Monarch Of Time

Chapter 43 - 43 Putting up for auction

The person that was hurriedly rushing from the pavilion was Yin Xing, the genius rank 3 bronze grade alchemist of the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ.

Every invitation from the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ had the personal mark of the person who had created it and Yin Xingʼs invitation wasnʼt any different.

Since he knew that this senior would be coming today, Yin Xing had ordered the people at the entrance to immediately inform him if a person who was dressed in black robes and was carrying his invitation were to appear today.

As soon as the disciples stationed at the entrance recognized Yin Xingʼs personal mark in Shun Longʼs invitation, they rushed to inform him that the person he was waiting for had arrived, and Yin Xing in turn hurried towards the entrance.

ʼʼSenior please come in.ʼʼ

As soon as Shun Long and Yin Xing had disappeared inside the pavilion, the people outside started whispering

ʼʼSenior brother, could it be that this person is some kind of senior alchemist who is of even higher rank than alchemist Yin? Wouldnʼt such a person be at the silver grade then?ʼʼ

His senior brother nodded his head as he said

ʼʼMhm, he must definitely be at least in the silver grade if senior Yin came rushing and was so polite to himʼʼ

While these discussions were taking place at the pavilionʼs entrance, Yin Xing was guiding Shun Long deep inside the first floor, towards the depths of the ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ where 2 huge doors were wide open and guards were stationed at the sides.

Shun Long followed Yin Xing as they entered inside, and he noticed that there were 2 paths that they could follow. One path was leading straight ahead after entering the doors, towards the ʼouter seatsʼ where people without invitations would sit. Yin Xing instead led Shun Long through the side entrance until they reached the private booths, where only people with invitations were allowed to seat themselves.

ʼʼSenior, this way pleaseʼʼ Yin Xing said as he pointed towards a private booth with the number 6 on it.

Although the room was relatively small, in terms of luxuriousness it was perhaps even superior to the ʼMystifying Fragrance Pavilionʼ.

The room had a luxurious red couch on the center and a table in front of it filled with food and wine. The ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ had paid a lot of attention to the decorations of these rooms, as they were all meant for important people.

Shun Long took a look at the room before turning his head to look at Yin Xing who was standing behind him and was looking at him eagerly.

Shun Long laughed before saying in that altered heavy voice of his

ʼʼDo you have anything that you want to ask?ʼʼ

Yin Xing hurriedly shook his head as he answered

ʼʼNo senior, I just wanted to know if you find everything to your liking.ʼʼ

ʼʼYes, everything is good so far. Especially this couch that is made from the fur of a peak rank 2 ʼscarlet furred wolfʼʼʼ Shun Long answered

Yin Xingʼs eyes shone as he said

ʼʼAs expected from a great alchemist such as senior, you understood what the couch is made from just by throwing a single glance at itʼʼ

Yin Xing was honestly impressed by Shun Long. A great alchemist had to know, not just how to mix medicinal herbs, but also have a wide knowledge regarding magical beasts.

Shun Long of course had absorbed so much knowledge regarding medicinal herbs, magical beasts, and even the human body, that it was childʼs play for him to understand that this couch was made from the fur of a peak rank 2 magical beast.

Yin Xing looked at Shun Long eagerly as he asked

ʼʼSenior, do you happen to have any more of those ʼQi barrier-breakingʼ pills?ʼʼ

Shun Long just smiled under his robes as Yin Xing continued

ʼʼTo tell the truth to senior, the 5 ʼQi barrier-breakingʼ pills that senior sold to our ʼTreasure Pavilionʼ last time were bought by 2 high-rank Elders of our sect, and they have been pressuring me about them ever since.ʼʼ

Shun Long felt somewhat afraid inside as if his identity were to be exposed, who knew how the sect would react if they were to learn that a rank 7 outer disciple can refine these kinds of medicinal pills? He took a deep breath to steel his nerves and said in a very heavy and stern voice to Yin Xing

ʼʼI hope that there wonʼt be any people learning of our deal, otherwise you can forget about obtaining a single pill from me in the future.ʼʼ

Yin Xing could make out the irritation in Shun Longʼs voice and hurriedly said

ʼʼSenior please rest assured. Although I said that the pills were bought from some mysterious senior, I, Yin Xing would never leak things that senior doesnʼt want other people to know.ʼʼ

Shun Long nodded his head and said

ʼʼThatʼs good thenʼʼ

Then he took out 12 bottles of pills, with 10 pills inside each bottle as he said

ʼʼHere are 120 ʼQi barrier-breakingʼ pills. Do you think you can put them up in todayʼs auction?ʼʼ

Yin Xingʼs eyes shone with excitement when he saw the pills.
