golden light, holy and majestic, radiating an aura of supreme power...He took a giant leap forward, and bellowed: “Brat, in terms of mental fortitude…”Though there is no blood drawn, it's more danger...The next day, in the morning.

Jin Yan'er, after a night of adjusting her mindset, had already hidden her sorrowful emotions within her heart.

Yun Hao woke up early and called Zhu Pin into his room.

When Zhu Pin entered the room, his expression froze.

Good job!

As expected of a young genius, so suave and debonair, there's an extra woman in his room.

Although Zhu Pin had long since passed the stage of lusting after women, he still possessed normal aesthetic sensibilities.

just Yun Hao

Although this young lady in the house is inferior to the maidservant in the martial arts hall in every way, she is still a proper beauty.

Walking down the street, she's the center of attention, attracting countless men to steal glances and turn their heads!

Zhu Pin didn't dare to look any longer,

Lao Lao honestly bowed his head and said, "Master, what are your orders"

"I'm going out for a bit. You're in charge here, make sure Jin Yan'er is safe." Yun Hao said.

When Zhu heard this, his eyes flashed instantly.

原來，這姑娘，就是金玉中的孫女，那個跟金玉中一樣，中了災厄之力折磨的可可憐丫頭！

"Please rest assured, sir. Zhu San will definitely guarantee Miss Jin's safety and won't let her suffer any harm." Zhu Pin assured him.

Yun Hao looked at Jin Yan'er: "Last night's events have sounded the alarm. Within Tianbao City, there is now a hidden force lurking in the shadows. Who are they What is their overall strength What are their goals We currently know nothing."

So, don't go out unexpectedly anymore.

With Zhu San around, his abilities are enough to guarantee your safety.

I promised your grandfather I would resolve the calamity afflicting you, and of course, I always keep my word!

He went out today, just to visit the Originium trade zone in Tianbao City!

The disaster fire within Jin Yan'er has existed for three years.

Saving her wouldn't be easy.

But Yunhao, since he had promised Jin Yuzhong, would not shirk his responsibility.

He had several ways to keep Jin Yan'er alive, so she would be spared the torment of the fire in the future.

But the most reliable way is to counter disaster with the power of disaster!

This is Yunhao's purpose for going out today!

Jinyan'er: “Master, even when you are out, be careful.”

Yun Hao hummed in response, then walked out of the inn alone and headed straight for the source stone trading area of Tianbao City.

Tiān Bǎo City is famous for its ores in Dàxià. Almost all of the ores from ancient Dàxià kingdom are found there.

All transactions will be concentrated in Tianshou City.

Therefore, the location within Tiān Bǎo City used for trading ore is situated in the central area.

This is a vast plaza called the Source Stone Plaza. There are no buildings obstructing the view. All the Source Stones are piled in front of individual vendors' stalls.

Whether you are a fellow master or simply interested in Originium, you can come to the Originium Plaza.

You can purchase jade stones, open them on site, and even gamble on them with each other.

In a nutshell, here, there are no rules except those of fistfights and grabs.

The source master is here, it's a mistake to have lost everything.

People who don't understand the source arts can also get lucky and make a lot of money!

Yun Hao was recognized as soon as he arrived at the Source Stone Plaza.

Many people at a distance, muttering to themselves.

"Could this swordsman of the mortal world also understand Originium"

"Well, that's impossible. Human energy is finite, even for a super genius. He has already cultivated the difficult swordsmanship to the third stage of Heart Sword, how could he have time to learn source arts"

"That's true, looking at him like this, he's just here for the fun of it!"

"Maybe, later I'll have to strip down to my underwear!"

"Haha, that makes sense!"

Unfazed by the countless curious stares and hushed whispers, Yun Hao remained indifferent.

He entered the Originium Plaza and walked past two Originium stalls before stopping in front of the third one.

The owner of the stall was a seemingly shrewd old man, with two bushy sideburns and piercing eyes.

"Well, well, if it isn't the famous Red Dust Swordsman! I've always admired Master Red Dust. To see you buying Source Stones here, truly a sign of your genius. You could tell at once that these were something special."

The old man immediately held up a head-sized source stone, patted it with his hand, and said, "Young Master Hongchen, this source stone costs one hundred spiritual crystals."

But since it's the Red Dust Son who wants to buy it, I'll give you a 20% discount, eighty spirit crystals will do!

I dare say, Hongchen Gongzi bought this source stone and didn't say that he made a profit of 100,000 or 80,000 spirit crystals, turning it tenfold or eightfold is no problem!

In the ancient country of Daxia, the currency used among cultivators was no longer mundane items like silver, gold, or jewels, but spiritual crystals!

Spirit crystals, also the currency used by cultivators throughout Dong荒 and even the entire Cangjie realm.

It can be said that the cultivation environment here in the ancient country of Dahu Xia has at least formally aligned with the entire Azure World!

Unlike the petty nation of Qing Feng Dynasty, where even cultivators still relied on gold and silver.

Yun Hao came to the ancient country of Daxia. Although he didn't go to earn Spirit Crystals, there were quite a few in his storage ring, at least tens of thousands!

These are all his spoils of war.

With the Wudidian Yunhai Formation, he killed the master of Feiyingshe.

When the leader of the Mad Sword Hall and his men were defeated, everything they possessed ended up in Yun Hao's storage ring.

This includes all the wealth of Yan Quan, the deputy hall master of Wuhui.

These few, are all big shots. Their spirit crystals added up together, total over ten thousand.

As one can imagine, for some ordinary cultivators, 100 spirit crystals

Actually, that's no small sum!

Just then.

A burly, well-dressed middle-aged man walked over and immediately said: “This ore, eighty spirit crystals, I'll take it!”

The elder immediately looked embarrassed.

"This honorable sir, eighty spirit crystals is a price only for prodigies like Young Master Hongchen. For anyone else, the price tag is one hundred spirit crystals, not even one less!"

The middle-aged man let out a cold snort and said, "Do you think I would be short of some Spirit Crystals I have my eye on this Source Stone. This Source Stone is bound to yield a high-grade treasure. One hundred Spirit Crystals, take them, the Source Stone is mine!"

Saying that, he was extremely generous. With a flick of his arm, one hundred spirit crystals landed on the stall, shimmering and sparkling.

People were whispering around.

He was talking about this ostentatious middle-aged man's background. He was a source master who was about to be promoted, with a sharp eye and extremely precise identification of source stones. Almost nine out of ten source stones he picked would turn out to be treasures.

The stall owner looked embarrassed and said, “It’s first come, first served. If Mister Hongchen doesn't want it, I’ll give it to you.”

Yun Hao casually picked up a source stone from the stall. It was only the size of a fist and priced at fifty spirit crystals. He said, "This source stone, ten spirit crystals, I'll take it."

This kind of low-grade source stone, Yun Hao doesn't need to use the Source Technique to identify it.

Just take a quick glance, and you'll get the idea.

The energy within this ore in his hand is rich with medicinal properties. Judging by the fluctuations of its energy, it should be worth between one hundred and one hundred fifty spirit crystals.

The stall owner: "..."

That well-off middle-aged man: "..."

"Red Dust Young Master, I have a real treasure here in my hand. Don't you want it"

Yunhao: "I have this source stone in my hand, and ten spirit crystals. If you don't sell it, I'll go look elsewhere."

Saying that, he put down the ore and turned to leave.

“Alright, alright, ten spirit crystals. I’ll take a loss, it doesn’t matter. Consider this a favor to Red Dust Master. Take it!”

Yunhao turned around.

From the storage ring, he took out eight spirit crystals and placed them on the stall. He then casually threw the source stone back into the storage ring.

"Where are the ten spirit crystals we agreed on"

"You said you'd sell me your Origin Stones at 20% off, right"

The stall owner looked dejected and said, “Well, well.”

Yun Hao took the source stone.

A well-off middle-aged man, retrieved the one hundred spirit crystals he had just thrown out, and said dejectedly to his father, "Father, this Red Dust Swordsman is not easy to fool!"

The stall owner sighed with relief, saying, "It's a good thing I finally opened today. That source stone, bought for seven spirit crystals, earned him one more!"

………

A moment later.

A group of people arrived at the Stone Plaza.

Prince Xia Yi, and Su family's little fatty!

Xia Yi smiled and said, "Brother Su, we hit it off right away the first time we met. This prince has a feeling of meeting late regret. Today, let's just have fun. Brother Su, if you liked anything at the Source Stone Plaza, feel free to take it."

"Everything is ready, your Highness! I've prepared the Spirit Crystals!"

The fat man glanced at Xia Yi.

He hasn't forgotten.

Back then, when they were in the imperial city of the Qingfeng Dynasty, those old bastards from the Xia Kingdom royal family almost drove Yun Hao to a dead end. The brothers left the Qingfeng Dynasty with the aim of settling scores with that old bastard.

Although, later I learned that Yun Hao was not dead and was still doing well in the Martial Hall.

But this account, doesn't mean it's over!

Today, Xia Yi took the initiative to invite him out to play. He wouldn't be polite, he wouldn't let Xia Yi, this little bastard, get off easy this time, that would be a disservice to his nickname, Fat Grandpa!

Xia Yi: "As long as Brother Su is happy, everything is fine. Just a few spirit crystals, this prince has plenty!"

The fat man's small eyes gleamed.

Since Xia Yi himself said so, if he doesn't take the opportunity to thoroughly embarrass him, then wouldn't that be a betrayal of Xia Yi's kindness!

"Prince, I am just starting to learn the ways of Yuan Shu. If I have made any mistakes…"

Xia Yi: “Don’t worry, whether the ores Su Ge bought went up or down in price, everything inside is still Su Ge’s. Today, this prince is only responsible for taking spirit crystals. Su Ge is responsible for having fun. As for the rest, don't think about it.”

"Fatty, his face full of emotion: "Prince, you are truly my good brother!"

"To be able to become good brothers with such a brilliant person as Brother Su, this prince would spend any amount of spirit crystals without hesitation."

At that moment.

A lackey of Xia Yi approached Xia Yi and said, "Your Highness, the Red Dust Swordsman is at the Source Stone Square, alone."

Xia Yi's eyes flashed.

The fat man snorted and said, "We can't make a move at the Source Stone Plaza. This is Su Family's rule, but it doesn't matter. Today, we'll let this Red Dust Swordsman feel what it means to be wealthy and generous. We'll teach him a lesson with Spirit Crystals!".Ahead lies the area where the Divine Tree of Genesis showers down its brilliant light of divine blessings.No tokens, no entry.And to those outside, the inner workings will always remain a mystery.Jin...
