The Ten-floor Trading Area

"Hm?"

Hearing the soft female voice beside him, Yang Yu instinctively turned toward it.

When he saw the woman in the purple qipao, he visibly paused.

"A shopping guide from the Ten Thousand Layers Tower?" Yang Yu asked in confusion.

"Sir, my name is Mi Ke. I'm one of the shopping guides for the cultivators' shopping area on the thirty-second floor. Our cultivators' shopping area spans ten floors, starting from the thirty-second floor. Each floor sells different supplies, and the higher you go, the more luxurious and rare they become!"

"Sir, are you here to sell or to buy?"

"I can offer you some recommendations based on your needs."

Whoosh~~~~~~~~~

Just then, a cool breeze blew from the air conditioner, leaving everyone feeling refreshed and at ease, their minds settling into tranquility.

Mi Ke's voice was soft and sweet, making her instantly likable.

After finishing her string of explanations, she watched Yang Yu intently, waiting for his answer.

It did not matter whether Yang Yu was selling or buying.

As long as a transaction took place, she would receive a commission on any deal she handled.

Moreover, transactions between cultivators generally involved staggering sums, so her commissions were exceptionally generous... On deals worth several million or tens of millions, earning a cut of tens of thousands or over a hundred thousand was easy.

Mi Ke was not a cultivator. She was just an ordinary person.

To her, that money was already a fortune.

Ordinary people who could work at the Ten Thousand Layers Tower all lived quite comfortably.

Aside from having to remain loyal to the Ten Thousand Layers Tower, there were hardly any other requirements.

"Are buying and selling handled in separate trading areas?"

"There are another ten floors starting from this one?"

"If I need to sell some Mortal Shedding Treasures, along with antiques and valuables from the ordinary world... which floor should I go to?" Yang Yu asked after a moment's thought.

He was new here and knew little about the rules inside the Ten Thousand Layers Tower.

He had been feeling somewhat troubled about that.

Mi Ke's appearance, however, had completely put those concerns to rest.

He had to admit that the Ten Thousand Layers Tower provided excellent service, with every aspect taken into consideration.

"Selling? Mortal Shedding Treasures?!" Mi Ke's eyes immediately lit up.

Even the lowest-grade Mortal Shedding Treasure would sell for no less than five million yuan!

And Yang Yu had just mentioned that he apparently had some antiques as well.

An order involving both antiques and Mortal Shedding Treasures?

That had to be worth at least ten million!

A big client!

Mi Ke's attitude changed immediately, and her voice grew even sweeter and softer.

She had to handle this carefully.

If she served Yang Yu well, she would earn hefty commissions!

She could already see it coming.

There were so many shopping guides here. Although the commissions from cultivators buying everyday supplies were decent, those orders were usually worth only a few hundred thousand to a million at most. With everyone competing, opportunities to land a major order worth several million or tens of millions were few and far between.

Now that she had finally encountered one, Mi Ke was thrilled.

"Sir." Even Mi Ke's voice trembled. "Ordinary antiques and valuables can be traded right here on this floor. Just choose one of the clearance dealers in the northern sales area. Ordinary antiques are easy to sell... but I'll need to ask a little more about the Mortal Shedding Treasures. The trading area I recommend will depend on their grade. May I ask what grade of Mortal Shedding Treasures you wish to sell?"

"Depending on their grade, Mortal Shedding Treasures can be sold in the trading areas from the thirty-second through the thirty-seventh floor."

"Likewise, Mortal Shedding Treasures available for purchase, from inferior to supreme grade, are generally concentrated on those floors. Higher floors cater specifically to more powerful cultivators. Above the thirty-seventh floor, the number of treasures in the trading areas drops sharply, but most are on the level of transcendent items."

"Those who buy such things are at least Heaven Tier experts. Occasionally, even experts at the level of an innate being appear!"

Mi Ke's explanation was clear, organized, and easy to understand.

After listening, Yang Yu nodded. "I see. Understood."

"The Mortal Shedding Treasures I want to sell aren't high-grade, just some inferior- and ordinary-grade ones... Recommend somewhere for me. I need to sell all my ordinary antiques first. There are quite a few, more than thirty in total."

"More than thirty antique treasures? And you're selling more than one Mortal Shedding Treasure?" Mi Ke's eyes shone as she listened, even though Yang Yu had said his Mortal Shedding Treasures were only inferior and ordinary grade.

At this point, however, Mi Ke no longer cared about that. Most other cultivators only sold inferior-grade Mortal Shedding Treasures anyway.

And selling even one at a time already counted as a sizable order.

Yang Yu was selling not just one Mortal Shedding Treasure, but several, including ordinary-grade ones, along with a large number of antiques... With such an enormous order falling into her lap, Mi Ke could not possibly be dissatisfied.

Mi Ke hurriedly said, "Sir, please follow me. I'll take you to the trading location right away."

"This way!"

With that, Mi Ke turned like a purple butterfly and led the way.

Her qipao fluttered, its slit revealing her fair thighs... Her swaying hips lent a distinctive charm to her walk, making her especially, irresistibly alluring.

In subtle ways, Mi Ke was trying to seduce Yang Yu.

Yang Yu was so young, yet so lavish with his money.

Mi Ke considered herself quite attractive, so naturally she wanted to try flirting with him... After all, he was a cultivator, and a young, wealthy one at that. If she could establish a connection with Yang Yu, her life would change even more dramatically.

A lifetime of wealth and luxury would go without saying!

Plenty of shopping guides even flirted with middle-aged and elderly cultivators, let alone someone like Yang Yu.

That was reality.

Money, power... all of it was enough to swallow people's hearts and change so many things.

There were far, far too few people in this world who could remain true to themselves and never waver.

Naturally, Yang Yu would not fall for Mi Ke's advances. Having obtained the insect civilization inheritance, how lofty had his outlook become?

His powerful life soul had also greatly strengthened his self-control against all kinds of **.

Thus, although Mi Ke did everything she could to ** him, even repeatedly exposing herself for him to see, Yang Yu merely regarded it all as a free feast for the eyes. None of it stirred him.

Zhao Zixuan back home was also a campus-beauty-level stunner, and he was utterly pure, never having been tainted by society as Mi Ke had.

Even with someone as beautiful as him, Yang Yu could maintain complete control and remain unmoved.

Much less with someone like Mi Ke.

Soon, the two crossed the enormous plaza and arrived directly in front of a row of shops to the north.

Mi Ke led Yang Yu to a clearance dealer named Treasure Acquisition.

Along the way, Mi Ke had tried every trick she knew.

Yet Yang Yu had shown no reaction at all.

Mi Ke looked at Yang Yu with a hint of resentment, her voice tinged with disappointment as she said, "Sir, this shop is one of the clearance dealers on this floor. You can hand your antique treasures over to them, and they'll appraise and purchase them."

"The price may be somewhat lower, though."

"After all, they're antiques from the mundane world and aren't much use to cultivators in their cultivation... Selling them here saves you unnecessary trouble, and the shop can buy a large quantity in one go, but the price will probably be around ten percent below market value."
