Chapter 95

Yibao Pavilion, in Lingwu City, has a total of nine branches, each located among the nine major external tribes. The Yibao Pavilion in Qingyu is not far from the Qingyang Hall.

Although the Lingwu Clan has many members, Lingwu City is even larger, and it was early in the morning, so Long Chen encountered few people.

The Lingwu Clan is filled with powerful figures. Even in the Qingliu Residence, Long Chen faced such intense competition, let alone outside.

At this moment, Long Chen was so low-key that he was not much different from a Dan Realm martial artist, heading in the direction of the Yibao Pavilion.

The closer he got to the Yibao Pavilion, the more people he encountered, including many young strong figures.

In the Qing Clan, Dan Realm martial artists are as common as dogs, while Earth Dan Realm martial artists are relatively rare. As for Heaven Dan Realm, Long Chen had yet to see a single one. Speaking of which, the strongest person he had encountered in the Qing Clan was Liu Lan.

This Yibao Pavilion of the Qing Clan is much larger than the small branch of the Chenxi Merchant Alliance in the Eastern Ling Region. It has three major floors, incredibly vast.

Long Chen learned that with his current status and strength, he could not enter the upper two floors at all.

However, just the first floor alone had everything Long Chen needed.

In this magnificent Yibao Pavilion, adorned with jade and pearls, Long Chen finally found the area for spirit medicines.

Spirit medicines are further categorized, but there was no separate category for soul spirit medicines. Long Chen had to search for a long time in the 'other' category and then ask others before he found a Spirit Conception Fruit.

Looking at the price, Long Chen sighed in relief. The Spirit Conception Fruit was priced at 9 contribution points.

After completing the transaction and putting the Spirit Conception Fruit into his Qiankun Bag, Long Chen asked the clan member recording the transactions, "Excuse me, are there any more Spirit Conception Fruits here?"

"This medicine, the Yibao Pavilion only has one in stock. If you take this fruit today, you will have to wait about two to three days for a new Spirit Conception Fruit."

Long Chen nodded, having no choice but to wait two to three days before coming back to exchange.

"In the outside world, a Spirit Conception Fruit costs 100 divine jade, but here it only costs 9 contribution points. I completed a task and got over 300 divine jade? No, I'm just a new member, and I only assisted in a Level 3 task, so I shouldn't have been rewarded so much. It must be that Liu Lan gave me more..."

While these thoughts ran through Long Chen's mind, Lingxi was still immersed in the joy of obtaining another Spirit Conception Fruit. Hearing Long Chen's question, she realized that he seemed to want to use all 30 contribution points to exchange for Spirit Conception Fruits. Feeling touched and a bit guilty, she said, "Hey, I'm fine with just one. You should use the rest to get something for yourself. I'll look for something good for you!"

"Still, I don't need anything. This soul medicine can save your life, so I need to get more..."

Lingxi insisted, "No! Even if you give it to me, I won't take it. Now, I'll find something good for you. My eyes are sharp, you know!"

Long Chen couldn't do anything about her, so he just wandered around the Yibao Pavilion, while Lingxi was the one truly searching for spirit medicines.

"Let's see what the dog nose can find, hahaha..."

"Damn, ungrateful guy, I'm doing this for you..."

At this point, Lingxi paused, then became excited and whispered, "Hey, did you see that thing called the Rejuvenation Fruit?"

"Did this little girl really find something good?"

Long Chen was surprised and quickly looked in the direction Lingxi pointed. Indeed, there was a black fruit, about the size of a fist, sealed in a package, with no obvious features.

"Rejuvenation Fruit, Intermediate Rank Spirit Medicine. Its function is to heal injuries, effective for experts below the initial Earth Dan Realm. Price: 20 contribution points..."

Reading the description next to the Rejuvenation Fruit, Long Chen subconsciously read out the key points, but he was puzzled, "Xiaoxi, Intermediate Rank healing spirit medicines are common in the Yibao Pavilion, and the Rejuvenation Fruit's healing effect is not good. Other Intermediate Rank spirit medicines are priced at over 50 contribution points..."

"That's because you lack knowledge and don't know the wonders of the Rejuvenation Fruit! Listen to me, buy it right away, or you'll miss out!"

"But I only have 21 contribution points left..."

"Annoying, if you don't buy it, I won't talk to you!"

Long Chen had no choice but to spend 20 contribution points to get the seemingly ordinary Rejuvenation Fruit.

Seeing a clearly non-Earth Dan Realm martial artist buy this healing spirit medicine, the staff member was puzzled, "If you're using it yourself, I can recommend some Initial Rank healing spirit medicines, like Yunling Grass, which you can buy several for one contribution point."

Long Chen quickly declined.

The staff member immediately looked at him with a disdainful expression and ignored him.

Long Chen was secretly frustrated.

"Xiaoxi, if you make me waste these contribution points, I'll beat you up when I get back!"

"Whatever! You're ungrateful. Without me, you wouldn't have discovered the wonders of the Rejuvenation Fruit. It's not a healing spirit medicine, but it's being sold as one, which is ridiculous!"

Lingxi looked angry, eager to show off in front of Long Chen, and hurriedly urged him to leave.

"This girl is mysterious, but she always brings me benefits. I should trust her, I guess!"

Although she was a bit annoying, Long Chen actually trusted Lingxi a lot. Now that his contribution points were spent, staying here was pointless. Plus, he was eager to know the true value of the Rejuvenation Fruit, so he decided to head back.

By now, morning had passed, and the Yibao Pavilion was crowded with people. Long Chen was just a minor figure among them.

"The Lingwu Clan has a strict hierarchy, and even the Yibao Pavilion is divided by levels. I'm only at the lowest level, so I can only access the first floor of the Yibao Pavilion. Here, there are only Initial Rank and some Intermediate Rank items. I guess the second and third floors have the truly good things. When will I be able to go up there..."

Just as Long Chen was about to leave the Yibao Pavilion, he suddenly felt a cold gaze fixating on him. He looked up and saw Feng Wutian, who had given identity jade tokens to Long Chen and others, walking through the door.

Seeing the cold and stern young man at the door, Long Chen remembered everything Liu Lan had told him last night. Indeed, when Feng Wutian saw Long Chen, his eyes flashed with icy killing intent.

Feng Wutian was dressed in orange and white brocade, looking noble and elegant. His eyes had a faint orange hue, while Long Chen, though handsome, could not compare to Feng Wutian in any way.

"Brother Wutian, Feng Lingye is over there, I'll take you..."

Beside Feng Wutian was a girl in a light red dress. She was very beautiful, with cherry lips, a slender waist, and a tall figure, attracting many admiring glances from men, especially with her sweet voice that made people feel itchy inside.

Long Chen thought that if this girl were a bit older, she would be as stunning as Liu Lan. However, looking at her, he felt she bore some resemblance to Liu Lan.

"Brother Wutian?"

The girl saw Feng Wutian suddenly stop and was puzzled. She looked at Long Chen, a mere outsider, with confusion.

"Brother Wutian, why are you looking at him?"

Feng Wutian ignored her, his cold gaze locked on Long Chen.

Seeing Long Chen take Feng Wutian's attention, the girl's face showed annoyance, and her gaze toward Long Chen became increasingly cold.

At this moment, Feng Wutian stopped two meters in front of Long Chen, looking at him coldly. The people around them were startled, sensing the tension between them, and began to gather around, pointing and whispering.

"Isn't that Feng Wutian from the Qingyang Hall? Why does he seem to care about this unknown guy?"

"How would we know?"

Looking at this unyielding young man, Feng Wutian's face was indifferent.

Long Chen could feel the cold killing intent and the peak Dan Realm aura emanating from him. Although he could kill a small Dan Realm martial artist like Huang Feiyang, he would be helpless against a peak Dan Realm martial artist like Feng Wutian.

"Is this Long Chen?"

Feng Wutian's voice was calm.

The girl beside him had never heard of Long Chen, but seeing Feng Wutian's hostility, she was also unhappy. "Kid, my brother Wutian is asking you a question. Answer quickly, or you'll regret it!"

After saying this, she looked at Feng Wutian with a flattering gaze, but seeing his continued coldness, she vented her anger on Long Chen, her large eyes glaring at him, filled with killing intent!

Hearing the name Long Chen, a Qingyang Hall martial artist remembered and whispered to his companion, "This Long Chen is the most promising new member we absorbed into the Qingyang Hall. A few days ago, he went on a mission with Huang Feiyang and Wen Ya. Huang Feiyang is said to have disappeared. Could it be that Huang Feiyang's disappearance is related to Long Chen?"

"It's possible! I heard that during the clan entry selection, Long Chen injured Huang Feiyang's younger brother!"

Another Qingyang Hall martial artist added. The information they shared gradually spread, and soon everyone knew about Long Chen in the Qingyang Hall.

"When he entered the clan, he was at the eighth level of the Dragon Vein Realm. How could a Dragon Vein Realm person make a small Dan Realm person suffer? I think it's just a rumor."

"But how do you explain Feng Wutian targeting Long Chen?"

"Let's just wait and see..."

...

When I participated in the Scorpio Constellation burst update event, I was always worried that the requirements I set were too low, and the number of burst chapters was too high. If the readers voted too much, I wouldn't be able to handle it. Later, I realized I was overthinking it.
