Seeing the Purple Gold Token in Ye Yu's hand, the expressions of several guards changed. They bowed to Ye Yu and said, "Mr. Ye, please come in."
"What are you doing? Don't you understand what I'm saying? I said kick him out!" Ye Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, then said angrily.
Seeing Ye Qingxuan like this, one of the guards frowned and said, "Second Princess, stop being unreasonable. While the Great Yan Royal Family is our partner, it doesn't mean they can make things difficult for an elder of our Lingyun Pavilion."
As the words fell, Ye Qingxuan pointed at Ye Yu with disbelief and said, "You're saying this good-for-nothing is an elder of your Lingyun Pavilion?!"
"Watch your mouth!" The guard's face turned cold, and the other guards behind him also surrounded them, looking at Ye Qingxuan coldly.
Ye Qingxuan and the other person immediately shut their mouths and glared fiercely at Ye Yu.
In Qingzhou, the Great Yan Dynasty might hold considerable sway, as it wasn't called the strongest dynasty for nothing.
However, when facing a merchant guild like Lingyun Pavilion, which spanned three provinces, the Great Yan Dynasty's influence wasn't enough.
For minor matters, Lingyun Pavilion might give some face, but when facing an elder of Lingyun Pavilion, it was a different story.
Sensing their hostile gazes, Ye Yu had no intention of explaining and turned to enter the venue.
Back then, the Great Yan Dynasty had just ended its internal strife, and its people's livelihoods and economy were on the verge of collapse.
Lingyun Pavilion initially looked down on such a Great Yan Dynasty. It was only because Ye Yu had a good relationship with Elder Ziyun of Lingyun Pavilion that Elder Ziyun gave him an Elder Token.
Only then did Lingyun Pavilion agree to cooperate deeply with the Great Yan Dynasty, raising the overall economy of Great Yan to a higher level.
"You scoundrel! Fine, I'll see what you can buy today!" Ye Qingxuan gritted her teeth and followed Ye Yu inside.
Seeing them leave, the guard captain hurriedly ran upstairs to inform the manager of this branch.
The venue in the Great Qin Capital was not comparable to Great Yan's.
After agreeing to cooperate deeply with Great Yan, Lingyun Pavilion established its Qingzhou headquarters in the Great Yan Imperial City and held an auction every month.
This attracted countless powerhouses from Qingzhou to attend each month.
As a result, the fame of the Great Yan Imperial City continued to rise, followed by various commercial exchanges.
Ye Yu walked around the venue. This time, he was here to purchase some medicinal ingredients for refining the Poison Dispelling Pill.
The barbaric secret realm he was going to visit in a few days was surrounded by dense miasma. Ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivators would get lost, and even be poisoned.
Ye Yu was naturally not afraid; no matter how potent the miasma was, it couldn't compare to the Nine Nether Blood Qi. However, Qin Ruoxian was different, and it was always good to be prepared.
Soon, Ye Yu arrived at a counter. He glanced at the Purple Dawn Fruit on display and intended to buy it. When he patted his pocket, he froze on the spot.
He had forgotten to bring the spirit stones Qin Wushuang had given him.
"Um, shop assistant, can I get this on credit? I'll send someone to deliver the payment later." Ye Yu touched his nose and asked awkwardly.
The shop assistant sized Ye Yu up and then said, "No, if you need..."
However, before he could finish speaking, a sneer sounded from behind him. It was Ye Qingxuan who said, "I thought you would gain something by coming to Great Qin, but it turns out you can't even afford a few thousand spirit stones."
"How about it? Isn't Great Yan better? Come back with me, help me heal, and all the spirit stones in this bag are yours!"
After speaking, Ye Qingxuan shook the Cosmos Bag in her hand.
Ye Qingxuan had always known Ye Yu was greedy. She just didn't expect Ye Yu to be in such dire straits. Otherwise, she would have used spirit stones to get him to return long ago.
Ye Yu rolled his eyes speechlessly and said impatiently, "Why haven't you left yet?"
"Once this opportunity is gone, it won't come again. I'm telling you, there are as many as a hundred thousand spirit stones in this Cosmos Bag!" Ye Qingxuan suppressed her anger and tempted him.
When Ye Yu served as Crown Prince, he would investigate even the slightest shortage of spirit stones in the treasury. In Ye Qingxuan's opinion, this proved Ye Yu's greed, pettiness, and lack of magnanimity.
After all, the Great Yan Dynasty's treasury contained tens of millions of spirit stones.
Yet, on that occasion, Ye Yu had punished three high-ranking officials over a single spirit stone.
Before Ye Yu could speak, the shop assistant couldn't stand it any longer and said coldly, "Esteemed guest, are ten thousand spirit stones a lot? This gentleman possesses an Elder Token from our Lingyun Pavilion and can freely use items worth up to thirty million spirit stones."
"The reason I refused Mr. earlier was not because he wanted credit, but because this gentleman doesn't need credit!"
As the words fell, the surrounding people were immediately astonished.
Lingyun Pavilion was truly wealthy and powerful, freely allowing the use of items worth up to thirty million spirit stones?
Immediately, everyone looked at Ye Yu with envy. The total value of items in this Lingyun branch in the Great Qin Capital did not exceed thirty million spirit stones.
Doesn't that mean Ye Yu could directly clear out the entire place?
Let alone others, Ye Yu himself was secretly surprised. He hadn't expected the token given by Elder Ziyun to have such a function.
Ye Qingxuan and the other person's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Although the Great Yan Dynasty was strong and its treasury was full, its annual income was only eight million spirit stones, and it was declining.
Yet, Ye Yu could freely allocate thirty million spirit stones, more than ten times what they had combined.
"If that's the case, please prepare two sets of everything on the list for me. As for the spirit stones, I will send someone to deliver them later." After speaking, Ye Yu took out a list and handed it to the shop assistant.
The shop assistant quickly took it and eagerly went to get the items.
Soon, all the items were gathered. Ye Yu turned and left Lingyun Pavilion, but Ye Qingxuan and the other person stubbornly followed him. Only when Ye Yu entered the Imperial Palace did they stop.
"Second Sister, what should we do?" Ye Qingxuan asked, looking at Ye Yu's retreating figure.
Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, "We'll just wait here. I don't believe the Great Qin Royal Family can do anything to an outsider like him. One day, he'll remember the goodness of Great Yan."
"Let's go, we'll go back to the inn and go through the footage on the image recording stone. I don't believe we won't find dirt on this good-for-nothing!"
Ye Qingshuang nodded upon hearing this, realizing it was the only option for now.
Upon arriving at the inn, Ye Qingshuang set up several restrictions before once again infusing spiritual energy into the image recording stone. The scene reappeared before the two of them.
The image froze on the scene of Ye Yu being sent flying, then continued to play.
Inside the Eastern Palace, Ye Yu was covered in blood and soon lost consciousness. Shortly after, a tall figure clad in golden armor entered.
The two recognized this person: it was Yan Ji, the commander of the Great Yan Golden Armored Guards!
Ye Qingxuan frowned. Although the Golden Armored Guards were founded by Ye Yu, Yan Ji was Ye Xuan's confidant. Yet, he now appeared in the recording.
A thought immediately arose in her mind.
Could it be that Yan Ji was Ye Yu's spy planted by Ye Xuan's side?!
