Chapter 714: 0715 Loose Cultivator Expert! (First Release)

The auction of the Primordial Pill was way more fierce than imagined, a few times over.

In front of the three major ancient clans, first-rate ancient clans also wanted to step in and join. This turned the ownership of the Primordial Pill into a focal point of everyone’s attention.

Especially the Ji Clan, having had a predecessor who used the Primordial Pill to achieve a breakthrough, caused the Ji Clan to bid even more frantically.

Soon, the price was driven up to a very high level.

Four hundred grade-two Crystal Stones!

From up high, Jin Shanshun was astounded. The Ji Clan really was wealthy; four hundred grade-two Crystal Stones was a sum that even his clan would struggle to produce all at once.

"Brother Ye, if the Ji Clan gets the Primordial Pill again, I’m afraid they will add another expert to their ranks." Watching the determined Ji Clan, Jin Shanshun expressed his concerns. He knew that the Ji Clan was the very clan Ye Qiu wanted to deal with the most. They were sworn enemies, and it would be ironic if the pill Ye Qiu refined ended up bolstering the power of the Ji Clan, potentially backfiring on Ye Qiu himself.

Ye Qiu shook his head, his gaze falling on the Mu Clan and Shi Clan, saying, "It won’t be that simple for the Ji Clan to win the auction for the Primordial Pill. There are others more anxious than us. Do you think the Mu Clan and the Shi Clan will just let the Ji Clan win easily?"

Jin Shanshun’s eyes shifted as he spoke, "Are you suggesting that the Shi Clan and the Mu Clan will intervene?"

Ye Qiu nodded. In the ancient lands, no ancient clan wanted to be second to others, especially among the loftiest three major clans. Any one of them getting stronger threatens the other two.

Among the three major clans, there was already an invisible balance. If this balance were broken, the other two might even join forces.

These were all guesses by Ye Qiu, but as for how things would develop, he couldn’t be sure.

However, Jin Shanshun’s worries were noted by Ye Qiu. He was right; if the pill Ye Qiu refined ended up empowering the Ji Clan, making them stronger, then it would indeed be a loss rather than a gain.

It seemed he needed to devise a strategy for this situation, to resolve it, or else it would indeed end up benefiting these ancient clans.

While Ye Qiu was devising his strategy, downstairs, the auction had reached its most intense phase.

Some mid-level ancient clans withdrew, such as the Tang Clan. This time, the Tang Clan had also prepared a considerable number of Crystal Stones for the auction of the Primordial Pill, with Tang Surou, Tang Ze, and other Tang talent seated on the first floor, watching the bidding.

Unfortunately, by the end of the bidding, the amount exceeded the Tang Clan’s budget limit, and they immediately gave up.

Many other ancient clans did the same. Now it became a struggle between the three major ancient clans.

However, just when the auction price reached a staggering level, even the three major clans were hesitating, a strange voice joined in, offering a price far above that of the three major clans.

Whoosh...

All eyes converged on this figure, who dared to step into the competition among the three major clans at this stage—they were indeed bold.

Ye Qiu was lost in thought and hadn’t noticed this scene, until Jin Shanshun beside him woke the distracted Ye Qiu, who then turned his attention there.

Someone wasn’t afraid of the majesty of the three major clans — who were they?

It was him!

Someone recognized him. This person was a Loose Cultivator, not affiliated with any ancient clan. No wonder he dared to join in. This person had been a legendary Martial Artist fifty years earlier, then vanished without a trace. Unexpectedly, he was still alive.

As someone stated this fact, many from the younger generation of the ancient clans turned their eyes toward this man; for these descendants, he was indeed an old predecessor.

At this moment, the representatives of the three major clans looked at this middle-aged-looking Loose Cultivator with a hint of murderous intent.

However, this person did not care at all, his eyes filled with self-confidence, which was an extremely arrogant demeanor.

Suddenly, a dark horse emerged, something Cloud Gown Palace Auction House was always pleased to see.

The bidding price would only get higher.

For a while, none of the three great ancient clans made another bid, as if they had silently agreed to let this middle-aged man have the Primordial Pill.

"Are they planning to settle the score after autumn?" Ye Qiu said indifferently, the reason the three great ancient clans had withdrawn was probably because they did not want to pay a huge price to bid, and since this man wanted it, just let him have it, after all, once out of the Cloud Gown Palace, to whom the Primordial Pill truly belongs was up for debate.

"Are you saying that the three great ancient clans plan to make a move on this man after the auction ends?" Jin Shanshun asked.

"I wouldn’t rule it out, in the presence of many ancient clans, this man’s steep raise in the bid wouldn’t sit well with the three great ancient clans." Ye Qiu stated, "However, this man dares to pluck hairs from the tiger, apparently he is not afraid of the three great ancient clans at all."

The appearance of someone daring to oppose the three great ancient clans intrigued Ye Qiu, yet he could feel that this man was very formidable, bold enough to snatch the Primordial Pill coveted by the three great ancient clans, probably unafraid of them seeking him out after.

After this auction concluded, it was likely to stir up another round of killing.

For a while, five people kept raising the bid, until someone from Cloud Gown Palace struck the small hammer, and the Primordial Pill went to this sudden dark horse.

Quickly, this man disappeared from the public’s view, entering the inner parts of the Cloud Gown Palace to complete the transaction.

The people of the three great ancient clans had already left the Cloud Gown Palace, many noticed that they had not gone far, just near the various exits of the Cloud Gown Palace.

Jin Shanshun merely went out to take a brief look and then relayed the activities of the three great ancient clans.

Ye Qiu’s prediction was correct; the three great ancient clans did not bid, wanting to snatch the Primordial Pill from this man.

Could this man evade the three great ancient clans’ attempt to rob him?

Just as a slight smile appeared on Ye Qiu’s lips, the middle-aged man, who had paid a total of eight hundred second-grade Crystal Stones, exited through the back door of the Cloud Gown Palace.

Inside the Cloud Gown Palace, no one dared to make a move, that was the rule of Cloud Gown Palace, even the three great ancient clans did not breach this rule, thus it was very safe inside the Cloud Gown Palace. However, once outside, the Cloud Gown Palace no longer intervened, letting others engage in their fights and killings.

As soon as the middle-aged man stepped out of the Cloud Gown Palace, several figures blocked his way.

Suddenly, a powerful aura burst forth, even Ye Qiu, who was inside the Cloud Gown Palace, noticed it, and he and Jin Shanshun changed to another window to look downstairs.

They saw that the middle-aged man was very mighty, galloping among several powerhouses, easily breaking through their encirclement and disappearing out of sight.

"How strong!" Jin Shanshun exclaimed, the middle-aged man’s casual strike alone was enough to end his life, that terrifying power was chilling.

Even the three great ancient clans had their day!

Ye Qiu sneered inwardly, it seemed that not only he Ye Qiu held hostility towards the three great ancient clans, but he wondered who this man truly was.

Soon, Ye Qiu saw people from a premier ancient clan, including the Sun clan’s genius, Sun Baichi, and the Yue clan’s genius, Yue Lun, walking out of the Cloud Gown Palace.

Hmm? The Tang clan...

Ye Qiu watched the figures of the Tang clan group, his gaze finally resting on that beautiful silhouette.

Sensing something, Tang Surou turned her head, glancing towards the second floor of the Cloud Gown Palace, she vaguely saw a familiar face.
