Chapter 523: Mysterious Young Master~
Witnessing the knowledgeable old man at the Peak of the Core Formation Realm suddenly turn around and ask for spirit stones, Chu Yang felt like he could do something similar as well to earn spirit stones.
At the very least, he should be able to earn the few spirit stones that he needed to become and external member of the Explorer Unionâ¦
As Chu Yang was thinking about how to do something similar to the old man, a well-dressed servant suddenly appeared out of nowhere before walking up to the old man with a dignified expression on his face.
"Here, this should be enough for you to buy yourself a new weapon! My young master is quite interested in knowing more about what you just mentioned."
Throwing a large pouch filled with spirit stones over after saying this, the servant waited for the old man to look through the pouch fille with spirit stones. Only returning after receiving a positive nod from the old man. Signalling that he was satisfied with the number of spirit stones in the pouch.
Even if he was someone at the Peak of the Core Formation Realm, no one would ever say no to spirit stones. Other than that, the old man at the Peak Core Formation Realm Expert had managed to spot a few high-quality pills inside the pouch as well.
"Hehe, now that a generous young master was kind enough to donate a bit to this poor old man, I have to continue where I left off earlier!"
Along with the laugher of the old man as he smiled happily at the spirit stones he had managed to get pretty much for free, he slowly began describing the three big religions of the Sky Empire.
â¦
"Order of the Sky God, Followers of the Fire God, and Cult of the Scarlet Moonâ¦"
Muttering the names of the three biggest religions inside the Sky Empire, Chu Yang could not help feeling a bit regretful watching the old man finishing his description of the three.
In the end, the only useful thing he got from what the old man said was the names of the three big religions and the fact that they were powerful to the degree that the imperial family of the Sky Empire did not dare do anything to themâ¦
Shaking his head as he watched the old man prepare to leave, Chu Yang suddenly spotted the servant from earlier appear in front of the old man again.
"Old man, do you want to join my young master for a chat, he is quite interested in knowing if you have anything more interesting tales on youâ¦"
Saying this, the servant took out a spirit stone and showed it to the old man.
"High-grade spirit stone!"
Seeing this stone, the old man could not help exclaiming in shock. After all, a high-grade spirit stone was something he had never managed to get his hands on! Not only would a high-grade spirit stone be useful to him, but it would also present a chance for him to better prepare himself for the Nascent Soul Realm and at least lower his chances of death when going through the cloud tribulation!
The old man quickly lowered his voice after his exclamation before looking around himself. Only to see the crowd that was about to disperse suddenly coming to a stop, as all of them greedily eyed the high-grade spirit stone.
This was especially true for a few other elderly Core Formation Realm Experts also present at the scene.
"Hmph, don't even think about it!"
Along with the snort of the servant who had showed off the high-grade spirit stone, a terrifying aura quickly enveloped the surrounding people who had stopped dispersing after discovering the high-grade spirit stone.
This person is also someone at the Peak of the Core Formation Realm!
Instantly managing to see through the strength of the servant, Chu Yang could not help feeling amazed at the strength of the servant.
At first, he had not really bothered trying to see the other parties cultivation, as he just introduced himself as a servant of some young master, but now it looked like this servant was someone quite powerful.
Even the old man who was also at the Peak of the Core Formation Realm was taken aback upon realizing the harmless looking servant had suddenly turned into an expert that was no weaker than himself!
"W-where is your young master� I would be more than willing to talk a bit about my past encounters and what little I have learned during my time adventuring throughout the Sky Empire!"
Answering in a slightly nervous tone as he realized he might have encountered the son of a bigshot; the old man quickly showed a kind expression as he said this to the servant. Not taking his eyes off the high-grade spirit stone from beginning to end.
"Follow meâ¦"
Rolling his eyes slightly upon seeing the focus of the old man's eyes, the servant quickly handed the high-grade spirit stone over to him before both of them began leaving under the eyes of the small crowd of people that had gathered.
I wonder who the young master is, for him to have such a strong servant by his sideâ¦
At this thought, Chu Yang curiously observed the servant, as he and the old man made their way towards a large and luxurious carriage located only a short distance away.
Given how respectful the servant suddenly became after reaching this carriage, Chu Yang could easily guess that the young master should be inside the carriage.
"You may enter!"
As everyone observed the carriage of the mysterious young master, a childish voice suddenly echoed out from within the carriage, as the servant bowed his head before leading the old man inside. Not allowing any of the people waiting outside to see the mysterious young master.
The only thing that Chu Yang and the others could determine, was the fact that the young master was a childâ¦
"Wha- there is actually a soundproofing formation on the carriage?!"
"No way⦠Something like that, on a carriage!? How expensive is that!?"
"The owner of the carriage, I think we encountered the son of some bigshot in the Nascent Soul Realm!"
Along with the voices of a group of old men and women who were trying their best to not outright attack the carriage for the high-grade spirit stone. The luxurious carriage slowly began moving before turning around a corner and disappearing.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
After the carriage disappeared behind the corner, a large portion of elderly men and women at the Core Formation Realm also left⦠Likely to try and rob the high-grade spirit stone and any other treasures the mysterious young master had on himâ¦
As for potentially offending a Nascent Soul Realm Expert? They did not really think much of it, as they would just have to escape to some other kingdom before the Nascent Soul Realm Expert found out.
In the first place, they were all adventures who travelled the world, so what if they would never be able to return to the Flame Mountain City in the future!
If they could increase their chances to breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm, it was a small price to pay!
Chu Yang also understood these old men and women's thought process and didn't intend to get involved.
In the first place, he had only just reached the First Stage of the Core Formation Realm, there was no way he wanted to face off against a group of Peak Core Formation Realm Experts desperate for anything that would increase their chances of reaching the Nascent Soul Realm!
"Hah⦠hopefully that mysterious young master has something to keep himself safe from those ravenous old people..."
Shaking his head as he muttered this to himself while looking in the direction that the mysterious carriage had disappeared to, Chu Yang focused back onto the problem at hand, he was still broke!
â¦
[System detected disciple Chu Yang encountered a mid-tier young master. Host is recommended to allow his disciple to confront the young master, this will bring benefits from ancient magic treasures to your disciple experiencing a sudden increase in strength. The benefits depend on the young master's tier!]
At the same time Chu Yang was watching the luxurious carriage slowly disappear around a corner, Xuan Hao, who was in the process of teaching Bai Ning about the Qi Condensation Realm, suddenly froze as a system notification he had not seen for a long time appeared in front of him.
"Master? Is something wrong?"
Suddenly seeing his master freeze up all of a sudden, Bai Ning in a worried tone. Thinking that he had done something wrong.
"Ah? Ah! It's nothing. Let's continue. After having gathered your qi together-"
Seeing the worried look on Bai Ning's face, Xuan Hao threw the notification from the system to the back of his mind and resumed guiding Bai Ning after reassuring him that everything was fine.
If something really happened, Chu Yang would contact him through the communication talisman he had given himâ¦
