Chapter 992, Country Bumpkin

Translator: Silavin

 

With ten thousand drops of Spirit Liquid in hand, Qin Yichen returned once more to the Treasure Area, purchasing that Mysterious Purple Cloud Vine.

 

Upon observing the golden card in Qin Yichen’s hand, the serving female attendant’s attitude immediately became several degrees more respectful.

 

Ordinary customers, though all of high status from various major Human Race Forces, only required courteous treatment. However, those possessing this golden card commanded her reverence.

 

Quite smoothly, Qin Yichen acquired the Mysterious Purple Cloud Vine.

 

Subsequently, he brought Feng Qianxue to browse throughout this Treasure Area.

 

Within the Treasure Area, all manner of peculiar and strange items existed…

 

For instance, miraculous plants that bloomed within minutes, then withered again within minutes.

 

Also fish that, upon leaving water, could swim through the air.

 

Beyond these, various dazzling miraculous treasured wonders existed in countless numbers.

 

Each item here, if placed in the Imperial Dynasties or even various major Sacred Lands, would trigger bloody storms.

 

This revealed Ancient Jade Pavilion’s profound foundation.

 

This truly opened Feng Qianxue’s eyes. Even that ever simple Chen Hui continuously exclaimed in wonder.

 

“Wow, that’s a Feathered Crow Gemstone! I remember fighting another group for three days and three nights over one of those things before finally snatching it…”

 

Chen Hui loudly exclaimed, making it obvious at a glance that he was someone who had not seen the world. However, Qin Yichen did not mind. On the contrary, he even echoed along.

 

He fundamentally did not care about others’ gazes.

 

“Where did these country bumpkins come from? Truly ignorant!”

 

“Really noisy!”

 

Though they did not care, such reaction drew numerous contemptuous gazes. Quite a few people looked at them with complete disdain.

 

Everyone capable of entering here possessed distinguished status. When has anyone ever displayed such discourteous embarrassing behaviour?

 

“Look quickly, Older Brother Yichen, that thing is so beautiful.” As if influenced by Qin Yichen and Chen Hui, Feng Qianxue also acted like a curious little girl, pointing at a wine-red crystal, her eyes practically sparkling with stars as she softly exclaimed.

 

“Do you like it?” Qin Yichen swept a glance, smiling indulgently toward Feng Qianxue.

 

Though there was desire in her heart, after scanning the price tag below, Feng Qianxue also secretly stuck out her tongue. It was worth a full thousand-plus drops of Spirit Liquid.

 

She was not frightened by this price. After all, with her status as the Feng Family’s Young Mistress, she had seen even more precious items than this. She simply felt that although this item attracted her, it was far from worth this price.

 

“Silly girl, as long as you like it.” Observing Feng Qianxue’s changing expressions, Qin Yichen chuckled softly, leaning toward her ear and speaking tenderly.

 

Feeling the warm breath transmitted from her ear, Feng Qianxue couldn’t help blushing slightly, bashfully lowering her head.

 

“*Tch* Bunch of country bumpkins. Scared silly by seeing this price, right?” Just as Qin Yichen prepared to purchase this crystal, a piercing sharp voice rang out from behind them.

 

Upon hearing this, Qin Yichen’s brow furrowed. Turning his gaze, he saw a woman wearing luxurious attire approaching amidst numerous young men’s clustering, heading this direction.

 

That piercing voice had clearly emerged from this woman’s mouth.

 

Regarding appearance, this woman could definitely be qualified as someone superior to ten thousand. Moreover, from those many followers beside her, one could easily deduce this woman’s status was probably quite significant.

 

“Brat, what are you staring at? Don’t even recognize Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling?”

 

“A country bumpkin. Mind your station. Keep staring and don’t blame us for gouging out your eyes!”

 

Before Qin Yichen could finish speculating about this woman’s identity, numerous followers behind the woman had already angrily shouted, as if Qin Yichen had defiled their goddess.

 

“Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling? Truly never heard of her.” Qin Yichen shrugged his shoulders, speaking with complete bewilderment.

 

Witnessing his appearance, those followers were both furious and resentful. If they were not within Saints Heavenly City, someone would probably have already lost control and attacked him.

 

“Just a country bumpkin. How could he have the fortune to hear our Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling’s reputation?” One by one, the followers coldly smiled, using this to console the fury within their hearts.

 

“Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling, that crystal suits you quite well. How about I purchase it for you?” A financially extravagant youth even smiled as he spoke.

 

However, beneath his expression lurked a concealed trace of reluctance.

 

Spending over a thousand drops of Spirit Liquid to purchase a crystal of unknown function. If this could win Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling’s heart, that would be fine. But if it produced no effect, it would pain him for quite some time.

 

After all, even a Scared Master Candidate like Mu Yanfeng could not bear to waste so much Spirit Liquid. How much less these followers, who did not even qualify as Sacred Master Candidates?

 

“Then I’ll trouble Senior Brother.” Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling smiled gracefully toward that follower, her eyes seemingly capable of stealing Souls.

 

“Hehe, of course…” That follower laughed dryly, striding toward that counter with large steps. Though his facial expression could not conceal his reluctance, clearly for the sake of performing before his goddess, he had made the preparations to bleed financially.

 

“Wait!” Suddenly, Qin Yichen waved his hand to intercept him, speaking. “This item was something we noticed first. If you want to buy it, wait until my Qianxue grows tired of playing with it, then I’ll sell it to you.”

 

“Older Brother Yichen…” Upon hearing this, Feng Qianxue’s heart filled with sweetness. Regarding the situation before her, she felt not the slightest worry. Her heart continuously echoed Qin Yichen’s words, [‘my Qianxue’, ‘my…’]

 

Hearing this, that follower’s brow furrowed. According to Ancient Jade Pavilion’s rules, as long as Qin Yichen paid, they truly had no recourse. Most crucially, if the latter could genuinely purchase it, that would save him a considerable sum.

 

“*Hmph.* You buy it? Just you a bunch of country bumpkins? Can you even take out a hundred drops of Spirit Liquid?” However, before that follower could breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling behind him had already coldly snorted, her voice filled with complete disdain. [Wait for others to finish playing before giving it to me? How insulting!]

 

In her view, people displaying such bumpkin-like behaviour fundamentally lacked such financial capability.

 

“Brat, don’t make yourself swollen trying to look imposing. Don’t wager your entire Family fortune out of momentary spite!”

 

“Exactly. Just you people, what qualifies you to enter Ancient Jade Pavilion!?” Seeing Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling speak, numerous followers behind her shrilly clamoured even more.

 

However, these clamouring voices didn’t persist long before abruptly ceasing. All this occurred purely because of the golden card that appeared in Qin Yichen’s hand!

 

“A gold… gold card?!”

 

Sacred Mistress Candidate Ao Ling stared dumbfounded at the item in Qin Yichen’s hand. She understood extremely clearly what this thing represented. This was something even her Sacred Land’s Sacred Master had exhausted every method yet failed to obtain!
