"What! Mr. Zhu, you have a way? Why didn’t you say so earlier?"
Before Zhu Fei could finish speaking, Song Yan was slightly agitated and asked eagerly, "What is the thod? Please, Mr. Zhu, tell us quickly."
Seeing this, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but feel sowhat speechless.
He gave a wry smile on his face, pretended to cough a few tis, and then, touching his nose, said, "Old Song, I hadn’t finished what I was saying."
"Oh."
Hearing Zhu Fei say this, Song Yan rembered that Zhu Fei indeed hadn’t finished speaking.
This made him feel slightly embarrassed, yet his eyes still closely watched Zhu Fei, waiting for his further explanations.
Zhu Fei didn’t hesitate much and after thinking briefly, he continued from where he had left off:
"It’s just that, the thod is very difficult, incredibly difficult, and without certain opportunities, there is simply no way to ’execute’ it."
Without waiting for Song Yan to ask again, Zhu Fei continued to explain:
"Because to solve Scorpion’s vitality issues, we must find a celestial treasure that can replenish vitality. Only with such a treasure can the loss of vitality be compensated and possibly resolved."
"A celestial treasure to replenish vitality?" Song Yan’s brows furrowed deeply.
He understood what Zhu Fei ant by his thod.
However, he also knew that regardless of which aspect it was for, celestial treasures were not easy to find.
Even with the energy he currently had, to find the celestial treasure that could replenish vitality as Zhu Fei had ntioned within a year was nearly impossible.
Such things are rare and not available for purchase.
No wonder Zhu Fei said that the thod to save Scorpion would be very difficult, extrely difficult, requiring special opportunities...
Thinking this, Song Yan’s heart suddenly felt cold.
He looked back at Zhu Fei and couldn’t help but smile wryly and shake his head, "Mr. Zhu, I really don’t have any assurance about this thod you ntioned."
He paused slightly, and still sowhat hopeful, Song Yan asked, "Apart from this thod, is there really no other way?"
"There is! But it can only help her prolong her life temporarily; it cannot solve the problem completely."
To Song Yan’s surprise, Zhu Fei nodded promptly and continued, "Ginseng over three thousand years old, Red Blood Ginseng over a thousand years old, Primordial Spirit Fruit over five hundred years old..."
Suddenly, Zhu Fei listed a slew of Spiritual dicine nas to Song Yan and then added, "These are all Spiritual dicines that can replenish human Primordial Qi and can temporarily help Scorpion prolong her life."
"But, the effect of each of these Spiritual dicines can only extend her life for a month, and that is only the first ti they are effective. If the sa kind of Spiritual dicine is used a second ti, it will have no effect at all."
In fact, Zhu Fei was considering the current situation in this world.
The Spiritual dicines he listed were precious in this world, but not entirely impossible to find.
Otherwise, Zhu Fei could have suggested Spiritual dicines a hundred or even a thousand tis more precious.
Because in his view, things like three thousand-year-old ginseng, or thousand-year-old Red Blood Ginseng, were rely items needed by Qi Refinent Realm cultivators, and among the entirety of the Cultivation World, they were considered the most basic "trash."
If he could find that kind of Spiritual dicine by his own standards, Zhu Fei could even extend Scorpion’s life by several hundred years without relying on the heavenly treasures that replenish vitality.
Unfortunately, all of this was rely hypothetical.
Because, in this world, the Spiritual dicine Zhu Fei imagined might not even exist, let alone the heavenly treasures that can replenish vitality.
Therefore, Zhu Fei believed that unless so miraculous or heaven-defying opportunity arose, the path Scorpion could walk in this life was ultimately not very far.
The suggestion he had made to Song Yan earlier was rely to offer the old man a glimr of hope, a bit of expectation.
Zhu Fei was very clear about this himself, and with Song Yan’s wisdom, Zhu Fei believed that he must understand this by now.
Indeed, after listening to Zhu Fei’s words, Song Yan couldn’t help but sigh with resignation.
He shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "It seems that this is all we can do for now, but regardless, I must thank you."
As he spoke, Song Yan suddenly seed to rember sothing.
He took out an invitation card with golden edges from his person, which also had the traditional character for "treasure" engraved on it.
"Mr. Zhu, I heard you ntioning the Treasure Pavilion’s Hai Bei auction when you were on the phone earlier. Are you interested in it?"
While speaking, Song Yan pushed the golden-edged invitation card toward Zhu Fei, and then smiled:
"To be honest with you, I’m friends with an external Elder nad Xue Yuan from there. They also sent an invitation to their auction. If you’re truly interested, you could join Wen Lei and the others and go together."
Seeing the invitation card pushed over by Song Yan, Zhu Fei showed a hint of surprise on his face.
Earlier, he had been busy with his own affairs and hadn’t had the ti to ask Wen Lei and the others about the Treasure Pavilion auction.
Now, thankfully, Song Yan brought it up himself.
What surprised Zhu Fei even more was the breadth of Song Yan’s connections—who even knew an Elder from the Treasure Pavilion.
It was known that the level at which Treasure Pavilion operated was equivalent to that of a hidden Sect.
Zhu Fei even felt that the true strength of Treasure Pavilion might slightly surpass those hidden Sects and families.
Perhaps seeing the confusion in Zhu Fei’s eyes, Song Yan paused for a mont before continuing with a smile:
"It seems you’ve heard about the situation regarding Treasure Pavilion. Yes, their overall strength isn’t part of our current level anymore."
"As for their true strength, what level it reaches, I am not sure. Even my friend, the external Elder, is also unclear."
"Regardless of what level of power it belongs to, it’s not our concern right now. You just need to know that today, no hidden Sect dares to provoke the Treasure Pavilion. Just by that fact, you should be able to imagine its status in the current Ancient Martial World."
Indeed it was so.
Upon hearing Song Yan’s words, Zhu Fei finally confird his prior suspicions.
It appeared that Treasure Pavilion was indeed no simple matter.
Thinking this, Zhu Fei slightly pondered and finally asked Song Yan:
"Old Song, please tell about the specific rules of the Treasure Pavilion’s auction. Also, what is generally used for transactions during their auctions?"
