Chapter 29: Yellow Spring Liquid, Feathered Snake's Shed Skin

  Xu Yang nodded, but hadn't spoken yet. Ge Liguang, who was beside him, became impatient and said: "20,000 Canglang coins!"

  Logically speaking, a piece of Qingling crystal shouldn't be worth more than 5,000 Canglang coins, so Ge Liguos offer was already quite high. But seeing Xu Yangs unmoved expression, Ge Liguo couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart and coldly said: "Greed breeds trouble, beware of retribution."

  The sentence was full of threatening meaning, Xu Qing furrowed his brow and hummed heavily. However, he still didn't dare to show too much protection towards Xu Yang in public, especially in front of Ge!

  Fifteen years ago, the Ge family of Linwan saw the might of the Mo family and, regardless of their own worth, fawned on them. Although the Mo family did not care about such a small family, the Ge family's allegiance helped them extend their influence into Linwan City, so they did not refuse.

  If Xu Jia sheltered Xu Yang, Ge would likely report to the Mo family, and the consequences that followed were not something Xu Qing could bear.

  "I, Xu Shi, offer 200,000 yuan and an additional nuclear coin." Xu Qingbai spoke up, this was the first time Xu Shi had made a bid. Xu Qingliu, who was standing beside him, stared with his eyes wide open, unable to speak. Originally, he was in charge of this major acquisition, but now Xu Qingbai had taken the lead, and his discontent was palpable.

  These three ordinary medicine formulas are indeed worth the price that Xu Shi is asking for. By doing so, Xu Qingbai has also made it difficult for others to find any fault with him.

  The old man stroked his beard and smiled: "Since the Xus have spoken, we Yus will not interfere."

  The words of the old man of the Yu family are hilarious. Since Xu Qingyuan rose to power, the Yu family chose to secretly ally with the Ge family to counter the increasingly powerful Xu clan. How did the two families, who had always been on good terms, come from? However, this is also a balancing strategy for the Yu family. The old man of the Yu family released a kind signal, and now that the Ge family is dominant, the Yu and Xu families must abandon their past grievances and come together.

  As expected, Ge Ligu's face turned gloomy and he glared at the old man with a thick skin, saying: "20,000 Canglang coins for one bottle of 'Netherworld Liquid'!"

  Some people are not very clear what Huang Quan Liquid is a treasure, but Xu Yang is well aware that this is an Anji Lingbao, which can be used to condense the Anxuan vortex.

  Li Yurong naturally understood, the Huangquan liquid was much rarer than the Qingling crystal, and there was no stock in the Qianbao Pavilion. She sighed and said: "Although the Qianbao Pavilion has many treasures, only the Qingling crystal meets Mr. Xu Yang's requirements. I will also raise the price to 20,000, plus one Qingling crystal, let's see how Mr. Xu Yang chooses."

  The Wu family withdrew, and the Ge, Xu, and Qianbao Pavilion representatives, respectively, took out a piece of treasure from the Zhuxuan base. Among them, the most precious one was the "Yellow Spring Liquid" of the Ge family.

  Those who understand the treasure guessed that Xu Yang should choose Huangquan liquid.

  With a faint smile, Xu Yang said: "Feng Xuan's vortex wheel is a good choice. So, I've decided to sell the formula to Qian Bao Pavilion."

  Xu Qing sighed, Xu Yang was still repaying the kindness of Li Zhongxuan. He couldn't help but think that if he had been the one to take action instead of Li Zhongxuan, would Xu Yang have more recognition for the Xu family?

  Li Yurong's face showed a look of surprise: "Thank you, Mr. Xu Yang. Qingyun, go get 200 Winged Tiger coins and also bring the Qingling crystal from warehouse No. 4."

  Xu Yang smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

  Looking at Xu Yang's calm smile, Li Yurong suddenly realized that Xu Yang had planned to transfer the formula to Qianbao Pavilion from the beginning. She was somewhat utilitarian and even used Li Zhongxuan's protection as a bargaining chip. This move of taking advantage of kindness made Xu Yang dissatisfied, which led to the public sale action.

  With a soft sigh, Li Yurong's heart was filled with bitterness. Her nature had always been calm and unruffled, unobstructed by external things. But in order to repay the great kindness of the Li family, she could only transform herself into a worldly woman, contending for every bit of benefit for the Li family. Who else could understand the hardships within?

  Two hundred gold Wing Tiger coins, carried on a tray, were presented to Xu Yang. However, what Xu Yang was more concerned about was the small, exquisite blue crystal.

  It feels cool to the touch, and when placed by the ear, it seems as if one can hear a gentle breeze whispering. This is the Wind Crystal, Qing Ling Jing.

  Received the coins and Lingbao, Xu Yang asked for a pen and paper, and wrote down the formulas of the three kinds of Dan medicine on the spot, handed them over to Li Yurong, and the transaction was completed.

  Xu Yang's two hundred Winged Tiger coins made people extremely envious. After all, most families in Lin Yuan City didn't even have an annual income of two hundred Winged Tiger coins.

  "I'm sorry to have kept everyone waiting," said Li Yurong, composing herself. "The appraisal meeting will now begin. Please place the treasures you wish to sell on the jade table in front of your seats."

  For a moment, all sorts of mysterious energy fluctuations surged out, colorful and resplendent, with precious lights shooting into the sky. Xu Yang was somewhat tongue-tied; this appraisal meeting's scale was indeed grand, worthy of being Lincheng City's largest trading event.

  As a landlord, Qianbaoge also has gains. For every successful transaction, 5% of the transaction amount will be deducted as commission and given to Qianbaoge.

  The old man who hosted the grand event at Qianbao Pavilion walked past each seat, responsible for appraising the treasures to prevent any counterfeit goods from being passed off as genuine. If a buyer purchased fake goods, Qianbao Pavilion, as an intermediary, would be responsible for helping to recover the losses.

  Such a grand trading event is not something that just any family can host, and only the Li family has this kind of power.

  Xu Yang's third seat, the jade case above was empty, he didn't need to look at the stall, but instead walked over, admiring the treasures along the way, seeing if there were any suitable items.

  On the right side of Ge's seat, the Ge family placed the bottle of Huangquan liquid that had not been traded on the jade case. Xu Yang knew in his heart that the owner of the Dark Extreme Pulse was extremely rare, and this kind of Dark Extreme treasure had little value if it didn't meet a suitable buyer.

  It's obvious that Ge's family put out this bottle of Huangquan liquid for Xu Yang to see, as he is an Eight Extreme Body, he naturally has the Dark Extreme talent, and Ge Liguo hopes that Xu Yang can buy this bottle of Huangquan liquid.

  Xu Yang walked past seat number four without batting an eye, not even giving the bottle of Huang Quan liquid a glance. This made Ge Liguang feel disheartened.

  Xu Yang was playing it cool. If he had shown impatience from the start and seemed eager to get his hands on Huang Quan Liquid, the Ge family would have definitely taken advantage of the situation to raise the price.

  Sixth seat, Xu Qingliu placed each item one by one, including dan medicine, xuan technique and some entry-level spiritual medicine.

  "The earth core, didn't we bring it? Put it up there." Xu Qing said calmly.

  Xu Qing's hand trembled as he looked at Xu Qinggui, but ultimately did not disobey, and placed a yellow bead on the jade case.

  Xu Yang stopped in front of the jade counter and glanced at the yellow earth core, asking softly: "How much is this earth core?"

  Xu Qingliu looked at Xu Qinglai with a questioning gaze. Xu Qinglai replied impatiently, "The price is what it is, fair trade!"

  This sentence is actually a warning to Xu Qingliu, don't take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices, sell at a fair price to Xu Yang.

  "Three thousand canglang coins." Xǔ Qīngliú could only quote a moderate price, originally he thought the initial price of this land nuclear should be above five thousand canglang coins, because the buyer would definitely haggle, so there was room for bargaining.

  Xu Yang nodded, took out thirty Winged Tiger coins and placed them on the jade case, put away the Earth Core, and walked straight over.

  "No haggling?" Xu Qingliu was slightly taken aback.

  Xu Yang pinched the terrestrial core in the leather pouch, and his heart was overjoyed. This was a top-grade treasure that condensed the Earth Xuan vortex wheel.

  "In the golden age, treasures were everywhere, later generations worried about building a mysterious foundation, it's really hard to imagine."

  Xu Yang looked around and saw that the items displayed by the big families in the first row were much rarer than those in the back rows, and of course, the prices were also higher.

  Xu Yang walked slowly over to the second row, where an item on a stall caught his interest.

  "What is this, it seems to be a shed skin of a snake... It's strange, snakes are naturally cold-blooded, but this shed skin has a hint of electric energy!" Xu Yang gently stroked the giant snake shed skin, lost in thought.

  The seller came from a small family and naturally knew Xu Yang, who had just made a big splash, saying: "Young Master Xu Yang, this snake skin may not have been identified, but it's indeed a treasure! Look at its texture, light as paper, smooth as silk..."

  It just so happened that the old man in charge of appraising treasures at Qianbao Pavilion was passing by, and he glanced at the snake slough with disdain, saying: "What kind of snake slough is this? It's not even light and smooth. This snake slough actually has two big holes on its back, it's not even complete. If it didn't contain a hint of thunder energy, it wouldn't even be qualified to appear at the appraisal meeting."

  The seller did not dare to offend the old man, he had just managed to get the Qianbao Pavilion appraisal meeting ticket with great difficulty. Although he cursed in his heart, he still smiled and said: "This can't be identified, I'm just trying my luck."

  The old man's words, however, shocked Xuyang awake, and four characters flashed through his mind: Feathered Snake Relics!

  "Born in the cracks of heaven and earth, grown in the midst of thunder, braving wind and rain, refined over a thousand years", this is what ancient texts recorded about the Feathered Serpent, a heavenly spirit.

  Although its name contains a snake character, the Feathered Serpent is not a true serpent but rather a spirit formed from highly concentrated lightning energy. Its temperament is violent and its power is awe-inspiring.

  This feathered snake fossil is well preserved, with two large holes on its back that are actually the positions of the feathered snake's wings.

  "How much is this snake skin?" Xǔ Yáng asked calmly.

  The seller hesitantly held up five fingers: "Five hundred..." Before he could finish speaking, Xu Yang turned and walked away.

  "Master Xuyang, please stay, I'll let it go for just 300 coppers. You can have this snake skin!" The vendor hastily said.

  Xu Yang had just left to avoid the seller noticing his eagerness and raising the price. Seeing the seller relax, he turned back and calmly said: "One hundred."

  "This is also too low......" The seller sighed and looked at Xu Yang's indifferent eyes, "Two hundred Wolf Coins, how about it?"

  The old appraiser turned around again, saw that Xu Yang had the intention to buy, and hurriedly said: "Young Master Xu, this snake skin is not worth two hundred silver wolf coins. In the Wan Snake Cave of the Giant Python Mountain Range, there are countless larger snake skins than this one. If you really want to buy it and get cheated, Qian Bao Pavilion will not be responsible for helping you recover your losses, because I have already warned you beforehand."

  "Thank you for your advice, senior." Towards this elderly man with white hair and beard, Xu Yang still had a good impression of him, at least he was responsible.

  In the end, this Feathered Snake Cloak was sold for 100 Silver Wolf Coins.
