Chapter 49: The Round Moon Chamber of Commerce

  Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat as he really couldn't think of how Shitou Village had such a history, his heart moved:

  "Is Dahua Xian Emperor very powerful?"

  "Even the 'Devouring Emperor' who entered the Daluo Xian Emperor's grand formation with the Stone Technique would have to exhaust all his strength to escape, don't you think the Daluo Xian Emperor is formidable? In the realm of the Stone Technique, although the 'Devouring Emperor' has devoured many stone techniques, they are still far inferior to the Daluo Xian Emperor's 'Daluo Heavenly Book'. You little brat have been extremely lucky to have encountered this!" The greedy old man's tone was filled with undisguised envy!

  Xuanyuan took a deep breath, and his body trembled slightly as he repeated:

  "Old man, I will definitely not disappoint your expectations!"

  Shi Long was very satisfied, he had always known that the "Mahārāja Sutra" was extremely profound and could be compared to many supreme immortal techniques. However, no matter how hard he tried throughout his life, he could only grasp its surface meaning. Now that he was an old man on the verge of death, with his lamp about to burn out, it would be best if Xuan Yuan could accept it.

  Shi Long handed the "Dà Luó Tiān Shū" directly to Xuán Yuǎn's hands, then Shi Long clasped his hands together in a seal, and from his body, a massive surge of Dou Qi was emitted, dispersing into the ground. Suddenly, nine boulders the size of human heads rose up from the ground, suspended in mid-air.

  Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed in surprise:

  "What is this?"

  "I don't know, but I only know that these nine stones contain boundless power. With my current strength, I am completely unable to unleash their power. Xuan Yuan, you must remember, until you have reached a certain level of strength, do not attempt to crack open these nine stones, or else it will bring about great disaster. This was the last words left behind by the savior of our Stone Village, who departed with this warning." As Shi Long's voice fell, his turbid eyes became even more dim, and he coughed out a few more mouthfuls of blood. If Xuan Yuan had not been supporting him, he would have already collapsed to the ground.

  "These are the nine rare stones, Xuan Yuan. You little brat has become rich now. These nine rare stones must have been left behind by Da Luo Xian Emperor. The things hidden inside the stones he left behind are absolutely priceless treasures. Damn it! How did you little brat get so lucky!"

  The greedy old man let out a jealous roar, but soon regained his composure and said slowly:

  "It's not surprising, though. Da Luo Xian Di destroyed the Pre-Heavenly Ancient Mine and left these as compensation, which is only right. The people of Shi Village regard him as a lifesaver; if they knew it was Da Luo Xian Di who destroyed the Pre-Heavenly Ancient Mine, causing the loss of heavenly spiritual energy, which made their bloodline weaker with each generation, I wonder what they would think?"

  "Xuanyuan, kneel down and pay your respects to me as your master. This way, you can also be considered a disciple of mine, Shi Long's lineage will not be completely cut off." Shi Long said with great effort.

  Xuanyuan looked at the old man in front of him, didn't say much, and directly knelt down to Shi Long, kowtowing three times.

  Watching Xuan Yuan's meticulous movements, Shi Long burst out laughing:

  "Alright, alright... The incense of our Shi Village will not be extinguished after all. I, Shi Long, am ashamed before our ancestors, but this is all I can do... Xuan Yuan, rise..."

  Just as he said this, Shi Long's body fell straight down and he couldn't say another word...

  Nine stones that were originally driven by the Stone Dragon's aura also fell directly from mid-air to the ground. Xuan Yuan's heart sank, and he didn't say anything else. Yan Ziyun moved her lips, but still couldn't say anything.

  Silently, he buried the body of Shi Long, then after knocking his head a few more times, Xuan Yuan put those nine human-head-sized stones into the Dou Ring and left Shi Village.

  Black night, a piece of ink black, the eyes of a lone star in the night, shining with eerie light, rushing all the way, hurrying on.

  "Xuanyuan, what are you planning to do next?" Yan Ziyun sat behind Xuanyuan, her hands tightly wrapped around his body, her face pressed against his back, and asked softly.

  "Last month, Tiancheng's 'Dragon Reward and Punishment Platform' was cleaned up, and after Dong Xuan's mansion was searched and seized, I went to the 'Dragon Immortal Mansion'. As for Yan Ziyun's actions, Xuan Yuan didn't think much of it, along the way, they were all tired and leaning on each other, which was normal. As for what he said, Xuan Yuan had no intention of hiding anything, his goal was indeed the 'Dragon Immortal Mansion', only in a place like the 'Dragon Immortal Mansion' could he have the opportunity to meet Yin Zhenluo, otherwise, he was really too far away from Yin Zhenluo."

  Yan Ziyun let out a soft sigh, not saying anything more. Two people with different fates couldn't walk together. At this moment, Yan Ziyun's strength could only look up to Xuan Yuan. Some words she couldn't say out loud, and could only be deeply hidden in her heart.

  Xuanyuan to Yinfengluo, isn't Yanziyun to Xuanyuan the same? It's just that Xuanyuan chose not to give up, struggled hard, and fought for it, while Yanziyun chose to be quiet, buried in her heart, and looked up.

  A peaceful night.

  Moon Palace

  Yuè Tiān Chéng is the main city under Yuè Yuè Dòng Tiān, which has jurisdiction over ten sects including Yuè Huá Mén, Xīng Huá Mén and Rì Huá Mén, with extremely strong power.

  The Moon Sky City gives people a feeling of unparalleled grandeur, with city walls as high as thirty meters, built from giant moon-colored stones. At the city gate stands a powerful warrior guarding the entrance.

  The flow of people coming and going is thousands of times more densely packed than in Moon Flower City.

  Xuanyuan and Yan Ziyun rode on a giant wolf, extremely eye-catching, attracting the attention of many people. The key was that they were covered in bloodstains, chaotic, emitting a bloody smell.

  Yan Ziyun saw more people and stopped hugging Xuan Yuan.

  The two people went straight into the city. Yuetian City was a place that Yan Ziyun had been to several times, so she was more familiar with it than Xuan Yuan. Led by Yan Ziyun, they arrived at the Round Moon Chamber of Commerce.

  This guild is the Round Moon Cave Heaven's guild, and all those who enter the Moon Heaven City to sell various elixirs, weapons, equipment, fighting stones, crystals, talismans, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures must go through the Round Moon Guild. It directly monopolizes all transactions in the Moon Heaven City and is one of the main sources of income for the Round Moon Cave Heaven.

  Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce, a total of five floors, each floor is built with a very solid stone, on the top of the Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce building, a round moon symbol is hung high.

  Xuanyuan and Yan Ziyun arrived at the entrance of Yuan Yue Shanghui, the gate was extremely wide, with eight doorkeepers standing on either side of the gate, all of whom were at the level of a Dou Shi. The strength of Yuan Yue Shanghui could be imagined, as even Dou Shi-level individuals were only guarding the door.

  Xuanyuan and Yan Ziyun had just stepped onto the steps of Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce when they were immediately intercepted by two gate guards. The two gate guards furrowed their brows, saying:

  "What kind of people are you? Do you think the Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce is a place where anyone can just walk in? You're dressed in tatters, dirty and smelly, do you want to look for trouble with us?"

  Xuanyuan and Yan Ziyun only then realized that they had already become very worn out from the great battle at Hong Ri's demonic cave. Their entire bodies were covered in filthy blood, and later when they arrived at Shi Village to bury its people, while digging graves, it was unavoidable that their bodies would be stained with dirty mud. After a long time, the smell naturally wouldn't be good, but since many things had been weighing on them along the way, they hadn't had the leisure to notice these things.

  "Looks like you're some kind of hunter from who-knows-where, thinking that just by defeating a few magical beasts you can join our Moon Circle Guild? How laughable. Come back after changing into something clean." Another guard started mocking him, filled with disdain.

  "Heh, why don't we go in and change into some proper clothes?" Xuan Yuan was very calm, being looked down upon by others had long since become a normal occurrence for him. When he was a beggar, he had seen too many of these disdainful looks. But Yan Ziyun felt very uncomfortable and said:

  "Don't be too arrogant, we're going in, and you can't stop me!"

  "Hey, is our Yuan Yue Chamber a place where you can come and cause trouble as you please?" Just then, a man with an extremely pale complexion, wearing a white robe, gave off the feeling of being elegant and refined, like a jade tree in the wind.

  A man with an extremely pale complexion appeared, and the eight martial artists guarding the entrance of the Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce hastily bowed their heads in respect.

  "You've seen Xiao's Fangyuan young master."

  Xuanyuan's gaze fell on Fangyuan with a hint of malice, his voice cold as he said:

  "Guests are coming, are you going to refuse them at the door?"

  Fang Yuan smiled and said:

  "It depends on what kind of customer it is. Customers like you, who are dirty and evil, will only ruin the business of Yuan Yue Shang Hui. If not, then forget it!"

  Yan Zi Yun said in a cold tone:

  "What if we have no choice?"

  "Then you can try, dare to take a step forward, and I'll have someone break your dog legs." Fang Yuan sneered with a smile, completely not putting Xuan Yuan and Yan Ziyun in his eyes.

  Yan Ziyun took out the 'Moonlight Master Token' from her hand and laughed angrily:

  "I am the inner door's eldest disciple of the Moon Flower Gate, and the next candidate for the gate master is you, Yuan Yue Shanghui. You should also consider carefully how much profit our Moon Flower Gate brings to your Yuan Yue Shanghui every year!"

  Seeing the "Moonlight Master's Order" in Yan Ziyun's hand, Fang Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and the other eight guards also changed their faces, but they had already mounted a tiger and couldn't get off now. Fang Yuan coldly snorted:

  "What's with that getup, looking like a beggar? What qualifications do you have to enter our Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce? People as filthy as you are not welcome in our Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce."

  In the midst of their conversation, a crowd had already gathered around, pointing and snickering at Xuan Yuan, Yan Ziyun, and Gu Xing, seemingly finding them ridiculous.

  Xuanyuan didn't expect Yan Ziyun to reveal her identity, and yet Fangyuan still had this attitude, shouting sternly:

  "Daring, Fangyuan, aren't you afraid of being severely punished? I, Huahua Gate's Feng Lie, was ordered by the young master to go to Hongri Demon Cave to besiege the demon clan. After a bloody battle, we entered our own city gate, but even wanting to buy some medicine to treat our wounds was rejected. What a big nerve you have, Yuan Yue Dong Tian!"

  Fang Yuan's face immediately turned ugly upon hearing Xuan Yuan's words. Feng Lie Gongzi went to Yue Hua Men to issue a decree, attacking the Hong Ri Demon Cave was something that many people knew about. Originally, this should have been done by Yuan Yue Dong Tian, but because it was in the jurisdiction of Yue Hua Men, they had mobilized people from there instead.

  "I'd like to see who dares to break my leg, whoever dares to hit us is hitting the face of Feng Lie Gongzi, don't blame us for not warning you." As soon as the words fell, Xuan Yuan and Yan Zi Yun, Gu Xing immediately walked into the Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce.
