Mortal Seeking Immortal

Before Ye Zhou could ask, the second prince finally spoke: "If you don't want to let me go, why give me hope and play tricks on me, just give me a quick death."

After that, the second prince actually closed his eyes and went to die.

At this time, Xue Mei explained: "Mr. Ye, you don't know that the dozen spiritual plants you want are extremely precious. Even the royal storehouse of Shengyun Country may not have many of them."

Ye Zhou felt disappointed. He didn't expect that with such a strong strength of Shengyun Country, he couldn't get these spiritual plants. It seems that he can only hope for the batch of spiritual plants that Wanbao Auction House will soon send from the headquarters.

After making up his mind, Ye Zhou asked the second prince again: "How many spiritual plants do you want that I want?"

The second prince opened his eyes and carefully stretched out a finger to Ye Zhou. Ye Zhou couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Forget it, one plant is one plant, it's better than nothing.

The second prince took out a pearl-sized black seed from the storage ring and put it in Ye Zhou's hand. Seeing Ye Zhou's eyes freeze instantly, fearing that his life would be in danger, he quickly explained: "This is the seed of the Azure Spiritual Mist Flower. You only need to cultivate it patiently for 1,500 years, and it will sooner or later bloom the Azure Spiritual Mist Flower you want."

As soon as the second prince finished explaining, he quickly retreated and held the dragon scale spear firmly in front of his chest to prevent Ye Zhou from attacking him.

Ye Zhou carefully put the Azure Spiritual Mist Flower seed into the storage ring, raised his eyebrows and looked at the second prince and said: "We haven't discussed the compensation yet, why did you run so far? Let's discuss the compensation issue again."

After Ye Zhou finished speaking, he turned around and walked to the chair behind him and sat down. The second prince heard that there was no murderous intent in Ye Zhou's tone, gritted his teeth, and mustered up the courage to sit next to Ye Zhou.

Xue Mei and the others understood and left the box immediately. They also set up a soundproof shield in the box so that Ye Zhou and the second prince could discuss the compensation without any worries.

Two quarters of an hour later, the second prince walked out of the box with a trembling step, leaning on his dragon-scale spear, with a sullen face, muttering in a low voice: "This boy is not a human being. If I act impulsively again, I will be a dog, a bitch!"

After hearing this, Xue Mei guessed that Ye Zhou must have taken the opportunity to slaughter the second prince, and a smile appeared in her eyes.

Xue Mei turned to the two stewards and said, "Please help me see the Second Prince off."

The two stewards immediately said respectfully, "Yes."

After that, the two stewards followed the Second Prince's steps, one on the left and one on the right. Looking at the Second Prince's back, Xue Mei said softly, "Your Highness, take care. When you have time, please come to my Wanbao Auction House often."

The Second Prince paused after hearing this, and then left quickly as if he was escaping.

Although the royal family of Shengyun Kingdom looks prominent, it is no problem to bully the uncultivated Qi Refining Period casual cultivators, but now it can be seen that Ye Zhou's identity is not simple. This time he kicked the steel plate and was very scared.

In the box, Ye Zhou was secretly stroking the spirit beetle Xiaoyuan hidden in his sleeve. The dark golden light that injured the Second Prince just now was the soybean-sized golden bead-like magic weapon disguised by Xiaoyuan.

Ye Zhou learned this trick from the fourth elder of the Blood Spirit Sect, disguising spirit insects as magic weapons to fight.

In addition, spirit beetles are naturally hard, comparable to magic weapons. If they slightly restrain their breath and change their appearance, even cultivators in the early stage of Jindan cannot detect their true form.

It's a pity that the other spirit beetles raised by Ye Zhou are only in the Qi training stage, and are not suitable for transforming into magic weapons to fight. Otherwise, with these spirit beetles alone, Ye Zhou would be able to face cultivators in the late stage of foundation building head-on.

When discussing compensation just now, Ye Zhou obtained a large number of rare spirit plants, elixirs, magic weapons, spirit stones, and two pill recipes from the second prince.

These compensations made Ye Zhou feel much happier. Of course, he didn't kill the second prince not only for these compensations, but more importantly, he had just arrived in Shengyun Kingdom. If he killed the second prince and made a big fuss, his identity might not be hidden.

Ye Zhou took a few sips of tea from the teacup in front of him and calmed down a little. Then he saw Xue Mei walking in with a smile, bringing a gust of fragrant wind. She sat beside Ye Zhou and said respectfully: "I wonder if Xue Mei can help Master Ye in any way? Master Ye, just ask."

Ye Zhou smiled, and saw a flash of light flashing from the storage ring in his hand. A large number of magic tools, elixirs, talismans and other items were piled up on the ground casually, occupying a small half of the box.

Ye Zhou said lightly: "May I ask Miss Xue Mei, how much spiritual stones are these things worth?"

Xue Mei glanced at the pile of items Ye Zhou took out and saw that most of the magic tools were of middle and upper grades for Qi training, and there were even top-grade magic tools for Qi training mixed in.

After thinking for a while, Xue Mei said to Ye Zhou: "Mr. Ye's moves are indeed extraordinary. I wonder if Mr. Ye wants to sell all of them to my auction house, or let our bank be responsible for the auction of these items?"

"I personally suggest that Mr. Ye hand over these items to our bank for auction. The spiritual stones obtained will far exceed the price of selling them to our bank in batches."

After hearing this, Ye Zhou frowned slightly and asked: "I wonder how long it will take to auction these items?"

Ye Zhou planned to leave the imperial capital after finding Gu Feng, and find another place to hide his identity and look for authentic foundation-building pill materials to avoid being found by Fairy Xiyu and others. If the auction takes too long, he would rather sell fewer spiritual stones.

After hearing this, Xue Mei guessed that Ye Zhou did not want to stay here for a long time, so she smiled and said: "Under normal circumstances, it would take at least one month to auction these items."

"But Mr. Ye's visit is just in time. The four sects and three sects will soon recruit new disciples in the imperial capital. There has been an influx of many monks in the imperial capital recently. Therefore, our Wanbao Auction House has changed its rules and will hold one every two days. In a small auction, it only takes four days at most to auction off Mr. Ye’s items.”

After hearing this, Ye Zhou immediately said that he would hand over the pile of items to Wanbao Auction House for auction.

After dealing with this pile of useless things, Ye Zhou said goodbye to Xuemei and found a place in the city to stay at the Xianchang Inn where monks lived.

The Bafang Inn in the Imperial Capital was bustling with people, and there were many monks from various countries living there. Ye Zhou, who had just finished checking in, was about to go back to his room when he heard several tables of monks in the corner discussing about the secret realm of ancient monks.

When Ye Zhou heard the word 'secret realm', his heart moved, and he immediately thought of the energy of chaos, and thought to himself: "The ancient monks who can open up the secret realm must have very strong cultivation, maybe there is the energy of chaos in them! "

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou paused, changed direction, found an empty table closer to those tables of monks, sat down, ordered a pot of tea, and listened to the conversations of those tables of monks while drinking tea.

One of the tall and thin Taoist priests who casually pulled up his hair with a wooden hairpin said with a smile: "If it were other secret realms, we might not be able to meet casual cultivators like us, but in this secret realm, as long as you get the key to the secret realm and form the elixir, you will not be afraid. Even if you die, you can enter!”
