Chapter 1345: Rich Young Master

~7 min read 1,280 words

The steward saw that Ye Liuyun had no cultivation level, and moreover thought he was some rich young master who wanted to try training, and also patiently gave an introduction.

Ye Liuyun heard that the cultivation system here was actually the same as in his previous world, so he relaxed and asked, "Do you have any Heaven-tier cultivation methods?"

His question was actually quite general; cultivation methods include the ways to cultivate true essence, as well as various attack skills.

The steward chuckled: "Young master, you're joking—how could a small town like ours have Heaven-tier cultivation methods? To be frank, in the whole Haotian City, only the Lord's Manor possesses a Heaven-tier palm technique."

"Is that so? Then what about Earth-tier?" Ye Liuyun could only settle for second best.

The steward laughed again: "Earth-tier cultivation methods are also rare, but you happen to be in luck—three days from now we will hold an auction here, where Earth-tier cultivation methods will be sold."

However, Earth-tier cultivation methods are also hot commodities in our Haotian City. Not only are they expensive, even if you manage to win one, the subsequent trouble could be considerable……

"Oh!" Ye Liuyun understood the steward's meaning.

"Probably many local powers will vie for those Earth-tier methods, so even if he has the money to win one, he might not be able to take it away."

However, Ye Liuyun was not worried at all—he hadn't seen even a few Heavenly Gang Realm martial cultivators in the whole Haotian City, so there was basically no need to worry about being robbed here.

"If that's the case, then I'll participate in the auction! How many Heaven-tier weapons do you have here? Bring them out for me to look at." Ye Liuyun asked again.

The steward was also speechless, thinking to himself: "Where did this rich young master come from? He has no cultivation level, but his tone is huge—opening his mouth he demands Heaven-tier, Heaven-tier; where am I supposed to find Heaven-tier treasures for him?"

Nevertheless, he kept a smile on his face and explained to Ye Liuyun: "Young master, Heaven-tier treasures are probably only available at the Lord's Manor; here we only have three Earth-tier weapons, and they are all prepared for the auction."

Ye Liuyun also felt a bit embarrassed: "It seems this place is just too small a city, with nothing good."

He now wanted to spend spirit stones to buy things, but there was nowhere to spend them.

But after asking around, he actually managed to find two basic books on alchemy, as well as some basic pill recipes.

So he bought those two books and the recipes, also bought a pill furnace, and purchased plenty of the corresponding medicinal herbs, intending to bring them back to teach A Xing.

Then he bought a large quantity of body-refining, true-essence, and Sea Transformation realm pills. One portion he set aside specially for A Xing's backup, another portion he sent to the tribe.

For pills needed for higher realms, he could use those seized from the Yin Soul and give them to A Xing to keep for future use.

Just these items alone cost Ye Liuyun tens of thousands of medium-grade spirit stones. This was already the biggest order the steward had taken this year.

When settling the bill, Ye Liuyun paid with high-grade spirit stones, which also startled the steward of the merchants' association.

"What, you don't accept high-grade spirit stones?" Ye Liuyun worried, "If you don't take high-grade spirit stones, I really couldn't buy these things—I don't have that many medium-grade spirit stones on hand."

"We do, we do. It's just that we rarely see high-grade spirit stones here!" the steward explained.

"Oh, then I still have ten pieces of high-grade spirit stones here—could you help me exchange them for medium- and low-grade spirit stones?" Ye Liuyun took the opportunity to ask for more exchange, for future convenience.

The steward's eyes lit up at the sight!

"Young master, you're indeed generous! Leave it to me, please wait a moment!" The steward took those high-grade spirit stones and went off happily to exchange them for Ye Liuyun.

Exchanging spirit stones incurs a handling fee—this kind of free profit is something he certainly enjoys doing!

"Looks like I still need to go to a big city to find better resources!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

Even if we lack weapons, that's fine, but cultivation methods are the foundation—at the very least we need an upper-grade Earth-tier or a Heaven-tier method for the tribe to rise quickly.

Suddenly, Ye Liuyun thought of the major powers in this locality.

"If I manage to win an Earth-tier cultivation method at auction, and they come to rob me afterward, could I turn the tables and rob them instead? That way, the cultivation methods I give the tribe would also become more abundant……"

Ye Liuyun hatched the idea of robbing the local major powers.

"Alright, that's settled! If they aren't greedy, then forget it; but if they are greedy, then they'll just have to suffer bad luck!"

Thinking this over, Ye Liuyun's mood improved. Having settled this matter, he could now leave the tribe with peace of mind.

Soon, the steward returned the exchanged spirit stones to Ye Liuyun and also gave him a VIP invitation to the auction. With that invitation, he could have a private room when he went.

Ye Liuyun thanked him, kept the invitation, and went out to find A Xing and Ye Tiandao.

A Xing was still picking out clothes, while Ye Tiandao had finished buying the seasonings and was keeping her company.

Ye Liuyun wandered around again and bought a lot of beast meat for storage.

He put the beast meat, the pills prepared for A Xing, and the spirit stones all into a spacious storage ring, planning to hand them all over to A Xing before leaving.

After A Xing had picked out her clothes, Ye Liuyun again had her pack the clothes and seasonings securely.

"Are these all for me?" A Xing asked in surprise.

"Mm, they're all yours!" Ye Liuyun confirmed.

"But that wouldn't do—Adao doesn't have any either!" A Xing felt that since everything was bought for her, Ye Tiandao got nothing, and she felt a bit uneasy.

"I already have them long ago!" Ye Tiandao explained to her.

"Are these very expensive?" A Xing stared with wide eyes at Ye Liuyun.

"I'm giving them to you—just accept them!" Ye Liuyun also didn't want to deceive her, fearing that if she later came to buy things again it would become a joke.

"Well then, even if it's compensation for making me angry—I won't stay mad at you either!" After thinking, A Xing also accepted Ye Liuyun's gift.

Ye Liuyun smiled and said to her: "To celebrate A Xing not being angry with me, let me take you out for something delicious!"

"Huh? Really? What delicious things?" Upon hearing that, A Xing also became interested.

"Let's go to a restaurant—order whatever you like to eat!" Ye Liuyun laughed.

Thus, Ye Liuyun brought them and hurried toward the restaurant.

A Xing didn't know the prices, so she just picked some dishes that sounded good. Ye Liuyun, seeing what she liked, ordered a few extra portions for her to store in the storage space to eat slowly later.

This time A Xing also ate her fill and drank quite a lot of alcohol, her little face turning red.

When settling the bill, Ye Liuyun had Ye Tiandao take A Xing out first to wait for him, fearing A Xing would feel bad about the money.

After paying the bill, they then returned together to their residence.
