Chapter 403: The Seventh Floor of the Black Moon
As soon as he entered the seventh floor of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, before he could see the scene in front of him, a smell that was fresh to the extreme hit his face …… That’s right! Surprisingly, it was a fresh scent! For a huge Chamber of Commerce, the strongest thing should have been an ancient and heavy odor, but Yun Che felt as if he was all of a sudden in the middle of pure and unsullied nature, without any sense of being in the middle of a Chamber of Commerce.
He opened his eyes and looked ahead, and what appeared in front of him was an endless garden, with various colorful exotic flowers and grasses dotted amongst the emerald greenery, as well as large trees standing tall, and streams running across it, bringing up the incessant gurgling of running water.
Yun Che’s perception appeared in a momentary trance …… Is this the seventh floor of the Black Moon, the interior of a building?
This was clearly a paradise that looked like a fairyland!
In front, three young girls dressed in different colored clothes, their posture curling towards Yun Che. The posture of the three young girls were all one in a million, their temperament was even more luxurious and graceful, and their Xuan energy breath was even stronger than Heavenly Xuan!
The three young girls came in front of Yun Che and made a ting-ting bow: “Honorable guest, welcome to the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, if there is anything you need, please feel free to order us.”
This treatment on the seventh floor of the Black Moon was truly extraordinary. With the astonishing strength of the three young girls in front of him, any one of them would be a mighty sect master when they arrived in Cangfeng Country, but here, they were actually just guest attendants.
Yun Che quickly swept his surroundings, but he did not see any place to sell anything, there was not even a trace of what a Chamber of Commerce should have. With a slight thought, he opened his mouth and said, “The three fairies, I wonder where the senior who was conversing with me just now is now?”
“Hehe,” a gentle laughter came from nowhere, “Bring him over.”
“Yes …… noble guest please.” The three young girls crisply agreed, one in front, one on the left and one on the right, respectfully leading Yun Che towards the front.
Through the gardens, through the flower gardens, through a small cluster of mountains and a small waterfall, a simple but extraordinary style courtyard appeared in sight. There was a pavilion in the center of the courtyard, and in front of the pavilion, an old man in full purple clothing with a medium stature stood there, surveying Yun Che with a smile.
Yun Che took a step forward and politely said, “Junior Ling Yun, greetings to senior.”
Of course, Yun Che would not use his real name, so he borrowed Ling Yun’s name in passing.
“Hehe, please take a seat.” The purple-clothed old man made a wave with his hand, then took the lead and sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion. Yun Che nodded slightly and sat down opposite the old man, a young girl lightly left, and two young girls outside the two separated on both sides of Yun Che, their heads slightly drooping, their lips with a light smile, and their posture respectful, with an appearance of being at Yun Che’s disposal.
“Dare I ask what is the senior’s name?” Yun Che said.
“The old man’s surname is Zi, and his single name is Extreme.” The old man smiled and said.
Zi? Yun Che was slightly stunned, this was the first time he had heard of this surname, so he nodded his head and said, “Elder Zi, just now, thank you for your words of help.”
“The matter just now, there is no need for an old immortal to speak out, as for helping, it’s even less so, the old immortal is only allowing Black Moon to avoid a small trouble.” Zi Ji gazed upwards, looking directly into Yun Che’s eyes and smiled, “Young man, should the old immortal address you as Yun Che, or Yun Son-in-law, or as you wish, should I address you as Ling Yun?”
“……” Yun Che’s expression stiffened slightly, and then he laughed out loud and said without any panic, “Worthy of being the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, the intelligence ability is truly unrivaled in the world, the late generation Yun Che is really ridiculous for showing off his mind under the discerning eyes of senior Zi, I hope that senior Zi will not be offended. Senior will not be offended.”
“Hehe,” Violet Extreme smiled blandly, “Black Moon’s intelligence ability is not so exaggerated. It’s just that your identity happens to be easily recognizable. I have been in contact with the people of the Phoenix God Sect for many years, and I am extremely familiar with the Phoenix Inferno Force, and although you are trying your best to suppress it, I can still feel a small amount of the Phoenix Breath from you. And currently, the only person outside of the Phoenix God Sect who possesses a phoenix bloodline is Cang Feng Country’s extra horse harnessed by the side of a team, Yun Che.”
The young girl who had left returned with tea that had already been brewed, and the aroma of the tea overflowed, causing Yun Che’s mind and soul to smell refreshing. Although he did not understand the tea ceremony, he also knew that the value of this tea was definitely extremely expensive. He picked up the tea, took a small sip, and praised, ”Good tea. After hearing what senior said, it seems like it’s unlikely that the latecomer would want to hide his identity in this Divine Phoenix City.”
“You are using your Ice Xuan Force as a cover, unless it is probed meticulously, I am afraid that even the Phoenix Divine Sect’s elders will find it difficult to detect your Phoenix Inferno Force.” Zi Ji smiled, “You lit up the purple crystal on my Black Moon Xuan Formation, your natural talent can be described as astonishing, the old meager party put all of their attention on you, otherwise, they wouldn’t have detected your Phoenix Inflammation Force. However, in my humble opinion, it seems that you are also not deliberately hiding your identity, otherwise, just now, you would not have paid attention to that Phoenix Divine Sect’s descendant, and then you would not have unreservedly revealed your natural talent on this crystal stage.”
“Worthy of being the Lord of the Seventh Layer of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, you really have a discerning eye.” Yun Che heartily sighed in admiration, in the seventh floor of the Black Moon, this Zi Ji came into contact with all sorts of people at the top of the Tianxuan Continent, and his eyesight and ability to recognize people were definitely beyond the reach of any other person. He said, ”Elder was once hunted for years, and has long since grown tired of the feeling of hiding. In another half a month, senior will definitely have to face the Phoenix God Sect, since this is the case, why should I be trembling and tied up in this short half a month. Not being noticed by the Phoenix God Sect is naturally the best, but if I am noticed, it doesn’t matter, if I am careful in everything, wouldn’t it mean that I am afraid of the Phoenix God Sect.”
Yun Che drank the tea in his cup and talked about the Phoenix God Sect with a face that was devoid of any scruples.
This boldness caused Zi Ji to secretly praise in his heart, and he nodded his head to show his approval, “Although the Phoenix God Sect knew of your existence two years ago because you exposed the Phoenix bloodline, they did not place you too much in their heart because in the eyes of the Phoenix God Sect, the Xuan practitioners of the six kingdoms outside of the Divine Phoenix Empire are ants and do not deserve to be looked at in the right way. However, with you a few words, I suddenly feel that the Phoenix God Sect may have the possibility to eat a big loss because of belittling you …… but it can not be now. Although you are fearless, it does not mean that you have the ability to resist the strength of the Phoenix God Sect. Your natural talent can be considered extremely high, but it is far from growing up, you will be much stronger than what the Phoenix God Sect expects, but there is still no semblance of a threat to speak of.”
“This is something that the late generation knows by heart.” Yun Che nodded his head and then stated the main topic of why he came here today, “The reason that my junior visited the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce today is because I wanted to buy two items, and two pieces of information. However ……”
Yun Che swept his gaze around …… because this place really didn’t look like a place to sell things.
Violet Extreme knew what Yun Che was wondering about and said smilingly, “Whatever you need, just feel free to open your mouth with the old immortal. This seventh layer is different from the first six layers. The first six floors are not very different from the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce that you know, and there are very few honorable guests here, and when honorable guests come, they are all personally entertained by the old monks, so if honorable guests need anything, they only need to open their mouths, and regardless of whether Black Moon has or does not have it, as long as the honorable guests open their mouths and can afford to pay the price, Black Moon will do everything in its power to satisfy them. If you want to find something, there will also be someone who will accompany your guest to the first to sixth floors.”
I see… …… Yun Che no longer hesitated and directly spoke, “The two things that the late generation needs, one is the Heavenly Brahma Jade, the purer the better, and the other, is a well-preserved Phoenix Anemone.”
Violet Extreme closed his eyes and opened them after a few breaths, he reached out and gently wiped his hand on his Violet Jade Ring, and a jade box releasing a chilly aura was taken out and placed in front of Yun Che: “This is the largest and purest piece of the Heavenly Brahma Jade possessed by the Black Moon.”
A young girl moved forward and gently placed the ice jade box in front of Yun Che: “Your honored guest, please take a look.”
Yun Che was not polite, and directly opened the ice jade box, and in the midst of the cold mist, Yun Che saw a piece of light-bodied silver jade, which was interspersed with a blood filament-like texture, and Yun Che stretched out his left hand, and with a shake in the floating air, he perceived its purity with the Heavenly Poison Bead……. The Black Moon General Association’s things, naturally, would not be fake. Yun Che immediately snapped the ice jade box shut and said, “Good, please ask senior to make a price.”
“Heavenly Brahma Jade 600 Violet Xuan Coins or two, this piece of Heavenly Brahma Jade has a total of one catty and three taels, and requires 7,800 Violet Xuan Coins.” Zi Ji slowly quoted the price.
I’ll go, so expensive! The corner of Yun Che’s mouth twitched slightly, but being in possession of a huge amount of ten million Violet Xuan dollars, he could certainly afford to pay this amount. At that moment, he transferred seven thousand eight hundred violet xuan coins from his violet gold card, and then put the Heavenly Brahma Jade into the Heavenly Poison Bead.
“As for the Phoenix Anemones, the last thirteen Phoenix Anemones of the Black Moon were all bought by the Phoenix God Sect three hours ago.” Zi Ji spoke, “If you are in dire need of this item, there is a place outside of the Black Moon where you can buy it.”
“Where?”
Zi Ji said slowly, “Three hundred miles south of here, there is a chamber of commerce called the ‘Falling Flame Chamber of Commerce’, and that chamber of commerce will be auctioning off a few precious items tomorrow at three o’clock in the afternoon, and one of them is the Phoenix Anemone.”
Yun Che nodded: “Evening generation has taken note of it, thank you senior for informing …… er, does this information need to be paid for?”
“Hehe, no need.” Violet Extreme smiled faintly, then reminded, “However, although this Fallen Flame Chamber of Commerce is called a ‘Chamber of Commerce’, it is actually a black market. Its auctions are also unofficially external auctions, you will know when you get there. However, I believe that with your mind, you will definitely not suffer any losses. So, what are the two pieces of information that you want?”
“The late generation wishes for Black Moon to help me find out information about the whereabouts of two people.” Yun Che said with a straight face, “These two people, one of them is named Chu Yuechan, who was once a disciple of the Cangfeng Kingdom’s Ice Cloud Immortal Palace and ranked as the first of the Ice Cloud Seven Immortals, and one of them is named Xia Yuanba ……”
Yun Che described the situation regarding the two people in as much detail as possible to Zi Ji, who slightly closed his eyes and memorized it all before nodding his head, “The information regarding these two people, I will personally arrange for someone to explore. Only, the Black Moon’s network in Cangfeng Country is the most sparsely spread, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be results in a short period of time, leave your voice transmission seal, after there is confirmed intelligence, the old monarch will contact you at the first time, because you are a valued guest, therefore, you don’t need to pay the intelligence fee in advance. Settlement can be made on the day the intelligence is confirmed. In this, although I do not know where Xia Yuanba is now, but there are some things about him that I can tell you.”
Yun Che’s spirit shook and he stood up at once: “You know about Yuanba?”
“Not only do I know, a lot of people in Divine Phoenix City know this name.” Zi Ji slowly said, “Back then, his name was resounding through half of Divine Phoenix City in a short period of time, a crazy maniac, only not long after that, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, not long after that, his father also rushed to Divine Phoenix City and stayed in the midst of this Black Moon General Meeting …… huh If I remember correctly, Xia Yuanba’s father, Xia Hongyi, should be one of your fathers-in-law, right?”
