Behind Ge Ye, Yun Leng stared at the scroll in Ge Ye's hand, his eyes gleaming.

The Misty Cloud Sect elders behind him also wore strange expressions.

They had all been present and had witnessed the bizarre scene of Ge Ye smashing the Jar, as well as the conversation between Ye Yun and Ge Ye.

A high-grade Xuan-tier combat technique had been hidden inside that broken Jar?

And this Jar seemed to have something to do with the young man before them.

A strange light flashed in his eyes as Yun Leng walked directly over to Ge Ye and asked in a deep voice, "Ge Ye, what is going on?"

"Is the scroll in your hand really a high-grade Xuan-tier combat technique?" As he spoke, Yun Leng's gaze remained fixed on the scroll in Ge Ye's hand.

Feeling Yun Leng's gaze, Ge Ye's heart tightened.

Could the Great Elder have taken a fancy to the scroll in my hand?

As the Great Elder of the Misty Cloud Sect, whether in status or strength, Yun Leng was naturally far beyond a mere outer sect steward like him.

If the other man truly harbored ill intentions, he likely would not be able to keep this scroll.

With that thought, Ge Ye hurriedly explained everything that had just happened.

He calculated that if the Great Elder also obtained something good, he probably would not covet the scroll in his hand.

With that in mind, Ge Ye recounted everything that had happened to Yun Leng in full detail.

After Yun Leng and the other Misty Cloud Sect higher-ups heard Ge Ye's account, they were immediately stunned.

One Jar cost one hundred thousand Gold Coins?

There were treasures hidden inside the Jars?

The Sect Master had just opened a Divine Pill capable of increasing one's cultivation by thirty years?

Remembering how Yun Yun's cultivation had surged just moments ago, allowing her to break through directly into the Dou Zong realm—

Yun Leng and the others were shaken, and immediately believed Ge Ye's seemingly unbelievable words.

Then, Yun Leng looked at Ye Yun with burning eyes. He directly took out three hundred thousand Gold Coins from his Storage Ring and said grandly, "Little brother, I want to buy three Jars!"

Yun Leng's heart burned with excitement. Since Yun Yun could open such a Divine Pill, couldn't he do the same?

Seeing Yun Leng make a move, the Misty Cloud Sect elders behind him finally came to their senses. They hurriedly took out their Gold Coins and called out to Ye Yun.

"Little brother, give me a Jar too!"

"Give me two as well!"

"I want some too..."

The Misty Cloud Sect higher-ups eagerly took out their Gold Coins and placed them on the counter, then looked at Ye Yun with expectant expressions.

Unfortunately, Ye Yun merely shook his head helplessly and directly rejected this wave of business. "Sorry, the shop is already closed for today. Everyone, please leave."

In truth, Ye Yun also wanted to continue trading, but he had run out of stock.

The system only supplied five Jars per day.

Today's quota had already sold out completely.

"Cl-closed?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Leng froze on the spot and blurted out, "No, little brother, we've already come all this way. How can you turn customers away like this?"

"That's right, little brother. We've already taken out the money. Just sell us a few Jars."

"Little brother, you understand the principle of paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, right?"

The Misty Cloud Sect elders behind him chimed in as well.

After learning that both Yun Yun and Ge Ye had obtained good things from the Jars, the Misty Cloud Sect higher-ups had become extremely curious about the Jars Ye Yun was selling.

But now, Ye Yun suddenly said the shop was closed and that he would not sell any more.

Naturally, they did not feel good about it, nor could they accept it.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Ye Yun helplessly shook his head. He then pointed at the wooden shelf beside him. "To be honest, everyone, all of today's stock has sold out. There's really nothing I can do."

"Sold out?"

"This..."

Hearing this, Yun Leng and the others were dumbfounded.

Thinking of the Divine Pill Yun Yun had just opened, as well as Ge Ye's high-grade Xuan-tier combat technique—

They suddenly felt as if they had lost several hundred million in an instant.

At that moment, Yun Yun stood up while holding Nalan Yanran and said to the elders, "Since the boss has said he is out of stock, all of you should leave."

As she spoke, Yun Yun glanced at Ye Yun, her heart filled with deep wariness.

When she had exchanged a move with Ye Yun earlier, Yun Yun had failed to probe his strength, but she had not thought much of it.

After all, he looked so young. Even if he was powerful, how powerful could he be?

But after opening treasures like the Advanced Experience Pill, the Light Spirit Boots, and Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin from the Jars, she no longer dared underestimate Ye Yun.

In her heart, she had even come to regard Ye Yun as an exceedingly terrifying existence.

After all, other than a peerless expert, who could produce so many miraculous treasures?

Now that Ye Yun had announced the shop was closed while the Misty Cloud Sect elders continued to chatter on, Yun Yun feared they would anger him. That was why she could not help but stand up and urge them to leave.

Upon hearing this, Yun Leng and the other elders were all unwilling to accept it.

If they had arrived just a little earlier, perhaps that heaven-defying Divine Pill would belong to them now.

At that thought, the Misty Cloud Sect elders all felt heartbroken.

"Little brother, are there really none left?"

"I am willing to raise the price. One hundred and fifty thousand Gold Coins per Jar. How about it?"

Yun Leng was unwilling to leave just like that. Clinging to a shred of hope, he felt that Ye Yun should still have some private stock.

"That's right, little brother. The price is not a problem. I'll offer two hundred thousand Gold Coins for one."

"I'll offer two hundred and fifty thousand Gold Coins for one."

"I'll offer three hundred thousand Gold Coins for one!"

In just a few words, the price soared to three hundred thousand Gold Coins.

Yun Leng: "..."

Yun Leng snorted coldly and swept his gaze over the crowd. With a domineering expression, he said, "I'll offer four hundred thousand Gold Coins for one!"

These elders were all high-ranking members of the Misty Cloud Sect. They usually lined their pockets quite well, so naturally, they were not short on money.

Of course, in their eyes, if they could also obtain treasures like Yun Yun's, then no amount of money would matter.

After all, such Divine Pills could not be bought with Gold Coins.

Even if they only opened a high-grade Xuan-tier combat technique like Ge Ye's, they still would not lose out.

In short, in their eyes, this deal was guaranteed profit with no risk.

Watching these people go crazy, Ye Yun's mouth twitched slightly.

Damn, they're actually bidding against each other now!

Shaking his head, Ye Yun could only say helplessly, "If you are interested, come early tomorrow. There are only five slots."

"There will be more tomorrow?"

Hearing Ye Yun's words, the Misty Cloud Sect higher-ups were immediately shaken, and joy appeared on their faces.

Ye Yun nodded. "This shop will remain here for three days. I hope everyone makes good use of this opportunity."

"Three days..."

"Boss, isn't that far too short?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Leng wore a warm smile. "Little brother, why not stay here a while longer? Since you have come to our Misty Cloud Sect, we should at least have the chance to show you some hospitality."
