Chapter 157 – Enormous Wealth
(Mustang: Hey guys, this is another Regular Chapter.)
Bi Fan’s party walked past the noisy pedestrians, who were making a lot of noise with their chattering and giggling, while their shadows were flickering on the busy street.
The Tao Bao complex was located in the central district of the Jiu Yu City, and wasn’t very far away from the tournament’s venue.
Since the contest had already ended, most of the young disciples were moving towards the Tao Bao complex, under the guidance of their seniors, since they all wanted to experience this shopping area’s magnificence.
Along the way, Bi Fan saw several young disciples from various sects, but most of them weren’t looking very hospitable, and didn’t bother to smile back at him.
“Look, there’s a Ba Gua Sect group over there, and even Li Qian Xun is with them.” Ji Ying Lan pointed.
Jing Feng said: “Li Qian Xun is very powerful, and you must be very careful if you run into him. In fact, I’d say that you should even consider conceding the fight before it starts, since there’s a lot of hatred between our sects, and you must be aware of his heavy weapon….”
“Yes, the Quinyang Sect has a lot of hopes from you, and it’s very important that you grow strong someday. So, you need to look after yourself.” Yan Yu Si added to Jing Feng’s advice.
Directly conceding a fight is a very shameful thing, even when there’s threat to life. Even though killing other contestants is prohibited in the contest, but since the participants are allowed to use weapons, avoiding causalities can be a tough task sometimes.
Each round normally ends with some injuries, especially when hostile Sects are paired against each other, since they sometimes try their best to eliminate hostile competition.
Bi Fan party was looking at Li Qian Xun, and Li Qian Xun felt their gaze, which is why he turned around to look back at them.
Li Qian Xun exposed a withered smile, a very ugly one at that.
Then, without any further action, he continued to walk with the rest of the Ba Gua Sect group.
Jing Feng said: “This Li Qian Xun seems like a very mean guy, we must be cautious against him.”
“The Ba Gua Sect must have been training him in secrecy for a long time now.” Mo Nan sighed.
“Not necessarily though, he may have just come up recently like Brother Bi Fan, and could be a real genius as well. Whichever the case might be, he’s going to be a tough one to match up to.” Jing Feng analyzed.
“What are we afraid of? If the Ba Gua Sect has Li Qian Xun, then our Quinyang Sect has young Bi Fan, and young Bi Fan can easily beat Li Qian Xun.” Wang Yun Fei smiled.
They reached the Tao Bao complex very quickly, and Bi Fan was quite overawed to find himself standing in front of a ten storey building.
Lin Qing Yao said: “The Tao Bao complex’s first two floors are designed for selling your items, and for purchasing items pertaining to the ‘Fetus’ layer. If you want to enter the third floor, then you must be at least inside the ‘Emerging from the Womb’ layer.”
“In other words, we can only buy items on the first two floors.” Bi Fan was a little disappointed. “I didn’t know that, what’s the best grade of weapons that we can buy on the first two floors?”
“The second floor has high grade weapons, and you can buy them there. The items which are on the second are usually in very high demand at the time of the Jiu Yu Lists, and we will not be able afford any of them….”
“We’ll just look around casually, buy if you fancy an item and you aren’t carrying enough spar at the moment, then you can call me, and I’ll buy it for you. We can always settle our accounts at a later time.” Yan Yu Si said with a smile.
“Thank you sister!” the outer disciples and the two girls were very happy.
Bi Fan said: “I don’t know where to sell the bodies of the Devil’s Abyss demons. I have a few of them, and I also want to sell some other items.”
“I’ll take you there; I also have some things that I want to sell.” Jing Feng said.
Yan Yu Si said: “We are going to the second floor, and you can join us over there later.”
The Tao Bao complex had a specialized staff for acquiring new items, and this department was separate from the sales department.
Once Jing Feng and Bi Fan entered the department, they were both received by different people, and were taken to different rooms.
The Tao Bao complex’s management did so in order to maintain confidentiality.
No matter who is selling the items, or what items are being sold, the Tao Bao Complex always helped their customers in maintaining confidentiality, even if they weren’t interested in the item.
“Dear guest, what would you like to sell?” Even though Bi Fan is quite young in age, the Tao Bao complex’s staff didn’t neglect him.
