Chapter 5
This was why the disciple recruitment banquet was held at Zui Xian Inn, waiting for the fated person to appear.
There were many treasures in the Han Yue’s space, but her strength was sealed and her realm had fallen, so she could only open a small part of the space.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that my cultivation level is not high enough, the spatial zone hasn’t been fully opened, and many things can’t be used, I wouldn’t have to rely on these people’s spirit stones. There’s only so little, but I still need to cheat for the stones.”
“When I return to the upper realm, I’ll definitely make those who once plotted against me pay a painful price for what they’ve done!”
At the thought of this, Han Yue’s face turned frosty and her mood became worse. The temperature around her dropped by several degrees, and the crowd also vaguely noticed that something was wrong.
“Don’t tell me that she’s angry because we hit the nail on the head. We’ve better be quiet.”
The old man saw that the situation was getting worse, so he couldn’t help but say, “You all have misunderstood. The sect is still in its initial stages of construction, and there are still many things to be done. That’s why we need to gather resources, and thus we’re introducing the spirit stone donation system.”
Even so, the crowd still found it hard to believe.
Han Yue didn’t want to waste any more time with this group of people, “Let’s go. Staying here is a waste of my time. If I had known earlier, I would have gone to a more prosperous town. The people there wouldn’t care about these spirit stones.”
Just as Han Yue was about to leave...
A man’s voice suddenly sounded.
“I’m paying fifty thousand spirit stones, which table can I sit at?”
Everyone, including Han Yue, was stunned. Someone was really willing to hand the spirit stones over, and it was doubled!
In Qingcheng, five thousand spiritual stones were enough to feed an ordinary family for a few years. What kind of concept was fifty thousand spiritual stones?
There was actually such a fool in the world.
Ye Xuan walked out of the crowd.
Seeing that he wasn’t well-dressed, his clothes were very ordinary, and his cultivation wasn’t high, the crowd obviously didn’t believe him.
“Stop bragging, kid. Fifty thousand spiritual stones? It’s already good enough that you can take out fifty spiritual stones. Fifty thousand spiritual stones? Bah!”
Under everyone’s suspicious gazes, Ye Xuan walked towards the carriage. The spirit stones immediately piled up into a small mountain, almost blinding everyone’s eyes.
They didn’t expect that getting a slap in the face would come so quickly. The people who said this earlier wished they could find a hole in the ground to hide in.
Looking at their dumbfounded expressions, Ye Xuan wanted to use this method and effect to shock everyone. After all, squandering required a high profile. What’s the point to be prodigal if there were no spectators?
The old man hurried over to take a look. There were definitely fifty thousand spiritual stones, and even more than that. The way he looked at Ye Xuan suddenly changed. This man could actually take out more than fifty thousand spiritual stones so easily, which showed that he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Everyone’s expression became extremely strange, complicated, surprised, and incredulous.
This person must be crazy! He had too much money and no place to spend it.
“Who is he? He actually took out fifty thousand spiritual stones without even blinking.”
“He must have a mine at home.”
“Which clan’s prodigal is he? I’m afraid that one cannot afford to spend like this even though one has a gold mine.”
Everyone’s eyes were either filled with envy or jealousy, and they all spoke in various ways, but none of these affected Ye Xuan. At this moment, he could be said to be the focus of everyone’s attention.
Even Han Yue couldn’t help but be attracted by the scene. To be more precise, she was attracted by the pile of spirit stones.
It was as if the fairy of the Moon Palace had finally been affected by feelings and emotions in the mortal world. Even her eyes seemed to be bright, and they were no longer as aloof and unapproachable as before.
She said directly, “You’re the distinguished guest! Sit at the elder’s table!”
Hearing this, everyone gasped. This guy was actually directly promoted from a disciple to an elder.
“Money talks. It seems that this is true. As long as you have spirit stones, there is nothing you can’t buy!”
Everyone couldn’t help but sigh. They didn’t know whether to say that Ye Xuan was too rich or that the position of elder of Tai Qing Sect was a bit too casual.
However, all is fair for Ye Xuan and the sect. They had no position to say anything.
Ye Xuan’s cultivation wasn’t high, but he had so many spirit stones with him. In addition to his behavior, the only thing left that he didn’t do was to write the words “cash cow” on his face.
Just as everyone’s thoughts were wavering, Ye Xuan felt that it wasn’t enough and dropped another bombshell.
“What if it’s five hundred thousand spirit stones?”
Five hundred thousand! They didn’t even dare to think about what kind of price it was.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open. It was clearly a busy street, but the scene was terrifyingly quiet. Everyone’s expression was the same, and time seemed to be frozen in this place.
The mocking words were stuck in their mouths. Thinking back to Ye Xuan’s behavior just now, it made them lose face and no one dared to say anything even though they didn’t believe it.
Even Han Yue and the old man lost their composure, but Han Yue reacted quickly and said, “If you can really take out five hundred thousand spiritual stones, you will be the next sect master!”
“Sect master, this kid is only a level 2 Human Realm cultivator,” the old man beside her couldn’t help but say.
Han Yue’s face was expressionless. She looked otherworldly, but the words she said were very different from her looking.
“If he can take out so many spirit stones, I’ll even say the same to a mortal who hasn’t even drawn Qi into his or her body, let alone someone at Human Realm. However, if this kid is joking or lying to me, I...”
Han Yue’s eyes were extremely cold, “I will make him regret being here.”
Everyone was in an uproar. Five hundred thousand for a sect master!
