Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 392: Chapter 392: The Trading Firm [Part 1]

Facing Xia Liu and Lin Xiaotian’s laughter, Ouyang Lingtian felt a chill run down his spine, and the bone-piercing cold made him shiver.

In the days leading up to the auction, Xia Liu redeployed his plans.

Tie Shan and Glasses continued to protect in secret, while Mark transformed into the head of security, responsible for the group’s internal security operations.

The close protection of the girls fell to Bai Lili.

Since Bai Lili also wanted to integrate more quickly into the world outside Immeasurable Island, she learned to work alongside the other ladies.

She was now at the primary level of Qi Cultivation, practicing Spirit Arts every night after dual cultivating with Lin Xiaotian.

Bai Lili’s current strength could be said to be extremely formidable.

If she had to compare herself with warriors, she firmly believed that if she went all out, she could definitely kill an Earth-Rank Primary-Level Warrior.

As Earth-Rank Warriors weren’t very common, having Bai Lili personally protect Fang Fei and the others was enough.

Of course, Lin Xiaotian would also coordinate from the outside.

That’s right, Xia Liu left him in Hejing.

No matter how much Lin Xiaotian pestered Xia Liu, he didn’t bring him along.

On one hand, it was a consideration of the girls’ safety; not leaving a super expert here made people feel uneasy.

On top of that, for this trip to Yanjing, Xia Liu had a vague feeling that something might happen.

And since Lin Xiaotian was willing to entrust his life to him, Xia Liu absolutely couldn’t allow him to take the risk.

Taking advantage of the time left, Ouyang Lingtian clung to Xia Liu, asking him to personally instruct in the practice of Spirit Arts.

Unfortunately, Ouyang Lingtian was only at the primary level of Qi Cultivation, and his storage of Spiritual Energy was not abundant.

He practiced Spirit Arts for a few hours every day, with the remaining time spent absorbing nature’s spiritual energy to recover.

After five days of hard work, Ouyang Lingtian had indeed become promising; he had mastered the essence of the Immeasurable Sword Art.

At this moment, he could even vaguely condense Sword Intent, and he believed that once he broke through to the second level of Qi Cultivation, he would be able to condense Sword Qi to injure the enemy.

As for the other technique, Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow created by Lin Xiaotian, Ouyang Lingtian also learned it, but unfortunately, the technique was too complex, and its moves were based on the Energy Break Cloud of the Immeasurable Sect, so he didn’t master it immediately.

But he believed it wouldn’t take much time before he could perform Energy Depleted to Mystic Yellow.

What pleased Xia Liu the most was that Ouyang Lingtian had practiced the Taiyi Eight Trigrams Palm taught to him before leaving the Heaven Slaying Base to the Combat Rotation Stellar Shift Technique.

If he persevered for a month or so, Xia Liu felt that the guy could perform the Taiyi Ultimate Style, the Limitless Technique.

Five days allowed Ouyang Lingtian to progress quite a bit in the aspect of Spirit Arts, but unfortunately, his foundational cultivation level remained the same.

On the other hand, the girls had also tallied the liquid assets they could utilize.

Eight billion Huaxia currency.

This was the amount of liquid assets the Osmanthus Group could have after accounting for all possible contingencies.

In response to this, Xia Liu was not shy because an auction is precisely where money is needed.

Eight billion Huaxia currency, as Ouyang Lingtian would say, would probably be just enough to rank at the bottom at the auction site, and it was embarrassing to admit having such an amount to others.

Xia Liu was very satisfied with the money, as it was better than going empty-handed and having some face to save.

Finally, after settling everything, Xia Liu and Ouyang Lingtian boarded a plane to Yanjing City.

The early morning was cold, and a desolate autumn wind blew, bringing a chilling pleasure to the two people walking in the night.

“Xia Liu, there are two days left until the auction opens. If we don’t find Spirit Grass then, do we have any other chances?”@@novelbin@@

“Yes, the world is so big that as long as we keep running, opportunities will come our way, and we will be able to encounter Spirit Grass.”

“Pfft! What’s the difference between that and saying nothing?” Ouyang Lingtian almost stumbled and fell.

“You asked, so of course I have to answer,” Xia Liu said with a helpless, bitter smile.

If opportunities were everywhere, he wouldn’t be in such pain, and the remaining two Spirit Stabilizing Needles in his body would have been removed.

After all, having two metal-like substances embedded in one’s body was an uncomfortable feeling that only the person experiencing it could understand.

“Forget it, I’ll just prepare well in these two days.” After stifling his lament, Ouyang Lingtian waved down a taxi.

“There’s nothing much to prepare for, just wait for the time to come.”

“Alright, go back and rest up. Tomorrow I’ll take you to see the place.” Ouyang Lingtian could only be resigned to Xia Liu’s unfathomable strength. Let this guy do as he wishes, as long as he can get his hands on the Spirit Grass, that’s all that matters.

As the taxi came to a stop, Ouyang Lingtian led Xia Liu into a villa district.

This location could be considered part of Yanjing City’s downtown area.

Standing at the doorstep, one could see the bustling and lively downtown area of Yanjing City.

“Lingtian, your family really is rich. A villa in a place like this must cost a few hundred million, right?” Xia Liu spoke enviously as he looked at the spacious and lavishly decorated European-style villa.

“I don’t know about that, I never paid attention to it.”

“Damn! You’re really clueless. While you’re still young, you should start squandering your family’s fortune. Otherwise, you’ll regret it when you’re too old to enjoy it.”

“I’m not like you. What I’m pursuing is the ultimate path of the Martial Dao!” Ouyang Lingtian glanced at Xia Liu before leading him into a room and instructing him before leaving.

Facing the unfamiliar room, Xia Liu washed up and went to bed without any hesitation.

Right now, he was only interested in the Warriors Traders Guild, hoping for a surprise tomorrow.

The next day at noon, Ouyang Lingtian drove Xia Liu towards an auction for martial artists situated in the suburbs.

When the car entered an industrial area, Xia Liu became puzzled. Could it be that the famed Warrior Traders Guild was actually inside an industrial zone?

A few minutes later, he was completely baffled. Ouyang Lingtian parked the car in an inner-city parking lot surrounded by luxury cars, no doubt.

But what on earth was this environment?

It looked just like a large, ordinary electronics processing plant.

And no matter how you looked at it, their destination seemed to just be a workshop of a factory.

If Ouyang Lingtian hadn’t repeatedly introduced it as the trading hall, Xia Liu would have never believed it.

Xia Liu had managed many places abroad, like an Assassins Guild branch located in an extremely dilapidated area.

But that was the Assassins Guild, inherently shrouded in darkness.

Huaxia Warriors, on the other hand, were supposed to be upright and blatantly arrogant.

For the trading hall to be in such an environment was truly a bit frightening.

At the entrance of the workshop-like main gateway, two Mysterious Rank Warriors were intently focusing on their guard duties.

Seeing someone approaching, both guards immediately swept their gaze over.

After just one glance, they returned to their original positions, as their main job was to keep ordinary people out of this place.

Identifying a cultivator had become a skill for them, one glance was enough to determine whether a person was a cultivator or not.

Ouyang Lingtian didn’t greet them, and went straight through the main gate.

There was another smaller door after the main gate; pushing it open would lead to the Warrior Traders Guild.

As Ouyang Lingtian pushed open the small door, Xia Liu hadn’t yet seen the people or objects inside when he was greeted by numerous chaotic sounds.
