Especially for Yan Qingying, the emotions were the most complex. Ten years ago... she was deed as a failure, unable to summon dragons, and was bundled with nine other girls, sold altogether for only 1,000 gold.
At that ti, Yan Qingying was utterly desperate. She hurried all the way to Ethereal City and was then taken to the auction stage. From her perspective, there was no longer any hope in her life. She would either beco a plaything for the powerful or a maid; her life would forever be plunged into darkness.
But it was at her mont of utmost despair that Xin Yun appeared. Even now, Yan Qingying clearly rembers the expression and posture of Xin Yun at that ti. When he looked at her, the dazzling light that burst forth from his eyes is still vividly imprinted in her mind; she will never forget it in this lifeti.
In the end, Yan Qingying was purchased by Xin Yun for a total of 1,000 gold. At the ti, everyone thought he was a fool for his choice. She was just the lowest level of maid, not worth spending so much money on. But today, everything has proven just how unique Xin Yun's vision was!
Given Yan Qingying's current appearance and strength, she is completely beyond the compare of money; she is priceless. Not to ntion... if Yan Qingying made her virginity publicly available for bidding, the price would certainly be astonishing enough to jaw-drop anyone.
The main reason for coming here this ti was to select the Twelve Apostles for the Fight Heaven Divine Evil Great Formation and 365 disciples for the Great Array of Zhou Heavenly Stars. This Ethereal City happens to be a ga City under the Demon Dragon Clan. If one wished to purchase so young people with potential and qualifications, this was the best place indeed.
However, this ti, Xin Yun and the others did not head directly to the auction. Having Yan Qingying, who understood the Demon Dragon Clan imnsely, they naturally went straight to the most straightforward location. They weren't afraid of spending more money, as Xin Yun and the others were not short of cash at all.
The reason Yan Qingying understood so well was actually due to her own personal experiences. Back then... the children who trained with her were divided into three batches upon arrival here. The first batch, of the highest quality, was sent to family-specific auction houses, and the second batch to high-end markets, which sold the strongest individuals for external sale.
As for the last batch, which Yan Qingying was part of, they were taken to ordinary auction houses for a continuous cycle of public auctions, where anyone could bid, and the highest offer won.
There are three tiers of auction houses. The lowest tier allows free entry, while the higher one requires one to buy a ticket, and for the highest tier, one must purchase a VIP seat costing a million gold! If you can't even afford that, it's better not to co here at all.
Regarding the selection of talent, Xin Yun did not intervene. Whether it was Yan Qingying or Ming Xuan, they both had the right to freely spend money. Moreover, this visit was for them to select apostles and disciples; Xin Yun neither wanted nor could offer help.
With the Tai Chi Diagram and the Chaos Bell in hand, Xin Yun wasn't worried about their safety. Thus, they dispersed on the spot and agreed to et at the Piaomiao Grand Hotel at noon.
After parting ways, Yan Qingying headed straight for the highest-tier auction house, while Ming Xuan rushed to the high-tier auction house. This choice was also a rather helpless matter. The highest tier had fewer auction items, suitable only for soone like Yan Qingying who needed just twelve Apostles. Ming Xuan needed 365 disciples and had to go to the high-tier auction house.
After splitting up, Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang wandered the streets, entering any woodcraft shop they ca across to have a look, trying to find a skilled carpenter. After all... there was still a mountain of Gold-Threaded Purple Sandalwood waiting inside their space. Finding a master carpenter could lead to the construction of a perfect villa made entirely of Gold-Threaded Purple Sandalwood!
This Ethereal City is one of the Top Ten Super ga Cities, extraordinarily magnificent, with a large number of artisans gathered here, including a character who would be quite famous in later generations, known as the Divine Craftsman—Master n Dou. Those familiar with him liked to call him Master Mumble.
Master n Dou's craftsmanship is exceptionally exquisite. Whether it's making handles and shafts for weapons or furniture like tables and chairs, or even constructing buildings and palaces out of wood, each piece is incredibly precise, each of his works describable as art.
However, Master n Dou is an eccentric who doesn't care about money. Most of the things he makes he keeps for his own collection, rarely selling to the outside world. But precisely because of this, every one of his creations, even if made from rotten wood, is of astonishing value.(To be continued, if you wish to know what happens next, please visit .
