'s power, he would almost be approaching Diamond-level mastery, right? With the power your family wields, do you even need to rely on Amethyst equipment?"

Hearing Xin Yun\'s words, the middle-aged man frowned and said testily, "Is such an obvious thing really coming from you? But what can we do about it?"
