The Auction

After leaving Mingxin Xuan, Jingyue Sha recalled what had just happened, still unable to contain her excitement. "Yi Yun, how did you know about that secret recipe?"

She had no recollection of how angry she had been to Yi Yun earlier. Yi Yun had just given Mingxin Xuan and Princess Hongyi a resounding slap in the face, which made Jingyue Sha feel triumphant. Yi Yun's counterattack was incredibly satisfying.

"Moon Sand!"

"The Lord of Pure Moon Island said angrily."

Jingyue Sha stuck out her tongue, realizing her rudeness, and corrected herself, "Sect Leader Yi... how did you know about the Danxin Sect's secret recipe? Does eating the dishes from Mingxin Xuan really affect one's life potential? How could they be so bold?"

Although Mingxin Xuan is backed by the Mingxin Xuan Danxin Sect, its guests, such as Princess Hongyi, also have considerable backgrounds. Now that this news has spread, countless people will seek redress from Mingxin Xuan.

Yi Yun smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that serious. The impact on life potential is very small. But that's not important. Even a tiny bit would be enough to shut Mingxin Xuan down. As for that secret recipe... I just happened to see it while reading a book."

Jingyue Sha scoffed inwardly. That was a secret recipe of the Danxin Sect. Even if the pill wasn't particularly potent, it was still a secret recipe. How could it be so easily found in a book?

Moreover, although Jingyue Sha didn't understand alchemy, she could tell from Alchemist Zhang's reaction that Yi Yun's technique was exquisite. How could he have such a profound understanding of a pill formula that he had just casually glanced at?

However, since Yi Yun didn't say anything, Jingyue Sha couldn't do anything about him. But her eyes darted around, and she realized she had misjudged Yi Yun; it seemed Yi Yun did possess some formidable abilities.

"I'll find out sooner or later," Jingyue Sha thought to herself.

"Young Master Yi, you still need to be careful. The Danxin Sect has a deep foundation. If we offend them, we must be on guard," said the Lord of Pure Moon Island.

"Hmm." Yi Yun nodded, indicating that he would have noticed even if he hadn't been told.

"The trade fair is in a few days. Young Master Yi, why don't you join me?" the Lord of Pure Moon Island invited.

Although anyone with enough wealth can participate in the trade fair, those who attend are often powerful figures who control prestigious sects, and some are even rare old monsters.

Yi Yun's cultivation level was limited after all. To trade with them at the trade fair, he needed to have sufficient strength. She needed to take good care of Yi Yun. As a young boy, Yi Yun was like a little white rabbit falling into a pack of wolves at such a grand event.

"That would be perfect." Yi Yun smiled slightly.

This trade fair was the main purpose of Yi Yun's visit to the Tiannan Peak Summit.

He had already compiled a list of materials. Since the Tiannan Peak Summit had gathered so many famous figures from various sects, they should be able to help him with some of the materials.

Over the next few days, Jingyue Sha invited Yi Yun out for a stroll every day, and they explored almost the entire city.

Despite Jingyue Sha's attempts to subtly probe, she still couldn't glean anything from Yi Yun. Yi Yun seemed to have reverted to the infuriatingly arrogant Sect Leader of the Myriad Gods, and no matter how Yi Yun Jingyue Sha looked at him, she couldn't discern any ability in alchemy from him.

During this period, the city was in turmoil. One after another, sect leaders and patriarchs arrived in this city, some with great fanfare and impressive entourage, others alone but with overwhelming aura.

Many other geniuses from various sects also gathered here with their elders.

The grand occasion of the Tiannan Peak Summit is gradually unfolding.

In addition, another significant matter is that Mingxin Xuan, an old shop that has been operating in Yunze City for tens of thousands of years, has aroused public anger. In recent days, many disputes have arisen around Mingxin Xuan, and in the end, Mingxin Xuan was even shut down and forced to cease operations.

There were many conflicting opinions about this. People heard that Mingxin Xuan had closed down because of a problem with the food at a birthday banquet hosted by the princess in red. However, when people who attended the banquet were asked to describe what happened, most of them gave vague accounts and refused to mention what the problem was with the food—no one wanted to gossip about eating excrement.

However, secrets never stay hidden forever, and people gradually learned some of the inside story. Moreover, it was said that the person who verified Mingxin Xuan's dishes was a mysterious young man, and it could even be said that it was because of this person that Mingxin Xuan went bankrupt.

Mingxin Xuan was a well-known and influential restaurant in Yunze City, so the fact that Mingxin Xuan could bring it down aroused the curiosity of many people.

"Sect Leader Yi." The Lord of Pure Moon Island arrived at Yi Yun's residence and spoke.

Yi Yun walked out of the door, dressed in a simple White Robe, his long black hair tied up with a jade belt and draped down his back. He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his cultivation aura was restrained, he did not look like a martial artist, but rather like a handsome young master from the mortal world.

Behind him followed Zuo Yan Xiaoyu. Ever since Yi Yun decided to grant her and Murong the treatment of core disciples, Zuo Yan Xiaoyu had diligently cultivated, and her cultivation level had increased. Her beautiful face had gradually become even more stunning, with skin as smooth as jade. She stood gracefully behind Yi Yun, obedient and adorable.

Behind the Lord of Pure Moon Island was Jingyue Sha. Today, Jingyue Sha was elegant and serene, like a fairy from the moon palace, untouched by worldly dust. Upon seeing Yi Yun, she greeted him with great courtesy.

"Sect Leader Yi."

Yi Yun glanced at Jingyue Sha strangely, only to hear Jingyue Sha transmit her voice, "My master instructed me to be careful with my words and actions, and forbade me from leaving her side even for a moment, otherwise she wouldn't have taken me with her."

So that's how it is... Yi Yun chuckled to himself. It turned out that Jingyue Sha had been pestering him to go to the trade fair and had made a three-point agreement with the Lord of Pure Moon Island.

Jingyue Sha's voice transmission continued in Yi Yun's ear, "I'm going there to broaden my horizons, Yi Yun. My master said that although you know some alchemy techniques, you should restrain yourself in such a place. Taking a step back in the face of trouble will open up a whole new world. The Tiannan Great World is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and that trade fair is an even more dangerous place."

"I understand." Yi Yun nodded. He knew that Jingyue Yin was a low-key person and was worried that his group would suffer losses, which was why he gave her this warning.

"Sect Leader Yi, let's set off now." The Lord of Pure Moon Island said with a smile, seemingly completely unaware of the telepathic communication between Yi Yun and Jingyue Sha.

Yunze City is a super city in the Tiannan Great World, magnificent and vast. Even if an ordinary person walked for several months, they might not be able to walk from one side of the city to the other.

On a mountain peak north of Yunze City, a spectacular sight of dazzling light suddenly appeared today. Amidst the rosy glow of the sky, the pavilions and towers of the Immortal Terrace were faintly visible through the clouds and mist.

Celestial music filled the air, and every now and then, Spiritual Beast pulling huge carriages carrying people flew in, or spirit boats with beautiful Maidservant standing on them, surrounding powerful figures sitting inside.

At this moment, a Giant Turtle descended from the sky, parting the clouds and landing on the mountain peak. Its back was covered with exotic flowers and rare herbs, exuding an ethereal aura, and it was building a magnificent palace.

"It's Prince Yi's arrival!"

Several figures immediately rushed out from the mountain peak to greet them.
