Chapter 109 Iron Cloud Sect

Chapter 109 Iron Cloud Sect

A free market is not absolutely free.

A loud voice startled the patrol guard nearby and walked over. He snorted coldly: "Keep your voice down and don't disturb others."

The sturdy man with the loud voice nodded quickly.

Ye Yunqi was also startled by the voice and walked over since he was not far away.

The sturdy man was strong and full of vitality, and his loud voice was also natural. Now he couldn't disturb others, so he could only lower his voice and said: "This red blood mushroom..."

However, before he could bargain, he was interrupted by the casual cultivator who was setting up a stall: "Li Tielin, forget about bargaining. This kind of spiritual medicine that is beneficial to qi and blood is what you need most right now. If the price is too low, I can refuse to sell it to you."

The sturdy man Li Tielin seemed to be choked, and the words were stuck in his throat for a long time without uttering them. In the end, he said angrily: "You are such a dishonest person."

Ye Yunqi, who was walking to the side, also nodded. It was indeed not authentic, so he said, "Fellow Daoist Li, why don't you look for other spiritual medicines that can strengthen the blood and qi?"

Li Tielin turned his head to look at Ye Yunqi and smiled foolishly.

Before he could say anything, the casual cultivator spoke first: "Fellow Daoist, you don't know that all the spiritual medicines with corresponding effects in the market have been bought up by the Tieyun Sect. The market price is rising, so the price of my spiritual medicine is normal. Even if Li Tielin doesn't buy my red blood mushroom and buys something else, the price is the same."

Ye Yunqi nodded secretly. If this was the case, it made sense.

Li Tielin grinned and said with some lack of confidence: "But, but your appearance does not meet the Tieyun Sect's acquisition standards."

“I’ve lowered the price, too.”

"Your price reduction is different from usual... the market conditions are different after all." Li Tielin gritted his teeth, took out a spirit stone and handed it over.

The casual cultivator picked up the five red blood mushrooms on the stall and handed them to Li Tielin, saying, "Here, this is all your fault, Tieyun Sect. You bought so many at once, causing the price to go up. Hey, you are also a disciple of Tieyun Sect. Why are you still looking for more when the sect has bought so many?"

It turned out that he was a disciple of Tieyun Sect. Ye Yunqi suddenly realized that this sect's name sounded familiar to him.

When I came down the mountain from Sanqing Sect in the past, I saw the recruitment booth of Tieyun Sect in Longmen Town at the foot of the mountain.

Obviously, the Tieyun Sect is also one of the small sects under the Sanqing Sect.

When I passed by, I heard their self-introduction. Their approach was to use body refining as a technique to make up for the deficiency of their spiritual roots.

The sect's affairs were no secret, Li Tielin said frankly: "My sect's elder is about to break through, he is taking the route of strengthening his body with blood and qi, so naturally he has a great demand for spiritual medicines."

"It's a pity that ordinary disciples like me have to endure such hardships. This period of time will be difficult..."

Li Tielin took the red blood mushroom and threw it into the storage bag. His words seemed to be complaining, but there was a hint of pride in them.

After all, the sect is powerful, and ordinary disciples like them are confident enough when they are outside.

Sure enough, the casual cultivator exclaimed: "An elder has made a breakthrough? The elders of Tieyun Sect are at least at the foundation building stage. With such a breakthrough, could it be that he is about to form a pill?"

Li Tielin said with a proud look on his face: "Ah, that's right, that's right. It's a pity that I'm also about to make a breakthrough, otherwise, I would have waited a while before purchasing the elixir."

The casual cultivator sighed with emotion: "Congratulations to fellow Daoist, congratulations to the Tieyun Sect."

Li Tielin was about to leave when Ye Yunqi said, "Daoyou, do you think the thing in my hand is useful?"

Li Tielin turned his head to look at Ye Yunqi's hand, and when he turned his head, his whole body seemed to freeze.

In Ye Yunqi's hand was a rare high-end stock, the essence of qi and blood refined from a first-stage late-stage treasure chicken.

People who practice body cultivation naturally have a certain sensitivity to things related to qi and blood. Li Tielin clearly felt the majestic and refined qi and blood contained in the thing in Ye Yunqi's hand.

Coming back to his senses, Li Tielin quickly turned around and asked with a longing look on his face: "Daoyou, what is this? I have seen all kinds of things related to Qi and blood since I started practicing, but I have never seen this thing!"

Ye Yunqi said calmly: "This is the essence of blood and qi. It is condensed from the blood and qi of a first-stage late-stage precious chicken using the spiritual food technique."

Li Tielin is only at the sixth level of Qi training and has not yet broken through to the late stage of Qi training. It seems that this time he is buying elixirs to help him break through to the late stage.

Ye Yunqi thought about it, and without concealing his own aura, released it.

Of course, it was not to show off his own cultivation, but to let Li Tielin feel the vigorous blood in his body.

Li Tielin's eyes were originally fixed on the essence of blood and energy, unable to move away, but now he looked at Ye Yunqi with difficulty.

The vigorous blood and energy in Ye Yunqi's body made Li Tielin sigh with emotion, and he bowed and said, "So you are a fellow practitioner. It's a pleasure to meet you, senior. Can you sell me this blood essence?"

Ye Yunqi said modestly: "I am not a senior, I wonder how much Fellow Daoist Li would like to pay?"

After hesitating for a while, Li Tielin gritted his teeth and said, "According to the current market price, it can be priced at five grains of spiritual sand for one low-grade spiritual stone."

"Spiritual sand?"

"Ten grains of spiritual sand make one low-grade spiritual stone."

Ye Yunqi nodded, then took out a copy of the first-stage middle stage and the first-stage lower stage.

Li Tielin's eyes widened as he murmured, "This one from the middle stage is worth one spirit stone, and this one from the lower stage of the first stage can only be worth five spirit sands."

Then, as if realizing something, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "Could it be that you are a spiritual chef?"

Lingshi is a branch of Lingchu. When they were powerful in the early days, Lingchu and Lingshi were separated for a while due to different philosophies, but they later reconciled.

Ye Yunqi nodded.

Li Tielin said in surprise: "To be honest, my Tieyun Sect is in urgent need of blood essence. I wonder if you can go to Tieyun Sect to have a talk? My Tieyun Sect is a subsidiary sect of Sanqing Sect. Our strength and reputation are first-class. We will definitely not treat you unfairly."

What Li Tielin meant was to bring about cooperation between Ye Yunqi and Tieyun Sect.

If the cooperation is achieved, it will be a great achievement for him.

Ye Yunqi was about to agree, but hesitated and said, "But I am already a guest of the Jiang family, I wonder if this is convenient?"

"It's convenient, why not? Not to mention that we are all under the command of Sanqing Sect." Li Tielin said confidently, "Even if someone outside Sanqing Sect wants to hire a craftsman from Sanqing Sect, as long as they can afford the price, they can also hire him to do the work. Regardless of whether it's a sect or a family, we can't restrict others' freedom, right?"

"If that's the case, it's easy to say. However, I'm traveling with my concubine today, so it's a bit inconvenient. Can I contact Tieyun Sect after I return to the Jiang family and talk to them?"

"It's me, Li, who doesn't understand the situation. This is easy. Let's make an appointment and my Tieyun Sect will definitely pay you a visit." After Li Tielin finished speaking, he hurriedly took out three spirit stones and handed them to Ye Yunqi, "I will buy these three blood essences so that I can talk to the sect about it."

Three spirit stones is equivalent to one month's salary.

However, for Ye Yunqi, who is now full of blood energy, the effects of these three blood essences are far less than those of three spirit stones.

Ye Yunqi was just about to make a deal with Li Tieyun, but he noticed a gaze directed at him. Ye Yunqi looked and saw that it was a patrol guard.

Li Tieyun also slapped his head and said, "Blame me, blame me, this is a market."

Then he took out a grain of spiritual sand and walked towards the patrol guard, then said a few nice words. With the identity of Tieyun Sect, the guard did not embarrass him. He took the spiritual sand and wrote a note.

Li Tieyun came back and handed the note to Ye Yunqi: "We have set up a temporary stall. Now we can trade openly."

"The rules here are quite strict." Ye Yunqi held out a piece of paper, which had a vague effect similar to that of a talisman or jade slip.

As soon as you get it, you can sense the location of your stall and the speed at which the spiritual energy on it is lost. In about a day, its spiritual energy will be completely lost and it will become waste paper.

This means that the booth rental time is up.

"There is no order without rules!" Li Tieyun's sentiment was also recognized by Ye Yunqi.

The two reached a deal and agreed on a time for the day after tomorrow, and then Li Tieyun left in a hurry.

Ye Yunqi looked at the two concubines and said with a smile: "We have been delayed for a long time. Let's go and visit Nanfan Market." Chu Yao and Chu Lin said with a smile: "After all, the master's business is more important."

"That's it."

The three continued walking south.

The Southern Fan Collection only occupies 30% of the Immortal Fan Collection.

But the density of people flow is much higher than Beixianji.

Therefore, Nanfan Market was crowded with people, creating a prosperous scene.

Although it is not as spacious, grand and exquisite as Beixianji, it also has a unique worldly feel.

Vendors along the street sell all kinds of things.

There were sounds of bargaining and inquiries about goods all around.

There were no patrols to stop the noise.

However, there is a formation barrier between Nanfanji and Beixianji.

On the one hand, it prevented mortals from going to Beixianji privately, and on the other hand, it blocked the noisy sounds from Nanxianji.

Although it was a bit noisy, after practicing Taoism for a long time, Ye Yunqi also missed this prosperous scene of the mortal world.

He walked in with his two concubines.

There were a lot of people, so the three of them walked very slowly.

Suddenly, the crowd moved and made way.

It turned out to be a monk, with golden light shining all over his body, walking quickly.

Ye Yunqi recognized that the cultivator was only in the initial stage of Qi training, and the golden light was just a low-level spell that had the effect of defense and blocking, but the effect was extremely weak.

It is far inferior to the mighty power of the golden light.

It's just a means for the monk to reveal his identity. Once his identity is revealed, the rest of the mortals will quickly avoid him.

Let him pass unhindered.

Chu Yao and Chu Lin huddled in Ye Yunqi's arms with some dissatisfaction.

Because the people around made way for that person, it made this place even more crowded.

Ye Yunqi sighed, and his spiritual energy circulated throughout his body. An invisible and gentle force blocked the people around him.

He didn't want to be high-profile, but there were too many people coming and going.

But there was a little space on his side.

Others wanted to squeeze in but couldn't, they just felt an invisible soft force blocking them.

Who among the people nearby doesn’t know that he is also an immortal master?

One person was squeezed by the others and staggered. He was about to bump into Ye Yunqi and the other two, but was suddenly held up by an invisible force. Looking at the wall of air in front of him, he shouted in a trembling voice: "Master, Master, I have no intention of offending you."

With a cry of surprise, the people around who had noticed it all shouted, "Master, Master, please, I will make way for you."

Ye Yunqi sighed. This was becoming boring.

However, Chu Yao and Chu Lin seemed extremely excited. They could only hide in Ye Yunqi's arms before, but now they walked calmly on both sides of Ye Yunqi and nodded to everyone: "It's okay, my master is kind. Let's go, master, let's continue shopping."

After strolling around the streets for a while, Ye Yunqi found that this classical market did not have much appeal after all.

It quickly became boring.

Chu Yao and Chu Lin lived nearby before, so it wouldn't be too surprising for them.

Ye Yunqi prepared to get down to business and headed towards the place he had previously inquired about from his senior brother.

The slave market is located in Nanfanji, but I heard that there is also one in Beixianji.

But the prices there are calculated in spirit stones, which Ye Yunqi cannot afford.

Inside the slave market, seeing Ye Yunqi hugging two concubines, it was obvious that he was a target customer, and many people wanted to introduce him to someone else.

Ye Yunqi simply imitated the person he had seen before, and golden light emanated from his whole body.

As expected, many of the people who were working hard to sell their slaves were a little afraid. They just pulled out their slaves from a distance and did not dare to speak. They just hoped that Ye Yunqi would take the initiative to ask questions when he saw the slaves with their eyes closed.

But those slaves were all half-naked and ragged, and as dispirited as cattle and horses.

Although Ye Yunqi felt pity, the world was in such a state that if he tried to save people, how many could he save?

Chu Yao and Chu Lin were even more frightened and couldn't help but ask, "Why did the master come here?"

There was a slight tremor in the last part of her voice, as if she was afraid that Ye Yunqi would sell them out.

Ye Yunqi said: "Buy a few maids to serve you."

Chu Yao and Chu Lin looked at each other and said nothing.

But she was obviously slandering in her heart: Is this serving them? It's more like serving the master.

If it were Su Muyao, she would probably just make a joke.

But the two of them had only just started working and were not yet this familiar with each other.

A pavilion that is only three times inferior to the one in Beixianji comes into view.

This is the place that the senior brother mentioned.

I heard that this company is actually the same one that sells slaves in Beixianji. No wonder there is such a magnificent building in Nanfanji.

As soon as Ye Yunqi entered the door, he saw a waiter who was at the first level of Qi training standing in front of the door.

As soon as he saw Ye Yunqi, he quickly came forward and said, "Hello, senior, welcome."

Ye Yunqi was extremely surprised to find that there were actually Qi-cultivating cultivators working as waiters in Nanfanji.

You know, those who come here are often not monks like them, but mortals!

If a mortal came to purchase slaves, he would be served by a monk waiter before he even came in. The other party was humble and pleasing, which must have brought great satisfaction and shock to the mortal!

In this case, the other party will definitely have great trust in this place.

Think about it, if even the monks were so obedient, how could the slaves bought here be any worse? How could they be disobedient?

Ye Yunqi looked up and saw three large characters on the plaque on the pavilion.

"Jinyufang"

Such an elegant name, but it is a place where slaves are bought and sold.
