Chapter 317 - Green Jade Stone
Indeed, in less than an hour, Tang Huan and Wu Yixian each received a pass to the "Tools Method Temple". Within the medallion, a number was branded onto each medallion.
Wu Yixian's was twenty-one, Tang Huan's was thirty-six.
When the two of them walked out of Divine Weapon Pavilion, there were already not many people outside. On the other hand, the houses that belonged to the Divine Weapon Pavilion were still bustling with noise and excitement, and from time to time, a large number of people would come and go.
"Brother Tang Huan, farewell." Wu Yi Xian suddenly cupped his hands towards Tang Huan with a smile.
"Oh, Brother Wu, farewell."
Tang Huan was startled, and cupped his hands towards Wu Yi Xian in respect.
Wu Yi Xian smiled at Tang Huan again before floating away. His smile looked rather strange, as if he had been relieved of a great burden, but also as if there was a sense of mischief and schadenfreude contained within it. This caused Tang Huan to be confused, and he was a little surprised.
While he was waiting for the order badge in the Divine Weapon Pavilion, Wu Yi Xian did not say anything, and Tang Huan did not say anything.
After the test, Tang Huan felt a strong sense of exhaustion, which made him not even the least bit interested. He just sat on the floor, meditating and recovering.
Now, his spirit had improved by a lot. However, Wu Yixian's actions caused him to feel quite puzzled. He could feel that Wu Yi Xian did not have any ill intentions towards him, at least for the time being. It was because of this that Tang Huan was puzzled by his actions just now.
After a moment, Tang Huan was too lazy to think about it anymore. He calmed his heart and followed the road in front of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.
After walking for more than a hundred meters, Tang Huan noticed that there were a lot of people behind him, whether it was in the light or in the dark. Regarding this, Tang Huan had expected this to happen, but he did not take it to heart. He was very clear that if his identity was exposed, his every move would definitely receive a lot of attention.
Tang Huan did not immediately return to his residence. Instead, he followed the bustling main road and headed straight to the southern part of Heavenly Forging City.
Roughly an hour later.
"I never thought that we would meet again so soon. Brother Tang Huan, please take a seat."
South of the city, on the roof of the Star Sea, the purple-clothed woman with a face covered by a veil looked at Tang Huan who was walking in with large strides.
"So it's Lady Xing Yan."
Tang Huan's eyes flashed with surprise, and immediately after, his face revealed a smile, and he sat cross-legged on the praying mat in front of him.
Back then, when the Star Ocean Commerce was hosting the "Phoenix Spirit Martial Meeting" at Feng Ming Mountain, he had seen this purple-clothed woman before. However, Tang Huan's understanding of her was limited to knowing that his name was "Xing Yan".
Just now, Tang Huan had arrived at the side of this Starsea Gem Store and was invited by the shopkeeper to come here. He said that someone wanted to see him.
What surprised Tang Huan was that the person who wanted to see him was this mysterious woman called Xing Yan.
From Tang Huan's perspective, this Xing Yan's position in the Star Ocean Commerce should be extremely respected. Otherwise, Lei Ming and the others would not follow her orders. What he saw now confirmed Tang Huan's guess. This Starsea Restaurant was the headquarters of the Star Ocean Commerce. To be able to live on the roof of this Starsea Tower, Xing Yan's identity was evident.
"Brother Tang Huan, I heard that you want to buy a large amount of high level gems?" Xing Yan's eyes moved, the smile between his brows became even wider.
"Exactly."
Tang Huan nodded and smiled, "Miss Xing Yan, I wonder how many high grade gems that are worth more than two hundred thousand gold?"
"There are always a thousand." Xing Yan laughed, "How much does Brother Tang Huan need?"
"All of them." Tang Huan said without the slightest hesitation.
"All of them?"
Hearing this, Xing Yan could not help but be startled, there was some doubt in his eyes, "Brother Tang Huan, are you planning to take them all away later?" She had never seen anyone buy so many high grade gems at once, not even Divine Weapon Pavilion.
"That's right."
The corner of Tang Huan's mouth curled into a faint smile, and he took out two stones the size of duck eggs from his bosom.
"Saint rank demon essence stone?" Xing Yan cried out, a look of shock flashing across her eyes, obviously she did not expect Tang Huan to take out such a treasure.
"Two Saint rank 'Demon Essence Stones'. Can I exchange it for a thousand high-grade gems like that?" Tang Huan said with a smile.
"One is enough."
Xing Yan came back to her senses and blinked her beautiful eyes a few times. "Brother Tang Huan, those high-grade gems that you need can basically be bought with gold coins, but these Saint-rank 'Demon Essence Stones' are priceless treasures. "If you sell it at the auction, even if it's 300 million or 400 million gold coins, there will probably be people who want it. After calculating it, if you exchange it for high-grade gems with 'Saint Ranked Demon Essence Stones', our Star Ocean Commerce will have a huge advantage over you."
"If Miss Xing Yan feels apologetic, then there's no harm in taking note on my behalf and whether or not you can find three 'Desolate Jade Rocks'." Tang Huan laughed heartily and placed one of the Holy-ranked "Demon Origin Stones" in front of Xing Yan, while the other holy-ranked "Demon Origin Stone" was placed in his bosom.
Using a Holy-ranked 'Demon Origin Stone' to exchange for a high-grade gem, Tang Huan had no choice but to do so.
The last "Phoenix Stone" had already been eaten by Xiao Budian yesterday. If he did not prepare some rations for it, Xiao Budian would starve by the time he entered the "Tools Method Hall". After all, he did not stay in the "Tools Method Hall" for only a day or two, but thirty-six days.
"Green Jade Rock?"
Xing Yan raised his brows, and then, a look of understanding flashed past his eyes, "This' Desolate Jade Stone 'is an extremely high quality water attribute gem, and its effects are not inferior to the' Heavenly Wood Stone '. Brother Tang Huan, you want to use the' Desolate Jade Stone ', I presume that you plan on using it to level up your weapon?"
"Miss Xing Yan really has sharp eyes."
Tang Huan chuckled.
It would not be an easy thing for a high-quality weapon to advance to a higher level.
The most difficult part was finding a suitable gem. Tang Huan had used the "Phoenix Stone" and "Heavenly Wood Stone" to forge the "Dragon Phoenix Spear". If he wanted to advance, he needed to use a high-grade water attribute gem, and its effects couldn't be inferior to the "Heavenly Wood Stone".
If he failed to advance, the Spirit Map inside the spear would definitely be severely injured, and by then, the entire spear would be ruined.
"The 'Green Jade Rock' and the 'Heavenly Wood Stone' are the same. They are both extremely rare."
Xing Yan muttered to himself, "In the past five years, our Star Ocean Commerce had only moved two 'Green Jade Rock' last year. According to my knowledge, other merchant guilds rarely came across a jade-like stone as well. But, Brother Tang Huan need not be anxious, I will send down orders tomorrow and let the various branch organizations investigate the situation, but I cannot guarantee that I will be able to find it, after all, 'Desolate Jade Stone' is too rare. "
"Regardless of whether or not I can find it, I still have to thank Miss Xing Yan."
