Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

“Of course, I want them!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

The three badges worth 160,000 inferior spiritual stones immediately appeared in Jiang Yuan’s hand.

Lin Meier took the three badges from Jiang Yuan’s hand, her fingers touching his.

Jiang Yuan instantly felt a strong coldness from Lin Meier’s fingertips. Her five snowy jade-like fingers were as cold as ice crystals.

Feeling the heat emanating from Jiang Yuan’s palm, a ripple of emotion stirred in Lin Meier’s heart.

Such an immense power of qi and blood. With such torrents of qi and blood, his physical body must be extraordinarily powerful!

Even more powerful than his current realm!

No wonder she could feel his burning presence from such a distance.

Unexpectedly, even in a small place like the Qianyuan Kingdom, there are individuals who have cultivated their physical bodies to such an extraordinary level.

If he advanced a step further, his qi and blood would be like a blazing furnace. He would become an irresistible lure for a demoness, a first-rate cauldron that those demonesses would covet.

Only someone like me, who emerges untainted from the filth, can remain unaffected.

Lin Meier took the badges from Jiang Yuan and summoned the sheath of the Yin-Yang Parent-child Sword into her hand with a wave.

“Young Master Jiang, here’s your Yin-Yang Parent-child Sword. Please inspect it.”

After Jiang Yuan took it over, a flash of light occurred in her hand, and the Small Movement Charm appeared.

“Young Master Jiang, here’s your Small Movement Charm. Please inspect it.”

During their handover, Lin Meier felt the waves of heat coming from Jiang Yuan’s palm, causing her cheeks to flush slightly and her eyes to glimmer.

She retracted her hand, crossing her hands over her stomach, and said, “Young Master Jiang, I have some words for you.”

“Please speak forth, Lady Lin,” Jiang Yuan respectfully responded.

“Be wary of demonesses in the future!”

Seeing the perplexed look on Jiang Yuan’s face, she blinked at him and turned to leave.

The door slowly closed on its own as she left.

What did Lin Meier’s words mean?

Jiang Yuan was instantly baffled.

After pondering it for a moment, he still couldn’t determine why she had said this, nor what she meant.

With a shake of his head, Jiang Yuan put the thought out of his mind, deciding not to worry about it!

Right now, his main task was to Breakthrough.

If he had enough strength, there would be no need to think so much. He would simply seize her and interrogate her, and then he would know.

Meanwhile.

The auction had officially ended, and the doors of the Treasure Pavilion were already open.

The once bustling auction house was now deserted, with only a few scattered people who hadn’t left yet.

Mu Qianru didn’t leave; instead, she stood on the first floor, watching the entrance of the upstairs staircase.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan had yet to descend, a smile curved on her lips.

Since he hadn’t come down yet, it appeared he had indeed won something. She wondered what exactly he had won.

Just then, Jiang Yuan slowly descended the stairs.

Mu Qianru’s eyes instantly brightened when she saw him, but she did nothing as he slowly approached.

In Yunxiao City, the various sects have long laid down rules.

There is a prohibition against fights in Yunxiao City; anyone who violates this rule will be hunted down by all the sects.

In this city, people can only spar, not resort to bloody acts.

This is why she had ended up in an illusory realm and stripped of her clothes upon accepting Ouyang Man’s challenge.

Yunxiao City was a place for sects to communicate; naturally, they wouldn’t allow fighting there.

Not to mention at the Treasure Pavilion.

No one who had ever acted in the Treasure Pavilion had ended well.

Every major immortal sect has a branch at the Treasure Pavilion.

Anyone who underestimated the strength of the Treasure Pavilion had met their demise.

Mu Qianru only left the Treasure Pavilion when she saw Jiang Yuan go out of the gate.

Watching Jiang Yuan’s retreating figure, a mysterious smile spread across her face.

“There’s no rush,” she muttered to herself, clenching her small fist, “the day you leave Yunxiao City, you’ll inevitably fall into this Holy Daughter’s hands.”

Elsewhere.

Jiang Yuan quickly returned to the Supreme Mystery Sect’s residence in Yunxiao City.

Upon seeing Jiang Yuan, Kou Dong quickly approached.

“Junior Brother Jiang, how was it? Quite the eye-opener, wasn’t it?”

Jiang Yuan nodded: “Indeed an eye-opener. After attending this auction, I realize how poor I am!”

Kou Dong also nodded in agreement.

“Yeah! I didn’t expect the rumors we heard before were true. Two Bodhi Fruits actually appeared at this auction, and they were auctioned at a sky-high price. Too bad I don’t have enough spiritual stones, otherwise, I would have participated and added to the excitement!”

Jiang Yuan also nodded: “Yes, indeed!”

Kou Dong added: “What intrigues me is that there are no great cultivators in the Dharma Realm in the current Lankesh Temple. So where did the Bodhi Fruits that were auctioned this time come from?”

“It couldn’t be that Lankesh Temple is so short of spiritual stones that they have taken out their old reserves for auction, could it?”

Upon hearing Kou Dong’s words, Jiang Yuan was taken aback.

He fell into deep thought.

He had been planning to return the relic to the Lankesh Temple after the breakthrough to the Spiritual Sea Realm.

However, hearing Kou Dong’s words, he suddenly felt uncertain.

The auction of the Bodhi Fruit was known to all.

The Lankesh Temple would have surely gotten wind of this. In such circumstances, returning the relic could potentially lead to unforeseen incidents.

He shook his head discreetly, deciding to hold off on this matter for now. There was no rush; after all, he hadn’t promised when the relic would be returned.

“Junior Brother Jiang, what’s wrong?” Kou Dong’s voice suddenly rang in Jiang Yuan’s ears.

Jiang Yuan snapped back to reality, and with a smile, he said, “Nothing, I was just thinking about something!”

Kou Dong looked at Jiang Yuan and said, “I have some work to do, so I won’t bother you, Brother Jiang.”
