“Hmm.” Tan Yun nodded and released his divine consciousness into the Ancestral Ring.
After observing, he found that it indeed contained the twenty-seven types of crafting materials he needed.
“Brother Chu, how many Ancestor Stones in total?” Tan Yun asked.
Chu Heng replied, “If it were someone else, I would definitely sell at the original price. However, since I feel a connection with Brother Tan, how about this? I’ll sell it to you at an 80% discount.”
“In total, it’s twenty million three hundred thousand Supreme Ancestor Stones, and I’ll round it down for you, so you only need to pay twenty million.”
Tan Yun clasped his fists and said, “Thank you very much.”
After paying the twenty million Supreme Ancestor Stones, he said, “Alright, we will take our leave now.”
“Hmm, take care.” Chu Heng smiled, and as if remembering something, asked, “Brother Tan, where are you headed later? Are you returning to the Four Arts Star Domain?”
“Not for now.” Tan Yun smiled and replied, “I still need to buy some fire seeds, and then I’ll return to the Four Arts Star Domain.”
“Oh.” After nodding, Chu Heng said earnestly, “Brother Tan, there are some things I need to remind you about.”
“Although you preserved the Four Arts Star Domain during this Four Arts Tournament, you’ve offended many people.”
“Moreover, everyone knows you obtained ninety million Supreme Ancestor Stones today. Even though you are a Holy Son, your cultivation level is still quite low.”
“You need to be extra careful on your way back to the Four Arts Star Domain!”
Tan Yun smiled faintly, “Thank you for the reminder, Brother Chu. We will meet again another day. Farewell.”
“I’ll see you off.” Chu Heng smiled and followed Tan Yun downstairs. After sending Tan Yun out of the Treasures of Dao Pavilion, he turned back and stepped into the main hall on the first floor.
“Second Young Master, I’m not sure if I should say something.” The young attendant named Han Feng said quietly.
“Speak.” Chu Heng said.
“Second Young Master, the family head will soon be appointed as the second vice palace master, overseeing the Human Race Star Domain. With your noble status, why are you showing good face to a nobody like Tan Yun?”
“Also, Tan Yun has embarrassed the Eldest Young Master in the alchemical arts tournament!”
Hearing this, Chu Heng laughed and patted Han Feng on the shoulder, saying darkly, “I will definitely take Tan Yun’s life!”
……
Half an hour later.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh—”
The bright moon faded, dark clouds gathered, and the night was as black as ink, pouring down with torrential rain.
“Hahaha, is Second Young Master Chu here?”
With a hearty laugh echoing through the rain, a remarkably tall young man with long hair flew down from the void, striding confidently into the Treasures of Dao Pavilion.
This long-haired youth was the number one powerhouse of the Beast Clan Star Domain's Inner Sect: Lion Blaze, whose true form was the Destructive Wild Lion!
It is said that he possesses the overwhelming power to eliminate elite disciples of the sixth layer of the ancestral emperor realm!
“Yes, of course.” Chu Heng rose from the jade chair in the hall and cupped his fists toward the long-haired youth, “Brother Wild Lion, how have you been recently?”
“Hahaha, Brother Chu, I was feeling quite down, as I couldn’t find the Destruction Demon Stone and Life Wood!” Lion Blaze exclaimed excitedly, “However, when I learned that Brother Chu has the Destruction Demon Stone and Life Wood, I rushed over immediately.”
“Brother Chu, you’ve really helped me out this time. As long as I get the Destruction Demon Stone and Life Wood, I will...”
Before Lion Blaze could finish, Chu Heng sighed, “Brother, you’ve come a step too late. The Destruction Demon Stone and Life Wood have been bought.”
“What!” Lion Blaze looked incredulous, “Brother Chu, what did you say? They’ve been bought?”
“Why? Did I not ask you to reserve them for me?”
