The Rich Lady

There were over hundreds and thousands of people gathered at the north plaza, it was extremely vibrant and crowded, but the side for the VIPS were much quieter because only people with positions in the Sky Central City could afford to sit there. There was a barrier enchantment all around it that isolated the two sides and there were all sorts of delicious desserts, all of which could help improve cultivation, but to existences at and above the Spirit Master Cultivator realm, all these improvements were negligible.

But Su Yun did not care, he had a low cultivation and all of these would be extremely effective for him, one of each delicacy would cost him more than 10 cultivation coins, he could not stop, and started to eat ferociously, not caring about his own image.

Watching how Su Yun gulp down on his food, the Nan Gong Family people beside frowned.

“Cousin brother, eat slower.”

Zhang Ying Li secretly glanced at Nan Gong Gu and said with a tinge of helplessness.

“Hey hey, are those people over there people from the Nan Gong Family?”

“Yes it is.”

“Then who is that lady seated beside Nan Gong Qing? She is a superb beauty!”

“My friend, please do not speak recklessly, that lady is the precious daughter of the Huai Rou Family, she is extremely pampered.”

“The precious daughter of the Huai Rou Family? Why are people from the Huai Rou Family in Sky Central City? For the Nan Gong Family?”

“It is said that the precious daughter of the Huai Rou Family is engaged to Young Master Nan Gong Qing. Huai Rou Mu Yu has a strong temperament, she was the one to initiate interacting with her future dual cultivation partner and if she is not satisfied, maybe she will rescind the engagement. Currently, the Huai Rou family are so powerful, the Nan Gong Family would definitely not dare to say no if they were to do it.”

“Sigh, but come to think of it, there was news recently about the Nan Gong Family saying that Nan Gong Qing was beaten up severely outside and narrowly escaped with his life, even his cultivation had dropped to the fifth stage of the Spirit Star Realm! With such a cultivation, how is he compatible with the girl from Huai Rou Family?”

“What? Fifth stage of the Spirit Star Realm? Isn’t that the same as being a crippled?”

“Right!”

“Young master Qing is a nice man, he isn’t arrogant to us vagabond cultivators, how can such a person meet with such bad luck?”

“That’s right, I even drank wine with him the last time!”

Everyone who were participating in the Pill Furnace General Assembly all started to discuss in small voices.

Just then, an uproar suddenly occurred again at the entrance of the Pill Furnace General Assembly, the clamors were so loud that it caused others to be surprised before noticing another group of young men and ladies walking over.

“It’s the Feng Family!”

“The Feng Family are here too? Hehe, the Feng Family and the Nan Gong Family are at odds with each other, maybe we will have a good show to watch today.”

At the front of the Feng Family was the Feng Mo Qiang that went against Su Yun and prevented him from entering the Feng Residence that day.

He had a smile on his face with his hand raised and greeting the people around, portraying a pleased and easy going look, but his gaze was still fixated on the Nan Gong Family.

Su Yun had just swallowed a crystal jade fruit that he was munching on, when his eyes swept towards Feng Mo Qiang, and a cold intent flashed past his eyes.

~Him!~

Su Yun was a man that remembered grievances, and never forgotten about that day before the Feng Residence gates, where Feng Mo Qiang had humiliated him, but he was not an impulsive person either, and knew he did not have the strength to provoke Feng Mo Qiang.

“Is this beautiful lady Miss Huai Rou Mu Yu from the Huai Rou Family?” Feng Mo Qiang had already noticed Huai Rou Mu Yu sitting there quietly, he immediately went forward and bowed towards Huai Rou Mu Yu: “I am Feng Mo Qiang, Greetings, Miss Huai Rou.”

Huai Rou Mu Yu stood up and greeted him, then said lightly: “I have never met Young Noble Feng before, how does Young Noble Feng know that I am Huai Rou Mu Yu?”

“Hahahaha, how is it difficult? For a gem to drop into a pile of crappy stones, how can I not recognize the gem?” Feng Mo Qiang laughed out loud.

Upon saying that, everybody in the Nan Gong Family all stood up in fury.

“Bastard, you dare call us crappy stones!”

“Feng Mo Qiang, are you challenging us?”

Nan Gong Gu said coldly.

“Challenge? Is what I said considered a challenge? That is… Unless you are admitting that you’re all crappy stones?” Feng Mo Qiang sneered.

“You asshole!”

Nan Gong Gu’s anger surged out, and was about the brandish out his weapon.

“Hey, I say, old lad Feng, you dare to insinuate that my Mu Yu is a stone? You should only say what you can bear!”

Just then, a bellow came out from the side.

Feng Mo Qiang looked over, to see a man with a hat that covered his face throwing away a green colored fruit and suddenly standing up, pointing straight at him and started scolding: “Your Feng Family, other than Feng Ling Sheng, what are all of you little shits doing here, daring to come here to behave atrociously? You even dare the humiliate my future wife! Are you trying to get expelled from Sky Central City?”

Feng Mo Qiang was startled for a moment, he noticed the order badge by the man’s waist and then reacted: “You are Nan Gong Qing?”

“I am your father!”

“Heh, Nan Gong lad, I heard that you’re just at the fifth stage of the Spirit Star Realm, you’ve already become a crippled man and you still dare to speak like that? You wish to expel my Feng Family off Sky Central City? You can’t do it!” Feng Mo Qiang chuckled.

“Can the Huai Rou Family do it?” Su Yun said coldly.

Feng Mo Qiang frowned slightly.

Su Yun snorted: “You humiliated Mu Yu saying she is a stone, are you saying that her body looks like one? Or her brain is one? Are you not humiliating the Huai Rou Aristocratic Family? Mu Yu, can you tolerate this? Later when we go back, we should report this to your father and your grandfather, if the Huai Rou aristocratic family wants to eradicate the Feng Family, that would only be a matter of time.”

“…” Hearing that, Feng Mo Qiang immediately perspired in cold sweat, he never expected Su Yun to dare exaggerate things! He immediately turned to Huai Rou Mu Yu and said: “Miss Huai Rou, I never had the intention to humiliate the Huai Rou Family”

Before he could even finish speaking, Su Yun interrupted him again: “Is a Gem not a stone? Can a stone be a crappy stone? So calling her a gem is calling her a crappy stone! If that’s not humiliating, then what is?”

“You are clearly trying to distort the idea!” Feng Mo Qiang became annoyed, seeing that Su Yun was difficult to argue with, he immediately stopped trying to argue and turned everyone’s focus away from the subject and roared: “Nan Gong Qing! Today, I will have to teach your Nan Gong Family a lesson!”

With that said, he was prepared to make a move.

Seeing that, the Nan Gong Family all stood up, all prepared to retaliate.

The scene immediately became tense.

The organisers did not dare butt in, if they were to provoke either sides, they would truly be unlucky, and thus could only stand by one side and watch anxiously.

“Everyone, please stop.”

Just then, Huai Rou Mu Yu spoke up.

Seeing that, no matter what, everyone had to give her some face, furthermore they were in a public place with many people around, they too did not wish to stir anything and thus backed down.

“It is only because of Miss Huai Rou that I will not be squabbling with you!” Feng Mo Qiang said coldly, he then cupped his fists towards Huai Rou Mu Yu and turned to return to his own seat.

“Consider yourselves lucky today!” Nan Gong Hong Yan shouted.

Both parties separated.

Even before the Assembly had begun, both sides were already on edge, causing everyone to be excited. The atmosphere on site was buzzing with noise and activities, but the majority of them were not talking about the event but the hatred between both families.

Time had come, the supervisors of the few hundred pill shops of the Sky Central City had gathered, with 100 pill furnaces prepared at the center area of the North Plaza with professional pill masters standing at the side of each pill furnace, a few of them who required more than 10 days of refining were tempering and refining pills at their furnaces. Calculating the time of the event and the time of completion for their pills, they managed to coordinate their pill refinements at the final moments for the compounding. The air was filled with sets of fragrance, causing everyone on site to be intoxicated by it.

The most authoritative grand pillmaster of the entire Sky Central City, Lan Song Nian had been elected to take charge of the event, he would appraise every single pill that was created, which would be auctioned out, the price was dictated by the crowd, and thus many people had long prepared their cultivation coins, planning to purchase a pill suitable for themselves.

Lan Song Nian, who had long white hair and was dressed in pale yellow robes walked into the center of the pill furnaces with a cane, he glanced around and then shouted out with his coarse voice: “A very warm welcome, esteemed guests. Thank you all for coming today, I am Lan Song Nian, and I am pleased to announce that the Sky Central City’s 9358th Pill Furnace General Assembly will officially begin!!”

Upon saying that, splendor of lights blossomed from the center, the dazzling light aura shot out in all directions, attracting the eyes of every person present.

A pill furnace had opened! The intoxicating scent pervaded through the entire place.

“Now, the first pill of the General Assembly has been released, Zhang Xin, the mid grade pillmaster that hails from ‘Nine Moons Pill Furnace Mill’, is the pillmaster of the pill called ‘Armor Breaking Pill’, it is not a pill for self consumption, but to be used to kill your opponent. It is very easily used, just shatter it into powder and throw it onto your opponent’s body, it will disallow their body from being protected by Profound Spirit Qi and also disrupt the Spirit Qi in their body, causing the target’s strength to drop greatly. Regardless of whether human or beast, it is extremely effective and is an essential pill proven by experienced cultivators! With my evaluation, this pill costs around 300 cultivation coins, we will thus begin the auction for it with the opening price of 300 cultivation coins, fellow cultivators, name your price!” Lan Song Nian said slowly.

With that said, the surroundings immediately flew into uproars, it was like opening the lid of a deep fryer, it instantly flared up with all sort of prices shouting out, but the prices increase were very small.

“301!”

“302!”

“305!”

“400!”

Su Yun looked at the pill, he then turned his head towards Huai Rou Mu Yu beside him and said: “Mu Yu, we are going to become husband and wife soon, are you able to do a few things for your future husband?”

“Huh?” Huai Rou Mu Yu turned and look at Su Yun, and she could vaguely see the disgusting smile beneath the hat.

“This armor breaking pill looks good, but I do not have much cultivation coins, your Huai Rou Family is so rich, buy it for me.” Su Yun said without any sense of shame.

Upon hearing that, the people around were instantly stupefied, and looked at Su Yun in surprise.

At an auction, normal people would use their own money to spend on beautiful ladies to impress them, but this Nan Gong Qing was extremely weird, not only did he not use his own money, he even requested his future wife to purchase it for him.

“What’s in this guys head?”

Nan Gong Hong Yan could not resist but secretly scold under her breath.

“Humph, truly throwing the face of our Nan Gong Family!”

Nan Gong Gu said coldly.

“Young Master Qing, it isn’t worthwhile to do this right?”

“This isn’t a question about wanting face, it’s a matter of Miss Huai Rou’s face now!”

“What’s wrong with Young Master Qing? He is extremely weird.”

The disciples of Nan Gong Family who stood by the side could not help but ask.

Zhang Ying Li’s face looked unhappily, she grabbed onto Su Yun’s arm and shook him: “Cousin brother, if you want this pill, I will buy it for you ok? Why trouble outsiders?”

“When she marries over, she will no longer be an outsider.”

“Humph!” Zhang Ying Li pouted with an unhappy look on her face.

Huai Rou Mu Yu turned and glanced at Su Yun, her face had a thread of seriousness. She spoke gently: “Young Master Qing, are you being serious?”

“Of course.” Su Yun nodded his head.

Huai Rou Mu Yu remained quiet for a moment, then nodded her head at the servant beside her.

Seeing that, the servant was extremely furious, she stared straight at Su Yun angrily, then stood up and shouted: “My Family’s young miss will pay ten thousand cultivation coins!!”

Upon saying that, the entire plaza was shook.

“10 thousand cultivation coins!! Who is so extravagant?

“It’s Miss Huai Rou Mu Yu!!”

“Miss Huai Rou Mu Yu is calling for 10 thousand cultivation coins!”

“Too surprising.”

The clamors continued nonstop, every pair of eyes looked towards Huai Rou Mu Yu in shock.

The pillmaster who refined the Armor Breaking Pill was so excited that he was smiling from ear to ear, 10 thousand cultivation coins! He would earn at least 4 thousand from it, the Armor Breaking Pill’s materials, manufacturing costs etc was less than 400 cultivation coins, which meant he had struck gold.

But what shocked everyone was Huai Rou Mu Yu’s wealth! 10 thousand cultivation coins was not a small amount, many people’s entire family did not even have that amount of wealth, but Huai Rou Mu Yu did not even frown at that number, showing the dense and immense wealth of the Huai Rou Family.

In this world, money was power, with money, one would have everything.

Without question, the first pill landed in Huai Rou Mu Yu’s possession, but she did not even look at it, and got Xiao Hong to hand it over to Su Yun.

“Thank you future wife!”

Su Yun laughed without any sense of shame, and then kept the pills inside his storage ring.

“What kind of person would do this!” Xiao Hong groaned as she stood by the side angrily.

“Is Nan Gong Qing so pleased with his current situation that he lost his own sense of measure? To do such a thing, it truly is an eyesore.” Feng Mo Qiang sneered and spoke to the people around him.

“He truly has no shame at all!”

After the first pill was sold, the second pill was released not long later. The first pill was sold at such a prosperous price, causing Lan Song Nian to be happy and he started to introduce the second pill out loud.

“Clear Cave Pill, Using the Original Cave Liquid, Congealed Essence Paste, Jade Shell Spirit Beast’s heart, Three Ancient Tai Flowers etc and over 10 types of famous materials and formed with three different types of flames, this pill will improve a person’s cultivation growth rate for 10 years after consumption, starting price 5000 cultivation coins.”

Hearing that, Su Yun’s eyes lit up, he turned and said two words: “Mu Yu.”
