Among the eight barbarians, the oldest one in the middle, with white hair, spoke a few words in gibberish to the barbarians around him.

Finally, the white-haired barbarian looked at Li Yunjing.

"Great Qiu People... I... will... listen to... you."

The white-haired barbarian spoke a very broken, halting language, managing only a few words.

Although he spoke broken English, he could understand the common language, which made Li Yunjing smile.

They can listen but not speak; I think I was like that in my past life too.

Eight barbarians filed in and entered the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion.

Li Yunjing asked Shui Yao and Shen Chun to get some spiritual tea and spiritual fruit.

Subsequently, Li Yunjing also entered the treasure pavilion.

The farce ended, and the passersby who had stopped to watch dispersed to continue with their own business.

However, at that moment, Zhong Lan walked over from the street in the distance.

From afar, Zhong Lan could see a large crowd gathered around.

However, before Zhong Lan could get close, the crowd dispersed again.

Back in front of the Clear Wind Pavilion, Zhong Lan glanced at the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion across the street.

Looking at the signboard of the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion, Zhong Lan snorted.

He turned around and went straight into the Clear Wind Pavilion.

As soon as they entered, a disciple strode up to Zhong Lan.

His face showed anxiety and fear.

"Elder Zhong, those barbarians you entrusted to us have arrived."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Lan raised her eyebrows, clearly pleased.

"Where is she? Su, quickly take this elder there."

The disciple replied, "Elder Zhong, those eight barbarians went to the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion across the street."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Lan's vision went black.

"What did you say!?"

Zhong Lan reached out and grabbed the disciple's collar, her eyes blazing with fury.

The disciple inwardly groaned.

"Elder Zhong, please calm down. After those eight barbarians arrived, they went straight to the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion."

We were about to go up and talk to them when, unexpectedly, Sect Leader Luozhen suddenly appeared.

"While we were still discussing what to do, those eight barbarians followed Sect Leader Luozhen into the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Lan's anger intensified.

He simply reached out and pushed the disciple away forcefully.

The powerful force sent the disciple flying.

It crashed into the wall of the Clear Wind Pavilion.

A mouthful of blood spurted directly from the disciple's mouth.

The hall fell silent.

The disciples of the Clear Wind Pavilion and the customers who came here all fell silent.

Zhong Lan was, after all, at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage stage.

The force of her anger was something that the ordinary people in the hall could not withstand.

Fortunately, Zhong Lan restrained herself and did not stay in the lobby. With a gloomy expression, she quickly went upstairs.

However, none of the customers in the lobby dared to stay in the Clear Wind Pavilion at this moment.

They left quickly, fearing they would be implicated.

Upstairs, Zhong Lan paced back and forth.

She was thinking about how to bring those eight barbarians to the Clear Wind Pavilion.

But no matter how much she thought about it, Zhong Lan couldn't come up with a good solution because of her fluctuating State of Mind.

"Damn Li Yunjing!" Zhong Lan gritted her teeth.

It took Zhong Lan a lot of effort to make contact with those eight barbarians.

The eight barbarians came from the Hundred Yue Mountain in the southern part of Flying Immortal Prefecture.

They were from a large tribe within the Hundred Yue Mountain.

The Hundred Yue Mountain contain many rare treasures.

Even in the entire Flying Immortal Prefecture, some treasures can only be found in the Hundred Yue Mountain.

This attracted many monks from other places to venture into the Hundred Yue Mountain.

However, the Hundred Yue Mountain were the settlement of the barbarians, and many barbarians settled there.

In addition, the Hundred Yue Mountain are rife with poisonous miasma and teeming with ferocious beasts and birds of prey.

Finding treasure in the Hundred Yue Mountain is not easy.

On the contrary, the barbarians themselves could easily obtain all kinds of treasures.

Zhong Lan wants to expand the scale of the Clear Wind Pavilion.

Originally, after purchasing Myriad Treasures Pavilion,

Then contact the barbarians of Hundred Yue Mountain to acquire treasures from them.

Then they sell them through their own Clear Wind Pavilion platform.

Zhong Lan had already made the estimate.

This could multiply Clear Wind Pavilion's profits several times over.

As long as we maintain stable cooperation with the barbarians.

Earning Spirit Stone is as easy as drinking water.

Moreover, barbarians do not easily cooperate with others.

I spent a lot of Spirit Stone to smooth things over with many people.

This led to contact with a peaceful barbarian tribe.

Zhong Lan originally intended to use this barbarian tribe,

To establish a positive image among the barbarians.

This would encourage other barbarian tribes to establish cooperation with the Clear Wind Pavilion as well.

Who would have thought that the plan would fall through before it even started?

The barbarians went to the Luozhen Treasure Pavilion.

If those barbarians were to cooperate with the Luozhen Sect...

Then I'm just doing all the work for the Luozhen Sect!

"No, no, barbarians don't cooperate easily. Li Yunjing can't handle those barbarians," Zhong Lan comforted herself.

Luozhen Treasure Pavilion

The disciples of Luozhen served each of the eight barbarians a cup of spiritual tea.

The eight barbarians stared at Lingcha, wide-eyed.

Clearly, they don't know what this is yet.

Li Yunjing smiled and explained a few things to the eight barbarians.

He then picked up the spirit tea and took a sip.

The eight barbarians did as instructed, and immediately their eyes lit up. They drank the spirit tea in one gulp, completely ignoring the heat.

After they finished drinking, several barbarians also said the same thing in their own language, looking quite shocked.

Li Yunjing quickly instructed his disciples to bring more spiritual tea.

After the eight barbarians finished drinking the spiritual tea, they touched and looked around, clearly very curious about everything around them.

Li Yunjing looked at the white-haired barbarians and asked them why they had come here.

The white-haired barbarian remained silent for a long time, seemingly pondering how to express himself.

After a while, he stammered as he explained the situation.

Although the words used were few, the meaning conveyed was complete.

By referring to the context and guessing for himself, Li Yunjing could understand most of it.

They knew the eight barbarians had come to sell things.

Li Yunjing's eyes immediately lit up.

Li Yunjing was also aware of the reputation of Hundred Yue Mountain.

"May I ask your name?" Li Yunjing said with a smile.

The white-haired barbarian pointed to himself and uttered a single word.

"Pan."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Pan." Li Yunjing cupped his hands in greeting.

The barbarian named Pan's cultivation level was not discernible.

As far as Li Yunjing knew, the cultivation methods of the barbarians seemed to be somewhat different.

However, judging from the aura faintly emanating from Pan...

Li Yunjing felt that the person's cultivation level was similar to his own, so calling him a fellow Daoist was appropriate.

"Since Fellow Daoist Pan is here to sell things, and this Luozhen Treasure Pavilion happens to belong to me, if Fellow Daoist Pan's goods are of high quality, I can purchase them."

Upon hearing this, Pan communicated with the barbarians around him in their barbarian language for a while.

Finally, Pan looked at Li Yunjing with a serious expression.

"Good."

Pan directed the other barbarians to take out the goods they were carrying.

The other barbarians then took out a small bag made of animal hide.

The small bag looks somewhat rough, and the workmanship is average.

Simply sew it up with needle and thread.

But once opened, many items could be taken out of the bag.

This is also Storage Bag.

Despite its rough workmanship, it's Storage Bag.

Several barbarians took everything out of the animal hide Storage Bag at once.

Piled on the ground, the entire room was instantly filled with Spiritual Qi.

Li Yunjing's eyes widened slightly.

None of those things on the ground are simple.

"Earth Spirit Fruit, Cold Iron, Fallen Star Gold... Hiss, there's even a Demon Core!"

It is said that Hundred Yue Mountain is rich in natural resources.

Li Yunjing finally understood why.

These things are rarely seen in Xunxian Town.

For example, the Earth Spirit Fruit doesn't grow at all around Xunxian Town.

Earth Spirit Fruit can be consumed directly.

It can help cultivators overcome the obstacle of a minor realm.

For example, the premium Earth Spirit Fruit.

This can help Qi Refining cultivators advance from the early stage to the middle stage.

Higher ages can also help Qi Refining cultivators advance from the middle stage to the late stage, and even from the late stage to the perfect stage.

More importantly, the Earth Spirit Fruit has no side effects.

This effect will occur simply by consuming it.

The Earth Spirit Fruit on the ground is a Grade Two fruit, effective for Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Other materials such as Cold Iron and Fallen Star Gold,

It is also a rare and valuable item.

Li Yunjing was tempted.

It just so happens that Luozhen Treasure Pavilion about to open.

With these items, Luozhen Treasure Pavilion will be able to gain a firm foothold.

More importantly, it is essential to cultivate good relations with the barbarians.

Li Yunjing wanted a long-term partnership, not just a one-off event.

If we can establish a long-term partnership with the barbarians.

Luozhen Treasure Pavilion has thus acquired a hen that lays a continuous stream of golden eggs.

Upon realizing this, Li Yunjing's gaze towards Pan became fiery.
