The largest trade market in the Yanlan Empire is called Qing Yun Pavilion. Qing Yun Pavilion's business covers various domains such as consignnt auctions and task systems, with transactions involving items ranging from dicines, ores to weapons and elixirs.
In the entire Yanlan Empire, if there's anything you can't find at Qing Yun Pavilion, it's probably impossible to find elsewhere; as long as you pay enough, even non-existent items can be acquired.
Its daily cash flow is incredibly substantial, rumored that Qing Yun Pavilion's owner might have wealth surpassing the national treasury.
However, the owner behind Qing Yun Pavilion is highly mysterious, and so far, no one has seen his true face. It's said to have a significant relation with the Royal Family, otherwise the Royal Family couldn't allow such a wealthy person to exist within the Yanlan Empire.
Although Gu Xiao is discriminated within the family, he is still quite free, and with a greeting to the gatekeeper, he walked out of the Gu Family gates.
Those people were quite puzzled, as Gu Xiao usually never steps out of the main gate, yet suddenly he developed an interest in venturing outside? However, the family had instructed them not to interfere with Gu Xiao's activities, and they dared not ask too many questions.
Zhang nglong sensed he was being followed when he stepped out, yet the pursuer wasn't strong; he easily shrugged off his tail, then slipped into an alley, erging in a hooded blue-gray cloak and a mask on his face, with his aura entirely different from before.
"It's worthy of being the largest trading institution in the Empire, truly imposing!" Zhang nglong stood by what seed like the astral gate's entrance, filled with a dense technological atmosphere.
Yet this isn't so technological product, but a powerful Divine Artifact. If anyone attempts destruction here, it will unleash countless Sword Qi infused with potent Sword Intent, shredding the foe to pieces, potentially even injuring a Super Life Form with such an attack.
Many people passed Zhang nglong, yet despite his odd attire, no one gave him a second glance since many co here to trade, not wishing others to know their true identity.
In the human world, Zhang nglong's earned money doesn't hold value here; although he has many precious dicines, due to the vast difference between worlds, his items wilt upon exposure, causing him great distress.
"Sir, can I assist you?" A blue-haired little girl approached Zhang nglong, seemingly a Qing Yun Pavilion staff mber, yet her attire slightly differed from others.
"I'm here to see any money-making opportunities," Zhang nglong said directly.
"Do you have treasures to sell?" Zhang nglong shook his head; he had nurous top-level Martial Arts Techniques but didn't want his high-level items overly circulated, and fearing troubles, he kept wary, uncertain if Qing Yun Pavilion might resort to violent robbery.
"Then you might want to check out the tasks here. At our place, refining elixirs, forging weapons, setting up formations can earn handso rewards."
The blue-haired girl led Zhang nglong to what appeared like a task hall, where new task updates appeared regularly, and one can search for desired tasks.
"Thank you," Zhang nglong, following the girl's suggestion, began browsing. For Zhang nglong, refining elixirs and forging weapons was the easiest, fastest way to earn money without cost.
At Qing Yun Pavilion, such tasks are highly rewarding, usually the minimal pay is 30-40% over the cost; for extrely challenging items, prices skyrocketed over 60%!
Of course, Qing Yun Pavilion charges commission, but the task publisher bears it, aning Zhang nglong earns the full pay upon task completion.
Zhang nglong sorted tasks by price; relatively, weapon forging tasks offered richer rewards!
"Wow, 5 billion Divine Crystals, such extravagance!" Zhang nglong's eyes sparkled while viewing the top-ranked task.
In the Yanlan Empire, the currency is Yanlan Coins, circulating within the Empire and neighboring recognized empires.
The Divine Crystal, however, is a precious ore that freely circulates across the Continent, possessing powerful purchasing capabilities.
According to Gu Xiao's mory, the entire Gu Family's assets totaled only two to three hundred billion Divine Crystals.
With such a sum, Zhang nglong could easily elevate Gu Xiao's physical strength and Life Levels rapidly.
Task publishers can choose anonymity or disclosure; this prominent figure opted not to hide, and Zhang nglong recognized him as Qing Kong from another Guardian Family among the Empire's eight families, the Qing Family.
The task was directly posted by Qing Kong himself.
This isn't really a secret; many years ago, a unique tallic fragnt fell into Yanlan Empire, passing hands until landing with Qing Kong. The fragnt seed a Divine weapon component, extrely heavy and durable.
Qing Kong aspired to refine it into a weapon, yet no Artifact Refiner within Yanlan Empire managed to lt it, let alone forge it into a complete weapon.
"That's the one!" Zhang nglong said to the girl, "I wish to accept this task, but can't proceed directly. Why?"
"You want Qing Kong's task?" The girl was visibly surprised; few had inquired about it so far.
The task was exceedingly difficult; inept individuals accepting it rely wasted Qing Kong's ti, prompting Qing Kong's additional requirent for task acceptance only upon his approval!
"Is there an issue accepting this task?" Zhang nglong asked curiously.
"Not at all, but this task is unique; the task's owner requires you to accomplish a feat before agreeing to discuss further."
"What task?"
"Right this way!" The girl led Zhang nglong into what seed like a clutter room, dust covering surfaces suggesting neglect, with a central pedestal housing a small tallic ball.
"Sir, Qing Kong's request entails lting this high-lting-point rare tal ball from the Continent…" The girl started detailing when Zhang nglong, in his mysterious robe, lightly touched the ball, and a golden fla flashed over it.
Within two breaths, the ball liquefied into molten iron.
"Can you arrange the eting now?"
