Tan Yun understood that disciples could enter and exit Fang City without the need to pay spirit stones. He observed the exchange between the fat man and the law enforcement disciple and guessed that the fat man was someone who often bullied the disposable disciples!
"You fat pig, if it weren't for the fact that I can't make too much noise right now, I'd definitely make your parents not recognize you! Just wait, when I leave the city, I'll deal with you!"
"Cut the nonsense; fifty stones is already quite generous," the law enforcement disciple boasted arrogantly. "If you dare to say another word, it'll cost you a hundred low-grade spirit stones."
"Alright, alright, I won't say anything more." Tan Yun replied, taking out a mid-grade spirit stone from his Qiankun Ring and handing it to the disciple.
The reason Tan Yun was wasting words with the law enforcement disciple was that he wanted to leave this memory for future use when he left the city...
The law enforcement disciple directly pocketed the spirit stone and said, "The extra fifty low-grade spirit stones will count as your fee for entering the city next time. Now you can scram!"
Tan Yun nodded obediently, but as he turned to step through the city gate, his expression darkened, and he thought to himself, "It won't be long before you regret this!"
Taking a deep breath, Tan Yun summoned his flying sword and flew towards the two major auction houses in the center of Fang City.
Huangfu Fang City had two main auction houses.
One was the Huangfu Shengxing, established directly under the sovereign's authority.
The other was the Treasures Gathering Auction House, created by an unknown individual whose identity remains a mystery to this day.
Both auction houses shared the principle of prioritizing credibility; no one dared to cause trouble within. Perhaps there had been incidents in the past, but no one had come out alive!
Moreover, the two auction houses faced each other across the street.
The reason Tan Yun was heading to the two auction houses was that they were the places with the most foot traffic and density.
They were the most suitable locations for him to sell the soul springs!
As for whether he could sell the soul springs, Tan Yun wasn't worried at all, since soul springs had always been valuable but hard to find.
After a moment, Tan Yun kept his head down and discreetly flew three hundred miles, arriving at the main road between the two auction houses.
During his flight, Tan Yun noticed that law enforcement disciples were patrolling every few miles.
The ancient and charming streets, paved with blue stones, were bustling with disciples dressed in the robes of the nine major factions. The male disciples were exceptionally handsome, and the female disciples were breathtakingly beautiful, filling Huangfu Fang City with youthful poetry.
The shops, stalls, and taverns on both sides of the street stretched as far as the eye could see.
Within the city, there were hundreds of shops selling elixirs, formations, talismans, and magic treasures, among which four shops had the most complete inventories and unmatched reputation compared to others.
These four shops were the "Ten Thousand Treasures Spiritual Pavilion," established by the Artifact Lineage's higher-ups; the "Hall of Desolate Talismans," set up by the Talismans Lineage's higher-ups; the "Holy Elixir Immortal Pavilion," created by the Danmai's higher-ups; and the "Pavilion of Endless Illusions," established by the Formation Lineage's higher-ups.
Apart from these four shops, the other stores selling elixirs, formations, talismans, and artifacts were run by inner disciples and immortal disciples who rented the shops after paying spirit stones to the sect.
At this moment, Tan Yun stood in the street between the two major auction houses, looking at the bustling entrances of both with satisfaction. A place with a lot of people was undoubtedly the best choice for selling goods.
Tan Yun took out a brocade banner he had prepared in advance, which read "Goods for Soul Springs."
