It wasn't until dusk that Yan Yue finally woke up from his slumber!

  At this time, Wang Chen clearly noticed the change in Flame Moon, his body grew bigger by a circle, more majestic than before! The color of the fur on his body was even deeper, and his tail had grown several centimeters longer. The bright red crescent moon at the end of his tail had also grown significantly larger. Everything indicated that Flame Moon had grown up! It had become stronger once again. Wang Chen was very curious and wanted to know how much Flame Moon's strength had increased now!

  However, for some low-level spiritual warriors, the current Flame Moon shouldn't be a problem anymore.

  Thinking of this, Wang Chen's mouth corner revealed a thread of excited smile, Yan Yue's growth could bring him great help.

  Qīng xǐng guò lái, yán yuè yǎn zhōng hóng lán xiāng jiàn de guāng liàng yī shǎn ér guò, suí jí zài cì huī fù lei lǎn yang de mú yàng. Yī liū yān, pá dào le wáng chén de jiān shàng tǎ zhē.

  This made Wang Chen smile wryly. This little guy has really grown up now, and continuing to lie on his own shoulder always feels a bit strange. I believe that if Yan Yue grows again, he won't be able to continue lying on his own shoulder.

  After hesitating for a moment in the room, Wang Chen lifted his foot and walked out of the door.

  Hei Jin Chamber of Commerce, indeed worthy of being the largest chamber of commerce in Cangyue Kingdom! Controlling thirty percent of Cangyue Kingdom's economic lifeline.

  As the third largest trading hub of the Tsang Moon Kingdom, the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce in Tianfeng City is undoubtedly magnificent! Inside the vast mansion, people come and go, bustling with activity.

  At this time, the sky was dark, and Wang Chen found Irene after another round of questioning!

  When Wang Chen came to find her, Aileen was slightly surprised, and then a charming smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Sorry, I just got back today, there are many things to deal with, I'm late, I hope you don't mind!"

  At this moment, Irene had regained her usual demeanor, which was far different from the little woman she saw in the dead of night yesterday.

  "Impossible!" Wang Chen smiled slightly and said calmly.

  Last night's ambush was such a surprise, and I think it's unlikely that Ailin would return without making any moves! Wang Chen didn't pay much attention to it.

  "Is there something you want from me?" Ailin asked, looking at Wang Chen.

  "There's something... " Wang Chen hesitated for a moment, but didn't know how to start. His main purpose in coming this time was to find Ailin and hope that through her relationship, he could help himself find a Qingling fruit!

  This was his main purpose for staying in Hei Jin Business Association. Otherwise, he would have left after entering Tian Shui City today.

  Qīng líng guǒ bù hǎo zhǎo! yě zhǐ yǒu hēi jīn shāng huì zhè yàng de dà shāng huì zhōng cái bǐ jiào kě néng chū xiàn. zhǐ yǒu nà xiē dà jiā zú cái kě néng yǒu zhè yàng hǎo de dōng xī.

  Translation:

  Qingling fruit is hard to find! Only in big merchant associations like Hei Jin will it possibly appear. Only those big families may have such good things.

  Now that he has coincidentally caught up with the Hei Jin Shang Hui, Wang Chen does not want to give up this opportunity! The Qing Ling Guo is not only precious but can also be said to be in extremely short supply!

  It's not only because the Qingling fruit has a good nourishing and repairing effect on the soul for those masters, but also helps ordinary warriors to enhance their soul strength, thereby enhancing their cultivation speed.

  This is what Dà Mén Pài and the big family love most!

  Such things, ordinary people are fundamentally impossible to get! Even if these big merchants have Qingling fruit, it's very likely that they will be internally digested or pre-ordered by the big families. Ordinary people, even if you have money, it's hard to buy!

  Aileen, as the person in charge of Tianshui City's Black Gold Chamber of Commerce, might be able to help herself, that was Wang Chen's thought.

  However, after all, both sides had known each other for less than a day, and Wang Chen was at a loss for words.

  "Just say it directly! You're my lifesaver, I'll definitely help if I can!" Ellyn's mouth curled up into a sly smile as she looked at Wang Chen's hesitant expression.

  At this moment, Wang Chen was like a little kid, nervous and uneasy, where was the majestic aura of killing four sides with a sword last night? The difference is too big.

  "I don't know if your Black Gold Chamber of Commerce has any Qingling fruit! If you do, I'd like to buy one!" Wang Chen said hesitantly to Aileen.

  "Qīng Líng Guǒ?" Upon hearing Wang Chen's words, Ailin's face flashed a hint of strange expression, then looked at Wang Chen: "You're very lucky, or you could say very unlucky! At the auction four days later, we just so happen to have a Qing Ling fruit up for sale!"

  Aileen's face wore a bitter smile: "If you had come to me earlier, I might have been able to help you get it down. But... this is an item that was directly allocated from the Imperial Capital for auction. It's already on the auction list now. You can only buy it through the auction!"

  Upon hearing this sentence, Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat and his face revealed a hint of excitement!

  He was just asking with a glimmer of hope. He didn't have much expectation, but unexpectedly the Black Gold Merchant really had Qingling fruit!

  This instantly thrilled Wang Chen! Qingling fruit! Hei Jin Shanghui indeed has it! Just like Aileen said, his luck is really good. As for the auction, he doesn't mind! The greatest gain is finding the Qingling fruit!

  "About how much money can it be bought for?" Wang Chen asked with some urgency after a moment of hesitation.

  This is an opportunity that cannot be missed. Once this opportunity is missed, it's unknown when the next one will come again.

  "The Qingling fruit is precious, but among those rare treasures, it's not top-notch. It can only be considered mid-range. If purchased separately, maybe 100,000 gold coins could get you one. But at an auction... who knows..." Ailin trailed off, a hint of a bitter smile on her face.

  When he heard her words, Wang Chen also nodded secretly! What Aileen said was right!

  Anything can happen at an auction, especially with a valuable item like this spiritual medicine that aids in cultivation. The prices are usually inflated many times over. Now that the list has been posted, it's impossible to withdraw from the bidding. Although Aileen is the head of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce in Tianshui City.

  However, after all, this is just a trading point of the Black Gold Association. Above Aileen, the Black Gold Association has more giants, and Aileen does not have such a big say. Arbitrarily withdrawing the auction item will have no small impact on the Black Gold Association, and those bigwigs will not let Aileen do so.

  "It's estimated to be at least 150,000!" After thinking for a moment, Irene took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

  "1.5 million gold coins?" Upon hearing this price, Wang Chen took a deep breath! Sure enough, it was an auction, and the price suddenly rose by 50%!

  The Qingling fruit is precious, but its effect is limited. The space to help the soul improve its spiritual power is also limited! The Dà Mén Pài and the big families are not crazy about it yet. For these big families and sects, they have more things that can directly improve their cultivation than the Qingling fruit. However, for small sects and small families, this is a good thing.

  These small families and sects will definitely fight to the death! Fifteen million gold coins may not be a small sum for these small sects and families, but it's worth it. If they want to raise the price, it's just these small families raising the price! If the big families get involved, fifteen million gold coins are simply not enough.

  150,000 gold coins? Thinking about it, Wang Chen secretly got a headache! At present, he only had a few thousand gold coins in his pocket. Even if he sold all the demon pills, he could only get around 20,000 gold coins at most! Let alone 150,000, even more. Even if the normal purchase price was 100,000 gold coins, Wang Chen was still far from it.

  Money! It's all about money! Indeed, without money, one can't get far! The path of martial arts cultivation is long and arduous, often requiring a huge amount of funds as backing! This is also why those large clans and sects are flourishing, why everyone is scrambling to join them, and why the strong get stronger while the weak get weaker! At this moment, Wang Chen deeply understood the meaning behind these words!

  Money is indeed omnipotent. With enormous financial resources as a backing, spiritual elixirs and rare treasures can be used at will, making the cultivation speed naturally fast and the strength naturally powerful.

  "Do you need it that much? If not, I can help you keep an eye out for a while and find another one! There's no need to fight over this one at the auction! It'll probably take some time!" Ellyn asked, seeing Wang Chen frowning. Fifteen million gold coins was just her conservative estimate! Suddenly adding five million more was quite a large sum for ordinary people.

  Wang Chen furrowed his brow! Wait for a while longer? Don't know how much longer it'll take! Although Qingling fruit appears from time to time, in the entire Northern Territory, there are probably only about 8 or 9 of them per year! It's not that easy to get.

  "Or this, if you really need it! You can take a shot! Don't worry about the price, although I won't be able to help you get it directly, there are some things I can do. After you take the shot, just pay our cost price! The rest will be handled by me!" Seeing Wang Chen's expression, Aileen bowed her head and thought for a moment before adding.

  This sentence made Wang Chen greatly surprised! He was very clear that many things in the auction were entrusted by others for auction, not their own black gold business! If calculated at cost price, it means that Ellyn needs to independently bear the difference!

  This is absolutely a matter of human feelings, and Wang Chen was moved. Watching Aileen leave, he didn't know what to say. Aileen, this step has already been taken to the utmost extent of benevolence and righteousness.

  "Haha, don't be polite with me! Life is more important than money! If it weren't for you yesterday, who knows what would have happened. If you're short of money now, I'll lend it to you at cost price, just pay me back later! Sister is very generous!" Ellyn said, seeing Wang Chen's astonished face.

  Looking at Wang Chen, there was a different look in his eyes, with profound meaning!

  "I'll find a way! I'll be back after the auction in four days!" After a moment's consideration, Wang Chen took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

  It's time to think about how to make up for it. It's really hard for Ailin to help herself, and Wang Chen can't do it either.

  After all, more than 100,000 gold coins are not a small sum! This is equivalent to the annual tax revenue of a remote small town. It can be compared to the tax revenue of a small town like Wulan Town for over ten years. Even for Irene, it's not a small burden.

  "Take this card, and use it to enter the auction four days later! And here's the auction list! Of course, some good things won't be printed on these lists, so who knows what surprises you might get at the auction? I'm sure you'll have some unexpected gains!" With that said, Irene handed a golden card to Wang Chen with a hint of a smile.

  "Well, I'll be off then!" Picking up the card and a copy of the auction list, Wang Chen furrowed his brow and left the place, heading towards his own room.

  "Qīng líng guǒ? Nǐ dào dǐ yào ná lái zuò shén me ne? Jì rán nǐ xiǎng yào wǒ bāng nǐ ná xià lái jiù shì! Zhè ge rén qíng kě bù hǎo zhuàn ne!"

  Translation:

  "Green spirit fruit? What do you want to use it for anyway? Since you want me to help you get it down, I will! This favor isn't easy to repay!"
