Chapter 25

Seeing that Ye Qingxuan's mind was made up!

Bai Qingxia immediately spoke up and agreed to the price.

"Since Junior Brother Ye insists, let's go with the purchase price of nine low-grade spirit stones!"

Hong Miaomiao heard Bai Qingxia's words, glared at him, but said nothing more.

Seeing this, Ye Qingxuan and Bai Qingxia exchanged a glance and then both chuckled softly.

Only at this moment did Bai Qingxia truly accept and recognize Ye Qingxuan as his junior brother in his heart.

Afterwards, Ye Qingxuan took out a thousand Spirit-Boosting Pills and completed the transaction with Bai Qingxia and Hong Miaomiao!

Nine thousand low-grade spirit stones entered his account, filling Ye Qingxuan's once-empty purse once again.

Hong Miaomiao looked at the Spirit-Boosting Pills in her hand, recalled Ye Qingxuan's earlier request to purchase medicinal herbs from her, had a sudden flash of insight, and instinctively asked:

"Junior Brother, did you refine these Spirit-Boosting Pills yourself?"

Facing Hong Miaomiao's question, Ye Qingxuan already had a prepared explanation and replied directly:

"No, these were refined by several of my friends together and entrusted to me for sale."

"Oh, is that so?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Miaomiao felt somewhat disappointed!

But Bai Qingxia, standing nearby, gave Ye Qingxuan a meaningful look and said:

"Junior Brother, if that's the case, my senior sister and I would like to establish a fixed trading relationship with you in the future. What conditions do you require?"

If he didn't refine them himself, how could he offer such a casual price? Who would believe that?

Anyway, Bai Qingxia didn't believe it, but he didn't expose him directly; instead, he inquired about the conditions for a fixed trade.

Hearing Bai Qingxia's words, a gleam flashed in Ye Qingxuan's eyes, and he chuckled lightly:

"Hehe, my friend has no other demands except that he likes quiet and doesn't wish to be disturbed. So, if we want a fixed trade, we must only make a Dao Oath, swearing never to reveal the source of the pills to anyone!"

In this world, a Dao Oath is not merely empty words. Once sworn, even a peak-level powerhouse could not extract a single bit of information protected by the oath.

Therefore, only by making a Dao Oath could Ye Qingxuan trade with peace of mind, without worrying about exposing himself and inviting unnecessary trouble.

However, a Dao Oath can only be sworn voluntarily; under coercion, a cultivator cannot make one!

Upon hearing this, Bai Qingxia pulled Hong Miaomiao aside, discussed briefly, and then both approached Ye Qingxuan and made the Dao Oath.

Making such an oath merely prevents the swearer from revealing the secret that needs protection; it causes no other harm.

Moreover, once others know they have made a Dao Oath and understand its existence, they naturally will not persistently pry for information.

For them, this also saves considerable trouble!

Seeing that Bai Qingxia and Hong Miaomiao had made the Dao Oath, Ye Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Having a fixed channel for selling pills greatly helped him in the early stages, at least sparing him the worry of selling pills to recover funds.

Ye Qingxuan's search for a fixed sales channel was also laying the groundwork for selling the output of his blessed land after he became a Blessed Cultivator.

Of course, Bai Qingxia and Hong Miaomiao were only a small part; the real major partner was Bai Wenyang, who worked at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

If he could also secure Bai Wenyang, then in the future he would truly only need to focus on secluded cultivation, without worrying about the sales of his pills.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingxuan and Bai Qingxia exchanged communication tokens, then bid farewell to the two and headed toward the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

Soon, Ye Qingxuan arrived outside the Hundred Treasures Pavilion!

After taking out his token and sending a message to Bai Wenyang, Ye Qingxuan walked into the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

Not long after stepping inside, Bai Wenyang, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came forward to greet him.

Sensing the spiritual power aura on Ye Qingxuan, Bai Wenyang smiled and said:

"It's been a year, Junior Brother, and your cultivation has grown significantly! Hahaha!"

Seeing the arriving Bai Wenyang, Ye Qingxuan also smiled on his face!

"Junior Brother, please come this way!"

Since Ye Qingxuan had come to sell pills this time, Bai Wenyang planned to take him directly to a more private room for the transaction.

The various small private rooms set up by the Hundred Treasures Pavilion were specially established to protect the privacy of certain clients.

Generally, if a client had something to sell to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, the default was to conduct the transaction in such a small private room.

Under Bai Wenyang's guidance, the two quickly reached the entrance of a private room. Just as they were about to enter, someone walked out from inside, blocking them:

"Sorry! Bai Wenyang, my client is in a hurry; I'll occupy this room first!"

Seeing that his reserved private room had been taken, Bai Wenyang glared fiercely at the person before him and angrily said:

"Wang Zizhou, this room was registered and reserved by me. Isn't what you're doing against the rules?"

"Rules?"

Wang Zizhou, blocking the doorway, heard this, glanced disdainfully at Ye Qingxuan beside Bai Wenyang, and sneered:

"In this world, the strong are respected. My client is a senior brother at the Purple Mansion realm, not comparable to someone casually bringing in a Qi Refining client!"

Hmph, now he and Bai Wenyang were competing for the position of team leader at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, and the competition was based on performance!

Under these circumstances, he naturally would not miss any opportunity to suppress Bai Wenyang; even if Bai Wenyang's client was merely a Qi Refining cultivator, he would not give Bai Wenyang any chance to recover.

"You! Wang Zizhou, don't push your luck. Don't drag others into the feud between us!"

Hearing Wang Zizhou's words, Bai Wenyang became furious and directly scolded Wang Zizhou.

But Wang Zizhou, facing the irate Bai Wenyang, merely sneered and said:

"Keep your voice down; don't disturb my client!"

At the same time, he reached out, pretended to dig out non-existent earwax, and flicked it toward Bai Wenyang!

At this moment, through the conversation between Bai Wenyang and Wang Zizhou, Ye Qingxuan already knew he was suffering from an innocent calamity!

Facing someone like Wang Zizhou who took advantage of kindness, Ye Qingxuan would not indulge him.

With his cultivation, he naturally could not deal with Wang Zizhou, but there were certainly others inside the Hundred Treasures Pavilion who could. Thus, Ye Qingxuan directly shouted in a loud voice:

"What? You intend to drag me, a customer, into the internal grievances of your Hundred Treasures Pavilion staff?"

Ye Qingxuan's voice was loud, instantly drawing the attention of many in the first-floor hall.

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Wang Zizhou's eyes flashed with panic. He glared fiercely at Ye Qingxuan and threatened:

"Boy, do not speak recklessly, or I..."

Before Wang Zizhou could finish, a voice cut him off:

"Or what will you do?"

Hearing the sudden voice interrupt him, Wang Zizhou turned to look. Seeing the newcomer, his face instantly turned pale. He stammered nervously:

"Elder Yan... Elder Yan... Elder Yan, why... why have you... come?"

Elder Yan ignored Wang Zizhou and turned to ask Bai Wenyan:

"Bai Wenyan, what exactly happened?"

Hearing Elder Yan question him, Bai Wenyan respectfully bowed and recounted the entire sequence of events in detail.

After listening, Elder Yan glared directly at Wang Zidan. Without raising his voice, his presence was awe-inspiring as he roared in fury:

"Wang Zidan, listen well to me!"

Speaking thus, Elder Yan scanned the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, glanced at everyone, then fixed his gaze on Ye Qingxuan and continued:

"It is true that the strong are revered in this world, but that applies to outsiders!

Within our Profound Heaven Sect, whether you are a Qi Refining disciple, a Soul Transformation inheritance disciple, or even a Tribulation Crossing Elder, before the sect rules, we are all treated equally!

The Hundred Treasures Pavilion is no exception!"
